Chapter 11: The Merchant Widowed After Her Husband Fakes His Death (1)
In the original space of the system, Su Li restored his illusory soul body and looked at the client in front of him tenderly, "The mission is completed, and it's time for you to reincarnate!"
"Okay, thank you!"
The resentment around Wen Qing, who was originally in a disheveled state, disappeared instantly. She bowed to Su Li, then turned and left.
[Host, this is the power of merit transformed from her resentment. I will give it to you now! ]
As soon as the system finished speaking, a golden light appeared on Su Li's body, and his soul became much more solid.
After the golden light on her body disappeared, the system continued, [Host, the next client has appeared, please accept the client! ]
Su Li: “…”
If you don’t know how to use words in this system, don’t use them randomly!
What does it mean to receive guests?
Soon, a white-haired old lady appeared, holding a white round plate in her hand and looking miserable.
"Old man, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Tell me!"
The old lady looked around and asked, "Where is this?"
"This is a place that can help you fulfill your unfulfilled wishes. Once your wishes are fulfilled, you can be reincarnated." Su Li explained softly.
The old lady looked distrustful, "Really? I have diligently served my mother-in-law and the Li family all my life, but in the end I ended up as a wandering ghost! Can you really help me fulfill my wish?"
She looked at Su Li, with a miserable expression and reluctance, "Then my wish is to make that family live in poverty for the rest of their lives! Why did they lie to me all my life? They let me be a widow all my life, while they can enjoy the happiness of family life!"
"Okay, then you just stay here and watch me make them get their comeuppance!"
Su Li nodded and began to accept the old lady's memories.
Afterwards, her figure disappeared into the system's original space.
When she opened her eyes again, Su Li was sitting in an ancient room. The objects in the room were all exquisite and they were obviously dowry items.
Looking at the pot of black orchid on the windowsill, he sorted out the client's memory again.
Her original name was Gu Suyun, and her father was an imperial merchant in the capital, rich enough to rival a country.
She is his only precious daughter.
When Gu Suyun was fifteen years old, her father carefully selected a good son-in-law, who was Li Yi, the third son of the general's family.
Moreover, it was the Li family who took the initiative to propose marriage for the third son Li Yi, which really surprised and delighted Gu's father.
Although Li Yi had neither powerful martial arts nor a wealth of knowledge of scriptures compared to his two brothers, he just relied on his father's connections to get a sinecure in the army.
But for Gu's father, who has never been able to integrate into the circle of dignitaries, this is also a very noble family!
If Li Yi was too outstanding, there would be no chance for a merchant family like them to marry into the general's mansion.
However, after some inquiries, Gu's father found out that the general's family was short of money due to the war and their income was not enough to make ends meet, so they married her precious daughter to become the principal wife of the young master of the Li family. She became the head of the household as soon as she entered the house.
Money is the thing that the Gu family has no shortage of!
Therefore, Gu's father happily prepared a ten-mile long red wedding dowry, a hundred loads of dowry, half of the shops in the capital, five thousand acres of fertile land outside the city, and ten farms as a dowry!
It can be said that the entire family fortune was given as a dowry to the daughter!
However, on the night when Li Yi and Gu Suyun got married, Li Yi just lifted the veil and left in a hurry.
The reason turned out to be that the current emperor had issued an urgent order, ordering General Li to lead all the soldiers in the army to the border to resist foreign enemies!
Afterwards, a series of unfortunate news came. General Li's poor command resulted in the death of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the border. The eldest and second sons of the Li family died in the battle, and General Li also committed suicide out of fear of punishment!
The emperor was furious and ordered his men to arrest Li Yi, the third son of the Li family, and bring him back to Beijing to find out what had happened.
However, news came back that Li Yi jumped off a cliff and died on the way back to Beijing, and his body was eaten by wild beasts!
Old Madam Li cried all day long, and all she said was that it was Gu Suyun's fault, saying that it was her marriage to the General's Mansion that brought misfortune to the Mansion.
Even the servants in Li's mansion and her two sisters-in-law treated her coldly.
Fortunately, the emperor was wise and did not pursue the matter further. He simply confiscated all the property of the Li family, and no men within three generations were allowed to enter the court!
The dowries of the three daughters-in-law of the Li family and Old Madam Li were not confiscated. However, before marrying the original body, Old Madam Li had almost squandered her own dowry and the dowries of the first and second wives.
Seeing this, the two sisters-in-law returned to their parents' home with their meager dowries.
Only Gu Suyun felt guilty and thought it was really her fault, so she was willing to stay and serve Madam Li and Li Yi's two brothers' concubines and illegitimate sons and daughters.
In this way, she served the old man diligently for decades without giving up her identity as Li Yi's widow. She also gave some of her fertile land and shops to the first and second wives for their children to marry.
Until one day, her servant saw her husband Li Yi, who had jumped off a cliff and died long ago, in a manor outside the city where she had never been!
At this time, Li Yi had already married his childhood sweetheart, his cousin, and was enjoying the happiness of family life with his children and grandchildren.
Gu Suyun couldn't believe it and went to verify it in person. After seeing the heartwarming scene with her own eyes, she vomited blood and died with her eyes open!
After her death, she saw that her remains were thrown into a mass grave and eaten by wild beasts!
Li Yi moved in with his children and grandchildren as the adopted sons of the Li family, and enjoyed the dowry she left behind with everyone in the Li family, laughing at her stupidity!
Su Li, who had experienced all of Gu Suyun's memories, exhaled softly, looked at her delicate and beautiful face in the mirror, and asked the system softly, "System, which year did you send me to?"
[It is the second year after Li Yi faked his death. Now Li Yi has found his true love, his cousin is pregnant with his child, and he has just contacted Madam Li.]
"Oh, I see."
Su Li had a plan in mind and was about to get up.
"Young Madam, the old lady said she has something to ask you, so she wants you to go to the front hall."
The voice of the Li Mansion's maid came from outside the door.
"Why are you shouting? My lady is not feeling well and is resting. If you have anything to say, wait until she wakes up!"
It was the voice of Dong'er, Gu Suyun's maid who came with her as a dowry.
"Not feeling well? She's not dying! The old lady said that as long as she's not dead, we should go see her. Why don't you wake her up quickly? You know, the old lady is still the head of this house!"
There was arrogance and disdain in the maid's voice.
"you!"
Dong'er was extremely angry.
"What's wrong? Do you still want to hit me? What's there to be proud of as a maid of a merchant's wife?"
There was a strong sense of disgust in the maid's voice.
Su Li raised his eyebrows and moved the spiritual power in his hand.
"Snapped!"
The maid outside the door was slapped in the face for no reason.
She covered her face in fear and looked up and down, left and right, "Who? Who is it?"
It was clearly just her and Dong'er, and she had been staring at Dong'er, who hadn't made any move. So why did she get slapped in the face for no reason?
Dong'er, who was standing opposite her, was also shocked. What happened?
