Qingming.
Sui Feng Garden.
Ruan Yunluo stood in front of the window, looking at the bright moonlight in the sky, and couldn't help but think of his mother who died in childbirth, and he was filled with emotions.
It would have been better if her mother had not passed away. In this case, her father would not have remarried, and she would not have a stepmother with a kind face and a cold heart...
If it hadn't been for the stepmother's push, she wouldn't have panicked and married Xiao Chongjing in a hurry...
"well……"
Ruan Yunluo sighed, feeling depressed.
She had never wanted to think about everything about the Ruan family, but today because of the Qingming Festival, she actually became sentimental...
"Madam, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Ruan Yunluo in a bad mood, Nanny Wan was very worried.
After thinking about it, she tentatively suggested, "Madam, please put on your conical hat and let's go to the garden to relax."
"good."
Ruan Yunluo nodded.
She took the conical hat delivered by Tian Shuangshuang's quick hands and said with a smile: "You and your sister Fu can keep it to look after the house. Your mother and I will go out for a stroll and be back soon."
"Don't worry, ma'am."
Knowing that Ruan Yunluo was in a bad mood, Tian Shuangshuang was very sensible and did not interfere.
Watching Ruan Yunluo and Nanny Wan leave towards the garden, she stood on tiptoes and put her hands on Wan Qifu's shoulders, saying with a sad look on her face: "Hey, Sister Fu, tell me, madam, what's wrong?"
"Maybe, I miss home."
in the garden.
When they saw the fire behind the rockery, Ruan Yunluo and Nanny Wan almost thought the garden was on fire.
But just when Nanny Wan was about to shout "It's gone", Ruan Yunluo shook her head to stop her.
Because she suddenly remembered that she had experienced this scene in her previous life.
In my previous life, during Qingming Festival, I went out to the garden feeling depressed, and saw the light of fire...
At that time, she and Grandma Wan were startled and shouted loudly that the water was gone. Mrs. Xi and Grandma Fan walked out from behind the rockery with sullen faces and stopped them.
The expression... seems a little panicked...
Recalling the scene at that time, Ruan Yunluo hurriedly waved his hand to signal Nanny Wan not to make any sound.
Then he stepped forward lightly and hid behind the rockery.
Looking out from behind the rockery, she found that Mrs. Xi and Grandma Fan were burning paper money together.
While burning, he drew circles on the ground and muttered, "Chongjing, Mom is sorry for you... Mom didn't mean to make you a lonely ghost, and there's nothing I can do about it..."
Repeat scene?
A lonely ghost?
Hearing Xiao Chongjing's name and the words "lonely soul and wild ghost" appear at the same time, Ruan Yunluo was shocked and almost screamed.
She hurriedly covered her mouth, not daring to stay for a moment. He carefully walked out of the garden, immediately pulled the confused Nanny Wan and left without looking back...
After returning to Suifeng Garden and calming down, Ruan Yunluo quickly understood that the living person in Yaochun Garden was an impostor. The real Xiao Chongjing should have been dead long ago.
No wonder……
Ruan Yunluo suddenly realized it, and the doubts in his heart that had been puzzling were instantly cleared up.
She finally understood that she was kidnapped and poisoned, not because of anything else, but because Xiao Chongjing was a fake, just because she broke Mrs. Xi's burning paper...
She finally understood why she had given so much to the Xiao family, Mrs. Xi, and the Xiao Qinyu brothers but could not get any gratitude at all.
Because in the eyes of Mrs. Xi, she is not a family member at all, not a daughter-in-law, just a fake wife and a tool...
Ah.
Thinking that he had been played with for so many years, Ruan Yunluo felt both regretful and grateful.
I regret that in my previous life, I was full of obedience and virtue, and regarded evil people as family members. I was stupid and didn't realize it.
Fortunately, God gave her a chance to live her life again, so that she could wash away her shame and take revenge!
Holding the tea cup tightly, Ruan Yunluo secretly made up his mind.
Everything she owed her in her previous life, she will pay them back a thousand times in this life!
The next day.
Qingshou Garden.
Facing the gloomy-faced Mrs. Xi, Ruan Yunluo seemed unable to understand her expression and smiled and asked again to take a concubine for Xiao Chongjing.
"What kind of concubine do you want!"
Mrs. Xi scolded angrily, "At this time, do you still have the heart to keep a concubine for him?! You should first think about what to do about dismissal!"
"The matter of dismissal cannot be rushed, but concubinage is imminent."
Ruan Yunluo was indifferent and said with a virtuous expression: "Mom, you also know that I am not in good health and cannot carry on the Xiao family's lineage. Aunt Yin is pregnant, but who knows whether there is a boy or girl in her belly? It's better to Accept a few more at once. When there are more children, won’t the Xiao family have an heir? "
"What queen!"
Mrs. Xi was angry.
One of his biological sons died in infancy and the whereabouts are unknown, but the impostor's house was filled with people one after another. How could this be justified?
Especially when she was still feeling sad about the Tomb Sweeping Day yesterday, and now she heard Ruan Yunluo mention concubinage, it was like stabbing a knife into her heart!
But as a nominal mother, she couldn't openly stop Xiao Chongjing from spreading his business, so she could only use Jun Yiguang as a shield, "Your Majesty dismissed him from his post to make him reflect on his mistakes, not to let him enjoy concubinage." ! If you take a concubine for him now, aren't you deliberately going against the emperor?"
"But General, it's even more outrageous that he hangs around the land of fireworks all day long."
Ruan Yunluo argued with Mrs. Xi with a worried look on his face, "Besides, even if Chongjing is not a general now, he is still a descendant of the old general and the patriarch of the Xiao family. With his status, how many concubines he has, how many more concubines he has. A child, isn’t that normal?
It’s not like he can’t give birth…”
As she spoke, she reminded her specifically, "Mom, Chongjing is getting older. It's only a matter of time before he takes a concubine and gives birth to a child. Moreover, with his status, it's absolutely impossible for him to have only one child.
He has to have several more children before he can select the most suitable offspring to take over the General's Mansion and the Xiao family.
That’s why the General’s Mansion will always have the surname Xiao…”
"enough!"
Mrs. Xi's eyebrows were beating wildly and her heart was pounding.
Thinking of Xiao Chongjing's descendants, her heart felt even more painful than a knife.
The reason why she tolerated Xiao Chongjing for so many years was because she liked the fake's fighting ability and wanted him to gain more military exploits so that she could promote Qin Yu.
Anyway, as long as the counterfeit has no children, everything he conquers will belong to Qin Yu sooner or later.
However, Ruan Yunluo actually wanted to take a concubine for that impostor!
Not only did she take a concubine, she also wanted the descendants of the impostor to take over the general's mansion and take over the Xiao family...
Oh, it is really a big joke that the dove occupies the magpie's nest and slips into the world!
Forcibly suppressing the anger in her heart, she looked at Ruan Yunluo coldly and said perfunctorily: "This matter cannot be rushed. You should pay attention first and wait until there is a suitable person in the future."
"yes."
Seeing that the oil was almost poured, Ruan Yunluo smiled and stood up to say goodbye.
When she walked away, Nanny Fan looked at her master anxiously, "Old madam, what should I do? Do you really want to agree to take a concubine for him?"
"What's the use if I don't agree?"
Mrs. Xi closed her eyes and sighed.
She understood that Ruan Yunluo was actually right.
The vast majority of men will not allow themselves to be childless as long as they can have children.
Xiao Chongjing is no exception.
Yin Xiaorou is pregnant now, so he is not in a hurry.
When Yin Xiaorou and her child die in a few months, Xiao Chongjing will definitely accept her again.
well……
Mrs. Xi sighed.
There are so many women in the world. If she poisons them one by one, how long will it last?
It would be great if there was another piece of jade. I could just put it on that fake person and I would be able to sit back and relax...
Thinking of this, Mrs. Xi was shocked and suddenly looked at Aunt Fan——
"Quick, ask Xu Keyuan if there is any medicine that can sterilize men..."
