Cui Zhiping died in an extremely undignified manner.
He stripped himself naked, revealing everything that should and shouldn't be shown, including a certain embarrassing area.
In places of pleasure, some people naturally have a different "insight" than ordinary people.
Everyone knows what others are like and what he is like.
Soon enough, news of Cui Zhiping's inability to make a living spread.
His place is practically nonexistent, how can that be acceptable?
Suddenly, some of the courtesans realized why he spent his days drinking and carousing with his cronies, and would fall asleep as soon as he got into his room.
It turns out it doesn't work!
That's not all.
With Cui Zhiping's death, all his despicable deeds were exposed, making him universally despised.
He was addicted to gambling and even helped others commit evil deeds for gambling money, which made him truly hateful.
Once the officials intervened, all of Cui Zhiping's crimes were exposed.
His crime was kept secret from his family, and the fact that his family members were not held responsible is already an act of leniency.
However, he violated the law. According to the law, no memorial service was allowed after his death, and no funeral was required. He was taken away and buried not long after.
Cui Zhiping's elderly parents were so ashamed that they were being insulted behind their backs, they quickly and secretly returned to their hometown.
As for their daughter-in-law, they originally wanted to sell her, but someone interfered, so they didn't dare.
Anyway, Cui Zhiping is dead, and his reputation is still so bad after his death. She is just a woman who is pointed at and gossiped about every day. She is left to fend for herself and won't live much longer.
When the elderly couple returned home with malicious intent, they discovered that their land had long been seized by local bullies.
Everyone knows their only son is gone, so they seized his land, which is considered an act of justice.
The elderly couple cried out to heaven and earth in vain, and they could not even get back the land they had left to grow their own food. Their old age was destined to be bleak.
Jiang Tian, on the other hand, suffered a lot of gossip and rumors.
Her husband was useless, and she worked like a slave at home every day, so naturally others felt sorry for her.
Sympathy is one aspect, but wanting to see a good show is another.
They all wanted to see how she, a widow, would survive.
Some even harbored ulterior motives and sent word through others that they intended to take Jiang Tian as a concubine.
Jiang Tian is good-looking and has an outstanding temperament. If she can't be a wife, being a concubine wouldn't be bad either.
Upon receiving the news, Xiao Sheng let out a cold laugh. That very night, those families who planned to take concubines had their teeth knocked out.
Xiao Sheng, after hesitating for several days, also decided to show himself.
He feared something unexpected might happen if he continued to hide.
To his surprise, just as he was planning to choose an auspicious day to appear, someone knocked on his door the day before.
Xiao Sheng didn't react at first; his expression stiffened. "Who are you talking about?"
Xiao Lingzi was even more confused than him: "Grandpa...it's that Jiang lady next door!"
Xiao Sheng's mind went blank, and the next second he shouted, "Quickly, help me change my clothes!"
At this moment, he was very glad that he had prepared new clothes to see Jiang Tian, which came in handy.
Otherwise, just changing clothes would take him an hour.
Fifteen minutes later.
Xiao Sheng sat in the lobby, his hands and feet numb.
With the help of a servant, Jiang Tian slowly walked up to him.
The moment Xiao Sheng met her gaze, his heart began to race.
Sure enough, even after being reborn, she was still herself.
That aloof and distant temperament remains unchanged.
"Greetings, young master."
Xiao Sheng asked nervously, "What brings you here so late at night?"
Jiang Tian's gaze was calm, and her words almost made Xiao Sheng lose his composure: "Several days ago, you moved here and have been secretly watching me every day. You must have had feelings for me. Now that my husband is dead and I can't stay in this house for long before the officials take it back, I have nowhere else to turn."
"Therefore, I have come specifically to beg you to take me in."
