Chapter 897: Exploiting You for Money Through Tricks

perial examinations, one person ascending to power would lift everyone connected to them. The threshold of the Zong family would immediately become different from that of ordinary people.She is the wi...After the examination, the once vibrant complexion of her face visibly paled.

She looked at Zhao Wu very seriously, "Yun Ni, I want to take you away. You can't stay in the Du family anymore."

Zhao Yunni had indeed just suffered a miscarriage. In this era of underdeveloped medical science, a miscarriage for a woman was akin to losing half her life. If not carefully cared for, especially someone like Zhao Wu who already had underlying health issues and wasn't particularly well-built...

There could be other unimaginable diseases that may occur, and by the time your body develops irreversible illnesses, it will be too late to treat them.

"Logically speaking, a woman after childbirth should only have depleted qi and blood. Why do you still have so many internal injuries"

Zhao Yunni lowered her head. Her current appearance was indeed embarrassing to behold.

"Jinxiu, to be able to see you again in my lifetime, I am truly overjoyed."

"You haven't drawn a line between us because of what happened with Ajiu, and you still come to see me. I...I'm already very content."

"Now that I'm married, you should let me handle my own affairs. You, the Du family, can't stay here for long, it's best if you leave as soon as possible."

"Don't ever let my mother-in-law see you, or else you're done for."

Zha Wu recalled the virtues of his mother-in-law, Liu Shi, and hurriedly withdrew his hand, pushing Fang Jinshu out.

The more she acted this way, the less Fang Jinshu could bear to leave her, not to mention that she had never intended to leave on her own since arriving here.

"I won't leave, if I have to go, I'll take you with me."

As for what kind of mother-in-law, Fang Jinshu didn't take it to heart at all. It was Zhao Wu's husband that she coldly inquired about.

"How did you miscarry What about your husband Did he just leave you here all alone like this"

Zhao Wu's room was very messy. The clothes she wore still had blood stains on them, most likely from when she miscarried. She had been wearing them the whole time and no one had helped her change.

A bowl of nearly dry congee sat on the bedside table, rice grains clinging to the sides. Flies buzzed around it from time to time.

Fang Jinshu looked around the room, her brows furrowing deeper with each glance.

When it came to her husband, Zhao Wu suddenly couldn't hold back anymore. She bit her lower lip tightly, trying hard not to let a sob escape.

"After childbirth, the doctor told me that I had damaged my womb and could never have children again. He then changed completely overnight, beating and scolding me before storming out."

“Haven't been back yet.”

Xiao Yueqi angrily retorted, "What kind of person is this How could Zhao Gongzi have found such a husband for you."

"Him, him, why did he agree to let you marry into the Du family"

Zhao Wu shook his head, explaining to his younger brother, "This has nothing to do with Xiao Jiu. It's my fault for being blind back then. I was determined to repay the favor of saving my life and insisted on marrying Du Yuan."

"Xiao Jiu once said that he was a bad person, but at the time I not only didn't believe Xiao Jiu, but also scolded him."

Fang Jinxiu paused for a moment, then asked her the question that had been weighing on her mind since she entered.

"How did you come to the capital Zhao family, are there only the two of you left"

If something drastic hadn't happened to the Zhao family, how could Zhao Xingzhou allow his own sister to live such a life, forcing her to sell herself to a pawnshop

She really couldn't figure it out. With Zhao Xingzhou's abilities, he wouldn't let himself fall to this point. What kind of accident had happened

After Zhao Wu said a few words, he began to cough intermittently, and the cough grew worse and worse.

Fang Jinshi took out an anti-cough pill and fed it to Zhao Wu. Then, she took out a few antihistamine pills from her space.

Over the past few years, in order to make it easier for those around her to take medicine, she found that simmering medicine was too time-consuming, and the children didn't like drinking bitter decoctions. So she wrote down quite a few prescriptions for common medicines for Little Green.

Little Green would spend her time in the space refining medicine and making pills when she wasn't busy.

These medicines are all infused with spring essence, their effects far surpass those sold at ordinary apothecaries.

After swallowing the pill, Zhao Wu felt much better soon after. His throat no longer felt so painful and he spoke again.

"This is a long story, you guys should really leave. My mother-in-law can be quite unreasonable. If she knew you came to see me without her permission, she would definitely make a big fuss and make things difficult for you."

Xiao Yue frowned and said, "It shouldn't be. The madam came with a large basket of fruit, and the woman who just opened the door for us seemed very happy to see it."

"It was her who let us in, and you've already given gifts to your mother-in-law. How can you kick us out now"

Zhao Wu was startled at once, "What, you also sent gifts"

She became even more nervous and hurriedly stood up to push them out.

"No, you guys get out of here, or she'll really know how to stir up trouble, coming up with new ways to extort money from you."e reputation of Zong Yu's home led to misfortune for this patch of bamboo forest behind his residence.This means even the bamboo above ground would be clear, but no one would notice the bamboo shoots...
