After being reborn as a widow, the mistress of the Hou family remarried a powerful official

Chapter 100 Coward Man
"What script?"

"This morning, I went to the teahouse with my mother-in-law, and there was a book of new stories from the storyteller."

Seeing everyone's curious expressions, the man explained.

The storybook says: There was a young man from an aristocratic family who married a beautiful girl, but he was unlucky and went on an expedition on the night of the wedding. Everyone thought he was dead. His new wife was a widower because of him and was bullied by her husband's family.

Unexpectedly, a few years later, this man came back with an extramarital affair and gave birth to a son. As soon as he returned home, he was about to throw his wife out of the house.

Everyone booed again. Isn't this a coward, or what?
Someone in the crowd said again: "I see this man from Mr. Hou's family, how tight-eyed he is?"

After hearing this, others also wondered, "I remember that in the Pingyang Hou family, there is only one second son left. The eldest and youngest are all dead. So who is this man?"

Another person said: "I heard that he calls himself the Young Madam's husband, so he should be the Third Master."

"Impossible, the third master has died long ago, how could it be him!"

The crowd of onlookers was chattering like this, and the old lady was so frightened that she immediately fell silent. Just when she was about to sneak away, Jing Zhaoyi came with an official to arrest him.

"Bold criminal! Don't hurry up and arrest me when you see me."

As soon as Gu Zhennan saw this fight, he couldn't think of grabbing the shop, so he hurriedly ran away.

"Oh!" Someone suddenly realized, "Is he the coward who died and came back?"

Many people remember the Jingnan riots three years ago. Some who remember it clearly said, "So, the third master of the Hou family is still a fugitive?"

After all, the current Holy Emperor's decree only spares the life of the second master of the Hou Mansion.

At worst, he was a fugitive; at worst, it was a crime of deceiving the emperor.

The officer took him back after a few trips back and forth. Gu Zhennan was so frightened that he wet his pants and cried, "Mom, save me!"

The old lady was also dumbfounded, and quickly ran to Jing Zhaoyi to accompany her with a smile, "Sir, it's all a misunderstanding."

Unexpectedly, Jing Zhaoyi snorted coldly, "Misunderstanding? Someone, please arrest the old lady as well."

"Yes!"

The second master, who was originally happy to see his brother arrested, also panicked, "You can just take my brother, but why do you want to arrest my mother?"

The officer said: "Your mother injured someone and destroyed the property of Deji Hall. There are witnesses and physical evidence, so of course she will be arrested."

The second master was furious, "She is the daughter-in-law of our family. Naturally, Deji Hall also belongs to our Marquis' Mansion. She beats her own things, so why should she be arrested?"

"Second Master, what you said is wrong."

Ke Yiqing said quietly: "Your brother has an extramarital affair and a son. He no longer wants to recognize my wretched wife. A few days ago, he wrote the letter of separation with his own hands."

The second lady's face was full of disbelief, "Third Master, that's not what you said at that time!"

Gu Zhennan was still struggling to resist, but when he heard this, he knew that he was finished. He just slumped there, like a piece of rotten meat, or the fishy rotten meat that stained his crotch.

Ke Yiqing, who was listening, narrowed his eyes dangerously. Hearing the meaning of these words, Gu Zhennan brought people over to ask for Deji Hall, and the second lady's push behind him was indispensable.

It's okay. She will settle this account slowly.

When the old lady and Gu Zhennan were taken away, only the second master and the second lady were left running around with their heads in their hands. They fled home in embarrassment, thinking that the matter was over.

Who knew this was just the beginning of a nightmare.

Countless scholar-bureaucrats and scholars jointly signed a letter, condemning the old lady for destroying Mr. Huo's original works.

As soon as the news came out, the second master squatted at home and burst into tears. He kept chanting: "It's over. This time we are really over."

The second lady looked indifferent, "We are just poor scholars, what are we afraid of? We are one of the aristocratic families, and my father will protect us if something happens."

"What do you know?!" He opened his eyes wide and kicked him up. "Ignorant bitch, I am criticized and despised by scholars. How can I be an official in the future?"

She cried and promised again and again that her parents would not ignore them, and she just begged him not to hit her again.

The second master thought about it for a moment and felt that this was also the case, so he wanted to help her up.

But suddenly he doubted: "Are the recent rumors outside true or false?"

"What gossip?"

"Some people say that you had an affair with Yan Ming!"

"This, how is this possible..." The second lady denied it, but her pale face still revealed her inner panic.

After all, they have been married for decades. How could the second master not know what happened when he saw this scene?
He was so angry that he directly picked up the vase beside him and smashed it on the head of the confused second lady.

The alley where Ke Yiqing lives is not far from the aristocratic family and is quiet and livable. There is a moat running through the middle. It was originally called Tongxin Alley, which means the vein of the ancient capital. The previous emperor changed its name to Yudai Alley and it has been used ever since.

"Why is it called Jade Belt Lane?"

Aunt Li said with a smile: "The former emperor was extravagant. He dreamed of the goddess when he was out for fun. In the dream, he chased her all the way. Finally, the goddess disappeared in Jade Belt Lane, leaving only a jade belt for him to see things and miss her."

"There is actually such a story."

The two were talking and laughing when Zi Xing suddenly came over to talk to her.

"Is the person dying?"

She sneered coldly in her heart, it seemed that Pingyanghou's family was specialized in naughty men, and her daughter-in-law was taken advantage of. She did not dare to make trouble with the instigator, but instead beat her.

It seems that she has learned a lot.

The little girl nodded and said that because she had no money, she did not dare to tell Xuan Pinghou's family. At this time, she was dragged to the pharmacy in Deji Hall to wait for Dr. Xie's free consultation.

Aunt Xue said angrily: "Second Master Gu has done all his tricks. He cheated you and didn't tell you. He still has the nerve to send people to your home for treatment. Damn!"

"I'll go see her."

After all, she had been a sister-in-law for two lives. If this person died, she wouldn't be allowed to go and pay her condolences or something?

As soon as Xie Li saw her coming, he immediately pulled the man in and said, "Here, do you want to save the one outside?"

"Patients are coming to our door. If you don't treat me because of me, wouldn't you have broken your rules?"

"That's true. Since you have no objection, then I, a little doctor, will do what I should do."

She put down her words and left in a hurry.

After all, there are countless people waiting for her to treat them every day.

Now that Ke Yiqing's identity was exposed, it became even more legitimate when she visited the accounting room, the warehouse, etc. Xie Li told her last time that the warehouse was short of medicines. When she went in and took a look, it was indeed the case.

"We have stored a lot of it, why are we wasting it so much?"

The boy complained: "Don't you remember, boss? On the opening day, you promised that within the first three months, the first hundred patients who are consulted every day will receive free consultation fees and medicines."

This was true, but she still had doubts in her heart. She had carefully calculated before giving this promise. With their inventory, this was completely enough.

"In addition, there have been a few big customers recently, and they bought a lot at once."

"Big patron?"

The boy had an ambiguous look on his face, "That man is Xie Shengshou's ex-girlfriend. He comes here all day long, probably because he wants to please him!"
