Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

Walking into the room, Chunyu saw Gu Ning lying on the bed with disheveled hair in the dim candlelight.

Her cheeks flushed, and she retracted her outstretched hand.

But at this moment, Gu Ning gritted his teeth and said: "What are you doing in a daze? Let go of my hand!"

Hearing this, Chunyu was taken aback.

She quickly opened the curtain, and saw that Gu Ning's palm-sized face was covered with sweat, and a pair of beautiful eyes were staring at herself angrily: "Untie it for me!"

Chunyu saw the handkerchief on Gu Ning's wrist at a glance, and her cheeks became even redder.

Why... why are you still playing so many tricks!

Seeing Chunyu's face, Gu Ning knew what was going on in her mind, and said angrily: "He tied my hands to get rid of me! What are you thinking about?"

Chunyu immediately lowered her head, and said in an embarrassing way: "Is this servant thinking that you will be with your lord tonight..."

"He can't." Gu Ning gritted his teeth.When Chunyu heard this, her eyes widened in shock.

When she was about to ask carefully, Gu Ning waved her hand: "Okay, you go out first."

Chunyu nodded, and walked out of the room with a complicated expression on her face.

Thank you, sir... no?

Thinking of this, Chunyu shuddered.

……

In the early morning of the second day, it was because he failed to go to Chengcihuai Temple.

——The body of Zeng Zhizhou was transported back to Cangzhou.

At the beginning, the people in Cangzhou were terrified. Even Zeng Zhizhou was dead. Can Cangzhou survive?

Fortunately, the body of Zeng Zhizhou was sent in at the front, and the battle report was sent at the back——Guanzhou was recovered!The rebels are retreating!

As a result, the people of Cangzhou were filled with joy and left Zeng Zhizhou behind.

Zeng Zhizhou was originally a mediocre person who did his best to seek no merit but no faults. His death was impacted by the battle report of the Guanzhou victory, and only the servants of Zeng Zhai remembered it.

The entrance of Zeng's house was deserted and deserted, and the servants even tiptoed around. Only when they left Zeng's house did they dare to speak loudly.

In the front yard, the coffin containing Zeng Zhizhou was placed there. Mrs. Zeng threw herself on the coffin, crying so terribly that even the neighbors nearby could hear it.

"This time Mrs. Zeng is really sad! After all, she is the pillar of the family! Just died like this. She is a widow with two children, what will she do in the future!"

"You worry too much!" The man who knew Mrs. Zeng's family background sneered, "Mrs. Zeng came from the Tang family. The Tang family will not just ignore her. When she returns to the Tang family, her life will only be better than in Cangzhou!"

There are not a few people who know Mrs. Zeng's family background. Most women feel envious. In fact, Mrs. Zeng has such a strong family background. ?Now that Zeng Zhizhou is dead, Mrs. Zeng is still out of the predicament, but her sons and daughters... It's hard to discuss relatives!

They were thinking about this matter, and in the name of visiting Mrs. Zeng, they inquired about Mrs. Zeng's next move.

Mrs. Lan is the mistress of the Lan family, a local wealthy family in Cangzhou. She and Mrs. Zeng have a good relationship because of their congenial temperament. Seeing Mrs. Zeng's eyes are red, she is full of puzzlement.

But thinking of the dead Zeng Zhizhou, she sighed again: "Although he is not a good person, he has given you three asylum anyway. Now that he is dead... have you thought about a way out?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Zeng slowly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said in a low voice: "What else is there to do? It's just to take the two children to the capital to see if my parents can look for my face and find a way out for them. A good marriage, as long as they live well, I will have no worries."

Speaking of this, tears flowed out of her eyes again.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lan sighed: "Don't blame me for speaking harshly, it's just your current status... It's not difficult to remarry, but if you want to choose a good marriage for the two children, it's not easy, okay There are only a few of them, and the good ones selected by the Tang family will only stick to their own family first. As for the grandson and granddaughter, they will naturally be left behind, and they can only pick up the rest.

Madam Zeng lowered her head and sighed softly: "I know, but what can I do? Now I only rely on the Tang family."

Seeing her pale face, Mrs. Lan couldn't help feeling sorry for her: "If you need anything from me, just mention it, and I will do my best to help you. If you don't mind, those two boys in my family..."

Before he finished speaking, several hurried footsteps came.

Madam Lan showed a vigilant look, looking out the door anxiously.

Under the watchful eyes of her and Madam Zeng, Pei Anlin led Gu Ning and a few soldiers, striding forward.

Seeing Gu Ning, Mrs. Lan's heart tightened. She had heard of this Changning county lord for a long time, but she had never seen a real person. Today, she saw that she was indeed a stunning beauty. I'm afraid the whole Cangzhou couldn't find such a sign. people.

And she can only think of one person who can make Changning county magistrate follow respectfully behind him - General Pei!

While thinking about it, Mrs. Lan had already guessed the identity of the person who came.

Mrs. Zeng took a step ahead of her and called out the identity of the person who came.

"I've seen General Pei, the county magistrate of Changning." Mrs. Zeng saluted the two of them staggeringly, her face was already stained with tears, and she looked extremely miserable.

Before Bihua beside her had time to support her, her feet softened and she knelt down on the ground.

Mrs. Lan and Mrs. Zeng have known each other for seven years, and she has never seen her in such a state of embarrassment. Her eyes became hot, and she quickly knelt down towards the two of them: "General, county magistrate! Mrs. Zeng is too sad, it is inevitable that she will lose her manners." , please don’t…”

"Chunyu, help Mrs. Zeng in." Gu Ning said, "Mrs. Zeng is too sad, and it is reasonable to be rude. We are not unreasonable villains, how can we blame her?"

After hearing this, Madam Lan breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Ning turned his gaze to Mrs. Zeng, seeing Mrs. Zeng's red and swollen eyes and blurred makeup, and greatly admired her acting skills. She deserves to be a woman who came out of the back house, but she is different!

Mrs. Zeng leaned on Bihua, and said weakly: "Thank you General Pei and the county chief for your compassion. Now I... it is really inconvenient to meet guests. If you two..."

"Madam Zeng, don't worry, I'll leave after I've finished speaking." Pei Anlin said in a deep voice, "Zeng Zhizhou took the lead, and he did not hesitate to sacrifice his own life in exchange for intelligence on the enemy army. I will definitely tell you about such a feat when I return to Beijing." The emperor clarified them one by one."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zeng's eyes flashed with excitement: "General Pei's words..."

"Once a man says something, it's hard to follow." Pei An said loudly, "Madam Zeng, please don't worry."

Mrs. Zeng covered her chest, showing a smile that was uglier than crying: "That's all right... that's all right!"

Seeing her losing her composure, Mrs. Lan stood up subconsciously, covering her strange appearance at the moment.

After Pei Anlin said this, he left with Gu Ning.

Madam Zeng and Madam Lan were left in the front hall.

Madam Zeng couldn't bear the joy in her heart, she lay on Madam Lan's shoulder, "crying bitterly", if she could get the emperor's reward, those things I was worried about would never happen again.

Hearing this, Mrs. Lan patted her on the shoulder pitifully: "I know your suffering. General Pei has always had a good reputation and never takes credit for his subordinates. Since he has said so, he will definitely stand up for you in front of the emperor." A few good words, if you can give Zeng Zhizhou some titles, your life will be much easier in the future, but the matter of your remarriage... I am afraid it will not be so easy to operate."

If Mrs. Zeng chose the glory brought about by Zeng Zhizhou's sacrifice, then she might have to guard Zeng Zhizhou's memorial tablet for the rest of her life.

But Madam Zeng smiled wryly, and said slowly under Madam Lan's gaze: "I know what I should do."

"You know, men are unreliable." Mrs. Zeng said softly, "What if I remarry? There is no guarantee that the person is not another Zeng Qian. Instead of taking the risk, it is better to just guard Zeng Qian's memorial tablet after the end. For half a lifetime, both Zeng Qian's parents died, and all the members of the Zeng family were left with only my two sons and daughters. If I spend my time and effort for a man, the man may not be grateful, but if I spend my time for my children, they will definitely respect me. Keep it in mind."

What's more, even if a pair of sons and daughters don't respect her, according to Chu's etiquette, they still have to confess her, because in Chu's country, unfilial piety is the most important thing!

Mrs. Lan was stunned for a while after hearing these words.

But she quickly came to her senses and looked at Mrs. Zeng with a complicated expression.

"You... really think so?"

Mrs. Zeng nodded slowly: "Yes, I just thought about it just now. Even if there is no reward from the emperor, I will not abandon my two children and remarry. The reason why I stayed in Cangzhou for more than ten years is precisely My sons and daughters! How could I abandon them?"

Madam Lan knew that this was the choice Madam Zeng would make.

But when she saw Mrs. Zeng's calm and dark eyes under the blurred makeup, she suddenly trembled, and a strange feeling rose in her heart.

Can a distraught woman really understand her own needs in a few words?

Or...she had expected today?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Lan felt a chill run down her back.

She opened her mouth, but before she could speak, she met Madam Zeng's eyes.

"you……"

"Alan, I'm going back to the capital soon." Mrs. Zeng patted the back of her hand and said warmly, "If you encounter any troubles, please write to me. You are the person I trust the most in Cangzhou, and you are also My best friend, I don't want to lose touch with you."

In an instant, the panic in Madam Lan's heart was suppressed.

She held Mrs. Zeng's hand tightly, and said word by word: "You have to be good, I will go to the capital to visit you."

……

There are not a few people who come to Zeng's house to visit, some are good sisters who are worried about Mrs. Zeng, and more come to ask Mrs. Zeng to collect debts.

The money they took out was frighteningly large, and some women even came to the door with their infants in their arms.

After sending away wave after wave of people, when she saw Wan Niang holding her belly and glaring at her with hatred, the mask on Mrs. Zeng's face was finally removed.

"What are you doing here?" Mrs. Zeng sneered, "Could it be that you are here to be buried for him?"

Wanniang caught a glimpse of the coldness in Mrs. Zeng's eyes, and the chill rushed up her spine in an instant. She pointed at Mrs. Zeng and said every word: "You killed your lord!"

Her voice was extremely sharp, she stared at Madam Zeng and said: "Master also said a few days ago that he would take me to stay and fly together! How could he go to the front line? You must have coaxed him to go!"

Hearing this, a chill appeared in Mrs. Zeng's eyes.

Wanniang's eyes became more and more determined. When she thought of Zeng Zhizhou's promise to her, she said again: "You poisonous woman! I must expose you in front of the world!"

"Where else can you go?" Mrs. Zeng smiled lowly, she wiped off the makeup on her face slowly, without even giving Wanniang an extra look, "I originally wanted to let you go, but you If you come to your door by yourself, don't blame me for being cruel."

Hearing this, Wanniang subconsciously stepped back.

But at this time, the gate was closed, and the courtyard was full of Mrs. Zeng's people.
