Chapter 73 The Unjustly Killed Mother
"Brother, I get it. It must be that I don't deserve the beauty of this world. It must be my fault, it's mother's fault, that's why the Chu family wiped out my mother's existence, and that's why everyone dislikes me." Shen Zhao said dejectedly.
Boss Chu looked at Shen Zhao, who was in agony and self-blame, with a painful expression. The third brother was not wrong, he was not wrong.
"No...it's not like that, Third Brother." He clenched his hands tightly, struggling and tormenting inside.
He knew that once he told the truth about what happened back then, he would not even have the chance to make amends or repent.
But he couldn't bear to see the third brother blaming himself for not knowing the truth.
"What's going on, big brother? Please, big brother, tell the truth!" Shen Zhao looked at Boss Chu with a sad expression.
Boss Chu's eyes suddenly widened. The expression and words of the third brother at this moment were the same as the poor woman in his memory, and a line of tears silently slid down his face.
The long-forgotten memories invaded him again, making him suffer and regret to the point of being unable to extricate himself.
His stepmother's face reappeared before his eyes, her eyes, which contained no blame but only sadness, staring straight at him.
"Please, Qing'er, tell the truth!"
"Mother begs you, Qing'er, please tell the truth and give me justice."
He seemed to have returned to that time, and the scene of his stepmother begging him reappeared before his eyes. He looked at his stepmother who was begging him, and wanted to tell the truth, but his selfishness made him ignore his stepmother's pleading.
He ruined his stepmother's life and his conscience for the rest of his life.
“Qing’er…Qing’er…Qing’er…”
His stepmother's voice echoed in his ears, striking his heart again and again.
"I... I... I was wrong, I was wrong... Ah..." Boss Chu held his head and wailed in pain. Shen Zhao immediately stepped forward, took Boss Chu's hand, and hurriedly shouted: "Brother... Brother..."
What happened back then that could make Boss Chu collapse like this? She couldn't drive Boss Chu crazy, otherwise the secret of Chu Mu's identity and Chu's mother would be completely buried.
Old Chu burst into tears as he looked at the third brother who was worried about him. How could he have the face to let the third brother treat him like this?
If it weren't for him, the third brother wouldn't have been without children and grandchildren, and wouldn't have lived such a miserable life.
It was all his fault. He has been condemned by his heart for half his life and regretted it for half his life. Now it is time for him to forgive his sins.
Boss Chu suddenly knelt down towards Chen Zhao with a plop, his whole body filled with sadness.
"Third brother, I have let you down, I have let my mother down, I deserve to die, I deserve to die, it should have been me who died, it was me who was so heartless that I harmed my mother, third brother, please take my life, take my life to avenge my mother."
Chu Mu, who was immersed in sadness, suddenly raised his head. What was his elder brother talking about?
My mother's death was related to him! He was the one who killed my mother.
This... how could this be... why is it like this, the only Chu family member he cares about now is actually the murderer of his mother.
Why? Why is this the result?
Shen Zhao also looked at Boss Chu in surprise. He would never have thought that the death of Chu Mu's biological mother was related to Boss Chu.
Although she doesn't like the Chu family, compared to other members of the Chu family, Boss Chu is still a person with conscience.
But now it seems that this is not the case.
Boss Chu covered his face and sat helplessly on the ground, sobbing and crying.
"Third brother, don't you want to know the truth? I will tell you everything today. Your biological mother is father's original wife, and the current old lady is just a concubine who used tricks to climb into father's bed.
When my mother was pregnant with me, she was brought into the Chu family on the eve of my stepmother's marriage to my father. My stepmother was kind and gentle by nature, and treated people politely and kindly, just like a traditional lady from a noble family.
She didn't embarrass my mother like the other mistresses in the mansion did, but instead took good care of her during her pregnancy. Everyone in the mansion knew that my stepmother and my father were deeply in love, and she showed her love for the concubine who was pregnant with my father's child.
At this point, Boss Chu hated his mother even more. Why did he come out from his mother's womb instead of his stepmother's womb?
The stepmother was obviously so good to my mother and never made things difficult for her. How could my mother be so ambitious as to deal with her?
Shen Zhao did not feel any pity for this mother-in-law whom he had never met, but instead wondered if Chu Mu's biological mother was stupid.
Bullshit about love between two people. If Chu's father really cared about her, he wouldn't have let another woman climb into his bed on the eve of his marriage.
The person was even carried into the Chu Mansion before her.
Bullshit, love the man and love his dog too. Someone else has snatched your husband away from you, and you can still be nice to that person. Are you stupid?
Don’t you have any brains?
Chu Mu's eyes were moistened. His mother must be such a kind and broad-minded person.
"My stepmother has always treated me as her own child. As far as I can remember, I've spent more time with her than with my mother.
When I was eight years old, my mother gave birth to my second child. My stepmother, who had been in the mansion for nine years but had no pregnancy, finally became pregnant.
At that time, my second child, who was born not long ago, and I fell seriously ill. It was my stepmother, who was six months pregnant, who stayed by our bedside and took care of us day and night until we recovered.
My heart is filled with gratitude towards my stepmother, and I vow to be filial to this kind woman."
Having said this, Boss Chu fell into deep regret.
On the other hand, Shen Zhao frowned directly.
Does Chu Mu’s mother have to be so kind?
Didn't she know how to cherish the pregnancy she finally got? She even took care of the concubine's twin children. She was too kind.
"My second son and I recovered, but my stepmother became ill and her health never improved until she gave birth to my third son.
The Chu family and the father all devoted their hearts to the kind-hearted stepmother, especially after the stepmother gave birth to a legitimate son. The father, who had never been promoted for many years, was transferred to Kyoto and became an official in the capital.
Everyone in the Chu family said that this was a blessing brought to the father by the legitimate son born by the legitimate mother.
The status of the stepmother and the third son in the Chu family is unprecedentedly high.
Gradually, the Chu family's attention turned to my stepmother and the newly born third child, causing my mother and I to be neglected in the Chu Mansion.
My mother felt threatened. Since my stepmother had just given birth to a child and could not follow my father to Kyoto to take up his post, my mother found an opportunity.
She instigated me to steal my stepmother's underwear and told me that only when my father stopped liking my stepmother would the love and care of my father and the Chu family fall back on us."
After hearing this, Shen Zhao already knew what was going to happen next.
There was a hint of contempt in his view of Boss Chu.
Boss Chu must have been ten years old at that time!
At the age of ten, you know everything.
From his narration, it was not difficult for her to hear how good Chu Mu's mother was to the three of them, mother and son, and she also said that she would be filial to this kind woman.
And then he was instigated by his mother?
Who would believe this!
Anyway, she doesn't believe it.
This was not instigated by his mother. It was obvious that he was selfish and could not bear such a huge gap, so he took advantage of the old woman's plan to harm his stepmother.
