After the marriage was broken off, the husband's family regretted it

Luo Xie: "Taohua, you have finished your business so quickly. I thought you would stay at your parents' house for a while."

Taohua: "There are not many people in my mother's house now, why are you still staying there? Besides, you don't know who my mother is."

"My son is still at home. I have to come back to see him as soon as possible. He is my support in the future."

Luo Xie: "That's right. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled out. It's better for you to stay out of your parents' affairs. There are so many and complicated things going on in your family. Sometimes I just don't want to hear about them."

Taohua said unhappily: "I didn't want you to hear it. Besides, I can handle it myself. Look at what happened today, I handled it very well."

Luo Xie: "Yes, yes, you handled it well. I have to go to the capital in the next few days. You should stay in the town first. I haven't been back for a long time. Stay in the town for a while before going back to the capital."

Taohua knew what Luo Xie said, but she pretended to know nothing. "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll stay in town for a while, just to accompany my mother and take the kids here to play for a while. I'll go back to the capital next month."

Luo Xie felt even satisfied when he heard Yun Tao's words.

Taohua saw Luo Xie's expression and knew that he was satisfied. She said coquettishly, "You have to buy me a gold hairpin when you go to the capital. I recently saw one that costs 300 taels, and we don't have much money left."

Luo Xie was in a good mood. "Take it. Here are five hundred taels. It's enough for you to spend for a while. Just stay in the town and buy whatever you want. Although I don't have a lot of money now, I still have this silver."

Taohua was also very tempted by the money and thought to herself, "It doesn't matter if I want a man or not, the most important thing is the money. The money is real, and my son is also real. As long as my money and my son are still there, my life will not be too bad in the future."

After giving the silver, Luo Xie went straight back to the city, rushed to the city without stopping, and went to a restaurant.

"Why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time. You are so unhurried in doing anything, it's really annoying."

Luo Xie: "I was delayed by something, and it will take me some time to get here from the town. I'm not a bird, how can I be that fast?"

"Lihua, don't be angry anymore. Look, I bought something for you."

Lihua saw that it was a gold hairpin, which must be worth at least five hundred taels. She said excitedly, "You are kind enough to buy me a gold hairpin."

Luo Xie: "Isn't this the best match for you? And you look really good in that gold hairpin. I even like it."

The two finished their meal in the restaurant's private room and were about to go downstairs when they saw a familiar person at the stairs. Just as Lihua saw the familiar face and wanted to turn around and leave, the noble lady called Lihua.

"Madam, you are here too. What a coincidence. It is really fate that we two meet for dinner together. I should have eaten together earlier. Come, let me introduce you. This is my cousin."

Lihua said embarrassedly: "I know her, Second Madam, you forgot. When we had a banquet before, your cousin came. I was very impressed. I have never seen such a smart girl."

The second wife said embarrassedly: "No, my cousin is not as good as you say, you are really being polite. Hey, third wife, who is this? Have I seen her somewhere before? I think she looks familiar. But I can't remember, but she looks familiar."

When Lihua heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously clenched her hands and held her handkerchief tightly, saying, "Second Madam, this is my distant cousin. He used to work for people in the town. He occasionally comes to the capital to handle things. It's not surprising that you may have seen him somewhere. In addition, my distant cousin has a common face, which may give you the illusion that you have seen him."

The second wife didn't take it seriously. After hearing these words, she felt that they made some sense, so she didn't think much about it and left with her cousin.

Lihua looked at the second lady's receding back and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lihua: "It was a close call. My heart was beating non-stop."

Luo Xie: "What are you afraid of? It's nothing. Besides, we just had a meal in the restaurant. We didn't do anything. You have nothing to worry about. It's really groundless."

Lihua said angrily, "What do you know? The Second Madam is very shrewd. That's not the point. The point is that she is my mortal enemy. Don't look at what we say on the surface. In fact, we don't get along well. She is the one who wants me dead the most. If she has any handle on me, I will never be able to turn over in my life."
