Quick Wear: BE cannon fodder does not follow the routine

Chapter 684 Marrying the Wrong Man or the Right One? (5)

"I'm sorry cousin, it's my poor health that caused you to act like this today."

"My daughter, she is slandering you. Are you out of your mind? Why are you still concerned about her?"

Yang said to Gu Fenghuan and the others, "You all know the whole story, eunuchs. It's not my Xi'er who's messing around. You should also take care of Huan'er and stop her from messing around. After all, we are a family."

"Sister-in-law, you can't say..."

"Shut up!" A man with a livid face interrupted the plump woman.

Gu Fenghuan wanted to say something, but was suddenly slapped in the face by her father. She covered her face with tears in her eyes, and heard the man's curses in her ears: "Rebellious girl, why don't you go home and think about it!"

"Dad, I..." The aggrieved Gu Fenghuan's eyes were filled with tears. She glanced at everyone's expressions, and the resentment in her heart intensified.

"Since it's just a misunderstanding, let's not hurt the harmony among family members."

"Xiaoxi is sick, how could she have the energy to jump into the water? My niece, you are already at the age to get married, so don't lose your reputation." Yang said earnestly.

"Master, our daughter..."

"Shut up, everyone. This is just a woman's opinion. There's no point in arguing among family members. Isn't that right, Dad?"

The old man who was so angry that he couldn't speak said: "Since you are sick, then stay at home and don't let others hear you and cause trouble to your family."

Gu Yuxi replied weakly: "Grandpa, you are right. I am also responsible for this. After all, my uncle is the inspector of Menghua City. If outsiders knew that there was such a foolish thing in our family, we would be ridiculed."

"My niece is sensible. Your cousin is at fault. Uncle, go back and teach her a lesson."

"father."

"You dare to talk back? Go back and copy the women's ring a thousand times." After saying this, the man glanced at Gu Erfang and then walked away.

Seeing that the person in charge had left, the old man snorted coldly and left. Seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow their master and leave.

The uninvited guests had all left. The Gu Erfang couple helped Gu Yuxi to her room and said angrily, "You've been bullied to such an extent, and you can still laugh. I wonder how you'll be bullied when you get married in the future?"

Gu Yuxi stopped laughing, held her parents' hands, and said seriously: "Knowing that Dad and Mom care about their daughter, I will be tougher in the future."

"You, we are not from an official family, but a merchant family. It is better to have less contact with the people in the eldest house. We should also be more firm, so as not to be accused of trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful."

"My mother taught me that."

"Sister, if anyone dares to bully you again in the future, I will teach him a lesson for you.

"Well, you are indeed a good brother to your sister."

"It's getting late. I'm not in a good mood after being tormented by them tonight. Xi'er, you should be more careful and don't lend these clothes and other things."

"Mother, you are right. We are busy tomorrow. You should go back to sleep."

"Your body?"

"After drinking grandpa's medicine, I feel much better. Maybe I'll be fine tomorrow after a good night's sleep."

"Okay, I'll help you go back and rest. Don't run around these few days. Rest well at home."

"I will listen to my mother."

After helping the man lie down on the bed and covering him with a quilt, the Gu Erfang couple and Gu Cixin left Gu Yuxi's room without saying anything else.

Gu Yuxi, who was lying on the bed, finally had time to sort out the original owner's memories.

The original owner's family had been farmers for generations, but the eldest uncle passed the imperial examination and became a low-ranking scholar. As the saying goes, if one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. In addition, the original owner's uncle is good at business, and now he has secured a position as a city inspector, but his career path as an official has not progressed.

Although he was a ninth-rank inspector, the local gentry were all afraid of him because he had real knives, guns, sticks and clubs in his hands.

The original owner's father, Gu Erfang, was an honest farmer. He married the original owner's mother, Yang, because he saved the beauty.

The original owner's grandparents had only one daughter. They didn't want her to suffer, so they ran a dyeing shop and had a good business. When they were old, they passed all their skills to Gu Erfang and his wife, and let them run the shop.

Today, the original owner's grandfather is already in his sixties, his grandmother has passed away for three years, and the family lives a simple and happy life.

However, what broke all this peace was the rebirth of Gu Fenghuan, the heroine of this small world.

Before her rebirth, the heroine married a short-lived man. She became a widow in just one year, was oppressed, and finally became a peasant woman with a hard life.

At that time, Gu Fenghuan's father was implicated by his wife's maternal family and was dismissed from his official position. He could only return home to farm, and he was unable to take care of his daughter.

As for the original owner's family, they had always been doing their job well and were not greatly affected. Their business recovered after one or two years.

At that time, the original owner's grandparents died every other year, and the custom in Menghua City stipulated that one could not get married in the year when a family member died.

The original owner had an engagement with the son of the Chengyilang family in the capital because of her grandmother. At that time, Chengyilang's Wen family was in poverty and exiled, and happened to arrive in a small village outside Menghua City.

The Wen family, who had previously repeatedly refused to acknowledge this marriage, now wished that the wedding could take place as soon as possible.

The original owner was almost seventeen years old due to etiquette and customs. They could not spread rumors that would hurt others. In addition, the Wen family had spread the news that she had an engagement with the Wen family, so the Gu family's parents had no choice but to marry their daughter off.

Although they were married daughters, Gu Erfang and his wife still took good care of them and often provided them with financial support.

When Gu Cixin became a juren at the age of 25 and had extensive connections, things took a turn for the better for the Wen family, and Gu Fenghuan's father was later reinstated.

The original owner's husband, Wen Pinyan, was the second grandson of the Wen family. He was handsome and even though he was down and out, he still had talent. In the end, he became a Jinshi and had a successful career.

But Gu Fenghuan could not be content. Seeing that the original owner was living a smooth life, she became jealous, but she could not do anything to her until she was reborn.

After rebirth, Gu Fenghuan first hired someone to kill someone, but the original owner was familiar with the environment of Menghua City and had good swimming skills. Even though Gu Fenghuan had drugged the original owner, the original owner still managed to hide under a stone bridge and escaped.

At that time, the original owner was almost 15 years old and her period had just arrived. After returning home, her body was invaded by cold and dampness, and she was seriously ill for more than half a year.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Gu Fenghuan relied on the memories of her previous life to get acquainted with the wife of the Minister of War who came to Menghua City to visit her relatives. The two got along very well and finally Gu Fenghuan became the adopted daughter of the Minister of War and entered the capital.

When she arrived in the capital, she went straight to find Wen Pinyan, the grandson of the Wen family. Knowing his preferences, she often met him by chance, and the two gradually developed feelings for each other.

After returning to Menghua City, Gu Fenghuan reminded the Wen family that they had escaped the disaster and her mother had severed ties with her maternal family. Naturally, she would not marry the short-lived ghost husband from her previous life again, but her concubine sister Gu Shanhu had done her a favor in her previous life.

After much consideration, she came up with the dirty trick of marrying in place of the original owner, and designed a plan to make the original owner get into Gu Shanhu's bridal sedan.
