Trying to Fob Off a Beggar?

Wen Shichang held his wife's hand and said, "Wife, don't believe him."

Madam Wen shook off his hand and said, "Do you think I believe you? Get out of my way."

Zhou Wanwan grinned, and Wen Shichang looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "You've heard the saying 'disaster comes from the mouth,' right? Don't talk nonsense, or you'll suffer the consequences."

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "Retribution? If you're not afraid of retribution, why should I be?"

Madam Wen looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Here's 2000 taels of silver. Take it."

Holding the silver note, Zhou Wanwan pointed at Wen Shichang's sister-in-law and said, "Wen Shichang has an improper relationship with his sister-in-law, and her child is his."

Wen Shichang's sister-in-law's expression changed, and she said, "No, this child isn't Wen Shichang's; it's Wen Shichang's older brother's."

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "Oh! Is that so?"

Wen Shichang's sister-in-law glared at Zhou Wanwan and said, "How can you talk such nonsense, child?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at her and said, "Am I talking nonsense? Aren't those letters in your room evidence?"

Wen Shichang's sister-in-law trembled with fright and said, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Madam Wen slapped Wen Shichang's sister-in-law across the face and said, "Hahaha... How ridiculous! I raised your children as my own, and you dare to treat me like this!"

Wen Shichang knelt down and grabbed his Madam Wen's clothes, saying, "Wife, let me explain."

Madam Wen stared at him coldly and said, "Explain yourself."

Wen Shichang stammered, "This matter is..."

Wen Shichang's sister-in-law took a deep breath and said:

"It's true. I was very sad when his older brother passed away."

Wen Shichang came to comfort me, and that's how we had a child.

Wen Shichang shouted, "Sister-in-law, shut up!"

Wen Shichang's sister-in-law, her eyes red with tears, said, "Wen Shichang, why should I shut up? We were clearly together first."

The people around them were all in an uproar. Zhao Kun swallowed hard and said, "Is it really that exciting? This plot is too melodramatic."

Zhou Wanwan said from the side:

"Actually, Wen Shichang is disgusting. He transferred all the family's money to his sister-in-law."

His sister-in-law took all the money, including his wife's dowry.

Zhao Kun looked at Wen Shichang and said, "Really? Boss, how did you know?"

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said, "I figured it out with a quick calculation!"

Wen Shichang's friends all looked at Zhou Wanwan with horrified eyes.

Zhou Wanwan grinned and said, "Would you like to have your fortune told too?"

Everyone quickly waved their hands and ran a good distance away.

Someone said, "No, no, no need to calculate, thank you."

Wen Shichang looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "You just wait."

Zhou Wanwan made a face at him and said, "Hehe, you dare to threaten me?"

Wen Shichang, his face turning ashen with rage, said, "What I want to tell you is that I'm not threatening you, but I will absolutely not let you get away with this. You just wait."

Zhou Wanwan shrugged indifferently and said:

"Do as you please, you tampered with your wife's food."

I originally didn't want to talk about the fact that she hadn't been able to conceive all these years.

Well! Wen Shichang's face darkened.

Madam Wen realized that this might be true, so she went directly to see a doctor.

Soon, the doctor looked at Madam Wen and said:

"You do have a health problem; it's likely that the infertility is caused by long-term use of a certain medication."

I don't know the specific medication, but you've likely been taking it continuously for years, which might make it difficult for you to conceive."

Madam Wen turned pale and nearly fainted.

The maidservant beside her quickly supported her and comforted her, "Miss, what should we do now?"

Madam Wen said, "Report to the authorities and request a divorce."

Wen Shichang hugged Madam Wen's legs and said, "Madam, please don't do this. You'll ruin me."

Madam Wen laughed heartily:

"Ruin you? You've ruined me, why can't I ruin you?"

Wen Shichang, I hate you, I hate you to death.

Neither love nor hate.

Madam Wen was also completely disappointed in Wen Shichang.

The two families divorced quickly, and the news spread rapidly throughout the city.

Zhou Wanwan's fame skyrocketed.

Sun Tai knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly, and said, "Father, I was wrong. I never expected Zhou Wanwan to be so amazing."

Master Sun kicked him and said:

"There are many things you don't know. Do you know what 2 million taels of silver means?"

Everyone outside is saying that our Tongtai Bank is going to go bankrupt.

Do you know how many people are queuing to withdraw money? And how many people are laughing at us?

Sun Tai looked up at him and said, "It's all that Zhou Wanwan's fault. She ruined me. What am I supposed to do now?"

Master Sun sighed and said, "What else can we do? We have to find a way to get rid of her. Only by killing her can we save our Tongtai Bank."

A hint of madness flashed across Master Sun's face. He had painstakingly built up his money shop over many years, only to have it ruined by a little girl. How could he accept this?

The Sun Family raised a group of assassins, and soon more than 100 assassins were sent out.

Sun Tai knelt beside him and said, "Father, you sent everyone out? Is it really necessary to send so many people to deal with a little girl?"

Master Sun snorted coldly and said:

"A young girl? You think she's just an ordinary young girl?"

Are you out of your mind? Would a truly ordinary young girl act like this?

He won 2 million taels of silver in one night.

Sun Tai said, "I always felt something was off about this girl. I sensed something was off when she was gambling yesterday."

Something was amiss here, and the Cui Family on the other side also felt something was wrong.

The first thing Old Madam Cui did upon waking was to ask the nanny beside her, "How is it? Did Cui Wenyuan sign the contract?"

The old woman beside him wiped the sweat from her brow and said, "It's indeed signed."

Old Madam Cui laughed heartily and said, "Good, as long as he signs this contract, it's a done deal."

The old woman knelt down with a thud. Before she could say anything, she saw Cui Wenyuan and Old Master Cui walk in.

Old Madam Cui looked at Cui Wenyuan and said:

"You scoundrel, I heard you went to the gambling den yesterday?"

You've lost a lot of money. Do you even know you're part of the Cui Family?

"You owe so much money, how do you plan to pay it back?"

Cui Wenyuan kept his head down and remained silent.

Old Madam Cui angrily retorted, "Now you're mute? Do you know how utterly shameful you've become? How much money did you borrow? I heard it was 100,000 taels!"

Cui Wenyuan nodded and said, "Yes, I borrowed 100,000 taels yesterday."

Old Madam Cui trembled with rage. "You unfilial son! Old man, kick him out! We don't need such an unfilial son in the Cui Family."

Old Master Cui smiled and said:

"Oh dear! What's the rush? Although borrowing money is wrong, that person won over a million taels yesterday with just 100,000!"

Our Wenyuan is quite filial; he gave me 100,000 taels for spending money!

Old Madam Cui exclaimed, "What? Over a million taels? How is that possible?"

Old Master Cui said, "Let the child say it himself!"

Cui Wenyuan smiled slightly and said:

"I was lucky yesterday, and I kept winning. I won more than 1 million taels of silver."

Actually, I didn't expect that either, Mother. You must be quite happy, right? I was even planning to give you 100,000 taels of silver!

He simply pulled out 100,000 taels of silver, which was a slap in the face.

Old Madam Cui's face instantly darkened. Yesterday, Cui Wenyuan had spent over 300,000 taels of silver, and today he was only giving her 100,000 taels.

What's this?

Are you trying to get rid of a beggar?

Old Master Cui looked at Old Madam Cui, "Is this little something from the child not enough?"

Old Madam Cui reluctantly accepted it, saying, "How could I complain about the amount? It's just that going to the casino is truly disgraceful and deserves punishment..."

Then they saw a whole group of his family members rush into the courtyard, with the eldest sister-in-law leading the way shouting:

"Wang Cuizhi, you shameless old hag, you actually let my son go to the casino to gamble."

Now look what's happened, you've lost everything, what are you up to?
