Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 537

Old Madam Shi fainted and was unable to stop Tang Chujun and Shi Chengxuan from divorcing.

The next day, Shi Anxia specifically asked her uncle Tang Chuyu to find an acquaintance to handle the divorce and register it.

Tang Chuyu also gave a thank-you gift and asked the other party to keep it secret for the time being.

Today is a good day.

In addition to being the day when Tang Chujun was reborn, it was also the day when the results of the spring imperial examination were announced.

At that time, Yunqi and his sister followed the people from Yunqi Academy to see the list. However, before the list came out, the Marquis' Mansion sent servants to find them and told them to return home quickly.

The old marquis is in danger!

The old lady is in danger!

The brother and sister had to return home in a hurry.

On this side, Tang Chujun was cleaning her dowry in the warehouse while waiting for good news from her son.

She also wanted to go and see the list, but her son wouldn't let her.

Her son asked her to stay at home and wait for good news.

She couldn't sit still, and from time to time she looked outside the storeroom door and asked, "Madame Zhong, is Qi'er back yet?"

Nanny Zhong smiled and said, "How can it be so fast? I guess the results haven't been announced yet. My girl, you should be at ease. This young master is so good at taking exams, he will definitely win the first prize in the Spring Examination. If he wins the first prize, he will take the Palace Examination and win the top prize and bring it back to honor you."

Tang Chujun smiled from ear to ear, and was quite modest, "No matter whether you are the top scholar or not, there is no need to be deliberate. We are all subjects of the emperor, and we all serve the court."

The two were talking happily when Nanny Li came over and said, "Madam, our old lady wants to see you."

Nanny Zhong cleared her throat and said, "Nanny Li, you can't call me Madam now. Our girl is no longer your Madam."

Nanny Li smiled awkwardly, "I'm used to it. I'm sorry."

Seeing that Li was so polite, Nanny Zhong stopped making things difficult for her. "I don't blame you. I'm used to you calling me that."

Nanny Li looked at Tang Chujun eagerly.

Tang Chujun hesitated for only a moment, washed his hands with the wet handkerchief handed to him by Nanny Zhong, and followed Nanny Li.

Old Madam Shi lived in Shi Wanzhen's courtyard.

The mother and daughter lived in the east wing and the west wing respectively.

When Tang Chujun arrived, he heard Shi Wanzhen crying and wailing.

Shi Anxia stood outside the courtyard and said, "Mother, if you don't want to see me, you don't have to."

She was afraid that her grandmother would say something unpleasant to upset her mother.

Tang Chujun shook his head and said, "Let her say whatever she wants." Then he went straight in.

At that time, Shi Wanzhen and Shi Chengxuan were both kneeling in front of the bed, crying and calling for their mother.

When the two saw Tang Chujun coming, they both made way.

Tang Chujun sat on a chair beside the bed, looking at the face he had hated for more than ten years, inexplicably feeling dazed, "You, looking for me?"

Hearing the strange yet familiar voice, the old lady slowly opened her eyes, which were originally closed.

She just looked at the woman in front of her.

What a beautiful girl! She had been amazed at Tang Chujun when she first saw him more than a decade ago.

Now, she is old and will soon pass away, but Tang Chujun is even more stunningly beautiful.

But in the end, those who force their way in cannot enter a door.

At that time, the old lady stretched out her withered hand and wanted to hold Tang Chujun's hand.

Tang Chujun hesitated for a while, but still did not reach out to shake Madam Shi's hand.

She said softly, "Shi Chengxuan and I have already divorced."

Madam Shi nodded slightly, withdrew her hand, and sighed, "I understand."

Tang Chujun lowered his head and sat there, speechless.

Finally, Madam Shi uttered three words softly, "I'm sorry..."

Tang Chujun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly tears rolled down his eyes.

She sat there without moving, still with her head down, her nose sore and tears falling on the back of her hand.
