Chapter 40 Past Enmity

Heng'e didn't know when it ended, every inch of her body seemed to have been dismantled and reassembled, even her fingers were sore and limp.

Chen Xi couldn't bear to continue to toss her, hugged her in his arms, and kissed her softly and tenderly on her soft hair, charming eye corners, smooth~tender snowy cheeks, soft red lips...

Heng'e was itchy by his actions, and pushed Chen Xi aside in disgust, Nuo Nuo spoke, her voice was hoarse, like an apple softened by hot oil, so crispy and sweet that it sticks to the teeth.

"Brother Bo Yang and I are not what you think. Our two families are relatives, very close."

Heng'e was never willing to talk about her family in front of Chen Xi.Even before she had a falling out with the Choi family.

Chen Xi knew that between the two of them, there was always a clear and distinct Chu River and Han boundary.

Heng'e cut a gap between them with a sharp sword, and never allowed herself to cross it.Chen Xi could guess that this was her resentment towards the Chen family who had nowhere to vent their pressure. Chen Xi was willing to do everything in his power to fill this gap, but gaps are everywhere.

Over time, Chen Xi could only carefully avoid those topics.

If he hadn't met Heng'e, someone had told him that one day he would shoot the dog because he was so humble because of his love for a girl.Now, he wanted to kill all those wild men who wanted to seduce his wife, cut their bodies apart, and made them regret coming to this world!

But now, Heng'e is willing to take the initiative to bring up the past that she never wanted to tell.At that moment, Chen Xi could hardly believe her ears.

The brave man held up the indomitable sword of light and came to the princess' castle. Will the princess be willing to open the door for this man who is not a prince?Even the brave are willing to sacrifice their blood and young life for the beautiful princess.

Heng'e's soft voice interrupted Chen Xi's thoughts.

"The Cui family, behind those glamorous things, there is a pile of dust several feet high." Hang'e nestled in Chen Xi's arms, tearing up those bloody wounds with her own hands, and I don't know if it hurts more than the first injury. .

Heng'e doesn't want to think about the past, because her past, more than ten years, has always been intertwined with another person, like two twigs growing on a tree. Breathing is ambiguous and sticky.

On a good day and a beautiful day, what kind of day will it be enjoyable? Whose courtyard?

Flying in the morning and rolling in the evening, clouds and green pavilions, rain and wind, smoke and waves painting boats.

People in Jinping look at this time so cheap!

It was raining patter outside the window, and in the bedroom, the fire wall was extremely burning, and the room was warm, without a trace of chill from the cold night of early spring.

Heng'e was covered with a thin wool blanket, which was entangled with Chen Xi's limbs. Although her sleepy upper and lower eyelids were fighting, Heng'e didn't want to sleep, but in this place she felt she didn't love. In the arms of the man, he recounted those young days in a hurry.

"I had three grandmothers. My biological grandmother gave birth to my father. My grandmother and grandfather had always had a good relationship, but my father died of a sudden illness when he was seven years old. So my grandfather married my grandmother's sister, who is my father's My aunt came in, and my second grandmother gave birth to my second uncle, third uncle, and eldest aunt. She spent the longest time with my grandfather, and then she also left; and then my third grandmother. In one place, four children were born in seven years, and the body was broken. Zhong Boyang is the grandson of my father's natal family and the grandnephew of my biological grandmother."

Although Chen Xi had investigated the Cui family, he did not connect Zhong Boyang who appeared tonight with the Zhong family at all.

As far as he knew, his mother-in-law, Mrs. Cui, disliked the Zhong family very much. After taking power, she broke off relations with the Zhong family, and his father-in-law also seemed to have no attachment to the outsiders.Chen Xi was shocked, he didn't expect Zhong Wei and his wife to have a serious cousin relationship again.

Chen Xi's reaction was not surprising, Heng'e curled her lips in self-mocking, just like the Red Mansion said, in Jia's mansion, only the pair of stone lions in front of the door are clean, and their Cui family is the same.

"Aren't you surprised that my parents have such a close relationship with Zhong's family, why my parents hardly communicate with Zhong's family. Actually, it's because my mother hates and poisons Zhong's family, and she doesn't even want to do it to save face."

Chen Xi, who was still listening casually, became curious by Heng'e's words. What kind of outrageous things did the Zhong family do to offend his slick mother-in-law?
Noticing that Heng'e's voice was dry when she spoke, Chen Xi got out of bed and poured a cup of warm water from the thermos, and handed it to her lips.

"It's a long story, and it involves the grievances of the previous generation." Hang'e leaned in Chen Xi's arms, drank the water in the cup slowly, moistened her hoarse throat, and told Chen Xi about the past and the past. Come.

"My mother and my father made a marriage contract since childhood, but when my mother was about to marry, the Cui family regretted the marriage."

Chen Xi paused the hand that was playing with Heng'e's hair, her eyes were full of surprise: "I think father-in-law and mother-in-law have a very good relationship."

Heng'e chuckled, with a slightly smug smile: "Of course. When my mother was young, she was beautiful and beautiful, and she was regarded as a goddess by all the sons and brothers in Xuancheng. I don't know how many people secretly envy my father for being lucky enough to embrace such a beautiful woman." .”

This delicate and proud expression made Chen Xi's heart so soft that Chen Xi kissed her with a smile: "When I see you, I can see the demeanor of my mother-in-law back then."

Heng'e smiled lightly: "I was raised in a deep boudoir and no one knew me. But my mother is a leader among the ladies in Xuancheng. Her makeup and clothes are all imitated by girls in Xuancheng. My father loves my mother very much. , I spent more time in Shen's house than in my own."

Heng'e seemed to see the pair of young men and women who fell in love with each other through a long time, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Chen Xi was puzzled: "Then how could the father-in-law regret the marriage?"

Heng'e shook her head: "The one who wants to regret the marriage is not my father, but the Cui family."

"When my grandmother passed away, my father had already remembered. Although my second step-grandmother was my father's aunt, my father was very disdainful of the Zhong family who had declined and could only rely on marriage to maintain the family's glory. Originally, my grandfather didn't want his wife and sister to marry in, but he had a lot of affection for my grandmother, so in order to help the Zhong family, he acquiesced.

So far, the Zhong family has found a shortcut to climb the dragon and become the phoenix, and they want to give my father a girl of the right age in the family.But the Cui family has a rule of forty to have no children before taking a concubine. Although my father's marriage was personally arranged by my grandmother before her death, the Zhong family still took my father's idea, even if they knew my father and my father. The fiancée has a very deep affection, Shen's family background is by no means comparable to that of the Zhong's family, and she is still trying to become the first wife. "

Chen Xi didn't know what to say. The Zhong family seemed to be a poor family. If he was Heng'e's grandfather, he would never let his wife and sister in.Chen Xi complained secretly, and Heng'e's faint voice came from his ear.

"Some people, the bottoms of their feet are really muddy. If they don't want to get their shoes dirty, they can only walk over the mud. Who would have thought that this kind of mud is the most disgusting.

My father has a cousin named Huanniang, who was taken to live with Cui's family by my step-grandmother when she was ten years old.On my father's 20th birthday, I somehow got into my father's house.The father ruined the cousin's innocence, and the uncle came to persecute her, but the father was determined not to regret the marriage.

After the incident happened, my father kowtowed in front of my mother to make amends, and finally got my mother's forgiveness. My mother even allowed the girl from Nazhong's family to come in for the sake of the overall situation.

However, my grandfather was afraid of ruining the reputation of the Cui family, so he canceled the engagement with the Shen family instead of my father, but one of the conditions was that my step-grandmother had to commit suicide.My step-grandmother was naturally unwilling, so my grandfather asked the maid to hold her down and fed her a cup of arsenic~shuang with his own hands...

Now that it was over, my step-grandmother had come to terms with it, and my grandfather thought my father would let it go.Who would have thought that my father knelt in the ancestral hall for three days and three nights, but still insisted on marrying my mother.

Just when my grandfather couldn't hold back my father and wanted to let go, the Zhong family had to look forward to Shu, and felt that they had lost my step-grandmother, a married aunt.

On the side of the Shen family, my mother knew that there was no way around the divorce.When the Cui family came to withdraw the engagement, she twisted her hair in front of the room, saying that she was going to be a sister-in-law.

My grandfather was suddenly caught in a dilemma.

The Zhong family saw that my mother had a strong personality and would rather bend than bend. They were afraid that things would change if it was too late, so they bribed a concubine of my grandfather. "

Heng'e paused at this point, with a hint of contempt in her tone: "Speaking of my grandfather, although he was very capable, he kept the flowers in the Shen family's business, but he didn't repair them, spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife. The Zhong family took advantage of this loophole and paid a lot of money to buy off my grandfather's concubine, so that my grandfather would marry my mother to a warlord in another province.

My grandmother is a woman who can't stand like dough. She can't go out to socialize outside, and she doesn't even know the art of imperial servants. Although she gave birth to a son and two daughters for my grandfather, she has no dignity in front of my grandfather.

As the eldest daughter, my mother suffered a lot from concubines and servants for the sake of the younger siblings, so she developed her current scheming, and was evenly matched with my grandfather's beloved concubine.

Grandfather's plan was passed on to my mother by her close friends.She didn't tell anyone, and went to Cui's house alone with her capable maids and servants. In front of the Cui's mansion where people come and go, she said that she would never marry, and a white silk was thrown on the Cui's plaque. He must be hanged in front of Cui's house to show his ambition.

The entire Cui family was alarmed, and my grandfather came outside the gate of the house.Of course, throwing a relic would not work, so my mother took out the scissors hidden in her sleeve, and stabbed my chest in front of my grandfather... The name of Shen's daughter's chastity was spread all over Xuancheng, and my grandfather and my grandfather cast a war on rats, for the sake of the two families. Reputation, no one dared to persecute my mother, so the two marriages were naturally shelved.

My mother was disheartened, and went to live alone in the Guzi Temple outside the city for more than half a year, and my father finally compromised, and the marriage between Cui Zhong and his family gradually began to be arranged. "
