The guards moved away all the valuable furniture, ornaments, screens, vases in the Marquis's mansion, and even pried away the floor tiles and tiles.

It was because the Marquis's Mansion had been renovated once before, and it was Song Wanyin who paid for it, so now she was just taking back what originally belonged to her.

Tiancheng and Nanny Wei, along with all the servants who came with the dowry, had already packed up everything in Qingzhu Garden.

There were more than ten carriages loaded with the stuff, and Nanny Wei went to hire a dozen more. The grand scene attracted many people to stop and watch.

Song Wanyin looked at the place where she had lived for three years, her eyes were cold and she didn't have the slightest feeling of nostalgia.

The Marquis's Mansion, this sad place, had already broken her heart to pieces, and she lived like a walking corpse.

At this moment, she finally regained her freedom, no longer bound by anything, and far away from this cage.

Through her blurry vision, the lady vaguely saw the guards were about to carry away priceless treasures such as the Jun kiln moon-white glaze halberd-projecting vase, the green jade stove with cloud dragon pattern, the gold-inlaid animal-head agate cup, and the Zenghouyi chime bells.

At this moment, her heart was broken. She stepped forward tremblingly and tried to stop them from moving away.

“No, none of you can move these things.

This is going to cost me my life!"

The guards looked embarrassed and subconsciously looked at Song Wanfeng, but saw him nod slightly and continue to move these valuable items, not taking the lady seriously at all.

The lady cried, made a scene, and then threw herself on the ground, wailing:

"You are robbers and bandits. I am going to the palace to file a complaint!"

Seeing this scene, the elders of the Gu family didn't know whether to stop or keep them. They stood in the garden at a loss, watching the mansion being almost emptied.

Any one of these priceless treasures could support an entire family, ensuring they would never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

They were filled with regret and their hearts were bleeding, as if they were watching golden ingots flowing out of them.

The second and third wives cried bitterly. If they could possess these valuable treasures, they could squander the rest of their lives.

When Gu Zecheng saw the guards were about to move away the golden spear "Yi Zhang Wei" left by his father, which was given by the late emperor, he tried to snatch it back at all costs.

"Hurry up and let go. This weapon is my father's personal property. You can't take it away."

The guards didn't care about that at all. They pushed him to the ground, leaving him on his back, and said coldly:

"The servants are following orders, and outsiders are not allowed to make trouble."

Seeing that the guards dared to attack, Gu Zeqian rushed forward, wanting to fight them to the death.

"You bold slaves, how dare you hit someone? I will fight you!"

One of the guards stepped forward and put his hand on the top of his head. No matter how he struggled, he could only thrash around in the same place.

"If you dare to interfere with public affairs again, don't blame us for offending you."

After saying that, she pressed his head hard and turned his whole body madly, making him spin non-stop in place like a top.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, and the maids and servants were so scared that they hid in the corners and trembled.

Gu Qingchen felt very upset, he stepped forward to help his mother up and persuaded her:

"Mother, just let them all move away.

Trust me, give me some more time.

I will make amends for my crime and double back all the losses!

The Gu family must have some backbone and must not let the Song family look down on them."

The lady cried out loudly, grabbed his arm tightly, and begged:

"Brother Chen, as a descendant of the Gu family, you must protect these ancestral properties, which are the foundation of the Gu family!

You should quickly go and bow down to Song Wanyin and ask her to show mercy and not kill the Gu family!"

Gu Qingchen was unwilling to give in to Song Wanyin at this point, and his back teeth were almost broken:

"Mother, even if I die, I will never surrender to her.

It's a done deal, I accept it.

However, I am also glad that I was able to see her true face earlier.

Divorcing a woman with such a vicious heart like her would be considered a good deed for the Gu family."

Seeing that he was as stubborn as a donkey, the lady slapped him in anger and scolded him:

“You are so confused!

Could you bear to watch your ancestral property being taken away?

Wouldn't that mean we have no chance to survive?

How will our big family make a living in the future?

What's more, your wedding with Lan Yue is coming soon, how can you come up with the bride price to marry her?

Anyway, I don't care what you think.

I only want my grandson, and you must find a way to protect my grandson and give him a safe and smooth birth.

He is the hope of our Gu family and my spiritual support!"

Gu Qingchen's cheeks were burning with pain. Seeing his mother's heartbroken look, he felt very uncomfortable. He gritted his teeth and said:

"Mom, don't be sad. The doctor said that your eye disease can no longer cure your tears. If you keep crying, you might go blind.

You must take good care of yourself, because you will have to watch your grandchildren grow up in the future."

The old lady continued to cry and make a fuss. If the Marquis's Mansion was left with only an empty shell, she would rather die.

"Brother Chen, do you really want me to kneel down and beg you?

Once the Marquis's Mansion is emptied, we will also be kicked out.

You can't just sleep on the street and starve to death, right?"

Song Xingzhou and his wife looked at this scene without any sympathy. All this was retribution for the Gu family's own fault.

"It's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet. God is fair to everyone."

"Madam, please take back your crocodile tears. Don't cry until you go blind and then blame the Song family for it."

After saying that, he turned around and said goodbye to Song Wanfeng and Song Wanyin with his two sons.

Song Wanfeng personally supervised the process. Not only did he take the dowry list from his sister and count it one by one, but he also did not leave anything in the Marquis's Mansion, even all the potted plants were moved away.

When he thought of the injustice his sister had suffered in the Gu family, he really wanted to start a fire and burn down the entire Marquis's Mansion to vent his anger for his sister.

Gu Qingchen couldn't persuade his mother, so he had to walk up to Song Wanyin shamelessly and said:

"Song Wanyin, I have something to say to you."

Song Wanyin turned around gracefully, her eyes bright, and for a moment she seemed to have returned to her teenage years, that ignorant, simple and sweet state.

"At this point, what else do you have to say?"

Gu Qingchen's heart skipped a beat. He never thought that after three years, he would be able to see her face again, which had amazed him throughout his youth.

The huge Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he spoke the weakest words with the toughest attitude.

"I want to ask you to give the Gu family a chance to survive.

I admit that you won and the Marquis's Mansion has completely declined.

It was caused by my incompetence. Although I can't remedy it, please consider our relationship as husband and wife.

Please have mercy on the Gu family and don't kill them all, okay?"
