"At the beginning, how could you be so heartless? Didn't you even want to help your sister realize her last wish? Have you forgotten how much your sister loved you when you were a child? You were raised by her, how can you be ungrateful? ? Now that she has left her two young children behind, you should marry and help your sister raise these two poor children, just like she raised you when you were a child..." A nagging voice came to Shichu's ears There was a loud voice on the side and kept talking, which made Shichu very irritated.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Ms. Cao Liu's eyes were red and she was looking at her with a look of disappointment and confusion. It was obvious that she was the one who was speaking just now.
"Why don't you say anything? Are you still unwilling to marry your brother-in-law as a second wife? What's wrong with your brother-in-law? He became a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy at a young age. He is a talented person and is a favorite in the family. Family, you will definitely not be wronged when you marry me, why are you still in trouble?" Mrs. Cao Liu continued to work hard to persuade Shi Chu.
Shi Chu could tell what she meant just from her words. It turned out that she was persuading the original owner to marry her brother-in-law and help her dead sister take over and raise the children.
She immediately felt a nauseous feeling in her heart, and wanted to throw the woman in front of her out, but before she fully understood the situation, she couldn't do that, so she had to endure the nausea in her heart and said: "This matter is related to Throughout my life, I have made decisions easily that require careful consideration by a person.”
When Mrs. Cao Liu heard this, she thought she was finally moved by her words, so she quickly said: "Okay, mother, go out now, you can think about it carefully in the room, mother, wait for you to figure it out..."
She said as she walked out of the room.
Only then did he begin to receive the memory of the original owner.
The original owner was Cao Shichu, the legitimate daughter of Honglu Temple Shaoqing Cao Yi. She was only sixteen years old this year. Two days ago, her eldest sister Cao Shuhui, who was ten years older than her, passed away due to dystocia. Before she left, she was worried for two days. She was afraid that the wife her husband Xun Xiu would marry would be bad for her children, so she specifically asked the original owner to marry Xun Xiu and raise her two children on her behalf.
So the original owner, who originally had unlimited expectations and longings for her future marriage and husband, was suddenly told by her family that she would marry her brother-in-law as a continuation partner. This was no less than a bolt from the blue for her, because she had no reverie about her brother-in-law and had never had any thoughts about her. She treated him as an elder, but because of her sister's death, she suddenly wanted to marry a man she regarded as an elder. This shocked and stunned her, and she felt very embarrassed, so she was unwilling at all.
However, the original owner's parents did not want to lose Xun Xiu, a good son-in-law, so they forced the original owner to marry and used the pity of her two nephews to win her sympathy. Cao's mother kept saying how good Cao Shuhui was to the original owner and how much she loved her when she was a child. She came to make the original owner feel guilty, and then found several examples of the stepmother mistreating her stepchildren to persuade the original owner. In this two-pronged approach, she used morals to kidnap the original owner to marry her brother-in-law.
The original owner endured her inner reluctance and got married because she cared about her eldest sister's so-called "love" for her. She was indeed very good to her nephews and nieces, treating them as her own children, caring about their lives and teaching them. scholarship.
When the original owner raised her niece and stepdaughter, who had lost her mother at birth, to the age of five, she finally became pregnant and had her own child, for which she was quite looking forward to it.
But unfortunately, when she was five months pregnant, she accidentally fell while walking in the garden and the child was miscarried. She was also injured and could no longer have children.
Although the original owner was grieving, he gradually became relieved because he had a niece and nephew whom he regarded as his own. He devoted his whole body and soul to them, caring and loving them wholeheartedly.
But when my niece Xun Linyuan grew up to fifteen years old, she started to fall in love, but she fell in love with an ignorant gangster who pretended to be a poor student. She was so fascinated that she even used her private money to support him and support him in his studies and imperial examinations. He dreamed that he would come to marry his sweetheart when she was named in the gold medal list.
Xun Linyuan's abnormality was discovered by the original owner who always loved her. The original owner was shocked and asked someone to investigate the gangster. It turned out that he was a liar, so he found an opportunity to tell Xun Linyuan.
Unexpectedly, Xun Linyuan did not believe the original owner at all, and pulled the original owner to confront the gangster. The original owner provided evidence to prove that the gangster was indeed a liar. At this time, Xun Xiu encountered three people having fun in the house. The original owner was about to explain and wanted to Xun Xiu gets rid of the gangsters and solves the trouble for Xun Linyuan.
But she didn't expect that when Xun Linyuan saw her biological father, her mind that was muddled by feelings suddenly became clear, and she believed the evidence presented by the original owner. However, she could not admit that she had done something wrong in this matter, and she did not want to lose her reputation. , did not want to be misunderstood by her biological father, so she "had an idea" and immediately accused the original owner of finding a gangster to enter the house to tarnish her innocence.
The original owner never expected that her stepdaughter and niece, who she had brought up since childhood and regarded as her own, would actually confuse right and wrong and frame herself in order to escape the crime. She tried her best to defend herself, saying that she did not find this gangster, but deceived Xun Linyuan. fraud.
But Xun Xiu didn't believe her at all, and Xun Linyuan was also eloquent, slandering the original owner because she hated her for plotting with her brother when she was a child to cause her to have a miscarriage and never have children again, so she found a gangster to destroy her.
The original owner had just been slandered by the children he loved since childhood, and suddenly heard that his miscarriage was caused by two children. He was immediately shocked and collapsed.
When Xun Xiu faced his stepwife and biological daughter who had no feelings for him, he naturally chose to side with his biological daughter, not to mention that the reasons given by his daughter were so sufficient.
So Xun Xiu scolded the original owner for being a snake-hearted person, and said that the child was not sensible before and that it was not intentional to cause her miscarriage. However, she had held a grudge for so long and had evil thoughts. She was not worthy of being the mistress of the Xun family.
But considering that she has taken care of two children for more than ten years, and there is no merit but hard work, she can not abandon her, but she has to accept the punishment, go to the family temple to atone for her sins, be grounded for a lifetime, and will not be able to come out in the future.
In this way, the original owner was sent to the family temple for custody. Because he was a "mistaken" person, he naturally had a bad end. He did not have enough to eat or wear, and he had to work hard in addition to being hungry.
The original owner had suffered in the temple for several years, but in the past few years, her beloved Xun Xiu and Xun Linyuan had never appeared once, let alone visited her.
When she was dying, she realized that from beginning to end, the Xun family never regarded her as a family member, but only as a tool to take care of their children. And the two children she loved with all her heart never regarded her as a human being. Mother, I have no feelings for her.
Her whole life became a joke, and she finally died with eyes closed and hatred.
