The wife of a marquis died tragically and was divorced. After her rebirth, she killed people everywh

Xie Xiangyu and her daughter saw Master Feng and his wife off to the door and watched the carriage go away before turning back.

?

"Liu Zheng, why did the Feng family suddenly want to recognize you as their goddaughter?" Xie Xiangyu still felt that the Feng family's sudden proposal of goddaughter was unusual, which made her feel inexplicably uneasy.

?

Xie Liuzheng smiled and said, "Didn't Master Feng and Madam Feng say that? Firstly, they wanted to repay me for saving their lives, and secondly, they liked my lively personality."

?

Xie Xiangyu was both angry and amused, poking Xie Liuzheng's forehead, "It's just a polite remark, do you take it seriously?"

?

"You are boasting about yourself, and you have no shame."

?

Xie Liuzheng just smiled but refused to say that she asked Qiuyue to spread gossip about the Feng family's ungratefulness.

?

Seeing that she couldn't get any further, Xie Xiangyu stopped asking and said with some emotion, "You've grown up now and have your own ideas. This is a good thing. No matter how strong and how much I love you, I can't be with you forever. When I get old, you'll have to live your life on your own."

?

"I'm so happy that you can get things done sooner. But Liu Zheng, you have to remember one thing: people are not stronger than fate, so you have to be gentle when you need to be gentle."

?

This is Xie Xiangyu's understanding of half her life. If we talk about strength, no one in Yangzhou dares to say that she is stronger than Xie Xiangyu.

?

When Mr. Xie suddenly passed away, the Xie family united to force her to give up the position of head of the family. She held a hatchet in her hand and blocked the door, chopping anyone who dared to approach, no matter which uncle or brother the other person was.

?

He persisted in a stalemate with the Xie family for three days and three nights, and finally managed to save most of the family property.

?

After that, she entered the business world as a woman and suffered countless doubts and contempt. However, she used tougher means than men and made the Xie family the richest family in Yangzhou in this male-dominated world.

?

When mentioning Xie Xiangyu's name, some people may say that she is self-deprecating and does not abide by her duties, but no one dares to say that she is not strong enough.

?

But after being strong for half her life, she couldn't even keep Qin Guangjin, her son-in-law, under control. Now, only Xie Liuzheng was left to depend on her. In the dead of night, Xie Xiangyu asked herself countless times whether a woman should be strong.

?

If she had been weaker at the beginning, perhaps her fate would have been different...

?

Xie Liuzheng did not agree with Xie Xiangyu's words. A woman who had handed her life and property over to a man and was confined to the inner house was almost isolated from the world.

?

What he gambled everything on was the man's conscience.

?

Hasn’t she experienced enough bitterness in her previous life?

?

Fearing that Xie Xiangyu would worry, Xie Liuzheng did not refute, but nodded with a smile, "Mother is right, I will definitely keep it in mind, you just don't worry."

?

Xie Xiangyu spent 100,000 taels to host a banquet to celebrate the marriage between the Feng and Xie families.

?

She hired several of Yangzhou's best chefs at a high price, and used only the best delicacies from land and sea.

?

Not only were a hundred tables set up in Feng's mansion, but there was also a buffet at the door. Anyone from all walks of life, as long as they said congratulations, could sit down and enjoy the delicious food.

?

What is most shocking is the fine wine she had people collect from all over the country.

?

Wine is a very delicate thing. It will turn sour and turbid if shaken too vigorously. The Xie family has acquired so many kinds of fine wine in a short period of time, and the cost of transportation and horses is several times or even dozens of times higher than the wine itself.

?

Decades later, people would still talk about this banquet and marvel at the wealth of the Xie family.

?

Let’s not talk about this later for now.

?

On the day of the wine, Xie Liuzheng was woken up by the maid early in the morning, took a bath, changed clothes, put on some light makeup, and combed her long hair into a complicated and dignified hairstyle. Then she got on the carriage and went to Feng's house.

?

First, he paid his respects to Madam Feng, and then was led by the madam's maid to meet the eldest master and his wife.

?

The master had nothing to say, he accepted the tea offered by Xie Liuzheng and gave her a bag. Madam Feng looked at Xie Liuzheng gently for a while, patted her hands, took off a pair of jade bracelets from her wrists, and put them on her hands.

?

"This is what my mother gave me when I got married. You can wear it. Don't despise it."

?

After saying these few words, she tilted her head and covered her mouth and started coughing. Master Feng quickly patted her on the back.

?

"I told you to take a good rest but you insisted on getting up. Liu Zheng is not a stranger, how can I blame you for being rude?"

?

Madam Feng endured the itch in her throat, raised her head and smiled gently, "I'm fine. I've been resting for half my life. If resting is useful, this disease would have been cured long ago."

?

"I know Liu Zheng is well-behaved and sensible, and she will definitely not pick my gift, but I also want to see her."

?

Xie Liuzheng stood up, feeling a little at a loss.

?

Madam Feng patted her arm soothingly. "My body has been broken for more than 20 years. I lie in bed all day and count the days. I am very bored. Finally, a lovely girl came. Naturally, I want to meet you and talk to you."

?

Only after Xie Liuzheng said a few polite words did Doctor Feng let her out.

?

On the way back to the old lady's room, the maid introduced the eldest lady's situation without saying anything.

?

The birth of her first child was a difficult one and she died. The first wife also suffered physical injuries and has been ill ever since.

?

Xie Liuzheng didn't know what to say, so she just smiled and passed it off. But she was thinking, judging from the attitude of the master towards the mistress, it didn't seem like he disliked her. Maybe not all men in this world are so heartless?

?

For some unknown reason, she asked the maid, "How many girls are there in the master's family?" In fact, she wanted to ask whether the master had taken concubines and had children.

?

The maid didn't think too much and answered directly: "There are only four young ladies, but no young masters."

?

So, a man can be affectionate with one woman and have children with another woman?

?

In the eyes of the world, as long as a man does not favor a concubine over his wife, he can be considered a good man.

?

Xie Liuzheng felt mixed emotions, and when he came in front of the old lady, there was still a bit of melancholy on his face.

?

The old lady noticed that something was wrong with her and suspected that she had been upset somewhere, but she couldn't ask her directly, so she started chatting with her about family matters.

?

Xie Liuzheng realized that he was in the Feng family and could not be disrespectful in any way, so he gathered his spirits and agreed to the old lady's request.

?

But a moment later, the servant came to report: "The auspicious time is almost here, please ask Miss Xie to go to the main hall to pay her respects."

?

Xie Liuzheng bid farewell to the old lady and followed the servants to the front hall.

?

The main hall was already full of friends and relatives, all with smiles on their faces and festive words. When they saw Xie Liuzheng coming out, they all gave him friendly and amicable smiles.

?

As the concierge said: "The auspicious time has arrived!"

?

The congratulations from relatives and friends were endless, and passers-by at the buffet outside the door were also shouting festive words towards the door.

?

No one noticed that there was an inconspicuous carriage parked at the entrance of the alley, with the curtains half rolled up, revealing a pair of hateful eyes.

?

"You little bitch, you are so valued by the Feng family. Aren't you afraid that you will be struck by lightning one day because of your poor luck and fate?"

?

Qin Guangjin stared in the direction of the Feng family, grappling with his teeth and cursing.

?

Sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man in a green robe and blue jacket with a small moustache. He lowered his eyes to hide his disdain.
