Wang Shi had already been beaten, and people kept talking about her on the way back. At this moment, when she heard her husband's words, Wang Shi only felt dizzy. In the end, she fainted from anger.
Although Wang Gui was angry at Wang Shi for making him lose face, he did not dare to leave Wang Shi here. It was not that Wang Gui had deep feelings for Wang Shi, but because Wang Shi's younger brother's family was rich, he could only rely on Wang Shi if he wanted to get money from Wang Shi's younger brother.
Wang Gui was afraid that if something happened to Wang Shi, Wang Shi's younger brother's family would not give him money anymore. So, he hurriedly helped Wang Shi to the bed and helped her find a doctor.
However, Wang Shi was cold and hungry in the cell last night. Today, she was beaten and listened to people gossip for so long. She couldn't take it anymore. That night, she became feverish and started talking nonsense. It was so torturous that it could kill someone.
If it were any other time, Wang Gui would definitely turn against Wang Shi for torturing people like this. However, he still wanted Wang Shi's younger brother's money to buy exam questions for his son. He could only endure the impatience in his heart and continue to take care of Wang Shi.
Wang Shi made a fuss for the whole night. When she woke up the next morning, she drank the medicine. Although her fever was gone, she became listless. No matter how Zhu Changsheng told Wang Shi about Jiujiu, Wang Shi would not target Jiujiu anymore.
It was not that Wang Shi was soft-hearted, but she felt that Jiujiu was simply her nemesis. She had schemed against many people in her life, but Jiujiu was definitely the most difficult one to scheme against. Moreover, Jiujiu was the one who made her suffer the most. When she thought about how she was imprisoned twice in her life because of Jiujiu, Wang Shi did not dare to scheme against Jiujiu again even if she was given dozens of guts.
Although Wang Gui wanted to scheme against Jiujiu, Wang Shi did not agree to it. In the end, Wang Gui could only give up.
Wang Gui and Wang Shi did not scheme against Jiujiu anymore. Jiujiu's days were much more peaceful. She did not go to the restaurant anymore. She focused on making clothes for Li Shuan and Lianshi. Occasionally, she would make some delicious food for Jiujiu to bring back to Auntie Wang. Her days were very comfortable.
At this moment, Jiujiu heard that someone had come to seek refuge with Wang Shi.
This time, the person who came to seek refuge with the Wang family was also a young lady. However, unlike Jiujiu's family who came to seek refuge with the Wang family, this time, there was only one young lady who came to seek refuge with the Wang family. It was said that her family had died of an illness along the way, leaving only this young lady.
Jiujiu had never seen the girl before. But from the gossip in the restaurant, she could tell that the girl was very good-looking. At least, she was middle-aged.
When Jiujiu heard that the person who came to seek refuge with Wang Shi was a girl, she had a bad feeling. But before she could say what the bad feeling was, she heard that the girl who came to seek refuge with Wang Shi was engaged to Zhu Changsheng. They would be married in half a month.
If Wang Yue was known to everyone because of her achievements, then Zhu Changsheng must be known to everyone because he was too depraved.
Zhu Changsheng might have been a little promising when he was young. But as he grew older, he began to hang around in brothels. Until now, he had a bad reputation. Otherwise, he would not have fallen to the point where he could not find a wife even though his family was so rich.
From this, it could be seen that Zhu Changsheng's reputation was even greater than Wang Yue's.
When Jiujiu heard Wang Shi say that the girl was married to Zhu Changsheng, Jiujiu naturally wanted to stop it. But she was in no position to stand out, so she had Steamed Bun help her investigate. But when the results came out, Jiujiu's eyes instantly widened.
Sure enough, there was always a mountain higher than the one before.
The girl's name was Cui Yuan. Her family had all died, but they did not die of illness. They encountered bandits on the road and were killed by them. Then, she was captured by them and brought to the mountain stronghold.
In order to survive, Cui Yuan directly gave herself to the bandits. At first, she was very unwilling, but after a while, she developed feelings for the bandit leader.
When she saw this, the corner of Jiujiu's mouth couldn't help but twitch. The disgust in her eyes almost overflowed.
Don't mention who dared to kill her family, even if they dared to touch her parents, she would fight with her life on the line. But she actually liked him. There were too many things to complain about. Jiujiu didn't know where to start.
Cui Yuan and the bandit leader stayed together for half a year. Then, Cui Yuan had the bandit leader's child.
As the saying goes, a woman is a hero's grave. The bandit leader and Cui Yuan were lovey-dovey with each other, so naturally, he lost his fighting spirit. The stronghold originally relied on killing and robbing to survive. As the leader, he didn't have a seat, and there were many people below who wanted to pull him down from his position. So, that night, the bandit leader was naturally killed.
The Second Master who killed the bandit leader kept Cui Yuan because she was pretty. Of course, he also had the thought that it would be a waste not to play with her.
Cui Yuan's man was dead, and she was humiliated by the second leader. She wanted to die now, but because she thought of her man's child in her stomach, she endured it.
After enduring the humiliation for a few days, Cui Yuan finally took advantage of the second leader to go down the mountain to rob and directly escaped.
It was already seven days later when Cui Yuan came here.
Cui Yuan originally wanted to seek refuge with Wang Shi to give birth to her child, but she didn't expect that Wang Shi would want her to marry.
After hearing that the person Wang Shi wanted her to marry was Zhu Changsheng, Cui Yuan agreed.
After all, she was a weak woman. Even if she could raise the child, she couldn't give the child anything good. If she married Zhu Changsheng, it would be different. Zhu Changsheng's family was rich. She only needed to raise the child there. Even if they found out, she could take the money and leave.
So, Cui Yuan and Wang Shi set the marriage contract between Cui Yuan and Zhu Changsheng with their own ulterior motives.
Originally, Jiujiu was thinking about whether or not to remind Cui Yuan, but after seeing Cui Yuan's experience, Jiujiu decisively chose to ignore it.
A woman who could escape from a bandit's nest was not easy to deal with. She just wanted to watch her and Zhu Changsheng torture each other.
After knowing that Cui Yuan wasn't a good girl, Jiujiu directly pretended that she didn't know about this matter. Then, she continued to focus on preparing for the marriage.
Soon, it was the end of the year. Soon, it was the day of Jiujiu's marriage.
Early in the morning, Jiujiu was pulled up in front of the dressing mirror. Finally, after a heavy phoenix crown was placed on her head, she sat in front of the bed.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiujiu heard a familiar sound of footsteps. Then, she heard Wang Yue's low and hoarse voice: "I'm here."
