Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Generally, young masters of wealthy families would move to the outer courtyard after they turned thirteen. Some of the maids around them would be taken as concubines, while others would be taken as their own wives if they saw a girl they liked.

Especially someone like the Crown Prince of Chu. The Marquis of Chu had only this one son, so naturally he doted on him to the utmost.

Prince Chu has never had any control over beautiful women. Few maids with outstanding looks can escape from his clutches.

Indeed, no one would use this as a reason to resist the marriage, and Wei Zhong and the Marquis of Chu ultimately decided on this marriage of interests, which was based on interests. Who would consider whether the Prince of Chu could be wholeheartedly devoted to Wei Bingru in the future?

However, if a young lady in the family who has not married out has the courage to control the maid in her own brother's house, it would be wrong if this were to get out.

A girl, who is not the head of the family and is just a younger sister, dares to beat the people in her brother's room out, or even kill them directly. This is not just about beating a few maids, but also an insult to her brother's face.

If this matter gets out, what will others think?

They must all think that Miss Chu is so powerful that she doesn't even take her brother seriously, and they even think that Prince Chu is a weak and vulnerable man who is oppressed and bullied by his own sister.

Excuse me, which young lady dares to marry into the Chu family? Wouldn't she have to depend on her sister-in-law's mood to be a human being?

Even if the Wei family and the Chu family eventually marry their children for some benefits, they would naturally have to think about it after hearing such a thing. After all, the one who will be the head of the Chu family in the future is a daughter who married out. What does that mean?

Mrs. Chu's face turned blue and white. She understood her daughter's character better than anyone else. Her daughter beat out the people in her son's room because these maids were bribed by other concubines with benefits.

In order to prevent her son from being seduced and deceived, she thought she had kept these things secret very well. How could they be spread to the capital?

"Wei Bingyan, you are talking nonsense. This is simply not happening!" Chu Xuying did not have the patience of Mrs. Chu, and immediately responded sharply and harshly.

She no longer looks like a little white lotus. She has gradually returned to her usual shrewd and willful image.

"Whether this matter is true or not, the Chu family knows it better than us. Truth will come to light sooner or later!" Wei Bingyan said calmly.

"Enough, Bingyan, don't say anything more!" Xiao knew that Bingyan wanted to find a way to cover up Wei Bingru's intention to commit suicide, but she didn't expect that she would actually say such a thing.

This is the secret of the Chu family. After all, if it gets out, Chu Xuying will never be able to marry into a wealthy family in the future. One should marry a virtuous woman. Who would want a daughter-in-law who doesn't understand the rules?

Mrs. Chu gave Chu Xueying a stern look, signaling her not to continue, and forced a smile on her face, "This must be something that some unruly maids made up after being beaten. There is definitely no such thing!"

Xiao smiled and said, "We naturally believe that there is no such thing. Mrs. Chu, let's go watch the show, shall we?"

Everyone recovered from their surprise and their eyes moved between Chu Xuying and Wei Bingyan. Deep down, they all had the same thought: although this girl from the Wei family was notorious, looking at her carefully today, she already had an elegant and gentle demeanor at her age. She was not at all like the rumors that exaggerated the facts.

On the other hand, although Chu Xuying seemed to be bullied, her facial features revealed a serious and sinister look. She even had the courage to hit the people in her brother's room. I guess there is nothing she can't do.

It seems that the rumors in the past cannot be fully believed as expected!

How could Mrs. Chu have the leisure to watch the show at this time? She forced a smile with Xiao and said, "It seems that there are many misunderstandings between our two families. We need to have a good chat another day."

"It's good that the misunderstanding has been clarified." Xiao said with a smile.

Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief. These two were people she could not afford to offend. She was originally worried that they would go home disappointed, but now it seemed that things were stable. As a hostess, she could not just listen to gossip. She hurriedly and enthusiastically invited everyone to the stage to watch the show.

Chu Xueying gave Wei Bingyan a fierce look.

Wei Bingyan followed closely behind Xiao, and when she noticed Chu Xueying's eyes, she tilted her neck and smiled brightly at her, which made Chu Xueying so angry that her liver and lungs ached.

Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Chu took the lead and walked out. The ladies following closely behind them stared at each other.

They could see people gloating over other people's misfortune and feeling secretly happy about the constant addition of topics to talk about, but the main character of the topic was right in front of them, so they didn't dare to open their mouths and continue the discussion.

Mrs. Chu watched the show reluctantly. She didn't even eat her delicious hot lunch and couldn't sit down anymore, so she left.

Mrs. Liu tried again and again to persuade them to stay, but Mrs. Chu said perfunctorily that she had something else to do at home, and said she would come back another day, then left in a hurry with Chu Xueying.

After Mrs. Chu left, many people surrounded Xiao, constantly talking about how Wei Bingyan was slandered by Chu Xueying in the past, "...I said that Miss Wei seemed to be reasonable, not the kind of overbearing person."

"Today I understand that someone is not upright and deliberately framed me."

"Mrs. Wei, it turns out that Miss Chu is so domineering at home. It's terrifying just to hear that!"

Xiao smiled faintly and said nothing. There were some things they could only do. After all, the Wei family and the Chu family were still relatives.

Seeing that Xiao didn't want to talk about the Chu family, everyone gave up trying to find out more and once again focused their attention on their host, Mrs. Liu.

Although Mrs. Liu had lost a lot of momentum today, she had already thought about what would happen when Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Chu got together, so she was not too worried. She just wondered how the wind would blow next.

On the way home from Madam Liu's house, Xiao finally had the chance to ask Wei Bingyan how she found out about Chu Xueying. "... Could it be that you were looking for the maids that Chu Xueying beat up?"

Wei Bingyan said, "How could they find these maids in such a short time? They just bribed a servant of the Chu family with benefits, and learned all these things from that guy. In fact, some of them were my daughter's own speculations, and I didn't expect them to be correct."

Xiao smiled brightly, shook her head and sighed, "Even I was shocked just now. I didn't expect Chu Xueying to be such a domineering person."

She originally didn't want to have a serious fight with Chu Xueying. After all, Chu Xueying was just a little girl in her eyes. But the other party didn't seem to be ready to give up, and she had to take the initiative. With Wei Bingru's incident as an excuse, she could kill two birds with one stone. She could find a reason for Wei Bingru to commit suicide, and deal with Chu Xueying at the same time.

"In this case, Mrs. Chu will probably force her to discipline herself. Otherwise, my sister will have a hard time living in the Chu family." Wei Bingyan said calmly, but there was no real expression of concern for Wei Bingru on her face.

Xiao said softly: "Chu Xueying is not necessarily the opponent that the second lady is standing on the opposite side."

Wei Bingyan thought of something and a mocking smile appeared on her lips. Even she almost suffered a setback at the hands of Wei Bingru, let alone Chu Xuying.

It is said that after Mrs. Chu left Mrs. Liu's place, she immediately went home and forced Chu Xueying to go back to the house and not go out. Then she went to find Lord Chu and told him what happened today.

After hearing this, Marquis Chu was furious and asked Madam Chu to send Chu Xuying to house arrest immediately to restrict her freedom and reflect on her mistakes. He personally wrote a letter to Wei Zhong and asked Madam Chu to find Xiao the next day to explain all the misunderstandings. He did not accept any twists and turns in this marriage.

Mrs. Chu had always obeyed her husband's words, so she immediately nodded in agreement.
