The daily life of a concubine's daughter

Chapter 21: Different Ways, Don’t Conspire with Each Other

Fu Nanjun sneered and just buried his head in looking at the newly copied dowry list.

Some commonly used objects were placed in front of her eyes so that she could see them every day, and she would draw a circle behind them.

Some of them were unfamiliar to her and she had no impression of them for many years. When she opened the warehouse to check later, she found that they were either buried at the bottom of a box and covered with dust, or they were given as gifts or rewards, or her subordinates saw that she had not used them for a long time and secretly took them out to sell.

Life is not easy for a divorced woman. The dowry is the capital for her future livelihood, so it must be carefully calculated.

Perhaps because he had never thought about his wife getting a divorce, and he had never seen anyone in the circle getting a divorce, Shi Mingwu found it quite surprising.

He took off his cloak and hung it on the screen beside him, sneeringly asking, "You even brought out the dowry list, do you really want a divorce?"

This time, Fu Nanjun raised her head, frowning slightly: "My Lord, when I said divorce, I was not kidding you, I really wanted a divorce. You always don't take my words seriously. Do you know that you are talking to yourself but think you are teaching a woman, and you are arrogant but think you are noble, which is really stupid?"

Shi Mingwu took a deep breath.

Except for being scolded by his grandfather, father, and teacher when he was young, and except for being impeached by the censor, no woman had ever dared to speak to him in such a sarcastic attitude.

He pinched Fu Nanjun's chin, and the distance between them instantly shortened, and they could hear each other's breathing.

The man's eyes were icy cold.

"Fu Nanjun, you are so bold! How dare you talk to your husband like this!"

Fu Nanjun had just finished speaking when he was so frightened that his calves were cramping. Now the man's large, iron-like hands were pinching his chin, and he was so frightened that his whole body went limp and he almost collapsed to the ground.

She is used to being docile.

She obeyed her parents, husband, and parents-in-law all her life. She and her husband occasionally quarreled, but they were just minor quarrels and would not really challenge Shi Mingwu's bottom line.

She pretended to be calm and said, "If I didn't say that, you would think I was just fooling around. Besides, in your eyes, am I not also a stupid woman who only knows how to be jealous? Similarly, in my eyes, you are just as stupid.

"If we are on different paths, we cannot work together. The same is true for husband and wife. Since you and I are no longer of the same mind, it is better for us to separate and live in peace."

Shi Mingwu increased the strength of his hands and suppressed the anger in his eyes, but this only made the unrelieved anger even more intense.

"Mr. Fu Nan, I never knew you were so jealous. Just because I favored my biological sister, you wanted to divorce me."

"Shi Mingwu!" Fu Nanjun slapped the back of his hand, tears streaming down his face in anger. "Is this a matter of jealousy? Shi Mingwu, you said it yourself, forming a clique for personal gain, plotting to murder... is it just a matter of jealousy? It is clearly the root cause of the confiscation of property and the extermination of the clan!

In your eyes, I am just jealous? I just don't want to go along with you, and I don't want my innocent child to be buried under your desires and selfishness!"

The woman was cruel. Her soft and boneless hands, which had played with his hands countless times, left red marks on the back of his hands.

Shi Mingwu pushed her away fiercely: "It's unreasonable, it's just a woman's opinion!"

Fu Nanjun fell onto the soft couch beside him.

She could no longer feel the pain in her body, and she raised the corners of her lips sarcastically.

This sentence again.

It's as if being born a woman means you are not worthy of having a brain, and you don't have one.

Women...women...whatever a woman does can be wrong because of these two words, and all her efforts may be wasted because of these two words.

Shi Mingwu is a man, and the old master, father-in-law, second master and third master are all men. What did he get for being a man in his previous life?

The entire family will be executed and all nine clans will be exterminated!

She is a woman, timid and afraid of things. From her womanly perspective, she only wants to save herself and her children, and to protect her family from being implicated. However, Shi Mingwu's manly perspective wants to bring disaster to the entire family!

It was the first time that Fu Nanjun rebelled against the man who controlled her life. She was so frightened that she trembled all over. She was more frightened than the confidant who had set up a trap to kill the lady's henchmen who stayed in the mansion. But she still got up, found the fox fur cloak with trembling hands and put it on.

When she was about to step out of the door, Shi Mingwu put the teacup heavily on the table with a gloomy face and said coldly: "Fu Nanjun, if you dare to step out of this door, don't come back!"

"If you dare to spread a word that is unfavorable to the Shi family, don't blame me for killing the Fu family! Don't forget that the sons you gave birth to are still in this mansion."

"Fu Nanjun!"

"Fu Nanjun, do you know that if a woman files for divorce, she will be sentenced to two years in prison?"

This time, Fu Nanjun turned around, tears flashing in her eyes, her red lips bitten white, and she spoke word by word: "Shi Mingwu, I would rather go to jail for two years than divorce you!"

After she finished speaking, she lifted the curtain and walked out.

Shi Mingwu withdrew his gaze from the idiot, grabbed the teacup and smashed it to the ground.

The entire Handan Courtyard fell silent in an instant.

long silence.

"Someone, come here! Grandma has caught a cold and is not suitable to go home. Bring her back to me!"

"I don't know what the dispute was. Yesterday, the young master slept in the study room in the front yard. Today, the eldest lady's carriage was almost at the second gate. The young master hurriedly sent someone to stop it," Nanny Tang gossiped with the dowager in Ganlu Hall. "This time it's clear that it was the young master who offended the eldest lady. The eldest lady couldn't leave and refused to go back to the Handan Courtyard. The young master went to drag her back to the courtyard in broad daylight and called for water twice."

The lady's lips curved, "Mingwu's wife has always been docile. It seems that Mingwu really made her angry. Young couples fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. If there is a disagreement, it is not good to keep it in your heart. It will be over if you let it out."

"Exactly."

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. As long as they don't make big mistakes, the old lady doesn't care. She is more concerned about the two unmarried granddaughters, so she asked: "Xin Niang is Zhuzhu's wet nurse, is she okay?"

"He cried for a while, and the eldest lady tried to comfort him for a long time. His eyes were swollen like walnuts." Nanny Tang replied hurriedly.

"Ah, she is a person who values ​​love and friendship, and she is very nostalgic. When she was seven, the thrush she raised died, and when she was ten, she still wrote poems to commemorate it." The lady asked again, "Last night, Yao-ya-tou said something about being frozen for half an hour. What's the matter with that?"

Aunt Tang was in a dilemma.

The old lady was very experienced and knew there was another reason. She frowned and said, "What else do you have to hide from me? You have to look at the young man's face. Do you think that I, who am half buried in the ground, will be put into the coffin tomorrow?"

Aunt Tang knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "How dare I! This is a really despicable thing - Qiu Shi quietly opened the window yesterday while the second young lady was asleep. He kept it open for half an hour. The second young lady listened to the noise from beginning to end but didn't dare to make a sound, fearing that Qiu Shi would suffocate her to death immediately. She just hid in the quilt, facing the cold wind and crying secretly.

Half an hour later, Qiushi went back to close the window and wipe out the traces. The second girl couldn't bear this breath, and wanted to die with Qiushi, so she ordered Qiushi to kneel down under the window. The second girl accompanied Qiushi in the cold for more than half an hour, and Ziyuan came, closed the window, and took Qiushi away.

Ziyuan argued with the young lady, and the second young lady punished her by slapping her ten times. As for Qiushi, she was slapped on the face by herself, and it had nothing to do with the second young lady. After that, there was not even a maid guarding the second young lady's room until the next morning, when the eldest lady sent Luokui and Wuxi to serve.
