Chapter 214 The reason why your Su family has a bad reputation is all caused by your own family memb
"Yes, so the most urgent thing is that we proceed according to the original plan."
Liu Jie and Xu Xiaoxue's original plan was to go to Nan's house to find Nan Chuzheng.
So Xu Jiaoxue tore up the divorce letter given by Su Shizhi.
She told Su Shizhi that Zhou Mingzhu refused to accept the divorce letter.
Su Shizhi coughed angrily, but at this moment, he didn't have the energy to fight Zhou Mingzhu to the bitter end.
This actually gave Xu Jiaoxue and Liu Jie some free time, and they found Nan Chuzheng who was out for a walk.
Nan Chuzheng is already seven months pregnant and her belly is already quite big.
Whenever she felt bored living in the South House, she would go for a walk outside.
Sometimes I would take a walk in the palace.
Sometimes I would stroll along the long streets of the imperial capital.
Xu Jiaoxue rushed to Nan Chuzheng's side, but before she got close to Nan Chuzheng, she was blocked by gold, silver, copper and iron.
Xu Jiaoxue then knelt in front of Nan Chuzheng with tears streaming down her face. In front of everyone in the jewelry shop, she kowtowed to Nan Chuzheng and begged:
"Miss Nan, you are a very kind person, but why didn't you return to the Chu family to take care of your mother's funeral when your own mother died?"
"We have only one mistress in the Su family, and now she's stuck in the Chu family, surrounded by rumors and gossip. Where can we put our Su family's reputation?"
What Xu Jiaoxue said makes sense and has evidence.
Zhou Mingzhu had a bad reputation to begin with, and she had been living in the Chu family. There were rumors about her and Marquis Chu.
Amidst rumors, they were a pair of lovers who were unable to be together.
Now Lord Chu’s wife is dead, but Zhou Mingzhu’s husband is not dead.
And nominally speaking, Zhou Mingzhu is still the sister-in-law of Marquis Chu.
This sister-in-law had no status and lived in the Chu family, and even took care of her sister's funeral.
Others will not say anything about the Zhou family, they will only say that Su Shizhi is becoming more and more like a pitiful person.
As Su Shizhi's concubine, Xu Jiaoxue came out to ask Nan Chuzheng to return to the Chu family to preside over the funeral of her own mother. No one would say that Xu Jiaoxue was wrong.
They would only accuse Nan Chuzheng of being unfilial.
But what Xu Jiaoxue didn't expect was the gold, silver, copper and iron around Nan Chuzheng, and the guards of Nan's house.
Xu Jiaoxue was crying and telling everything, saying that she was doing it all for the good of the Su family.
They had already cleared out all the people in the jewelry shop.
Nan Chuzheng knew that her belly was already very big, so she went out for a walk just to avoid feeling depressed and losing control of her emotions after giving birth.
But she would not deliberately act pretentiously or joke about her own or her child's body.
Whenever Nan Chuzheng goes out shopping, the shops she visits are always those under the Nan family's name.
She listened to Xu Jiaoxue's pleading and calmly entered the inner room of the jewelry shop.
She sat down.
The owner of the jewelry shop raised his foot and kicked Xu Jiaoxue.
"There's no one else here now, so please speak softly to avoid scaring the young lady."
Xu Jiaoxue then raised her head and looked around. The door of the jewelry shop was closed.
Before she could react, the servants of the South House grabbed her arms and dragged Xu Jiaoxue to the ground, making her kneel behind a bead curtain outside the inner and outer room.
Nan Chuzheng sat in the inner room and took the cup of tea offered by Xiao Jin.
The tea temperature is just right, neither hot nor cold.
She lifted the lid of the teacup and skimmed the tea leaves.
"You are Su Shizhi's concubine, but do you know who I am?"
Xu Jiaoxue shook her head.
Su Shizhi didn't teach her much about what happened in the upper class.
He also didn't take Xu Jiaoxue out to see the world.
Xu Jiaoxue, a person of such status and class, could not find out Nan Chuzheng's true identity.
She only knew that Nan Chuzheng was the true daughter of the Chu family.
However, Nan Chuzheng was lost when she was young, and after returning to the Chu family, her life there was not satisfactory.
Chu Jingyue makes things difficult for Nan Chuzheng everywhere, and the culprit who caused Nan Chuzheng to get lost is Zhou Mingzhu.
So Xu Jiaoxue and Liu Jie both thought that Nan Chuzheng was nothing big.
Nan Chuzheng said calmly:
"Then do you know under what circumstances a man would be too lazy to tell you about those big things outside, and when he gets home he would only pick out some trivial and romantic things to tell you?"
Xu Jiaoxue didn't answer Nan Chuzheng. She took a sip of tea and said:
"When you're treated like a toy."
Nan Chuzheng smiled and looked through the bead curtain at Xu Jiaoxue who was kneeling on the ground outside with a confused look on her face.
She seemed to be standing at a very high altitude, looking down at Xu Jiaoxue with her eyebrows lowered, making any of Xu Jiaoxue's plans useless in front of someone like her.
Xu Jiaoxue lowered her head and couldn't quite understand what Nan Chuzheng said.
She could only repeat,
"You are a rich lady, you married a man as his wife, but my life is miserable, I can only be a concubine."
"If the Su family's reputation is ruined, then I will definitely not be able to get any good."
"Madam Si, I am a very pitiful person. Can't you have pity on me and let my wife go back to the Su family?"
Xu Jiaoxue didn't understand what Nan Chuzheng said at all.
So Nan Chuzheng could only say to Xu Jiaoxue in simple words,
"Zhou Mingzhu is willing to stay in the Chu family. That's her choice."
"First, I didn't hold a knife and force Zhou Mingzhu to do anything. Second, I didn't pressure the world and let everyone in the world criticize your Su family."
"The reason your Su family has a bad reputation is all caused by your own family members."
“There’s nothing of my hand in it.”
"What's more, Xu Jiaoxue, you were sold to a brothel by your father when you were twelve years old. You have been through countless men. You should have been indifferent to reputation a long time ago."
"Now, you still go back to the brothel from time to time to earn some money by selling your body, but here you pretend to be a chaste and heroic woman with me, only caring about the reputation of the Su family?"
"If you really wanted to protect the Su family's reputation, you would have hit your head against the wall and died a long time ago."
When Nan Chuzheng said this, Xu Jiaoxue's face turned pale. She raised her head with a horrified look and looked at the stunning beauty behind the bead curtain.
Even though Nan Chuzheng is now seven months pregnant, she is still stunningly beautiful and her wealth cannot be concealed.
A woman who was raised in a world of wealth and treasures would still exude an awe-inspiring aura even if she lived in a humble room.
"You, how did you know?"
When Xu Jiaoxue was twelve years old, she was not as pretty as she is now.
Her father wanted to get her into a regular brothel.
However, the brothel's madam looked down on Xu Jiaoxue.
That's why her father sold her to a brothel.
Brothels are different from brothels. The girls in brothels are all registered with the government.
She can be considered an open prostitute.
But the people in the brothel were prostitutes.
Therefore, if it weren't for someone who is well versed in this business, no one would know that Xu Jiaoxue had been working in a brothel to receive customers when she was twelve years old.
It has been several years now.
