Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

Chapter 1282 The Divorced Merchant's Daughter 4

Ok?

Mr. Zhang was taken aback. He looked in the direction Shu Jiao was pointing and then couldn't help but rub his eyes.

No, no.

How come he saw his father's grave, and it looked like there was a hole in it?

I opened my eyes again and took a look.

The dark, sunken hole stood silently, mocking him.

Mr. Zhang felt his limbs go weak, and he walked over with uneven steps. Incredulous, he stubbornly raised his hand to touch it, to see if he was hallucinating from anger.

That one touch, and he was dead.

It’s over.

There really is a hole.

The culprit who caused the Wen incident not only burned down his family's grave, but also destroyed his father's grave!

"puff!"

Mr. Zhang felt a tightness in his chest, then coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell straight to the ground, his eyes tightly closed.

"father!"

"Master!"

Zhang's mother and the second son of the Zhang family were immediately flustered and at a loss.

At home, Mr. Zhang and his grandmother, the two pillars of the family, were both numb. They each supported one of them, not knowing what to do.

Yo ~

It's no wonder she casually dug that hole last night; it came in quite useful.

However, it seems this family isn't very resilient; before they could even fully discover the "surprise" she buried, two of them fainted.

Tsk.

Shu Jiao glanced at them with disdain, flicked her handkerchief slightly, and said, "What are you all standing there for? Mother, Second Brother, help Grandmother and Father back home. I'll go to the village entrance to fetch a doctor."

After that, she turned and left.

Madam Zhang and the second young master Zhang nodded blankly as they listened, and quickly helped the two of them back into the house.

A group of villagers were left behind. They looked at each other, and everyone knew exactly what they had said.

Such a big thing happened—the ancestral grave of a scholar was burned down. This scholar also had a son who was an official in the capital. No matter what, the village chief and the county magistrate had to come and investigate.

However, the consequences of Shu Jiao's actions were not good.

The village chief and the county magistrate investigated for three consecutive days, but found nothing.

If no human intervention can be found, then it can only be attributed to fate.

For a time, no one in the village dared to approach the Zhang family.

Some families who wanted to send their sons to Zhang's tutelage to learn a few words and read books also kept quiet, fearing that they would be tainted by bad luck.

Shu Jiao was too lazy to serve them, so she took Zhang Shu back to the Shu family home.

Upon seeing her return, Shu's father remained calm. "Such a big thing happened to the Zhang family, and you weren't there to help them. Why did you come back?"

"How can we not come back?"

Shu Jiao sighed softly, "Everyone says the Zhang family has been cursed by heaven. Although I married into the Zhang family, my surname is Shu. If I stay there and get bad luck, what if it affects our family?"

Shu's father: !!!

That makes sense!

But it also feels like a very strong argument that's being unreasonable.

However, now that Shu Jiao has returned, her father can't just kick her out like that. "You can stay with Shu'er for a few days, and then go back."

"The Zhang family needs you right now,"

As he spoke, Shu's father's eyes flickered slightly, and he said earnestly, "Jiaojiao, listen to your father. Zizhao is in the capital, and you don't often accompany him. You've only given birth to a daughter for him, so your relationship isn't very deep."

"You need to win over the Zhang family so that they will have someone to back you up in the future!"

“Father is right.”

Shu Jiao frowned slightly. "I suppose my husband must have a female confidante in the capital. As for me, his wife who has shared his hardships, alas~ if my husband is heartless, I'm afraid he will abandon me."

Shu's father: ...

No need to think about it?

All men in the world are like this.

The fact that they haven't been able to bring you and Zhang Shu to Beijing for five years is already a big problem in itself.

Shu's father seemed to be touched by her distressed appearance, which stirred a little bit of his fatherly love. "You and Zizhao have a childhood bond. As long as you are more humble, he will miss you a little."

But then he thought of Zhang Zizhao's promise of a bright future, and... the beautiful mistress who was supposedly fertile, who was sent to him.

That mistress, she's said to be off her period this month, she's probably having a good time.

The Shu family is about to have a successor!

Thinking of this, Shu's father calmed down and didn't say anything more. "Later, I'll have the accountant give you ten thousand taels of silver. Keep it safe."

Zhang Zizhao is right.

If the merchant's daughter becomes his legal wife, it will definitely affect his future. He can't let Jiaojiao ruin their good relationship!

"it is good."

Shu Jiao nodded, not asking any further questions, and just smiled at her father, "Father, you treat your daughter so well."

Shu's father: ...

cough!

He raised his hand to drink tea, looking slightly guilty. "Go talk to your mother; she's been missing you terribly these past few days."

Shu Jiao watched him drink the tea, then smiled meaningfully, "Alright, Father, then I'll go to the backyard first. I suppose Shu'er misses her grandmother too~"

"Third son, how is it?"

As soon as she stepped out of the front hall, Shu Jiao asked.

003 chuckled, "Don't worry, host. I've carefully selected this combination of materials from the warehouse. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

It contained a headache-inducing drug;

It also contained a heart-wrenching powder;

They also added a bit of poison that would cause a stroke if the person was stimulated.

Finally, they also sprinkled some things that would cause diarrhea, frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, tinnitus, palpitations, and even mental impairment...

A covered bowl of tea, half of it was covered in powder.

Fortunately, the tea was boiling hot, which made the medicine powder dissolve quickly; otherwise, Mr. Shu would have swallowed half a mouthful of powder with a mouthful of water.

Even a ghost would know something was wrong.

"here you go!"

Shu Jiao praised them, then narrowed her eyes slightly, "If you ask me, these two companies are just as disgusting, so they should receive the same treatment."

"Host, what do you want?"

003 immediately became interested and chuckled several times. "Sure, Li Family Village isn't far from Sanzhong Village. We can go there at midnight and be back before dawn."

"Please check the route."

Not urgent.

There's no rush.

She can go to the Shu family's hometown after she has finished dealing with everything at the Zhang family's place.

Thinking it over, she took Zhang Shu to see Shu's mother.

When Shu's mother saw her, her expression unconsciously carried a hint of guilt and unease, but...

She really didn't dare to disobey her father's wishes.

"Jiaojiao, you...you're back! Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

In just a few seconds, Shu's mother adjusted her expression, and her gaze towards Shu Jiao and Zhang Shu was as loving and gentle as ever.

"Mother, the Zhang family's ancestral graves have been burned down."

After saying that, Shu Jiao laughed meaningfully, "Everyone in the village is saying that Zhang Zizhao did something heinous in Beijing that angered both heaven and man, and that's why he's being punished by heaven."

A terrible thing that angers both heaven and man...

Shu's mother thought of the time a few days ago when her husband conspired with Zhang Zizhao to demote her daughter Jiaojiao from wife to concubine.

not……

Could it be that the Shu family also...?

Shu's mother thought with some unease, but said aloud, "How could that be? It must be malicious sabotage. If Zizhao really did something wrong, how could he still be an official?"

"Indeed. But my husband hasn't invited me and Shu'er to the capital for five years, and I'm really uneasy about it."

Shu Jiao lowered her eyes slightly, picked up her teacup and blew on it lightly. "But thinking about it, my husband isn't the kind of beast who would abandon his wife and daughter, be mean and heartless, climb the social ladder, and be ungrateful."

Shu's mother: !!!

She felt a pang of unease and carefully examined Shu Jiao. "Jiao Jiao, you..."

Could it be that Jiaojiao has found out something?
