Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 251 Which one is my master's wife?

Shuya agreed and cheerfully brought over paper and pen.

Master Bai picked up his pen and wrote down eighteen charges against Lady Xue, before finally throwing the letter of divorce on the ground.

"Just sign this, I'll give you the last bit of dignity."

Madam Xue picked up the letter of divorce with trembling hands, saying incredulously, "Master, you want to divorce me? Just for such a trivial matter?"

The usually stoic and restrained Master Bai suddenly erupted in anger: "A small matter? You selling my daughter to an old widower is a small matter? You yelling at my mother and showing great disrespect is also a small matter?"
I've never treated you unfairly in any way, so don't blame me for being ruthless since you're taking advantage of your good life.

Madam Xue was shocked again. In the past, no matter what she did or said, her husband never cared.

She could even tell him to his face that he was fat or old.

But now, just because she argued with Madam Bai, she wants to divorce her?

Madam Xue completely ignored the bad things Bai Lu had done and focused on the fact that Bai Lu had been disrespectful to the old lady.

She knelt on the ground and slowly moved to Old Madam Bai's side, crying, "Mother, I was wrong. Even if you beat me or scold me from now on, I will endure it and never talk back."

Madam Bai felt as if she had swallowed a fly's dropping, and her whole body felt uncomfortable.

What does she mean? Doesn't her saying this make everyone think that she used to abuse her daughter-in-law, beating and scolding her?

Is this an apology or a plea for forgiveness? It's clearly annoyance to her.

"Please don't, I can't bear it, I want to live a few more years."

Our temple is too small to accommodate someone as great as you. You should go back to where you came from.

Madam Xue remained silent and fainted from crying.

Shuya wouldn't tolerate her, so she stepped forward and slapped her twice, which woke her up.

Madam Xue gritted her teeth and said, "I won't sign or put my fingerprint on anything. You can't force me, can you?"

Bai Lu asked doubtfully, "Our Bai family acts with integrity and honesty. Why would we force you?"

Madam Xue breathed a sigh of relief; she had made the right bet. So what if Old Man Bai wrote a letter of divorce?

As long as she doesn't agree, sign, or put her fingerprint on anything, they are still legally husband and wife.

She would then have a reason to continue living in the Bai residence, and there would be plenty of time to slowly persuade the old man Bai later.

Bai Lu will get married someday, and the Bai family will eventually belong to her son.

Madam Xue was overjoyed, and a smile appeared on her lips.

But soon, she couldn't laugh anymore.

Bai Lu took out the letter of divorce, pointed to the bottom, and said, "You have already signed it voluntarily, what are we forcing you to do?"

When Xue opened her hand, she realized that there was red clay on it.

"You...you cheated me, your Bai family forced me."

Shuya stepped forward and said, "It wasn't the Bai family that forced you; I just saw that you wanted to sign the document, so I helped you out."

Xiao Yishan said calmly, "Yes, I can testify."

“I can also testify,” Chu Xiu and Xiao Wu said at the same time.

As soon as Xue fainted, Shuya took her hand and signed the document.

When Xue saw Chu Xiu, she was furious: "You heartless wretch! I'm your aunt, and you're helping outsiders bully me! I... I'm going to tell your father!"

“If my father comes, I’ll say the same thing,” Chu Xiu said nonchalantly.

"Guards, throw this vile woman out of here!" With a command from Master Bai, Madam Xue was thrown out the door.

She fell to the ground, clutching her back in pain, unable to get up for a long time.

Having nowhere to go after being divorced, Xue could only go to Yingtian Academy to look for her son.

Chu Yu didn't have time to pay attention to her, so she shamelessly went to her ex-husband Chu Yingtian.

Seeing that she was pitiful, Chu Yingtian found her a room to stay in.

After driving Xue away, Bai Lu hurriedly led Bai Yuanwai to the county government office.

Aunt Li and the others are still in jail; she's going to rescue them.

When Magistrate Chu saw Master Bai and Bai Lu, he was stunned for a moment but quickly understood.

"Since Miss Bailu is unharmed, then the Li family and others are naturally innocent."

The cell door opened, and the jailer unlocked the chains binding Li Ruru and the others. Bai Lu threw herself into her arms and said, "Aunt Li, I've made you suffer."

Li Ruru smiled and said, "I haven't suffered much. I have food and drink here, and I don't have to work."

Pan Dayan said, "That's right, I feel like I've gained weight."

Hai: "It's very peaceful here, but it's not very convenient to relieve myself."

At the same time, Fang Xingzhi arrived with Shen Kuo.

Shen Kuo took out his waist token and swaggered into the cell.

Magistrate Chu rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things, but only when the other person got closer did he realize he wasn't mistaken.

He was about to kneel when Fang Xingzhi pulled him up and whispered, "Don't kneel, the prefect is traveling incognito."

The magistrate of Chu understood immediately and quickly stood up straight.

"Hey, old man Fang, you're here!" Pan Dayan's shout drew everyone's attention.

Fang Xingzhi smiled and pointed to Shen Kuo beside him, saying, "This is... one of my students."

Shen Kuo nodded slightly, curiously examining the women in the cell, but after a long time he couldn't figure it out.

He asked Fang Xingzhi anxiously, "Which one is my master's wife?"

Pan Dayan was confused: "What master's wife?"

I heard from Li Ruru that Fang Xingzhi got divorced, so why is there suddenly a teacher's wife appearing now?

Hai: "Looking for a teacher's wife? Shouldn't we first find a matchmaker to bring them together?"

What are you looking for in the jail cell? Go find a matchmaker!

Peipei and Chaochao exchanged a glance and covered their mouths to giggle.

Shen Kuo carefully sized up the group. One had a loud voice, and the other was too old. Neither of them were his master's type.

There are also two little girls, Master... do you have this hobby?

Fang Xingzhi coughed, realizing that if he didn't explain, he would become a pervert in Shen Kuo's eyes.

He said softly, "Aru, everything at home is ready, let's go back quickly."

What sounded ordinary to others was quite significant to Shen Kuo.

It's unbelievable that my master can speak in such a gentle voice.

Wait, what did Master just call that woman?
"Aru? Your name is Aru?"

Li Ruru said awkwardly, "Um... my name is Li Ruru, everyone calls me Aru. You... can call me that if you want."

In her view, it was just a name, insignificant.

In Shen Kuo's opinion, that was absolutely unacceptable.

The fact that his master addressed this woman so affectionately suggests that, barring any possibility that his master had a perverted pedophilic tendency, he was certain that Li Ruru was his master's wife.

Since she was his teacher's wife, how could he dare to address her by her given name?

He would never dare to call her Aru.

"Um, Ms. Li, this way please."

Li Ruru smiled and said, "Young master, since you are a student of Master Fang, why don't you come to my home for a visit?"

"Okay!" Shen Kuo readily agreed.

Fang Xingzhi said with a stern face, "Didn't you say you still had things to take care of?"

"It's nothing, I'm very free right now." Shen Kuo chuckled.

Seeing this, Magistrate Chu shamelessly asked, "Um, Li, may I come to your house?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was greatly surprised.

“That won’t do, it won’t do,” Li Ruru said.

How could the magistrate of Chu, with his noble status, possibly go to her house?

Besides, their imprisonment this time is inextricably linked to him, and she still wants to vent her frustrations about him behind his back.

If he goes, what will she say?

Magistrate Chu wanted to visit Li Ruru's son, and also wanted to get acquainted with Shen Kuo.
