Marry another wife, the mistress of the marquisate will not serve you anymore
Chapter 174 Comeback
Song Wanyin was shocked when she heard this. It was the Gu family again. They really were haunting them. The first branch of the Gu family was declining, and the second and third branches jumped out and continued to stir up trouble.
It seemed that they had become stumbling blocks on his road to success, and he was determined to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Xiao Jingheng waved his hand, and his followers immediately came forward to escort Jia Yuanxi to the government office, and asked the others to dispose of Jia Zonglin's body. He turned to the onlookers and said:
“Fellow villagers, you have seen with your own eyes that the case of Jishiditang selling fake medicine was actually framed by the Jia family.
Now, I have also sought justice for those poor patients!"
In an instant, the people burst into warm applause, expressing their happiness at the Grand Tutor's act of upholding justice.
They never dreamed that Shou'antang was the pharmacy that made money by dirty tricks. In order to defeat its competitors, it did not hesitate to use despicable means. It was so despicable.
Xiao Jingheng walked through the crowd with firm steps, came to Song Wanyin, and whispered:
"Junior sister, this time the clouds have finally cleared and the moon has appeared in Jishidiang, and you have been cleared of all charges.
As for the second and third branches of the Gu family, what are your plans?"
Song Wanyin lowered her eyes and said thoughtfully:
"Brother, based on my understanding of Second Master Gu and Third Master Gu, they will never give up and will come back again.
They are determined to take over all the shops under my name, and I plan to lure them out and wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Xiao Jingheng admired her courage and strategy, and said firmly:
"Okay, I will always stand by your side and advance and retreat with you."
Song Wanyin felt warm in her heart. Since she had his help, many things had been done with half the effort. She said gratefully:
"Brother, I..."
Xiao Jingheng knew what she wanted to say, and immediately raised his hand to interrupt:
"There's no need to be polite between you and me. If you really feel bad, then just promise me one thing."
Song Wanyin asked in surprise:
"what's up?"
Xiao Jingheng deliberately kept things mysterious and said,
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll tell you when I think about it."
After saying that, he walked away from her slowly with his hands behind his back, and went to find Wen Yusheng, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, to find out about the progress of the case.
Song Wanyin suddenly felt uneasy, wondering what conditions her senior brother would put forward and whether she could meet them.
"Senior brother has become cunning now, did he learn it from me?"
She was about to go to Jishitang when she heard a soft voice behind her:
"Wan Yin, I finally see you."
When I turned around, what I saw was a disgusting face, and even my heartbeat slowed down.
Gu Qingchen? Why is he here?
In front, the two elders of the Gu family were plotting to murder him, and behind, the ghost of Gu Qingchen was haunting him.
It's really interesting that this member of the Gu family seems to be born to nemesis me.
Gu Qingchen had a haggard face, untidy beard, and a depressed look. Seeing her pass by him without even glancing at him, he immediately reached out and grabbed her slender arm, saying in a hoarse voice:
"Wan Yin, don't leave. Can you listen to me for a few words?"
Song Wanyin's eyes were filled with indifference, and she said coldly:
"Let go."
Gu Qingchen's palms were not even warm when he reluctantly let go of her hand. When he saw her raising her legs to leave, he immediately opened his arms to block her way.
"If you take another step forward, I will yell loudly, and then many people will come to watch."
Song Wanyin's eyes were filled with disdain, and she sneered:
"It's been a long time since we last met. When did you become such a scoundrel?"
Gu Qingchen saw her stop, then he put down his arms and said in a low voice:
"Wan Yin, ever since we separated, I have missed you all the time.
The Gu family's mansion has lost its former glory and has become desolate and lonely.
That's because you're not carefully managing it, but your shadow is everywhere.
My mother's condition is getting worse and worse. She doesn't have much time left. She is still thinking about you.
All the mistakes were my fault. I never expected to fall in love with a woman who deceived me, and I paid a heavy price.
Even if you still have resentment towards me in your heart, it should disappear.
Please give me a chance, let's start over, and this time I will double your compensation."
Seeing his confident look, Song Wanyin couldn't help but find it ridiculous:
"Gu Qingchen, I think you are desperate, so you are pestering me.
You want me to give you some money to help the Gu family and give you a way out, right?"
Gu Qingchen saw that she was so sharp and his self-esteem was hurt, so his eyes became sharp:
"I have put aside all my pride and am begging you to come back, all because I still cherish our old friendship, unlike you who have turned against me and are so heartless.
Although you now have the aura and honor of a county lady, your Jishitang is still selling fake medicine and harming people. How noble are you?"
Seeing that it was indeed the Gu family's conspiracy, Song Wanyin pressed the issue step by step:
"Gu Qingchen, it's best if you admit it. If your Gu family wants to play any tricks, just come on.
I'll be frank with you, since ancient times, good has never prevailed over evil, cause and effect will always come true. "
Gu Qingchen was intimidated by the powerful aura she exuded, and stepped back in fear, wondering:
"What do you mean? How has our Gu family ever let you down?
On the contrary, our Gu family has completely declined due to your hand. Who is hurting whom?"
Song Wanyin knew very well that it was impossible to wake up a person who was pretending to be asleep, so she gave him a meaningful look and left without looking back.
Talking to someone like him is just a waste of time. Maybe he just wants to find out what you think and report back when he goes back.
Gu Qingchen looked at her resolute back, anger in his eyes, and clenched his fists.
Ever since he left the general's mansion last time, he had tried almost every possible way, but still could not get the eldest princess's forgiveness.
This has ruined his own path to promotion. Now all the civil and military officials are isolating him. His only way out is to rely on Song Wanyin to make a comeback.
After all, those powerful and wealthy officials and princes would never marry a woman who had been married twice.
He always believed that as long as he worked hard, he could grind an iron rod into a needle.
Song Wanyin, you will never escape from my grasp in this life.
Inside the Qiyan Pavilion of Zuixianlou, more than twenty shop owners sat around a teak round table, all of them looking dejected, and the scene was filled with a dead atmosphere.
They saw victory in sight, but they never expected that the Jia family would encounter such a disaster, which completely ruined their plans. They felt an unprecedented sense of frustration.
At this time, Gu Zecheng and Gu Zeqian pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing this, the hosts stood up to greet them and surrounded them to take a seat.
"Second Master Gu, Third Master Gu, I never thought that Jishiditang would escape this disaster this time. What should we do next?"
"Not only has Jishidiang's reputation turned around, but its business is even more prosperous than before."
"My pharmacy has closed down. On weekdays, there are hardly any patients coming. If this continues, I'm afraid my whole family will have nothing to do."
"The Jia family is really incapable of success and is always capable of failure. They were destroyed by Jishidiang so quickly, and our business was also implicated."
Gu Zeqian sat there and poured out some tortoise shells, divination sticks, stones, bones, bamboo and wood from his bag. He then began to act like a wizard and use the tortoise shells and the divination sticks to tell fortunes.
"Not good, this is a bad sign, it looks like it's going to be bad.
"Second brother, what do you think?"
Gu Zecheng held the teacup, pinched the lid and carefully scraped the tea leaves, and said shrewdly:
"Let's not talk about morality at this time. Let's just go all out."
