Chapter 109: Being Tortured (2/2)



It’s as if I have suffered a great injustice!

Damn scumbag!

If the original wife, Mrs. Jiang, knew that the child she gave birth to at great risk of her life was harmed like this by her husband and others, she would probably be buried in her coffin. 】

Gua Gua: [Even after Jiang Mengli was harmed like this, the people in the Jiang residence are still not satisfied and have no intention of letting her go.

A few days ago, the Wen family heard that the son of Shangshu Langzhong had died, and they were arranging a ghost marriage for the dead man's son.

Wen started to think about it.

Wen took the initiative to find the wife of Shangshu Langzhong and gave them Jiang Mengli's birth date and horoscope.

Just like that, Wen was betrothed by Jiang Mengli to a dead man. 】

In the video, Wen ordered people to cover Jiang Mengli's head with a pillow, pretending that Jiang Mengli had faked her death. They immediately sent Jiang Mengli to the Shangshu Langzhong Mansion.

Anyway, Jiang Mengli is an insignificant person, so if she dies, she dies.

If Jiang Jingxuan asked about it later, they would say that Jiang Mengli eloped with a strange man.

They have thought of a way out.

Song Yaoyao: [Wen committed murder intentionally!

By the way, Jiang Mengli had suffered so much, why didn't the Wen Clan let her go? 】

Gua Gua: [There are two reasons. One is to make friends with the Shangshu Langzhong Mansion and pave the way for my own children in the future.

Another reason: of course it was for Jiang Mengli’s mother’s dowry.

When Mrs. Jiang got married, her family lost a lot of farms, shops, and banknotes.

After Mrs. Jiang died, Wen came into the family and all these things fell into Wen's hands.

The excuse was: Jiang Mengli was too young, so he was kept for her temporarily.

Jiang Mengli has grown up and is old enough to get married. If she gets married, these things will inevitably have to be returned. How could Wen be willing to accept that?

Wen wanted to completely monopolize the dowry, so she came up with this idea. 】

Song Yaoyao: [You ignorant woman, the Tianfeng Dynasty stipulated that a woman’s dowry belongs to the woman and her husband’s family cannot use it. The woman’s children have the right of inheritance.

If a woman has no children, her dowry must be returned to her parents' family.

That is to say, even if Jiang Mengli died, his mother's dowry would have to be returned to Jiang Mengli's maternal grandparents.

How could she, a step-wife, have the nerve to take over someone else's things? 】

Guagua: [It’s indeed quite ignorant.

Jiang Mengli's maternal grandparents always thought that with the dowry, their granddaughter would have an easier life in the Jiang family, but they didn't expect it to become her death warrant.

Speaking of this, I remembered something. 】

Song Yaoyao: [What? ]

Guagua: [It’s about burying people alive.]

The Shangshu Lang family loved their son very much. After his death, the Shangshu Lang family arranged a secret marriage for him and buried twenty living people with him.

Song Yaoyao exclaimed:

[Guagua, you mean, in addition to Jiang Mengli, they also used 20 living people to bury with him? ]

Guagua: [Yes.

They bought 20 living people, 10 men and 10 women, all of them were twelve or thirteen years old.

While they were alive, they were forced to drink mercury...

After they die, they still look the same as when they were alive, and you can't tell that they are dead at all. 】

Song Yaoyao: [What about these 20 people? Why didn’t I see them in the funeral procession? ]

Guagua: [Among those paper figures, some are like this.

The Shangshu and his men were afraid of being discovered and buried with living people, so they dressed up the 20 people as paper figures and mixed them in with the paper figures.
