Chapter 23: Taking Chunniang as a Concubine

Liang Jinyu quickly stepped forward and asked concernedly, "Chun Niang, what's wrong with you?"

Chunniang shook her head in pain, tears streaming down her face. She was exhausted from the torture.

Liang Jinyu saw a stone pillar nearby and advised, "I'll help you go over there and rest for a while."

Chunniang took a deep breath, wiped the dirt from her mouth, and said weakly, "No, I'll have more when I get back—ugh!"

Before she could finish her sentence, Chunniang started vomiting again, and all she vomited was bitter water.

Seeing Chunniang's uncomfortable expression, a guess suddenly came to my mind.

Liang Jinyu pursed her lips and said jokingly, "Why did Chunniang vomit like this? If you didn't know, you would think you had morning sickness."

In an instant, Chunniang's face turned pale, her lips trembled, and she could not make a sound.

Liang Jinyu thought to himself, it seems like it's true.

One, she suddenly got pregnant. If this news got out, Chunniang would definitely be caught by the Wang family and put in a pig cage.

Liang Jinyu stopped talking and said with a smile, "I was just joking, Chunniang, don't be angry."

Suddenly, Chunniang pushed Liang Jinyu away and trembled in fear, saying, "I didn't, stop talking nonsense, I didn't, I didn't."

Seeing Chunniang fleeing in panic, Liang Jinyu realized, could it be that Chunniang didn't know that she was pregnant?

Liang Jinyu shook her head and said, forget it, it would be better to let her know earlier so that she can be prepared earlier.

Deal with it quickly while it's still young.

Thinking of this, Liang Jinyu suddenly remembered that in her previous life, after she became pregnant, she had also thought about secretly aborting the child. Chen Lai Fu forced her to have that child.

She felt disgusted and regarded it as a disgrace, so how could she possibly stay?

So she took the opportunity of working in the fields and deliberately rolled down the slope. Unexpectedly, she fell and got injured, but the child was not aborted.

Afterwards, Wang ridiculed her, saying that if she could learn from Yang and hit herself in the stomach with a stick a few times, it might be of some use.

If I remember correctly, Chunniang's surname is Yang.

Since Wang said so, it means that Chunniang's pregnancy is already known to everyone.

Liang Jinyu sighed, and her chest felt as if a weight had fallen on it, making it heavy.

...

In the evening, Liang Jinyu was cooking in the kitchen.

Liang Dingfang came in carrying a bundle of kindling, saying that he had raked the roadside when he was going down the mountain.

Liang Jinyu saw through the window that Chen Lai Fu walked into the yard empty-handed. As soon as he came back, he sat on a stool and asked Dani to pour him some water.

"Don't do this kind of thing in the future. You are in the period of growing up. If you do too much heavy work, you will not grow taller." Liang Jinyu retracted his gaze.

Liang Dingfang wanted to say it was okay, but when he heard that the president was not tall, he swallowed his words immediately: "I understand."

"By the way, sister, when I came back, I saw Lao Deng - no, I saw the old man seemed to go to the back mountain." Liang Dingfang said in a low voice, secretly annoyed that he had been led astray by Chen Dani.

"Back mountain?" Liang Jinyu immediately thought of Chunniang and understood.

Ever since he broke his head last time, Old Man Chen has never gone out for a walk late at night again.

Liang Jinyu guessed that he had a conflict with Chunniang. Since he was in a hurry to go there before it got dark, it seemed that the two of them had reconciled.

"She is so lazy all day long that she can't even wash her clothes. What daughter-in-law is as lazy as her? I don't know what sin I committed in my previous life."

Wang came out of the house holding a piece of clothing, swearing. She did not dare to look for Liang Jinyu, but complained to Chen Laifu: "Look, look, this is the clothes your daughter-in-law washed. Does she really think I can't see because of my old eyesight? Look, what's the difference between washing and not washing?"

Liang Jinyu sneered and waited for Chen Laifu to come in.

Sure enough, after a while Chen Lai Fu came into the kitchen carrying clothes.

"Jinyu, did you forget this one when you were washing clothes? I see it's still dirty." Chen Lai Fu said tactfully, but his eyes were full of impatience.

He is already tired enough after working all day, and now he has to deal with all this mess. It's so annoying!

Liang Jinyu glanced at them and said unhappily, "There's not even a soapberry at home, and mother won't let me heat water, so how can I wash clothes cleanly? If you don't believe me, I won't wash your clothes anymore in the future, to save myself the trouble."

Chen Lai Fu was speechless after being rebuked. The most important thing was that if Liang Jinyu really quit, he would have nothing to wear.

"Then, then why don't you wash these clothes again tomorrow?"

Liang Jinyu ignored him and scooped a spoonful of lard into the pot.

Chen Lai Fu's heart tightened when he saw this. What a spendthrift woman! Such a big spoonful was enough to cook three dishes.

"Boss, come here for a moment." Old man Chen came back with a gloomy face.

So soon, are they having another fight?

Liang Jinyu was curious, so after Chen Lai Fu left, she hurriedly called Dani in.

"Go and listen to see what happened to your grandfather." Liang Jinyu leaned close to her ear and whispered.

Chen Dani's eyes lit up and she immediately sneaked around the corner.

Liang Dingfang frowned: "She has become a different person since she fell into the water."

Isn't it just that he has become a different person, Liang Jinyu smiled.

In the room.

Wang was very happy: "Old man, you finally figured it out. Liang is a cunning and cunning woman. She has nothing but a pretty face. I said I didn't agree to her marriage. I should have divorced her long ago!"

Old Man Chen looked at Chen Laifu with a complicated expression: "What do you think?"

Chen Laifu's face was full of knots: "Dad, I divorced my wife less than two months after getting married. I'm afraid people will laugh at me if I tell others about it."

"What a joke! You divorced Liang and married Chunniang right after. People will only say that you are capable and women love you. After Chunniang gets married, you should let me have a grandson as soon as possible. It would be best if I could have two a year. By then, all the men in Yanghe Village will envy you so much. How can this be a joke?" Wang retorted quickly.

Chen Lai Fu compared Chunniang in his mind. She was the mother of two children. She was ugly, had a bad figure, and spoke and acted in an awkward and awkward manner.

Liang Jinyu was a lady from a prominent family. She was well-educated, beautiful, and most importantly, clean.

Whenever Chen Lai Fu thought of Liang Jinyu being pressed under him, he would tremble with excitement.

One is a phoenix in the sky and the other is a pheasant on the ground. It is very clear who to choose.

Chen Laifu's eyes flashed with shrewdness, and he said firmly: "I don't want Chunniang, and I won't divorce her."

Even if he really wants to divorce Liang Jinyu one day, it will only happen when he is tired of her!

Wang was furious that he didn't fight back, so she slapped him on the shoulder and said, "You fool, Chunniang has already agreed, why are you still being so stubborn? I know you like that little whore's pretty face, but what's the point of her being pretty if she can't have children?"

"If you really don't want to divorce your wife, that's fine." Old Man Chen took a sip of water, paused, and said, "Don't wealthy families have many wives and concubines? At worst, you can let Chunniang be your concubine. She will agree."

"Bah, Chunniang is not stupid. Calling her a concubine sounds nice, but in fact, she is no different from a servant. How could Chunniang agree to this?" Wang rolled her eyes at Old Man Chen.

Old man Chen said with a long face, "She can barely afford a meal, how can she be picky! Okay, this matter is settled, go to the village chief tomorrow and tell him that Chunniang agrees. As for the two children, since they are surnamed Wang, give them to the Wang family, our family will not take care of them, the better to do it sooner rather than later, hurry up and do it."
