Her name is Chen Jiaoniang, and Chen Fu is a famous lady in Danyang who was once described as "two orchids and fragrant grass look back and smile, as beautiful as the bright moon".

She got all the love from her father, but Chen Fu got the love from everyone.

There was a five-year age difference between her and Chen Fu. When Chen Fu was in her prime at the age of thirteen, she was not yet eight years old and had a bun, but she was at the age when she was driven away from the imperial capital of Danyang by the father-in-law of the Chen family in Danyang.

At that time, there was a large family in the family, but she and her father were the only two people to leave Beijing. Her brother Chen Ling and concubine Chen Fu were taken back to their natal family by their aunt, and did not follow them to Pingling County.

Life in Pingling County was very difficult. Even though his father was favored by King Yin Ze of Chu Wu for his early achievements and was rewarded with generous fields and tenants, the family still lived a "hard life".

This kind of "hardship" refers not only to living habits, but also to psychology.

Although Chen's father is often unreliable in his middle age, he was a figure who was admired as a jade orchid tree when he was young. He was also considered by his grandfather to be the future head of the Chen family.

Chen's father is the eldest son of the Chen family, but he is a concubine. In the Chen family, where legitimate concubines are clearly defined, he would have been criticized if he were the head of the Chen family. If he hadn't been simple and weak-minded at that time, he always wanted to calm down troubles and avoid family disputes.

As a result, his grandfather, who had longed for him to become a dragon, was repeatedly disappointed. How could he end up in the current situation?

Until, Danyang's grandfather, who had always defended Chen's father, passed away, and it was logical that his second father-in-law took over as the head of the Chen family in Danyang. He had a deep rift with his father due to his grandfather's partiality in the past, so he kept running against Chen's father until he was forced to leave Danyang.

However, after leaving Danyang, Chen's father was not freed from the family. Father Zhong had always hated Chen's father in his early years. Now that he has gained power, he uses all kinds of underhanded tricks to trip up Chen's family, and arranges all kinds of spies to trick Chen's family at any time.

Every action of the father reflects back.

Father Chen always believed that everything would be prosperous when the family was harmonious, and there were no two Chen families in his life. He still chose to endure and compromise.

Therefore, he pretended to be a dissolute and depraved person, took in concubines for pleasure, and exercised tyranny and oppression of tenants, all in order to create an illusion and make people in Danyang think that he no longer had any

threaten.

It's a pity that over the years, Danyang has continued to make small moves.

And even such a "difficult" life did not last long. When she was about to turn thirteen, Chen Jiaoniang's concubine Chen Fu came.

Also coming with her was her biological mother-in-law, Mrs. Li. According to the rules, she could not call this Mrs. Li her mother-in-law, because her father’s first wife was not her, she was just a concubine, equivalent to a servant.

As a servant, she could only call her aunt.

She had always done this in the past at Chen's house in Danyang, but this time when she came, she called Mrs. Li as "Amu" in front of Chen Jiaoniang.

Chen Jiaoniang stared at her increasingly beautiful face, but she was suspicious in her heart that she might have some support to be so indifferent to superiority and inferiority.

There is a reason why Chen Fu brought Li to Pingling County.

She said that her brother Chen Ling died of a fever (wind-heat cold), and the Li family was no longer willing to take in the mother and daughter. This time, they came to Pingling County to be with Chen's father and the others.

of life.

What happened next... neither Father Chen nor Chen Jiaoniang could hear it.

Although Chen Jiaoniang didn't like the hypocritical Chen Fu, she really felt sorry for her brother who had been frail and sick since childhood. When they came to Pingling, they wanted to take him with them, but they were worried that he wouldn't be able to bear the bumpy and long journey.

, so he temporarily let him follow Li, but unexpectedly...

After hearing the bad news about his brother, Chen's father fell ill and fell ill in bed, while Chen Jiaoniang hid and cried hard for several times. It took many days for the father and daughter to calm down their grief.

.

Chen Fu and Mrs. Li settled down in Chenjiabao during this period. This mother and daughter did not know how to behave with their tail between their legs like they did in Danyang. They would make an excuse to go back to Danyang every other month. On weekdays, they

They would also send letters to and from Danyang. As time went by, Chen's father and Chen Jiaoniang were not stupid. In fact, they both knew whose order it was that the pair, who lived well in Danyang, came to this remote place in the countryside.

However, due to human feelings, they did not forcefully tear off their faces to stop it, and could only turn a blind eye.

However, the relationship between them has unknowingly become worse.

Chen Jiaoniang has a rather indulgent temperament, but her nature is kind.

But all her madness and ferocity changed when Chen Fu and Li returned to Danyang one time and brought back a husband.

When Chen Fu introduced the man, she said he was her husband.

And he, a husband who had never been mentioned before, actually held a baby in his arms.

Chen Jiaoniang was in a daze and surprised that Chen Fu had already gotten married in Danyang and had given birth to such a big child. However, she had lived in Chenjiabao for more than half a year and had never told them that she was married and had children before. But now

This husband and child appeared out of nowhere, as if they were conjured out of thin air, forcing the father and daughter to accept it.

Because of Chen Fu, Chen Jiaoniang was disgusted and repelled by this "brother-in-law" at first. She would deliberately embarrass and ridicule him, but he never got angry with her or cared about her. For some reason, she gradually became more and more dissatisfied with him.

After getting along for a long time, she treated him differently.

In a poor place like Pingling County, it is really difficult to meet such a handsome gentleman who is worthy of his name.

And his song "High Mountains and Flowing Waters" also completely touched Chen Jiaoniang's gloomy girl's heart.

Because her state of mind was different, Chen Jiaoniang was now extremely attentive and gentle to her brother-in-law.

All this, in Chen Fu's eyes, seemed ridiculous and ridiculing.

In fact, Chen Jiaoniang's behavior is not a heinous crime. During the Warring States Period, it was a good story for sisters to share the same husband. Therefore, even if Chen Jiaoniang had other thoughts about Chen Fu's husband, Chen Fu should not interfere too much.

Husband’s thoughts.

Chen Fu just felt that Chen Jiaoniang's humble courtship was simply overestimating her own abilities.

How could a husband like that fall in love with a useless sister-in-law like her?

Even she didn't dare to ask for such a thing.

Although Chen Fu was disdainful and disgusted with Chen Jiaoniang in her heart, she treated Chen Bai with all sorts of "nice" remarks in front of others, and only kept her "bullying" behind her back.

Her "bullying" is the kind of "hiding needles in cotton" and "hiding poison in smiles" tactics commonly used by women in the boudoir. It cannot be put on the table. However, Chen Fu has a stable character, while Chen Jiaoniang's character is violent.

He fought with her back and forth, and often suffered a lot of losses. He was regarded as an arrogant and domineering evil sister-in-law who, despite her young age, could not tolerate the concubine.

This bad reputation has followed Chen Jiaoniang for a long time and has been criticized by others. Those who have been in contact with Chen's father often advise Chen's father to give him a proper "education", otherwise he will not be lawless and vicious when he grows up?

But Chen's father had bright eyes and a bright heart. He just smiled and shook his head. When those friends saw him like this and thought of his recent corrupt and ungentleful behavior, they felt that this person was no longer worthy of friendship, and they gradually became less and less with him.

They kept in touch with each other and eventually became estranged.

In Chenjiapu, their family lived a small life like this, but the breaking point that really turned everything into chaos was when Chen Fu's mother, Li, passed away unexpectedly.

In fact, no one else is to blame for Li's death. She is only to blame for being too bold, and increasingly treating herself as the mistress of the Chen Family Fort. Chen Jiaoniang dislikes her, but has always done nothing to help her.

Once, Chen Jiaoniang accidentally intercepted the communication between the Li family and the Danyang side. After reading it, she knew that the Li family had been helping the Chen family in Danyang. She was extremely annoyed, and she only complained about the most poisonous woman's heart.

, so he deliberately changed the content of the letter and asked her to leave the fort, so that Chen Fu's mother-in-law, Li Shi, thought that there was something in Danyang that asked her to leave the fort.

In fact, it was a malicious joke by Chen Jiaoniang to keep Li busy working. However, when she left the fort, she was worried that Chen's father would find out something strange, so she sneaked out of the fort alone and met bandits in the mountains on the way.

He died a very miserable death.

On the day of the funeral, Chen Fu had been looking at the remains of her mother-in-law quietly and expressionlessly. Her face was as pale as snow, like a ghost in the underworld, inscrutable.

Chen Fu thought that she knew that everything was designed by Chen Jiaoniang.

Even though Chen Jiaoniang didn't intend to harm anyone at first, Mrs. Li did die.

When Chen Jiaoniang saw Chen Fu's expression, she knew that she would definitely take revenge on her.

Simply, before she takes revenge, just kill her first...

Chen Jiaoniang's face was stunned, and she was suddenly shocked by her own viciousness. She bit her lower lip, and ran out in pain and self-blame.

Unexpectedly, he bumped into his brother-in-law. He saw Chen Jiaoniang's eyes were red, her whole body seemed to be exhausted, and her face was ugly, so he told her to be sad and easy to hurt her body, so she should be open-minded about everything.

The next day, he made a special trip to collect the medicine, boiled it himself and gave it to her to drink. (Chen Jiaoniang’s perspective is slightly different from the facts.)

His attentive care, gentleness and thoughtfulness made Chen Jiaoniang fall in love with her.

Ever since Li's funeral, Chen Fu had been ill. After she recovered, she had lost a lot of weight and her face was pale and gloomy. She was looking for trouble against Chen Jiao Niang and tried every means to do so.

To contrast Chen Jiaoniang's insidiousness and viciousness, her brother-in-law was disappointed in her and avoided her.

Chen Fu even secretly recruited a group of ruffians from the city to prepare Chen Jiao Niang to die in a similar tragic way to her mother-in-law.

But she didn't expect that Chen Jiaoniang had Ju by her side. Ju's brute strength was more than enough to deal with a few skinny gangsters. She endured her anger that day and escaped without any injury or pain. She didn't even have time to find Chen Jiaoniang.

Fu confronted her, and the next day rumors began to spread in the castle that she had been defiled by a group of vulgar people when she went out yesterday.

You don't need to think about it to know that Chen Fu must have done this!

Speaking of being slandered by others, Chen Jiaoniang has endured a lot over the years, and it shouldn't have affected her. But the problem is that Chen Jiaoniang is devoted to her brother-in-law. She is afraid that her brother-in-law will also believe such rumors when he hears them, and will treat her differently from now on.

He was even more unhappy, and suddenly felt anxious and hateful.

She was really filled with resentment towards Chen Fu at that time.

She felt that she had to do something to fight back.

So, she deliberately found a good opportunity, and asked someone to pretend to be her brother-in-law to fake Chen Fu. Then she locked Chen Fu alone in a moldy old warehouse, planning to imprison her for a few days to scare her.

Unexpectedly, when she released Chen Fu a few days later, she seemed to be seriously ill, like a skinny skeleton, completely exhausted.

Chen Jiaoniang was shocked. She clearly delivered water and food on time. She shouldn't be like this?!

Later, after being diagnosed and treated by a witch doctor, it turned out that she had been poisoned by a chronic poison.

At this time, Father Chen and Chen Jiaoniang knew that both Mr. Li and Chen Fu were firmly controlled by Mr. Zhongfu of Chen family in Danyang, so they were thrown here to monitor them. How could Mr. Zhong believe them if they didn't have any clues?

, Li and Chen Fu will help an outsider to frame their husband and biological father.

This poison must be treated with an antidote every three days, otherwise the poison will cause death. The antidote was given to Li and Chen Fu by Mrs. Chen Zhongfu of Danyang every time they returned to Danyang.

And Chen Jiaoniang locked up Chen Fu for nearly four days, which was long past the time limit for taking the antidote.

Chen Fu would die, and she would be killed unintentionally. This was something Chen Jiaoniang never expected.

When she saw Chen Fu dying in her brother-in-law's arms, she thought darkly that it would be best if she died...

If she dies, her brother-in-law will be hers alone.

Chen Fu's gloomy and unwilling eyes glanced at Chen Jiaoniang, as if she saw her complacent expression. She pursed her lips and smiled with resentment and hatred, and she already had an idea in her heart.

Before she died, she said to Ji Yu: "Brother Ji, I... If I am about to die, I, I am very grateful to you. You are willing to accompany me to complete the last journey. I have no other regrets, but...

...It’s just that the girl in the family is immature and acts recklessly and impulsively. Please, you must... you must help me take good care of... my dear girl, she... she is my sister, my favorite sister, you must...

Be sure to treat her well..."

What she said was not that Chen Fu really wanted Ji Yu to take care of Chen Jiao Niang for her. She had ulterior motives.
