Chapter 363 Monthly Ranking
"I would like to thank Mr. Jiang for saving me this time, otherwise I would have died by now."
"You don't have to be polite, Madam Chen. It's just a piece of cake."
Zou was somewhat sad, "I am sorry to bother you, but I have nowhere else to go now, and I am penniless. Fortunately, I met you."
"Why did Madam Chen collapse on a remote trail? There is no one there, especially since you were seriously injured. Now that you are almost recovered from your injuries, we should consider whether to report to the police."
"No! Please don't report it to the authorities, because it will be useless even if you do." Zou smiled bitterly.
"Why is that?" Jiang Youzhen asked in surprise.
"Because I have been divorced by the Chen family, and my family has fallen into poverty, otherwise I would not have married into the Chen family. They have no chance of seeking justice for me. As for reporting to the police, unless they can catch those people, they will definitely take revenge in the future."
"Divorce?" This time Jiang Youzhen was really surprised.
"Yes! They divorced me because I had been married for many years and had no children. My parents passed away years ago."
Speaking of this, Zou felt so angry that her teeth were itching.
My brother sold me out for wealth and glory and married me to the Chen family. However, the eldest son of the Chen family turned out to be a fool.
Every day I call her sister all the time, and sometimes when she gets crazy I don’t even recognize her.
"Who are they referring to? Even the divorce letter has to be done by the eldest young master himself. Anyone else is just meddling in other people's business."
"Yes, I think so too, so I am very unwilling. I have worked hard for the Chen family over the years, but what has Chen Youde done for the Chen family? He idles around every day, and now he wants to kick me out. It's a good idea."
Zou's chest rose and fell violently due to anger, and the wound was affected. She took a deep breath.
"So what are your plans next?" Jiang Youzhen originally wanted to call her the eldest lady of the Chen family, but when he thought about how he had been divorced, he didn't even know her last name.
"Of course, to take back everything that belongs to me." Zou clenched her fists. She was unwilling to give in!
"But you are now alone, how can you take back everything that belongs to you? I'm afraid you can't even enter the Chen family's door." Jiang Youzhen had to pour cold water on him. In this era of imperial power, if you don't have power, you must have money.
Zou was speechless, of course she knew this truth.
"I will leave this place after my wounds are healed. You don't need to worry about what happens next. Don't worry, I will repay you for saving my life one day."
She mistakenly thought that Jiang Youzhen was mocking her, at least his expression changed after she was no longer the eldest lady of the Chen family, but now she had to bow her head under the eaves and asked Jiang Youzhen to take her in for a few days. Otherwise, with her current health, where would she go after she got out?
"I heard that Madam usually manages all the major businesses of the Chen family, but why was it so easily taken away by the second son of the Chen family?"
"Of course it was because of the villain's trickery. He forged my handwriting, signed my name, and sent someone to steal my private seal. However, the old people in the mansion usually treated me with great respect, but when the truth came out, they all helped the ungrateful wolf to confuse right and wrong."
She was kicked out of the house, and except for her wet nurse, no one stood up to seek justice for her.
"After all, they are a family, and I am just an outsider. After being kicked out, I have nowhere to go. They are so cruel! They kicked me out but gave me nothing."
Just thinking about this, she felt heartbroken. Even her personal maid and Madam Li teamed up with outsiders to bully her.
From beginning to end, only her dowry mother Yang spoke for her. However, because of this, they found fault with her mother Yang, beat her to death, and then sold her.
"But even so, they still feel it is not enough. They want to kill them all."
When I thought of the cold blade, a chill ran down my bones.
"Madam, have you ever thought about why they are so decisive? Madam also said that you have no one to rely on in your natal family. If they drive you out of the house, you will have nowhere to go. What threat does it pose to them?"
Zou was stunned by what Jiang Youzhen said, "Of course it's because they want to seize the family property. To the Chen family, I'm just an outsider. Especially since I don't have any children, how can they trust me to hand over the family property to an outsider like me?"
"Yes and no." Jiang Youzhen smiled and shook his head.
"If that were the case, they wouldn't take Madam seriously, nor would they kill her. To put it bluntly, after being kicked out of the house, Madam no longer poses a threat to them."
"Why is that?" Zou was a little confused.
"The second young master of the Chen family, Chen Youde, hooked up with people from the capital. Those people needed the support of local forces, especially for fundraising. Perhaps it was because of this that Chen Lijun attached himself to those people. And he also took this opportunity to eliminate dissidents and hold the family property in his hands. This also explains why the Chen family, from top to bottom, has thrown themselves on him."
"I know that he is trying to curry favor with a high-ranking official from the capital." Zou seemed to be thinking about something.
"No wonder he acted so recklessly, it turns out he has someone backing him up."
"Madam, do you want to go back home?" Jiang Youzhen suddenly asked.
"I want to! My great revenge has not been avenged yet, and my wet nurse has been sold by them, and I haven't found her yet.
I have worked like a slave for the Chen family for so many years. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard. What is mine must be given to me."
Zou's eyes were determined. Even if she had to fight with those people from the Chen family for the rest of her life, she was willing to do so because she really couldn't swallow this humiliation.
"It's good that you have this ambition, but I'm afraid you'll be scared from now on. You just want to live a stable life."
Jiang Youzhen saw her true attitude and decided to tell her his plan.
"I will help you return to the Chen family, but since the Tongzhoufu wharf is newly built, you have to take over as many shops as possible in the name of your Chen family. We will cooperate, but you will still be the one running the business on the surface."
Zou was a little confused, "Young Master, you want to cooperate with me?"
"You also know that I am a scholar with a reputation. It is not convenient for me to participate in the affairs of merchants, so these things must be done by someone."
Zou understood, and she finally understood Jiang Youzhen's intention.
"Thank you for giving me a chance, sir. As long as I can return to the Chen family, I will follow your lead."
"Then you should concentrate on recuperating here. You will be able to return to the Chen family in less than half a month."
I was a little surprised. Why was this young girl so sure? Did she really have some special method?
The matter had been settled and Jiang Youzhen no longer wasted time.
After coming out of the small courtyard, she kept wondering who would be the right candidate?
After thinking about it, he came up with an idea.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, because it was the day when the results of the provincial school were announced.
"Junior brother, do you have confidence?" Zhong Wende greeted Jiang Youzhen as soon as he saw him coming.
"Man proposes, God disposes! The results have been announced. Let's go and take a look." Jiang Youzhen pulled Zhong Wende towards the place where the results were announced.
At this time, many students had gathered around the place where the results were announced, and everyone was looking forward to it.
