From concubine to child bride
Before he could figure out what was going on, Liu Buqi was hurriedly pulled up from the bed!
She put on the bright red wedding dress and left the house in a daze amidst the snickering eyes of her brother and sister-in-law!
Liu Buqi in the bridal sedan was completely stunned!
Yesterday, because I was twenty minutes late, I was so angry that I told my boss in the company that he was a ruthless capitalist and a Zhou Paopi!
After being brutally abused by his boss, he exchanged all his savings for a pile of instant noodles and was fully prepared to go home and eat while looking for a job!
As a result, when I woke up, I ran to this inexplicable ghost place! It seems that I am getting married for no apparent reason?
This is clearly:
Traveled...traveled through time?!
If it weren't for the inexplicable memory fragments of a person in her mind! Liu Buqi would never believe that all this really happened to her, a "three-no" leftover woman with no advantages in family background, appearance, or education!
The memory in my mind is quite simple. Forty words can describe my short life clearly!
At the age of 26, both parents are dead! Her brother and sister-in-law are ruthless and obsessed with money! She married for good fortune, but she is self-pitying and self-deprecating! She committed suicide by swallowing gold and traveled through time!
"The last four words are your own business! What a pitiful child, forced to marry at such a young age, and to bring good luck to an old man who is who knows whether he is seventy or eighty years old! This is truly the evil old society!"
Liu Buqi, filled with endless emotion, had forgotten that it seemed, as if, certain! From now on, she would be the one to replace the miserable girl and marry the old man for good fortune!
Until the sedan chair entered the mansion, and under the escort of the old nanny, she was sent to a small courtyard decorated with lights and entered an antique house!
Liu Buqi finally reacted with tears in his eyes:
I'm thirty-four! I've barely touched a man's hand, so how could I marry an old, sick man out of nowhere?
What a loss!!
As soon as the old nanny who brought him in left, Liu Buqi immediately lifted the red veil on his head and quickly looked around the room.
Then he went straight to the dazzling red candle, picked up the scissors for cutting the candle wick, and put them under the big red pillow on the bed.
He picked up the wine jug on the table to check it, then walked to the bronze mirror and looked at his appearance!
Although she didn't have the good fortune of traveling through time and space to become a queen or a concubine, this little face, which was obviously still underdeveloped, was definitely a beauty.
"Hehe, not bad, not bad. I'm going to rely on this budding little face to get that old pervert drunk first!"
"He's in his seventies and eighties, and it's not certain whether he can still do that. If he gets drunk, he might have a heart attack and die!"
Fantasizing about the next arrangements, Liu Buqi picked up the fruits, vegetables and pastries beside him, sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, and started eating without any hesitation!
"Only when you're full can you have the energy to fight! Come on!"
I don't know how much time passed. After waiting for a long time but seeing no one coming, Liu Buqi fell asleep in a daze. No! It should be called recuperating!
After a day of inexplicable tossing and turning, I am really tired! In the dream, Liu Buqi naturally has a little brother coming to the door to ask about his well-being!
The sudden crying and shouting outside the door disturbed Liu Buqi's sweet dream!
He tiptoed to the door and pricked up his ears tentatively to listen to what was happening outside. The old lady who brought him in rushed in with a white cloth wrapped around her waist!
"Madam Eighteen, hurry up and change into mourning clothes. The old man has passed away!"
Staring blankly at the mourning clothes in the old nanny's hand, Liu Buqi was surprised for a long time before he realized that he should be the Eighteenth Lady!
"This damn old man already has seventeen wives and he's still taking in concubines! He deserves to die of exhaustion!"
"Wait! What did she say? The old man has passed away! Haha! Then I am free, right?"
Before he could even utter a loud laugh, the old lady who came rushing over blocked his laughter with her hand!
"My little ancestor! If you dare to laugh out loud, the master will bury you and the old man together! Now, you must cry!"
…
Liu Buqi, trying hard to suppress his laughter, was led by the old nanny to the mourning hall that had been set up.
On the left is a huge group with sixty-year-old ladies on top and twenty-eight-year-old girls on the bottom. They should be the other seventeen wives and concubines of Old Master Guitian. Liu Buqi was naturally placed at the end!
On the right should be the old man’s sons, daughters-in-law, and grandsons and granddaughters-in-law. There are only a few of them, but almost all of them have uncontrollable joy on their faces!
Looking at Liu Buqi who arrived last, the master on the right narrowed his eyes slightly, and a woman rushed out from behind him, raised her chin and waved to Liu Buqi.
"Hey, you so-and-so, come over here!"
Liu Buqi was stunned for a long time before he realized that the woman was calling him!
"It's not like I don't have a name! Who are you calling?"
Although he muttered something in his heart, Liu Buqi did not move at all!
"Do you think I'm a fool? We have so many people on our side, and everyone's eyes are on the old lady in the front! It's obvious that there's a fight going on between the two sides. It's better to stay still than to move!"
Seeing that Liu Buqi didn't move, the woman uttered "Huh" and her face instantly became sinister! It seemed that she didn't expect that she couldn't control the little girl who just came in!
Just as she was about to step forward and make a scene, the leading master had already bowed respectfully to the old lady here.
"Auntie, Xi'er's room has been lacking a maid. This young lady has just come into the family and hasn't even met her father. How about she serve as Xi'er's maid?"
The old lady on Liu Buqi's side, upon hearing the master's words, also put down the Buddhist beads she had been holding:
"Master, what are you talking about? Now that the old master is gone, you are the master of the house and your words are final."
"How dare we, the poor people living under someone else's roof, go against your will?"
"But even though this girl is a new concubine, she comes from a family of scholars and is a legitimate concubine. If she is allowed to serve our grandchildren again, and word gets out, the reputation of our mansion will be ruined!"
The master listened to the old lady's words respectfully and complimented her with admiration.
"Yes, yes, yes, Auntie is very thoughtful. This concubine who came to bring good luck to father is indeed not suitable to serve my grandson."
Seeing the smile on the old lady's face getting wider and wider, the master also smiled along.
"But what? The red note only says she's a concubine in the mansion, and doesn't specify she's a concubine for my father to celebrate his wedding. Now it's being transferred to Xier as a child bride to accompany him, which is completely reasonable!"
Seeing the speechless expression of the old lady on his side, Liu Buqi said "tsk, tsk, tsk" and praised the master in his heart!
"Look at this whole family! The old lady is clearly trying to continue the authority of the deceased master! The master is clearly trying to set new rules!"
"It was a bloodless victory! He shut the old lady down with just a few words. Amazing! Really amazing! This flattering expression and demeanor is much more impressive than that of my rich second-generation boss!"
Liu Buqi wished he could sit cross-legged on the ground, grab a handful of popcorn and continue watching the show!
It was obvious that she had completely lost focus and had forgotten that she was the concubine they were talking about!
It was not until the old nanny came up and took her to an extremely remote corner of the mansion that she cried out in grief and anger, "My fate is in my own hands!"
With my feet still flat on my back, I walked into a somewhat dilapidated courtyard.
"Alas, when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head!"
The term "child bride" sounds better than the old man's concubine, right?
