"Sister Xiao He was well-behaved in her childhood, but the Weng family's parents never treated her kindly. They didn't hit her, but they looked at her with disdain and criticism. Living under the same roof, Brother Weng received all the warmth and affection, while Sister Xiao He only received the cold shoulder. Even the whole city knew that the Weng family had such an unruly and unfilial daughter."
"In this way...it will be difficult to get married, right?" Lei Mulan said.
She also had a bad reputation because she was playful and fond of martial arts, unlike a gentle and virtuous girl like Lin Ruoqiu.
However, her parents were very good to her and never felt that she was inferior to her brothers just because she was a girl.
"Yes, it's difficult. I remember that every matchmaker who came to our house was scolded away by Sister Xiaohe. But Sister Xiaohe is indeed capable. The Weng family is not an official, and the family has some industries, and many of them are managed by her. In comparison, the Weng brother is much more incompetent, but he is good at flattering and often steals the credit from Xiaohe."
"Later, a family knew she had some abilities and wanted to hire her."
"That man was indeed quite good, a handsome man with a well-proportioned appearance. I remember that Sister Xiaohe was quite pleased with him at the time. She even seemed to have come to terms with it. She stopped arguing with her brother and became gentler towards her parents, no longer arguing."
Obviously, she had put away all her former sharpness, but she died in the end.
"Could it be that the man appears to be a good person but is actually a scum?" Lei Mulan asked hurriedly.
She had heard a lot of such things. Some men would pretend to be gentlemen in order to deceive people into marriage, but they were actually very dirty and vile behind the scenes!
"No, even after they got engaged, Sister Xiaohe rarely saw him. She told me that she had been vying for her parents' attention since she was a child, and she was already exhausted both physically and mentally. She simply didn't have the energy to be infatuated with anyone. She just thought this guy was okay, and that after getting married, she wouldn't have to stay in the local area, and could get away from her previous obsession."
"Oh right, at that time, her brother had a child, and she probably realized that there were too many people she couldn't compete with. Before, there was only the brother from the Weng family, but in the future, there would be her nephews and nieces, and she would always be the one who had to wait in line..."
Lin Ruoqiu thought of the past and felt sorry for Weng Xiaohe.
But if it were her, she would probably never be able to be so fierce.
Just like her younger brother, he is the only child of the Lin family and the one she will never be able to compare to.
Even before she got married, she was willing to risk her life to protect her younger brother in order to live up to her parents' spirits in heaven.
"But she has thought it through, why would she commit suicide?" Lei Mulan couldn't understand.
"Is there anything else about her?" Xiao Cunyu also had some questions.
"There's one more thing..." Lin Ruoqiu hesitated, but still said seriously, "After she passed away, I heard my mother say that she was too petty. It was just some old things, why did she have to get to the bottom of it... Why couldn't she just live her life in a muddle? She even said that after getting married and having children, the past wouldn't matter anymore. Who knew she wouldn't be able to bear it..."
"I didn't quite understand it at that time. I wanted to ask in detail, but my mother didn't say anything more." Even now, Lin Ruoqiu still doesn't know what happened back then.
Xiao Cunyu looked at the ghost and found that she sneered.
There's a cool breeze around here.
Xiao Cunyu felt that this ghost seemed to have died of anger, and it looked like a fighter with an unconvinced look.
