Chapter 241 Passing away
On this day, Chu Jingqi did nothing, just like a pug, following Xia Zihan and sticking out his tongue to please her.
Xia Zihan ignored him and was entangled by him, so Xia Zihan went to Zeng's place.
But this guy was so shameless that he also went to Mrs. Zeng's place, pretending that he was going to pay his respects to Mrs. Zeng.
Mrs. Zeng was in a bad mood when she saw the dying little Mrs. Zeng yesterday. After Chu Jingqi finished paying her respects, she drove Xia Zihan and Chu Jingqi away. She prepared a carriage and went to the Song family to accompany Mrs. Zeng.
After all, she was her biological sister. Seeing that her biological sister was about to reach her end, Mrs. Zeng felt sad, so she wanted to go to the Song family to spend more time with her while little Mrs. Zeng could still speak.
It was not convenient for Xia Zihan to go to the Song family, so Zeng went alone.
Without her grandmother to serve as a shield, Xia Zihan returned to the yard and glared at Chu Jingqi.
This bastard could not be chased away, but he was not afraid of scolding. Even when she hit him twice in anger, he still said he was good.
Seeing him acting like a scoundrel, she felt as if there was a huge stone pressing on her heart.
Her eyes were red, and she asked her with helpless sobs, "Aqi, what on earth are you going to do? It's impossible for us, it's impossible. Don't mess with me, I won't be able to bear it."
Seeing her uncomfortable look, Chu Jingqi suddenly felt distressed, but he was unwilling to give up. He rushed over to hug her and whispered, "How do you know it's impossible if you don't give it a try? You hate me so much and don't want to marry me." ?”
She cried, "Okay, I'll tell you why I don't want to."
"I don't want to marry into a wealthy family, and I don't want to be troubled by everything. I don't want to compete with others overtly or covertly. Just for a title, my family will be destroyed, and I will live and die."
"The Chu family is a deep quagmire, and I don't want to fall into it."
"I don't want to share my husband with another woman. If that man pampers me with the body he has pampered other women, I will feel sick and vomiting just thinking about it, and think that man's body is dirty."
"Aqi, I don't like the life of a lady in a wealthy family. I just want to find a carefree and poor girl to marry her. Then my husband will only have me as my wife in his life, and we will have a few more children. , the family lives a peaceful and happy life. ”
"Whether you say I'm selfish or self-interested, I'm just a jealous woman. My small family is too narrow-minded to tolerate a husband with another woman. But in a wealthy family, which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines, and which family doesn't have this? Are you fighting for me? ”
"I'm timid, I don't dare, so don't tease me again, I will be afraid..."
She was afraid that as the day went on, she would fall deeply in love with him and fall deeply in love with him, and then she would willingly fall into a place of eternal destruction for him.
Chu Jingqi's identity will determine his future status and power, and he will also be surrounded by many women.
The wife who is destined to marry him will be trapped in internal battles throughout her life, and what she fears most is that she has to fight endlessly with a group of women for her husband.
He is obviously his man, but he does not have full rights to enjoy it. He has to watch his beloved husband accompany another woman day and night, and the wife cannot say a word about it.
There are two cases: a jealous woman commits the crime of seven outbursts.
Haha...
This is so unfair to the legitimate wife.
A woman loves her husband deeply, but the husband wants to stay with another woman. So, how can she not be jealous?
Unless the woman doesn't love her husband, she won't care if she doesn't.
But as long as there is love, how can we not feel jealous?
The deeper the love, the harder the pain will be.
Regarding Chu Jingqi, she had a vague premonition in her heart that once she fell in love with him, it would be a love that would be as strong as the earth and the earth would fall apart, and the alliance would last forever.
But when this love betrays her, what a painful and desolate life it will be, a life worse than death.
On those days, just thinking about it, she couldn't bear it.
Now, the reason why Chu Jingqi is so kind to her is because she once saved his life.
But what if Chu Jingqi grows up one day and falls in love with another woman?
She was afraid, she was very afraid.
In her previous life, after she was abandoned by Song Huai, she fell into the abyss of hell, unable to escape, and finally ended up dying without a burial place.
If...if she fell in love with Chu Jingqi in this life, and Chu Jingqi abandoned her again, then she...she might choose to die.
Because she couldn't bear the pain, and she didn't want to bear it.
She didn't want to be hurt in the future, so she couldn't be tempted now. She wanted to calm down and cut off all the black hair with Chu Jingqi.
So be it.
"Go back and don't come to me again. Also, if you have a good relationship with the prince, tell him to be careful about Concubine Lu and the queen. Be careful of poisoning. I... will stop here."
Suddenly, Xia Zihan staggered into the house feeling weak and limp, as if all his strength had been drained from his body.
The moment the door closed and the lights were turned off, tears couldn't help but fall, and her heart hurt as if a needle was stabbing her hard.
Haha...
She still thinks highly of herself. Still in love?
when?
Was it when he rescued her from the traffickers, or was it when he carried her for several hours back to the boat, or was it the moment when she shielded him from the knife, or was it when he held her desperately in the village. When we roll down the mountain together?
Or was it the moment when he smiled and stuffed a red envelope into her, telling her that was when he gave her lucky money?
When exactly?
Xia Zihan closed his eyes and his mind was confused.
Outside the house, it started to rain lightly. After a while, the light rain turned into heavy rain again. Chu Jingqi, who was standing in the rain, stood motionless like a wooden chicken. Suddenly, it was as if she had lost her entire soul. Nuan Yu, who was guarding the door of the room, couldn't bear to look at the sad expression.
In the room, Xia Zihan covered herself with a quilt and lay there all day long, not listening or listening. At noon, Nuanyu knocked on the door, but she ignored it.
Outside the house, there was heavy rain, violent wind and thunder, but Chu Jingqi stood motionless for several hours. It was not until night fell in the evening and the rain became lighter that he moved his stiff legs and took a sip. Broken lips.
"Ayu, as you wish."
After a long time, his eyes were full of sorrow and he felt lost. He softly uttered a few words, turned around and slowly walked out of Chu's house.
Xia Zihan heard it, and she stayed awake until Chu Jingqi left. She cried under the quilt.
Aqi, I'm sorry, please forgive my selfishness and cowardice.
……
The Song family became a joke in the capital.
Shi Wenting paid half-way tribute to Dai Yumin, but was ignored by her husband on their wedding night, which became a joke among people in the capital.
Fortunately, Song Huai helped Shi Wenting and coaxed her, so Shi Wenting didn't cause any trouble.
On the third day of their wedding, they went to the Shi family together. Shi Hanlin scolded Song Huai for not neglecting Shi Wenting on the wedding night. The people below also spread the word and lost the Song family and The face of the Shi family.
Shi Wenting, on the other hand, acted like a protector and said a lot of good things to Song Huai, so Shi Hanlin did not continue to reprimand him.
However, when they returned to the Song family, little Zeng had just died.
Having just finished a happy event, they have to do a white one again. The Song family has stretched its manpower, material and financial resources to the limit.
Especially after the little Zeng family's dowry was sold by Song Baiqing, the Song family's meager property could not support the Song family's huge expenses.
Pei had no choice but to sell her dowry.
Anyway, most of her dowry belongs to Song Huai. Besides, the Song family is at the end of its rope. Where can she find money without her dowry?
She can't be allowed to ask her daughter-in-law, who has only been married for three days, for money from her luggage.
In one afternoon, the Song family replaced the red lanterns with white lanterns, and the red lanterns turned into white sand, which hung all over the Song family.
The coffin, mourning clothes, hemp ropes, birthday clothes, etc. were all ready in an hour.
The mourning hall was quickly decorated.
We invited eminent monks to calculate the auspicious time. At nine o'clock that night, Song Boqing and Song Huai, their father and son, bought water and put little Zeng's body into the coffin. Early the next morning, little Zeng passed away. The news spread out.
And this day happens to be August 15th, the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Reunion Festival.
In the capital, some families who had contact with the Song family on weekdays sent people to pay homage to the little Zeng family.
For a time, the Song family became lively again.
Only this time it was a white matter, a joy with sadness.
The Zeng family, the natal family of the young Zeng family, moved their family to the southwest in their early years. It was nearly two months away from the capital, and it took more than four months to get back and forth.
Despite this, Song Baiqing still wrote a letter and sent someone to send it to his maternal grandfather's home in the southwest.
Song Baiqing returned to the Song family three days before Song Huai got married. He had been hanging out with Mudan for more than half a month. After returning home, he took the initiative to go to the little Zeng family to admit his mistake and apologize, and knelt down in front of the little Zeng family to ask for forgiveness.
But until his death, Xiao Zeng did not forgive him.
Little Zeng died, and the old man of the Song family couldn't afford to fall ill. Song Baiqing suddenly seemed to have aged ten years, with a look of regret on his face that he had sold little Zeng's dowry.
But thinking about the charming peony, he felt it was worth it.
Thinking of Peony, he felt that he was right. Such a delicate and soft beauty was definitely worth fifty thousand taels of silver.
As for Xiao Zeng's death, he blamed Song Huai and the Chu family, thinking that it was Song Huai who provoked Feng Liu's debt and caused the Chu family to break off the engagement, and that was why Xiao Zeng was angry to death.
If the Chu family had not broken off the engagement, maybe his mother would not have died.
Even if his mother's dowry was sold by him, as long as the Chu family did not break off the engagement and the Song family stayed tight for the past three years, after Chu Yu married into the Song family, Chu Yu's dowry would definitely make the Song family happy. Resurrection from the dead.
But now that his mother is dead, the Chu family has broken off the engagement, and Song Huai has married Shi Wenting, who doesn't have much of a dowry, he thinks about it and feels that the deal is a loss.
