Jiu Zhang Ji: The Daily Life of the Reborn Daughter

Chapter 49: No Relationship

After a day and a night of fermentation, the engagement between the Sixth Prince and the daughter of Duke Dingguo was known to almost everyone in the capital.

Bai Shi, Bai Junzhe and Bai Rouer knew about this matter from what Mrs. Li heard when she went to the street to buy vegetables.

After hearing what Mrs. Li said, Bai Rouer turned around and kicked open Lou Xinyue's door, then started punching and kicking Lou Xinyue who was lying on the bed.

"It's all your fault, bitch. If you hadn't seduced my brother, why would Qiao Lili be angry? If Qiao Lili wasn't angry, why would she ask for the money she spent? If those people hadn't been asking for the debt, why wouldn't the emperor have rewarded my brother, and why would he have canceled my brother's engagement with Qiao Lili?"

"If Qiao Lili came in with a dowry, I would have everything I want. Why would I have to live in this rat hole now?" Bai Rouer cursed and beat him. The violent gene in her body grew wildly, and she became more and more excited the more she beat him.

"You bitch, what do you have? All you know is to spread your legs and seduce my brother. Because of you, my brother has lost everything, and I have nothing too. I will beat you to death, I will just beat you to death." After all, she was a girl waiting to be married, and she didn't know when she learned these curse words from street shrews. Even flies and mosquitoes couldn't open their eyes when they heard them.

Lou Xinyue leaned over and protected her face with her arms. Bai Junzhe woke up in the clinic that day, so he bought her some ointment for healing. After applying the ointment, her face was much better. Bai Rouer must not be hurt again.

Lou Xinyue knew that begging for mercy and currying favor was useless at this moment, so she could only protect her face and let her vent her anger. Bai Rouer was tired of beating her, so she stopped and walked towards the door in a sad and haunted manner. She saw the chamber pot behind the door, which Mrs. Li had not taken out yet, so she grabbed the chamber pot and smashed it on Lou Xinyue's head.

Lou Xinyue rolled on the bed and dodged, not getting hit on the head. The chamber pot hit the head of the bed and broke. The several nocturnal urinations that had kept her awake all night soaked Lou Xinyue's head and body. The smell was terrible. The only consolation was that it was her own urine.

Bai Rouer returned to her room with a strange laugh. She lay on the bed for a while with no desire to live, but then she felt that she could not just wait to die like this, so she got up, washed her face and put on her makeup, put on her best dress, put on the few remaining jewelry, and dressed herself up with pearls and jade all over her head, looking very noble, like a fighting cock, and went out to the street to look for opportunities.

Bai Shi was unable to accept the reality because she was raped by the coachman, Lao Tu, and she was in a daze the whole time. When she heard from Mrs. Li that Qiao Lili and the Sixth Prince had already accepted the marriage proposal yesterday,

Concubine Yun came in person.

Concubine Yun, the emperor didn't dare to speak loudly in front of her. If she smiled at him, he would wish to grant amnesty to the whole country. It was a great honor and face for her to come to propose marriage in person.

Even if the Marquis' Mansion had not been stripped of its title, it would still be like an ant in front of others, let alone now.

When Li Pozi parroted, "People outside say that the marriage between Qiao Lili and the Sixth Prince was arranged by Lady Dingguo and Concubine Yun six years ago."

When Bai Junzhe heard this, he shouted angrily, "No, no, six years ago, Qiao Lili was engaged to me, how could it be someone else?"

Mrs. Li looked at the dumbstruck Bai, then glanced at the helpless and furious Bai Junzhe, and thought, a tiger with its teeth pulled out can't even stand up, what is it still shouting about?

Although he thought so in his heart, he pretended to be very innocent and respectful on the surface, lowering his head and whispering, "Everyone says, everyone says that it was the Madam who stole the Engagement Letter from the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion."

Bai Junzhe was shocked when he heard this. He struggled to stand up, but his fever had just subsided and he had no strength left. He could only shout at the top of his lungs, "Mom, mom, tell me what's going on."

Bai saw her son struggling and the gauze bandaging the wound was bleeding again. She hurried over to comfort him, "The engagement has been cancelled. She's engaged to someone else now. There's no chance for you and Qiao Lili anymore. What's the point of dwelling on this? Besides, she's hurt you like this now. I wish I could tear her into pieces."

"No, it does make sense." The reason for canceling the engagement was that they had been engaged for six years and she had belonged to him for six years. If the engagement never existed, then he and Qiao Lili would have never had any relationship. How could he accept this? How could he be willing to accept this!

Did he hate her? He wanted to hate her, but who did he hate? Qiao Lili had given him clothes, money, and food in the past four years. He always had a share of everything she gave to her father and brother. Now he was wearing boots made by her. It was said that she had prayed for him to wear plain clothes and eat vegetarian food in the past four years, but his feelings for her had long changed. He married her after returning to the capital because he had other intentions towards her.

It was his fault, Qiao Lili had never done anything wrong to him.

If she didn't marry her, she would be running for her life, but if she married him, she would be dead. In the Bai Mansion, he even started digging a dungeon to imprison her. If the Bai Mansion had not been sold, the dungeon would have been repaired by now.

But he was unwilling to give up. He was unwilling to give up now. After seeing Qiao Lili like that, he regretted it. He didn't want any more plans, he didn't want anything. As long as he could still marry her, he would definitely keep her at the top of his heart, love her, and pamper her.

"No, no, they are wrong, mother. Tell them, tell them that it was the wife of Duke Dingguo who personally said that Qiao Lili would be betrothed to me. It was she who fell in love with me." Bai Junzhe's cheeks twitched with excitement.

"Mom, tell me, tell me, what is going on?" Bai Junzhe's eyes were red with anger. He had lost a lot of weight in recent days, and his originally handsome face had become a little sour and mean. Making such an expression at this moment made him look scary and hideous.

When Bai saw Bai Junzhe's expression, she thought of the coachman Lao Tu and shuddered involuntarily. The feeling of being frightened came back to her. "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

"When I went to see Wen Xi that day, the mansion was in chaos. It was said that Qiao Lili had gone out alone. I walked into the bedroom and there was no one serving in the inner room."

"Wenxi was sleeping soundly. When she heard me come in, she thought it was Qiao Lili. She closed her eyes and murmured, "Lili, the engagement letter and the letter are in the drawer. Send them all over."

"She said it two or three times incoherently, and I finally understood it. I opened the drawer and saw Qiao Lili's engagement letter. I became greedy at that time. Wen Xi didn't seem to live for many days. When she died, I would say that the engagement letter was given to me by her and she wanted to marry Qiao Lili to you. Anyway, she was dead, and no one knew whether it was true or not. And the engagement letter was in my hands."

"I didn't expect that Wen Xi died before I left. I quickly took out the engagement letter and said that just now, Wen Xi had arranged a marriage between Li Li and my son before he died. I returned home and immediately sent your engagement letter to him."

"Because it was Wen Xi's last wish, and the old Duke's wife loved Wen Xi the most, she had to obey even though she was reluctant, so she accepted your engagement letter and tacitly agreed to your engagement."

After listening to Bai's account of what happened at that time, it turned out that this was the case. It turned out that he and Qiao Lili had always been like clouds in the sky and mud on the ground, with no intersection at all.

Bai Junzhe was so angry that he fainted. Bai was in a panic and had no choice but to ask Mrs. Li to ask the beggar to send a letter to the coachman, the old butcher, asking him to drive the carriage to take Bai Junzhe to the clinic.
