Ye Zhen's surface is gentle and submissive, and she can't help but be weak, but in fact, she is the most competitive. In the early years, she was quite seductive from a few gentry children because of her extraordinary appearance. Even if she falls to the current situation, she will never admit defeat easily. She will take over what should belong to her by any means; what she hates, even if it is destroyed, it cannot be taken away by others.
She was very afraid of Guan Suyi, and now she has to return to the Zhao family, naturally aiming at her wife. The Guan family is very particular about faith, benevolence, and kindness, and they have to forgive others. At that time, not only will she have to take back her wife's position, but she will also have to destroy the other party's reputation and her rank will be abolished, so that she can be completely suppressed.
So at the beginning of the ceremony, she grabbed Zhao Luli and the two children to show her former status, and then went to talk to Guan Suyi, expressing her kindness but secretly provocative. She predicts that the other party is someone who cares about the overall situation and will never compete with her. She can take the initiative to let her help guests today, let her preside over the ceremony tomorrow, dispatch servants the day after tomorrow, and manage the account books the day after... As long as she takes a step back In the future, you will have to step back and hand over the authority in charge of the feeder sooner or later.
Getting an inch has always been Ye Zhen's forte. After seeing Guan Suyi, what she should say and do, she expected it very well, but she never guessed that she would play her cards out of line. Shouldn't she just say a few words, and then let herself help the guests because of her reputation? Seventy-seven and forty-nine days, as long as you show your face and posture, and then find someone to publicize the identity of your original wife, shouldn't the Guan family take the initiative to give in because of morality and ethics
With Zhao Luli to protect her and her two children to help her, she is 90% sure that she will get a wife after the ceremony, and she is 100% sure that Guan Suyi will be ruined and divorced from Zhao within two years. government. But she didn't think that the first thing Guan Suyi told her to do was not to entertain guests, but to change the clothes of the dead.
Has she suffered a little bit since she was a child? Who does not meet her in the palm of her hand and take care of her? How dare she
Ye Zhen was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, but she couldn't take back the foreword, so she couldn't help but look at Zhao Luli.
"Forget it, Zhen'er has a weak temperament, is as timid as a bean, and has never met her younger siblings. She is always afraid. Madam, don't make it hard for her." As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Lu was stunned in his heart. one time.
He suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, what was "Don't be hard on her, madam"? It was as if Madam bullied Ye Zhen on purpose. However, Madam was always quick to talk, and when she had something to say, Ye Zhen ran to ask, just as she was about to change her younger brother and sister's clothes, she spoke directly. She has a strong personality and is very brave, how can she think of how terrifying this kind of thing is for ordinary women
What would she do if she decided that she was deliberately partial to Ye Zhen and made a choice between the two? Thinking of this, Zhao Luli was sweating like a waterfall, and his heart was numb.
The more than half a year of getting along has made him understand his wife's temperament enough. When faced with this kind of thing, ordinary people may argue with reason; or they will compromise; or they will pretend to be generous and then take it easy. But Mrs. Ao Shuang fights snow and does not win big festivals, and will never entangle more than one name; not to mention that the two Tai Shan are both arrogant characters, not only will not discourage, but will immediately ask for decree and leave.
At the beginning, he was humiliated several times, but his wife would not leave; Zhao Jialian was in great trouble, but his wife would not leave; he was behind bars, but his wife would not leave; Ye Zhen just came back, but she left. Others will not scold her for being ruthless, but will praise her for her generosity and beauty as an adult.
In short, if she chooses to stay, she will definitely suffer grievances; if she chooses to leave, she will have a more splendid future. With the power and prestige of the Guan family, and with her own talent and conduct, she is enough to match the best men in Wei.
Zhao Luli's face gradually turned pale, and the joy of reuniting with his ex-wife now turned into confusion and fear. It was only now that he vaguely discovered that he could no longer be separated from his wife, and only briefly imagined the situation without his wife, and his heart was cut like a knife, and the pain went to the bone.
"I didn't mean it that way." He said anxiously, meeting Madam's sarcastic eyes, "I'm not blaming Madam..."
"Dad," Zhao Chunxi interrupted his increasingly dark explanation, and said solemnly, "I will accompany my mother in to change the clothes for the second aunt. Since my mother is as timid as a bean, then kneel outside and recite the scriptures, there is nothing to do. No matter. What was our family's situation when she fell into the water, and what is it like now? Not to mention the guests, I'm afraid she doesn't even recognize her relatives and friends, so how can she help?"
When the words fell, they pressed Ye Zhen's shoulders, which seemed to be gentle, but in fact implied a warning, "Mother, you haven't returned for many years, and there have been many changes in your home. If you want to help, don't be in a hurry, just clarify the situation. I went in, I'll come out to accompany you later, don't be afraid."
Ye Zhen thought she was freed, but was pushed into the pit by her daughter. When a sister-in-law dares to bury his younger brother and sister; when a mother wants her daughter to rush ahead, she is indeed humble and cowardly, and she cannot stand on the stage! Where is this helping her, it is clearly hurting her!
After the funeral, how many people will compare her to Guan Suyi, who is both loyal and brave? How many people will look down on her, and then say the difference between clouds and mud? Ye Zhen had already lost once, and the ending was tragic, and she would never tolerate a second time.
She gritted her teeth and forced a smile, "You are young and your characters are weak, so I'm afraid you won't be able to hold back your bad luck, so don't try to be rude. When my accident happened, my younger siblings hadn't even been through the door. She said goodbye and gave her the last ride. You stay and entertain the guests, I'll go."
Zhao Chunxi cheated on her mother once, and she closed her eyes as soon as she saw it, and watched her enter the mourning hall with a blank expression. Where is she still the ignorant, superficial and restless little girl she used to be? The Zhao family has experienced ups and downs several times, she has also experienced ups and downs, and followed her stepmother to learn the six arts of the gentleman and the common affairs of the middle class, and her heart has long been cleaned up.
She is more and more greedy for the quiet and warm years, and doesn't like the intrigue battles in the house. Before she knows it, her temperament has gradually moved closer to her stepmother. Anyone can say the words "to help each other in the same boat", but my mother can't! Because she is the culprit!
Thinking of Ye Zhen's selfish and greedy nature and vicious methods, she was full of worry, stared at her father's eyes, and asked bluntly, "Mother is back, how do you plan to accommodate her?"
"She will always be the mistress of Zhao's house, so what about placement?" Zhao Luli's voice was hoarse, "Your mother is as fierce as fire. If I propose to have a wife, she will immediately..."
Because he was full of fear of the ending, he didn't dare to speak further, and paused for a while before saying, "If you let Zhen'er be a concubine, you will become concubines and concubines, and it is absolutely impossible. I'm not afraid of your jokes, I don't have any rules now. If..." If Ye Zhen didn't come back, he wouldn't have to face such a dilemma.
He was reluctant to let him let go of his wife, and he couldn't bear to let him treat his ex-wife harshly. Besides, demoting his ex-wife would mean ruining a pair of children. No matter what he did, it was wrong.
"Let me think about it, let's finish the funeral now." He had no choice but to delay.
Zhao Chunxi's face turned pale for a moment, and he murmured, "Dad, let's get ready first. The Zhao family is afraid that they won't be able to keep their mother. She is so broad-minded and arrogant and free, how can she be your wife?"
At this moment, Zhao Luli almost burst into tears, and finally understood what his two wives before and after meant to him. Ye Zhen is a regret, an obsession, which can be cherished and forgotten, but Guan Suyi is his present and future, and the person he wants to spend his life with.
As time went by, he went from being defensive to hating her, from hating to understanding, paying attention to her because of understanding, and admiring her because of her attention. He admires her, admires her; trusts her, relies on her. He and she experienced the rise and fall of the family together, the death of their relatives, and finally from mutual opposition to mutual support.
They could have lived with and beautifully for a lifetime, instead of suddenly separated and divided things. She is still so young, and it won't take long for her to marry a second time, and the other party will be like herself, increasingly attracted to her, from strangeness to understanding to deep love. They will melody and melody, raise children together, and eventually grow old together and merge into one cave.
Zhao Luli's pale complexion slowly turned to ashen, and his clenched fists made a sound of broken bones, obviously suffering from the incomparable pain of landing on the ground.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Chunxi felt sad and helpless in his heart, soothed in a hoarse voice, "Dad, don't think about it, just let it be. Mother wants to leave, how can you keep her?"
"Why can't she stay? If she is pregnant with the Zhao family's heir, can't she stay?" Zhao Luli suddenly let go of his hands and laughed in a low voice, "I was wrong. I should treat her well and let her give birth to a child for me. Doing the math, if I had conceived on the night of the wedding, it would be six or seven months now. She has a big belly, where can she go? Even if it is Liping's wife, she It is a noble order, far more noble than Zhen'er, and it can be endured in the face of the child. I will make up for it in every possible way, take care of it in every possible way, and will not make her suffer any grievances."
Speaking of this, a decisive look loomed between his brows. The mourning period is three months. In any case, he has to delay the full four months, and then find a way to consummate the marriage with his wife. Even if she is not pregnant with a child and loses her virginity, the chances of her and Li remarrying will be greatly reduced.
It was really despicable to do so, but he couldn't care less. In order to keep his wife, he can do anything.
When he wanted to understand Guan Qiao, the depression on his face dissipated a lot, and he ordered his son and daughter to take good care of Mu Mu, while he walked to the mourning hall and listened to the movement inside through a thick curtain. No coincidence or no coincidence, a high-pitched scream suddenly came from the inner hall, which made him almost rush in, and the guests sitting around the sacrificial table had already got up one after another and looked around.
He was about to send a few servants to investigate, but was bumped into his arms. He lowered his head and saw that it was Ye Zhen, and quickly pushed her away, then raised his hands to show his innocence.
