Chapter 1226 How Can I Be Content
"this……"
Jiang Wan was really stunned by this news. She looked at Chu Qi and Mrs. Chu in surprise.
Chu Qi was as surprised as Jiang Wan. She frowned and her expression was a little out of control.
"I told you earlier that Hua Zhen had bad intentions, but you didn't believe me. Now that things have turned out like this, are you willing to accept this?"
"I am willing? How can I be willing?"
Madam Chu gritted her teeth and said, "If others knew that my aunt and niece share the same husband, it would not only be shameful for the Chu and Hua families, but also for you. You won't be able to hold your head up when you go out in the future."
Thinking of what she saw this morning, Mrs. Chu wanted to poke her eyes out.
I finally understood Chu Qi's disappointment and embarrassment yesterday.
"What does mother want?"
Chu Qi appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil. Fortunately, Jiang Wan was still there.
She held Chu Qi's hand to comfort her, and she would always stand by Chu Qi's side no matter when.
"Qiqi, your father is now bewitched by Zhen'er, and he is determined to take a concubine.
No matter what I say, it's useless. You actually said you wanted to change Hua Zhen's identity. Now I can only rely on you."
Mrs. Chu looked at Chu Qi pleadingly and tried to pull Chu Qi's hand, but Chu Qi avoided her calmly.
"Mother, I am a married daughter now, so it is not appropriate for me to take care of my parents' affairs.
But I believe that my grandfather will definitely not tolerate such a thing happening, and my mother can ask him to make the decision."
"Having said that, your father is your grandfather's son after all, and I'm afraid he'd feel bad for his son."
Mrs. Chu knew that she had not left a good impression on Mr. Chu over the years, so she was afraid that Mr. Chu would favor his son.
"That's not what you said yesterday."
Chu Qi couldn't help herself and blurted out these words, which made their mother-daughter relationship very stiff.
In front of Jiang Wan, Mrs. Chu couldn't scold Chu Qi, so she had to soften her attitude.
"Qiqi, this is different from what happened yesterday. If your father had his eyes on other women,
I wouldn't be so angry. If he wants to marry her, then he can. But she is your cousin.
Your father has now also identified her. This is a double betrayal. How can I not be angry? "
"Yes, it happens to be my cousin."
Chu Qi said self-deprecatingly: “If other women wanted to destroy my marriage with Jiu Chi, I might be able to remain calm.
But this person is my biological cousin, and my biological mother supports her. Isn't this a double betrayal?"
Chu Qi's words left Mrs. Chu speechless, and she finally begged Chu Qi humbly.
"Qiqi, you are all my mother has now, and your brother is far away in Kyoto, so you must help your mother.
You don't want to call your cousin "Auntie", it will be so awkward for everyone to see each other from now on."
Chu Qi didn't want to bother with this troublesome matter, so Jiang Wan gently tugged at her sleeve.
"Qiqi, why don't we go to the Chu family and take a look?"
She was not doing this for Mrs. Chu's sake, but she knew that given Mr. Chu's character, he would never tolerate such a thing happening.
There is no need for Chu Qi to ruin his reputation and put himself in an unjust position because of this matter.
I might as well go back, it's just a visit.
"Okay, I'll listen to my sister-in-law."
Chu Qi instructed the wet nurses to take good care of the children, and then Jiang Wan accompanied her back to the Chu Mansion.
Along the way, Mrs. Chu wanted to speak several times, but was hit by Chu Qi's cold eyes.
After finally arriving at the Chu Mansion, Chu Qi held Jiang Wan's arm. Her expression was very indifferent, as if she was not returning to her mother's home.
It was like visiting a stranger's home, which made Mrs. Chu feel very uncomfortable.
He finally realized the harm he had brought to Chu Qi.
Mrs. Chu took her all the way to the backyard and went straight to where Hua Zhen had rested last night.
When they arrived, Hua Zhen was massaging Chu's father's shoulders. The two of them were very affectionate, like a newlywed couple.
"Uncle, judging from the look on Aunt's face just now, she probably won't allow me to enter the mansion."
"Jane."
Father Chu sighed softly, took her hand gently and said, “After all, your aunt is my legal wife.
I spoiled you so much in the past, and it was us who were wrong about what happened between us.
You should be more patient in everything, and after a while, she will definitely feel sorry for you as her niece."
Hua Zhen was a little unhappy when she heard Father Chu's tone, "Although my aunt is an elder.
But I am also a decent girl. If my uncle hadn’t opened the wrong door last night, I would have many choices…”
She never mentioned that she had someone bring Mr. Chu to her house on purpose.
Since her aunt and Chu Qi want to destroy her.
Then she will annoy them to death!
Huazhen's mind was already a little twisted.
Hearing this, Father Chu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Hua Zhen distressedly, “What you said does not make sense.
But you also know your aunt's temper. I'm afraid she won't give in for a while. The most urgent thing is to get her to agree to let you enter the house.
As for what happens next, we’ll talk about it later. Since I’ve allowed you to enter my mansion, I won’t treat you unfairly in the future.”
"Then I will believe you this time, Chu Lang."
Not to mention Chu Qi and Mrs. Chu, even Jiang Wan felt disgusted by this title.
Hua Zhen's ability to disgust people is still beyond the reach of others.
The two of them smiled sweetly and looked up, and saw Mrs. Chu and others coming.
Especially in front of his daughter Chu Qi, Chu's father felt a little embarrassed.
"My husband, in front of our daughter today, how do you think we should deal with this matter?"
"Ma'am, don't be angry first, let's discuss it properly."
Father Chu glanced at Chu Qi awkwardly, “Qi Qi, your sister Zhen Er is now your father’s person.
As a father, I cannot be an unfaithful man, otherwise your sister Zhen'er will not be able to survive."
"She is not only yours, but also the one who was guarding you yesterday."
Mrs. Chu had been ignoring the guard yesterday, but now she is bringing up the guard.
Hua Zhen burst into tears, "Aunt, if you mention that person again, are you forcing me to die?
If you hadn't promised me a good future, why would I have followed you to Jiuzhou?"
She looked at Chu Qi pitifully, "Sister, I'm not here to destroy your family."
Jiang Wan subconsciously recalled a strange line from a certain drama: I am here to join your family.
"Qiqi, you can't agree to your father, otherwise what will you call her in the future? Sister or aunt?"
Mrs. Chu looked at Father Chu with resentment, "Do you know how embarrassing it will be for Qiqi and Ge'er if you do this?
Which good girl would be willing to marry into such a messy family in the future? You want to ruin Ge'er!"
"Qiqi, I've already thought about it. Hua Zhen of the Hua family died of illness in Jiuzhou, and there will be another Aunt Zhen in the world in the future.
This is the orphan girl I rescued in Jiuzhou. She won’t affect you.”
Mr. Chu's thoughts were clear, and Mrs. Chu was so angry that she was about to go crazy. Chu Qi looked at Jiang Wan blankly.
Jiang Wan lowered her voice and said to her, "Qiqi, you, a junior, can't handle this.
Let's wait for Grandpa Chu to come. I believe he can make the best decision for the Chu family."
"Sister-in-law is right."
Chu Qi nodded slightly and looked at her parents with disappointment.
She once thought she was very happy, with loving parents and a harmonious family, but it turned out to be just an illusion.
"Dad, as a daughter, I can't control what happens in your backyard. I will let my grandfather make the final decision."
