Old Lady Shen held her waist and ran towards this side with her teeth bared.

He was afraid that if he was a little late, the reputation his son had worked so hard to build would be completely ruined.

After saying this, he kicked Tangning again, feeling unsatisfied.

"Why don't you get up quickly? Why are you acting like a mother? When you hit me just now, you were stronger than a bull!"

Apparently, Mrs. Shen also thought Tangning was pretending.

Tang Ning in the space frowned and held his breath, his originally pale face instantly turning purple.

"not good!"

Tie Sheng quickly opened his medicine box and gave Tang Ning a few injections.

After seeing his complexion gradually recover, he frowned and spoke:

"If you don't wake up tonight, prepare for your death."

"what?"

Shen Lianzhi was dumbfounded. When she first started beating people, she was as strong as a bull and she was not at a disadvantage even when fighting two people at the same time. Why did he not believe it?

Dujuan was also dumbfounded. This was not what she expected.

She didn't have time to say anything yet.

Tears are welling up in my eyes, but I don't know whether to let them fall or not.

Originally, she thought of asking her mother to prepare a rope at home and then hang someone up to perform the show when they arrived.

She was responsible for bringing the person back and letting everyone know that Tang Ning's nonsense had almost caused a death, forcing her mother to risk her life to prove her innocence.

Once Tangning apologized and explained everything to the Song family, the matter would be over.

Why did she faint?

She fainted first, how could I faint too?

"He wasn't beaten to death, was he?"

The surroundings fell into silence, and one person couldn't help but speak.

"I just saw it. Aunt Shen kicked me so hard that my face turned purple."

"If this person dies, wouldn't that be murder?"

"Don't talk nonsense. How can teaching your own wife a lesson be considered murder?"

As soon as the person said this, he noticed that other people were looking at him strangely.

"I'm not wrong."

He muttered something in dissatisfaction and left the crowd.

Tang Ning didn't care what others said about her and went to the place where Gu Mufeng had slept before.

The man had left, and the bloodstains on the ground showed that he had been there.

The bloodstain wouldn't dry, so Tang Ning found a piece of cloth to wipe it briefly and then rinsed it again.

Then he picked up something that looked like a purse, with a lifelike orchid embroidered on it.

When I opened my purse, it was full of small change.

Tang Ning accepted it without hesitation. This was what she deserved. Her potion was being used less and less these days and was extremely precious.

Tang Ning ignored what was happening outside and picked up eggs from the chicken coop, but there was a big commotion outside.

Dujuan followed the Shen family back, held her hand and leaned against the head of the bed, crying.

She thought that if Tang Ning was just pretending, she would wake up naturally.

But her eyes hurt from crying, and this man still had his eyes closed. Could he have really fainted?

The Shen family frowned and discussed outside the house.

"No, we can't send it to town!"

Old Lady Shen was the first to disagree:

"The road to town is far, and we have to rent an ox cart. It costs money to see a doctor and get medicine. Our family just split up, and we don't have the money to pay for treatment!"

"Then let her wait to die at home?"

Shen Lianzhi was also very annoyed. Things that were originally easy to solve were now becoming more and more troublesome.

The villagers might be circling around his house now, waiting to see what's going on.

Old Lady Shen lowered her eyes and pursed her lips without saying anything. After a while, she spoke:

"I've said it before, you can't marry a girl who has been spoiled. Not only does she not understand the job, but she also has a lot of trouble."

Old Man Shen sat aside with his eldest son, feeling tired and not wanting to talk.

They got up early in the morning to work in the fields and did not wait for anyone to bring them breakfast.

Instead, the villagers came shouting at him on the ridges of the fields, saying that his wife's son had beaten his daughter-in-law to death.

He was so scared that his legs went weak and his mind went blank. It was his eldest son who carried him back.

"Send someone to notify the second son's wife's family. If there's anything wrong with her, let them take a last look."

Old Man Shen instantly came up with a good idea and threw the hot potato away.

The second son's father-in-law had only one daughter. He originally thought that if his son married the county magistrate's niece, he would be able to rise to a high position.

Who would have thought that after getting married, the county magistrate would turn him away several times when he visited the county magistrate, and even ridiculed him at the doorman's hands.

The second son was so angry that he almost cut off all contact with his wife's family and did not allow her to return to her parents' home.

If the person is fine, you can take this opportunity to ease the relationship.

If anything happens, her family will surely not sit idly by and someone will pay for her medical treatment.

"Dad, why don't you let Big Brother go? I still have to take care of Tangning."

Shen Lianzhi didn't really want to go. He always hated his father-in-law for looking down on others.

After passing the imperial examination, he did not even return home, but went directly to his father-in-law's house, ridiculed his father-in-law, and broke off relations with him.

Looking for the original owner’s parents?

Tangning was so frightened that she quickly woke up and shouted outside:

"Don't bother my parents. I won't treat you anymore. Shen Lianzhi, I want to divorce you!"

No one expected that the first thing Tangning did after waking up was to ask for a divorce.

This was the second time Shen Lianzhi had heard this sentence today. He looked at Tangning with a look of helplessness.

"Tangning, could you please stop making trouble?"

"Divorce! Impossible!"

Seeing that Tangning had woken up, Old Lady Shen instantly became arrogant. She kicked open the door, pointed at Tangning, and angrily yelled:

"My son is a scholar now. You want to divorce him and ruin his reputation? You're dreaming! Second brother, divorce her! My Shen family can't afford a daughter-in-law like her!"

"Second brother, don't say such things anymore."

Old Man Shen was unhappy and didn't want to go into the house, so he talked through the door.

The second son is the pride of his family, and he cannot let his second son have a bad reputation.

After thinking for a while, he continued:

"Second brother, your wife is sick and confused. Let her stay at home and work hard. Don't go out unless necessary."

Shen Lianzhi on the side said nothing, obviously agreeing with his father's idea.

Dujuan on the side was extremely anxious.

She has been away for so long, and she doesn’t know what’s going on at home. Her mother is still waiting for her.

I couldn't help but wipe my tears and remind him:

"Brother Shen, my mother is still lying in bed. I'm going back first. I'll go to the Song family and kneel down in front of them and beg them to clear my family's name."

Shen Lianzhi has been tormented by this series of events since he came back, and he almost forgot why he came back.

Now that Dujuan said it, he suddenly remembered it and a sense of justice surged in his heart.

But thinking of Tangning still being ill, he frowned and said:

"Forget it, I'll take you home. I'll also apologize to the Song family on Tangning's behalf and clear Aunt Lin's name."

"Thank you, Brother Shen! But isn't this too much trouble?"

Before Old Lady Shen could get angry, Du Juan wiped her tears and looked at Shen Lianzhi with gratitude and hope.

This is fine, but they can't drag Tang Ning along. If she continues like this, she'll faint all the time, and if she dies, they won't be able to explain themselves even if they are right.

Shen Lianzhi is a scholar, so the Song family has to give him some face.

"No, my second son is a scholar now. How can he go to the butcher's house and apologize?"
