Chapter 237: Sister-in-law 3 and 5 both want to run away
Fu Nanjun knew she was going to ask this, and he didn't hide it from her. He nodded and said, "I did it. In the first life, in order to let my eldest sister ascend to the throne, the Shi family joined forces with other forces to harm the prince. In the second life, they not only harmed the prince, but also the fourth prince, the emperor's favorite.
To do these big cases that cost lives, one needs power but money. To do this, the Shi family had two sources of money: the dowry from the Xie family and the business of the third son.
The third child must read this book, otherwise no matter how much we reason with him, it will be useless as his heart is still with his eldest sister.
I have money in my hand. If I persuade him to stop today, tomorrow he only needs to think about it and I can kill the whole family. If you want to blame someone, blame me. I don't regret it."
Tao Ziyi wanted to hold her accountable and ask her why she didn't care about her child.
After hearing this, he lost all courage to challenge the culprit.
"I see. He deserves it."
The two sisters-in-law were just talking about this when the old woman came in hurriedly to report: "The fifth master and the fifth mistress are fighting!"
Fu Nanjun was in charge of the household supplies, so he had to intervene, and the two sisters-in-law hurried to Xianlan Garden.
The maids and servants had pulled apart the couple who were fighting (unilaterally by Qi Wan).
Qi Wan won the fight, and sat aside crying, her hands and feet weak from excitement. Tao Ziyi pulled her out to comfort her.
Shi Mingying lost the fight and was completely humiliated. He stiffened his neck and shouted "shrew" and "divorce her" and wanted to divorce her. His face was hideous and his body was covered in blood.
Fu Nanjun was too lazy to pay attention to him or persuade him. She ordered the servant to carry him to the bed and asked Nanny Han to call a doctor, fulfilling her responsibilities as an eldest sister-in-law in a perfunctory manner.
Outside, Qi Wan raised her swollen face and showed it to Tao Ziyi: "Sister-in-law, I can't live like this anymore!"
Tao Ziyi was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so she hurriedly drove the maids out, fetched water to wash her face, and advised her, "For the sake of the child, please bear with it.
You are a weakling, why did you fight with Lao Wu? Aren't you afraid that he will get really angry and beat you to death with one punch? It would be a waste of life if you died, he could just marry a second wife and continue to live happily. You, don't provoke him again in the future."
Qi Wan wiped her face and applied medicine. The more painful her face was, the clearer her mind became. She grabbed Tao Ziyi's wrist and said, "Sister-in-law, when I hear you say to endure, I can't endure it anymore. Do you still remember my daughter-in-law Yuan in my last life?"
Tao Ziyi thought for a moment and said, "I remember. Your youngest son married his first wife."
Qi Wan said seriously: "She abandoned her husband and children, and I scolded her for more than ten years. When her son grew up, I didn't want to lose face for my grandson, so I stopped scolding her.
Does my sister-in-law know? I scold her and remember her, not because I really hate her. Our family is a mess, who wouldn't want to escape?
I want to escape, I want to run away, but I can't give up this or that.
I envied her courage and decisiveness, and hated myself for being cowardly and timid, not daring to take that step, and trapping myself like a pupa in the cocoon of the Shi family for life. I felt miserable, but in fact, it was all my own fault. "
Tao Ziyi was stunned: "According to what you said, Yuan Shi does have some respectable and lovable qualities."
Qi Wan gently stroked her red and swollen cheeks: "Sister-in-law, now I have figured it out. The child's life is a lifetime, so is my life not a lifetime?
I endured everything for the sake of my children, but my children may not live a good life, but I actually couldn't live a good life!
Why do people live their whole lives? For whom? I have spent my whole life planning for my parents' home, my husband, my children and grandchildren. I have lived for others and silently endured grievances.
But think about it, is there anyone who lives for me? Is there anyone who is willing to sacrifice himself for my good life? "
Tao Ziyi was shocked as if by thunderbolt from a clear sky; Qi Wan's words were deafening to her.
"Yes, we have already lived our whole life again. Do we still have to live for others? If we continue to feel wronged and cry, and end up dying of anger, then it would be better not to live this life!"
When Qi Wan heard her say this, she became more courageous: “Sister-in-law, the men in the Shi family, from top to bottom, all revolve around Shi Mingzhu.
In my previous life, I wanted to straighten the children out, but they are also men of the Shi family. Their honor and disgrace are tied to the Duke's Mansion. They also listened to their father's teachings, so they grew up astray and their hearts fell on Shi Mingzhu.
I don't want to put myself in a difficult position for a man like this anymore!
Sister-in-law, I must divorce you. Even if the Shi family scolds me for abandoning my husband and children or scolds me for not following the rules of a boudoir, even if I end up living alone after the divorce and no one dares to marry me, I will still divorce you!"
Qi Wan was furious. If she couldn't get a divorce, she would be a widow early in this life!
Without Shi Mingying, her son would be less influenced by the men in the Shi family and would no longer be Shi Mingzhu's bootlicker.
Tao Ziyi looked down at her determined face and was completely stunned.
It's like a huge rock was thrown into my heart, causing a thousand huge waves!
It turns out there is another way to live?
Yes, there are, such as the Yuan family in the previous life.
"What are you talking about?" Fu Nanjun pushed aside the bead curtain, came in and asked.
Tao Ziyi pressed Qi Wan's wrist, quickly concealed her expression, and sighed, "I was just trying to persuade her that women will always suffer when fighting with men. If she wins today, will Lao Wu be well tomorrow?
Why would a good couple become enemies? If it gets out, how can they look good?"
Fu Nanjun came over, shook Qi Wan's hand, and said softly, "Your third sister-in-law is right. You will have to live in this family in the future. It's not worth it to turn against him.
This time, I'll just beat him up and vent my anger. If he dares to retaliate, come find me and I'll take care of it for you."
Qi Wan didn't understand what he meant, so she just agreed, pretending to be sad and disappointed: "Thank you two sisters-in-law for thinking of me."
Fu Nanjun sat down next to them. Seeing Tao Ziyi was about to give up her seat, he waved his hand and asked her to sit down quickly: "The third and fifth brothers have resigned. Second uncle and second aunt have received the letter, right?
"These two brothers will not have a good time, and they will definitely be scolded. You two should take care of them for now, and make plans for the future after receiving the letter from your uncle and aunt."
Tao Ziyi said: "That's exactly what sister-in-law said."
Fu Nanjun encouraged them for a while, and then another maid came in and reported: "...the old master has run out of a medicine, and asked Madam to give them a pair of cards so that they can go out and buy more."
Fu Nanjun was afraid that his servants might make a mistake, so he apologized to the two men and went out to supervise the matter personally.
Qi Wan then asked, "What did you mean just now?"
Tao Ziyi then told Fu Nanjun what she had asked in the garden, and whispered, "...After leaving my eldest sister-in-law, I remembered that if my eldest sister wants to succeed, she needs money and power.
The third brother provides the money, and the eldest brother takes the lead in providing power. But looking at this situation, will the eldest sister-in-law deal with the eldest brother?
Definitely not.
Because the eldest sister-in-law has to take care of the children and their future, how could she treat the eldest child the same way she treated the third child?
The eldest brother's reputation will be bad, but as long as the eldest sister-in-law forgives him, what can outsiders say? The imperial censor in the court can't keep holding on to this little thing to hinder the eldest brother's progress. "
