Chapter 615 Love is Shattered
Chapter 615 Love is Shattered
At that moment, all of Xia Chuhe's fantasies about love were shattered.
She did not argue with the scholar, nor did she ask him why he treated her like that.
She only knew that a man who had changed his mind was not worth her staying with.
So she took all the money in the treasury and left only some silver for her two children, asking them to hide the silver and use it well.
Xia Chuhe originally wanted to take the two children with her, but she felt that she came back for revenge, and it would be inconvenient to take the two children with her.
It would be better to let them stay with the scholar for a while, and after she has avenged herself, she will find a way to bring the two children back.
The scholar is selfish and cold-hearted, but he is not so cruel as to harm his own flesh and blood.
Xia Chuhe looked at Ji Nanchuan, as if she saw the shadow of a scholar in him.
Even the words these two people said before were exactly the same.
They all said they would treat her well and that their things would be hers, but in the end, they knew the accounts in their hearts better than anyone else.
Xia Chuhe thought of this and sneered in her heart. She said, "The things in Yongning Marquis' Mansion naturally belong to the Marquis. Chuhe is an outsider and does not want to take advantage of them, nor does she covet them. Please rest assured, Marquis."
Ji Nanchuan: "..."
Ji Nanchuan: "!!!"
His chest heaved with anger. Xia Chuhe had no desire for him, but he did have feelings for Xia Chuhe!
In his opinion, the other party's direct rejection of him was a slap in the face.
Thinking of this, Ji Nanchuan's face turned pale and he said angrily: "Xia Chuhe, you will definitely regret this!"
After he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left angrily, kicking the door hard as he left.
When Mrs. Ji saw that the two of them couldn't reach an agreement on this matter, she slapped the bed and started howling again.
"Hey, Chu He, why did you make Nan Chuan angry and leave? He really likes you and wants to marry you, he's not just saying it."
"As women, don't we all want to marry a good man and have a good family, and have someone to take care of us when we get old? You've already been married once, so how come you can't understand this?"
"Nanchuan is a first-rank official, a senior official in the court. If you miss him, where can you find such a suitable and distinguished husband in the future?"
Xia Chuhe looked gentle, turned to look at Madam Ji, and said, "Madam, you are wrong. As women, we don't have to rely on men to survive. We can make money to support ourselves, right?"
"I admit that the Marquis is a powerful person, but I am not the kind of person who seeks power and wealth. According to your explanation, why are you so old and sick, and have no sons or grandsons to take care of you except Nanny Wang?"
Madam Ji: "..."
Madam Ji: "!!!"
It was already very good that Ji Nanchuan and his grandchildren could come to see her from time to time. Could she really expect them to serve her?
It’s not that she hadn’t thought about asking the other party to take care of her, but she knew in her heart that this was simply impossible.
No one would be willing to spend their time taking care of a person who is paralyzed in bed.
Thinking of this, Madam Ji couldn't help but retort: "They all have their own things to do, how can we let them serve an old woman like me?"
"My grandchildren's hands are used for writing, studying and doing great things. How can I let them do this kind of rough work of taking care of people?"
Xia Chuhe curled her lips slightly and said mockingly: "But I heard that your granddaughter Ji Yuntang took care of His Royal Highness the Night King for a whole year after marrying into the Night King's Mansion, and she did everything herself without any complaints."
"Why can she do it, but these young masters in the Marquis' Mansion can't do it?"
Madam Ji: "!!!"
She couldn't respond to a word of this.
When Ji Yuntang married into the Night King's Mansion, they thought she would be so scared that she would run back crying and beg them, or that she would die in the Night King's Mansion.
But unexpectedly, she not only survived, but also took on the responsibility of taking care of His Majesty the Night King, and started a business by the way.
To be honest, Madam Ji was envious.
She often wondered, if this granddaughter had not been exchanged with Ji Qingqing, and they had not forced Ji Yuntang to marry in place of her, then would the person serving her bedside now be Ji Yuntang?
If they were nicer to Ji Yuntang, would the situation in Yongning Marquis' Mansion be different now?
However, there is no medicine for regret in this world.
Although Old Madam Ji looked down on Ji Yuntang in her heart, she had to admit that he was much more outstanding than any of her grandsons.
As for Ji Qingqing, the Marquis' Mansion had carefully trained her for sixteen years, but in the end, she was not even worthy of carrying Ji Yuntang's shoes.
As much as Old Madam Ji doted on Ji Qingqing in the past, she hates her as much now.
In her opinion, the reason why she had such a bad impression of Ji Yuntang was inseparable from Ji Qingqing's contribution.
When she had nothing to do, she would whisper in her ear about all the bad things Ji Yuntang did.
As time went by, Old Madam Ji naturally disliked Ji Yuntang and felt that she was not as good as Ji Qingqing in any way.
It was also for this reason that now that Ji Qingqing had brought the Marquis' Mansion to this state, she realized how much regret she had in her heart.
Although she was thinking this in her heart, Madam Ji refused to admit defeat.
She said with a dark face: "What is Ji Yuntang's status, and what is the status of my son and grandson? How can she be compared with them?"
"Ji Yuntang grew up in the countryside and was born to work hard. She would feel uncomfortable if you let her do nothing. Since she is married to His Royal Highness the Night King, she is the mistress of the Night King's Mansion. Isn't it normal for her to take care of His Royal Highness the Night King?"
"Since when has taking care of your husband become something worth talking about?"
Xia Chuhe: "..."
As she listened to Madam Ji's words, she felt for the first time that the other party was so unreasonable.
According to what she said, women are born to serve men?
They should be allowed to do all the dirty, tiring and hard work, while the men should hide away and do their so-called big business.
Let me ask myself, is this idea really reasonable?
It's not that Xia Chuhe didn't inquire about the affairs of the Night Palace. She knew very well that Ji Yuntang was good to Luo Junhe, but Luo Junhe did not just enjoy Ji Yuntang's efforts.
He never thought that it was natural for his princess to take care of him. On the contrary, he felt guilty.
In Xia Chuhe's opinion, this kind of thinking is normal.
Instead of being like Old Madam Ji and Ji Nanchuan, who take everything for granted.
Xia Chuhe didn't want to stay in the Yongning Marquis Mansion any longer. She felt from the bottom of her heart that the current Madam Ji and Ji Nanchuan were no longer the two people she knew twenty-five years ago.
