The Wenhao system helped me become a killer

I never felt that it was shameful that I had used various means, such as love wine and pretending to be pitiful, to get pregnant. In this situation, I would either be forced to go back to my parents' home with no way to make a living, or I would fight hard to earn a chance to live and have a future. To use a saying I heard later, it doesn't matter if the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat.

No matter what, the final result was that I was pregnant, and I could no longer leave the Shen family, and I had the confidence to stand on my own feet. To be honest, at that time, I didn't have much feelings for Shen Yanqing. I was in danger of dying, so how could I have the time to talk about love between men and women!

I know that in the eyes of that dirty old man Shen, the eldest son and grandson still have a very high status. As long as I give birth to a child, it won't have any impact even if Shen Yanqing doesn't come back in the future. I just need to raise the child well, and as long as the Shen family doesn't fall, I can have better hopes in the future.

Unfortunately, after all the hardship, I gave birth to a girl. God knows I felt like the sky was falling. In this world, the future of girls is always much more difficult.

My mother-in-law's expression changed instantly. For the sake of my newly developed maternal love, I quickly pretended to be particularly disgusted and successfully handed my daughter to my mother-in-law. After all, Jiaojiao was the granddaughter of the Shen family. Even if my mother-in-law didn't care about the girl in the family, she could still ensure that she would raise the child well.

Actually, I was a bit naive at that time. I thought that since I succeeded once, I should try again. I couldn't be so unlucky every time and give birth to only daughters! Unfortunately, I was smart, and the woman Shen Yanqing had outside was not a fool. She kept this man from coming back for several years.

I can still give birth, but who would dare to acknowledge the Shen family if I give birth?

I took the initiative to show weakness to the outside world, handed over the hot stewardship, and slowly became quiet in the Shen family's mansion. Although I am not as glorious as before, and people compliment me wherever I go, fortunately I did things with the idea of ​​leaving a way out for the future, so I didn't offend too many people.

The days when I lost power were relatively easy, and the monthly allowance was not too harsh. I finally managed to live a smooth life, so I naturally thought of Jiaojiao, and now I can raise the child by my side.

I've had enough of being stuck in this little yard day after day and year after year. Maybe having a child can help pass the time.

I still vaguely remember how anxious I felt when Jiaojiao had a high fever. Perhaps I cared about this child more than I thought. Even though she was not the grandson I had been dreaming of, who could support me in my old age and see me to the end of my life, she was still a piece of my flesh and blood!

I still remember the moment I took Jiaojiao out of that small courtyard. The little yellow-haired girl was held in the arms of the old woman. Her eyes were so smart and kept rolling around, full of curiosity about the outside world.

I felt funny and sad at the same time. Poor kid, I guess he didn't leave the courtyard very often. Unfortunately, he ended up living with his useless mother in another sparsely populated courtyard.

With Jiaojiao, I instantly felt that my life was much better. Sitting in the yard, sewing, I watched her jumping and kicking shuttlecock, so happy.

But our good days of loving mother and filial daughter will soon be over. Jiaojiao is more resistant to foot binding than I thought. Maybe I scared her last time.

I dragged a rather large speaker and strode towards the open space where I had an appointment with my old friends. Although every step was somewhat painful, I was once again glad that I did not insist on binding Jiaojiao's feet.

To be honest, you can't blame me at that time, right? I also hoped that Jiaojiao would have a good future. At that time, every family that could afford it would bind their girls' feet. The feet are the second face of women, so they are very important!

Who would have thought that the world would change so fast? It's so fast! At the beginning, everyone admired the beauty of bound feet, but as soon as some new idea came out, we women with bound feet became the remnants of feudalism.

Oh, it's really interesting to think about it now. Could it be that we women are all masochists, who like to ask for trouble, break our leg bones at a young age, endure the pain day and night, and wrap our feet into tiny ones?

It's all men's fault. Of course, I was always proud of my three-inch golden lotus at that time and didn't have such thoughts. Instead, I looked down on women who didn't bind their feet and thought they were vulgar and restless.

I didn't expect Shen Yanqing to come home again. I wanted to take this opportunity to get some more money from him to provide myself with some security. Jiaojiao, no matter how good she is at studying, she can't pass the imperial examination and become an official unless she is a boy. Maybe she will be like me in the future, moving from one small courtyard to another for the rest of her life.

When Shen Yanqing said he wanted to take Jiaojiao away, I was really stunned for a moment, but I quickly reacted. Compared to me, a useless mother, Jiaojiao's future should be much better with Shen Yanqing as her father.

I can see that Shen Yanqing has a sense of rare treasure in his eyes, but this is not contradictory, right? Women always have to get married. In this turbulent time, even if it is to be a concubine of a powerful man, it is better than marrying a so-called good man and living in fear.

Of course, I would not waste such a good opportunity and make a big profit. Shen Yanqing felt guilty, but I really made a lot of money.

Unfortunately, my parents' family fell into decline faster than I could have imagined. After Jiaojiao passed away, I put all my energy into helping my parents' family. As a result, I helped them one last time, definitely for the last time, really for the last time. Not only did I spend all the retirement money I had saved with great effort, I also gave a lot of Jiaojiao's money to them.

It's not that I didn't regret it at that time, but the brother who was honest and capable at the beginning has changed beyond recognition. He can do almost anything for money, and I can only perfunctorily deal with him.

Half of my life was almost ruined by the Shen family. It is impossible not to hate them. When I realized what my mother-in-law and my fifth brother's wife thought, I was not too surprised. After all, if a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. No matter what, it is safer to keep the money in my own hands.

Speaking of which, I still admire my mother-in-law for her decisiveness. But it's also true that if she wasn't decisive, given Old Man Shen's philandering, he would have created so many babies, and all of the money would have been shared by her children.

No one knows how quickly the Shen family is falling apart, and I have also put in a lot of effort during these years of dormancy.
