Shi Wanzhen hesitated for a while, looked at her niece, and mustered up the courage to ask, "You said that day that if a woman was divorced and returned home, the Marquis' Mansion would accept her. Does it still count?"
Now that the family has been divided, where can she go if she returns? Who will accept her?
Shi Anxia walked down the stairs, pushed open the gate and walked out, standing opposite her, and said seriously, "Aunt, the Marquis's Mansion is your foundation. Although it is a separation, as long as you think clearly about the future, your uncle and aunt will make arrangements. All the dowry you brought back will belong to you."
Shi Wanzhen lowered her head in embarrassment, "I, I may not be able to bring back the dowry."
Shi Anxia thought she was afraid that the Song prince would not give it to her. "If the Bo family wants to deny you the dowry, I will personally bring people to help you get it back. If the matter gets out of hand, and the Bo family embezzles the woman's dowry, let's see how he can survive in the capital."
Shi Wanzhen was even more embarrassed, "No, it's not embezzlement, it's, it's..."
She couldn't speak anymore.
Shi Anxia looked at her indescribable expression and frowned, "You didn't take the initiative to hand over the dowry to him, did you?"
Shi Wanzhen's tears fell like pearls from a broken string. Moreover, she sold her dowry and happily handed the silver to Song Shizi, and she was very happy at that time.
She whimpered and told Shi Anxia the truth, but once she started talking, she couldn't stop.
Shi Anxia's face darkened when she heard this, "Although grandma is confused, she is very good at managing money! How could she raise someone like you..." If she had not respected the elders in the past, she would have called Shi Wanzhen a fool.
Shi Wanzhen said, "I was stupid! The prince told me that he wanted to buy an official position, so I sold all my dowry to give him the money. But I didn't get the official position back, and the number of concubines and maids in the harem increased."
As there were more women in the harem, the phenomenon of competing for favor began to emerge.
What does she have to fight for? Isn't it just money?
Every time she, the mistress of the courtyard, wanted to invite the prince of Song to have a meal or sleep over, she had to prepare enough money. Otherwise, the prince of Song would be very unhappy and turn his face away from her.
Shi Wanzhen didn't consider Shi Anxia as an outsider at all, and didn't care that she hadn't reached the age of marriage yet. She felt that she couldn't help speaking out her heart, and once she did, she realized that Prince Song was even worse than her brother!
Her brother Shi Chengxuan at most liked to brag and drink outside, and the concubines he brought back were all good girls.
Prince Song didn't care. As long as she was pretty, he would pamper her to no end, even if she was a prostitute.
The Prince of Song often indulges in lust during the day and would moan loudly several times in an afternoon.
This caused her children to always ask why there were always ghost cries coming from the aunt's courtyard?
At first she didn’t understand what ghost screams were, and she followed her children to quietly listen. The result... was really embarrassing for her ancestors!
Shi Anxia saw that Shi Wanzhen began to daydream, so she asked, "Did Prince Song ask you to go back?"
Shi Wanzhen nodded and said, "When I won the second place in the Golden Luan Test, Prince Song sent someone to take me home. But I was afraid, so I didn't agree."
Shi Anxia smiled coolly, "It seems that Prince Song has the capital to brag outside recently. He must be talking about how great his first wife's nephew is. Aunt, think clearly whether you want to divorce completely. If you want to divorce, we will start to arrange it, but you can't turn back. If you don't want to divorce, just go back and be tough."
"I don't know either." Shi Wanzhen lowered her head, not daring to look at her niece.
