General, Your Wife Wants You to Get Out - C107
“Young Master Shen is here. It’s cold outside, please follow me inside.”
Shen Zhu nodded and was led into the room by a maidservant.
Inside the house, it was Jiang Si, who was holding a troubled heart. Seeing him come in, his heart tightened even more.
“How is it? After Young Master Shen verified it personally, did you come to a conclusion? ”
The man who entered shook the ice particles on his clothes. His eyes were as deep as a lake.
He pursed his lips, raised his head, and asked, “What kind of answer does Madame Jiang wish to hear? Or perhaps, what do you want to do? ”
Jiang Si knitted his eyebrows and asked, “What do you mean by that, young master?”
“In the imperial court, most of the officials had been bribed by Empress Zhao. The Jiang family is in a precarious situation, and they can’t rest peacefully while they feel threatened. I don’t need to remind my wife of this.”
Jiang Si snorted coldly and said, “That’s right, the Jiang family is indeed the camel that was killed by the dead, but how good could the Shen family be? I just want you to confirm some things. There’s no need for Young Master Shen to be so overbearing. Since you’re willing to go, doesn’t that mean that you have doubts as well? ”
Shen Zhu coldly looked at her, his tightly pursed lips had a hint of coldness. He tightly clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said: “If you want to turn over, you can, but don’t drag in innocent people. It was not easy for her to escape from death, so you must not implicate her. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Si abruptly stood up, tremblingly said, “So, you mean …” Is she really the same as she was five years ago? ”
“Yes, it’s her.” Shen Zhu sighed and painfully closed his eyes.
She shouldn’t have come back.
“It’s really her!” Not all of them were taken away by the fire, and after five years, there was actually a girl who managed to escape with her life.
Jiang Si’s legs instantly softened, and he collapsed on the wooden chair. Both of his hands were so cold that he couldn’t feel anything, yet his heart was beating endlessly.
Shen Zhu tightly shut his eyes and endured the pain. When he opened them again, he no longer hesitated, and instead became sharp and resolute.
“The empress’s faction is all over the court. If Madame wants to make a move, you’d better see the cards in your hands. I swear that I won’t let anyone hurt her after Wei’er escaped from death.”
“Do you think that if she is trapped in this prison, she will be able to get by on her own?”
When the Su Clan had sent her to the palace to be a teacher, her fate had already become entangled with the Jiang Clan.
Shen Zhu coldly looked at her, the corners of his sharp eyes overflowing with hostility.
“No matter who it is, whoever dares to touch her, I will do everything in my power to make it so that he will be eternally doomed!”
Jiang Si turned tears into smiles, held his stomach and shook his head, laughing in an extremely exaggerated way. Only after quite a while did he finally calm down and ridiculed, “Do you think with your current power, you can fight against the Queen? Just by making up a story, she can make the Shen family die a hundred times over! ”
“This is my problem. Madam, you don’t have to worry about it. You just need to remember that the ‘Wei’er’ is not a chess piece that you can discard, even if you want to use it!”
With that, he turned and pushed open the door, leaving against the incoming blizzard.
The moment the door opened, the woman inside the pavilion was assaulted by the cold wind and could not help but shiver slightly.
The maidservant at the side immediately closed the door, adding another piece of charcoal to the stove. She respectfully said, “Madam, Aunt Xu Yue has returned.”
The woman nodded tiredly. “Let her in.”
The wooden door was pushed open again, and before the woman who was covered with snow could close the oil-paper umbrella, she hurriedly entered the room and kneeled down in front of Jiang Si. Madam, this servant has thoroughly investigated everything! Su Qiuyu had come to Xuancheng not long ago to tell the world that her husband had died, and that she was dragging her two children to live at the feet of the Son of Heaven. Of those two children, one is more than five years old while the other should be three years old. ”
Jiang Si’s hands trembled while his slightly raised red phoenix eyes were filled with tears and anger, “You never went to check on that kid?” At the time of the incident in the palace, Su Qiuwei was only a fourteen-year-old child, and she had yet to be married. Five years had passed and there was already an additional child this big! Don’t you think that’s strange? ”
Xu Yue knelt on the ground and sobbed as he shook his head, “This servant doesn’t dare, afraid that I might recognize the wrong person. If the little prince is still around at this age, this servant will definitely not dare! ”
Jiang Si wiped his tears away, then his red and swollen eyes started to turn cold.
“As long as Su Qiufu is alive, that child must be my sister’s flesh and blood. Even if it isn’t, I’ll make him! “Only in this way can I have the power to topple the empress, win the battle for the Jiang family, and avenge my sister!”
It was only tomorrow, after seeing the child, that she would understand.
The Jiang family could no longer continue to be bullied. The good days of their Zhao family had come to an end.
In the early winter, the first snow fell over the whole city of Changan and Xuancheng. The scattered willow branches turned the land into a palace of silver.
It was a good omen.
Before the snow had even stopped, a group of children wrapped in buns jumped out from the street, chasing and playing.
Li Yi looked at the leaden sky and couldn’t help but sigh. Another year had passed, and in half a month, the Spring Festival would arrive.
Shuang’er held the hot water bottle with cow skin and curled up in a corner, shivering from the cold. She constantly chanted, “What’s so good about it snowing? The pests on the ground have all frozen to death. That person is also about to freeze to death.”
Li Yi shook his head and smiled to her. “Little girl, you don’t understand. This snow isn’t the coldest time, it’s always cold when the ice melts and melts.” The manor’s people relied on food to survive. There were many bugs and mice in the ground, so how could they increase their output? It would be better if it snowed. ”
“But the snow is too cold. It’s snowing ten days earlier than last year.”
The snow outside the window was piled higher and higher. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the number of people on the street was gradually decreasing.
A few children who refused to return home were found by their families and dragged by the ears. The snow-white street became even colder.
Su Zhi stood by the window with a thermos in her hands, thinking about Xiao Qian at the western suburbs’ camp.
The weather was cold, so he didn’t know if he had brought enough winter clothes. If he had known earlier, he would have taken the time to make him a big demon.
“Boss, the business hasn’t been very good these few days. Perhaps it’s because the weather is cold, and the ladies in the high school aren’t willing to go out.”
Su Zhi came back to her senses and closed the window. She nodded with melancholy. “That’s right. Especially with the snow, no one wants to go out.”
Boss, do you want us to take our things to the houses of our regular customers?” “In your own words, a home sale.
It was snowing so heavily outside that it must have been difficult for her to travel. Although Su Zhi loved money, she knew how to take advantage of it.
“No, how can we finish earning the silver?” After being busy for so long, it’s time for us to rest. ”
Qiu Hong was not surprised. She knew that Su Zhi was kind and would not make such a decision, so she just smiled and did not say anything.
There were no customers left or right, and there were helpers watching over the place.
Su Zhi dove back into the cubicle and began to work on the new product.
The weather had been dry for a long time during the winter, and long ago she had planted large patches of aloe in the backyard.
After a few days, the green aloe vera is excellent, jade-like.
Su Zhi intended to extract some of the juice and sell it using a mask. This had the effect of calming down the flames and keeping her body moist. Any finished product she made would definitely be a fire.
The business of the beauty salon on the third floor was no longer as business as before. The second floor was not much better off. Only the first floor was still bustling with business, and it was getting busier and busier.
The helpers on the second and third floors all went to the first floor while Su Zhi stayed in her cubicle to develop new products.
