Although Li Hong of the Li family was frail and sickly, he had been ill since he was a child, and the doctor didn't say that he would be short-lived.
There is a person like this here, who was sick since birth. Now he is in his forties and is still alive and well. Everyone thinks that Li Hong should be that kind of person.
Unexpectedly, she died suddenly six years ago. The Li family's parents suspected that the death was caused by their daughter-in-law and an adulterer. After all, she was rumored to have a bad behavior and often had connections with others.
Although he was not caught in bed, there were a lot of rumors, and they were not necessarily groundless, so he reported it to the police. There was a big fuss at that time, and everyone in the whole street knew about it.
The government official went to check Li Hong's body, but found no external injuries or poisoning, but it was not normal for a good man to die suddenly.
Then it was rumored that Li Hong saw his wife having an affair with someone and was furious to death.
At that time, the Li family wanted to kick Widow Cui out directly, but Widow Cui's mother-in-law refused and went to the Li family to cause a scene.
The Cui family is also from this street. They have a makeup shop. When the two families got married, the Li family also took a fancy to this. Otherwise, the Cui family would not be an honest woman in her boudoir, and she would almost marry a businessman from the south. She ran away. If she hadn't brought her dowry, one of which was the skill of making makeup, she wouldn't have been able to get married. "
Qingyan interrupted her subconsciously, "That's not right. Isn't this kind of craftsmanship passed down from male to female? How could it be passed on to her and be taken away as a dowry?"
Zhang Qiaoling said with a smile: "It is said that this is the case. It was not her mother who gave birth to her as a daughter. She has been good-looking and good at coaxing people since she was a child. Her father has liked her since she was a child, and she also grew up holding her in his hands. Later, although he took a concubine and gave birth to a son, he was still a concubine.
Although we ordinary people like us are not so strict with each other, it is still different.
Back then, the Cui family's dowry was one of the best in our area. Not only did they bring money, but they also brought such cooking skills, which is why they were so arrogant in my husband's family.
If the Li family wants to drive away the family, their natal family will definitely not do it, and there is no evidence to prove that she killed the person, so the Cui family said that if they wanted to drive away their daughter, they would take the dowry with them. Go back and take the shop that was opened later.
After Widow Cui got married, she opened a cosmetics shop. It can be said that Widow Cui was responsible for running the shop all by herself. Her husband was so weak that he didn't even stretch out his hand.
This made the Li family a little angry. At this time, it happened that they found out that she was more than a month pregnant. Li Hong's parents thought that no matter whether it was a boy or a girl, they would give their son a queen, that is. Endured it.
It was okay at first, and a boy was born right away, but as he grew older, he looked more and more like Chen Jiawang. By last year, the child was four years old. Anyone who saw him would say that they were father and son. of.
So the quarrel started again. The Li family claimed that they had raised a bastard for many years. They said they wanted the Chen family to pay for the upbringing of the child for so many years. They also wanted to divorce Widow Cui and the dowry would not be returned, because this was living proof. There it is.
This matter has been going on for two years, but Chen Jiawang has his first wife, and Cui is definitely not willing to come over to be a concubine.
The Chen family must have taken a fancy to Widow Cui's craftsmanship. Craftsmanship is worth money. When the time comes, they can rent a shop on this street and open it to make money.
This makes me look down on Sister Xue’s embroidery skills. After all, for more than ten years, Sister Xue’s eyes have been so tired from embroidering day and night that she can no longer see clearly. There is no way to embroider large items, and small items can only be sold. More than ten pennies.
Chen Jiawang and Mrs. Chen are just thinking of ways to torment Sister Xue. If nothing happens, they will drink some wine and come back to beat their wife. Last time, they broke Sister Xue's arm and she couldn't pick up the needle and thread.
Old Mrs. Chen wanted to divorce Sister Xue on the grounds that she did not serve her husband and disrespected her mother-in-law. However, the head of the Chen family did not agree. Everyone knew what was going on. If this reputation spread, the Chen family would not even think about it. I’ve got a good wife again…”
Qingyan said in her heart, you are still far away. If you were close to the Chen family, you would know that your Sister Xue would be better off being divorced.
From this point of view, the head of the Chen family is not saving her, he is harming her. If Chen Jiawang is not allowed to divorce his wife, he will just prepare to lose his wife without stopping.
Qingyan listened quietly to Zhang Qiaoling's narration and told her about the affairs of the Chen family's Wang family. The general content was not much different from what the two sisters-in-law said.
Qingyan frowned and said: "From what my sister-in-law said, my clan sister has not had a good life in his house for a few days. It seems like they have other ideas. It seems that I have to come to the door quickly." Check it out.
Sister-in-law, can you tell me which courtyard his house is in? I'd better go and have a look. "
Zhang Qiaoling was overjoyed at first, and then said with some hesitation: "You are the only woman who comes directly to the door, so I'm afraid I can't help you much. If Chen Jiawang drinks and goes crazy, I'm afraid it will hurt you.
Moreover, what you said before is probably not easy to deal with Sister Xue and Li. The Chen family is not a good person and will not agree.
Let me tell you this, as for Chen Jiawang's father, if his son hadn't been ignorant and unskilled and couldn't marry a wife, he might not have been able to save Sister Xue back then. Maybe it was just because of Sister Xue's good looks and good looks. I want to go to Xue's house to get some money. "
Qingyan was stunned. She thought that Chen Jiawang's father was a good person, but he just gave birth to such an inhuman son. It turned out that she was wrong. The old man was not a good guy either.
Thinking about it, if he was really that kind of good old man, he wouldn't be able to act as a escort in such a dangerous world, and he wouldn't be able to give birth to such a son. Family education is still more important.
I just don’t know what kind of character the two children born to Xue Minghua are like. Through Chou Chou’s description before, the two children were hiding outside the door at first. When they heard their father beating their mother, they didn’t stop them loudly, even if they went to It would be better to ask the neighbors to help stop it.
However, after all, they are two children, so they can't be too demanding. Maybe they have been raised in this environment for a long time and their personalities may have become like this.
At least they could step on the wound while the old lady was unconscious and avenge their mother.
Of course, it might be to avenge themselves, or the old woman might not be treating them well.
Moreover, they are a bit bullying and afraid of the strong, so why not step on their father?
Qingyan also hesitated a little. Was she a little impulsive? Let’s not talk about Xue Minghua first, are these two children worth her saving?
Maybe people didn't think she was there to save them, and they might even think she was out to break up their family...
