Although Chen Jiayu is a nanny in the Chen family, she is treated as a family member by the Chen family.
Not only Zhou Ying, but also Zhou Ying's two children, Chen Yuefang and Chen Yuehua, regard Zhou Ying as their biological aunt and call her Ma Chen.
In the third year after Chen Chaoran became the chief Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion, Chen Jiayu gave birth to another son. That son was Chen Shanshan's father, Chen Guojian.
Zhou Ying doted on his only son and loved him so much that he was afraid of melting when he held it in his mouth, and he was afraid of falling when he held it in his hands.
But the strange thing is that although Zhou Ying is the only daughter of the former chief heavenly master, her qualifications are mediocre. Even her ability to meet people is only half water. Even the three children she gave birth to are more mediocre than the last. They are not at all.
The materials for practicing the technique, especially the youngest son Chen Guojian, cannot even do the simplest physiognomy.
Chen Chaoran devoted himself to the work of Tianshi Mansion. Because of his high level of cultivation, some real skills, and his ability to know people and make good use of them, his fame and prestige were getting higher and higher.
But for his three children, Chen Chaoran was somewhat lax in discipline and restraint.
As the old saying goes, there is no such thing as good meat. Zhou Ying's two daughters are quite well-behaved, but their temperament and personality are somewhat similar to Zhou Ying's when she was young. They are a bit more unruly and willful, but as the Chen family is a wealthy family,
, although the girl is more unruly and willful, she can't do any good.
But Chen Guojian was different. He had been willful since he was a child, and by the age of sixteen or seventeen, he had learned to bully men and dominate women by virtue of his status as the son of the chief Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion.
When Chen Guojian was in college, he stabbed a male classmate to death out of jealousy. The male classmate's family had a strong family background, and he sued all the way to the imperial city, demanding that Chen Guojian pay for his life.
Unable to resist the pleading of Zhou Ying and his son, Chen Chaoran bribed a death row prisoner who was imprisoned in the Tianshi Mansion. After promising him a large sum of money, he used magic to cover his eyes and saved Chen Guojian's life.
Chen Guojian's life was saved, but Chen Chaoran felt that his innocence had been ruined in his life. He drove Chen Guojian out of Kyoto angrily and swore that he would never see Chen Guojian again, threatening that if Chen Guojian dared to return to Kyoto again, he would be the first to kill him.
life.
I have to say that Chen Chaoran's character is actually flawed. He has been fighting and struggling with himself all his life.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this contradictory personality that led to his tragic fate.#@$&
He never liked Zhou Ying from the beginning, but he was willing to give up his lifelong marital happiness for the so-called career and ambition;
He advocates integrity, but he ruined his lifelong innocence for Chen Guojian, and put eternal shackles on his heart;
He chose to save his son's life, but was unwilling to forgive his son and would not hesitate to turn against his wife and children.
Chen Guojian had to leave Kyoto under the pressure of his father.
No one knows who spread the news about his fake death. Without Chen Chaoran's protection, in order to avoid being pursued by his enemies, Chen Guojian hid in a remote small county on the 17th and 18th lines, thousands of miles away from Kyoto.%&(&
Only the Chen family knew that Chen Guojian had faked his death. The news suddenly leaked out, and the whole family believed that Chen Chaoran deliberately spread the news in order to force Chen Guojian to stay away from Kyoto.
For this reason, both Zhou Ying and Chen Guojian fell in love with Chen Chaoran, and even their two daughters became more and more alienated from him because of this incident.
A year later, Chen Chaoran's eldest daughter Chen Yuefang got married, and his son-in-law Lian Anping was a young official in Kyoto politics.
Lian Anping has always admired Chen Chaoran, and Chen Chaoran also admired Lian Anping's attitude and enterprising spirit towards work and career.
Then Zhou Ying disagreed. Zhou Ying wanted Chen Yuefang to find a young and promising Tianshi as his son-in-law in the Tianshi Mansion.
Chen Yuefang herself is not interested in Xuanmen, not to mention she likes Lian Anping very much.
Naturally, he refuses to change his mind.
Zhou Ying led Chen Yuefang to his bedroom. The mother and daughter talked in the bedroom for a whole afternoon, but in the end neither could convince the other.
The mother and daughter even had a big fight.
In the end, it was Chen Chaoran who made the final decision as the head of the family and agreed to the marriage between Chen Yuefang and Lian Anping.
As a result, Zhou Ying fell in love with Chen Chaoran even more, and the relationship between the couple almost reached a freezing point. Zhou Ying always looked at Chen Chaoran with a cold and vicious look in his eyes.
Because of this incident, the relationship between Chen Chaoran and his daughter Chen Yuefang became closer.
On the day of her wedding, Chen Yuefang secretly said something to Chen Chaoran.
"Watch out mom!"
Chen Yuefang told Chen Chaoran: "The ancestors of the Zhou family have been cursed, and their daughters are born to be useless in Xuanmen. But if the daughter only needs to eat her husband's soul, she can become a master of Xuanmen and reverse this curse.
Zhou Ying wanted Chen Yuefang to find a young but disliked Tianshi in Tianshi Mansion to marry. This was the purpose.
Although Chen Yuefang's surname is not Zhou, she is Zhou Ying's daughter. Coincidentally, she is also born a waste."
Chen Chaoran was stunned after hearing his daughter's words. He finally understood why Dong Xiucai told him that good fortune and misfortune depended on each other, and that meeting Zhou Ying was both a great opportunity and a great disaster for her.
Dong Xiucai told him that he could not avoid this disaster, and it turned out that he would eventually end up with his soul eaten by Zhou Ying.
If it weren't for his father-in-law's short lifespan, and if it weren't for his high level of cultivation and his ability to avoid being harmed easily, his soul would probably have been eaten by Zhou Ying.
Zhou Ying must have been looking forward to the day he died so that he could devour his soul.
Chen Chaoran is able to manage the huge Tianshi Mansion smoothly, of course because of his skill and IQ that are beyond ordinary people, not to mention that Dong Xiucai gave him a warning in the early years, so that he had to be prepared, otherwise he would not survive
Not until today.
In the days that followed, Chen Chaoran pretended not to know anything and was still busy with the work of Tianshi Mansion. He occasionally went home to spend time with his young daughter and Zhou Ying.
Even like before, in order to ease the relationship between husband and wife, he deliberately bought some small gifts to please Zhou Ying.
After Chen Yuefang got married, she rarely went back to her parents' home. After Lian Ruowei was born, Chen Chaoran brought back a little girl who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old. This little girl was very pretty, and she was very clever in everything she said and did.
People pity.
Chen Chaoran told Zhou Ying that this little girl was a fellow villager he rescued in western Sichuan. She was seriously injured and had been in the hospital for more than a month. Her parents were gone and she had no other relatives. She could do anything at such a young age.
, he saw how pitiful he was, so he brought it back so that he could stay at home to help Chen Jiayu wash clothes, cook and so on.
This little girl is Xiao Cui.
Zhou Ying has always liked children. Because her relationship with her daughter Chen Yuefang was so tense, she didn't even hold her granddaughter a few times. Suddenly there was a half-year-old child in the family. Of course she didn't have any objections.
Chen Jiayu also liked this clever little girl very much. With Zhou Ying's consent, she even secretly recognized Xiao Cui as her goddaughter. This chapter has been completed!
