When Mrs. Fan woke up, she did not sit up immediately. Instead, she felt it on the bed for a long time with her eyes open. She had not experienced that kind of immersive sleep for a long time.
After that, he slowly turned his head and saw Gu Qingjue and Su Yixin sitting in the room.
Mrs. Fan didn't have any panic and stood up calmly. She didn't take off her clothes yesterday, and now she just put on her robe from the screen on the side.
"Why did you come to see me?"
Fan was surprisingly calm.
Su Yixin did not mince words: "Madam, my name is Su Yixin and I am a friend of Wuyun, Liu family..."
When Su Yixin introduced the situation of the Liu family, Gu Qingjue had been observing Fan's expression. Fan did not have any emotional fluctuations when he heard that Liu Wushuang had been bewitched.
From Fan's memory, we learned that Chu was her only child.
Liu Wushuang and Liu Wuyun were also her only grandchildren, so how could they be so calm.
Thinking of Fan's experience in the Chu family.
Su Yixin seemed to understand Fan's difficulties.
The Chu family was also very prosperous in the ancestors' time. Chu Youzhi was the Chu family's grandfather. Because of the ancestral property saved by his ancestors, starting from Chu Youzhi's father, he was uneducated and greedy for money and lust. After giving birth to Chu Youzhi, , it didn’t take long for her to be drained by wine and sex, and she could no longer have children.
Therefore, Chu Youzhi had no other brothers, he was the only one.
Chu Youzhi's great-grandfather was grieving for his son who died young, and decided to raise his grandson well. However, he did not expect that his grandson would not inherit anything else, and he was not a bit greedy for money and lust.
The family fortune accumulated by several generations of the Chu family was completely destroyed.
It was his great-grandfather who sacrificed his face and found a good match for Chu Youzhi, with Fan Yanfang.
Fan Yanfang not only came from a scholarly family, but her family was also very wealthy. She taught her daughter to be virtuous and virtuous, and she believed in her heart that her husband was her destiny.
Married into the Chu family with beautiful vision.
Unexpectedly, the Chu family had lost money and only had this three-in-one courtyard. In the end, the dignified Chu family had to use Fan's dowry to support the family.
Forget it, even if Chu Youzhi took a concubine, Fan would have to pay for it.
Fan Shi has endured all this.
Just because the education she received is that no matter what her husband's family is, she can't divorce her, let alone be divorced.
If there wasn't a grandfather who was suppressing her, Fan Yanfang's life in the Chu family would have been even worse.
Chu Zuojin also knew that it was his own selfishness that made his granddaughter-in-law live a lonely life, but everyone has selfish motives. He just hoped that this virtuous and virtuous granddaughter-in-law would give birth to a baby boy, and that he could cultivate him well during his lifetime.
With Chu Zuojun pressing down on him, Chu Youzhi couldn't do too much.
In the third year after marrying into the Chu family, Fan finally got pregnant. Chu Youzhi said that he would take Fan out of the city to go to the temple to offer incense and fulfill her vows. Unexpectedly, on the way back to the city, the horse was frightened and was accidentally hit by the head of the Liu family at that time. Rescued by his father Liu Kewen.
Fan was heartbroken by Chu Youzhi at that time, but due to the pressure from her parents' family, she couldn't reconcile.
Under this kind of mental pressure, meeting Liu Kewen made Fan's originally calm heart gradually become more active.
I also have a few more expectations for the child in my belly.
Of course Chu Youzhi didn't know this.
All Chu Youzhi's thoughts were on the sexual affairs in the back house, and he spent all day and night.
Fan was pregnant with her child, so she didn't care.
After ten months, Fan had a difficult delivery after giving birth to Chu, and was too injured to be pregnant again.
Chu Youzhi was even more disgusted with the mediocre Fan.
But because she was rich, he couldn't just divorce her, so he just treated this real wife as a decoration.
Chu Zuojin was full of expectations for the child in Fan's belly, but it was a girl.
Feeling disappointed in her heart, she thought about keeping her position as mistress and letting another woman give birth to a boy, and then she would be placed next to Fan to teach her.
He tacitly allowed Chu Youzhi to hang out in the backyard all day.
It's a pity that Chu Youzhi has no other children besides Chu.
When the Chu family was ten years old, Chu Zuojin passed away!
Chu Youzhi became more and more dissolute, hitting and scolding Fan.
Mrs. Fan swallowed her anger and raised Mrs. Chu.
It was another year of incense, and she unexpectedly met her savior again. At that time, he took his son Liu Shouqing to Yangzhou. The two children were about the same age. Fan didn't want her daughter to be sold to others like Chu Youzhi as goods in the future. , he took the initiative to say that he would repay Liu Kewen for saving his life and let his daughter be Liu Shouqing's concubine.
Yes, be a concubine.
But Liu Kewen was quite fond of the Chu family at that time.
Liu Shouqing also fell in love with Chu at first sight.
So he decided to hire him as his wife.
Chu Youzhi knew that when the Chu family wanted to marry Liu's eldest son, he originally didn't agree.
But knowing that Liu Kewen was an official from the capital and would return to the capital as a high official in a few years, he happily agreed.
When Mrs. Chu was about to get married, Chu Youzhi treated Fan pretty well.
After the Chu family got married, Liu Kewen returned to Kyoto not long after and became the governor of Kaifeng.
The years when Liu Kewen was an official were the most comfortable time Fan had ever lived in the Chu family.
On this day, after Liu Shouqing also successfully passed the imperial examination and obtained a position in the court with the title of Privy Councilor, Fan reached his peak moment in the Chu family.
In those years, Chu Youzhi favored only the Fan family.
Even though Mrs. Fan was injured and unable to regenerate, she never showed any shame.
On days like this, when Liu Kewen died of illness and Liu Shouqing suddenly resigned from his post in the DPRK and returned to Yuyuan Town for unknown reasons, he was completely disillusioned.
Fan has experienced ups and downs.
He already had a strong hatred for Chu Youzhi.
From the beginning when she married Chu Youzhi, she wanted to reconcile, to the end she wanted Chu Youzhi to live worse than death.
These are Fan's memories.
But with the Liu family, except for a few years ago when Liu Kewen was still alive, the Chu family and Liu Shouqing returned to the Chu family several times, and there was no memory of the Chu family afterwards.
Su Yixin believes that the Fan family has nothing to do with the Liu family.
But at this moment, Gu Qingjue suddenly asked: "Madam, Liu Kewen died of illness that year, do you know the reason?"
Fan twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Although he and I are related to each other, they have always lived in Kyoto. When announcing his funeral, they only said that he died of illness."
"You didn't ask what the disease was?"
Fan raised his eyes and looked at Gu Qingjue: "What do you mean?"
"I just feel that he is your savior, not an ordinary in-law. If your benefactor dies due to illness, you will definitely care about it."
Mrs. Fan pulled her lips and smiled: "Didn't I ask my daughter to repay this kindness for saving my life? I gave birth to a pair of twins for the Liu family. This kindness has been repaid long ago."
"Do you hate Liu Kewen?"
Fan looked at Gu Qingjue faintly, then stood up and turned her back to them: "Since you let me have a good sleep, I will not pursue the matter of trespassing on the Chu family. Now please leave quickly. I Just pretend that you have never been to the Chu family."
