Chapter 384: It turns out that the third place winner is not good enough!
Du Lu quickly followed a peddler towards the inn where he was staying.
His thoughts were racing, and the look of anticipation on the vendor's face told him what had happened in the inn.
Although he pretended to be anxious, Du Lu was almost laughing with excitement in his heart.
It would be best if Liu died under his suggestion, so that he could openly propose to marry another woman. As for making a fuss about divorce, it was simply impossible. With Liu's soft personality, she would digest all her emotions by herself and then die quietly, ensuring that she would not leave any trouble for himself.
However, Du Lu did not expect how devastated Liu would be when she received the divorce letter, and he did not expect that Liu would meet her sister, whom she trusted very much, before she even walked out the door.
Then he said everything in a flash. He never expected that Liu still had her father in her heart, and she did not go out to commit suicide as he wished, but borrowed money to return home.
"Madam~Madam~"
Du Lu cried and pushed aside the crowd, pounced on a figure lying on the ground, hugged her and cried loudly: "My wife, how could you leave me? I just passed the imperial examination, and our good days are just coming~~"
The crying made everyone who heard it sad and everyone who saw it shed tears.
Unfortunately, the onlookers already knew what Du Lu had done before. No matter how sadly Du Lu cried, the onlookers said: "Just act! Act as hard as you can! See if we will believe it."
Yang Chengyun, who was being held, said: Let go! Let go!
Unfortunately, Yang Chengyun was beaten by Li's servants and then by the onlookers, and he really had no strength to struggle.
Li stared in amazement as Du Lu hugged her husband and cried.
Liu was also startled, and after a long while she said, "Husband, I'm here, I'm not dead."
Du Lu paused in his crying expression, and looked back in disbelief at his wife who was sitting well on the chair. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes. Why didn't she die? Why was she still sitting here?
So has the issue of his divorce been exposed?
Before Du Lu could think about it, Li had already spoken.
"Tanhua Du, you gave Sister Liu a letter of divorce. As a scholar, you should know that one of the three things you cannot do is to be poor at first and rich later. You just passed the imperial examination and have not been assigned an official position yet, but you can't wait to divorce Sister Liu. Aren't you afraid that the masters in the court will find out?"
Du Lu was stunned for a moment, and immediately found an excuse for himself: "You mean the divorce letter? My mother forced me to write it. I never thought of divorcing my wife. I don't know how my wife found it."
Du Lu turned around and said to Liu: "My lady, don't worry, how could I divorce you? You and I have always been together and have a deep affection for each other..."
A series of nice words were spoken just to please Liu.
But Liu no longer dared to believe Du Lu, because she had just seen with her own eyes that Sister Li's husband was about to sell Sister Li.
Sister Li told her that if she didn't want to be divorced or sold without knowing it, she should not trust Du Lu. Today's matter must be sorted out, and they must divorce amicably. Otherwise, Du Lu had already thought of divorcing her, and who knew what he would do next.
"But...but I saw you write the divorce letter with my own eyes. Don't blame it on mother-in-law. She treats me very well. And this morning, a kind person told me that you were going to divorce me, but I just didn't believe it."
"*of!"
Du Lu couldn't help but swear. Liu had actually changed her personality. If he had said more nice things to her before, she would have been confused and followed his words.
He glanced at the people around him. They were all looking at him with contempt. If he didn't resolve the divorce issue today, his reputation would be ruined. Besides, it would be difficult to fool this wife.
Du Lu made up his mind, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "I have no choice. We have been married for almost ten years, and we have no children in ten years, not even one. I am so old now, I need an offspring."
After hearing what Du Lu said, Liu felt guilty: "My husband, it's all my fault that you are incompetent and still don't have a child in your twenties."
Li looked coldly at Li Feng's affectionate face, and the coldness on her face deepened. Even at this time, this Du Lu still planned to fool Liu's sister. She just clapped her hands.
A nanny stood up behind Li.
"Master Tanhua, I am the maidservant beside the young lady. I am not very capable, but I can tell at a glance that your wife is still a virgin. You want a virgin girl to give birth to your child. Isn't this embarrassing?"
A woman who has been married for nearly ten years is still a virgin!
The eyes of the people around him lit up.
"Master Tanhua, you are not capable of this!"
After saying this, the nanny didn't stop there. She also took a look at Du Lu's lower body.
Du Lu's face immediately turned red.
"How can I not do that!"
The words came out of my mouth.
"Then why don't you consummate your marriage with your other wife?"
Seeing Du Lu's face turn pale in an instant, Mammy smiled slightly and pretended to have suddenly realized something.
"Master Tanhua, I understand. You can do it! You can definitely do it!"
"Hey hey hey..."
"Hey hey hey..."
The onlookers all laughed obscenely.
He is a top scholar, and will soon be an official. This is related to a man's dignity. How can he admit that he is not good enough?
"Understand!"
"We all understand!"
"Master Tanhua, please take care of yourself."
"Master Tanhua, you must cherish your wife. There are not many wives like you who will not despise you."
·····
One after another, words of consolation, some well-intentioned and some gloating, succeeded in making Du Lu's face become a mixture of all colors.
