Travel to the mountains and make a fortune in silence

After all, no amount of supplements can withstand her reckless actions!

Especially during her pregnancy, she still had sex with Mingliang without restraint, which resulted in several miscarriages due to excessive sexual activity.

To make matters worse, Wu Zihan happens to be the type of person who is particularly prone to conceiving, but every time she gets pregnant, she can't keep the pregnancy.

She got pregnant and miscarried repeatedly, and even a body of iron would find it hard to endure such torment.

Initially, consuming some tonics could slightly improve the body's condition, but as time went on, no matter how much supplementation was given, it could not be restored to its original state, since the body's foundation had already been depleted.

After playing for a while, Wu Zihan felt exhausted. She stopped what she was doing and slowly sat down in a chair to rest.

"Lingniang, Meiniang, you two go to the room and find all the valuables. Then take their clothes and blankets to the kitchen and burn them."

Wu Zihan gave instructions to two of the women without any expression on her face.

These four women were all concubines that Wu Zihan had taken for Mingliang over the past few years.

Four women were brought today, but four concubines from the household did not come with them.

These concubines were all bought by Wu Zihan for Mingliang, and the indentures were all in her hands.

That's why they obeyed Wu Zihan's every word and dared not disobey her in the slightest.

Wu Zihan treated them fairly well, and would specially arrange for them to serve Mingliang for a few days every month.

However, there was one condition that absolutely could not be violated—these concubines were absolutely forbidden from becoming pregnant and giving birth before she successfully gave birth to a son.

As for Li Qian'er, she was a woman that Mingliang secretly kept outside of Wu Zihan's life. Moreover, Li Qian'er had the appearance of a vixen, so how could Wu Zihan tolerate them?

Lingniang and Meiniang began searching through every room, leaving no corner unchecked.

After a careful search, they found a fifty-tael silver note, a dozen or so taels of loose silver, and some glittering gold and silver jewelry.

Lingniang and Meiniang then began to move all the clothes and quilts to the kitchen.

The clothes were piled up like a small hill.

Without hesitation, they stuffed the clothes into the stove and set them on fire.

The blazing fire licked at the clothes, and in no time, these once bright and beautiful garments were reduced to ashes.

Even the oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, rice, and flour in the kitchen were not spared; Lingniang and Meiniang carried them one by one to the courtyard, intending to take them back with them.

Everything is expensive in Beijing, and Wu Zihan's farmland in her hometown simply cannot support so many people.

If Mu Yan hadn't given Wu Zihan a sum of money this time, she probably wouldn't have been able to establish herself in the capital.

Wu Zihan stood in the yard, looking at the mountain of items, and nodded in satisfaction. "Have you taken everything?"

Lingniang quickly replied, "Madam, everything edible has been brought out."

Wu Zihan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile.

However, that smile was quickly masked by the anger on her face.

"Tear off their headwear and clothes, and burn them!" Wu Zihan ordered viciously.

Her voice was filled with anger and resentment, and she wanted to vent her anger on these three women.

It has to be said, Wu Zihan is a ruthless person.

Upon hearing Wu Zihan's order, the women immediately sprang into action.

They ruthlessly stripped the three women of their hair ornaments and clothes, leaving them only with their undergarments and blouses.

The three women watched in horror as their clothes were stripped off; their bodies trembled in the cold wind, utterly stripped of their dignity.

"No, please, Madam, please spare me! I was wrong, I was wrong..."

"Madam, I was wrong, please forgive me, please, just let me go..."

"Ah ah ah..."

The three women screamed in terror, their bodies trembling with extreme fear.

They had just witnessed the women take out the silver and jewelry, and at that time they dared not make a sound for fear of being beaten.

However, they are now facing an even more terrifying situation—these people are actually tearing off their clothes!

In this cold winter, being stripped of one's clothes undoubtedly means freezing to death.

Overwhelmed by despair, the three women finally broke down in tears, begging to be let go.

Wu Zihan ignored their pleas for mercy and, expressionless, directly ordered Lingniang to take all the clothes that had been stripped off to the kitchen and burn them.

Lingniang carried out the order without hesitation, picked up the clothes, turned around and left, leaving the three women shivering in the cold wind.

Wu Zihan and the four women swaggered out of the alley as if nothing had happened.

After they left, three constables hurriedly entered the alley.

When they arrived at the courtyard, they saw several women lying naked on the cold ground, their bodies curled up in a ball from the cold, looking very pitiful.

The leading officer thought to himself, "This woman is quite ruthless."

A strange heat surged within the officers, but they forced themselves to remain calm, using the excuse of investigating a case to disperse the crowd and quickly close the gate.

Before long, strange noises came from the courtyard, as if something was happening...

After leaving Xiaogang Lane, Wu Zihan did not go home as usual, but went straight to where Mingliang was on duty.

She decided to wait there for Mingliang to get off work, and then take him straight home.

"Why is this woman here?" Mingliang hurried out of the gate, intending to go to Xiaogang Alley.

He looked up and caught sight of Wu Zihan standing not far away, and his expression instantly turned rather unpleasant.

Mingliang inwardly groaned. He had originally planned to go to Xiaogang Alley to find Li Qian'er, have a good time with her, and then go home. He never expected to see Wu Zihan, this ugly woman, here.

He didn't want to go back with this woman he loathed; it would be torture.

Just as Mingliang was about to turn and slip away, Wu Zihan's voice suddenly came from behind: "Husband, where are you going?"

Mingliang's heart skipped a beat, knowing he couldn't leave now. He had no choice but to stop, putting on a surprised expression as if he had just seen Wu Zihan: "Eh? Madam? What are you doing here?"

Mingliang suppressed his displeasure and put on a fawning smile as he greeted Wu Zihan.

He hated this woman with a vengeance. If it weren't for the fact that her maternal family had some influence and that he needed her money, he would have divorced this ugly woman long ago.
