d have to find another way to help Zong Bai with his studies.Zong Yu saw that his daughter-in-law had made up her mind. He said it himself, this household was entirely under Fang Jinxiu's control. Eve..."One thousand taels, would that be enough to take her away"
The Du family had never seen such a large sum of money before. Du Laotai, who loved money more than anything, stared at the thousand taels on the table with wide eyes, wishing she could stick to it. She immediately snatched the silver notes and put them in her bosom.
She thought so in her heart, and her hand was also preparing to do just that.
Fang Jinshi, however, pressed his hand on the silver bill just as she was about to spray it.
"Aunt Du hasn't given me a straight answer yet."
Old Lady Du was sharp as a tack. She rolled her eyes, and with a sly smile, she said.
"Well then, since you're a good friend of San'er's daughter-in-law, you surely wouldn't harm her. If you want to take her away, just go ahead."
"We didn't disagree on anything."
Fang Jinshi smiled. "Good, Lady Du is indeed a straightforward person."
Since you agree as well, I'll draft a divorce letter right now. You can have your son sign and seal it.
Old Madam Du still thought that the woman in front of her was a simpleton with a lot of money, easily fooled. Hearing the words "divorce letter," she immediately went blank, then reacted instantly.
"Hey, wait a minute, who said anything about getting a divorce"
"I let you take her, but I never said she wouldn't come back."
"This is my daughter-in-law. Why are you forcing her to divorce my son"
"I would never sign for my son!"
Fang Jinshu had long known things wouldn't go so smoothly. She nodded without annoyance, and in front of Old Lady Du's surprised and anxious eyes, she took back the one thousand taels from the table and put them back into her bosom.
Old Madam Du wanted to reach out and stop her.
"Hey, why are you putting the silver notes away"
Isn't she Zhao Yunni's good friend Hearing that she won't let him go, shouldn't she pay more to have him released
Well, well, isn't this unexpected.
"Well, since you won't release him, then so be it."
"I have studied medicine since I was young. Just now, I felt Yun Ni's pulse, and her body is severely deficient."
If you don't want people to die at home, you have to support them well with good food and drink from now on.
"Reliving a hard life is definitely out of the question. Just supporting her until she's old would probably cost a fortune."
She still needs to take medication for a long time. Besides, Yunni's miscarriage this time has also caused her to lose her fertility.
"Hi, anyway, your family has more than just Du Yuan as a son, right Even if he doesn't have descendants, there are still two other brothers who can carry on the family line."
"Alright, I've overstayed my welcome. Time for me to go."
Fang Jinshu looked serious, not at all like she was putting on a show. After she finished speaking, she walked out of the main hall and called Xiao Yue out into the courtyard.
Then, the two of them greeted Old Madam Du, who was still bewildered, and were about to leave. It seemed like they were really leaving.
The two daughters-in-law of the Du family were in a panic, "Mother, that's a thousand taels! Zhao Yunni this sickly woman is a scourge even at home."
"Next time there won't be such a good opportunity for someone to trade her for one thousand taels."
"Mother, quickly think of a plan! She seems like she's really leaving!"
Even Granny Du was anxious. She remained silent all this time because she felt that this Jinxiu was tricking her, putting on a show!
This is a good chance to get her to open up.
But now that the person was truly leaving, she wasn't sure if they were really doing it or just acting.
"Mother! They, they really left!"
Just as Old Madam Du was hesitating, Fang Jinshi led Xiaoyue out of the Du family gate and toward the alley entrance without looking back.
Xiaoyue was puzzled. As she walked out with her mistress, she quietly asked,
"My lady, are we really just leaving like this Don't we care about Miss Zhao"
Miss Zhao is too pitiful, the Du family doesn't care about her at all. If she stays here any longer, she will die.
Fang Jinshu drew the corner of her mouth, looking calm.
"Don't worry, just walk."
"Three."
"Second."
"One."
"Hold on! Hey hey, come back, one thousand taels is one thousand taels, just take the person away quickly!"
Xiao Yue was instantly surprised, Madam was truly amazing.
She's really calm. How did she know that Old Lady Du would definitely rush out and call them back in the end
What if she didn't scream
By the time the two of them finished dealing with Zhao Wu's affairs, Du Jia's battered luggage, not a single item had Fang Jinxiu allowed Xiaoyue to pack.
He only took Zhao Wu and the divorce papers onto the carriage.
Not until everyone else had left did Fang Jinshu say, “Old Madam Du won’t disagree.”
She looked at Zhao Wu, "Du Yuan suddenly seems like a different person towards you, the reason should be clear in your heart."
"You cannot bear children and you are seriously ill, to the Du family, you are a burden."
It's easy to see which they value more, baggage or a thousand taels of silver.
The Du family never took Zhao Wu seriously. The daughter they were eager to marry off to his son was not as valued as the one they had bought with their own savings.
"In that case, we should give them a little less silver, just one thousand taels. It's really cheap for them."
Xiaoyue felt sorry for her master's money, Fang Jinshu smiled and didn't explain further.
The Du family's courtyard is the kind that would be out of reach if money were tight, and it would take a long time to haggle over.
Giving them a thousand taels directly would be more of a stimulation, otherwise, how could she have brought Zhao Wu out of the Du family so quickly and severed ties with them rapidlyu old hag, mind your own business!"“We haven't pursued you for sneaking up the mountain. Tell us yourself, how many good things have you taken from Xiao Hu Have you kept them all to yourself”"You bitc...
