Chapter 1071 Does koi bring blessing or disaster (23)
He Zhenniang took another quick look at Zihua, who had grown a head taller than two years ago. She thought of something and said honestly, "I never heard your father...Song Sheng say you are not his daughter. After he bought me, he only
Tell me to raise you well.
It's because I feel that he doesn't treat you like his biological daughter. I've seen him look at you with pity and disgust in his eyes after drinking. I had doubts in my heart, but I didn't dare to ask.
I listened to him and raised you well. You had a bigger appetite than other children since you were a child, and I never let you go hungry.
You were lively when you were young. When you were four years old, you accidentally broke a bamboo pole that was two fingers thick. When he saw it, he lost his temper with me and asked me to control you more and teach you to be gentle, quiet, and eat less.
My former boss's family was a wealthy family, but they didn't have any rules about not letting the girls go out because they wanted to keep the girls quiet.
I have long discovered that you are stronger than ordinary children, and what he did... does not seem like what a loving father would do..."
He Zhenniang said, secretly observing Zi Hua's expression, but did not see any movement, "...after he became seriously ill, the first thing he thought about was to marry you off.
I thought you could help me take care of Ming'er at home, and asked if I could let you remarry a few years later. He got very angry at me and said that if I ruined his arrangement, he would have Ming'er taken away."
Yu Hua asked, "The fortune teller who matched Chen Wenlu and me's horoscopes was arranged by Song Sheng."
He Zhenniang responded "Yes", "He dragged the sick body out. I was afraid that he was looking for someone to take Ming'er away, so I followed him quietly.
He went to the fortune teller's house, and I listened secretly. I heard him tell the fortune teller that if you are destined to harm your husband, your good husband's family will be controlled by you, and if you live a bad life, you will be
Very prosperous husband's family.
From that moment on, I felt that there was a good chance that you two were not biological father and daughter."
Zihua nodded slightly.
This was expected by Yu Hua.
When a fortune teller combines the horoscopes of a man and a woman, he can only tell whether they are compatible or not. How can he say that as long as the original owner's destiny is suppressed, it will bring good luck to the husband's family.
This statement seems to be for Chen Wenlu's benefit, but from another perspective, it is completely detrimental to the original owner.
It is said that if the horoscopes are not compatible, the marriage will not be possible at most. If the original owner then looks for a horoscope that is consistent, then he says that by suppressing the original owner's destiny, the husband's family will be prosperous. Isn't this just tempting the husband's family to think of ways to make the original owner's life difficult?
After hearing what the fortune teller said, a good family would choose not to get married, but the Chen family is not a kind family and would only try to try to tease the original owner.
It would make sense if it was arranged by Song Sheng.
The Chen family is probably a family that Song Sheng specifically found out in order to keep the original owner trapped in the Chen family forever.
Chen Wenlu may not have known that there was something wrong with the fortune teller, but he only married the original owner because of the conditions set by Song Sheng, and he had a tacit understanding with Song Sheng.
"I, I said it, I, can I leave?" He Zhenniang begged to Yuhua tremblingly with tears in her eyes.
It's just that Zihua is no longer the Song Yuerou she used to be. He Zhenniang's weak weapons are ineffective against her, "No. You tried to drug me to kill me, and you asked me to let you go as if nothing was wrong?"
He Zhenniang's face turned pale again, and she hurriedly pointed her palms to the sky, "Yuerou, for the sake of my dedication to you in the past ten years, please let me go this time. I swear to God, I will never show up again from now on."
In front of you, I will not do anything to regret you. If I violate this oath, I will be struck by lightning."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was suddenly a burst of thunder from the sky.
He Zhenniang shivered in shock and looked at the sky in panic.
Although the sky was not clear at this time, the sun was shining through the white clouds, and it didn't look like it was going to rain.
He Zhenniang became even more panicked.
"It's not impossible if you want me to let you go. You can do whatever I ask you to do." Zi Hua drank softly, "Get up. Follow me to see Li Zheng. Don't forget to pick up the basket. If the inside is knocked over,
Don't say I didn't give you a chance."
He Zhenniang is a person who doesn't have many opinions. Although she has argued with her Xiao Jiujiu about Song Ming, fundamentally speaking, she listens to whoever is fierce.
How could He Zhenniang disobey Zi Hua? She hurriedly got up, not even thinking of patting the dirt on her clothes. When she saw that all the pastries in the basket were fine, she breathed a sigh of relief and carefully picked them up.
…
"...I was sick and bedridden, and I was afraid that my daughter would pass away. I couldn't see my daughter for two years.
Song Sheng told me before he died that Yuerou was not our daughter. He said that his biological daughter had died in infancy and he had taken her from nowhere while I was recovering from illness."
He Zhenniang, with tears in her eyes, knelt on the ground helplessly.
Zihua gave He Zhenniang high marks for her performance.
In her heart, He Zhenniang positioned herself as a weak woman who could not stand up. On the other hand, she was also very good at using her image of a weak woman to use various ways of showing weakness to arouse others' pity for her.
Zihua didn't expect that this would reveal that He Zhenniang was not the real He Zhenniang, because this matter had nothing to do with her.
Once exposed, it would no longer be Li Zheng's decision. The reporting officer would cause a lot of trouble. The current legal system was incomplete and she did not want to take the initiative to get involved.
Song Sheng didn't really want to raise the original owner, but he didn't lose or kill her - it was very common for a child to die in this era. If Song Sheng wanted the original owner to die young, he could do it by just letting her get sick.
But Song Sheng did not do this and raised the original owner without beating or scolding him. This only shows that the origin of the original owner was not simple, so Song Sheng did not dare to kill the original owner.
Judging from the way Song Sheng raised the original owner, Song Sheng wanted to raise a person who was easy to control and would play a special role in the future.
Unfortunately, Song Sheng fell seriously ill and was about to die. Knowing that He Zhenniang could not control the original owner, he found someone to control the original owner for him - Chen Wenlu, to prevent the original owner from getting away from one of his schemes.
Song Sheng was so afraid that her natural strength would be exposed, which made Zi Hua believe that after word spread that she was as strong as an ox, the mystery of the original owner's identity would be revealed sooner or later, and Song Sheng's plan would also come to nothing.
The origin of the original owner does not simply mean trouble.
By resolving the grievances of the original owner, Zihua has settled the relationship between her and the original owner, so she will not take the initiative to find a bride.
There is an old saying that catching up is not a business.
So she only asked He Zhenniang to make it clear to Li Zheng that she was not the biological daughter of Song Sheng and He Zhenniang, but a child of unknown origin brought by Song Sheng. In this way, she could break away from Song Sheng and He Zhenniang.
With He Zhenniang's soft temperament, she could not protect the property left by Song Sheng. If something happened, it would probably be blamed on her.
It's better to break off the relationship.
After listening to He Zhenniang's story, Li Zheng, who was sitting in the seat, paused, a shrewd look flashed across his thin face, "This is not the reason for you to poison your adopted daughter."
