The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 96 The Love Rival Comes ([-])

According to the etiquette among the nobles, after Ashina came to Cui's house, he first went to the Rongshou Hall to visit the old lady, chatted with the old lady for a while, and then went to the main hall of the middle courtyard, and then went to the big lady. Say hello.

After coming out of the main hall, they went to the west garden of the main hall, which is the residence of Cui Yanbo and his wife.

Now the family is in charge of the eldest wife, Mrs. Wang, and Ashina will come to visit and will stay overnight, so she must inform the mistress of the house.

Fortunately, there were a lot of prey in Ashina's ox cart. Although he came in a hurry and had no time to buy gifts, the fresh venison, hare, and bear fat were not too shabby to give as gifts.

After paying a visit to the three generations of the Cui family's mistresses one by one, Xiao Nan led Ashina to her Chenguangyuan in a Xi chariot.

"Huh? Have you cleaned up the yard again?"

Ashina looked at the brand-new main entrance of Chenguangyuan, and seemed to have thought of something, leaned into Xiao Nan's ear, and whispered, "Hey, Qiao Mu, tell me the truth, what happened? Not only did you change your temper, It's so lukewarm, even the yard has been completely refurbished. It can't be—"Something bad happened, right?

For example, someone died in the yard?Or is there something disgusting?

All kinds of private scenes in the inner house suddenly appeared in Ashina's mind, and the more he thought about it, the more he frowned.

Seeing her twisted facial features, Xiao Nan said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, hehe, let's talk about it after using evening food. Hey, let me tell you, this time you are lucky, my mother will give it to me I sent two excellent chefs, who cooked excellent dishes, especially the roasted piglet, which is the most authentic. The skin is crispy, the meat is delicious, and it is fragrant and smooth. Once you eat it, you will never forget it. .”

Ashina looked at Xiao Nan suspiciously, saw that her eyes were clear, and she did not dodge under his gaze, so she knew that she hadn't said anything to evade, so she temporarily let go of her heart, and decided to eat her well before carefully eating her. torture.

Nodding his head, Ashina said bluntly: "Then serve a few more special dishes. It just so happens that I still have prey in the ox cart, so let the cook just pick it out. By the way, Cui Ba, he is now Have you moved back? Or continue to fool around with that lowly maid?"

Mentioning the stinky man who wronged his friend, Ashina's pretty face darkened, and he asked in a not very polite tone.

Xiao Nan smiled slightly, and said in a very casual tone: "I demolished the 'inner study' where he lived temporarily by rebuilding the courtyard, and now he can only move back to the main courtyard. But you have seen my current situation, He is currently living in the East Wing, and has four maidservants given by my aunt to 'serve' in turn."

When it comes to serving the word, Xiao Nan couldn't help but sneer.

Seeing Ashina looking at her blankly, she smiled bitterly and said: "Ah, after this incident, I have finally figured it out. I might as well count on my child instead of relying on that man." .”

"Qiao Mu..." Ashina hugged Xiao Nan's arm tightly, looked at her with distressed eyes, and asked, "You, let him go completely? No longer adore that handsome Cui Jiayu in white clothes like a banished fairy." Lang?"

"Admiration? Hehe, I was defeated by this 'admiration',"

Xiao Nan obviously smiled, but the laughter made people feel chilled. Her eyes fell on the shaking car curtains, and she said in an erratic voice: "Ah, what is admiration? Admiration is Cui Yulang standing on the high platform, even if you look at I am also so high above; while I stand on the ground and look up humblely."

As he spoke, Xiao Nan didn't know whether he was thinking of his own tragic ending in the previous life, or the deity's despair towards Cui Youbo, and said with a miserable smile: "In order to admire him, I abandoned my noble status. In order to cater to him, I abandoned I have followed A Niang's teachings... I have done everything I can and cannot do, but what did he retaliate to me?"

"Qiao Mu, stop talking, I understand, I know that you have changed a lot for him, and also suffered a lot of grievances,"

Ashina couldn't stand it anymore, she turned her head, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a choked voice: "Obviously you can marry a good man who is a hundred times better than Cui Ba, and obviously you can live in your in-law's house with a straight back, Obviously... well, in the end, not only did he not appreciate it, but he also blamed you for being less gentle and careless than the concubine. Pooh, we are majestic county lords, how can we act like those lowly maidservants who are not on the stage?"

Xiao Nan was still immersed in his own thoughts, and continued: "Ah, you don't understand, when I lay helpless on the cold ground, when I looked at that man (Cui Ba OR Li Jing) and that cheap maid ( When Ah Jin OR Li Jing Chong concubine) was flirting in front of my eyes, I didn’t dare to fix them uprightly like other first wives because of “admiration” and “love”. Ah, you don’t know how it feels It hurts so much, it hurts so much that my heart is about to be torn apart, and it hurts so badly that I can't even breathe."

The strong sorrow and despair pressed down on Xiao Nan's head like a dark cloud, and Ashina who was sitting by the side could clearly feel the suffocating gloom.

"Qiao Mu, you, what have you been through? Damn it, it's that damned Cui Ba, what did he do to you?"

Ashina was taken aback by Xiao Nan's sudden release of despair, quickly shook Xiao Nan's arm, and kept asking: "Qiao Mu, tell me quickly, ah? What's wrong with you?"

Shaken by her like this, Xiao Nan finally came back to his senses, the haze surrounding him gradually dissipated, and Xiao Nan's mood calmed down.

Seeing Ashina's face flushed with anxiety, her heart warmed up, she took her hand behind her back, and shook her head lightly, "It's all over, Ah, don't worry, I'm really fine now. Hehe, actually, I should thank them , if it weren’t for them, I still can’t wake up now, and I won’t make up my mind.”

"What determination?" Ashina saw a flash of firm light in Xiao Nan's eyes, strangely, that gaze actually calmed her impatient heart.

"That is, before loving Cui Ba, love yourself first, and everyone who cares about me and loves me."

Xiao Nan glanced out of the window and saw that he had almost arrived at the atrium of Chenguangyuan, so he temporarily ended the topic, twisted Ashina's nose with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Of course, there is also my best friend, Ah .”

Ashina also noticed that Xi's car had stopped slowly, knowing that he had reached the place, he hurriedly held on to the conversation, and echoed: "Hmph, you have a conscience, and you know that I care about you most."

While joking, Xi Che finally arrived at the atrium, and Hong Hua, who was following the car outside, called out, "Lady, we're here!"

"Oh, I see!"

Xiao Nan responded softly, letting Ashina go down first, and with the support of Yuzan and Ashina, he got out of the Xi chariot.

"The servant girl has met the county master of Dingxiang."

Yulian rushed up to greet her, and when she saw the friend of her county magistrate, she hurried forward to salute.

"Wai Li, Yulian, I heard from your county lord that the princess has sent two cooks here, all of whom are excellent in craftsmanship. You should work harder, lest your county lord change your mind and throw you away. to the side."

Ashina and Xiao Nan are close friends, and they are also very familiar with her four maids, and they can joke with each other at will.

"Go, what does it mean to change your mind? If you don't know how to use idioms, don't use them indiscriminately." Xiao Nan knocked her down with his arm, and said coquettishly: "You talk nonsense all day long, I really should let your sister-in-law take care of you."

After Ashina's mother passed away, Ashinazhong did not continue, and all the internal affairs of the family were taken care of by his daughter-in-law.

The historian's sister-in-law is also in charge of Ah's discipline.

"Well, I hope my sister-in-law can take care of me, but with her temperament," Ashina shook her head. She really didn't understand. My sister-in-law's family is also a family of generals, and my sister-in-law's father and brother are both military officers. She has become what some sour literati call a good wife.

She is soft and gentle, speaks in a soft voice, obeys the four virtues all day long, and reviews the women's precepts and biographies all the time, so that the concubines at home are not afraid of her... Sigh, forget it, I really don't want to mention her.

"Actually, what your sister-in-law did is not a bad idea."

It's good to be a good wife, Xiao Nan used to look down on those women who took the initiative to take concubines for their husbands.

But after the last life, Xiao Nan discovered that sometimes the reason why a woman chooses to be a good wife is because she regards being a wife as a profession.

To put it more modernly, it is to regard the parents-in-law and elders as major shareholders, the husband as a partner, and the concubine as a working girl.

After everyone in the wealthy family has a clear position, the "good wives" only need to deal with the big shareholders, win over the partners, and strictly manage the working girls.

The specific candidates for these people can be changed, but it is easier to dismiss the migrant girls than to fire the majority shareholders and partners.

And the biggest advantage of being a good wife is that she will not be hurt by her husband's betrayal and can maximize the benefits she gets.

Ashina doesn't think so, after all, she is still a young lady who has not left the court, and although she sometimes discusses some restricted-level issues with Xiao Nan, she still has the most pure and beautiful girls for marriage and her future husband. fantasy.

In Ashina's view, the elder sister-in-law's initiative to push the elder brother to the concubine is a sign of disliking the elder brother. If it were herself, she would not push her husband to other women.

Slowly speaking, she took the initiative to push it out, that is, when she saw someone hooking up with her husband, or having plans for her husband, she would immediately whip her whip to whip him.

Seeing her disapproval, Xiao Nan knew what she was thinking at the moment, took her arm, and said: "The whip can't solve the problem."

"Then if you see Cui Ba hooking up with those lowly maidservants, wouldn't you be angry? Don't you want to give them a hard blow?"

Ashina pouted, and supported Xiao Nan with his backhand, and the two walked up the steps affectionately and hand in hand.

"I'm not angry, I don't want to, because it's not worth it." Xiao Nan said calmly.

"Cut, I don't believe it." Even if Qiao Mu doesn't like Cui Ba anymore, a woman will definitely be angry when she sees her man being hooked up by another woman.

"We can try."

Xiao Nan jokingly responded, but she must be possessed by a crow's mouth today, as soon as the two of them entered the far gate, they saw Cui Bazheng coming out with a young woman affectionately.

Xiao Nan didn't ignore it, Cui Ba's eyes were full of love and affection when he looked at the woman.

PS: An elder of a relative’s family in a certain Sa passed away. I went to attend the funeral today. The funeral in the countryside is very cumbersome, and I came back late. I can only do one update today, and I will continue the second update tomorrow. Please continue to support me!

Another PS: Although the funeral is cumbersome, a certain Sa has gained a lot: I finally know that the sackcloth and the filial staff are like magic horses.
