Chapter 202: relief
Chapter 202 Liberation
Ling Dong bent her knees and said, "Second Grandma, please come with me."
Wang did not expect that when she asked to borrow two taels of silver, Gu Huayu would ask her to create a written receipt.
Moreover, she asked her servants to give her a written certificate and give her money.
She remembered that when Zhang Xiaohua was in Shicheng, her monthly salary was two taels of silver.
Honestly, in Gu Huayu's eyes, she is not even as good as a servant?
Everything cannot be considered carefully. The more Wang thinks about it, the more angry he becomes, the more angry and aggrieved he becomes.
No one in the Gu family regards her as a human being.
Wang glared at Gu Huayu angrily.
Gu Huayu met Wang's gaze and asked, "What? Second sister-in-law doesn't want to borrow it anymore?"
Wang took a deep breath and said angrily: "Borrow!"
Landong bent his knees again and said, “Please come with my slave, Second Grandma.”
Gu Chengjuan watched Wang and Liandong walk away, "Xiaoyu, it's not like you don't know who she is, why do you still want to lend her money?
This woman is so capable, you can't set a precedent for her and let her taste the sweetness. Otherwise, who knows how many things will happen to her in the future? "
Gu Huayu looked at Wang's back and replied. "She is already extremely angry when Lonicera is asked to write a note for her today. This makes her even more uncomfortable than not lending her money."
"Uncomfortable? You think highly of her. A person like her is shameless, so what use is the letter to her?" Gu Chengjuan curled her lips and said in disapproval.
Gu Huayu consoled her: "Okay, don't be angry about the two taels of silver. The shop is about to open, so we have to make the fragrant dew quickly."
When it came to business, Gu Chengjuan put Wang's matters aside and nodded in agreement, "Yes, I'll go right away."
Gu Huayu reminded: "Let Hongxia, Chaoyang and the others practice their makeup skills."
Gu Chengjuan said without looking back: "I understand."
Wang was led by Liandong, handed the written certificate to Shi Niang, paid two taels of silver from Shi Niang, and then took Feilian out of Wuwutong Lane.
The two of them were standing on the street. Fei Lian asked, "Second Grandma, where should we go shopping?"
Wang asked: "Do you know where the opera troupe is in the capital?"
When Wang was at home, she heard an old man from the family who was walking around the streets say that the most lively place in the city was to watch the opera troupe perform.
The year she moved to a new house, her family invited a troupe to perform in an opera. She was about to give birth at that time, and it was a very cold weather. She couldn't stand the cold, so she only stood under the stage for a moment before being pulled into the house by Gu Chengnan.
On the way to the capital, Wang's main concern was that after arriving in the capital, she must watch a few plays.
Fei Lian shook her head, bent her knees and said, "Go back to Second Grandma, I don't know."
Wang said unhappily: "Aren't you always in the capital? Why don't you know where the troupe is?"
Fei Lian bowed her head and replied: "The opera troupes in the capital are all invited to sing at home by their masters. Others sing in the elephant shed..."
Wang's eyes lit up, and before Fei Lian could finish speaking, she hurriedly asked: "Elephant shed Gouba? What kind of place is this?"
Fei Lian lowered her hands and replied: "There are many elephant sheds in the south of the city, but women from wealthy families will not go there."
Mrs. Wang lowered her lips and said, "Families with a rich family can invite opera troupes to sing operas themselves. Of course, there is no need to go to such a place.
We are not from a wealthy family, so we don’t need to pay attention to these small details. Isn’t the south of the city far from here? How do we get there? "
Fei Lian bent her knees and said, "It's a little far away. Second Grandma is waiting for me here. I'll go back to the house and ask someone to drive the car. Let's go there in the car."
Wang urged: "Then hurry up."
Fei Lian nodded in agreement, "Okay. The slave will be here soon."
Soon, Feilian came out in a car. Mrs. Wang jumped into the car and urged the driver to go faster.
Before Wang arrived at the south of the city, Hua Da received the letter and turned around to give Han Shi instructions.
Han Shi got the order and went to the south of the city.
Gu Huayu prepared the fragrant dew for Concubine Li and asked Qingyu to deliver it to the princess's house.
Next, Gu Huayu still ran on both sides of Maxing Street and Taoyuan Street.
On this day, Gu Huayu had just returned to Mingyue Pavilion. Qingyu came over and reported: "Miss, Mr. Wang is clamoring over there to make peace with the second master."
Gu Huayu thought she heard wrongly and asked again: "Who? Mr. Wang wants to make peace with his second brother?"
Qingyu nodded and said, "Yes, Mrs. Wang went out in the morning and returned to Wutong Lane before lunch. She asked someone to go to the village to call the second master back, and then make peace with the second master."
Gu Huayu asked: "Where is Uncle Hua? Are you back? Let Uncle Hua come see me."
Qingyu shook his head and said, "Uncle Hua has discussed matters with the owners of Jiangnan Trading Company and has not returned yet."
Gu Huayu nodded, "I understand, I'll go take a look."
Gu Huayu returned to Wutong Lane, and when she was still at the door, she heard Wang's rude voice, "Didn't you call Gu Chengnan?
I’m telling you, call Gu Chengnan back as soon as possible. I want to make peace with him and never stay with him for another day. "
Gu Huayu turned around and asked the concierge, "Have you gone to inform your second brother?"
The porter leaned forward and said, "Go back to Miss, Shi Niang has arranged for Junjie to pick up the second master."
Gu Huayu nodded and walked towards the yard.
Seeing Gu Huayu come in, Mrs. Wang was still arrogant. She put her hands on her hips and said to Gu Huayu: "Gu Xiaoyu, hurry up and call your second brother back. I want to make peace with him."
Gu Huayu smiled and said, "I've already sent someone to pick up my second brother. Just wait."
Gu Huayu walked to the corridor and sat down, and asked curiously: "You have been unwilling to reconcile for so many years. Why do you suddenly think about it now?"
Wang sat down opposite Gu Huayu, put her legs on the corridor chair, and snorted coldly: "I used to be blind, so I would follow Gu Chengnan wholeheartedly.
What's the benefit of being with him? Apart from being a bull and a horse, he treated me like a human being?
Since I was already so old in the first year of junior high school, he clung to the things that happened back then and made me stay a widow for so many years.
Gu Chengnan looked dull and silent. Huh, your mind is smaller than the head of a needle.
I will no longer serve him, so I want him to make peace with her as soon as possible, and let each of them be well. "
Gu Huayu asked: "Heli, can you leave the first grade of junior high school?"
“Bah!” Mr. Wang spat hard.
Gu Huayu looked at the phlegm flying out, and all the hairs on her body stood up. She felt sick and got goosebumps. The phlegm from Wang's mouth seemed to be spitting on her heart.
Gu Huayu turned to look at Lonicera.
When Lonicera saw it, he quickly called for someone to come and clean up the phlegm.
Gu Huayu handed over the alcohol he brought with him, and Lonicera took it and sprayed it, then wiped it with a white handkerchief three times. Only then did Gu Huayu's complexion return to normal from paleness.
Wang watched the movements of the group of people in astonishment, and finally turned her attention to Gu Huayu.
Gu Huayu didn't wait for her to speak, and said with a stern face: "If you spit again, I will have you thrown out."
"Gu Xiaoyu, what do you think? Who didn't spit like this when we were in Shangtai Village? You have only been in the city for a few days and you are already very particular?" Wang Shi glanced at Gu Huayu and said with disgust.
Landong saw a thin layer of sweat forming on Gu Huayu's forehead and hurriedly said to Chaoyang: "Go bring a cup of tea."
After saying that, Lonicera yelled at Wang: "Shut up!"
Landong has been with Gu Huayu these years and knows that spitting is a taboo against Gu Huayu.
Gu Huayu can tolerate festering and smelly wounds, but she can’t stand other people’s spitting.
Wang was stunned by Lonicera's roar. It took her a while to come to her senses, and she jumped up and yelled at Lonicera.
“Zhang Xiaohua, you little prodigal, how dare you yell at me? I won’t beat you to death today.”
Wang cursed and rushed towards Lonicera. Gu Huayu stretched out her hand to pull Lonicera.
Wang failed to pounce on Honeysuckle and rushed forward to the pillar, causing a "thud" sound.
The servants around him covered their mouths and laughed.
Wang covered her forehead and took two steps back, turned around and wanted to attack Lonicera.
Gu Huayu stood up and said, "If you dare to touch Lonicera again, I will have you thrown out."
Wang looked at the women around her, did not dare to move, and sat down again.
Wang didn't sit until Gu Chengnan came back with Chu Yi, then she stood up and said, "Hurry up and make peace with me. It's easier for me to leave now."
Gu Chengnan didn't know why Wang was so crazy, but she still couldn't get it when she took the initiative to ask for a divorce.
Gu Chengnan finished writing the letter of separation, and Qingyu took the two of them to the Yamen.
Gu Huayu brought Chu Yi to the house, "Chu Yi, your mother-in-law is leaving, are you sad?"
Chu Yi shook his head, "I'm not sad!"
Gu Huayu asked: "Why? She is your mother-in-law!"
“Now that Aniang is gone, there will be no one to teach the students in the first grade of junior high school.” The first grade of junior high school replied seriously.
Gu Huayu caught the information and asked, "Has your mother-in-law hit you?"
Chushi nodded, thinking that Gu Huayu didn't believe it, so he lifted up his clothes and let Gu Huayu see his thighs, "These were all beaten by my mother-in-law."
Gu Huayu saw a lot of nail marks on the inner thigh of the first year of junior high school, and stretched out her hand to touch it, "Your mother-in-law pinched it? Does it hurt?"
Chushi nodded and replied, "My mother pinched me, and it doesn't hurt anymore."
Gu Huayu scolded Mr. Wang in her heart and asked, "Do you hate your mother-in-law?"
On the first day of the month, he looked up at Gu Huayu and asked, "Sister-in-law, what is hatred?"
Gu Huayu thought for a while and said, "I just don't like it."
Chushi thought for a while and said, "I don't hate her, I'm afraid of her!"
Gu Huayu rubbed Chu's head and said, "You don't have to be afraid of her in the future, she won't live with us anymore."
“Then where will she live? Will she go back to Shangtai Village?” Gu Huayu asked as she watched on the first day of the year.
Gu Huayu shook her head, "I don't know, it should be a place she likes, with the people she likes."
“Oh, if I’m with the person I like, I won’t curse.”
Gu Huayu stood up and held Chu Yi's hand, "Maybe, let's not talk about her. Let's go, my sister-in-law will take you to eat something delicious."
Gu Huayu took Chu Yi out, took him to the main street, bought him two or two nests of silk candies, and took him to buy snacks.
After wandering around for half an hour, I took Chu Yi home.
Gu Chengnan was sitting on the corridor. When he saw Gu Huayu and Chu Yi, he stood up and asked, "Where have you been?"
On the first day of the new year, I raised the food in my hand and said happily: "My sister-in-law took me to buy delicious food."
Gu Huayu asked: "Is it done?"
Gu Chengnan nodded and said, "I gave her a hundred taels of silver. Alas, today is like a dream."
Gu Huayu smiled and said: "Congratulations, second brother, you are finally free."
Gu Chengnan said with a worried look: "I'm worried that she will come back again."
Gu Huayu said with relief: "We have already reconciled, how dare she come back? The concierge won't let her in when she comes back."
Gu Chengnan smiled bitterly and said: "If she comes over to make a noise, she will be sad if she is caught in the middle."
Gu Huayu thought of the nail marks on her legs in the first year of junior high school, and thought to herself that she had to tell Uncle Hua to keep the Wang family far away and never show up again.
“Don’t think about it, second brother, it will get better and better.”
Gu Chengnan nodded, "Thank you, Xiaoyu."
Gu Huayu saw Chu Yi sharing his food with his servants, and asked: "Second brother, do you still want to go to Zhuangzi?"
Gu Chengnan nodded, "Well, I like it there. I go to the fields to do something every day and feel comfortable. My third uncle said that he would enlighten me in the first year of junior high school."
Gu Huayu said: "Since we have agreed, you can live in Zhuangzi first. When the first grade of junior high school is a little older, let him go to school to study."
Gu Chengnan nodded and said: "Then I will take the first grade of junior high school back to Zhuangzi. I will go back and tell my third uncle and my third aunt to save them from worrying."
Gu Huayu nodded, "Okay, I'll see you off."
Gu Huayu watched Gu Chengnan's car go away, then turned and entered the yard, telling Qingyu: "Uncle Hua is back, tell me."
Gu Huayu returned to the room and leaned on the soft couch to relax.
Not long after, Liandong came in and said, "Miss, Uncle Hua is back and is waiting for Miss in the study."
Gu Huayu nodded, "I understand. Let's inform the kitchen to cook a few more dishes tonight. Let's celebrate when Wang is gone."
Landong nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll go right now."
Gu Huayu went to the study room in the outer courtyard. Hua Da, Wang Qin, and Han Shi saw Gu Huayu come in and stood up to greet him.
Gu Huayu motioned for everyone to sit down, and Wang Qin poured tea for Gu Huayu.
Gu Huayu cast her eyes on Hua Da, "Uncle Hua, this matter about the Wang family..."
Uncle Hua looked at Han Shi and said, "Tell the lady."
Han Shi smiled and leaned forward: "I didn't expect that things would go so smoothly. I originally thought that it would take three months to solve this matter, but it ended up being completed in half a month.
These days, Wang goes to the Wang family elephant shed in the south of the city every day and falls in love with a actor in the theater troupe.
After making inquiries, I learned that this actor was from Longxi. He was sold into a theater troupe at the age of five and traveled with the theater troupe for nearly twenty years.
I saw that Mr. Wang was obsessed with him, so I made a deal with this man. If he gets along well with Mr. Wang, let Mr. Wang reconcile with the second master, and I will give him one thousand taels of silver.
. If you can bring Wang back to Longxi and let him live in peace in Longxi, I will redeem his life and give him another five thousand taels of silver.
The man agreed without even thinking about it. Wang and Li Hou immediately took Wang back to Longxi.
I will ask Junshi to follow them in the dark, and send them back to Longxi, and then give him five thousand silver. "
After hearing this, Gu Huayu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I wish her to find true love. As long as she doesn't bother her second brother anymore, everything will be fine. I asked the kitchen to add more dishes to celebrate tonight."
Wang Qin asked: “Do you have any wine?”
Han Shi smiled and said, "Don't try to persuade the young lady to drink with you!"
“It’s okay, let’s just have a small drink!” Gu Huayu said.
Han Shi shook his head and said, "Miss, I can't believe what you said."
At night, Gu Huayu couldn't resist the temptation of wine and drank a few more glasses.
In the blink of an eye, May 29th came, and the Huayuge Pavilion on Taoyuan Street opened.
The auspicious time for Hua Da to find someone to look at was the first quarter of the lunar month. Gu Huayu came over at the end of the lunar month and checked the upstairs and downstairs.
"Miss, it's an auspicious time. Uncle Hua asked you to pick up the plaque." Qing Yu came over and reported.
