He even sold his own wife to a brothel, which shows how vicious that person is.
[Alas! Sister Lianlian actually has her own true love. ]
old lady:"......"
Oh? She has her own soulmate? Who is that? Xiaoxiao! Tell grandma now.
Yang: “…”
It is better to find the right person if you have one, and avoid that terrible experience which can easily ruin a woman's life.
Seeing that her granddaughter didn't continue talking, the old lady began to chat with Yang in a guiding manner.
"I think Lianlian is still young and can stay for two more years. The little girl will live comfortably in her parents' home for the next few years. She won't have such a good life if she goes to her husband's home."
Yang knew what the old lady meant, so she continued, "Yes! Lianlian is only fourteen, and she will be fifteen next year. It's okay to wait for two years."
[Ah! Grandmother and I are in sync. Sister Lianlian’s true love has not come yet. He is a scholar from another place who came to take the imperial examination. His name is Lu Qingsu.]
The old lady was very happy. Since her granddaughter had mentioned the person's name, she must pay more attention to him. Lu Qingsu was a scholar from another place who came to take the imperial examination. No one knew how the two of them knew each other.
Yang was also surprised. Wasn't Lianlian sold to a brothel? How did Lu Qingsu find her? Why would a scholar like him save a brothel girl?
Chu Xiaoxiao seemed to know what was in their hearts. She spit out saliva and answered their questions in her heart.
[On the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the next year, Lu Qingsu came to the capital. His money was stolen and he was driven out by the innkeeper. He was seen by Sister Lianlian. She was kind-hearted and gave the man ten taels of silver to help him out of his urgent need.]
old lady:"......"
What happened next? Don't stop! Tell grandma about it.
Yang was also anxious. If she hadn't been afraid of disturbing her daughter, she would have wanted to ask.
[Later, Lu Qingsu passed the imperial examination and was assigned to the Hanlin Academy. Sister Lianlian was sold to a brothel and committed suicide by jumping off the building and breaking her leg. The brothel thought she was unlucky and sold her at a low price.]
Hearing this, the old lady's heart shrank into a ball in pain. Her eldest granddaughter was actually living such a miserable life. The Duke of Huguo's Mansion was gone. She felt more miserable than death!
Yang's hands were trembling slightly. Although she knew that she would be dead by then, she was still sad for Lianlian's experience.
[Lu Qingsu was the first to rush over and buy it. He resigned from his official position and returned to his hometown with her, where he opened a private school and lived a hard life.]
He is a man of love and righteousness. This Lu Qingsu must find a way to get him to the Duke of Huguo's mansion. He will come to the capital next Mid-Autumn Festival, right? She made a note of it.
The prime minister's third son, who was originally favored, turned out to be a corrupt person. For such a person, no matter how good his family background was, it would be useless.
Yang: “…”
Lianlian was a lucky person. Although she had suffered a lot, she was still alive. Compared with the Chu family members who were beheaded, she was much better off.
The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law looked at each other, and there was joy in their eyes. As long as they followed Xiaoxiao's wishes, the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion would definitely not be filled with people.
The children in the family will not be tortured and will die one by one.
Except for the one they kicked out of the house, the rest must be safe and sound.
The funeral at Anping Marquis' Mansion was held with great pomp, after all, it was rare for a couple to die on the same day.
When the old marquis and his wife learned that their son and daughter-in-law had both passed away, they dared not speak out even if they had any doubts. The first person to discover this was Liu Qingji, who had blocked all the news.
Even the old marquis didn't know how Liu Jingsi died. The answer Liu Qingji gave was that his father went to visit his seriously ill mother and died suddenly out of heartache and grief.
The old marquis did not investigate in detail. Many facts could not stand up to scrutiny, and there were two half-dead people in the family.
He knew very well that his son's deeds must have been discovered, which was why his eldest grandson took the initiative. Looking at his eldest grandson who was full of life and the second grandson who looked sick and dying and Feng Yuying, what else could he not understand?
The Anping Marquis Mansion eventually fell into the hands of the eldest grandson.
Well, the eldest grandson is the crown prince, and there is nothing wrong with him smoothly succeeding his son as the Marquis of Anping. He is old and can't care so much, so he can just enjoy his old age.
Chu Zhilan and Liu Jingsi died on the same day. Outsiders who did not know the truth thought that this was the result of their love and inseparability.
For a while, the story of Anping Marquis' Mansion became known among the people because of this incident.
Only Liu Qingji knew how his parents died. His mother hated his father so much that she stabbed him to death with her own hands.
After the funeral, he became the Marquis of Anping, and many matters in the Marquis's mansion were handed over to him. After getting to know him, I found out that my father had taken refuge with Prince Duan.
He also conspired with the Queen Mother to plot against the Duke of Huguo's Mansion. He did not want to surrender to Prince Duan, and he was not interested in the things happening in the court.
Liu Qingxiang and Feng Yuying, mother and son, did not get the antidote, so Liu Qingji sent someone to put all the medicine prepared in his father's drawer into their food.
With only ten days left before the Chinese New Year, Liu Qingxiang and Feng Yuying were gone, and the Anping Marquis's Mansion was firmly controlled by Liu Qingji from then on.
He was very grateful to his grandfather for reminding him, otherwise he would have been the one who died.
His mother killed his father to clear the obstacles in his future, but she shouldn't have fallen into the trap and had a big quarrel with her grandfather. She was expelled from the Chu family, and he also had no family to go to.
Her father's false pretenses deceived her all her life, and at the end he even gave her poison. He really couldn't understand why his father was so cruel to them.
Now that my father, second brother, mother and Aunt Feng are all gone, the Empress Dowager should have calmed down, right?
The population of Anping Marquis's mansion is dwindling, with four people gone at once. What else does she want?
The Queen Mother had indeed calmed down. Liu Jingsi not only sacrificed his own life, but also dragged his wife down with him, which was also a blow to the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
But it was not enough, far from enough. What she wanted was for the Duke of Huguo's Mansion to stand on the side of her son, Prince Duan.
Otherwise, there is only one word: destruction.
In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. Our little baby Xiaoxiao was already more than five months old. She was going to attend a dinner at the palace today, and Yang dressed her in a newly made red dress.
There are two small tufts of hair on her head, but unfortunately the hair is too soft, too few and sparse, so the tufts always fall apart.
The old lady couldn't stop laughing when she saw her little granddaughter, who was so fair and tender, with delicate features, and whose black eyes were looking around and sucking her thumb from time to time.
"Oh my! Grandma's dear grandson! Today is New Year's Day, can we not eat our fingers?"
Chu Xiaoxiao sighed bitterly and complained in her heart.
[Grandma! Xiaoxiao is having a hard time! Mom is very strict and doesn’t even let me taste the soup. Every day I can only watch my brothers eat chicken legs, braised pork, and pig’s trotters, while I can only gnaw on my fingers.]
Hearing her talk so pitifully, the old lady couldn't help but burst out laughing. Her precious little fairy! How could she be so cute?
Just because you can't eat delicious food, you mistake your fingers for chicken legs? Braised pork and pig's trotters?
Yang also laughed. The child was too young and it was winter, so she didn't dare to let her eat anything random for fear of giving her a stomachache.
If things really get out of hand, she'll be heartbroken.
