turning her head to go down the steps, a carriage suddenly rushed over. The coachman pulled on the reins a little late, almost bumping into Young Miss Wan'er's maid.The maidservant, young and frighten...As expected, the transmigration expert still favored her. Seeing her struggle so hard and in such a miserable state, he compensated her with the most needed artifact right now!

She casually picked a tender young cabbage leaf and threw it into her mouth. The sweet, rich taste of the cabbage made her even more delighted.

This nursery not only accelerates growth, but perhaps also has the effect of evolving and enhancing.

Here, the seedlings cultivated are of much higher quality than local fruit even if they experience some decline upon being planted elsewhere.

And the three words "much better", that's the confidence of becoming wealthy...

Without mentioning how Jia Yin struggled in the space or how the villagers encouraged each other, they began to build their new home little by little.

Upon arriving in Xindu, Mrs. Cui and Mr. Wen went straight to a secluded mansion in the southern part of the city.

Wen Hai had already made inquiries and sent a letter in advance.

So, when the two entered, the elderly person they wished to see had been waiting for a long time.

Then Mrs. Cui immediately knelt down, "Uncle, oh oh, Jiner has finally met you!"

The old man with white hair, helped her up and his eyes turned red too. "Come on, Rou'er, don't cry, you're alive, that's all that matters, Uncle will take care of everything else."

Jinerou stood up, took her grandfather's arm, and tears streamed down her face like a spring.

Although she calls him "Big Uncle," this old man isn't surnamed Cui, but Liu.

Mr. Liu and his father were childhood friends, studying and taking imperial examinations together. They served in the court together and eventually reached high positions. They were sworn brothers of a different sex.

Mr. Cui was simply too straightforward, and his scholarly temperament made him too proud. His way of doing things inevitably offended people. In the end, he couldn't stand the political infighting in court and chose to resign. He died young as well.

On the contrary, Mr. Liu was shrewd and tactful, a skilled diplomat. He spent over twenty years in court, not only reaching the position of Minister of State but also retiring smoothly and returning home to enjoy his old age. His family prospered greatly.

Mr. Liu gently patted his niece's back and looked at her carefully, his eyes filled with concern. "Child, you've suffered. It's good to be back, everything will be alright with your uncle here."

Liu's eldest son, Liu Ziheng, and Mr. Wen both offered comfort, and the crowd went into the house for a moment.

Mr. Liu was unusually anxious and blurted out, “The war came suddenly. We were told to move the capital immediately. Everywhere is in chaos with soldiers everywhere. I had your elder brother go to Duke Dingbei’s residence to inquire about you. Duke Dingbei said that you died from illness. What on earth is going on”

He glanced at Mr. Wen again, "How come you're walking with your senior brother"

Mrs. Cui wiped her tears and took a deep breath, "Uncle, I want to divorce, please make the decision for me!"

"Divorce" Both Master Liu and his son were astonished!

Early spring sunlight spilled onto the steps in front of the door, and a breeze that hadn't quite warmed up also crept into the house, bringing with it gossip...

Soon, Liu Ziheng went out and invited two old gentlemen over within half an hour...

Inside the Dingbei Hou Mansion in Dongcheng, the new Houfu (Hou's wife), Jiao Shi, was lightly massaging her temples. Her own mother sat before her, tears streaming down her face.

"Hui'er, you have to think of a way for your younger brother. He's been humiliated this time, the blow is too great, he's been locked up in his room for several days without eating or drinking. The Marquis loves you so much, can you please tell him and ask him to..."

Then, as he was speaking, a wizened old woman burst in, gasping for breath, "Madam, madam, the mistress has returned!"

"What's this talk about" The mother and daughter both couldn't understand. The midwife, perhaps realizing her slip, added loudly,

"Madam, the previous madam who died of illness has returned, and she brought several guests with her. The Lord Hou has already gone over, you should go and see as well!"

The deceased mistress!

At that, Master Jiao turned pale. Mrs. Jiao, however, flew into a rage and stood up, shouting, "You despicable Fu Qirong! You dare to deceive our family! Isn't your wife deceased How could you have another wife!"

Jiao Shi's head was also buzzing. After thinking for a moment, he left his mother behind and hurried to the front.

The entire front courtyard of the Hou Mansion was now packed with old servants, all casting furtive glances towards the hall from time to time. Their expressions were all peculiar: some were uneasy, some surprised, but most bore a deep-seated Schadenfreude hidden beneath their eyes.

Jiao rushed into the room and saw a beautiful and elegant woman seated in the main position, while the Marquis beside her face was as black as ink.

"My Lord, what is this What do you mean 'my wife has returned' I am your lawfully wedded wife!"

The Duke of Dingbei was not yet over forty, handsome and imposing in appearance. But at this moment, his opening words were a harsh reprimand.

"What are you yelling about, stand still!"

Having said that, he turned to Lady Cui on the side and said.

“Jinerou, that day was too chaotic. This marquis thought someone from the family had gone to the other courtyard to pick you up. But it wasn't until I reached Jiangnan that I realized I had left you behind. You haven’t appeared for half a year, and this marquis guessed that even if you hadn't fallen victim to barbarian hands, you were probably disgraced and wouldn't come back. So I told everyone that you died of illness, protecting your reputation. Then I married Jiao Shi. Unexpectedly, you would return today.”

This is truly shameless. Before Madam Cui could even speak, Old Master Liu had already smashed his teacup.

"Fu Qingrong, you so-called martial hero, are shamelessly brazen! You abandoned your wife during the escape and now remarried while blaming everything on Jinrou. You're worse than a beast!"

Another old man also nodded, his face turning red with anger.

"When Grand Tutor Cui betrothed his daughter to you, you swore on your honor to treat her like a precious jewel. Yet now, you act in this manner! How can you live up to Grand Tutor Cui's kindness How can you repay Jinrou’s unwavering love for you Such ingratiitude – how could you possibly be entrusted with the vital task of defending the Jinsha River We will submit a joint petition against you tomorrow!"

Dingbei Hou's eyes flashed, his fist clenched inside his sleeve, and his heart was filled with resentment.

Originally, he had already calculated carefully. By marrying a woman from the Jiao family and gaining support from the local powerful clan, he could advance further in court.

Never did I expect that everything would be going so well, only to have the rug pulled out from under me all of a sudden!

He suppressed his irritation as much as he could, softening his tone. "Jinerou, I was wrong earlier. In order to protect the Emperor and Empress Dowager's southward journey, I truly didn't consider your safety. But now that things have come to this, why don't you... emulate Ehuang and Ying from the Jiao family Regardless of seniority, all become concubines. What do you think You like tranquility, don't you Leave the affairs of the mansion to the Jiao family, and you just go live in the villa outside the city..."

Mrs. Cui burst into laughter, her voice laced with disdain. She spoke again, leaving no room for argument.

“Fu Qingrong, the last regret of my life is disobeying my father and marrying you, a ungrateful villain! It’s a shame that you have a good-looking face, but you are actually a useless person. You are very good at climbing up using your father-in-law's name!”

"Presumptuous!" Marquis Dingbei was stabbed in the lung, and could no longer feign composure. He raised his hand to strike.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Cui was faster. She slapped first, the sound echoing loudly.

Ding Beihou was stunned and forgot to fight back for a moment, only to be slapped twice by Cui's wife.

Joe shrieked and lunged forward, "You dare hit my master, I..."

Mrs. Cui kicked her directly in the stomach, causing her to fall into Dingbei Hou's arms and preventing him from fighting back.

Mrs. Cui had red eyes, full of hatred!

"Fu Qingrong, do you think I'm still Cui Jinerou who was abandoned to fend for herself in the annex I've been to the Hall of Yama once, and now I'm just waiting to drag you down there too and let you taste what it's like!"
