Chapter 293: 1 divorce letter
Xie Qingzhi was delighted when he saw the carriage stop. He didn't care about the strange looks and comments from the people around him. He just wanted to seize this opportunity.
Zhuxue lifted the car curtain and stared at him unhappily. This Mr. Li was so annoying. He didn't care about his reputation, but his young master did.
Jiang Huai sat in the carriage without sticking his head out, and a cold and low voice came from the carriage.
"Mr. Li, what do you mean? You and I, an unmarried man, are asking you to help with the conflict between you and your wife? Are you kidding me?"
He suddenly became anxious, "No, I really have no choice, I...I..."
He really couldn't say that he had been divorced by Li Qionglan. After the death of his personal servant Wen Qi, he thought the matter was settled.
Although Li Qionglan began to distance herself from him, at least he was still her husband. But when the pregnant maid who had died came back to life with a five-month-old baby in her arms, he knew it was all over.
When what he had done was exposed, neither Mother Li's disgust nor Father Li's shock was enough to break his heart.
But when he saw Li Qionglan's cold eyes, as if she was looking at an insignificant person, his heart was broken.
After all, it was a family scandal, so he was not sent to the government. Instead, he was sent back to Nanshan with a divorce letter, and was forbidden to set foot in Qingzhou again.
On the way back, he met a bandit who wanted to humiliate him. Just as he was about to bite his tongue to preserve his innocence, his veil was pulled off by the man, and he was slapped hard in the face before he could even see the man clearly.
He was stunned for a moment, but the following words made him fall into the abyss.
"Bah, I thought she was a beauty, but she turned out to be so ugly. It's such a bummer!"
Then he took out the dagger hanging from his waist, put the handle to his face, and stared at him with interest.
"You're so ugly, but you don't mind being uglier, right?"
The cold touch on his skin made his heart tremble. He wanted to beg for mercy, but his throat seemed to be blocked and no sound came out after he opened his mouth several times.
Appearance has always been a sore spot for him, and now being stepped on so hard by someone made him unable to breathe.
When the blade pierced his skin and he felt the stinging pain, he knew that his life was over. He fainted from the pain and when he woke up he had returned to the Xie family.
His family was disappointed and angry with him, so they concealed the matter in order to preserve the reputation of the Xie family.
For some reason, his scar has been festering for more than two months and he feels sick just looking at it.
He clearly just wanted to be with her, why did God treat him like this.
Jiang Huai looked at him for a long time but couldn't tell the reason. "Mr. Li, no matter what happened to your wife and husband, I won't help. If you keep pestering me, I will report it to the police."
Perhaps he was scared by the thought of reporting to the police, and he suddenly withdrew his hand. Lan Jiu took the opportunity to raise the whip and drove the carriage away slowly.
He was left alone in the middle of the street, standing quietly with his head down. The servant approached him cautiously and asked.
"Is my husband still going to the post station?"
"Ah ha ha ha ha..."
The servant was startled by his sudden laughter. Ever since he was transferred to serve him, he had been miserable, being beaten and scolded by him every day. He was so afraid that he might die someday.
"Husband...husband..."
Fortunately, after a while, the Xie family received the news and hurriedly took the already crazy Xie Qingzhi back home.
People in Nanshan City also knew that the son of the Xie family was disfigured and divorced. This time, the Xie family had lost its biggest supporter.
In the carriage.
Zhuxue was tidying up her clothes, complaining all the time.
"Mr. Li is so despicable. He did such a despicable thing in public. He doesn't care about the reputation of the young master at all. His face is so ulcerated that I don't know if it will be contagious. Oh my God!"
He scratched his hand as he spoke, "Why do I feel like my body is starting to itch? What should I do, Master?"
Jiang Huai held his forehead and rubbed it to relieve his fatigue, then looked up at his crying voice.
"There's no redness on your face, so it should be fine. It could be that your clothes are too tight."
Zhu Xue blushed instantly and called out shyly, "Young Master!" Hearing the laughter coming from the front room, he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
When the carriage arrived at the street of Daiying Pavilion, Lan Jiu saw the person who had just got off the carriage in front of the store at a glance, and he raised the whip to speed up.
"Miss."
As soon as Lin Jiaojiao walked into the store, she heard Lan Jiu's voice and turned around in surprise.
"Huh? Why are you here?"
Lan Jiu stopped the carriage and came to her, explaining with a smile: "Mr. Jiang wants to buy some clothes here. Miss, are you here to look at clothes too?"
She first glanced at Zhuxue who got off the carriage, then looked away and looked at the man in front of her who was smiling brightly at her. He was like a little sun.
"No, come and get the mulberries."
After that, he turned to Jiang Huai who was walking slowly towards him and asked, "Cousin, after buying clothes, will you go to Zhiwei for dinner later?"
He was not surprised that she was here. After all, she had shares in the store. Looking at her, he thought of Xie Qingzhi, who had a facial ulcer. He didn't think that his disfigured face was a coincidence.
"Just arrange it."
After he said that, he walked towards the store and the waiter waiting at the door immediately came to greet him.
"Sir, please come this way. We have three new suits in our store. The fabrics are made using the latest tie-dyeing method. The patterns are very beautiful, and the fabrics are skin-friendly and breathable..."
When Lin Jiaojiao saw him come in, she quickly asked Lan Jiu to go into the store and sit down with her, after all, the sun was quite strong outside.
Lin Fen followed the waiter to carry out the freshly picked mulberries and put them on the carriage. Seeing Lan Jiu in the carriage next to them, she knew that she was not needed to take her back to the dessert shop.
"Boss, I'll go back first."
Lin Jiaojiao nodded and said, "Okay, be careful on the road." Then she pushed the snacks that the waiter had just served in front of Lan Jiu.
"Lan Jiu, eat something. I won't eat. I ate some in the store earlier, so I'll save some for the restaurant."
Lan Jiu first glanced at the snacks in front of him, then raised his head and expressed gratitude.
"Thank you, Miss. There is my favorite egg yolk crisp inside."
As he spoke, he picked up a piece and took a bite, then raised his eyes and said with surprise.
"It's delicious! It tastes different from before. Miss, try it too."
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the egg yolk pastries on the dessert plate with confusion. They were all made at home, so what could be the difference?
She picked up a piece and broke it into two pieces. When she looked at the internal structure, she found that it was different. Two new fillings were added, mochi and red bean paste.
She took a bite and tasted it carefully. The salty and sweet taste was indeed much richer in texture and tasted better than before.
"It's indeed much more delicious. I was wondering why Yizhi kept bringing back egg yolk pastries last time. It turns out that they have been improved."
She ate half of it and couldn't eat any more, but there was still half left in her hand. Seeing that the person sitting opposite her had already finished the whole one, she naturally handed the pastry in her hand to him.
"Eat more if you like. I opened it with my hands and didn't touch my mouth."
The implication is to help her solve the problem.
Lan Jiu smiled and reached out to take it. His fingertips accidentally touched her fingers for a fleeting moment, so she didn't think much about it. However, the next words made her ears turn red.
"Even if the lady touches my mouth, the slave is willing to eat it."
