Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

After hearing what He Shuzhen said, He's father's face turned paler and paler. "Selling low-quality cotton is not a big problem. You just need to go to the government office to make connections. Now that someone has died, the government office will not let them go. Fortunately, Liu Chen is not the main culprit, he was just dismissed from his official position. You should feel lucky, otherwise you will be a widow for the rest of your life."

He Shuzhen didn't come here to listen to what his father said: "Of course I know these things. I came to you to ask you to think of a way to let Liu Chen continue to stay in the capital."

"If you want Liu Chen to stay in the capital, there are many ways. You can do business."

He Shuzhen glanced at his father who was talking without any backache: "If Liu Chen knew how to do business, I wouldn't have to come to you. You can help him in the government, in a certain position, even as a yamen runner."

He's father sighed: "Liu Chen was dismissed from his post because of a crime. He can no longer continue to work in public office. You should just give up on this idea!"

He also couldn't bear to see He Shuzhen suffer any injustice: "You were the one who wanted to marry Liu Chen in the first place, so you have to bear the consequences of today's suffering. Besides, there's nothing wrong with doing business. At least it can provide you with food and clothing."

"How can that be? Among the workers, peasants, scholars and merchants, merchants are at the bottom. I am the second daughter of the He family, and I want to become the wife of a merchant. Do you want me to become a laughing stock in the capital?"

He's father's expression became serious: "I tried my best to persuade you not to do that. You two are not a good match. Did you listen to me? Now that you are making a scene here, I can't help Liu Chen."

He Shuzhen was so angry that she burst into tears: "Ever since Bai Lian came to the He Mansion, you have been helping me and my mother to leave her alone. I see that you have been so fascinated by Bai Lian that you don't even want me and my mother anymore."

Hearing this, Father He had a headache. If he helped Liu Chen and got a position in the government, his official career would be over. "Don't blame your father for being cruel. I really can't do this. You'll have to take care of yourself in the future."

After saying that, he ignored He Shuzhen and went back to the study.

He Shuzhen looked at Chen Lerong who was standing beside her.

Chen Lerong couldn't solve this matter either: "It's useless for you to look at me. I'm just a woman in a deep house. I can't help Liu Chen."

He Shuzhen cried out: "Mother, please save me, I don't want to go to the countryside to farm."

"You're already married, what can I do? Fortunately, I've saved a lot of private money over the years. If you need money in the future, I can give it to you."

At this time, He Shuzhen completely collapsed. Thinking that all this was caused by He Shulan, she left He Mansion angrily and went to the Prince's Mansion.

The gatekeeper stopped them. They received an order from the Princess of the County. He Shuzhen came to the Prince of the County Mansion and they blocked her outside the mansion: "The Princess of the County has not recovered yet, so she won't see any guests."

He Shuzhen suppressed her anger and showed a stiff smile on her face: "I heard that my sister was not feeling well, so I came to the Prince's Mansion to visit her. Go and tell her now."

The servant almost rolled his eyes at He Shuzhen. He Shuzhen was the one that the Princess of the County was most reluctant to see. "The Princess of the County is so sick that she can't get up from her bed. She really can't see guests. You should go back first. Come back when the Princess of the County is better."

He Shuzhen lost her patience and put away the smile on her face: "She has been out of the cell for so many days, her body should have recovered, almost recovered. Maybe she knew that Liu Chen's official position was dismissed, and she felt guilty, so she didn't dare to see me."

The servant was almost laughing out of anger at He Shuzhen's confusing right and wrong words. Everyone knew that it was Liu Chen who found the Princess Consort.

The Princess gave Liu Chen the opportunity to make money, but Liu Chen did not cherish it and sold low-quality cotton to the Princess.

The Princess was arrested and thrown into the cell: "I am a servant, and the Princess is the master. I dare not speculate what she is thinking. The order I received is that the Princess is not feeling well and cannot see guests."

He Shuzhen stopped pretending and stood at the gate, shouting hysterically, "He Shulan caused Liu Chen to lose his official position. She must give me an explanation."

The servant ignored He Shuzhen and closed the red side door. The Prince's Mansion covered such a large area that He Shuzhen could continue shouting outside.

Anyway, it won’t disturb the master inside.

At the gate, He Shuzhen, who had been shouting for a long time, was too tired to speak and had to return empty-handed.

The servant hiding inside heard the sound of the carriage leaving, and immediately found the Princess Consort and told her about He Shuzhen's making a fuss at the door.

He Shulan waved to the servant and said, "I understand. You continue to guard the door and don't let He Shuzhen in."

"I definitely won't do that. Didn't you see her making such a scene at the gate? She doesn't look like a lady from a rich family, she looks like a shrew."

He Shulan smiled and said, "She's starting to get anxious." She didn't say anything else.

Wait for the servant guarding the gate to leave.

Chun Xia walked to He Shulan's side and said, "If we let the Second Miss make a scene outside the gate of the Prince's Mansion, the neighbors will gossip about us."

"If He Shuzhen wants to make a scene, what can I do? Let the neighbors say whatever they want. I can't stop them anyway."

He Shulan looked so worried that Chunxia kept shaking her head. Only He Shulan could bear it. If it were someone else, they would have given up long ago.

……

Bai Lian's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and soon it was time for her to give birth.

Just after finishing breakfast, I felt a slight stomachache, so the midwife came to He's house early.

After a careful examination, he confirmed that Bai Lian was about to give birth, and immediately asked the servants to prepare.

Bai Lian was lying on the bed, her stomach was hurting more and more, and she couldn't help but screaming loudly.

He's father, who was standing outside the door, paced back and forth anxiously, praying constantly, hoping that Bai Lian could give birth to a son for him.

However, Chen Lerong really did not want Bai Lian to give birth to a son. Once Bai Lian gave birth to a son, her position in the He family would be in jeopardy.

Servants were going in and out of the room carrying hot water.

This was Bai Lian’s first baby, and she tried to give birth to it for a long time but failed.

He's father was so anxious that he shouted outside: "What happened? Was the baby born?"

The midwife was also very anxious. Fortunately, Bai Lian was not in danger of life: "The baby hasn't been born yet, but it will be soon. Master He, please wait patiently outside."

There was no other way, so Father He could only wait outside. When he heard Bai Lian's miserable cries coming from the room, he became very worried.

It was not until dark that Bai Lian finally gave birth to her baby. The loud cry made He's father very excited.

Standing outside the door, he asked loudly, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

The midwife came out holding the baby, smiling: "Congratulations, Mr. He, you finally have a son."

He's father lifted up the clothes, took a look, confirmed that it was a boy, and laughed happily: "The He family has an heir."
