So What If You've Been Reborn?
Chapter 254 Antecedents
Back at the Sheriff's Mansion, Chen Xingniang was still restless,
The maids and mother-in-law thought it was the Zhong family's troubles, and they all hung their heads and dared not say a word.
Chen Zhen has been an official outside for many years, and when he seldom went back, the servants in the mansion only said that it was an old house when they mentioned Yunzhou. , the service of the servants was a little unsatisfactory, and she didn't beat and scold her name explicitly, but only secretly made troubles to toss others.
Seeing that the married Chen Xingniang came back, no one in the Chen family dared to make trouble.
It was getting hotter and hotter, and the cicadas were singing endlessly on the trees. Chen Xingniang was restless and ordered someone to take a stick to stick it. She just thought the tea was not good enough, and the clothes were too thin.
A woman hurried over, wiping her tears and persuading: "You are a widow, how can you wear bright colors?"
"Zhong Hu is dead? He doesn't know where to be happy?" Chen Xingniang disdainfully.
The woman was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and reprimanded in a low voice: "You can say this, now that the household registration in the government office is gone, Zhong Hu is a dead person through and through, why don't you die?" Remarry!"
As he spoke, he looked around again, seeing that the maids were obediently backing away, so he reassuredly taught Chen Xingniang: "Although the Lord Magistrate only raised your one daughter, you know his temper."
——The marriage of children is not as important as his face.
As soon as Chen Zhen was worried, he dared to neglect Xingniang when he was the son-in-law of Hanlin in the capital. When he heard that his daughter was beaten so that the doctors came to the door, Chen Zhen was already very angry. As for what happened later, it just happened to hit him excuse.
Just like the servants of the Chen family were muttering in their hearts whether the uncle was murdered by the young lady, Chen Zhen's concubine was also not sure whether Zhong Hu was killed by someone sent by Chen Zhen.
Such an ungrateful and ignorant son-in-law, from Chen Zhen's point of view, obviously wasted his daughter for nothing, so it's better to take Chen Xingniang back to get married.
If there is no reputation for divorcing his wife, Zhong Hu can only die.
The woman didn't know whether Chen Zhen had the ability to kill people in the capital. She just felt that this guess was very likely, so she became more and more uneasy, and she didn't dare to tell the truth about her guess. Thinking that the sheriff is angry with his beloved daughter, you have to make it look like the real thing, otherwise how would you marry again?"
While talking, she shed tears, and suddenly frightened Chen Xingniang.
"Auntie, why are you crying? What is there to regret about that short-lived ghost in Zhonghu?"
When Chen Xingniang thought of Zhong Hu, she hated Zhong Hu suddenly, and Zhong Hu suddenly turned his face and kicked her until she vomited blood. Chen Xingniang could not have known that Zhong Hu from her previous life was reborn, so she thought that Zhong Hu had an outsider, and she hated the decline of the Chen family.
For such a person, she would rather Zhong Hu die even if she was under the name of second marriage and was pointed at by others.
"It doesn't matter if you marry back to Yunzhou, the scholars there probably don't care much about remarrying." The woman felt that she had seen through those poor scholars, "Like the Zhong family, poor will return to poor, and their stinks will return." A bunch of them, a scholar from the whole clan feels like a fool, and the Chen family is such a noble family, marrying a concubine to him is nothing but pie in the sky..."
"Auntie!"
Chen Xingniang yelled in displeasure with a sullen face.
She was married off as the daughter of Chen Junshou. The Zhong family is useless and can't tell if it's true or not, but the servants of Chen's dowry know that Chen Xingniang will stare at those people. If she dares to reveal her secret, she will be drugged. After dragging it out to sell, as time goes by, even when she returns home, she can't see others talking about her status.
"What are you afraid of? You are not able to inherit the family business. If the matter is revealed, does the Zhong family still have the ability to sue?" The woman was furious.
Chen Xingniang didn't want to entangle her with this issue, so she had to avoid losing her temper: "I don't want to marry back to Yunzhou, what's so good there, barbarian land, full of foreigners!"
Chen Xingniang has never been to Yunzhou in her life, she just takes it for granted.
The woman was angry and anxious: "How did you talk, Yunzhou County is very prosperous..."
"My aunt and I can't decide this matter." Chen Xingniang interrupted her impatiently.
The woman was speechless for a moment, how could she not know what Chen Zhen was thinking?Yunzhou is remote, and most of the officials there have been demoted, so it is difficult to have a bright future. How could Chen Zhen marry his daughter to such a place where she is no longer needed?
The woman was still upset, and Chen Xingniang couldn't wait to ask: "Auntie, do you know about my elder brother who is said to be lost in Yunzhou?" The woman was taken aback when she heard the sound.
She is not young, and among Chen Zhen's concubines, she is also the most unlucky one, but she has been with Chen Zhen the longest, and Chen Xingniang feels that she is the most likely to know something.
Another one might be Mr. Song, but Chen Xingniang dared not ask.
Sure enough, the woman frowned deeply: "For no reason, what are you talking about?"
"My daughter saw a person in Tiancui Garden today, whose appearance was somewhat similar to that of her father. Even if there are people with similar appearance in this world, I feel—" Chen Xingniang insisted, "That is the elder brother who was rumored to be lost in Yunzhou."
"That child is a fool." The woman was surprised.
"A fool can be cured!"
"This……"
Chen Xingniang pestered her biological mother, begging for a while, and then persuading: "Father now only has one son and one daughter, and Jidi is only four years old. Who knows what he will be like when he grows up. His biological mother, Aunt Wang, is used to putting on a show. If it falls into their hands, what will you do, Auntie? If you can get that brother back, it would be great to add trouble to Auntie Wang."
Chen Xingniang's real plan is that the Chen family is such that she will send it to that elder brother through a bridge. No matter which family she marries in the future, with this little affection, wouldn't she be able to live a better life.
Going a step further, she saw that Chen He was well-dressed and had a big show. No matter how he looked, he was a good backer, and she might be able to find an even better family for her.
The woman hesitated for a moment: "That young man, really... looks similar?"
"Is this still fake?"
"No..." The woman shook her head and said in a low voice, "Why do you think your father hasn't returned to Yunzhou for many years? Before you were born, Madam was still alive! But the master never returned to Yunzhou until he died. Have a look."
"What does this say?"
The woman looked around, and then she whispered into Chen Xingniang's ear, "Someone must be doing something wrong. Before Madam married, there were rumors that her reputation was ruined."
"Ah?" Chen Xingniang was shocked.
"If it is passed on, it loses all face. The master is not happy and wants to withdraw from the marriage, but Mrs. Tai firmly refuses, and the other party is also the daughter of the same family. How can the two good surnames be so easy to let go? Just drag it like this We got married."
When the woman talked about the old things many years ago, she was also very entangled: "You know what kind of temper the master has. He sleeps in the study after worshiping, and ignores the madam. In the end, the madam is very upset. It is deadlocked, and I don't know who it is. The drug was secretly given, and it was done, and the master left Yunzhou the next day in a fit of anger, and never went back."
After listening to it for a long time, Chen Xingniang felt that it was not a big deal at all: "It's just a medicine to add to the fun—"
The woman hesitated to speak.
"Auntie, what else did you say?"
"You...Master thinks the medicine came in a strange way. After receiving a letter from Yunzhou saying that Madam is pregnant, he is even more certain. He thinks that the child is not his, but a wild seed that Madam conceived before entering the house, and Madam gave the medicine. It's so heavy that it makes people drowsy."
"This is real?"
Chen Xingniang only knew that she had an older brother, and today she found out that there were so many inside stories.
"How can I know if it's true or not?" The woman murmured after thinking for a long time, "Mrs. Tai took care of that child back then. I think these are all rumors, not true. If the person you meet is If it’s that child, the truth will be clearer.”
Chen Xingniang felt a little tongue-tied, and had a little bit of pity for her aunt's misfortune, but then she felt that Chen Zhen wanted to save face too much, so she made such a fuss about it.
"Okay, it's getting late, you should go to bed early."
The woman stood up, and finally she did not forget to persuade Chen Xingniang to give up her thoughts: "If what happened back then was true, the master would have worn a cuckold on his head; I will admit it, and you don't need to waste this effort!"
Chen Xingniang agreed with all her mouth, but she didn't take it seriously in her heart: Auntie didn't see the man's posture, I'm afraid it's his father who wants to curry favor with him!
Face is not face, in the face of benefits, can Chen Zhen really refuse?
The woman knew that it was useless to persuade her, so she could only leave worriedly.
She is the daughter of the steward of the Chen family, and she was a maid when she was not a concubine. All this is her old memory. At the beginning, she had a vague guess, but it was too shocking, and no one believed it.
——The ones who ruined my wife's reputation before she married into the Chen family, those who drugged her later, and those who messed up the house the next day were all done by the second wife. I don't know if it was Young Master Mi's father or Young Master Mi's mother. Anyway, it was all for conspiracy The ancestral property of the Chen family.
The long-term husband and wife are at odds, and even hate each other. Without a legitimate son, who will the ancestral property belong to in the future?
All concubines know about Chen Zhen's face-saving problem, let alone his brothers.
It's just that the second wife didn't expect that just once, the long room just happened to have a child, and the child might look like the Chen family again, and if she slandered her sister-in-law for stealing, the dirty water would be poured on her—unless it was stolen He's a man from the Chen family, otherwise he would be so similar - that's why he stopped.
I can't explain how stupid that child named Chen He is.
The woman even felt that Chen Zhen had figured this out after many years.
Otherwise, Chen Ji, the son Chen Zhen had managed to raise for so many years, why didn't the people in his hometown in Yunzhou get any news.
——The calculations were too clever, and the Chen family was completely burned down with a single fire.
Those who wanted to seize their ancestral property were turned into ashes, and those who were united in the same spirit were all alone.
The past has become a cloud of smoke, and now a silly child who was lost in the past comes out. Is this a blessing or a misfortune?In the scorching summer, Chen Xingniang's aunt broke out in a cold sweat.
The maids and mother-in-law thought it was the Zhong family's troubles, and they all hung their heads and dared not say a word.
Chen Zhen has been an official outside for many years, and when he seldom went back, the servants in the mansion only said that it was an old house when they mentioned Yunzhou. , the service of the servants was a little unsatisfactory, and she didn't beat and scold her name explicitly, but only secretly made troubles to toss others.
