Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter

Chapter 180 - Faked adultery evidence



Chapter 180 Faked adultery evidence

Madam Luo realized that jade pendant with Azure Dragon was precious. Although Feng Yang said Ning Yuan was a jewelry businessman, Madam Luo believed Ning Yuan might belong to an imperial family. He Danggui and Feng Yang explained the figures in the painting were brother and sister, but they were a couple in Madam Luo’s eyes. Despite He Danggui emphasized that she only talked to Childe Ning with three sentences, Madam Luo thought she was a promising child that a duke was attracted to her with only three sentences.

In this way, He Danggui was thought to be the second promising girl after Luo Baiqiong in Luo’s Mansion that she might marry a noble man in Madam Luo’s eyes. It was clear that He Danggui’s food and clothing must be served carefully. Even though Sun Meiniang devised means to reduce the daily use in Tao Yao Yard, Mammy Tang would replenish the lack in time when she found it.

The efforts Sun Meiniang made were in vain. She was angry indeed, but the angriest person was He Danggui. Zhu Quan offset all the efforts she made in Luo’s Mansion by only a painting and a jade, which made her firstly experience the life that a miss should live. Now He Danggui didn’t need to do anything. Even if she was as weak as her in previous life, she could also live an extravagant life.

He Danggui’s happy life let Sun Meiniang hate her more. Reducing He Danggui’s daily use could decrease her hatred originally, what she wanted now was to make He Danggui suffer. Gradually, lots of intrigues came out.

He Danggui responded smartly. Once Sun Meiniang failed, she aggravated more. At the beginning, she did He Danggui wrong and sent persons to spy on He Danggui. And she found fault with He Danggui twice when He Danggui was about to sneak out of the mansion. This time the offspring of Luo’s family were involved in. She could eliminate her rival in love Hua Yu and let He Danggui be the scapegoat. What a perfect plan! It was worthwhile that she spent 2 months to devise and gave them the surprise.

“You said you watched her showering. Does she have any mark? Like a mole, birthmark or scar?” He Danggui said moving close to Huai Hua’s ear.

Huai Hua grinned and said, “You mean… Evil girl. That’s the girl who can fight with Sun Meiniang.”

He Danggui smiled and said to his ear, “You overpraised. Just a tit-for-tat.”

The reason why Sun Meiniang who was respected in Luo’s Mansion, even if she always tyrannized, was that she was the eldest daughter-in-law of Madam Luo. If she was disloyal to her husband, she must lose the trust of Madam Luo. It was more effective than disclosing that she misappropriated the family deposit. He Danggui learned this trick just from Sun Meiniang and Consort Zhou.

In the past, when He Danggui took care of Consort Zhou who suffered lung disease, they spend all day together. It was unavoidable that they saw each other naked. Then Consort Zhou remembered that He Danggui had three red moles on her breasts.

Later Luo Baiqiong said in tears that she was uglier than those sisters-in-law and concubines of her husband. She fell into disfavor that her husband didn’t sleep with her for several months. Luo Baiqiong begged, “You can let the Lord come to your room every night, so you must have some methods. Please teach me some! I want my husband’s heart back.”

He Danggui couldn’t tell Luo Baiqiong the reason why the Lord came to her room every night was she was his trusted subordinate. She helped him handle the things of Wuying Tower, so she needed to report to him every night. Expressing her sympathy to Luo Baiqiong, she took her jewelries out and asked Luo Baiqiong to pick some. And she taught Luo Baiqiong how to dress better. Luo Baiqiong looked through those luxury jewelries, but she was only interested in a box of round fragrant flower decorations which were made of brass. Then she asked He Danggui where the things stuck on.

The box of flower decorations was given by Zhu Quan. He let He Danggui stick on her navel. Fair skin and yellow flowers formed a beautiful scene, which made him be excited. He Danggui roughly explained to her. Then Luo Baiqiong was more interested and pestered He Danggui for taking off her clothes and showing how to use them. Before Luo Baiqiong leaving, He Danggui gave half a box of flower decorations to Luo Baiqiong. But Luo Baiqiong refused. She said it could be bought outside and she didn’t want to take things the Lord gave to He Danggui.

Then when He Danggui was wronged, the red moles and the flower decorations were the evidence of her adultery. She suddenly realized that the people she should stay alert were not only Consort Zhou, but the Second Branch! If He Danggui changed the plan a little bit, Sun Meiniang would be beat at their own game. Wasn’t that great?

Huai Hua was grinning while saying, “I disdained to look the naked body of a middle-aged woman like her. But she burned your feet with lime. I forced myself to look with revenge. You know what? She is still hot! If you don’t look her face, she is totally a twenty-year-old girl. No wonder your Second Uncle loves her so much. Madam Luo treated her as a family member because she was obedient to Madam Luo’s son. If your Second Uncle thinks Sun Meiniang is a slut and abandons her, she will definitely lose trust of Madam Luo. And she took lots of money from kinds of affairs in Luo’s Family these years, right?”

He Danggui smiled embarrassedly at Bo He who was confused opposite. Then she continued to talk with Huai Hua, “Don’t laugh near my ear. It’s itchy. Did you see any feature on Sun Meiniang’s body?”

Huai Hua answered directly, “I’m clear that she doesn’t have any scar or birthmark.” As He Danggui was disappointed, Huai Hua smiled again and said, “But on her inner thigh, there is a tattoo of a red flower. Slut! The women in brothels just have tattoos on their shoulders or ankles. How did she tattoo there?”

He Danggui smiled and asked, “Red flower? What kind of flower? Did you see that clear?”

Huai Hua rolled her eyes and said, “I should have washed my eyes immediately at the first sight, let alone keeping my eyes on her! Maybe a peony or herbaceous peony. I saw it as big as two fists. I didn’t expect that couple had this hobby.”

He Danggui continued to ask, “What kind of red it is? Just red? What’s the exact position of her tattoo? Her left thigh or right thigh?”

Bo He looked with confusion at her Miss and Huai Hua who discussed in a low voice. Huai Hua reached out to touch Miss’s leg and then hit by Miss’s wicker. Later Huai Hua pained to cry and raised her left leg. She pointed the end of her thigh and said, “Here. Red.”

“Whoa! Whoa!”

The gharry stopped. He Danggui thought it was too soon to arrive home. So, she pulled the curtain and looked outside. Then she said in shock, “Second Childe of Guan’s Family, what happened?”

The purplish red horse Guan Mo rode suddenly stopped. Its speed was very fast before, so it went round and round now. Guan Mo gazed at He Danggui through the window with hollow flowers. He smiled and said, “My manservant told me that something happened in Luo’s Family. In case you will be blamed in a while, I want to go back to Luo’s Mansion, too. Hope I can help you say something.”

He Danggui replied with a smile, “Second Childe, you got the message so quick. After experiencing the matter in academy, you must be tired. Don’t you want to go home? Or your mother will worry about you. As for the little boring things in Luo’s Mansion, I will feel a deep shame if you see these. And Madam Luo must blame me, for I announce the family scandals.”

Guan Mo was the second child in Guan’s Family. He, Guan Bai and Guan Yun were all Mrs. Liao’s children. At the beginning, He Danggui wasn’t familiar with the three people. She knew Guan Bai because of an accident about the hoof. Besides, she and Guan Yun were rivals in love, but they just didn’t speak out. After all, Duan Xiaolou was her lover in secret, and Guan Yun’s intimate friend in public. In this way, they couldn’t be counted as rivals in love.

As for Guan Mo, he fell in love with Luo Baiqiong one year ago when visiting Luo’s Family. Luo Baiqiong also liked him. Guan Mo was 22 years old, and he was a charming man. His pair of long eyes seemed to be saying something. When he looked at a girl, a slight raising of one corner of his lip could attract any unmarried girls. His smile was a little bit serious but also frivolous, which made girls be shy. But Luo Baiqiong still loved Peng Jian, so she didn’t go close to Guan Mo.

On one afternoon of the last year, He Danggui went on streets in a gharry. She told Madam Luo that she was going to play with Qing’er in Guan’s Mansion. In fact, she just went on streets and held a compass looked like a basin to choose a good place for the branch of Quan Ji Tang, according to the method Bai Yangbai taught. Then the gharry went to a street near Guan’s Mansion.

Through the window, He Danggui saw a man riding horse in front of her. He was Guan Mo. She instructed the coachman Ren Dongteng to slow down and wait for the rider making a turn. And then they could speed up. But the rider suddenly turned back as if he heard He Danggui’s words. He Danggui didn’t want to meet him, so she put the curtain down. After a moment, she heard a sound from the front, like a man fell to the ground.

When she lifted the curtain, she saw that Guan Mo was unconscious on the ground. His eyes closed, and his horse walked half of the street alone. The street was full of people. She couldn’t leave him lying on the middle of the street. So, she stopped the gharry and moved Guan Mo to the roadside with Ren Dongteng.

When feeling his pulse, He Danggui was shocked. Although Guan Mo was called the master of literature and martial arts, she didn’t feel it at all. Now she found his inner force was almost half of hers. So, his martial arts were far more ten times than his brother Guan Bai’s. But when they compared notes, He Danggui watched by side. Guan Mo won most of the fights. However, the most surprising thing was that Guan Mo’s Zhenqi was evil like the result of training evil kung fu.

He Danggui didn’t know why he was in a coma when riding horse, and she couldn’t leave him on the street. When she intended to let Ren Dongteng go to Guan’s Mansion for help, Guan Mo woke up suddenly and seemed like nothing had happened. He whistled his horse to come back. He Danggui said goodbye to him, but he followed her gharry by riding horse. He said that she was his savior and he must return her. And then he started to call her “Sister He”, instead of “Third Miss”.

From then, Guan Mo turned his target to He Danggui and stopped contacting Luo Baiqiong. He was very shameless that He Danggui couldn’t get rid of him after trying several times. One time he made an excuse to hold her hands. Liao Qing’er saw through his trick and found a wooden hand letting him hold.

At the Feast of Qushui Liushang half of a year ago, he delivered the first love letter to He Danggui, and He Danggui gave it to Liao Qing’er by accident. Liao Qing’er opened it and spoke out accidentally, “…You are the only girl who doesn’t feel shy with my gaze. On the contrary, I’m anxious when you look at me. I even don’t know where my hands should put… I need a satisfying woman in my room. And the suitable person I believe is you. If you say yes, I will spend much money letting you be my concubine. What? Concubine? Xiaoyi! Ah, why is it so quiet?” Qing’er raised her head. When finding everyone in the feast were looking at her, she felt puzzled and said, “Don’t look at me. My cousin Guan Mo wrote it!”

Since then, Guan Mo didn’t chase He Danggui that much but turned to chase other real misses. Moreover, he often did some intimate behaviors with those misses in front of He Danggui.

He Danggui was rejoicing that she got rid of him. A month ago, Guan Mo ran after her again. She was confused at first. Now she reminded of the matter that Guan Yun was broken off the marital engagement. She was suspicious and stayed alert to Guan Mo who was more enthusiastic about chasing her than before.
