Section 509 Chapter 511 Old Friends Meet

Liu Rong has always been a smart person. What's more, she has always known what to say and how to speak in order to speak to Duan Zheng's heart.

At this time, seeing Duan Zheng's expression, he had changed. She knew that Duan Zheng had already hesitated.

Because, what Liu Rong said was the truth.

He has been away for many years, and he doesn't know much about the marriageable young men in Beijing. Moreover, Liu Rong's brother and sister came from a humble background, Liu Fu joined the army as a teenager, and when he grew up, he found this only sister, so since then, his sister has been in the military with him for many years, so there are no relatives such as clan relatives at all.

A lone woman, if she has no support from her mother's family, will become the only talk handle despised by the world. Not to mention anything else, even the current Liu Rong, no matter where she goes, has to suffer from the eyes of others.

So as Liu Rong said, what can he do to help Liu Rong choose a good son-in-law?

Liu Rong saw Duan Zheng's expression moved, she stepped forward again, pulled Duan Zheng's sleeve, and began to plead bitterly:

"Brother Duan, you also know that people's hearts are sinister, and I only have you as a relative, and the only person I can rely on is you, let's take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you help me choose a husband. But how can others afford a woman like me, who has not received any orthodox education? So, if you marry me, how do you know that I won't be exposed to the turbidity of the mother-in-law? I was angry because it was a small matter, and I knew that my big brother would be the master for me. However, when the time comes, don't say that Brother Duan has not been in the mansion for a long time, even if he is in the mansion, what can he do? These short little things in the family, you are a big man, how can you take care of the door? If I meet someone unladylike, won't you ruin my life? ”

It was Liu Rong's words that made Duan Zheng hesitate.

In fact, Duan Zheng was originally a decisive person, but since Du Qingluan left, he began to slowly reflect on his life and began to think about himself, everything he did before was really wrong?

After Liu Rong finished saying this, she hid in the corner and cried mournfully. She cried that she had lost her only relative, and she cried that she was lonely and helpless from now on.

Liu Rong's crying made Duan Zheng feel sad, and in the end, he sighed even more, agreed to Liu Rong's request, and brought Liu Rong back to Duan's mansion.

Mrs. Ding Rou is a smart woman, and she is an empathetic woman. Therefore, when she looked at Liu Rong, she understood the whole story. However, she just smiled faintly and gave Liu Rong the title of "concubine".

The status of the "concubine" is higher than that of the maid, but lower than that of the lady. But in the Duan Mansion, there is no Taijun, no uncle and nephew, and in the entire Duan Mansion, it is all supported by Mrs. Ding Rou, so even if she is a concubine, she is half the master in the Duan Mansion.

Mrs. Ding Rou was very suspicious of Liu Rong's intentions. However, she understands better that what Duan Zheng can give Liu Rong is only mercy, not love, so in Mrs. Ding Rou's heart, as long as this Liu Rong can keep to herself, it's okay.

However, Liu Rong has never been a satisfied person. As soon as she entered Duan's mansion, she began to show favor to Duan Zheng.

At this time, Duan Zheng first lost his beloved, and then lost his friends, every day, he borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, where would he care about these men and women?

Every time she was rejected by Duan Zheng, Liu Rong's heart would be so hateful that her teeth were itching. Fortunately, Liu Rong did not get the favor, and his wife Ding Rou was not much better. During this period, except for the first and fifteenth days of the new year, which must be spent in the lady's room, the rest of the time is alone, staying in the study.

Frustrated men are the best to seduce and take the bait, so after Liu Rong was carefully dressed, she appeared on the stage.

That night, although Duan Zheng kept calling it, it was Du Qingluan's name. However, it was Liu Rong who slept with Duan Zheng.

After Duan Zheng woke up, he was very sorry in his heart. He first apologized to Liu Rong, and in the end, he was even more remorseful, in this very complicated mood, he didn't dare to see Liu Rong again.

Mrs. Ding Rou quickly learned about this matter, Liu Rong was not punished, but she was completely snubbed by Mrs. Ding Rou, and there was almost no place for her in the entire Duan Mansion.

Liu Rong has always been a scheming person. Therefore, what she cares about is not the length of a day. Instead, I took this as an encouragement to sharpen my heart.

Duan Zheng returned, and under Liu Rong's careful design, he knew Liu Rong's situation, so he was furious. Liu Rong regained favor, and from then on, she regained a firm foothold in Duan's mansion as Duan Zheng's concubine.

Mrs. Ding Rou was very angry about this, and at this time, she happened to be about to give birth. So, under the anger and even more provocation of Liu Rong, her body quickly weakened.

Duan Qingming was born under this circumstance. In order to ease the relationship with Duan Zheng, Mrs. Ding Rou named her daughter Duan Qingming for the sake of her sister who had not seen her for a long time.

Duan Zheng was very happy when he heard Duan Qingming's name, and he had never reconciled with his wife, but Liu Rong was left out in the cold again.

Liu Rong is a patient person. She never cares about momentary gains and losses, as if she can stand until now with the identity of a concubine.

Liu Rong began to curry favor with his wife Ding Rou in every possible way. She just expected it, and Madame didn't dare to embarrass herself anymore for the sake of Duan Zheng's face.

At that time, Mrs. Ding Rou was a mother for the first time, and she devoted all her energy to her daughter, and she began to be tolerant of the woman who robbed her husband in the past.

Liu Rong is not in a hurry. It's just to please Mrs. blindly. Until Duan Yu was born in the middle of the night and Duan Zhengyuan was on the border, Liu Rong made a move.

Under Liu Rong's design, Mrs. Ding Rou had a heavy hemorrhage and almost took her life, but since then, she has never been able to get better.

At the beginning of March, Duan Zheng returned from the frontier and saw his bedridden wife. And Mrs. Ding Rou finally ran out of oil, and after explaining the aftermath to Duan Zheng, she left and returned to the West.

In the first two years, Liu Rong still waited for Duan Zheng carefully, and often shed tears when she mentioned his wife in front of Duan Zheng. And Liu Rong used to be the closest person to Duan Zheng, so in the end, everything in this mansion became Liu Rong's bag. And among them, there are also the lives of Duan Qingming and Duan Yu.

Soon, Duan Zheng left the capital again, and as a result, Duan's mansion completely became Liu Rong's world.

Things were originally perfect, so perfect that Liu Rong would wake up laughing even if she dreamed in the middle of the night. However, what she didn't expect was that when she gave birth to Duan Yulan, there was a problem with her body, and from then on, she began to be entangled with illness, and she continued for several years.

Although this is the case, Duan Zheng's time in the mansion is not much. Therefore, Liu Rong is still Duan Zheng's most trusted woman, and she is still the hostess of this mansion.

Although, after Ding Rou's death, the Ding family was angry and demanded that Duan Zheng should no longer have a proper room before Duan Qingming and Duan Yu became a family, but this did not change Liu Rong's status in Duan's mansion.

Duan Zheng agreed to the Ding family's request without thinking about it, and began to proceed to the letter. Originally, the two women hidden in his heart had left him, so who else in this world could get into his Duan Zheng's eyes? So, after explaining this matter to Liu Rong with an indifferent attitude, he didn't even say a word of comfort.

It was also from that time that she didn't care at all on the surface, but Liu Rong, whose heart had begun to be distorted, began to vent her anger on the young Duan Qingming and Duan Yu. This situation was maintained until Duan Qingming's rebirth. All of this came to an abrupt end.

How many years have passed, when Liu Rong recalls everything in the past, she has a feeling of a dream in ten years.

The voice in the room was so familiar, so familiar, Liu Rong actually had a feeling of trance, as if she, Du Qingluan, and even Duan Zheng were still in their youth. It seems that at that time, she was not a mother, nor was she Duan Zheng's concubine. is just a little girl, often following behind Duan Zheng and Du Qingluan, secretly imitating everything about Du Qingluan.
