It is often said that a daughter obeys her father at home and her husband after marriage. As children, we naturally take what our parents give us, and we should not ask for what they don’t. An unfilial daughter will be scorned by all!
Madam Liu reprimanded with a stern face.
Chu Miaomiao also glared, remembering that her own dowry in the previous life was full, while this wild girl’s dowry had half-empty boxes.
It was all handled by Madam Liu personally.
In this family, Madam Liu, with her merchant background, controlled the money. She didn’t believe this wild girl could get Madam Liu to spend any money.
Tao Mama, Madam Liu’s old servant, also sneered, “Has Miss gotten used to asking for things from the nuns in the nunnery? This is an official’s residence where everyone knows propriety, righteousness, and shame. We don’t do that beggar stuff here!”
A sharp look flashed in Chu Zhiyi’s eyes, “Propriety, righteousness, and shame? It just so happens that I, who grew up in the countryside, don’t have that stuff!”
She slapped the old thing away and swaggered into Madam Liu’s room.
Pulling off the bed curtains and tying them into a sack, she plundered all the valuables.
“You’re being presumptuous!”
“Sister, what are you doing? Are you a robber? Someone, come quick!”
Madam Liu and Chu Miaomiao shouted in the back, but they didn’t dare to step forward to stop her.
Because Chu Zhiyi looked too much like a bandit.
“Life in the countryside taught me that you can live a good life by doing it yourself.”
Even Madam Liu’s small box was turned out, and after looting everything, she carried it on her shoulder and left.
“You ill-mannered wretch, put it down!”
Madam Liu rushed over anxiously.
Chu Zhiyi suddenly approached her face, “Mother, look at my face and say those words again?”
Madam Liu’s lips moved, but she didn’t say a word, and a hint of fear floated in the depths of her eyes.
This face…
Sneering inwardly, she was about to go plunder Chu Miaomiao’s residence, the Xianzizhu.
“Sister, how can you act like a thief in the house? What will people say if this gets out?!” Chu Miaomiao was anxious.
Stopping, Chu Zhiyi stared deeply at Chu Miaomiao, who was like a hibiscus flower, “I’m not your sister. You don’t even have the surname Chu. Your biological parents are pig butchers from the border countryside.”
Chu Miaomiao’s face turned pale, she hated others mentioning this the most!
Chu Zhiyi continued, “If your biological parents hadn’t swapped us so you could enjoy wealth and glory, you would still be butchering pigs at the border. And they threw me into a nunnery to fend for myself. Logically speaking, your whole family is my enemy.
I was generous enough not to report you to the authorities after I came back, otherwise you would have rolled back to the border with your biological parents long ago! What you eat and use was originally mine, what right do you have to yell at me?”
Chu Miaomiao bit her lip, tears flashing, her hands clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her palms, wishing she could tear Chu Zhiyi apart right now.
Madam Liu, whose inner fear had temporarily subsided, regained her composure.
“Leaving Miaomiao here was your father and my intention. We have pampered her for sixteen years, how could we let her go back to the border to suffer? Besides, her biological parents took a sum of money and signed a document severing their relationship with her. She is now a daughter of the Chu family.”
Chu Zhiyi sneered, “Father and mother are so kind to the masterminds who swapped daughters, not reporting them to the authorities or punishing them, but instead giving them a large sum of money.
Since I came back, I’ve only been given two rough servant girls, a leaky bedroom with damp bedding, and a pile of old clothes and jewelry that Chu Miaomiao didn’t want.
I’m a country bumpkin with no knowledge, but how do you think people in the capital will talk about this if it gets out? Mistreating one’s own daughter is worse than treating pigs and dogs!”
Madam Liu clenched her hands and didn’t say a word, she knew what she had done in her heart.
The mother and daughter retreated, and Chu Zhiyi continued to plunder.
While plundering, she discovered that Chu Miaomiao’s Xianzizhu was really nice, with all the facilities and even a small rockery with a fountain in the courtyard.
Taking two rough servant girls, she occupied the territory and drove out the eight servants who originally served Chu Miaomiao.
The honest Xiaochun was a little uneasy, “Miss, the master will be angry when he comes back.”
Chu Zhiyi, who was lying on a delicate rocking chair sunbathing, opened her eyes, no longer with the aggressive and sharp look she had just had.
“Whoever makes me angry, I’ll set the Chu family on fire!”
Her clear eyes were bottomless, and she meant what she said.
Xiaomei nudged Xiaochun, a smile floating on her dark face, “We are blessed by Miss, otherwise we would never have been able to enter Xianzizhu in this lifetime.”
Xiaochun thought that made sense.
In the past, Chu Miaomiao especially disliked rough servants approaching Xianzizhu, and even if they met her in the mansion, they had to greet her from afar and then avoid her.
She always claimed to be noble and looked down on servants, saying that the servants had a strange smell on them.
But wasn’t she herself the daughter of a pig butcher? The smell was even stronger!
Chu Zhiyi also smiled at the two of them. In her previous life, they were her dowry.
Before she got married, Madam Liu gave them poison, forcing them to find an opportunity to poison her, but the two girls were honest and simple and never did it.
Later, when the deposed Crown Prince Feng was reinstated, Madam Liu anxiously threatened them with Xiaomei’s younger brother’s life. Xiaomei had originally put the poison in the sweet soup.
But when Chu Zhiyi was about to drink it, the silly girl snatched it and poured it into her mouth, begging her to save her brother before she died.
But when she rushed back, it was too late. Madam Liu had drowned Xiaomei’s younger brother.
Why did Madam Liu do this?
Because she was not her daughter at all.
She had never even given birth to a daughter, she had no ability to conceive.
When she followed Chu Zheng to take office at the border, she found out that she could not have children, and was afraid that Chu Zheng would divorce her.
It just so happened that she found a young pregnant woman with only one maid in that small town, and she set her sights on her.
On the one hand, she pretended to be pregnant to deceive Chu Zheng, and on the other hand, she stared at the young pregnant woman and bribed the midwife.
On the day of delivery, she took the child away, and even poisoned the woman and the midwife.
Who would have thought that Madam Liu had also been targeted by another pregnant couple living nearby, who knew she was an official’s wife and happened to be giving birth on the same day.
Taking advantage of the chaos in the courtyard late at night, they swapped the children.
Afraid that there would be complications if they waited too long, Madam Liu took the child away at dawn. Since it was not her own, how would she notice whether the child she took away was the one stolen from the single pregnant woman?!
Therefore, her biological mother was that unknown single pregnant woman. On the day she gave birth to her, she not only lost a piece of flesh from her body, but may have also been poisoned to death.
Madam Liu, an enemy!
I only hate that when I found out about this in my previous life, Madam Liu was already at the end of her rope, and the revenge was not satisfying.
Coming back again, she has to make Madam Liu wish she were dead.
At this time, Chu Miaomiao, who had been driven to Heyuan, was grabbing the hair of her maid, Xialian, fiercely.
“Bitch! I’ll have your hands and feet cut off and made into a human pig after you snatch my dowry and my courtyard, and after I marry the Crown Prince and become the Empress and Empress Dowager!”
“No, making you a human pig is too good for you. I’m going to pour hot oil and excrement into your mouth every day, and then strip you naked and parade you through the streets.”
Xialian was in agony, many strands of her long hair were pulled out and her scalp was bleeding, but she didn’t dare to make a sound.
“She is the vulgar commoner! I am a golden daughter, my parents are not pig butchers!”
“Ahhh! I am the golden daughter!”
After venting for half an hour, Xialian lost half her life.
After Chu Miaomiao let go, she quickly got up to soothe her, “Miss is a golden branch and jade leaf with far-reaching plans, that vulgar wild girl is not worthy of being compared with Miss.”
A shallow smile appeared on her face like a hibiscus flower!
In her previous life, she was imprisoned by that eunuch in a ghost-like place, and when she learned that Chu Zhiyi had become the Empress Dowager, she was filled with jealousy and hatred, and died spitting blood.
In this life, she will give her everything she has suffered, be disfigured, be imprisoned, and watch herself rise to the top with envy and jealousy!
