Divorce her scumbag husband, marry the war king, and the hot wife gets rich through her spatial abil
Chapter 71 He Can't Wait
Before we knew it, it was December, and another heavy snow fell, even heavier than the last one.
Without Yunpeng, that spendthrift, to clean up, the villagers were trapped in their homes again, and could no longer hear the buzzing of flies.
Xiao Nan and his family of three lived a simple life.
The Jiang family had to work every day, so they didn't go home but stayed at the shop. Fortunately, there weren't many family members, so they had enough space.
The villagers didn't go to town, so nobody knew about it.
His family's business is doing well. The customers are all traveling merchants who go all over the country and love to try all kinds of fresh food.
I fell in love with it at first bite, and gradually more and more people came to eat there, including families from the town.
Most of them are wealthy, and some are from the Fang family.
Fang was suffering from an upset stomach and had little appetite, but after eating dumplings from the Jiang family, she would send someone to buy them almost every few days.
After Zhang Tingyu learned about this, she went to the dumpling restaurant herself to buy some, only to find that it was owned by the Jiang family.
He greeted the Jiang family warmly, still appearing as a humble and polite scholar. If the Jiang family didn't know who he really was, they would have been deceived by his hypocritical facade.
But in business, harmony brings wealth. What Zhang Lao Er does is his business. If you open your doors to do business, you have to accept all kinds of people.
I bought a serving of dumplings, and they even gave me half a serving extra, not letting Zhang Lao Er get away with anything.
Watching Zhang Lao Er walk away, Jiang Shi spat lightly, only to be glared at by her husband.
"Guests are always welcome. He is him, and we are us. You and Wang may be on good terms, but the feud between Miss Xiao and the Zhang family is another matter."
“A friend’s enemy is my enemy. I don’t want to be an ungrateful person.”
"You shouldn't do that kind of thing until it's absolutely necessary. If Miss Xiao is really in trouble, then we can step in, understand?"
"I understand, I'm just so angry."
"Let's make dumplings. Don't forget, we still have two children in the family."
"Ugh!"
Zhang Tingyu bought dumplings and delivered them to Fang Shi. On the surface, Fang Shi was overjoyed, but when she thought of his actions, the dumplings she put in her mouth immediately tasted bland, and the nausea made her vomit.
"Take it, you eat it. I haven't had much of an appetite these past few days."
"Is Madam pregnant?"
Madam Fang gently shook her head: "No, I just went to the clinic to have my pulse checked yesterday."
Zhang Tingyu began to doubt her own abilities. She and Zhao had only been intimate once, so this couldn't be possible.
If Fang had her own child, then he would have secured his position in the Fang family. Could it be that Fang is deliberately saying she doesn't have one?
So he asked, "Doesn't Madam like dumplings?"
Fang pouted and said, "Even if you like to eat, you can't eat it all the time. You'll get tired of it eventually. I don't want to eat today."
"Do you want something sour? I'll go see if they sell sugar candy outside?"
"Too sour, I don't want to eat it."
"Would you like something spicy?"
"I do not want to eat."
She doesn't eat sour food, nor does she eat spicy food, so she probably isn't pregnant. He looked at Fang Shi, who was neither fat nor thin, quite suitable for pregnancy.
Could it be that Ms. Fang herself has a problem? Is she unable to conceive?
Thinking of this, he felt a surge of joy.
If that's the case, I can just tell a lie, adopt one, and bring my child to the Fang family.
In that case, wouldn't it be better to directly inherit the Fang family's assets?
Zhang Lao Er had this one good quality: he didn't show his emotions and kept everything to himself. He showed concern for Fang Shi and planned to stay and sleep with her.
Unexpectedly, he was rejected by the Fang family. Although he was angry, he did not show it and left after talking for a while.
Upon arriving at his lodgings, Zhang Lao Er was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table, wishing he could burn the house down.
He didn't want to sit idly by and wait for his death; the days were too long, and he couldn't wait any longer.
So he came up with a plan. Since the Fang family no longer looked after him, he might as well go to the county town and see if he could find a family that suited him and was better than the Fang family. He would then immediately get rid of the Fang family.
However, the thought of the Qiao family in the county town made him somewhat timid.
Gritting his teeth, he still walked to the official road and took a car to the county town. No matter what, he wanted to see what would happen and find another way out for himself.
When Fang learned that he had left, she didn't care. But after she learned about Zhang Lao Er's affair with Zhao Shi, she completely lost hope in him.
She stroked her belly, vowing to raise her child well and never let the child know that he had such a shameless father.
After Zhang Lao Er entered the county town, he found his friend and stayed at his house.
Besides studying together, the two would go for walks together. He was very good at interpersonal relationships and often bought things for his friends and family, so he was very popular.
Zhang Lao Er bought several sets of clothes at a clothing store in the county town. After wearing them, he looked even more refined and elegant, like a young master from a wealthy family.
On the street, he attracted the attention of many girls.
However, he didn't find what he wanted, but he didn't lose heart and continued his search.
As he passed by the brothel, he caught a glimpse of a celestial beauty smiling sweetly at him from upstairs.
Her soul was immediately captivated, and she stood there dumbfounded.
The two locked eyes, and the woman gave him a soft, flirtatious wink before turning and going back into the house.
It took Zhang Tingyu a while to look away. Instead of rushing inside, he asked the burly man at the door:
"Excuse me, who was the girl upstairs just now?"
Seeing his fine clothes, the burly man said, "That's our top courtesan, Jade Girl, from Mengxiang Garden. She costs a hundred taels of silver a night. If you want to get to know her, go inside."
Zhang Lao Er was not intimidated, nor did he go in; he simply smiled.
"I have other matters to attend to today, I will come another day!"
He spoke with such ease and grace, like a dashing young master from a wealthy family, that the burly man looked at him with new eyes, and the girl upstairs fell in love with him.
It is said that prostitutes are heartless, but if they truly fall in love, they will disregard everything else.
In the capital city, at the Meng family mansion, Master Meng, dressed in a smart outfit, with his gray hair, sat upright in his study.
A man in black knelt before him: "Your Highness, the young master has been found."
"Where is he?"
Master Meng immediately lost all composure, stood up abruptly, and asked anxiously.
Where is Fei'er?
"Someone has seen the young prince in Fengzhou, but he is elusive and we haven't been able to pinpoint his exact location yet."
"Quickly, send more people and find him at all costs."
"Yes!"
The man in black left, and the old prince laughed loudly, "Good, good! Heaven has not forsaken the Meng family! Heaven has not forsaken the Meng family! Fei'er, your grandfather has finally found you."
After saying this, he shed tears of emotion.
Meanwhile, in the living room of the Xiao family in the capital, several people were also discussing matters.
“Master, Shuang’er doesn’t want to marry that missing young prince from the Meng family. She loves Prince Ming. You can’t be confused. The young prince has been missing for a year. We can’t let our Shuang’er be a widow.”
The head of the Xiao family frowned and sighed, saying, "The Meng family has been the only sons in the family for generations. They are princes and war gods of different surnames in our Dragon Kingdom. They have inherited their positions for generations and enjoyed great glory. They are also a thorn in the emperor's side. Alas, if Nan'er hadn't disappeared back then, she would have been the daughter-in-law of the Meng family."
"Then let's look for her. If we find her, great. If not, we'll find a goddaughter for her to marry into the family."
"No, that's a prince. You can't just find someone to take his place in the marriage. This marriage was bestowed by the Emperor. If the person is never seen alive or dead, the Emperor will not rescind the decree."
"What can we do? What can we do? If only we had known this would happen, if only we had known..."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'll send someone to find Nan'er right away."
"She was lost in Fengzhou, so we'll just look for her there. If we can't find her, then our Shuang'er will be... sob sob sob."
Mrs. Xiao cried sadly. Over the years, they had lived a happy life and never thought about looking for their lost eldest daughter. If it weren't for Xiao Shuang's marriage, they would never have mentioned it.
At this moment, Murong Yunpeng received the message and opened the paper to read it.
"So that's how it is. No wonder the Xiao family never mentions it. They're too ashamed to bring it up. Just as my sister-in-law guessed, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family was forced to change clothes and be pushed out by Madam Xiao in order to protect her father. It's similar to how my sister-in-law was tricked into coming home by the Zhang family."
