37. Soul Break: Overnight Rain
Li Moxin looked at the couple of men and women on the ground, and was very anxious, and asked Meng Po unwillingly, "What if there are exceptions?" β
"This is not necessarily, most of the people who do Chenghuang are old, and they have nothing to worry about when they are old, and it is indeed rare to be as young as him, and it is not necessarily that they have really been replaced with a fake memory."
If she was like her, she made a mistake in the heavens and was punished to the lower realm, and it was possible that her memory was tampered with, but she didn't say this to Li Moxin. This girl has been very interested in her past recently, and she tried to inquire about her, and she was more interested in her than Ye Zhen.
Hearing this, the man couldn't help but glance at Meng Po, and asked the girl instead, "You said that I met you in a dream, how did you meet?" β
Hearing this, the woman looked up at him, "Do you really want to know?" β
"To tell you the truth, I was also lonely in my life, if I was really loved so passionately, I will continue to be with you with all my merits for more than 70 years."
"Yan Jun is not bad at talking, if you two really have this kind of fate, he will not beat the mandarin duck, and then everyone will beg for mercy, either let the city god re-enter the reincarnation, or you don't have to be reincarnated, left and right is just a trivial matter." Meng Po said in a harmonious voice.
Hearing this, the woman's mood finally stabilized a lot, and she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Actually, before my death, my reunion with him was also a ridiculous thing. β
"How?" Chenghuang asked, puzzled.
The woman sighed, glanced at Chenghuang, and thought about it before slowly speaking: "My name in this life is Rao Anran, my father was a high-ranking official of the country, and then he was framed in the middle of the family, I was almost sold by my family, my fiancΓ© Mu Chenhui ransomed me back and sent me back to Jiangzhou to relive, and I was able to reunite with you." β
"Ling Zun's name is Rao Chengwen?" Li Moxin asked with a frown.
Rao Anran frowned and nodded. "Where did the girl know?"
"...... the other day"
"A few days ago, a friend of his passed by Meng Pozhuang and told me about his friend who died in vain, presumably Lord Lingzun." Meng Po snatched the words.
The girl is already miserable enough, so why should she tell the truth to increase her sadness?
Rao Anran didn't doubt him, oh, and sighed: "My father died tragically, and I met my fiancΓ© who changed his mind, and finally died of depression. But it's all over, and being able to meet the scenery and the past is considered to be an experience. β
"What happened?" Chenghuang asked with a frown.
Rao Anran looked at him and smiled bitterly: "That has to start with a bad fate in my life." β
She thought for a while before she slowly spoke: "After my father passed away, my mother sold me to someone else, and my fiancΓ© Mu Chenhui ransomed me back and raised me in Jiangzhou. β
β¦β¦
Since Rao Chengwen was imprisoned, Rao Anran has been looking around to ask his former friends to speak for his father in the court. As the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, but when the tree falls, the monkeys will naturally disperse, who will think of helping? Those so-called good friends in the past were the fastest and cleanest. And the aunts in the family proposed to split up on the night Rao Chengwen was arrested. Rao Anran stood up and strongly objected, but he barely pressed it down. But the family is in ruins, how can she be suppressed by a girl who has not been out of the cabinet?
On this day, when she came back from outside, she saw the servants of the family running out in a hurry with a salute, she couldn't stop people, so she went straight to her mother's room, and heard her mother say outside the door: "This is the case, the master thought that we didn't have the ability to give birth to a son, and he wanted to leave us and make room for others, and now the disaster is coming, and he can't blame us." β
"Madame is right, now you are in charge of the house, and I will listen to what you say."
"The dowry of the things in their respective rooms is all their own when they are sold, and as for the other things, I don't bother to judge justice if I don't divide them, so I sell them all, I take four, and you take six ......."
Hearing this, Rao Anran couldn't hold back any longer, walked into the house and looked at his mother-in-law and said angrily: "What is my mother going to do?" β
The Chen family didn't have any scruples when he saw Rao Anran, and said bluntly: "Your father has gone in, we also have to find a way to survive, don't all die and tell others that there is no one in the Rao family." β
"Are you what a housewife should say?"
Hearing this, Chen sneered, "Housewife? Go and ask your father in prison when he took me as his wife. I'm just brought in to fill the house after your mother died, and I still carry the infamy of not being able to give birth to a son every day, and I don't even look at your fifth sister, he doesn't care about my thoughts, take one today and one tomorrow, does he have me as a wife in his eyes? β
Speaking of this, the Chen family was also angry, and the people on the side were busy persuading her not to be angry, and the woman in a light purple dress persuaded the Chen family while saying to Rao Anran: "Third girl, you are a married person, and you don't have to worry about your livelihood in the future, but these girls under your feet still have their mouths open to eat." In this matter, we are also helpless. β
"You ...... You ......" Rao Anran was trembling with anger, pointing at everyone and scolding, "It's a shame that you are so eager like a slave on weekdays, but I didn't expect it to be such a vicious heart!" You can go, and you are not allowed to touch anything except your own dowry! β
"Smack-" When Chen heard this, he slapped the case and said angrily, "This family is now my decision, and it's not your turn to teach a yellow-haired girl here!" If you're going to get married, don't worry about my family! Chunxiu, please let the three girls out! β
Rao Anran was kicked out by the Chen family, and she was so angry that she stomped her feet, but she couldn't think of anything for a while, and the maid reminded her to find Mu Chenhui, so she hurried to Mu's house.
Rao Anran's mother and Mu Chenhui's mother have a general relationship, the two of them have been married to a baby since they were young, but fortunately they get along well when they grow up, Mu Chenhui is afraid of Rao Anran in his mouth, and he is afraid of falling in his hand.
She hurried to Mu's house, and was told by the housekeeper that Mu Chenhui was sent to Shunzhou to lead troops and would not come back for a while. Hearing this, she frowned, "What about Shibo?" Is Sebo at home? β
"My lord went to the court early in the morning, and I don't know when I will come back."
"Auntie is not at home either?"
"Madame went to Ci'an Temple yesterday to offer incense, and it is estimated that she will have to stay for a few days before coming back."
As for this, Rao Anran suddenly understood a little, couldn't help sneering, and turned to leave.
"Miss Rao, if the adults come back, I'll send someone to tell you." Menzi shouted at her back.
"No need." She said with a calm face.
Rao Anran returned home, several aunts were busy selling the things in the sale, and when they saw her coming back, their faces were a little uncomfortable, but they didn't delay bargaining. She felt a wave of fatigue that she had never felt before, and she could barely stand. The maid Luping hurriedly helped her sit down.
Chen sat in the main hall and watched her come back coldly, "The third girl is looking for a helper?" β
Rao Anran turned his eyes to look at her, "You already knew?" β
Chen looked innocent and smiled: "What do I know? It's just that people take tea and cool, and everyone knows this truth. β
"It's because of the existence of people like you that some people take the phrase "tea cool!" Rao Anran gritted his teeth and said.
Chen didn't care what she said about herself, patted her skirt and got up, "I will clean up your mother's dowry for you and put it in your room, you will do it yourself in the future." β
"My daughter also wishes you two delicious meals."
Hearing this, Chen couldn't help but turn his eyes to look at her, but instead of a trace of annoyance, he smiled and said: "I still have two families to eat, you are worried about yourself, not necessarily, no one can eat." β
"I don't need you to remind you!"
Chen's face was full of sarcasm, but he didn't say anything more, turned around and left. Lu Ping felt sorry for her master, and said softly to her: "Girl, let's go back to the room to rest first." β
And Rao Anran rested for more than ten days, and took several pairs of medicine before he got better. Luping helped her out and walked around, looking at the empty yard, her heart was even more sad, and she kept coughing.
Rao Chengwen asked someone to send news from the prison that he had no chance of living, so let Rao Anran make a plan early and be careful of the Chen family. She looked at the letter, she didn't know how to be sad, she had been with everyone in her family for more than ten years, and in the end, it was not as clear as Li Xuan, an outsider, so that she could make plans early.
At this time, Chen's maid came over and said that Chen had been invited.
"What is she looking for me for?" Rao Anran asked with a cold face.
"The Mu family is here, Mrs. asked you to come over, what is the specific matter, the maid is not very clear."
"What is she looking for me for?" Rao Anran asked with a cold face.
"The Mu family is here, Mrs. asked you to come over, what is the specific matter, the maid is not very clear."
She glanced at the maid, thinking that the Chen family couldn't lie to her with the Mu family, so she said, "I'll change my clothes and go over." β
The maid replied and bowed and retired. Rao Anran changed his clothes and followed with his hind feet.
When she entered Chen's courtyard, she saw her flipping through the account book, and the maid reminded her to look up at Rao Anran, and said straight to the point: "Today, someone from the Mu family came to say that marrying the daughter of a criminal minister was insulting to the family, and someone came to tell me that I had retired from your family affairs." β
Although she had prepared in her heart, when she heard it with her own ears, she still felt uncomfortable. She took a deep breath, barely resisted the urge to cry, and tried to pretend to be calm, "I know." β
Chen saw that she didn't cry or make trouble, but he felt a little strange, and couldn't help but look up at her, lowered his head and continued to look at the account book, and said lightly or seriously: "Cry if you feel uncomfortable, don't bear it." β
"Seeing the true face of his family, what is there to cry about?" She said with a stubborn face.
Hearing this, Chen couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, "Good backbone, I hope you always have this backbone." β
Rao Anran didn't reply to her words, and instead asked, "Everyone else is gone, why don't you leave?" β
Chen put down the account book and looked at her and said, "If you don't want to cheat them out, how can the expenses in this mansion be reduced?" β
Her words were half-true and half-false, and Rao Anran was also skeptical, "Mother is really calculating." β
Chen smiled and didn't speak, waved his hand and said, "I also told you about the divorce, if you have nothing to do, go back first." β
Rao Anran didn't want to confront her here, so he bowed and retreated.
Lu Ping looked at Rao Anran, whose face was full of tears, and felt so distressed that she said softly: "Girl, if you feel uncomfortable, cry out, it's better to cry." β
Rao Anran turned his eyes to look at Lu Ping, the sourness and bitterness in his heart came to him, and he finally couldn't help crying bitterly, "How can he do this to me!" How can it! β
Lu Ping was also uncomfortable in her heart, but she was also relieved: "Maybe Mu Gongzi doesn't know, let's wait for him to come back." β
"What's the use of him coming back?" She said with a sad face, "Now that a person is away from tea, what can he do?" β
At this time, there was a faint thunder in the sky, and it rained heavily after a while, Rao Anran looked at the pouring rain, and smiled sadly, God couldn't stand it anymore.
