After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

"She has been stupid for a long time, what's the point of worrying about it now?

Chu Chi was her only biological son, yet she could be fooled by the Gu family into giving him up just like that!

I guess her brain is like that for the rest of her life, what else can you expect from her?"

Minister Chu never had a good tone when he mentioned this annoying sister. If he wasn't afraid of bringing criticism to the family and making others think that he, the Chu family, could easily give up the marriage relationship, which would affect the choice of spouses for the family's offspring in the future, he really wanted to be cruel and break off the marriage!

Having been following her around to sort out things for her for so many years, to be honest, regardless of whether it was hard for Old Chu or not, he really felt that his life was miserable!

The eldest son's complaints made the old lady even more depressed.

People say that if you raise a son for a hundred years, you will worry for ninety-nine of them. The old woman probably didn't do anything good in her previous life, so she has such a bad karma in this life, and she has to torture her whole family!

"Ugh!"

The old lady herself had a worried look on her face, but she also tried to say some words of persuasion to comfort her eldest son.

"Let your fourth sister decide what happens next. We should fulfill our responsibilities as elders and look after the seventh girl. This can be regarded as making up for her negligence as a mother.

My son, I know it’s hard for you.

But after all, we are blood relatives. The seventh girl has suffered so much since she was a child, and she is so pitiful that she is not liked by her family. If we, as her in-laws, don't care about her anymore, how can she survive in this world?"

"I know."

Complaints may be complaints, but responsibilities still need to be taken. This is what makes people different.

When some people encounter a child they are not satisfied with, they will just think of kicking him out of the house. However, some people will try their best to bring the imperfect child under their wings and protect him as much as possible.

People call this character.

Minister Chu put down the teacup in his hand and sighed.

"There is one thing I haven't had time to tell you in detail. Isn't Chu Chi staying at Shen Mufeng's house now?

He always told others that the man was his savior and that he wanted to keep the man temporarily to repay his kindness.

But after careful observation, I can now confirm that the little wolf cub clearly has evil intentions towards Chu Chi!"

The old lady's eyes narrowed, with a hint of dissatisfaction flashing across them.

"Shen Erlang is both talented in literature and martial arts, and he is also handsome. He is indeed a rare match in the capital.

However, it is not suitable for our family to marry.

There are not many good people in the Zhennan Marquis's mansion, and the Seventh Girl's character is not suitable for getting involved in this mess. I don't agree."

"Don't be so arbitrary, these are just my own guesses.

But I just sounded out the situation with Youan, and that smart kid seemed to quite agree with Shen Mufeng's existence.

Perhaps, they have a destiny. Who can tell clearly about such things?

Don't be anxious, mother. Just listen to what I have to say."

Minister Chu leaned towards his mother, lowered his voice a lot, and expressed his thoughts clearly.

"Think about it, when Fourth Sister didn't want to marry the King of Qin as his second wife, she ran away from the marriage. Who knows if it wasn't because we were too strict at the time that made her rebellious? That's why she was deceived by Gu Chuanrong's sweet words and tricks?"

Thinking about not beating the idiot to death right away, Minister Chu slapped his thigh in regret.

"In order to settle the family affairs and appease the late emperor's anger, my fifth sister, as the legitimate daughter of the Chu family, became the concubine of the King of Qin! Every time I think of this, I want to beat that idiot Chu Yushu to death!"

Thinking of her youngest daughter who passed away long ago, the old lady instantly burst into tears.

"Hua'er must be blaming her family, otherwise why hasn't she appeared in my dreams for so many years? It's because I, as a mother, am useless that she passed away at such a young age..."

Every time the old mother mentioned the fifth sister, she would feel so guilty that she couldn't stop crying, and Minister Chu could only comfort her in a low voice.

"Mom, please stop crying. I'm not saying this to make you sad.

I just want to say that the lessons of the past are there. If Chu Chi is as stubborn as her mother, we can't force her to do what she should do!

You have to consider carefully what kind of treatment you give to different guests and what kind of dishes you serve to them, right?

Anyway, she still hasn't figured it out yet, and with Youan watching closely beside her, I don't think Shen Mufeng will be able to take advantage of her. So it's better to let go than to block, let's just wait and see what happens!"

Knowing that what her eldest son said made sense, the old lady nodded.

She is old now, and is not as good as her eldest son in seeing the depths of the officialdom in the capital. The only thing she can do now is to manage the whole family and make sure they all obey the arrangements of her eldest son.

"I see."

Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, the old lady remembered something else.

"I vaguely heard a few days ago that there seemed to be something wrong with the consort Feng that Princess Chenghua hired? Is it true?"

Speaking of this matter, Minister Chu's old face immediately turned black with anger.

"Yes!"

The old lady couldn't help but open her eyes wide, and her breathing became a little unstable.

"What should we do? How could Chenghua, a daughter of the royal family, become a concubine for no reason? What is the attitude of the emperor? And what does Jing'er mean?"

A series of questions, each more urgent than the last, made the old lady really worried!

Although Princess Chenghua has never been willing to get close to the Chu family, that was the child that her youngest daughter had given birth to at great pains. How could the old lady not be worried about him?

"The emperor reprimanded me yesterday, and Prince Xuan didn't get any good results. I should have done a great deed when I came back from my mission in Jiangnan. But this time, I was held back by Princess Chenghua."

He let out a long, helpless sigh.

"Sometimes I just can't understand why my fifth sister, who is such a smart girl, gave birth to a daughter like Pei Jingyu?

Not to mention her stupidity, the key point is that she is also vicious. A princess of the royal family can actually bend down and do things like to torture someone else's original wife!

I'm so angry just thinking about it that I don't have the energy to curse.

Really, mother, I suspect that Princess Chenghua has such a personality because she must be like her biological father and adoptive mother, and has nothing to do with me, the daughter of the Chu family!"

Every time he mentioned this niece, Chu Zhankui wondered what bad things he must have done in his previous life to have such weird relatives!

Because of the guilt they felt towards Chu Yuhua, the Chu family had taken good care of Pei Changjing and his sister over the years. Otherwise, how could a pair of young children without their mother's protection grow up peacefully in the backyard of the Prince of Qin's mansion?

The current Concubine Zheng is the former concubine of Prince Qin.

The reason why she didn't dare to touch Pei Changjing and his sister was because the Chu family made their attitude clear. Whoever dared to touch their grandson would be fought to the death!

Over the years, Pei Changjing knew very well how much effort the Chu family had put in to raise them.
