Chapter 534: Find a Reason to Sink Her into the River
"It's no problem to give you five hundred taels of silver. I can also ask the Tang family to hand over the people who bullied you. Although Zhou is missing now, it shouldn't be difficult to find her. But the eldest lady of the Tang family, Sun..."
"I want the eldest young master of the Tang family to divorce her." Wu Ya said gritting her teeth.
Jiang Youzhen shook her head, "That's impossible! Whether she was intentionally conniving or she was negligent as the mistress of the house, it's not enough for Tang Cheng to divorce her.
She didn't directly order anyone to attack you. Even if this matter is exposed, as long as the Tang family is willing to use some means, at most it will only lose some reputation! But for you, the Tang family will not let you go in the future."
Jiang Youzhen has to go back to the capital, so it is impossible for her to protect Wu Ya all the time, and she doesn't have that much energy.
Wu Ya thought about it, and although she was unwilling, she still nodded.
"to make!"
Wu Ya walked aside and sat down. Jiang Youzhen walked around the door and came back to sit down. Seeing this, the maid at the door immediately walked away to report.
Wu Ya, who was sitting opposite Jiang Youzhen, finally felt relieved. Although she was still worried, she felt that Jiang Youzhen would definitely keep his promise.
Jiang Youzhen didn't care when he noticed that Wu Ya, who was sitting opposite him, was observing him.
At this moment, she was thinking about the family letter. Mr. Tang had contact with the outside world, so what about the eldest son of the Tang family? Is the Tang family still colluding with foreign vassals? She would have to find someone to investigate this after she returned.
Wu Ya was hiding behind a screen at the time. Judging from her nervousness, even if she tried hard to hold her breath and concentrate, for a martial artist, such a strong aura could be detected.
In other words, the people who came to get the token and letter did not practice martial arts, or their martial arts skills were not very good, or even had no internal strength.
How could they send such a person to take such an important thing? Could that person be someone from the mansion? But what about Wu Ya's accent?
I looked up and was about to ask Wu Ya, but Wu Ya spoke first.
"You are really different from before. I couldn't recognize you when I came in just now." Wu Ya's pupils were deep. She couldn't associate the noble and handsome young man in front of her with the dark and thin farm boy.
How could a person change so completely? But then she thought about herself. Wasn't she also changed beyond recognition?
Those people were also afraid that Jiang Youzhen would be dissatisfied, so they changed themselves into new clothes and new shoes before coming.
It had been almost two years, and today was the first time she had looked in the mirror. When she first saw the person in the mirror, she was so frightened by her own ugliness and embarrassment that she dared not look at him again. That was why she hated those people even more.
Jiang Youzhen thought she was talking about her appearance. After the systematic transformation, she now only resembled the original owner by 30%. Only a little of her original foundation could be seen, but she was 60% similar to herself in her previous life.
Tang Cheng heard the servants report in the inner courtyard that Jiang Youzhen had already reached an agreement, so he planned to go over.
"Bring the people who served her to me. Even though Mr. Jiang has been adopted, he is still a member of the Jiang family. Seeing my cousin become like this, I have to give her an explanation."
Sun was a little unhappy. "I think she just wants to extort money. If she really wants to help Jiang, why didn't she come earlier? There is no way she would sell her to the Tang family as a second wife."
"No matter what happened before, now that she has come to our door, we have to give her some face. If she really doesn't want to pursue the matter, why don't we just let it go?"
Tang Cheng complained a little when he said this, "Jiang is just a woman, just give her some food and drink, look at how you support her? Fortunately, no one has asked about it in the past two years. Otherwise, if outsiders see that our Tang family treats my father's widow so harshly, how bad will it be for our reputation?"
Sun immediately glared at him, "Why? Are you heartbroken? Did that little slut steal your soul? Don't you see that she is just an ugly whore now? How can you be interested in someone like her?"
Tang Cheng was speechless. "Why are you making such a fuss? How could I possibly do such a treasonous thing?"
"What mother? She was just sold to our family by her parents. We have her indenture in our hands. Even if they beat her to death, the government can't do that to us. They just gave her an official identity, and you really treat her as your mother." Sun sneered.
Tang Cheng suddenly felt something was wrong. "What did you mean by slut?"
My father was already seriously ill on the night of his wedding, and it was impossible for him to consummate the marriage. How could Jiang be a slut? She should still be a virgin.
Sun sneered, "That little slut can't bear the loneliness, so she has an affair with those servants. She is worse than a whore in a brothel.
That is to say, I did not make it public for the sake of the Tang family's reputation. After Mr. Jiang leaves, we will find a reason to drown her in the river. Otherwise, keeping such a person in the mansion will sooner or later be a disaster."
There was murderous intent in Sun's eyes, but it was not that she was cruel. She didn't know whether Jiang had discovered her private affairs that day, and she didn't dare to gamble.
Her husband ordered that Jiang must not die, otherwise it would be detrimental to the Tang family's reputation, otherwise she would have killed Jiang long ago.
"Pa!" Tang Cheng slapped her in anger, "You! You stupid woman, you are in trouble."
In the side hall, Jiang Youzhen and the others waited for a quarter of an hour before Tang Cheng finally arrived.
As soon as he arrived, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! There are too many trivial matters at home, and I have been delayed for a long time. I hope Mr. Jiang will forgive me."
"It's just a bad luck that I came down here." Jiang Youzhen smiled and said.
But no matter how Tang Cheng looked at it, he felt that Jiang Youzhen's smile was ironic.
He knew that today's matter would not end well. It all depended on Jiang Youzhen's intention, whether he wanted money or people.
The carpenter from Qinghe Village was probably also related to Jiang Youzhen. Everything was connected. Jiang Youzhen was probably using this incident to make him release the carpenter. Anyway, he didn't believe that Jiang Youzhen was here to save the Jiang family.
If it was just that she didn't take good care of him, then it would be fine. But now that Jiang had an affair with a servant, even if Jiang Youzhen would lose face if she told her, she could still make a big fuss about it.
The Tang family has done well in business in the past two years and is heading to the capital. The road has been paved, and it is not impossible to become an imperial merchant in a few years, so reputation is particularly important.
He glanced at Jiang, who was shrinking her neck, and wondered how much Jiang had said to Jiang Youzhen. As for what Sun said about the affair, he actually didn't believe it. Without Sun's tacit consent, Jiang and the servants didn't have the courage to do it.
"Alas! To be honest, I am at fault for this. I am busy with business all day and inevitably neglected it. From today on, I will tidy up the whole house. The servants around my mother will be replaced. I will send my wet nurse to take care of her in person. I wonder if Mr. Jiang is satisfied?"
As he spoke, he clapped his hands three times toward the door, and soon a waiter came in carrying a tray.
