Chapter 29: The Dissolute Lady (1) The difficulty of the system has been upgraded again...
In Yunshui Town, the fog was thick. In a messy alley, several women in coarse cloth clothes were looking towards the house at the west entrance, each with a complicated expression on their face.
"What a sin, you unfaithful child! You are in big trouble now!"
"You know what? You deserved to be crippled!"
"On a good day, you actually do something to tease yourself."
They were talking about Yun Kexin, the head lady of Zhang’s Tea House.
I heard that the lady of this family was extremely unfaithful to her husband and had been hooking up with some random man behind his back, even planning to elope. When her husband found out, he broke both of her legs. Now he wants to kick Yun Kexin out of the house.
"I heard that woman is very stubborn and won't say a word!"
"You vagrant, what else do you have to say?" said an elderly man with a frown.
He probably also thought of his unfaithful daughter-in-law at home, who was flirting and posing every day and wandering around outside. Who knows, she might cuckold her son one day!
The old man couldn't help but feel a little angry when he thought about this. He snorted slightly and said, "I think that woman should be nailed to a pillar and hacked to death."
The wanton young woman who was being talked about by everyone was now kneeling in the main room of the Zhang family compound with disheveled hair.
He had just suffered severe torture and his legs were broken. His left leg was bent and drooped on the floor.
The man's eyebrows were like knives, his eye sockets were like eagles, and beneath his handsome face was a cold indifference that could kill without bloodshed. "You know you're wrong."
He asked the woman on the ground.
The drifting ice sea gently raised its head.
This time the story goes like this:
This time she was indeed wearing the body of a dissolute woman.
Zhang was a famous tea merchant in Yunshui Town. She came from a wealthy family. The eldest lady, Yun Kexin, and the owner of the tea house, Zhang Ruochen, were originally an enviable loving couple. The owner liked her very much and was a typical infatuated lover. This was a well-known fact in the town, but the eldest lady was arrogant. Although she was beautiful, she had repeatedly offended the owner Zhang.
It seems a bit like being spoiled due to being spoiled.
At first the man felt it was new and interesting, but after a long time, he couldn't help getting angry, so he took in a concubine, hoping to dampen the mistress's arrogance and make her more obedient and gentle to him.
Unexpectedly, the prestige did not disappear, but the lady became disillusioned with the owner of the manor, and turned around to hook up with her first love outside.
This lover is the lady’s childhood sweetheart.
They have been playing together since they were young, and if their parents hadn't separated them, they might have gotten married.
The eldest lady was a woman of sentimental temperament, unwilling to have any attachment to her unfaithful husband. She hated him for betraying his original vows. If he took a concubine, she would take a husband, just to see who could be more cruel.
So, the lady began to communicate with her first love through private letters, and in the letters they exchanged, they were all thinking about each other.
In a moment of thought, the lady became pregnant with her first love's child.
Originally, she just wanted to have a quarrel with her husband to avenge his betrayal and indifference, but she never expected that the fake would become real and she gave her body away for nothing.
But since this was the case, the lady could only grit her teeth and prepare to leave with the other party, but she was caught by the owner's spies on the day of her departure.
In a rage, the owner of the manor hanged her on the city gate tower on the street, wrote her debauched stories into a booklet, and distributed it to everyone.
Yun Kexin was also a person who cared about her reputation. Unable to bear such humiliation, she bit her tongue and committed suicide on the city gate tower.
The drifting ice sea penetrated her.
At this time, she and her first love had just started exchanging letters, and their feelings had just begun to sprout, and the reputation of "cheating" had not yet been confirmed.
The owner of the teahouse broke her legs and made her kneel in the ancestral temple. If she did not repent and cut off correspondence with that man, she would be kicked out of the Zhang compound and would never be the mistress of this teahouse again.
In the original world, when the eldest lady's correspondence was discovered, her legs were broken, and she became even more angry with the owner of the manor. Her "intention to cheat" turned into "actual cheating." This is how the subsequent events unfolded.
At this moment, hearing the owner of the manor asking him to break off contact with his lover, Liu Binghai sneered twice.
It seems that this man still has some feelings for this lady. After such an incident, he actually gave her a chance to admit her mistake and correct it.
Liu Binghai looked up at Master Zhang.
He was a cold-hearted man to the core. If he had not fallen in love with her, he would not have given her the status of the eldest lady of the Zhang family.
She lowered her head, looked at her broken legs, and said lightly, "No need."
The man frowned heavily, and his eye sockets looked like a bottomless quagmire.
"What's the meaning."
The maidservant next to her was carrying something to change her medicine. Seeing how stubborn the lady was, she was so frightened that her whole body started shaking. Seeing the owner's dark face, she hurried over to try to persuade him.
As soon as Zhang Ruochen looked up, the maid dared not come again. She walked away and stared at the lady closely.
"Let her speak."
The man's voice was as quiet as the waves on the lake.
Liu Binghai looked up at the man whom the original owner had loved deeply in the past, sneered, looked at his reflection on the floor, and said lightly, "I'd better leave."
The girl who heard it was terrified.
What's wrong with the lady? We just exchanged a few letters. I've already given her a chance to correct her mistakes. Why doesn't she take advantage of this opportunity and live a good life? Why is she leaving?
If she leaves, where can she go?
Her mother's family had fallen on hard times, and she only had a few maids she brought from her mother's family.
Besides, even if her parents' family hadn't fallen on hard times, they might not care about her if she went back in this situation!
Is this lady crazy?
The girl had followed Yun Kexin since she was a child. She knew that although the eldest lady was arrogant, she had a kind heart and was usually generous to them.
Seeing that she was not doing well, the maid became anxious and called out "Madam" in panic.
The call of "Madam" woke up Liu Binghai.
She looked up at the husband who had once pitied the original owner, and couldn't help but force a sarcastic smile.
Zhang Zhuangzhu was already furious at her words "I'd better leave", and seeing her smile like that, his expression darkened and he shouted, "What are you laughing at!"
Liu Binghai shook his head.
She looked at her broken legs, which seemed to have been deformed, with the knees bent crookedly. Every movement caused pain from the tendons to the bones.
"Since our marriage has come to this, what's the point in continuing?" She touched her broken legs and said expressionlessly, "Let me go."
Her hair was down, covering her eyes, and her head was lowered, so her expression could not be seen.
I just felt that the tone of the words "I'll go" was slightly cold, as if he had no interest in all this anymore.
"What do you mean..." the man asked coldly.
Could it be that this woman who did such a ridiculous thing still wants to divorce him?
The girl next to her was holding a basin and was shaking with fear.
Madam, please don't be silly.
Liu Binghai said calmly, "Since I've done something like this, I'm naturally not qualified to divorce you." She looked up, gazing at the man's stern features, and said sternly, "So, you should marry your wife."
Bang... a basin of hot water fell to the ground, and the maid looked at the lady in surprise.
Is there any woman in the world who would take the initiative to let her husband repair her?
Zhang Ruochen looked at the expressionless woman, a surge of anger rising to his chest, the veins on his neck showing through with anger. He pointed at Liu Binghai and said word by word, "You said that, think it through!"
Liu Binghai nodded, "That couldn't be clearer."
The man's teeth were chattering.
This ignorant woman...
In order to play around with that adulterer, she even wanted to ask him to mend his wife?
Did she think he would just watch the two of them having fun outside?
Liu Binghai probably guessed what he was thinking and said calmly, "Don't worry, I will definitely end it all with him."
The man was stunned...
If it wasn't to elope with that person, then why did he want to marry his wife?
Zhang Ruochen looked at this woman who suddenly seemed unpredictable. Her brows were furrowed, and although her leg was broken, she didn't show any trace of worry. Hadn't she cried, made a fuss, and even threatened to hang herself yesterday, insulting his heartlessness and disloyalty to the fullest extent?
Today, why did it suddenly become so strange...
The man looked at the drifting ice sea and thought of the words "repairing his wife". His fingers trembled slightly unconsciously.
He is not her childhood sweetheart, but she is his childhood sweetheart.
They met in a cold winter when plum blossoms were blooming.
That year, he went to the mountains to pick tea and saw her in a plum forest.
She was wearing a pink cloak and circling in the plum blossom forest. She was as beautiful as a plum blossom and had a charming look.
It was so stunning that he felt there was no other such tenderness in the world.
He looked at her infatuatedly, but she picked up a stone and threw it at him, calling him a shameless lunatic.
There is no longer any trace of the tenderness that was just there when she was spinning alone.
She said that she had a half-brother in her family who liked to tease people. He was a scoundrel and had improper thoughts about her every day. Therefore, she hated shameless people who stared at girls the most.
After saying that, he picked up another stone and threw it at him.
She was wild, like a little wolf, but he liked her.
He really loves her.
I love her stubborn and unyielding look, and I love her determination to draw a clear line between herself and her family.
That year, she was getting married, but her family said they had no dowry to give her.
If she didn't have any, then she didn't have any. She took the banknotes she had saved since she was a child, led her two personal maids and went out.
He knew that her family was in chaos and her father had no say in the matter.
He swore that he would make her the treasure in his hands.
He treated her so sincerely and loved her sincerely, but he didn't know why she secretly took contraceptive pills without his knowledge.
Could it be that she never loved herself? Otherwise, why wouldn't she be willing to give birth to a child for him?
Or, since then, she has already been harboring feelings for her first love?
The day he discovered that she had secretly taken the contraceptive pills, he was devastated and extremely heartbroken.
He was angry and asked her why she was secretly using contraception, but she remained indifferent and just said that she was still young and didn't want to be a mother.
Well, she doesn't want to be a mother!
So he found someone to replace her as a mother!
He took a concubine and asked her to see if there was a woman in the world who was willing to bear his children.
He thought she would change her ways, but unexpectedly, she gave up and started to have feelings for other men...
Repair your wife?
A few days ago, he was furious and blurted out this word.
They once loved each other so much, and he regarded her as the most important thing in this village.
Now, she asked him to correct his wife...
So calm, so indifferent, with an expression that showed she had no attachment to him anymore.
"Think it over carefully." the man asked again.
The maid who had knocked over the basin of water was about to rush over again, but Zhang Ruochen blocked her with his arm as usual.
The maid stood outside the door, looking anxiously, her steps frozen in place.
"I've made up my mind." Liu Binghai raised his head and looked at the man who had impressed him at first sight: "I'm leaving."
——
Everyone knows that Zhang's Tea House has a wife, and it was the woman who proposed it herself.
The town was buzzing with talk, all guessing that she was too embarrassed to stay in the Zhang family any longer, and had to resort to the title of "wife repairer" to regain a shred of dignity.
"I heard she broke her leg?"
"Yeah, you're just playing with your own hands. How can you not get a beating for doing something like that?"
Liu Binghai packed his bags at home, preparing to leave Zhang's Tea House the next day.
The maid who served her personally kept admonishing her, "Madam, don't be so willful. Where can you go after you leave? Apologize to the owner of the manor and let's stay here."
Liu Binghai folded the clothes and said, "I will go by myself. You don't have to accompany me."
The maid was startled. "What did you say?"
Liu Binghai looked back at her. She was a girl as beautiful as a flower and was almost at the age to get married. What was the point of following her?
"I will go and talk to the owner of the manor and ask him to find you a good family. You can stay here and don't have to follow me out there to suffer."
The little girl couldn't believe it, "But I have been following the lady since I was little!"
Liu Binghai stopped what he was doing and said with a smile, "All good things must come to an end. Even if I don't leave, won't you still have to get married?"
The maid was speechless.
The maid's name was Liu Zhen, and everyone else called her Zhen'er. Her family sold tofu, and she had followed the eldest lady since she was a child.
The lady has been wild since she was a child, like a little wolf. She always likes to run around outside like a boy, go up the mountain to pick herbs, and go down the mountain to herd sheep. She just doesn't like to stay at home and do some needlework.
The eldest lady is also very proud. Although she is a concubine's daughter, her backbone is no less than that of others.
Unfortunately, her mother was not favored at home, and the eldest lady was also neglected. However, she was very generous to the servants. Whenever she got some good food, she would secretly save it for these girls and boys.
Even though they refused to eat, she forced them to eat. It was very touching.
Therefore, Zhen'er liked following the eldest lady very much and had no complaints at all.
She always felt bad seeing her lady having to go out alone and suffer.
"Will the lady come back?" Zhen'er asked another stupid question.
Liu Binghai laughed and said, "I was kicked out, not going shopping, so why would I come back?"
Zhen Er immediately said, "Then I want to go with the lady!"
She couldn't bear to be separated from her master.
Liu Binghai said sternly: "No!"
Zhen'er was startled. She had never seen her master speak to her in such a harsh tone.
The master used to be arrogant, but his arrogance was accompanied by a hint of delicacy, and he didn’t have that harsh and stern demeanor.
Jane stared at her blankly.
Liu Binghai said, "I don't know what will happen to you when I leave. It will cause you a lot of inconvenience. Just stay here and don't make me worry about you outside."
The lady was thinking about her, and Zhen'er's eyes turned red again.
Liu Binghai asked again, "Have you prepared what I asked you to prepare?"
Zhen'er nodded and called out again, "Xiaoxi, where are the master's things?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a boy named Xiaoxi came in from outside the door, pushing a four-wheeled wheelchair with a bag on it.
She looked at the four-wheeled vehicle and told Zhen'er, "I'm leaving now. You and Xiaoxi should take care of each other and don't let others bully you."
Zhen'er's eyes turned red again, "Madam, can you do it yourself?"
"Yes."
Zhen'er's eyes were red. Liu Binghai took out a few ingots of silver from his pocket and handed them to Zhen'er. This was part of the savings that the original owner had saved in the village over the years. She kept most of it for herself and left a small part for Zhen'er and Xiaoxi.
The next day, Liu Binghai left Zhang's Tea House.
She had to leave quickly.
Since she came through, she realized one thing.
The system that killed people without bloodshed added new difficulties for her.
In the first life, it gave her no memory.
In the second life, it gave her a big square face.
In this life, when she looked up and saw the owner of the manor for the first time, her heart skipped a beat.
She discovered that she still loved him.
Yes, she still loved him.
In this life, the system allowed her to retain the original owner's feelings for the owner of the manor.
It is the most primitive emotion from the heart of the original owner's body.
It's a mixture of strong love, grievance, unwillingness and heartbreak.
There is a saying that goes, if I am not me, if you are not you, what do I care about me, and what do you care about you.
If I don’t love you, I can just kick you away. But if I still love you, how can I stop caring about and expecting you?
So she had to leave immediately.
After picking up the bag, Liu Binghai was carried by Zhen'er and his broken leg was stuffed into the wheelchair.
In this life, she was afraid that she would have to live with it for a long time.
Come on, brother… She got on the four-wheeler and patted the wooden wheelchair.
Everyone was speechless.
The former lady, sitting on a four-wheeled cart, rushed towards the entrance of the teahouse as if she was riding on a Hot Wheels.
The speed was so fast that it seemed as if a whirlwind was forming above my head.
