Chu Yunli followed behind and saw that Chen Yuanlue stopped after hearing this, turned around and ordered, "Bring Aunt Zhang with you."
There was a lot of hustle and bustle in Changfuyuan. When the two entered the door, they saw the old lady leaning on the pillow with an ashen face. When she saw the couple entering the door, she closed her eyes and said, "Find... the second master... here."
She said these words to the mother-in-law next to her.
Chen Yuanlue stepped forward and asked in a gentle voice, "Mom, how are you?"
The old lady closed her eyes, as if she didn't hear anything.
Chen Yuanlue turned around and asked the doctor, "How is the old lady?"
The doctor glanced at the person on the bed and said, "Old Madam, everything is fine." After saying this, he blinked, reached out and waved at Chen Yuan, and walked out of the door first.
After Chu Yunli took Chen Yuanlue out, the doctor saluted the two of them and said, "The old lady is so angry that she has hurt her heart. I'd better...make plans early."
To put it more clearly, we can prepare for the funeral.
Chen Yuanlue took a step back in disbelief, "Is it so serious?"
Seeing this, the doctor said, "Master, take care of yourself. The old lady was seriously injured by that medicine. She just needs to take good care of herself... Now she vomited blood again, which made her worse." Before leaving, the doctor also told them, "Try not to let the old lady know about you."
His body is already in bad shape. Sometimes people live with that tone of voice. If they know that it is not good and let their anger out, it will be difficult for gods to save them."
The gentle smile returned to Chen Yuanlue's face as he walked in again, "Aren't you just asking your second brother to come back? What a big deal, mother, don't be angry. How about I let them move back in for a while?"
"Unfilial son!" The old lady opened her eyes, her anger still lingering, "I said you can't keep that woman, what did you say?"
"You said you would send her away, and then you said you would bring her back after she had improved." The old lady became angrier as she spoke, "Did she change for the better? She deliberately made us think that she had changed for the better, and then she became so vicious.
Damn me! Cough cough..." Speaking of excitement, the old lady started coughing.
Chen Yuanlue hurriedly stepped forward to pat her back, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief. When she finished coughing and took her hand back, she saw a smear of red on it.
The red tinge made Chen Yuanlue's eyes hurt. He wiped away the blood on his mother's lips without leaving a trace, and said in the same tone as usual, "Mom, I have brought her here. What do you want to do with her?"
After the old lady choked and coughed, she leaned on the pillow exhausted and said, "That woman is too cruel, I can't keep her."
There was silence in the room for a long while before Chen Yuanlue responded softly.
Hearing the slight snoring from the old lady on the bed, Chen Yuanlue went out. Chu Yunli stayed with him without saying much, standing aside and helping. For example, the handkerchief Chen Yuanlue gave his mother to cover her mouth was handed over by her.
.
After the couple went out, Chen Yuanlue looked at Zhang Liyuan kneeling in the yard, closed his eyes and said, "Send Aunt Zhang back to the yard."
When Zhang Liyuan was led away, Chen Yuanlue ordered, "Go get the medicine from my study and make a bowl of it."
The scenery in the Chen Mansion's courtyard is always good. The two walked leisurely for a long time. He said, "If I had known this, I shouldn't have let her in at the beginning."
Chu Yunli lowered his eyes. If Zhang Liyuan had not come in, he would still be raising his son outside. Chen Yuanlue would go back from time to time with Chen Xianle, who had already entered the genealogy. The family of four was enjoying themselves. At that time, the one who felt aggrieved was
She did.
"I also have a responsibility." Chu Yunli said, "I originally intended for you to stay together as lovers, but I didn't expect that it would end up like this."
Chen Yuan was slightly startled, "It's none of your business. It's because she has a vicious heart and doesn't understand the general situation. The Hu family is kind to the Chen family, and the Hu family is extremely vicious. I will deal with her sooner or later..." He paused and smiled bitterly.
Said, "She doesn't trust me!"
When the two of them walked to the gate of Zhang Liyuan's courtyard, the attendant there also brought a bowl of medicine.
Chu Yunli stood still, "I'm not going, right?"
Let them both say goodbye.
Chen Yuanlue shook her hand and said, "Ranran, I will live a good life with you from now on."
After saying this, he strode in with his entourage. After a few breaths, Zhou Xianle was dragged out crying, and all seven or eight servants filed out.
Zhou Xianle kept crying. When Chen Yuanlue came out again half a quarter of an hour later, there was no medicine bowl in his hand.
Chen Yuanlue's eyes were red and he said to Chu Yunli who was standing at the door of the yard, "Aunt Zhang passed away due to illness. I need to trouble Madam to make arrangements for her funeral."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Zhou Xianle burst into tears and ran in.
Chu Yunli walked in slowly. There was no one in the courtyard. At the door of the main room, Zhang Liyuan was lying there, vomiting blood.
"Don't cry!" Zhang Liyuan's pale skin looked a bit oozing. She also smiled and wiped her daughter's tears, "I am to blame for today, don't hate me! Madam is a good person, be nice, she won't
I have wronged you." She spat out another mouthful of blood and choked, "Get out!"
Zhou Xianle cried harder, Zhang Liyuan reached out and pushed her, "Let's go!"
Zhou Xianle was pushed to the ground, turned over and got up, "I'm going to find the doctor!"
After she ran away, Zhang Liyuan raised his eyes and looked at Chu Yunli in the yard, "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Chu Yunli stepped closer, squatted in front of her, and lowered his voice, "I meant well. Who would have thought that you would kill yourself to death in just over a year after entering the house. Also, the relationship between you and the master's childhood sweetheart
It seems that it's almost done now." She saw the bowl not far away from the corridor with her peripheral vision, and asked excitedly, "Did you drink this medicine, or did he drink it?"
Zhang Liyuan stared at her.
Chu Yunli understood instantly, "Oh, I was tricked." He sighed again, "Sure enough, the man's heart is changeable. A year ago, he wanted to record your daughter in the family tree as his legitimate daughter."
"Pretending...I feel...disgusted when I look at you..." Zhang Liyuan began to speak intermittently, his eyes were unfocused, and the words in his mouth were no longer filled with hatred, but with pleading, "Please...help me...daughter..."
Chu Yunli didn't move, leaned into her ear and whispered, "I'm being generous by not harming her. How can you have the nerve to beg me?"
Zhang Liyuan's eyes widened, the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and he became completely motionless.
Zhou Xianle hurriedly entered the door, knelt down facing Chu Yunli from a distance, and cried, "Madam, please save my mother and hire a doctor for her... Please..."
Chu Yunli turned her head and said, "It's too late."
Zhou Xianle crawled over, looked at Zhang Liyuan with her eyes open on the threshold, and stretched out her hand to push.
She cried sadly, and Chu Yunli stood in the yard, "Your father said, let me organize the funeral for your mother."
Zhou Xianle collapsed and shouted, "He killed my mother!"
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows, "Your mother said that he is your father. Do you know this?"
Nowadays, children are precocious, and a ten-year-old child knows everything. Zhou Xianle's face was filled with tears, and she shook her head, "He is not my father."
Whether it is true or not, perhaps only Zhang Liyuan himself knows.
It was said that Chu Yunli was asked to organize the funeral, but in fact, she didn't need to bother, the steward below could handle the matter. She was just an aunt, and no one came to express condolences or ask questions. It was quiet, and it only took two days.
It has been buried. The old lady specifically ordered not to be buried in the Chen family land, so she only found a place for burial in the suburbs.
Chen Yuanlue took a look at the coffin when it was leaving, but saw no one the rest of the time.
Zhang Liyuan is gone, except that only Zhou Xianle lives in her yard, which is no different from before.
The old lady's body was getting thinner day by day. Half a month later, she was on her deathbed. Chen Yuanlue, Chu Yunli, and the second and third bedrooms all stood in front of the bed. The old lady was already in a daze, but she woke up when she was about to die.
, kicked everyone out, leaving Chen Yuanlue alone to give some instructions.
The third room was fine, but the couple in the second room were extremely unhappy. While the group of people were waiting under the eaves, they said sourly, "My favorite is my eldest brother, and I can't let him go now."
"Shut up!" It was Mr. Chen who scolded her. His eyes were a little red. "You talk a lot, and you don't even look at the time. You know how your mother treats you. Do you still feel sad at this time?"
?”
Liao didn't dare to say anything anymore.
When Chen Yuanlue came out, the old lady inside had no breath.
The second wife didn't live in the house, so she had no idea why the old lady fell seriously ill all of a sudden and died so soon.
The funeral of the old lady went well, and many families in the city came to express their condolences. The three brothers knelt before the funeral, their faces full of sorrow.
After the funeral was completed, the second room lived in the house for the first seven days.
Originally, they were supposed to move out after the first day of the seventh lunar month, but Master Chen had a solemn expression on his face, "Brother, did my mother really die of illness?"
Chen Yuan was silent for a moment, "What did you hear?"
"My mother was killed by your woman!" Mr. Chen scolded, "If you can't control a woman, you are not a man...you bastard! My mother has liked you since she was a child. I asked me to learn how to do business.
I'm afraid that there will be discord between the brothers. You are a young talent and everyone praises you. Mr. Chen, why can't you protect your mother? You are a waste!"
There was no end to it, and they cursed for a long time, but Chen Yuanlue didn't reply from the beginning to the end.
Mr. Chen took his family and left the Chen Mansion while scolding and crying. He scolded him severely and said he would never come back in his life.
After the old lady left, the house seemed much deserted, and Chu Yunli didn't have to go to anyone to say hello. The person who had changed the most was the Hu family.
The old lady is gone, and Mrs. Hu has to come out and kneel in mourning. Although she is an aunt, she is still a daughter of the Hu family. If outsiders come to express their condolences if they don't see them, they will probably ask. Moreover, the wrong things that Mrs. Hu has committed cannot be told to the outside world.
, so her confinement was naturally lifted.
Chen Yuanlue was busy taking care of the funeral arrangements, busy entertaining guests, and busy grieving. He couldn't care about her at all.
After the confinement was lifted, Chu Yunli didn't even ask about the child. Hu couldn't wait to take him back. Then, he would come over every morning and evening to say hello, and would bring the child with him.
Chu Yunli didn't care whether she came or not, but because of the things she had done, Chu Yunli was always wary of her, especially when Chen Xi went to the other side and bought two more guards to accompany him.
It is worth mentioning that Zhou Xianle probably thought that her mother was dead and she could only rely on Chu Yunli to live her life. She would come over every day to say hello, but most of the time, she was dismissed by Chu Yunli before she even entered the door.
In fact, Hu's position in the Chen family is a bit awkward now. Chen Yuanlue is very cold towards her and almost doesn't see her. It is obvious that he blames Hu for his old mother's death.
After careful calculation, the old lady will be poisoned to death by Zhang Liyuan. It is true that she is unfair in dealing with things, but she will be unfair in the final analysis because her interests favor the Hu family.
After this calculation, she was indeed responsible for the old lady's death.
This morning, Zhou Xianle was dismissed at the door as usual. Just as she was about to go back, she met Mrs. Hu who was bringing her children.
Zhou Xianle hated Mr. Hu, so naturally it was impossible for him to say hello, not to look sideways, and to get up and leave.
Seeing her unruly attitude, Mrs. Hu sneered, "What are you so arrogant about?" She said to the maid next to her, "I heard that the child whose parents died long ago is a nuisance. It is best to tell the lady and send him away.
Well, it’s best if you don’t hit the madam and the master.”
After saying that, she walked in. In Zhou Xianle's eyes, it was Hu who wanted to send her away. In fact, she didn't like staying in the Chen Mansion, but she knew that no one would pay attention to her if she stayed in the Chen Mansion. If she went out, she would be a little
In addition to being a slave and a maid, the girl can only live in the land of fireworks... It is better to die.
With a strong heart, she pulled out the dagger and stabbed Hu in the back.
Neither Mrs. Hu nor her maid reacted. The maid immediately hugged the child tightly and took a few steps back. Anyway, she couldn't say it was her fault for protecting her little master.
Hu's waist was stabbed, and Zhou Xianle was so angry that she used hard force, and the dagger immediately penetrated most of the way.
When Chu Yunli went out, Mrs. Hu had already fallen to the ground, her waist covered in blood, while Zhou Xianle was so frightened that she sat on the ground.
Ms. Hu was seriously injured. The place where she was stabbed was unfortunate. She was seriously injured, but even if she recovered, her health would be very bad and she would get sick easily. She had to take good care of her.
When Chen Yuanlue learned about this, he was shocked at first, then shook his head after realizing it, "She has a mother like that... She is just a child after all, so she should be sent away far away."
He sent Zhou Xianle away. After knowing the whole story of Hu's injury, he picked up his daughter and ordered her to stay in bed to recuperate. She was not allowed to go out again without him speaking.
He held the child, who was only a few months old, and thought about it for a long time before bringing it to Chu Yunli. "Madam, could you please help me take care of it..."
Taking care of such a small number of children is laborious and laborious, and may not be enough for you. Chu Yunli refused and interrupted him, "I have so many children to raise, and I don't have time to raise any more. Isn't this the daughter you have wanted for many years?
Raise it yourself!”
She said she didn't want to, so Chen Yuanlue had no choice but to raise the child by himself. There were already enough things in the shop, so he had to leave the child to the wet nurse to take care of.
But within a year, when his daughter had just learned to walk, Chen Yuanlue's health became worse and worse. After only two months, he became ill and could no longer get pregnant.
The head of the Chen family was seriously ill. At first glance, outsiders thought he had lost both his aunt and his mother, which was a huge shock... Everyone heard when he brought in his aunt, who was nearly thirty years old. She was his childhood sweetheart.
Later, it was his mother. Within half a year, he lost his beloved woman and mother, and he couldn't bear it. In addition, he was so busy, so it was normal for him to fall ill.
Compared with his illness, outsiders were more concerned about the Chen family's business. Just when people with ulterior motives were ready to get a share of the pie, Chen Yuanlue handed over the business in his hands to Chu Yunli.
It was true that women were good at doing business, so everyone looked down upon her at first, but found that Mrs. Chen's skills were not inferior to Chen Yuanlue's, and soon everyone came to accept her.
As for Chen Yuanlue, he had only one breath left after being ill for half a year, and the only person left by his bedside at that time was Chu Yunli.
Within half a year, he had become much older. He pointed at Chu Yunli with a trembling hand, "Did... you hurt me..."
Chu Yunli looked at him without saying anything.
Chen Yuanlue also looked at her, and asked intermittently, "You have changed... When did I... feel sorry for you..."
Chu Yunli said calmly, "That happened in a previous life."
Chen Yuanlue is dead.
The funeral went smoothly. Since Chu Yunli had already been watching the business before, it had no impact at all.
Mrs. Hu had been ill, and Chen Yuanlue was also dead. She couldn't argue even if she wanted to. After the mourning period was over, she took her daughter and moved back to the Hu family. Anyway, the man was not here, and the Chen family was just a prison to her.
That's all.
The Chen family's business grew bigger and bigger in the hands of Chu Yunli. When Chen Xichao was fifteen years old, she handed over all the business belonging to the Chen family to him. At first, her methods were immature, but she taught him step by step for two years, and then she completely ignored him.
Already.
When Xianqin and the others got a little older, they were sent to a shop to learn business. After they got married, they often went back to the Chen family to visit her. They all seemed to regard themselves as daughters of the Chen family.
Chen Xichao had a bit of her legacy, and he was not merciless at all when making money. Because of her influence, he would always be more tolerant towards the poor. When he was eighteen years old, he married a well-matched girl and never paid any money in his life.
