This day finally arrived, but Mo Qingwan was not as happy as she had imagined. She slowly walked out of the room and looked in the direction of the Mo family.
Nanny Wu stood silently behind her, worried about the same person as her.
"Miss——" Mo Qingwan's personal maid ran in, panting and pointing to the door: "The official is here!"
"Guan Ye?"
Mo Qingwan and Nanny Wu looked towards the door together. Nanny Wu asked worriedly, "What official? Didn't the prefect just let us go?"
Could it be that Mo Er said some nonsense again, causing the prefect to change his mind at the last minute?
"No, no, it's not the prefect." The maid waved her hand and said, "It's the official from Tongan County! The one who took us to the county government office last time!"
The maid bit her lip and recalled, "I thought I saw him just now. It seems... that person might really be him!"
As soon as she heard the official from Tongan County, Mo Qingwan immediately understood who had sent him, and quickly lifted her skirt and ran to the front yard.
The wind messed up her bun and blew up her hair, but it couldn't shake her hurried steps.
"Sir!" As soon as she entered the front hall, she ran to Xiao Yuan and asked anxiously, "Does Lord Shen have anything to say to my daughter?"
It wasn't until today that Xiao Yuan realized that the Mo Qingwan in front of him was not a bad person.
On the contrary, she was born in a wealthy family, but her life was harder than many people. If it were him, this kind of suffering might be unbearable.
Xiao Yuan nodded, took two steps forward, and lowered his voice, "Please help your mother with the government to investigate the case. The government may be able to sentence your mother and your father to separate."
Unlike divorce and divorce by amicable consent, a government-ordered sentence to sever a marriage does not require the consent of anyone - if the government sentences you to divorce, it is useless regardless of whether either of you is willing or not.
However, "Duanli" was rarely mentioned or used in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
It is difficult for a judge to judge family affairs. If it is just a quarrel between husband and wife or a dispute over family interests, the government will not intervene rashly.
After all, some couples quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed, they may cut each other with knives one day and kiss each other like one person the next day.
——Local government officials had suffered similar losses in the past. The couple quarreled and asked the government to divorce them. The government saw that they had already used knives, so they knew the situation was serious and could only settle the matter in court. As a result, the couple slept together and got back together the next day. They went to court hand in hand, saying that the government had ruined a marriage destined by heaven and demanded that the government pay money to re-arrange the marriage for them...
How outrageous! How ridiculous!
So sometimes it’s not that the government is cold-blooded or the judges are ruthless, but behind some events are real lessons from blood and tears!
"Pan, Panli?" A ray of light flashed in Mo Qingwan's eyes.
She actually forgot that between divorce and divorce by amicable consent, there is "divorce by judgment"!
Without even asking what they needed to do, she quickly nodded and agreed: "We will help, we will help, we can do anything you ask us to do!"
Xiao Yuan paused after hearing this, glanced at Nanny Wu and said hesitantly: "This matter is very serious, Madam Mo..."
"Madam is willing." Before Xiao Yuan finished speaking, Nanny Wu stepped forward, looked at Xiao Yuan and said, "Sir, Madam is willing to help."
Nanny Wu's face was firm, but Xiao Yuan still said tactfully: "Miss Mo got married successfully today, and Madam Mo..."
She had put her worries to rest and her fighting spirit was completely burned out.
Shen Zheng told Xiao Yuan that she was not worried that Mo Qingwan and Madam Mo would not be able to give up their wealth and glory. What she was worried about was that Madam Mo only wanted to perish along with them.
What she was worried about was that Mo Qingwan wanted to live with Madam Mo, but Madam Mo had long lost the strength to struggle - today's Madam Mo came with the determination to die.
Nanny Wu accompanies Madam Mo every day, and what Xiao Yuan said was exactly what she had worried about before.
But things are different now.
She looked at Mo Qingwan who was full of anxiety and smiled lightly: "There is a young lady waiting for Madam. Madam...she will definitely agree."
No one knew better than her what Miss meant to Madam.
When the lady tossed and turned at night, the young lady was a tranquilizer. When the lady was seriously ill and bedridden, the young lady was a panacea. When the lady was in despair and hopeless, the young lady was salvation.
Today the young lady thought it was the lady who saved her, but in fact it was the young lady who saved the lady.
......
The streets in the city are smooth and the carriage ride is not that bumpy.
The carriage stopped, Shen Zheng twisted her neck and said to Liang Fu, "We are finally here. You said this place is too big or it is not good. It takes half an hour to go home... Eh?"
She lifted the car curtain with one hand and was stunned.
"What's going on?" Liang Fu leaned over and was equally puzzled after seeing the scene clearly. "What are we doing here at the government office? Didn't we say that we would stay at Yu Mansion for one night and go directly to Baiyun County tomorrow?"
"Yeah..." Shen Zheng stretched her head out and looked at the sky: "It will be dark soon. Lord Yu, you don't want us to help with the work, do you?"
Shen Zheng was frightened at the thought of this possibility, and quickly lowered the car curtain and sat back down.
"......" Liang Fu was shocked by her smooth operation, but he kindly reminded her: "Master Yu is coming, why don't we take the initiative to go down? It would be embarrassing if he came to invite us personally."
"..."
No one answered him.
Liang Fu turned around and saw it, and immediately laughed.
Damn Shen Zheng! She actually started snoring!
The next moment, the curtain of the car was lifted, and Liang Fu and Yu Zhengqing looked at each other in silence. Yu Zhengqing glanced at the "sleeping" Shen Zheng, and knocked on the car with his knuckles.
"Don't pretend. Which government office doesn't do accounting at the end of the year? I heard from Master Bo that you teach people how to do math and look at accounts in the yamen. Now that you're here today, go help the yamen and look at the accounts."
It was the first time that Shen Zheng realized that the words "since you're here" could be used in such a place.
She was tired from the long journey today and would have to travel again tomorrow. She really wanted to go to Yu Mansion to have a good meal, chat with Zhuang Zhiyun, and then sleep until dawn.
"Are you really asleep?" Yu Zhengqing asked again pretendingly, but Shen Zheng remained motionless.
"Somebody come!"
Calling someone?
Shen Zheng's eyelids trembled slightly.
Yu Zhengqing said loudly, "Master Shen is not feeling well. Drive the carriage directly to the hall."
What a good move! Shen Zheng sat up with a tumble, and said with a fake smile: "Thanks to your care, sir, I'm suddenly well again."
Yu Zhengqing gave her a fake smile: "It's good."
On the way to the government office, Shen Zheng was still a little unwilling, and asked Yu Zhengqing: "Aren't you curious about what the things I went to Baiyun County to find are for? Do you just want me to help you with the accounts?"
Yu Zhengqing did not answer. She thought for a moment and decided to betray Xu Zhubu: "Xu Zhubu is good at reading account books. If you trust him, I can let him read the county's accounts and then help the government..."
Yu Zhengqing paused and asked teasingly, "Does Xu Zhubu know that you are so nice to him?"
The most annoying thing is to sort out the accounts at the end of the year, and few people are willing to do it.
Shen Zheng's face froze, and she shot back, "No one is as good to me as you are."
Besides, Xu Zhubu's home is in Liuyang Prefecture, and it is not certain whether people are willing to come to help.
Yu Zhengqing laughed angrily and asked her, "Tell me, what good things does Yin Wencai have that is worth your trip?"
