and finally found the Zong family after asking for directions. 。At the thought of soon getting my hands on those five taels of silver, my mood finally brightened a bit. When I entered the house, I eve...The old patriarch gave his eldest son a hard smack on the head. “Things aren’t done yet, and you're already thinking about changing women”
"After all, the Liu family has been your wife for decades and gave birth to a pair of children for you. She hasn't committed any serious crimes. What reason do you have to divorce her"
Zongping snorted, "Doesn't it mean a husband can't divorce his wife unless she commits seven major offenses Last time she scratched me up like that Who would dare continue living with such a tigress"
"Now she is old, ugly and a troublemaker."
The old patriarch waved his hand impatiently, not wanting to deal with his son's trivial matters. However, he was also uneasy about Mrs. Liu leaving at this juncture.
"Go and see what your wife is up to."
Sohei looked incredibly displeased. He had just returned from outside, fuming with anger, and now his father was asking him to run another errand.
Lao San spends his whole day at home doing nothing. What gives him the right
The old man saw that his eldest son had fallen ill with laziness again, and kicked him hard, “Go now!”
Zongping had no choice but to go out and follow Liu Shi.
At first, Zong Pingkang thought Liu Shi was just going out to chat with someone. Unexpectedly, he followed her and found she was heading up the mountain. He immediately perked up.
This dead woman has been acting strange lately. Ever since Xiao Hu moved out, she hasn't talked to him much at all.
Is she still in touch with Xiao Hu secretly
This isn't right, son isn't just hers. Why does she get to take all the benefits It's not fair!
Zong Ping followed Liu Shi up the mountain with all his might, and sure enough, he saw her sneaking towards the house where Zong Hu was now living.
Only today Zong Hu was taking Wang Yan'er to help out at Shang Fang Jin Xiu's house, so the whole family wasn't home.
Liu knew they weren't home today, that's why she specifically came when the two of them were out.
She crouched down and, under the stone at the house's doorstep, retrieved the spare key to the Zonghu family's home. She effortlessly unlocked their front door.
Then one person went in.
Yesterday, she saw Xiao Hu carrying many large boxes back into the dark. Those were such good wooden boxes; there must be something valuable inside.
She was just purely curious, that's all.
Liu knew very well that she absolutely could not offend her son and daughter-in-law now. Her own husband was useless, and if she offended her son and daughter-in-law, she would have no one to rely on when she got old.
So she couldn't contain her curiosity and decided to take a peek inside the box while they were away. She definitely didn't plan on stealing anything.
Though Liu knew what she was doing was wrong, a thrill of excitement coursed through her. When she opened the box, her heart pounded in her chest with a mixture of fear and anticipation.
When she saw what was inside the box, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"Goodness gracious, so many good things!"
"The fabric, it's actually high-quality silk, and there are porcelain dishes, snacks...so many delicious things."
After several boxes were opened, Lady Liu was completely lost inside. She wished she could live in a box instead.
Inside one of the boxes was a small jewelry box containing several ornaments such as jade hairpins and bracelets.
This was specially prepared by Su Yusheng for Yu Lian. He still remembered it, and if Zong Yu Lian was willing, he could marry her as a concubine at any time.
It's a pity that Fang Jinshu didn't get to open the entire box after bringing it back.
The woman from the countryside, from the Liu family, had never seen anything like it. Although the jewelry Su Yusheng prepared wasn't particularly valuable, considering his status, he certainly wouldn't have been so impolite as to prepare something too cheap.
Each piece of jewelry is worth at least several dozen taels of silver.
This was enough to make Liu Shi lose herself.
Her eyes gleamed with greed, she completely forgot her original intentions when she opened the door. She hurriedly put on the jewelry, admiring herself from left to right, feeling a surge of pleasure.
He didn't notice any sounds coming from outside.
Zongping waited for a while but didn't see anyone come out. He couldn't hold back any longer. After all, he was an impatient person and followed them in.
I didn't expect to see the Liu family wearing gold and silver as soon as I came in, with several golden hairpins in her hair. Just these hairpins were amazing; at a glance, you could tell they were very valuable!
Liu shi suddenly confronted Zongping Kang, leaving them both stunned. Liu shi quickly shoved things into a box and slammed it shut.
"You, you... how could you be here"tch you, or I'll skin you alive!"They didn't shout before, but once they did, the boy ran even faster.Zongyu watched Fangyuan run away, a smirk playing on his lips. This trip wasn't in vain after all....
