I was chased by my sickly junior brother who had two lives
Chapter 134 You are not wrong
The drizzle was as light as silk, gently hitting the eaves of the second floor of the teahouse, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
Outside the window, the rain was dense and lingering, like countless crystal silk threads slowly falling from the gray sky. The raindrops splashed on the bluestone road, splashing tiny water drops, which instantly broke into countless water drops and spread out in all directions, as if broken dreams were struggling in the world.
Shallow puddles gradually formed on the streets, reflecting the lead-gray clouds in the sky and the blurred shop signs on the street. The whole world seemed to be distorted and unreal in the rain.
Chen Jue and Chen Jia sat under the eaves, quietly looking at the misty rain outside the window, falling into a peaceful and slightly sad atmosphere.
"Sister, you know what? I really don't care that you're getting married for the second time."
Chen Jue was the first to break the silence. He turned his gaze gently to Chen Jia, his eyes full of determination and affection.
Chen Jia lowered her head slightly, with a touch of emotion and helplessness in her eyes. "Ajue, the prejudices in this world are not so easy to change. I have tried hard before. I fought on the battlefield and earned the title of female general who protects the country with my military merits. I thought that this would make people truly respect me and not dare to trample on me easily."
Chen Jia's voice was slightly bitter. She slowly raised her head, looked at the hazy rain scene, and continued, "However, I found that this only made people respect me on the surface. They still have deep-rooted prejudices in terms of personal morality and marriage. The female relatives have never stopped their verbal criticism, and I really don't know how to make them shut up."
Chen Jia's eyes revealed a deep fatigue and confusion. She once thought that her efforts could change everything, but the reality made her feel extremely powerless.
Chen Jue gently held Chen Jia's hand, giving her warmth and strength.
"Sister, don't be discouraged. Everything you have done is already remarkable. Those people's prejudice is their narrow-mindedness, not your problem. As for the gossips of those women, I will find a way to completely dispel their ridiculous perceptions. I will make them understand that women who are remarried also have the right to pursue true love and are equally worthy of respect and love."
Chen Jia turned around and looked at Chen Jue in confusion. "Jue, this is not an easy thing to do. Those people's ideas are already deeply rooted. What are you going to do?"
Chen Jia's eyes showed both expectation and a hint of worry. She knew Chen Jue had good intentions, but she also knew how difficult it was to change the current situation.
Chen Jue smiled slightly, with confidence and wisdom in her eyes. "Sister, leave this matter to me. I will let you know my way."
Chen Jue gently embraced Chen Jia in his arms and stroked her hair. Chen Jue's voice was gentle and firm, and his embrace was warm and comfortable, making Chen Jia feel an unprecedented sense of security.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to handle it."
They just hugged each other quietly, listening to the sound of rain, as if they were the only two people left in the world.
Since Liao E was publicly reprimanded by Chen Jue on the street, the resentment in her heart was like a raging fire, burning more and more. She felt that she had suffered a great humiliation, and she blamed Chen Jia for all this.
She was full of dissatisfaction, and had only one thought in her mind, which was revenge. So she hurriedly found her cousin Wang Yuan, who, as the prince's concubine, had a certain status and influence in the palace.
As soon as Liao E saw Wang Yuan, she couldn't wait to cry and complain: "Cousin, you must help me! That Chen Jia, a woman who is married for the second time, I don't know what tricks she used to make Brother Chen Jue so crazy. She also caused Brother Chen Jue to treat me like that. I really can't swallow this breath!"
Liao E cried so hard that tears welled up on her face, with an expression of grievance and anger mixed together.
Wang Yuan was also furious when she heard this. She had been upset about Chen Jue's accusation against her cousin Wang Cheng, and was worried that she could not find a chance to vent her resentment to Chen Jue.
Now Liao E's matter had just hit her target. She secretly calculated that this was a good opportunity to teach Chen Jia a lesson and give Chen Jue a severe blow.
"Okay, cousin, don't cry. I will definitely help you with this matter. I will hold a banquet and invite Chen Jia. At the banquet, I will make sure she knows how powerful I am."
A sinister light flashed in Wang Yuan's eyes. She had already thought out a series of plans to make things difficult for Chen Jia in her mind.
Not long after, a seemingly luxurious and lively banquet was carefully prepared in the palace. The palace where the banquet was held was decorated with gold and jade, and the vermilion door was open, as if to welcome the arrival of guests from all sides.
Walking into the palace, I saw the high-hanging palace lanterns emitting soft and bright light, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime. The banquet table was filled with a variety of delicacies, dazzling and dazzling. The guests were dressed in gorgeous clothes and took their seats one after another, greeting each other.
"Oh, today's banquet is so grand!" a lady exclaimed.
"Yes, the Crown Prince's concubine is indeed extraordinary." Another lady echoed.
The whole scene seemed harmonious and joyful, but in fact, there was a mystery hidden. Chen Jia, wearing a light and elegant dress, walked quietly into the banquet hall.
As soon as she appeared, she keenly felt some strange looks directed at her, but she still tried to remain calm and saluted Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan was sitting in the main seat. When she saw Chen Jia come in, a barely perceptible sneer appeared on her face.
"Sister Chen Jia, it's my honor that you can come today."
"Thank you for the invitation, Madam Crown Prince. Chen Jia feels honored."
After the banquet started, Wang Yuan couldn't wait to implement her plan of making things difficult for Chen Jia. She first deliberately raised her voice and brought up some topics about marriage and women's morality, glancing at Chen Jia from time to time, her intentions were very obvious.
"Sisters, you said that a woman's character and marriage are of vital importance. If a remarried woman behaves improperly, she will really become a laughing stock."
As Wang Yuan spoke, she stared at Chen Jia closely, her eyes full of provocation.
Chen Jia's expression changed slightly. She knew in her heart that Wang Yuan was deliberately targeting her.
"That's right. A woman who has remarried always has something to be talked about."
A lady at the side responded quietly. Although her voice was not loud, it was loud enough for Chen Jia to hear.
Seeing that Chen Jia didn't react, Wang Yuan thought she was scared, and felt even more proud.
She went on to say, "Sister Chen Jia, I heard that you were married before. How is it like to be married for the second time? Please tell us sisters about it so that we can learn more."
Wang Yuan's words were full of sarcasm and ridicule. Some of the guests around couldn't help but laugh softly after hearing them. Those laughs were like sharp needles, piercing Chen Jia's heart.
Chen Jia looked up at Wang Yuan and said, "Madam Crown Prince, marriage is a personal choice. Everyone has their own story and experience. Although I have a past, I am also working hard to live."
"Hmph, that sounds nice. A remarried woman is nothing but a poor creature clinging to a man."
