Noble Lady

Chapter 265 Escape from the Sea of ​​Suffering

"Don't even think about it! Don't even think about dragging my Dalang down with you to take the blame!"

Liu snatched the divorce agreement, asked for pen, ink, paper and inkstone, signed it for He Minzhi and also put her seal on it.

In duplicate.

After Xue Chenyu confirmed that the signature and seal were correct, he put away his own copy and kept it close to him.

"Madam He, please."

"You, you wait, wait for my son to come back, you'll see what happens to you!" Liu said angrily, "I want to see which family would be willing to accept a slut like you who was kicked out of her husband's family."

"Humph." Xue Chenyu sneered, "If showing off your eloquence can make Old Madam He feel better, then go ahead and curse."

"However, after today, there will be no relationship between us. If we meet on the street and you curse me again, I will turn you over to the authorities."

"..." Liu was so angry that she could only stomp her feet and curse.

Xue Chenyu: "Yuli, close the door. From now on, no one from the He family or their dog is allowed to enter."

Not long after Liu left, Xiaocao also came over.

She was wearing a plain light green dress and didn't look well. She didn't even use any rouge or powder.

"It's only been a few days since we last met, why do you look so bad? Is it because the family is out of money and they're starving you?"

"No, ma'am." Xiao Cao said, and then hurriedly said, "Look at me, I called her the wrong name again. I should call her Aunt Xue."

She bowed solemnly to Xue Chenyu and said, "Congratulations to Aunt Xue for escaping the sea of ​​suffering and regaining her freedom."

"No need to be so polite. You're not feeling well. Please sit down."

Xiaocao smiled happily and sat down with Xue Chenyu.

"A few days ago, the Second Madam and her family moved out of the old house. I had wanted to come over, but I wasn't feeling well at the time, and I was afraid of passing my illness on to Aunt Xue, so I didn't come to disturb her."

Xue Chenyu asked Yuzhu to get a small box and handed it to her. "These are the nourishing things I prepared earlier. They will be good for you. If you don't mind, take them and eat them."

Xiaocao took it and looked at it, and found that it was ginseng slices and Ganoderma lucidum powder, both of which are extremely precious medicinal materials.

"Auntie, I dare not accept this. It's too valuable. I..."

"If you're like this, then I'll just throw it away." Xue Chenyu interrupted her unhappily.

The grass had no choice but to let the spring flowers put it away.

These are all excellent things, how could she dislike them? Madam, oh no, Aunt Xue is really very good to her.

Xiaocao thought so and became more determined in her mind. Suddenly, she knelt down in front of Xue Chenyu.

"Grandma Xue has escaped the sea of ​​suffering and is now a free woman. Originally, I shouldn't bother you with these trivial matters, but after much thought, I still feel that I should let you know."

"What are you doing? If you have anything to say, get up and say it."

Xiao Cao hesitated to speak, "Grandma Xue, I, I'm pregnant."

She had hardly gone out recently. The last time she was caught and locked up by Liu, she got frightened and fell ill. Another reason was that she was not liked by Liu and was too lazy to go out. The most important reason was -

She is also pregnant.

"This is a good thing." There was no anger in Xue Chenyu's eyes, and she did not vent her anger on her just because she was He Minzhi's concubine.

"But I..." Xiaocao found it difficult to speak.

"You don't have to think too much. You were already a member of the He family. It's normal for you to be pregnant with He Minzhi's child. I won't make things difficult for you. Don't worry."

"No, that's not what I meant. I meant..."

Xue Chenyu showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, "Then you are worried that he will not be able to get out of prison, and you and your widow will have a hard time in the future. Don't worry, I will let him go, and he will have a chance to make a comeback."

"From now on, you should be your aunt. Remember what I told you. Even if Ji Minrou's child is born, it will be nameless and without status, but you do have a status after all. You are different."

Tears welled up in Xiaocao's eyes, and she banged her head heavily on the wooden floor. "Aunt Xue, I feel so sorry for you. If you let him go, how can you ever calm the resentment in your heart?"

Yuzhu and the others, who were already furious, now felt guilty after hearing Xiaocao's words, and their eyes were filled with mist.

"Help Aunt Zhao up quickly. A pregnant woman shouldn't be so impulsive."

Xue Chenyu pulled her to her side and said, "Xiaocao, remember, I will not let He Minzhi go. Liu is old, and she won't be in charge of the family for long, so you must do your best to keep the He family in your own hands."

"As long as you can control the He family in your own hands, and as long as you can give birth to a child in the future, no one can shake your position in the He family."

"Even if He Minzhi falls in the future, as long as it doesn't lead to the confiscation of his family and the extermination of his clan, you will still be able to support yourself and your children. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Aunt Xue, Xiaocao understands."

Xiaocao listened to these words sincerely.

When He Minzhi was about to be killed for his many evil deeds and his entire family was buried with him, Xiaocao sent him to the west with a bowl of medicine.

The main culprit was beheaded as an apology, and his family was spared from the disaster, so the other members of the He family were also saved.

However, that was a long time ago.

……

After sending Xiaocao out, Xue Chenyu ordered the craftsmen to completely seal the door connecting Furongju and Mingyu Pavilion to the He family, and never have any contact with them again.

Su Ying had already arranged for the dowry to be transported to the house under Xue Chenyu's name, and the warehouse was empty.

At this moment, several maids were busy packing all the supplies.

Yuzhu hired a few more carriages.

In Furongjuli, except for the things in the cellar, everything else that could be moved was moved away.

As for the new furniture I bought when I got married last year, I won’t move it.

If I sell the house later, the furniture will be sold at half price or given away for free.

Xue Chenyu didn't want it anymore either.

Xue Chenyu had already moved some things back to the Marquis' Mansion. The remaining things, along with the master and servants, could be accommodated in a few carriages.

She asked someone to take the things back to the Marquis' Mansion first, and she also went to Jingzhao Prefecture.

Arrived at the Marquis' Mansion.

Xue Chenyu found that the Marquis' Mansion was bustling inside and out.

When she got off the car, she was stunned for a moment, not quite realizing what was going on.

It's impossible that her parents already knew about her divorce before she even told them?

Uncle Fu directed the servants to help carry things. When he turned around, he saw Xue Chenyu still standing there in a daze.

"Young lady, why are you still in a daze? The Marquis and his wife are waiting for you in the flower hall to eat mooncakes."

"Eat mooncakes?" Xue Chenyu didn't react for a moment.

Uncle Fu grinned and said, "Miss, have you been so busy that you forgot that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th?"

It’s already Mid-Autumn Festival.

Xue Chenyu woke up as if from a dream and walked inside in a daze.

For the past few months, she has indeed been living in a dream.

Even at this moment, she felt it was unreal.

Suddenly, she missed a step and fell forward without warning.

"Miss." Qiuhua and Xiahe supported her on the left and right.

There is also a Polygonatum behind it.

Yumei and Yuli were still working hard to move things.

Xue Chenyu looked up and saw the gilded plaque above her head that read "Wu'an Marquis Mansion" and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

She really left the He family!

She really escaped from the sea of ​​suffering!

She was truly free!

From now on, the sky is the limit.

She will fight her own way!
