Chapter 460: Parents' Dreams

"Yan'er, you are my dear. Don't you know why I want to marry her? Given your status, I am willing to take you as my concubine. It is already a big concession from my parents. But don't worry, even if I marry Chen Hongxia, I will not touch her. I marry her just to please my mother and to show it to others so that my parents can save some face.

When our son is born, we will tell everyone that he is hers. In fact, you will raise the child. Although you are not allowed to see people now, once Chen Hongxia comes into the house, I can tell everyone that I have taken you as my concubine. You can leave whenever you want in the future. I will not control you. As long as you are happy, Yan'er, my heart is with you."

In the yard, Zhang Jiabao embraced his concubine Yan'er and looked at her lovingly.

Then he continued, "Except for you, I don't care about anyone else. When my parents die, I will divorce her or let her die of illness. Then I will make you my legal wife. Our son is always the legitimate son. You just have to be patient until my parents get old. Then you will be able to get through it. You can only endure for another ten years at most. You know..."

His voice came out from the crack in the door.

It reached Chen Hongxia's ears.

At this moment, her body felt as if she had fallen into an icy river.

A little suffocating.

Zhang Jiabao took a concubine?

That concubine is pregnant?

No wonder......

No wonder she had nightmares every day during this period, and no wonder her parents always appeared in her dreams.

So that's how it is...

She said, why did Zhang Jiabao marry a peasant girl like her? Although she was not ugly, there were girls prettier than her everywhere in the town, so why bother marrying her?

At this moment, Chen Hongxia was extremely grateful that she had made this trip.

Otherwise, after getting married, her fate will be miserable.

From what Zhang Jiabao said just now, she would either be divorced or killed by these two evil men.

In the end, there is no good ending.

After eavesdropping for a while, she turned and left.

When we returned to the village, it was already dark.

"Hongxia, why did you come back just now? It's late at night. Do you want me to worry to death? Why do you always run around and come home only after dark? Where have you been? Tell me, do you have a lover outside?

You tell me honestly, take me to meet him. If he's not bad, I'll find a way to tell grandma that we won't marry into the Zhang family anymore. At worst, I'll go to the Zhang family in person to apologize. As long as you can live well, I'll do anything. But you can't go after them like you are doing now!"

Wang Ruer has already told Chen Tianfeng her inner guess.

That's why he said that.

"Brother, I don't have a lover. I went out today because of something. But you are right. I really can't marry Zhang Jiabao. He did something like that. This marriage will definitely not be possible."

There was no trace of sadness on Chen Hongxia's face.

After she said it, she felt relieved.

"What's wrong? What happened? Tell me, do you want to drive your brother crazy?" Chen Tianfeng was worried about his sister.

See her say that.

More and more anxious.

"Some time ago, I kept dreaming about my parents. In my dreams, they wanted to say something to me, but I couldn't hear them. My parents looked very anxious and were threatening Zhang Jiabao. I thought it was strange. Could it be that my parents didn't want me to marry Zhang Jiabao? I told my eldest sister-in-law that I didn't want to get married.

My eldest sister-in-law told me not to think too much. I knew she didn't believe it. Even my eldest sister-in-law didn't believe it, and my grandfather and grandmother certainly didn't believe it. Brother, tell me, how could I have nightmares every day? I simply went to the town to find Zhang Jiabao, hoping that he would come forward to refuse the engagement, but I heard him talking to his concubine in the yard!"

The two stood at the entrance of the village.

Chen Hongxia pulled her brother to an empty corner and whispered.

"What? You dreamed about your parents? And you dream about them every day? What about the concubine? Zhang Jiabao took a concubine? Why didn't the matchmaker tell you? This beast, could it be that he wants to take advantage of you? No, his family lives a good life and he lives in the town, why does he have to marry you?"

I know! Is he trying to use you as an excuse to cover up the fact that he has a concubine? The background of that concubine must be shameful! Hongxia, don't be afraid, I'm here, don't worry about it, I'll help you solve it."

Chen Tianfeng did not doubt what his younger sister said.

His sister would not lie. They grew up together and he knew what kind of person she was.

Since she said she heard it, it must be true.

Therefore, Chen Tianfeng was so angry that his face turned black.

He wished he could rush to the town right now, break into Zhang's house, and beat Zhang Jiabao up.

"Not only is her status shameful, she is also pregnant. The Zhang family is a respectable family, so they will not let outsiders laugh at them. They are planning to give the child born by this concubine to me and tell others that it was born by me.

Humph, how shameless! Zhang Jiabao said, wait until the two elders of the Zhang family die, then they will kill me, and Zhang Jiabao will promote her to be his legal wife. They live a good life, but I am being plotted against. Brother, no wonder I always dream about my parents. I am afraid that my parents know their conspiracy and come to remind me. It all makes sense when I think about it this way."

Chen Hongxia was terrified.

She didn't know the identity of the concubine.

Since Zhang Jiabao said that she came from a poor family, she must have been either a widow or a slave.

or......

Bastard?

It is very likely that she came from a brothel.

The kind that many people in town have played with.

Otherwise, why would he be so afraid of others knowing that he took a concubine?

The more Chen Hongxia thought about it, the more she felt that her guess might be true.

Both the brother and sister are very smart and not stupid. Chen Tianfeng took his sister home and asked her to explain the whole thing from beginning to end.

That night, Old Chen was so angry that he didn't even eat.

The next morning, the family rushed into the town in great momentum.

Originally, Chen Tianfeng didn't want his sister to go.

Chen Hongxia insisted on going, and there was nothing we could do. She had been as stubborn as a donkey since she was a child, so we could only let her do what she wanted.

"Bang, bang, bang--" As Chen Tianfeng knocked on the Zhang family's door, many people in the alley opened their doors and stuck their heads out to look over.

There was just too much noise and it was almost noon.

"Who is it? The door is broken. Can't you be gentler? You broke my door and you want to compensate me?" Li came out of the kitchen cursing, opened the door, and suddenly froze when she saw the person outside.

"Why are you here? What's the matter? The engagement day hasn't even arrived yet. What are you doing? Why have you come to my house?" Li thought that the Chen family was anxious to get married to her family and marry Chen Hongxia to them as soon as possible.

Therefore, there was contempt in the eyes when they looked at the Chen family.
