Reborn to marry, she no longer wants to be the young master's mother

"follow me."

The old man looked at Xie Chaochao with satisfaction in his red eyes, then turned and stepped back. “This is not the place to talk. I guess you don’t quite understand what this place is for, otherwise, you should have come to me a long time ago.”

Xie Chaochao had indeed just found out about this place.

My mother's book did not go into detail about the events.

The two of them walked towards the basement together, and the other party slowly spit it out.

"Little girl, your mother's identity is very special. We are responsible for protecting your mother. Before she died, she asked us to protect you, but your father tried to stop us, causing us to suffer heavy losses. We were unable to do so and thousands of our brothers were killed, so we put the matter on hold. However, we discovered that your father was not the only one who killed your mother, and we cannot investigate the real murderer."

Xie Chaochao frowned, slightly puzzled, "How could my mother die when she has such powerful people like you?"

"I don't know."

The old man stood in front of the cabinet and handed her a package personally, saying nostalgically, "I am your mother's most capable assistant. You can call me Uncle Long. Before your mother passed away, she specifically told me not to resent your father and not to tell you the truth. But since you have come to me, I have to tell you."

"I'm old, and I don't want to go into the coffin with regrets."

Xie Chaochao stroked the package, feeling uneasy. He didn't expect that there was another hidden story behind his mother's death.

"After your mother left, the guards who protected her no longer exist. Only a few are still there to support you until your arrival. Now that I have told you, I don't know where to go."

Long Bo had a sad expression and his hunched back became even more bent.

"I will avenge my mother, and I need your help."

Xie Chaochao spoke every word with determination, which made Long Bo excited and trembling. After a long while, he nodded heavily.

"it is good!"

If Xie Chaochao were to live his life again, he would never let it go to waste. He could also use this advantage and turn it into a sharp blade behind him.

……

It was already early morning when Xie Chaochao returned to the Chu residence. She packed up simply and went to bed. In her dream, the man's call and the burning fire came back to her again.

He kept telling himself not to sleep.

He said he would take me to see the sea of ​​flowers that I always wanted to visit when I was a child.

How could she not keep her promise and die so easily?

Xie Chaochao was awakened by the fire. She raised her hand and looked at the lines on her palm. The sea of ​​flowers was a term she casually referred to when she was playing with a little brother when she was a child. She never saw him again the next day.

Who is this person? Why does the voice sound so familiar?

"Where's my cousin's wife?"

Liu Fengling's voice came from outside the door.

"Still sleeping, cousin...you can't come in..."

"Why can't I come in? It's already past noon, which girl would sleep till now? Let me in."

Liu Fengling could find Xie Chaochao's weakness, saying she was a lazy guy. The Chu family was a general's mansion, and everyone, young or old, regardless of gender, got up early, but she was lazy.

Just as he broke free from the maid's restraints, the door was opened with a bang.

The sun shone on Xie Chaochao, lengthening her thin figure. She looked at Liu Fengling coldly, "What's the matter?"

Liu Fengling quickly hid her dissatisfaction, hugged her arm, and complained coquettishly, "Good sister-in-law, you see, I just wanted to call you to eat, but your maid stopped me! Sister-in-law, you have to make the decision for me."

If you don’t know, you would think they have a very good relationship.

Seeing Xie Chaochao's look, the maid quickly knelt on the ground, "I'm sorry, Madam... I..."

"It's okay." Xie Chaochao helped her up and looked back at Liu Fengling. "Does the Chu family rule prohibit trespassing? Miss Chu, you are a lady from a wealthy family, how can you be so unruly?"

Being attacked by cold words, Liu Fengling's face changed slightly, but she quickly pretended to be aggrieved, "Cousin, you are not still holding a grudge against me for what I said at the dinner table yesterday, are you? I'm sorry, don't blame me, I am also doing this for the good of the Chu family."

"When my uncle led the army to fight, my cousin and I went through life and death together, and we almost got engaged. But because of an unintentional remark that was heard by the thieves, we were defeated, the Chu family was hurt, and I was put on hold. I am not familiar with you, so it is inevitable that I will be more careful. Don't be angry."

All his words were about how good his relationship with Chu Heng was, but in fact he was implying that he was the outsider.

But Liu Fengling is also a fool. He reveals his weaknesses and waits for others to take advantage of them.

Xie Chaochao smiled and said, "I'm really sorry. I'll be the first one to become the main wife. Even if you marry me, you can only be considered a concubine."

Liu Fengling's face darkened slightly. She looked at Xie Chaochao's face and found that women in ancient times were feudal. It was shameful for them to be so frank and content to let their husbands take concubines.

Not as open-minded as her, a young girl from the 21st century.

She sneered, "What's wrong with having three wives and four concubines? Love lasts a lifetime."

After traveling through time, she realized one thing: Chu Heng and the emperor were her targets. One was a favored child of heaven, and the other was a general who was second only to the emperor. Both had immeasurable futures. Her new brain was more powerful than her old-fashioned brain. Wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to conquer them?

If it weren't for that accident, I would have been the one marrying Chu Heng.

The most important thing is to get Xie Chaochao away as soon as possible, while the two of them are not yet husband and wife.

Thinking of this, Liu Fengling took out a small jade bottle from his arms.

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry, I came with gifts."

"This is a special balm I made. Smell it."

The two hadn't quarreled yet, so Xie Chaochao didn't say much. She took it and put it under her nose and smelled it. The familiar smell made her lose her mind for a moment.

This smell is exactly the same as the one Xie Yue'er had in her previous life.

When I went out, I was chased by a dog, bitten by a cat, and stung by a bee. I stayed in bed for a month and almost lost my life.

Since they couldn't find the murderer, they put the blame on themselves. Su Moqing didn't help themselves but accused them of being so cruel that they didn't even spare their sister. Then they went on a life of debauchery, not caring whether they lived or died.

As a result, he was beaten with thirty sticks according to the family rules, his skin was torn and he almost died.

It turned out that this ointment was given by Liu Fengling.

Xie Chaochao looked back at Liu Fengling and felt that she was very vicious.

She put it into her sleeve calmly, "Thank you, Miss Chu."

"You are too polite, cousin. I am waiting for you to come back tomorrow and outshine all the other girls!"

There was a flash of anticipation and gloating in her eyes, and she left in a good mood.

Xie Chaozhao looked at her back as she walked away, picked up the small jade bottle and examined it again and again, with a faint smile on his lips.

Use the way of the person to treat the person's body.

She gave herself this great gift, so she must give something in return.

"Where are the Master and the Madam?"

The little maid replied respectfully, "The day before yesterday, a traitor broke into the Chu Mansion. The emperor knew about this and specially invited them to the palace to discuss countermeasures. In addition, there is a drought in the north, so I am afraid they will not be able to return for a few days."

After she finished speaking, she took out a purse from her bosom and said, "By the way, Madam asked me to give this to the young mistress."

Xie Chaochao was puzzled, "So much silver?"

"Yes, Madam said that you should dress up nicely when you return home tomorrow, and asked you to go out and buy jewelry and clothes. They will be back before tomorrow."
