Chapter 218 The original wife demoted to a concubine 4

"Madam He, what are you thinking about?"

Shen Yuan came back to his senses and found that it was the caravan’s bodyguard’s wife, who was arranged by the team leader to come here specifically to protect them.

"I was thinking...it's really hard for a woman to make a living in the world."

The original owner depended on others all her life. She depended on her father when she was a girl, and on her husband after she got married. If nothing unexpected happened, she would depend on her son when she got old.

If any one of these people is unreliable, her world will collapse, her entire life will be ruined, and she will have difficulty surviving in this world, just like what happened in her previous life.

"Isn't it..." The bodyguard sighed, "In this world, women must abide by the rules, otherwise the spit alone can drown people."

"But if you follow the rules, you won't make any money, and you won't be able to support your family. All the old and young in your family will just starve to death."

It can be heard that she was speaking from inspiration. She would serve as a bodyguard as a woman and travel around with the caravan. I guess she is also a person with a story.

However, the bodyguard didn't say much. She sighed a few words and patted her shoulder to comfort her: "Madam He, don't think too much. After all, you are the wife of Mr. He. We should just turn a blind eye to other things."

"Life is like this anyway. Relaxing your mind is still a day, and feeling depressed is still a day. It's better to stop thinking about random things, grab what you should grab, and live comfortably. That's better than anything else."

The bodyguard lady was very insightful. She had already seen the situation she was about to face and was giving herself some advice.

But she didn't know that human nature was even uglier than she had imagined, and the He family had no intention of leaving her alive.

However, Chen Yuan still thanked her for her kindness. They had only met by chance, and it was out of conscience for him to remind her of this.

The rest of the journey was smooth, and three months later, the caravan successfully entered the capital.

"Madam He, the shopkeeper asked me to take you to the He Mansion. Do you think we should set off now?" The person who was sent over was the bodyguard who had become familiar to him during this period of time.

Seeing her calm demeanor, she didn't look like she was visiting the capital for the first time. He couldn't help but secretly praise her. This Jinshi's wife was indeed very generous. It was a pity...

Men, especially successful men, only appreciate women's obedience and good looks, and character and talent are all put on the back burner. In the days to come... I just hope she can be more open-minded!

"Mom..." He Bin nervously grabbed the corner of his mother's sleeve. Ever since he accidentally overheard what his mother said to his grandmother that day, he has been particularly silent these days.

On the one hand, he couldn't believe that his father and grandmother actually wanted to abandon his mother, and that his grandmother's accident seemed to be related to his mother?

On the other hand, he felt that what his mother said might be true. Although he was young, he saw it all, how they treated his mother over the years.

My father and grandmother had long been tired of my mother and often threatened to divorce her. The only reason they never did so was because of their reputation.

From what my mother said, they have finally decided to take action, and it's not as simple as divorce. It seems that they have other plans. What could they be?

The clever boy vaguely guessed the answer, but he didn't dare to believe it because it was too cruel to him!

His blood relative wanted to attack another blood relative. In order to survive, she began to resist, and they became mortal enemies.

Emotionally, of course he is more inclined towards his mother, but the other two are also his relatives!

Along the way, He Bin wanted to persuade his mother to turn back countless times. His father was enjoying his wealth and glory in the capital, and they could live a quiet life in their hometown. It would be nice if they didn't interfere with each other.

But every time I met her calm, almost indifferent eyes, my mouth opened, but my throat seemed to be choked and I couldn't make a sound.

Even now that he had arrived in the capital and was about to see his father, he still hadn't figured out what to do.

Shen Yuan glanced at him. She had seen her adopted son's struggles these days, but she did not try to comfort him. Some things still needed him to see and experience them with his own eyes.

"Let's go."

The wheels rolled forward, and after about half an hour, they arrived at He's mansion.

This house was bought for He Rong by the Yue family. The location is not good and the place is not big, but it cost several thousand taels of silver.

From his own perspective, killing his wife and children and marrying the daughter of the Bai family would definitely be a win.

After all, it was his father-in-law who helped him stay in the capital and work in the Ministry of Rites. Otherwise, with his last place in the ranking, he could only be sent to be the magistrate of a small county, most likely a poor county where it would be difficult to achieve political achievements.

"Madam He, we will send you here now. Take care of yourself in the future." The bodyguard glanced at the old woman who came to take over. Although she had a smile on her face, she always felt a little unfriendly.

I couldn't help but worry for her again, but she could barely take care of herself, so she really didn't have the energy to worry about other people's family affairs. After hesitating for a moment, I had to bow and leave.

"Okay, thank you for your escort along the way, and I wish you a safe journey from now on." Chen Yuan said calmly, as if he had not noticed anything.

The maid of the He Mansion smiled as she escorted the caravan out of the house. When she came back, her expression changed. She raised her chin slightly and looked at the mother and son with a haughty manner: "Go wash off the earthy smell on your body first. I will send someone to take you to meet the mistress later."

"What mistress?" He Bin's face suddenly changed. "My grandmother is ill now, so my mother is the mistress of the house."

"Haha..." The old woman sneered, "How dare a mere concubine speak so arrogantly? I'll let you know that the master got married half a year ago. He married our young lady, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites."

"From now on, my young lady will be the head of this family. The mistress is kind-hearted and considers your service to the master for many years. She is willing to give you a place to stay and a meal. I advise you not to be ungrateful."

He Bin's eyes widened in disbelief. He thought his grandmother and father just wanted to divorce his wife. He had already prepared a plan on the way here, hoping to persuade his father to change his mind.

But I didn't expect that my father had already remarried and demoted my mother to a concubine, without even discussing it with her or notifying her. This, this, this... is simply too much!

I guess my mother's temperament suddenly changed because she found out about this?

He Bin turned his head to look at his mother, his eyes filled with tears. Unbeknownst to him, his mother had shouldered a lot alone.

Chen Yuan slapped the child on the head. What's the point of crying at this time? If you are bullied, you should clench your fists and fight back!

She sneered and said, "According to what you said, should I thank your young lady?"

"How dare you!" The old woman frowned, "How dare you disrespect the mistress of the house? Come here! Execute the family rules and teach this humble concubine the rules of the house."
