Chapter 135 Ugly



Chapter 135 Ugly

Nan Hongqiu now saw Song Zhan's ruthless look and sneered, "Song Zhan, I have been married to you for so many years and I thought I had chosen the wrong person. I didn't expect you to be so cowardly that even when someone in your own house was framed, you didn't even think about seeking justice for me and just wanted to divorce me. I'm afraid you already have a lover outside and are just waiting to bring me in after I leave."

"Nan Hongqiu, I have been so kind to you over the years. Who would have thought that you are such a jealous woman and so calculating? Not only did you drag my daughters into this, but now you want to take my entire second house with you to death." Song Zhan was now annoyed. He immediately took out the divorce letter from his sleeve and threw it on the ground, saying coldly, "Get lost, go back to your Nan family now."

Nan Hongqiu was now at a loss, so she had to stand up and pick up the divorce letter from the ground. She looked at everyone and said sadly, "You Song family members are all so cruel and arrogant. I will make you pay the price someday."

"Aunt, why don't you take care of yourself first?" Song Wanning stood aside and spoke up. "Now that my reputation has been damaged even though I am only the daughter of the eldest wife in the general's mansion, you can imagine what kind of life your biological daughters, Sister Xiu and Sister Shi, are leading in their husband's family."

Nan Hongqiu was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she had two daughters. Now that her reputation was so bad, her two daughters also had a hard time living.

I had intended to kill one thousand enemies but lose eight hundred of my own, but I didn't expect to end up like this.

Nan Hongqiu was angry, but still looked up at Song Wanning and said, "My two daughters will naturally not despise me. Just wait for me to turn over a new leaf, and then you can have a good life."

Nan Hongqiu said this and left the general's mansion.

After Nan Hongqiu left, Song Zhan was the only one left from the second house.

Song Zhan has taken in many concubines over the years, but for some reason these concubines could never get pregnant. Now Song Zhan's second wife doesn't even have a son.

Song Jing looked at Song Zhan and the old lady above him, and said firmly, "Grandfather, second brother, this family must be divided now. I will call the elders to divide the property in the next few days. Now, the eldest house must start looking for a new house. We will move there as soon as the family is divided."

The old lady was now irritated by Song Jing's attitude. She picked up the teacup beside her and threw it to the ground, spilling the tea all over the floor. "Get out! If you want to divide the family, then get out! You unfilial son! Just wait for people in the capital to say that you gave up respecting your elderly mother after you gained power."

"My son has withdrawn."

Song Jing took Song Lan and Song Wan Ning and left the Qianqian Hall. Now the Second House was deserted and the mistress of the house was divorced. Someone had to support this big house.

The old lady now felt a headache when she looked at her own son. She said in a low voice, "Zhan'er, we are an orphan and a widow now. The most important thing is to find you a stepmother and give birth to children as soon as possible."

Song Zhan responded, "Mother is right. Now I will choose a daughter of an official family in the capital who is both virtuous and beautiful to marry and continue my family line."

The old lady just nodded after hearing this, and then said to Song Zhan, "Now the conscienceless eldest branch wants to divide the family. If that's the case, you should be prepared and wait for the elders to come and let them know how heartless Song Jing is. If so, we can get more property."

Song Zhan also nodded repeatedly. If they didn't use any tricks now, their second branch would probably not get much of the property in the general's mansion.

Song Zhan was a civil servant with limited salary. Nan Hongqiu was not good at running a shop before. The general's mansion had always relied on the family assets left over from the past and the rewards Song Jing earned from his military merits. If the family was divided now, there would be no money to be shared, and the future life would be greatly reduced.

In the past, Nan Hongqiu plotted against Song Wanning and married her to the Zhongping Marquis's residence. Song Wanning's dowry was well managed by Song Jing, so Nan Hongqiu couldn't get involved. However, Nan Hongqiu embezzled all of Song Wanning's betrothal gifts.

Although Song Zhan and the old lady had enjoyed a good life in the past, now that Nan Hongqiu's plan had gone awry, they were afraid that Song Jing would bear a grudge, so they wanted to shut Nan Hongqiu up and draw a clear line with her.

Nan Hongqiu wanted to see her two daughters since she left the general's mansion. Mother Xu had been with her for many years. Seeing Nan Hongqiu's depressed look, she couldn't help but comfort her, "Madam, although you have left the general's mansion, your two daughters have always been very filial and will definitely be on the same page with you."

Nan Hongqiu sighed repeatedly and shook her head, "That's true, but my reputation is so bad now. Those friends I knew in the boudoir before are now avoiding me like snakes and scorpions. I'm afraid my two daughters will also be implicated by me. Xiu Jie'er used to have a good life in the Wang family. If she is disgraced by her husband's family because of me, I will be sorry for her."

Mother Xu, standing by, echoed in a low voice, "Madam has always been good to both girls. Now it's just that something went wrong. If Sister Xiu can help Madam clear her name and bring down Song Wanning, everything will be fine."

When Nan Hongqiu heard what Mother Xu said, she clenched her fists and said coldly, "That little girl actually has such means. If no one helped her, I would definitely not believe it. She made me unlucky again and again, and harmed my sister Shi to this point. Sooner or later, she will pay the price."

Mother Xu nodded repeatedly as she watched the carriage arrive at Wang's house.

Mother Xu got out of the carriage and said to the gatekeeper of the Wang family, "Go and inform your Second Madam quickly. Tell her that her father and mother are here. Tell her to come out and meet them."

The servant saw that Madam Xu was well dressed and the carriage was bright, so he responded and went in to call for help.

Nan Hongqiu was just thinking about having a good cry with Song Wanxiu, but who would have thought that what she was waiting for was other news. The servant stood at the door and said to Madam Xu, "Mom, it's really a bad time. Our grandma is out now and is not in the house at this time."

Seeing this, Mother Xu was unwilling to give up, so she just asked again, "In that case, when will your Second Grandma come back?"

The servant smiled repeatedly, "I really don't know."

Nan Hongqiu saw this and had no other choice, so she called Madam Xu and planned to leave. Who would have thought that at this time, the little maid who was doing shopping was about to enter the mansion from outside.

The maid was Song Wanxiu's personal maid. Madam Xu recognized her immediately and said, "Shanzha, our mistress is here, why don't you come over and answer her."
