In just a moment, Fu and his son were slapped until their faces were as swollen as pigs.

Zhao Surui raised his head, looked at the inconspicuous house and the closed door in front of him, and waved to the Tong brothers:

"Drag these two people into the street, look for a gong, explain clearly how these two people were favored by the Chu family in the past, how they betrayed their trust later, and now they have posted it when they see people get up again, so that the neighbors can Everyone in the neighborhood knows who these two are."

After listening to Mrs. Shen's instructions, Tong Wuyi was so happy that he grabbed Fu Chengyuan with his big palm and dragged him out.

"Yeah!" Fu Chengyuan was beaten until blood came out of his mouth, and he couldn't speak clearly. The green silk cotton robe on his body had rolled up and lost its shape. He heard that he was going to be dragged to the street, but he didn't know where it came from. With so much strength, he put his hands and feet on the ground and struggled hard again.

The prince's sweetheart was about to go out, so Si Shu, who had just failed his errand, naturally followed him in person. It was really unbearable when they met. He winked at one of his pleasant-looking subordinates, and the man hurriedly came forward. smile apologetically:

"Mrs. Shen has a noble body, why should he be exposed to such villains? You give him to us, and we will keep him and take him outside Yanjing City, and never dare to come back."

Zhao Surui raised his eyes and glanced at this person, then curled his lips:

"To make them afraid to come back? Who are you to deal with such villains for the Chu family? Chu Jiyuan hasn't returned to Beijing yet. First, let him have the reputation of colluding with eunuchs? I can only handle this matter. I did it for my Aunt Yao."

Shen Sanfai wanted Chu Jiyuan to return to the capital to reorganize the treasury. If something went wrong at this point, it would also cost him Emperor Zhaode's face.

Zhao Surui came to pay homage to the Yao family just to reconnect with the Chu family, so that he could control the progress of the treasury rectification.

Otherwise, he would be so full that he would come to deal with the smelly and hard Chu Jiyuan?

He told Shen Sanfei that it was for the sake of connections, but it was just to make Sanfei Shen angry. As for Chu Jiyuan, who has been an official for twenty years and his family is cleaner than a mouse hole, what does he need his connections for? Waiting for those poor scholars to line up. Do you want to write a memorial memorial for Shen Sanfai?

He already knew that there was someone behind the door.

Chu Jiyuan, actually came back today? Just in time for this?

I haven’t seen him for more than a year. Chu Jiyuan is much older than before. He is only in his fifties, and his beard and hair are already mostly white. He has a long face, thin eyebrows, and slightly raised eyes. Compared with Shen Shao, who is famous for his good looks in both the government and the public, he is more refined and elegant. Li Congyuan has an average appearance and average demeanor, but he also shows an overwhelming intelligence.

The man laughed at the side: "How can you, a woman, make a fuss about going back to your parents' home even if you don't get what you want? Just follow your husband home as soon as possible. Cover yourself with a quilt. Why can't you get over it?"

When they got closer, Li Congyuan got off the carriage first, then turned back to take Mi Xinlan's hand.

The person who thought he meant well was still laughing.

Inside the door, Chu Yuanjin's hand had already been placed on the door latch, but he just left it there.

Zhao Surui laughed angrily and interrupted Chu Jiyuan directly: "Master Chu, these two people brought people to your door with bad intentions, and you actually invited them in? You are really..."

Getting up from the ground, Chu Yuanjin hugged Chuiyun's arm, his eyes aching from crying long ago.

….

Chu Jiyuan hurriedly took two steps forward. He could see clearly the appearance of the woman in front of him. He let out a sigh of relief, but the next moment, his brows wrinkled again:

"Niece of the Shen family, you shouldn't abuse lynching, how can you frame others like this?" He turned to look at Fu Chengyuan again, "Zhuo Xin, why did you come to my house?"

Chu Yuanjin shouted anxiously: "He has taken possession of my dowry and wants to fight us to death!"

"Ha! These servants of mine are vicious and specialize in hunting down little devils. I brought them to see Aunt Yao off, which can be regarded as a guard of honor for Aunt Yao, so that there will be no such low-level things on the Huangquan Road to disturb her. As for what you said Housework..."

"Niece of the Shen family, you have been well-educated since you were a child, why do you suddenly hit people in the street like this?"

In the Fu family's woodshed, she suffered day after day without food or water. Just when she thought she was going to die in the Fu family

, the door of the woodshed was suddenly opened.

Zhao Surui took a step forward and looked behind the door again.

"Niece of the Shen family, how can you speak so viciously? My wife is gone..."

Just when Chu Jiyuan felt that the young woman in front of him looked familiar, another tall man got off the carriage behind him, still muttering:

"Assaulting someone in the street and causing injuries is punishable...Little Ah Qing? Why are you here? Then you, didn't you say you were imprisoned in Zhuangzi by the Xie family?"

"Niece of the Shen family, you just drive people away for this kind of thing. Why do you need to cause such a fight? Although the Fu family and his son are not related to my family by marriage, they are all..."

He raised his chin and looked at the Fu family father and son who were struggling and howling like ghosts, refusing to be dragged away.

Secretly curling his lips, Zhao Surui looked at Chu Jiyuan with his head raised.

Another carriage came slowly at the entrance of the alley.

Fu Chengyuan's eyes were about to burst and he screamed:

"Chu Yuanjin! Come out! Are you going to watch them humiliate your husband like this?!"

Being called "niece" by Chu Jiyuan, Zhao Surui couldn't help but grind his molars. He had known that he would read the almanac before going out today. Unexpectedly, he first met a pair of flies and his son, and then encountered a stone in a cesspit, or... …Two pieces!

"I have been educated and educated since I was a child? I am not educated and educated just to be polite to such beasts." Zhao Surui spoke arrogantly against Shen Shiqing. Chu Jiyuan always found a way to make him angry with just one sentence, "Master Chu, these two people originally You insulted the Chu family sister, divorced your wife when the Chu family was in trouble, and now she comes to harass you. Every time I see such a despicable person, I feel like they owe me a beating. What? I can’t fight anymore? "

"Well said! Happy!"

Thinking that her Aunt Shen, who had been dead for several years, would go to this extent for her, she burst into tears as she had not cried since her father's accident, and quickly gave all the money to Fu Chengyuan.

After being captured and brought back to the Fu family, Chu Yuanjin was imprisoned. In order to prevent her from escaping again, Fu Chengyuan even refused to let her see Su Er.

After being criticized by "Shen Shiqing" with a gun and a stick, Chu Jiyuan's brows were still furrowed:

The Fu family's ancestral home is in Baoding Prefecture, not far from Yanjing. She had some broken silver hidden on her body and wanted to find a carriage that would hit the road and return to Yanjing at first light.

"Miss Chu, come with me quickly. The father and son of the Fu family were left behind by their aunt today."

….

Chu Yuanjin waited for a moment with joy and gratitude in his heart, and it was Fu Chengyuan who was waiting for him.

Fu Chengyuan said quickly:

After traveling to the southwest for a year, I became older and thinner, but my annoying energy still grew?

"What are you doing? Humiliating people like this in public?"

"For villains like them, not only do they have to be hurt, but their skins have to be peeled off, and their rotten hearts and intestines are shaken out in front of others, so that they don't dare to enter the Chu family's door again. Otherwise,

This family is so shallow. On weekdays, Chu Jiyuan has to go to the Yamen as an errand. What if they come to make trouble again? In this way, people can see their faces clearly, and it can also save the Chu family some trouble."

"She is really the niece of the Shen family?"

As the saying goes, Chu Jiyuan is what he is talking about.

"Niece of the Shen family, I don't need anyone else to comment on the Chu family's housework. If you come to worship your wife, you can go in too. Look at the ferocious appearance of your servants. Look at yourself. You are not even half a lady.

appearance?"

"You have spent your wife's life working hard to fulfill your reputation of being honest. Now that you are back in Beijing, don't you have to set up a memorial for yourself that says you keep your word? That's right! You can exchange it with your daughter's life.

With some good reputation, you, Chu Jiyuan, can become a saint!"

"yes!"

If Zhao Surui felt a slight tremor in his heart when he first saw Chu Jiyuan's old and thin appearance, it would have disappeared long ago.

She thought she could go to Beizhen Fusi to meet her father in exchange, but she didn't expect that Fu Chengyuan actually used the money to buy a house and land outside, and the father and son even built an outhouse!

Thinking about it afterwards, Fu Chengyuan had already

I have made up my mind to divorce her, or simply let her die, I am just waiting for an opportunity.

But after dawn, when she was buying buns for Su Er, she was seen by someone. That person was a neighbor of the Fu family and had always been kind to her. He heard that she was going back to Yanjing and said he could find a carriage for her.

But it's definitely not fear.

Only then did their mother and daughter escape.

Across the door, Zhao Surui followed the sound and saw the long-bearded scribe getting off the green leather carriage. The corners of his eyes jumped first.

Hearing this voice, Chu Yuanjin took a deep breath.

The jasper buckle and the gold centerpiece inlaid with pearls were all the dowry she inherited from her grandmother. They were given to her, and she gave them to Fu Chengyuan.

There was also the box that Aunt Shen had given her when she got married. She thought it contained just a pair of thin gold bracelets, but when she picked up the bracelets, she found that the bottom of the box was tilted up. She opened the bottom.

, only to find that there were two silver notes of one hundred taels and ten gold leaves buried underneath.

She was in a daze for a long time, and then she saw that the person holding Su'er and looking at her with a smile was Chuiyun beside Aqing.

Not just her, people pointed at her along the way and laughed at her as a unruly daughter-in-law who wanted to go back to her parents' home.

When his father was taken to the Western Expedition by His Majesty, Fu Chengyuan began to show his true colors. He treated the mother and daughter harshly, driving them to live in a penthouse without giving them food or water. Su'er was still young and cried from hunger every day.

She went to seek help from Fu Chengyuan, but she only received a severe beating.

Looking at Fu Chengyuan's face like a paint shop, Chu Jiyuan sighed:

….

"Zhuo Xin, when I married Yuan Jin to you, I didn't want you to be rich and powerful. I just wanted you to be a responsible husband. But you...well, why don't you follow me in first, and I'll go

Please ask the doctor to come and see your injury. As for the matter between you and Yuan Jin, Zhuo Xin, you..."

"I got sick from overwork. Why did I get sick from overwork? It was just because you had to eat, drink and spend money in the southwest. Mr. Chu, when you collected those silver notes, you didn't even think about where the money came from? That's

Your wife paid for it with her life!"

Fu Chengyuan, could such a person still confidently claim to be her husband-in-law, Chu Yuanjin?

She looked at her hands, which were shaking.

On the way back to Yanjing, she learned that since her father's accident, Ah Qing had worried about her and specially sent Chuiyun to Baoding. Chuiyun found out about her escape that day, and she immediately bribed Fu Chengyuan.

She was given special steamed wine in her outer room and asked her to find a way to get Fu and his son drunk.
