Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 431
"Qiao Xinyu is still young, and your father is also in his prime. It is a good thing to have more children, but..." Chen paused, "She was so confused that she wanted Qiao Xinyu to have a son to replace Yan'er. Take over Chu Mansion."

If it was Chu Yan, it would be fine. No matter how unconvinced, Mrs. Chen also knew that her son was not as outstanding as Chu Yan. Besides, Chu Yan was more worthy than Chu Zhang. They will also send someone to bring it to her. It's not that the Chen family is short of the one tael of silver, but because of this. It's out of reach, so why give the Chu Mansion to an unborn brat?It's not what the old fool is!
If Mrs. Chen hadn't mentioned Chu Zhi, she wouldn't have known about it.

She asked, "Then mother doesn't care?"

"Your mother is a great virtuous person now. She eats fast and recites Buddha's name every day! Who cares about this?"

After Chu Zhi heard this, thoughts flashed across his eyes.

"But you don't have to worry. Your brother is not a fool. Besides, there are so many eyes staring at the house. Nothing will happen to you. The reason why I tell you this is to let you know that the old lady is confused. If she says something that makes you unhappy, don't take it to heart."

Chu Zhi nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you, auntie, for telling me this, I've written it all down."

After the two of them finished talking, they went to the courtyard of the big house. Mrs. Chen knew that Chu Zhi was busy, so she said, "Then you go and find Wan'er, and I won't accompany you."

"Today has already disturbed Auntie a lot, so hurry up and get busy, it is very troublesome for you to manage the huge Chu Mansion by yourself."

Chen said with a smile: "I'm busy, but there are only those left and right, mainly to accompany you."

……

But when Chu Zhi passed by, Chu Wan was sitting by the window arranging the wedding dress.

Her wedding dress has already been almost prepared, and now she is digging it out to see what needs to be improved.

"Fifth Sister." Chu Wan got up quickly, "Please sit down quickly."

"congratulation."

"It's thanks to you." The dream of several years finally came true. She got her wish and married the fourth prince as a concubine. Chu Wan's brows were full of joy, "If you didn't help me this time, I'm afraid..."

It was also because she was too stupid, knowing who Chu Xi was, to cooperate with her so stupidly. Fortunately, Chu Zhi pointed it out, so she didn't let her success fall short.

"As I said, it's just a mutual benefit between us."

"I know." Chu Wan was a little anxious, "But now I've broken my skin with Chu Xi, I just want to be with Fifth Sister—"

"Fourth Sister." Chu Zhi interrupted her with a smile, "Do you know what I am looking for you today?"

Facing Chu Zhi's penetrating eyes, Chu Wan couldn't utter a single word.

She forced a smile on her face: "Fifth sister...isn't here to see me today?"

"Fourth sister, whether you really know it or pretend you don't understand it, I just want to tell you that this time you betrayed me and made Chu Xi feel embarrassed, and I will help you fulfill your wish. The matter depends on you, I will not interfere with the affairs of Prince Xian's residence, if there is no major matter from now on, you and I will have no further contact."

Even though she had already guessed, Chu Wan's face was still pale, and she subconsciously squeezed the veil tightly: "Fifth sister..."

"Fourth sister, these jewelry are my dowry to you, and I hope you don't dislike them." After Chu Zhi finished speaking, Dong'er put a jewelry box in front of Chu Wan, "I hope you will continue to be favored in the Xian Wang's mansion." , give birth to a son and a half daughter as soon as possible, so as to stabilize the position."

Chu Wan looked at the jewelry on the table, feeling moved in his heart, and it took him a long time to whisper, "Thank you."

Chu Zhi smiled and shook his head: "It's getting late, I should go back."

When she came to the door, she stopped suddenly, and said: "Concubine Xian is not as kind as she appears on the surface. Befriending her can help you gain a temporary foothold in the palace. It's just that you must be cautious. Her trust depends on your ability."

Chu Wan looked at Chu Zhi's back and didn't speak for a long time.

It wasn't until Chu Zhi left the yard that Aunt Cen came out of the house.

"Fifth Miss rejected you." Aunt Cen naturally heard the conversation between the two, and she couldn't hide her worry, "I know you have always had a higher heart than the sky, and you don't like the marriage that Madam said for you, but I didn't expect that the person you like would be the fourth prince, now the fifth girl won't help you any more, you went to the palace..."

Aunt Cen couldn't help crying when she thought of how dangerous it was and how Chu Xi was waiting there.

Seeing that Aunt Cen was crying, Chu Wan smiled and comforted her, "Okay, Aunt Cen, don't be sad, things are not as bad as you imagined, and besides, isn't there still the Fourth Prince?"

But Aunt Cen said: "We can all see how much the Fourth Prince loves Chu Xi. If you want to fight Chu Xi, how can you win?"

"The fourth prince loves Chu Xi, so he also loves the concubine, me, and other concubines! It's just a more or less relationship. Besides, even though it's disgraceful for the fourth prince to occupy my body, he still loves me. Yes, otherwise, why would you allow me to enter the mansion? After I enter the mansion, the Fourth Prince will definitely love me, so just rest assured!"

After hearing what Chu Wan said, Aunt Cen finally shed tears.

Now that the deal is done, she said that it would be futile to say more.

"I'm not favored, and my wife is a powerful one. You have suffered a lot with me over the years. It's because I don't have the ability to..."

"Okay." Chu Wan frowned, with a flash of impatience in his eyes, "What are you talking about so much? Yes, you don't have the skills, why don't you raise me?"

"You...don't be angry." Aunt Cen hurriedly said, "I don't mean to be fat, I just hope that after you marry into the palace, you will be safe and happy, and your life will go smoothly. I don't expect any glory and wealth, really."

Chu Wan didn't speak.

She looked at Aunt Cen, who was wiping her tears with her head down, and sighed for a while.

"Okay, don't cry, I'm getting married, it's like going to a funeral." Chu Wan took Aunt Cen's hand, "Don't worry, I will live well in the palace, but you, I'm gone and no one will take care of you."

Aunt Cen hurriedly said, "I'm fine, don't worry about me."

"Okay, I don't know you yet." Chu Wan sighed, "When I gain a foothold in the palace, my father will treat you better for my sake, and your position in the palace will not be so embarrassing. gone."

Hearing that her daughter was planning everything for herself, Aunt Cen was so moved that she wanted to cry, she was afraid of making her daughter unhappy, so she nodded her head in agreement.

……

"Master, the fourth girl clearly wanted to surrender to you just now, why didn't you agree?" Dong'er asked, "The sixth girl is still trying to trick you, if you agree to the fourth girl, after the fourth girl enters the house, you Wouldn't it be good to join forces with Miss Four to deal with Miss Six together?"
