The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds onto the earth, bringing light to the world.

On this beautiful morning, a long carriage team slowly drove out of Dongshan Villa.

In a carriage lay the old lady Qi, who was about to embark on a journey full of hope and joy. She was so excited that she felt as if she had returned to the days when she was going to marry into the Qi family as a successor.

Old Madam Qi felt particularly relaxed as she felt the carriage swaying.

Her face was filled with a happy smile and her eyes were shining with excitement.

This trip to Yangzhou was undoubtedly an opportunity for her to enjoy great fortune.

Before she left, she said happily, "I want to say goodbye to the master."

She didn't seem to consider whether the master would be willing to go to Yangzhou to live with her for a while.

She didn't even think of asking the master whether he agreed to let her go to Yangzhou to enjoy a good life.

He also did not consider whether she might die in a foreign land due to her illness becoming more serious during the journey.

In her mind, "I want to go to Yangzhou to enjoy great happiness" is already an established fact, and there is no need to seek other people's opinions.

The servant quickly replied, conveying the master's intention: "The master went out to meet a friend, and left a message to say goodbye."

Hearing this, Old Madam Qi couldn't help but frown, feeling something was wrong.

She quickly shifted her mind away from the matter and refocused on her vision of enjoying great happiness in the future.

She only bullies the eldest and second wives at home, and has never shown her arrogance outside.

Since her own son is an official, she has the opportunity to show off to his subordinates and their wives and children, but they only flatter her.

Mrs. Qi thought about these wonderful things, smiled and said to herself: "Sons born to me are the most filial!"

A horse-drawn carriage took Qi Yuehua into the capital and sent her back to the Yuan family.

The Yuan family sent her to the Yuan family's farm on the pretext that "the eldest lady needs to rest" and assigned people to take good care of her.

Without her mother's support, Qi Yuehua was afraid that her husband would ignore her, so she became more honest than before.

At the same time, another team of carriages went directly into the Ding family's yard.

The adult men in the Ding family were either sentenced to death or exiled to the frontier. Now only a few women remain in the Ding family.

When the women of the Ding family saw the carts of goods sent by the Qi Mansion, they were stunned. They didn't know what was in these carts, nor did they understand why the Qi Mansion suddenly sent things over.

After Qi Cheng jumped off the carriage, he first announced to everyone: "Our master has sent Ding back and brought a letter of divorce." After saying that, he raised a letter in his hand.

"No!" Upon hearing the news, the women in the Qi family screamed and expressed their refusal to accept such an outcome.

In Ding's carriage, a terrified scream was also heard, "No, no, no!" Her hands kept waving, but since her body could not move, she could only scream in fear.

Qi Cheng threw the divorce letter on Ding and said to everyone, "She colluded with your Ding family to harm the first and second masters of our Qi Mansion. The Ministry of Justice has kept their confession. You can go and check it out."

"You, the Ding family, don't have to accept her. You can send her to the government office to be convicted."

"You dare to send her back to our Qi Mansion!" Qi Cheng threatened.

The women of the Ding family were stunned and didn't know what to do.

Ding screamed heartbreakingly, "No, don't."

"Let's go!" Qi Cheng waved his hand.

The servants carried Ding down and laid her on the ground.

The coachman threw all the things on the cart and drove away with the empty cart.

"Qi Fu, come and save me." Ding cried.

The younger generations from Ding's natal family hated her to death.

They all believed that "if it weren't for the old aunt's instigation to seize the wealth of the first and second houses of the Qi Mansion, our Ding family would not have been destroyed."

The women in the rooms cursed Ding one after another, "You evil woman, you got your retribution. Your son and his family are dead."

"You still want Qi Fu to come and save you, but his whole family is dead."

……

It was then that Mrs. Ding learned that Qi Fu's family had all died. She was so sad that she couldn't help crying.

What made her even more sad was that the Ding family was defeated!

Her sister-in-law, the old lady of the Ding family, was actually beheaded!

Several men in the Ding family died or were exiled. The family suffered such a heavy blow that the Dings were extremely shocked and saddened.

Only then did Ding realize that the reason she was sent back to the Ding family by the servants of the Qi residence was because General Qi had tricked her into returning to her parents' home and divorced her.

Ding lost the protection of her natal family and was divorced at an old age. This was undoubtedly a heavy blow. She felt helpless and desperate, as if the whole world had collapsed.

Ding was so desperate that she spat out a mouthful of blood. She opened her eyes wide and could not say anything except "no".

The women of the Ding family gathered around, and some of the more ill-tempered ones even stepped forward and slapped Ding's face hard, cursing loudly: "Why don't you die in the Qi Mansion, but come back to harm us?"

Others angrily accused: "You vicious woman, you wanted to murder your husband's family, but you caused your own family to suffer such a disaster."

The women in the Ding family were full of resentment towards Ding, so naturally they could not treat her well.

They blamed the misfortune of the Ding family on Mrs. Ding, believing that it was her behavior that caused the disaster. Faced with the scolding and scorn of the crowd, Mrs. Ding was speechless and could only silently endure all the pain and grievances.

The women of the Ding family beat Ding severely, lined up to spit at her, and then threw her into the stable.

They sold all of Ding's servants for silver.

The things sent back by the Qi Mansion were divided among the several families.

Ding was in the basement of the stable, shouting, "Water."

No one paid attention to her.

"Hungry."

Still no one paid any attention to her.

Mrs. Ding had nothing to eat or drink, and no one was serving her.

Five days after she was divorced and sent back to her parents' home, she was covered in feces and starved to death!

The Ding family had someone wrap Ding's body in a broken mat and throw it into a pit on a barren mountain.

Mrs. Ding became a negative example for everyone. Many ladies in the mansions used her to educate their daughters, "After you get married, don't be too pretentious like the old woman in the Ding family. She wanted to harm her husband's family but ended up harming her own family instead. In the end, she was divorced and had no one to rely on! When she died, she had no place to be buried."
