After the evil sister took over, all the best went crazy

Chapter 131: Qi Family Affairs

You have to know that Su Rongrong is the key figure hidden in that unfinished novel, and the reward for helping her was just three months of life.

These three months and three years should have been ten times more difficult, or even more!

Su Rongrong had just put the soup dumplings on the steamer. The moment she looked up, she saw out of the corner of her eye that Baili Zheng looked a little unnatural.

She was a little confused, but didn't say anything.

After finishing their meal in the morning, they went into the study, and she asked, "Brother Zheng, I saw that you looked a little strange in the kitchen just now. What's going on?"

Baili Zheng had nothing to hide from her and immediately told her the task assigned by the system.

At last he sighed deeply and said, "I don't think it will be too smooth this time."

Although Su Rongrong had already prepared herself mentally, she still felt a little uncomfortable after hearing it.

No matter what, you still have to look for it carefully.

Not to mention anything else, what if she is lucky enough to meet him?

Also, her brother Zheng is said to have died in modern times, having been crushed to death by a falling ceiling.

If they were to be wiped out directly, it would mean that there would be no going back, and there would never be such a person in this world again.

So, no matter what, they have to work harder.

Thinking of this, she comforted him, "Brother Zheng, I found that I am a lucky person.

He was an orphan since childhood and did not suffer much.

When I grew up and needed money to go to school, I met you again.

Once I entered university, both my studies and career were going pretty smoothly.

Although I'm not rich, I'm better than most but better than most, which I think is not bad.

After coming here, within a few months, my messy life became well organized and my life became prosperous.

In this very cold weather, while others are starving and freezing, everyone in my family, young and old, is living comfortably.

Don’t worry about whose help I borrowed, the reality is there.

I think it might take less than half a year to find the person.

So, don’t worry!”

Because the door of the study was closed, Baili Zheng could not hide his emotions. He opened his arms and held her in his arms.

After just a moment, he let go.

Then he lowered his head and said something that made no sense: "You've grown about two or three centimeters taller than when I first saw you. Well, you look like you've gained some weight, too."

Su Rongrong: “…”

What a man who ruins the mood!

Forget it, I won’t bother with him!

Baili Zheng thought that he had said that Su Rongrong had gained weight, which made her unhappy, so he immediately said, "Rongrong, do you want to know about your mother's family situation?

Well, I'm talking about the situation in your maternal grandparents' home!"

Speaking of this, Su Rongrong also wanted to find an opportunity to investigate what was going on with that damn grandparents' house.

Her mother was kicked out of the house, and something must have happened to her aunt.

She nodded immediately, pretending to be listening attentively and said:

"Tell me quickly! I can't ask my aunt about this kind of thing, for fear of touching upon her sorrow, so I have never known anything about it."

Baili Zheng found a stool for himself to sit down, then took the tea that Su Rongrong took out from the space, took a sip to moisten his throat, and then spoke.

“There is a wealthy family called Qi in Muyang Prefecture, who are considered to be top-notch merchants in the prefecture.

The couple loved each other so much that they had a daughter.

Fearing that the family would suffer when his daughter grew up, he decided to marry her into the family despite the objections of his clansmen.

After careful selection, I finally chose a young man who looked very honest and smart.

When the young man first came to the door, he was really good. The older people took him around and taught him personally.

This teaching lasted for eight years.

During this period, Qi's daughter gave birth to two daughters.

The old couple only had one daughter, so they had no intention of having a son.

He dotes on his two granddaughters.

After being taught for eight years, the son-in-law of the Qi family's daughter gradually took control of the Qi family's property.

But as long as the old couple are still alive, it is not his turn to make the decisions in the family.

Once, the old couple went out to celebrate a friend's birthday, but they met bandits on the way and were killed.

The daughter of the Qi family had not been in good health since childhood and had been overprotected. When she heard the news, she felt as if the sky had fallen and fainted.

The funeral arrangements at home were taken care of by her live-in son-in-law.

From then on, the daughter of the Qi family was immersed in sorrow, became unhappy and had no interest in anything.

As a result, my health is getting worse and worse.

It can be said that within less than two years, the daughter of the Qi family died of illness.

Her death left behind two small children.

Faced with the Qi clan members who were eyeing him covetously, the son-in-law chose a divorced woman with a child as his second wife.

They said that she had given birth to children and they were their own family, so she would naturally take care of the children and would not mistreat them.

You can probably imagine what will happen next.

The stepmother is a daughter of the Qi family's branch branch, and the Qi family's property is in the hands of the son-in-law who lives with the family.

Aren’t they the ones who have the final say on everything in the Qi Mansion?

The stepmother could not tolerate the two girls who were left behind, and the daughter she brought with her was only one year younger than the eldest girl.

They are all girls of the Qi family, no matter if they were born to the original wife or brought in later, they are inevitably compared with each other.

This comparison is always criticized, isn't it annoying?

Especially the older girl, who was smart and pretty, was regarded as a thorn in their eyes.

As for the son-in-law, after his stepmother gave birth to a son and gave him the surname Li, he turned a blind eye to the family affairs.

Even later on, he began to feel that the two daughters left behind were quite an eyesore.

After all, he was a son-in-law, and all his food, accommodation and other necessities were provided by the Qi family.

When his two daughters grew up, it would be very disadvantageous to him whether they married out or married into his family.

Everyone knows that for a son-in-law who lives with his wife's family, the family property has nothing to do with him and belongs to the children.

It was impossible for him to leave his family business to the son with the same surname as him.

So, after some planning with the man he married later, he framed the eldest girl and drove her out of the house.

Unexpectedly, the older one married the scholar, and the younger girl pawned her own things to subsidize the older one.

He and the girl from the Qi family who he later married went all out. He used the older one to threaten the younger one and sold her to another province.

In order to prevent her from having a good life and to prevent her man from getting up, he sold her directly to a gambler and a butcher.

As for your father, they were wary of him because he was a scholar, a student on government stipend, and he lived far away in Lanxia County.

Fortunately, during those years, your father never went to the provincial capital to take the imperial examination, so everything was peaceful.

They were responsible for the previous accident in the city where many people lost their lives.

They know your father, and they are afraid that after your father passes the imperial examination, he will support your mother.

At that time they will have to hand over the Qi family’s property.

Do you think they can give in to such people?

So, your dad is dead!

This time when I was in the city, in addition to investigating your mother's affairs, I also thoroughly investigated this matter."
