Shi Qingluo looked surprised.
She asked what was in her heart, "How could the former Princess Jin have such a friend with her personality?"
Xiao Hanzheng replied, "When Wu was still in her parents' home, her father took in a concubine and promoted that concubine to a co-wife, so the mother and daughter did not live a happy life."
"The daughter of the concubine is trying to snatch away her fiancé."
"Ruan Songling happened to see her at that time. She probably saw what happened to Wu and thought of her past, so she helped."
"And help Wu Shi to marry into the Tu family smoothly."
"With the help of Ruan Songling, Wu also gained the favor of the eldest son of the Tu family, who was not the head of the family at that time."
"After giving birth to two sons in succession, Wu Shi gained a firm foothold in the Tu family."
"So Wu and Ruan Songling are very close."
"After Ruan Songling was divorced by Prince Jin, the Tu family asked the Wu family to stop associating with Ruan Songling in order to protect themselves and not offend Prince Jin."
"But she still helped and supported Ruan Songling privately, perhaps wanting to repay the favor."
Shi Qingluo nodded, "So there is such a thing."
She asked curiously, "Does Wu treat her mother's family the same way as Ruan Songling does?"
Xiao Hanzheng replied: "She used Ruan Songling to constantly suppress her mother's family, but her father did not compromise."
"Before Wu's husband became the head of the Tu family, the Tu family did not participate in suppressing the Wu family."
"In fact, the situation of the Wu family and Ruan Songling's family seems to be the same, but there is a reason why the head of the Wu family favors his concubine and kills his wife."
Xiao Hanzheng paused and continued, "The head of the Wu family and his concubine have actually been engaged since childhood, and they like each other."
"But Wu's mother fell in love with the head of the Wu family, and she tricked the head of the Wu family into falling into the water at a banquet."
"The head of the Wu family rescued Wu's mother who fell into the water, and the two of them had physical contact."
"Wu's family is also a prominent family. They wanted the head of the Wu family to break off the engagement and marry their daughter, but the head of the Wu family refused."
"In the end, Wu's family used all kinds of threats and inducements to force the father of the head of the Wu family to force him to marry Wu's mother."
"But after marrying her, I didn't touch her."
"She used another trick and consummated her marriage with the head of the Wu family and had Wu."
"Master Wu was tricked twice in a row and is extremely annoyed."
"If someone he likes is willing to marry him as a concubine, he will take her in as his wife."
"The head of the Wu family is very capable. He drove his father out and inherited the position of head of the family. He led the Wu family to develop better and better, surpassing Wu's mother's family, and then helped the person he loved become his co-wife."
"He doted on his two children born to his concubine, but was much colder towards Wu. However, he did not abuse or mistreat them. He just ignored the mother and daughter."
"That's why I suffered the hatred from the Wu family."
"Because Wu was the eldest daughter, even though the head of the Wu family hated Wu's mother, he still arranged a marriage for her to the Tu family."
"Wu's sister wanted to snatch her fiancé. She didn't just want to snatch him away, she wanted to avenge her mother."
"After all, Wu's mother broke up the couple in love in this way."
"Wu's sister didn't plan to harm Wu. She just planned to use the same method to drag the Tu family's eldest son into the water."
"However, due to Ruan Songling's intervention, Wu's sister not only failed, but was also rescued by a rogue who jumped into the water and deliberately hugged her in public, destroying her innocence."
"After a few years, I married Wu's sister to the son of a small aristocratic family from another place. With the care of the Wu family, she lived a good life."
Shi Qingluo didn't expect that the Wu family would have such a thing.
"From this perspective, it is understandable that Master Wu favors his concubine and kills his wife."
The head of the Wu family was unlucky as he was favored by Wu's mother and was forced to separate from the woman he loved.
There's nothing wrong with liking someone, but what Wu's mother did was despicable.
Xiao Hanzheng nodded, "Yes, and after the concubine married into the family, Wu's mother caused the concubine to miscarry her first child, which is why the head of the Wu family completely despised her."
"Although the head of the Wu family was cold to Wu's mother before, he did not do anything excessive to suppress her. After all, she is his legal wife in name only."
"Mrs. Wu's mother harmed the concubine, which crossed the bottom line of the head of the Wu family and deprived the wife of her management rights."
"I checked and found that after the concubine entered the Wu Mansion, she did not harm Wu's mother. She was willing to be changed from the main wife to a concubine because she truly loved the head of the Wu family."
"But because the child was miscarried by Wu's mother, they became cruel and began to suppress Wu's mother and daughter."
"Wu's mother is not a victim. Instead, she has been making trouble all the time. She may even be a bit possessed. She doesn't deserve sympathy."
"The Wu family actually framed the concubine and her children at home, but the head of the Wu family did not believe it, so it failed."
"That's why I hate my father even more. Please help me suppress him, Ruan Songling."
"The original head of the Tu family, Wu's father-in-law, died of an acute illness. After her husband inherited the Tu family, she also persuaded him a lot, which helped her suppress her natal family."
"However, because Ruan Songling helped suppress it before, and the Wu family is not as good as the Tu family, many people don't know about the grudges of the previous generation."
"The head of the Wu family was also molded by the Wu family with the help of Ruan Songling into a heartless man who favors his concubine and neglects his wife, does not distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate children, and is ungrateful."
"After Wu became the butcher, she didn't torture the concubines' sons and daughters as she pleased, unlike Ruan Songling. Instead, she pretended to be a loving mother, but deliberately indulged and doted on them."
"The head of the Tu family therefore believed that Wu was a good wife and mother, and gave up all power and stopped interfering in the affairs of the backyard."
"So now in the Tu family, except for her two sons who are relatively successful, all other concubines are useless. Concubines are either timid and weak, or unruly and willful. They are far inferior to legitimate daughters."
Xiao Hanzheng added: "The butcher just met Ruan Songling not long ago. I guess Ruan Songling asked her to invite you to the banquet, and then she wanted to take the opportunity to embarrass you."
"Or figure out how to deal with you."
Ruan Songling and her daughter are both bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong. It was clearly Prince Jin who drove them out of the palace, but he insisted on blaming his young wife.
Not only did he hire a killer, but he also used favors to set up the trap.
If so, why didn't he seek revenge on King Jin? After hearing this, Shi Qingluo couldn't help but sigh, "What kind of person you are, what kind of friends you make."
"It seems that this butcher lady has a bad temper."
The banquet three days later was definitely the Hongmen Banquet.
She stroked her chin and smiled playfully: "That's fine. They want to embarrass me, so I will use them as an example to scare the monkeys."
She is no longer a peasant girl. She is not only the Princess Fubao personally conferred by the emperor, but also the wife of the prefect.
She just didn't believe that the ladies and young ladies from the noble families in North City all wanted to make enemies with her.
