Donate 300,000 yuan to invite the God of War to marry, and I ask for a divorce
Chapter 7: Stepmother is really vicious
"It's a full 30. Do you think I have any extra?" Wan Zhou knew what Gu Wanyu was planning and didn't give her any hope.
Gu Wanyu just wanted to know if she had any money left and how much he could get from her.
Still not giving up.
She really had money, and quite a lot of it.
As for how much she actually had, she herself didn't know. She once asked Huayang, and Huayang said, "There are a lot of them. You can spend as much as you want. You will never spend it all."
But Gu Wanyu? It's useless to think about it.
"Big sister, why are you so cruel?" After getting a positive answer, Gu Wanyu's last glimmer of hope was shattered, and her eyes became resentful, as if she had suffered great hurt.
Her plan was perfect! When Jiang Xuan passed the imperial examination and Gu Wanzhou died, she would marry him. Jiang Xuan's family background was poor, but he was good-looking. Once he passed the imperial examination, he could spend money to make things right and become a rich and noble wife of a high-ranking official.
Now her wishful thinking has been ruined by Gu Wanzhou!
In fact, with her conditions, it is not difficult to marry a well-matched young man from aristocratic family, but being well-matched means that the family background is not very rich. What if he is the second son and cannot be the head of the family, he will be controlled by others.
She is unwilling to do so.
She was originally looking for a horse while riding a donkey, but now Jiang Xuan's donkey has become a useless chess piece. It is uncertain whether she can find a good horse.
Cruel? Wan Zhou sneered inwardly.
Gu Wanyu plotted to murder her in her previous life and spent her money, and now you say she is cruel?
Is this cruel?
When Gu Wanyu married Jiang Xuan and lived a life that was completely contrary to her ideals, and when the two unsuccessful people tortured and wasted each other, she realized what cruelty was.
"Second sister, I am donating my own money to contribute to the country. How can I be so cruel?" Wan Zhou looked at Gu Wanyu with a smile.
"Or did my donation of this money ruin my second sister's plan?"
Gu Wanyu's heart was shaken. Why did Gu Wanzhou's words sound like he knew something? She looked at Wanzhou suspiciously.
At this time, Jiang, who had fainted, woke up.
She trembled and rushed to Wan Zhou, pointed at her nose and cursed: "You stupid girl, I treat you like my own daughter, and you made the decision on such a big matter by yourself."
"It seems that I have been too good to you over the years, which has led to your lawlessness. Today I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your dead mother."
Since Jiang married into the Gu family and learned about the dowry document, she began to plan. She planned for so many years, but in the end, she got nothing?
Who will compensate her for all these years of hypocrisy?
God knows, she is just a stepmother, and a narrow-minded stepmother at that.
Jiang was filled with despair and anger that no one could help her.
Wan Zhou looked at these people, one after another. When Jiang Yi was ashamed, Jiang's mother took over. When Gu Wanyu didn't know how to respond, Jiang took over. Isn't it great to have a mother?
She has no mother, but today she is going to kill everyone as if she has a mother.
"The 30 yuan was left to me by my mother," Wan Zhou reminded.
"What your mother left behind is yours?" Jiang's eyes were red, and she pulled her neck and shouted at Wan Zhou: "You have the blood of the Gu family, so everything you have belongs to the Gu family. What you donated is my Gu family's property."
"Come here, give me 20 lashes of the cane, and then lock me up in the woodshed without food."
No food? Are you trying to starve her to death?
Looking at Jiang's chest rising and falling, Wan Zhou felt relieved.
Yesterday she was a loving mother, but today she is a vicious stepmother? All because of 30 taels of silver.
Heart!
It seems that the stories told by Qian's mother may not be made up. The stepmother is indeed cruel.
Now think about it, given Jiang's viciousness, if it weren't for her mother's foresight, who knows how long she would have lived.
Even now, with Jiang's extremely cruel behavior, if she doesn't leave herself a way out, when her father comes back, her grave will probably be overgrown with grass.
At Jiang's command, Mother Qian, who was extremely capable, had her servants bring in family rules.
Wan Zhou looked at the wide bench usually used to punish servants and walked over automatically.
"Mother, you blame me for not informing you in advance when I made the donation. I will tell you now that I heard that the emperor will summon me to the palace to receive the reward today."
"Who are you trying to fool..." Jiang's mother sneered immediately, "Xuan'er has already said that you donated the money anonymously? Who are you trying to fool?"
"It's hilarious. I've never seen an idiot like you in my life."
"It's stupid to lose $30 for nothing and remain anonymous."
Jiang was hesitant at first, but after hearing what Jiang's mother said, she became even more furious. Although Gu Wanzhou was not her child, she raised him. If he was so stupid, it would be a disgrace to her.
Without thinking about it any more, he shouted coldly, "Hit me."
She was so angry that her head was about to fly off, and she couldn't vent her anger unless she hit Wan Zhou.
Wan Zhou looked at the sky and estimated that Lord Xie should be arriving soon.
She just needed to delay the time until Lord Xie came.
"Mother, you can't blame me entirely. I discussed with you that we should give 5 yuan each to your uncle's family and to you to cancel the engagement, but you refused."
Still bringing this up?
Jiang regretted it so much that her intestines turned green.
If she had known this would happen, she should have agreed to cancel the engagement that day. At most, she could have bargained and asked for more compensation.
It's better than getting nothing now.
At the very least you can get 5, right?
If I put 5 yuan out for loan sharking, the interest for one year would be…
"What fifty thousand?" Jiang's mother heard the problem and questioned Jiang.
Wan Zhou was very satisfied with Jiang's mother's reaction and took the initiative to help Jiang's mother resolve her doubts: "Just a few days ago, I told my mother that I wanted to cancel the engagement and give the Jiang family 5 taels of silver as compensation, but my mother did not agree."
"What?" Jiang's mother stared at Jiang, "How can you make the decision for us on such a big matter?"
Jiang was already angry, and seeing that Jiang's mother was so unreasonable, she said sarcastically, "If I told you, would you agree to cancel the engagement for 5 yuan?"
Don’t you have any idea how greedy you are?
Mother Jiang refused to give in. "If I had known that she wanted to cancel the engagement, I would have agreed."
"Then what do you mean? You want me to compensate you 50,000 taels?" Jiang said unhappily.
She still regrets it.
"Of course you have to compensate. If it weren't for you, how could my Xuan'er have been cheated so badly? It's all your fault." Mother Jiang pulled her chin, not ready to give up.
After all, it was Jiang who came to her about this matter. Now she has gained nothing and has paid the price for her son's false love for so many years.
"If it weren't for you...well..." Jiang's mother finally found an outlet for the anger she was holding back. She was about to shout it out to vent her anger, but was covered by Qian's mother who was beside Jiang.
"Aunt, are you planning to sever ties with our Gu family?" Mother Qian reminded Mother Jiang sternly.
Jiang's mother was still furious, but she stopped yelling.
At this moment, a servant came hurriedly to report: "Madam, Madam, Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie from the Ministry of Revenue is here."
Mr. Xie from the Ministry of Revenue? Is he really here? Could it be that Gu Wanzhou was not lying?
Jiang Shi glanced at the torture instruments beside him and quickly winked at Qian's mother, asking her to take them away.
But thank you, Lord, for coming in.
"Thank you, sir. Why are you here?" Jiang greeted with a smile.
The others also saluted.
Lord Xie stated his purpose straight away, saying that the Emperor wanted to meet Wan Zhou and reward him.
When Jiang heard this, her legs trembled.
If Lord Xie came and happened to see Wan Zhou being beaten, and asked the reason and found out it was because she donated money to the court, wouldn't he be in trouble?
Jiang glared at Jiang's mother fiercely and felt a surge of fear.
Seeing Lord Xie sweeping the torture bench that had not been removed in time, his heart trembled again.
I wonder if Lord Xie has discovered something?
At this time, Jiang's mother also came to her senses and hurriedly grabbed Wanzhou, "Wanzhou, please give the letter of withdrawal of engagement to your aunt. Your aunt was also in a hurry just now..."
Wan Zhou pulled his hand away without saying anything, and of course did not return the letter of withdrawal of engagement, and followed Lord Xie away.
As soon as Wan Zhou left, Jiang Mu's legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground.
"It's over, it's over. What if that damn girl talks nonsense? Our Jiang family will be finished?" Mother Jiang had a sad face, terrified.
She is afraid.
If Wan Zhou said that the Jiang family was dissatisfied with her donation and broke off the engagement, wouldn't that be equivalent to being dissatisfied with the court? It would be strange if the emperor didn't punish the Jiang family.
It's over.
Jiang's mother cried endlessly, and even Jiang was shaking with guilt.
That damn girl wouldn't really say anything nonsense, right?
