Traveling to ancient times to sweep the catering industry

Wang Shen persuaded Madam Wang and Mr. Wang, and went to Cheng Wenwen's residence after the weather cleared up the next day and told Cheng Wenwen about the matter.

"Wenwen, my mother said she wanted to meet you. She said she would agree to our marriage after meeting you, but the wedding can only be simple. I'm sorry to have put you in such a difficult position."

Wang Shen happily pulled Cheng Wenwen aside to talk, and Cheng Wenwen nodded and agreed with a smile.

In fact, she didn't seem to be that happy. This was obviously what she had been looking forward to, to marry a man with good conditions and good character and live an ordinary life.

Cheng Wenwen thought for a moment and asked again: "Do my uncle and aunt know about my business? Will they object?"

Wang Shen was startled and said, "I haven't told them about this yet."

In fact, Mr. and Mrs. Wang probably prefer their daughter-in-law to stay at home to take care of the husband and children, and do not like her to go out and show up in public.

Wang Shen knew this even more, so he didn't say anything for the time being.

After all, this matter can be resolved later. The most important thing at this moment is their marriage.

"Cousin, I think it's better to tell Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang about this as soon as possible. Don't hide it, otherwise we will have an unpleasant argument later and you will be caught in the middle."

Wang Shen said softly: "Wenwen, I know, but things have to be done one by one. You have to give my father and mother some time to accept it."

"I know." Cheng Wenwen felt that what Wang Shen said made sense.

"My mother will go to the Cheng family to visit my aunt the day after tomorrow. When she asks you to come over, don't refuse, okay?"

“The day after tomorrow…”

Cheng Wenwen remembered that they had to prepare desserts for the birthday of Master Chen the day after tomorrow, so they would be very busy, because the day after tomorrow was Master Chen's birthday and the preparations could not be sloppy.

"What's wrong? Do you have anything to do the day after tomorrow?" Wang Shen asked.

Cheng Wenwen nodded: "Yes, there is a business deal the day after tomorrow, and the store will be a little busy. I have to come and look after it. I am afraid that Sister Gao can't handle it alone."

Wang Shen frowned, feeling a little embarrassed. After thinking for a while, he asked again, "The afternoon after tomorrow, it's only half a day. My mother won't keep you talking for a long time, okay?"

Cheng Wenwen thought about it and nodded. It was only one afternoon, and she could be busy in the morning and evening, so she agreed.

When Wang Shen saw that she agreed, he felt happy. Things would get better and better for them in the future.

Wang Shen discussed this matter with Cheng Wenwen and went back. Unexpectedly, not long after he left, Mrs. Cheng II brought Cheng Jinxiu to her residence to see him.

Cheng Wenwen probably knew what they were doing there, so she invited them in.

"Oh Wenwen, your mansion is so hard to find. There's not even a plaque hanging outside the door!" Mrs. Cheng complained.

Cheng Wenwen smiled and said, "I was busy at the moment, so I didn't have time to hang the plaque."

The main reason was that she moved out under Qi Shuo's name, but she had already divorced Qi Shuo, so it was not appropriate for her to use his name. However, if she used the Cheng Mansion, she was afraid that the Cheng family would find out and persuade or force her to return to Shanzhou or remarry.

Now that Qi Shuo had committed a crime, I was afraid that the Cheng family would hope that she and Qi Shuo would separate! So there was no need to hide the fact that she and Qi Shuo were separating.

Although it was unnecessary, Cheng Wenwen still didn't want to let the Cheng family know so early. She had to make them anxious, lest after the incident, her second uncle would not care about the matter and sell her out again.

"Wenwen, you've heard about Qi Shuo's affairs, right?" Mrs. Cheng asked tentatively.

Cheng Wenwen pretended not to know and asked, "What's going on? Isn't my husband a general in Shanzhou? Did something happen?"

Mrs. Cheng was a little confused after hearing this: "You don't know? Everyone outside knows it! Haven't you ever heard anyone talk about it?"

Cheng Wenwen pretended to be innocent and shook her head: "I live alone in this house, so I have to avoid suspicion, so I have been staying at home these days and have hardly gone out."

When Mrs. Cheng saw Cheng Wenwen like this, she felt that what she said made sense. When her husband was not around, she, as a wife, should be more well-behaved to avoid gossip.

But now it’s not a matter of rules or not, there is a more urgent matter.

"Wenwen! Something happened to Qi Shuo!" Mrs. Cheng saw that Cheng Wenwen seemed to know nothing, so she decided to tell her slowly so as not to scare her.

"What's the matter?" Cheng Wenwen stared at Madam Cheng Er with wide eyes, and urged anxiously: "Second Aunt, tell me quickly! What happened to him? Did he have an accident on the battlefield?"

Aunt Cheng thought, it would be good if he died on the battlefield! He would have died in the line of duty, but he didn't die, and 20,000 soldiers under his command died. How could people not suspect him?

The imperial court will certainly not let it go easily.

"Second Aunt, please tell me quickly!" Cheng Wenwen continued to ask.

Seeing her mother speaking slowly, Cheng Jinxiu said impatiently, "Qi Shuo lost the battle and lost 20,000 soldiers. The court is holding him accountable! He will be taken to the capital soon and may be sentenced to death or have his entire family executed! You'd better make plans early and find a way to divorce him or ask him to write a divorce letter, so as not to implicate our family."

After Cheng Jinxiu finished her speech, she let out a sigh of satisfaction.

Originally, she thought that her fate was not as good as Cheng Wenwen's! But now, she felt that Cheng Wenwen's fate was just like this. It can only be said that this is a different time.

Although her fiancée is not as pretty as Qi Shuo and is less capable than him, she is more stable and will not cause any major trouble.

Cheng Jinxiu looked at Cheng Wenwen's panicked expression and felt very proud.

"How could this happen? How could this happen? Is the news wrong?" Cheng Wenwen pretended to disbelieve.

Cheng Jinxiu said, "It can't be a mistake. Everyone in the court knows about it, and they are ostracizing my father because of it! You should find a way to distance yourself from it quickly, or we will have to distance ourselves from you!"

"Jinxiu! Stop talking nonsense! Talk nicely to your sister." Mrs. Cheng scolded. If this annoyed Cheng Wenwen and she refused to cooperate and insisted on dragging the Cheng family into the water, then they would be in trouble.

So Madam Cheng said softly, "Wenwen, don't be anxious. When Qi Shuo enters the capital, we will make some arrangements and send a letter to him asking him to write a divorce letter or a divorce letter. It will be fine as long as we can clear ourselves of the charges."

When Cheng Wenwen heard this, she thought, that's even better! You guys should just cut off all ties with me right away!

But she still had to pretend and asked, "What if he doesn't write?"

Mrs. Cheng looked at Cheng Jinxiu with embarrassment. This time, Cheng Jinxiu didn't say what was in her heart, but muttered to herself: If he doesn't write a letter of divorce, then our Cheng family will write a letter of severing ties, and then kick Cheng Wenwen out of the house and have nothing to do with her anymore.

Of course Cheng Wenwen knew what Uncle Cheng's family was thinking. They would curry favor with you if it would benefit them, and would rather throw you aside and have nothing to do with you if it didn't.

That's why Cheng Wenwen didn't want to be controlled by them anymore.
