Chapter 504 - 504: God Helping
The Xie family had a big business, they really did not lack Wang Qiang.
However, Madam Zhou’s ruthless actions had ruined her reputation, even though Xiao Baoxin had displayed his power at Madam Yuan’s birthday banquet and embarrassed Madam Zhou. However, rumors would always exist, and they would always spread more widely than refuting rumors. They were also more believable. Or rather, no one cared if it was true or not. They would just say it out loud.
A widow had many things to do in front of her. Staying in the Xie family was already causing trouble for them. If she dragged down the Xie family’s reputation, she would be a sinner.
Wang Qiong had made up her mind to look for Mother Xie today, but Mother Xie rejected her.
It was the same as Xiao Baoxin’s meaning. The Xie family had not fallen to the point where they could not even protect their own family.
Wang Qiang knew that if she insisted on moving out, she would only hurt the Xie family. Now was definitely not the best time. He would wait for the future…
After staying for a while more, Wang Qiang left. Xiao Baoxin was a pregnant person now, so he couldn’t be tired.
Wang Qiang had just left when Xiao Baoxin called Cai Wei in,””In the future, pay more attention to Fifteenth Aunt’s movements. If there is anyone in the residence who gossips, flatters the high and tramples on the low, feel free to come back to me.”
Cai Wei quickly agreed, and she could not wait to gossip with Xiao Baoxin about the information she had gathered,”
“Something bad has happened, Madam! I heard that Dalang of the Chu family wants to divorce the Zhou family!”
At first, Xiao Baoxin was still reprimanding Cai Wei for making a fuss over nothing, losing her composure. Who knew that after hearing this, Xiao Baoxin could not help but straighten his back, and his eyes lit up.
“Really?”
This Chu family’s big brother was a god-like helper.
Cai Wei quickly waved her hand,” Furen, don’t be anxious, listen to this servant continue…” At this point, she couldn’t help but give a spoiler, afraid that if she didn’t get the result Furen wanted, she would blame herself.
“It didn’t work!”
The corners of Xiao Baoxin’s mouth twitched, and I couldn’t stand it in my stomach as I complained,””Mother, this maid is so naughty.”
In my previous life, I was two or three years old when I had memories. At that time, the maid who served Xiao Baoxin in his early years was only Tangli. He still had an impression of her. She never married and stayed by his mother’s side.
As for the rest, one died while giving birth, one married a local general when Yang Shao was sent to Jiangzhou as an envoy and became the wife of an official, and the last one married Yang Shao’s subordinate and eventually became the wife of a fourth-rank provincial governor.
The wife of the Provincial Governor seemed to be this Cai Wei.
Xiao Baoxin had never dreamt that Cai Wei would have such a fortuitous encounter. He suddenly remembered that the maids by his side were not young anymore. It was time for them to get married.
“How old are you this year, Cai Wei?”
Cai Wei was stunned for a moment.” 15–this servant’s birthday is next month. I will be 15 years old next month.””
Xiao Baoxin nodded. It was time to find someone for them.
“Madam, listen to me…” Cai Wei felt a little reproachful. She had a stomach full of gossip and if she didn’t say it, she would explode. Why did she even ask her about her age?
“This Aunt Yuan of the Xie family is not a simple person. She looks like a soft-faced dumpling, but she’s really ruthless. I also heard from a maid in the Chu manor that Lady Yuan is now in charge of the Chu family’s gifts.”
As expected by Madam Chu, Madam Zhou had Xiao Baoxin thrown out of the Xie residence. She had lost all her face and found her own coachman to return to the Chu family in a sorry state. She immediately ran to Madam Wang and cried. Madam Wang was already sick and weak, which made Madam Zhou’s face turn even paler.
It wasn’t that they believed the Zhou Consortium, but the Xie Clan had gone too far. This slap in the face was really ruthless.
Chu Dalang was originally being served by Third Master Xie in Rong ‘an Hall, and they were still maintaining their etiquette and politeness. When he heard the words from his servant in front, his face immediately turned ugly, and he flicked his sleeves and left.
He did not tell his Tai Changqing. He was angry, but he was afraid that the elders would make a big fuss.
However, Tai Changqing and Xie Xian had a grudge against each other. He always felt that the eldest son of the Chu family had been removed from his official position. Even if he was reprimanded, he could not believe that Xie Xian had done something.
Now that her daughter-in-law had been thrown out of the Xie residence, this was a blatant slap to the Chu family’s face!
Regardless of the reason, he had never seen anyone who was so shameless!
Taichang Qing gave Xie Xian a few cold words and left.
This was something that the back of the house did not know. There was also a storm in front, catching everyone off guard. She didn’t know why the Chu family was so cold.
When he turned around, he saw that the Chu family’s second branch was still there. It was as if nothing had happened. This was intriguing.
Fortunately, Xie Xian’s status was now very high, so he could still hold his own. The number of guests that came to the Xie family’s residence was no less than a year ago. Now, the roads at the entrance of Black Clothes Alley were already blocked, and it was as crowded as a market.
When Chu Yuanshi returned to the Chu family, the eldest son of the Chu family had just returned to the residence. He was holding back his anger, but Chu Yuanshi caught him and scolded him.
What a bloody mess.
Chu Yuanshi didn’t want to drag Zhou shi along for nothing. She couldn’t say anything good to that kind of person. She had her own set of logic.
Wasn’t it because of the Chu family’s Dalang? She pulled the Chu family’s Dalang and scolded him.
It was said that the Xie family had chased Madam Zhou out, badmouthed her in front of her, and smeared Xie Xian. Was the Chu family there to celebrate her birthday or to make enemies?
Who should I hate?
Chu Yuanshi started to cry after scolding him. She had even broken up with the sisters. What was Zhou shi thinking?
Finally, he cleverly mentioned Wang Qiang. The rumors that Madam Zhou created were not only Xie Xian, but also Chu Dalang. In the end, he knew very well who was seducing who, but the one who caused a ruckus was the Zhou Consortium.
Just like that, Chu Dalang even had the intention to kill the Zhou Consortium.
It was not just because he had offended the Xie family. He still had to work in an official position. After this period of limelight, he had to use his connections before going back. He could not be like the Third Master of the Chu family, who was just an idle official position. He still wanted to bring honor to his ancestors.
He was the eldest, and he had to inherit the title!
If he let the Zhou Consortium go on a rampage, what face would he have in the aristocratic families?
He wasn’t laughing at him for being dissolute, but at him for not being able to control his wife. Before anyone else could set him up, his wife had set him up first! His reputation was ruined. This kind of gossip, how could it be spread by others?
Rushing to the backyard, they almost strangled Madam Zhou to death. In front of Madam Wang, the couple beat each other until their heads bled.
Madam Wang spat out blood in anger, Chu Dalang’s face was bruised, and Madam Zhou’s face was swollen…If Tai Changqing had not returned in time, the chief branch would have been wiped out.
Chu Dalang was so exasperated that he wanted to divorce Madam Zhou. Her maiden family had no one to rely on, but she was still so capable. Who else could she divorce if not her?!
Concubine Zhou naturally did not want to do that. She cried to the heavens and snatched the earth. If it were not for the nanny who accompanied Concubine Zhou behind her master’s back to find a few young men to boost Concubine Zhou’s reputation, the few of them would have cried in a ball. Concubine Zhou would have already been pulled out of the door by Chu Dalang to go to the government to sign the divorce papers..
