The merchant's rebirth led to the complete downfall of the Marquis's mansion.

The Jiang family benefited, and Jiang Qianqian lost her usefulness. After hearing that they had been kicked out of the Chen family, she didn't even need to return home.

Jiang Qianqian was caught off guard by this situation, and everyone in the village was stunned when they arrived.

But she didn't know what else to do besides cry.

Compared to Sharon Chan's gloomy demeanor, her performance was quite straightforward.

Chen's father hired people to watch over them, so they couldn't run away even if they wanted to.

Just then, Qu Jing unexpectedly came knocking on the door.

Qu Jing was simple-minded and thought that marrying Jiang Qianqian was a sure thing, so he obediently went home to prepare.

As a result, he waited and waited but nothing came, so he had no choice but to go to the Jiang family to check. The Jiang family was ruthless; they kept it a secret and didn't reveal a single word.

Qu Jing still thought the date was wrong and waited foolishly at home until Jiang Qianqian returned with a big belly, and he learned about it from others.

The Jiang family wasn't afraid of what others would say, and they held a grand and lavish wedding.

Qu Jing had been there before, but he was outnumbered and thrown out by the Jiang family.

After Jiang Qianqian got married, he continued to cause trouble. Only then did the Jiang family tell him that he could seek compensation from Jiang Qianqian and her husband's family, so he came to them.

His goal is compensation; he doesn't care who he asks for it from, as long as he can get it.

At that moment, he stood at the entrance of the manor, shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Chen Minzhi, you coward! You bastard who stole someone else's wife and then hid away!"

"Come out!"

"And Jiang Qianqian, you slut! You actually seduced your own cousin behind my back!"

……

This place isn't in the bustling city center, so there aren't many people here, but there are still people here!

It's still the busy farming season, and farmers are all in the fields, with many people coming and going.

Not long after the commotion in Qujing, some busybodies happened to pass by, wanting to hear what he was saying.

Jiang Qianqian was filled with shame and indignation. Chen Minzhi told her to handle the situation or she would be kicked out. Jiang Qianqian dared not disobey and had no choice but to have someone open the door.

She was the principal wife, but Chen Minzhi didn't like her, so her status was low, a fact she only now understood.

Before marrying her, Chen Minzhi had already taken her maid, Hongyuan, as a concubine. She thought she was just a concubine and didn't care.

I never imagined I almost became a concubine, and now I don't even have the status of a concubine.

She had always thought that all couples in the world were one, sharing both honor and disgrace, just like her aunt. Although her uncle did not love her, he still gave her dignity and was a very respectable wife.

But everything changed with Chen Minzhi. He didn't respect her or give her any dignity; she was even treated worse than a concubine.

According to Chan Man-chi, she doesn't want to stay and can leave at any time.

He didn't seem to care much about the child in her belly, and once he almost kicked her out of the village.

How could she dare? She's married and can't go back home. If she's divorced, how can she survive?

Of course, she wouldn't dare make a scene.

After all, she not only failed to bring back her dowry, but also disrupted his plans.

It's understandable that Chan Man-chi dislikes her.

Now that Qujing has arrived, it's... somewhat reasonable to push her out.

Jiang Qianqian opened the door, and the sounds from Qu Jing outside abruptly stopped with the creaking of the door.

"Oh! Is this my ex-fiancée?" Qu Jing teased casually from the doorway.

"Come in!" Jiang Qianqian glanced at the people outside and stepped aside to make way.

"Why should I go in! I have nothing to hide! I'll say it right here!"

Jiang Qianqian knew perfectly well he was putting on airs, so she had no choice but to threaten him.

"If you still want your money, come in!!!"

Qu Jing still walked in. He wasn't unprepared; he was accompanied by two men, his fellow villagers who came to support him.

(And also to prevent him from denying his debts and being beaten with a sack.)

Jiang Qianqian ignored her and led the person into the courtyard.

Just as the three from Qujing were admiring the courtyard, Jiang Qianqian took a box out of the house.

Qu Jing couldn't wait to open it, and his face immediately darkened when he saw the loose silver coins inside.

"Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar? This is all you've got?"

"Didn't you do any research before you came? My betrothal gifts were all confiscated, and we were kicked out by the Chen family. We're lucky if we have any spare change now."

Jiang Qianqian almost burst into tears as she spoke.

If she hadn't been pregnant, the Chen family wouldn't have provided her with any maids, and the servants in the house had been transferred away. Chen's father planned to make them fend for themselves and find food in the fields.

If it weren't for the fact that Chen Minzhi's body hadn't yet recovered and she was pregnant, they would have already gotten out of bed. How could she possibly bear it?

"Pah! Who are you trying to fool! A young master of an official's family, broke? Qujing, let's go! Search him!"

Jiang Qianqian stared in disbelief as Qu Jing and the other two entered her room.

"This is my room! You can't come in!" Jiang Qianqian tried to stop them, but was pushed away. If it weren't for the maid next to her supporting her, she probably would have fallen.

This was the first time she had ever seen such robbers. How could this be allowed?

Jiang Qianqian sent her maid to find Chen Minzhi.

"Go! Go find the eldest young master!"

The maidservant immediately ran out, not daring to delay even a moment.

When Chen Minzhi arrived with her men, they had already ransacked Jiang Qianqian's house.

If they couldn't find silver, they would take jewelry; if they didn't have much jewelry, they would take any decent silk fabrics, and even decorative items.

They were prepared to move the table if it weren't so heavy.

The three of them, carrying large and small bags, were about to leave when they bumped into Chen Minzhi, who was rushing over.

Chen Minzhi brought two servants, but they were no match for the two farmers from Qujing. In no time, they even beat Chen Minzhi up.

The three from Qujing swept through the area as they went, and by the time they left, they had nothing left to carry.

Chen Minzhi went out and asked the nearby tenant farmers to stop them, but no one paid any attention, allowing Qu Jing and the others to escape.

Chen Minzhi and Jiang Qianqian, who were already impoverished, are now facing even greater hardship.

The three from Qujing walked down from the village, fantasizing about going to the pawnshop to exchange their silver.

The three were halfway there when suddenly several people jumped out, took their belongings in a few quick movements, and even hit them on the head with a stick.

When the three of them woke up again, they had arrived at the Jingzhao Yin (prefecture of the capital).

Qu Jing was sentenced to fifty strokes of the cane for robbery. When his property was lost and he could not explain its whereabouts, he was thrown into prison.

The two men who went with him were also each given twenty strokes of the cane.

They lost their property and their freedom without knowing anything about it.

Their belongings were taken to the suburbs by Erjiu and given to the orphans there.

Nothing brings more joy than robbing the rich to help the poor.

Having dealt with them, Erjiu quickly returned to report.

……

At this moment, Qin Yao's letter also arrived, much to her delight.

Chen Yiru didn't pay attention at first, but when she opened it, she became excited and hurriedly asked someone to find Yu Zhi.

This is a great remedy!!
