Chapter 743: Chu Ningrui Gets Married 21
Liu Xiangping is Xi Lan's husband.
Xi Lan is only seventeen years old, Liu Xiangping is forty-four years old, twenty-seven years older than Xi Lan, more than two rounds older, and Liu Xiangping's eldest sons are one year older than Xi Lan.
It's no wonder that Xi Lan got married, but her face was not happy at all.
If it weren't for the Xi family's big house, Xi Lan would never have agreed to this family business.
Xi Feng listened to Lao Anren again, "I remember that Liu Xiangping's first wife was married to the daughter of the Xia family, but the Xia family has not been pregnant for seven or eight years, and the concubine is not allowed to conceive before her. β
Because the Xia family and the Liu family were once in-laws, Chu Lao'an paid more attention to the Liu family, so she was also very clear about Liu Xiangping's affairs.
Lao Anren said again, "The maiden family of Liu Xiangping's second wife, you should also know, is the Wu family in Suzhou City, the niece of Imperial Physician Wu." β
"Wu is a good fate, as soon as he entered the door, he gave birth to two sons to Liu Xiangping, and later gave birth to a daughter, but when he gave birth to a daughter, he had a difficult birth and injured his body, and since then, Wu's body has become weaker and weaker year by year."
"At that time, the people of the Wu family also wrote to the capital, wanting Imperial Physician Wu to ask for leave to come back to treat Wu's illness, but Imperial Physician Wu is a physician who specializes in treating royal nobles, where can he say that he will come back when he comes back from leave, and after that, Wu's body failed to survive in the end, and left half a year before Imperial Physician Wu came back."
When Xi Feng heard this, he wondered, "Imperial Doctor Wu can't come back, the Wu family can go to the capital, so why didn't the Liu family send the Wu family to the capital for treatment?" β
"You're still too naΓ―ve." Lao Anren nodded at Xi Feng's head in distress, "Do you think, why did the Wu family have a difficult birth?" β
"It can't be intentional by the Liu family, right?" Xi Feng was shocked and guessed.
Chu Lao'an nodded, "I heard that within a few years of the Wu family's entry into the door, he gave birth to two sons to the Liu family by himself, and often begged for the benefits of his mother's family, and the Liu family had several important businesses, all because the Wu family leaked to the Wu family and was taken away by the Wu family, and because of this, the Wu family was in the Liu family, in fact, it was not liked by Mrs. Liu, and even Liu Xiangping was much colder to her later. β
No matter how generous the Liu family is, it is impossible to tolerate the existence of a person who betrays the Liu family all the time.
Wu's death from illness can be said to be what the Liu family expected.
It may also be speculated that Wu's difficult birth was the handwriting of the Liu family.
Of course, this is just speculation, there is no evidence, so no one dares to accuse the Liu family.
"Not long after the Wu family died, the Wu family wanted to marry a cousin of the Wu family to Liu Xiangping to fill the house, but the Liu family suffered a loss, where can they suffer every time, but I didn't expect that Liu Xiangping rejected the daughter of the Wu family, but married your cousin."
Chu Lao'an said, and he was also embarrassed in his heart.
The reputation of the Xi family's big house is not good, and after Xi Lan marries the Liu family, she may have to endure how many people's contempt and ridicule.
"Auntie, in a few days, it will be the day when the eldest lady gets married, and we should also hang up the red silk and red lanterns in our house, right?"
"Well, it's time to hang it up, and add a few more red lanterns to the garden to make the house look more festive." Lao Anren said with a smile.
