Chapter 48: Fake Heiress, Really Sickly Girl (Thirty-Two)
Gu Qingcheng pretended to be embarrassed and looked at Han Ding, and whispered, "It turns out that Zhou Yi is really not a flesh and blood of the Zhou family."
Han Ding was stunned for a moment: That’s it?
He thought that this little fool had noticed something strange about the Zhou family.
Unexpectedly, she is still so silly.
"No wonder mother has always been so cold to Zhou Yi. It was better before Zhou Ren was born. After all, Zhou Yi was the only son in mother's name."
"With Zhou Ren, my mother only pays attention to him."
Gu Qingcheng tilted her head and talked about the abnormality that she had discovered a long time ago.
Han Ding's eyes flickered.
Although he only came into contact with Li today.
But he keenly discovered that this woman was the same as his mother and sister - smart and self-righteous!
At most, Li seems to be smarter, at least he knows how to disguise himself.
And enough patience.
Tsk tsk, planning ahead and enduring for more than ten years.
As for the Zhou family, from the old lady to Zhou Qi, they were all fools and were manipulated by Li.
Han Ding even suspected that not only Zhou Yi, but also "Zhou Qingcheng" might not be Li's daughter.
By the way, ever since Han Ding heard Peilan mention that Li was still pregnant, an imperial physician diagnosed that she was pregnant with twins, Han Ding had made a guess.
Where can I find such a miraculous doctor with superb medical skills?
Can you tell how many babies are in your belly just by feeling the pulse? [Perhaps, from the beginning of her pregnancy, Li had planned to switch the baby for the sake of "being foolproof".]
[However, although Li is calculating, he is not a cruel person. ]
She wanted to have a son, but she would not give up her own daughter.
Therefore, Han Ding boldly speculated that
Li was worried that she would not be able to give birth to a son in the future, so she spread the news early.
She didn't know how she managed to move the imperial physician and get him to cooperate with her in lying.
She announced that she was pregnant with twins.
When giving birth, if she gave birth to a boy, she would try to bring back a girl to make a boy and a girl.
In this way, it would be a good omen and would not affect the status of his son.
As for baby girls, even if they grow up, at most they will be given a dowry.
If I raise him well, I can also find a good in-law for my family and provide some help to my son.
If you are unlucky enough to give birth to a daughter, then have a boy.
Let her surpass the favored concubine and let the baby boy temporarily take the position of the crown prince.
She then worked hard to recuperate and try to give birth to another boy.
If you really can't give birth to a boy, then just give up.
It was enough for her to just be honored.
As for the fact that the title of the Zhou family failed to be passed on to the Zhou family's bloodline, what does it have to do with her? If God opens his eyes, let her give birth to her own son.
When her son grows up and becomes independent, she will try to uncover the mystery of his origins, and then -
Things will be like they are now.
As expected, Zhou Yi lost his position as crown prince, and Zhou Ren, as the second legitimate son, naturally became the new crown prince.
Li lost nothing and took control of the entire Jingning Marquis Mansion.
Oh, that's not right!
There is also Zhou Baozhu.
She really seemed to have been taken away by mistake.
But, she is most likely Li's biological daughter.
With the existence of Zhou Baozhu, Han Ding's guess doesn't make sense.
[Is Li not as conscientious as I thought? Did she really switch her own daughter? ]
[But, this doesn't make sense. She exchanged Zhou Baozhu for Zhou Yi, which is easy to understand. But what about Zhou Qingcheng? ]
[Her appearance is not at all similar to that of the couple Li and Zhou Qi.]
[Look at Li's attitude towards Zhou Qingcheng. She doesn't look like a loving mother treating her own daughter! ]
The more Han Ding thought about it, the more suspicious he felt.
He suddenly felt that this old story of the Zhou family was quite interesting.
[Well, Han Nai has almost dealt with the matter. I'm really bored, so I might as well check it out.]
Han Ding raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a dangerous smile.
The reason he would investigate the Zhou family’s “past” was not because he valued the Zhou family so much.
He was simply curious.
Moreover, he wanted to use facts to test whether his guess was correct.
Fortunately, Gu Qingcheng and Huoshui didn't know what Han Ding was thinking.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Otherwise, this person would definitely complain: He is really a psychopath! His train of thought is really different from that of normal people.
In fact, it's not just Han Ding, even Madam Wei is the kind of person who changes her attitude as easily as turning the pages of a book.
When Yu Lian was still Han Ding's "true love", Mrs. Wei wanted to marry Zhou Qingcheng home immediately.
She looked after her daughter-in-law Qingcheng with great favor and treated her as her own daughter.
However, on the day Gu Qingcheng entered the house, Yu Lian's "disguise" fell off, and she had no relationship with Han Ding at all.
Han Ding was not a lustful bastard, nor did he have a concubine's eldest son. Although he was branded as a fool, the dignitaries in the capital could not help but sigh, "He is kind" while laughing at him.
Although it was still not a nice word, people felt more sympathy than disgust towards him.
This was enough to satisfy Mrs. Wei.
Her son was no longer a problem, and she was displeased with her daughter-in-law Gu Qingcheng, who had a flawed family background and was in poor health.
As soon as the novelty of a few days wore off, Mrs. Wei started to find fault.
The mother-in-law only has a few tricks to control her daughter-in-law:
First, set rules!
Madam Liang came to Qingsong Courtyard in person to convey the order to Gu Qingcheng, "Madam, the Crown Prince has said that starting tomorrow, you will go to the main hall to pay your respects morning and evening."
Gu Qingcheng quickly said yes obediently, "It's all my fault. I should have gone to pay my respects to my mother earlier."
Seeing that Gu Qingcheng's attitude was quite respectful, Nanny Liang nodded with satisfaction.
After returning, she reported the truth to Mrs. Wei.
Madam Wei nodded, "I hope she really follows the rules and isn't just pretending!"
"Alas, it's also my fault for being too impatient. If I had waited a little longer, maybe I wouldn't have to marry the daughter of the Zhou family."
It would be bad enough that his identity is unknown, but his health is also so poor.
Madam Wei forgot that she chose Zhou Qingcheng in the first place because Zhou Qingcheng was beautiful enough and because she was weak.
She compared her appearance with Yu Lian and chose a daughter-in-law who was "better" than her in every way.
But now, Yu Lian is no longer a threat, and Han Ding is no longer bewitched by some cheap woman.
Madam Wei felt that Zhou Qingcheng's poor health was a huge disadvantage.
She began to regret it and thought about how to "get rid of" Zhou and find a new wife for Han Ding who was from a higher family and had a better body! Madam Liang: ...
She couldn't interrupt this topic casually.
Because the person who went to "see" Zhou Qingcheng at that time was none other than her.
Nanny Liang understood her own wife and knew that she liked to settle accounts with the afterlife.
She was also worried that the lady would get angry at her, so why would she just strike up a conversation and then anger Madam Wei again?
Madam Wei just complained casually, she had no intention of hearing any response from Nanny Liang.
Anyway, she already has a plan -
Be good with Zhou. She is weak in body and must be sensitive in mind.
If she goes through this a few more times, maybe she will be "unlucky" enough to die first.
Gu Qingcheng: ...You are thinking about PEACH. I still want to spend the rest of my life in the Han family, eating well, drinking well and recuperating.
The first round of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law PK has begun——
PS: Someone has guessed the truth before. The inspiration for this story comes from the complaints I made when I was a kid watching The Plum Blossom Mark: Why did they have to replace the daughter? Couldn't they just announce that they had twins? In ancient times, there was no B-ultrasound, and giving birth was like opening a blind box. As long as you bite it to death, who can say anything?
