Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

It's not that Chen Youyou looks down on her for being unfaithful to her husband and remarrying as a widow, but the men she hooked up with were all from wealthy families. No matter whether the men were married or not, as long as she set her eyes on them, she would do everything possible to marry them. She married them just for their money.

After getting married, whenever she had the chance, she would kill the man, take his property, and then move on to the next target.

In order to achieve their goals, they will do anything and commit numerous sins.

Although Chen Xiaoxiao's current assets cannot match half of the Hua family's, they are still comparable to several members of the Chen family. She is very arrogant towards the Chen family, but does not have the courage to confront the Hua family, especially Chen Youyou, the eldest sister who makes her so jealous that she wants to replace her.

Chen Xiaoxiao didn't dare to hook up with Hua Feifan openly. The man looked dangerous and never gave her the slightest chance to get close to him.

There was one time when Hua Feifan heard her brazenly declaring war on Chen Youyou and trying to snatch Hua Feifan away, which angered Chen Youyou. Hua Feifan kicked her out and she almost lost her life.

Facing Hua Feifan, Chen Xiaoxiao was both afraid and wanted to get closer.

She knew very well that her usual methods were useless against Hua Feifan, so she thought about getting close to Chen Youyou. Only after her relationship with Chen Youyou improved would she have more opportunities to show up in front of Hua Feifan.

However, Chen Youyou didn't respond at all. She clearly distanced herself from her and was full of disdain and disgust towards her. Chen Xiaoxiao wanted to tear Chen Youyou apart with her condescending attitude.

Hua Muchin leaned close to Yan Yiyi's ear and seemed to be whispering to introduce the visitor, but the voice was obviously not lowered at all, just to let everyone present hear clearly.

"Yi'er, brother-in-law, that woman is nominally my mother's half-sister, but my mother doesn't recognize her. She is the half-sister we told you about before, born to her and her concubine who wanted to be her equal wife and was originally a maid."

Xin Ye glanced at Hua Muchin from the corner of his eye, and their eyes met instantly. Xin Ye curled his lips and said faintly: "If I remember correctly, there is no such thing as a co-wife in the laws of Zhao State. It's just a thing that some people made up to deceive themselves and others and want to have a good reputation."

Hua Murong put his hands behind his back, pretending to be a gentleman, but he said something that made Chen Xiaoxiao so angry that she almost vomited blood: "Brother-in-law, if you remember correctly, there is indeed no such provision in the laws of Zhao State.

The laws of the Zhao Dynasty clearly stipulated that legitimate children refer to children born to the wife married through an matchmaker. Children born to a concubine can also be recognized as legitimate children, but their status is lower than that of children born to the first wife.

As for those so-called concubines who were promoted to the position of legal wife, without the eight-man sedan chair, three books and six ceremonies, and without the marriage contract registered with the government, they are still concubines, and the children born to them are illegitimate. "

Hua Murong's target was obviously Chen Xiaoxiao, because her biological mother was a concubine who was made the legal wife, and the old man did not go to the government office to register the marriage contract. The fact that they thought they were legitimate children was purely because they were ignorant of the law.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoxiao's face turned pale. She couldn't change it at this moment. When she learned about this law, the grass on the old man's grave was already half a person tall. No one except herself could get a marriage contract.

However, the clan leader has the right to divorce or abdicate on behalf of a deceased person, provided that the woman has committed one of the seven grounds for divorce against the family and there is solid evidence.

Therefore, Chen Xiaoxiao's biological mother was a concubine until her death! And she, Chen Xiaoxiao, would never be able to become a legitimate daughter in this life.

I have to say, these three people know how to hurt someone's heart.

At this time, people from the second, fourth and fifth rooms received news from the housekeeper, prepared gifts, and hurried over.

This elder sister is a close friend to them, especially since her adopted daughter's husband has so many prescriptions. Wouldn't it be reasonable for her to share some with uncles like them to help them overcome the difficulties?

There were about twenty people coming. Chen Youyou introduced three half-brothers and their wives to Xin Ye and Yan Yiyi, but did not introduce the younger generations one by one.

Although Chen Youyou had a bad attitude, as soon as she started to introduce herself, Xin Ye immediately understood what she meant, and obediently went forward to call people and received the red envelope for changing her name.

A few people thought that Chen Youyou introduced herself to the new son-in-law as an initiative to show goodwill, but having learned a lesson before, they did not dare to be arrogant. They talked politely about this and that, intentionally or unintentionally, and inquired about Fangzi's news.

"I heard that there are a lot of fresh food at your wedding banquet. It's a pity that we can't attend it. I don't know what it tastes like. Sigh..."

"Yes, I heard that soybeans can be used to grow refreshing vegetables in winter, and can also be used to make tender and smooth tofu. I wonder if we can have the good fortune to try them today?"

"Hey! You shameless man, how can you let the new son-in-law cook for us? Why don't you tell the chef at home the method and let him cook for us, okay?"

The abacus beads were about to jump onto her face. Chen Youyou's face darkened. She never expected that they didn't dare to target her, but instead targeted A Ye?

Oh, is it because they think A-ye comes from the countryside and he is not well-informed and can be easily fooled by them?

Xin Ye smiled and said, "It's not difficult to make, but it takes time. My uncles want to eat it, but it's too late even if we make it now."

"It's okay. Tell the cook to taste it when it's done."

"But it has nothing to do with us now?" Xin Ye still maintained a decent smile, "Won't we have lunch in another hour?

What? Didn't the Chen family prepare food to entertain their married daughter? "

Several people were choked when they heard the words, but the other party was right, and it was not convenient for them to directly ask him for the recipe.

The three brothers looked at each other and decided to implement the second plan - get Xin Ye drunk and make him spit out the prescription after drinking.

The second uncle laughed and said, "How could that be? The kitchen will call us to the dining room for dinner in a little while. The dishes have been prepared long ago. My eldest sister likes braised fish!"

Chen Youyou said calmly: "The one who likes braised fish is not me, but Chen Xiaoxiao."

In an instant, a smile appeared on my second uncle’s face, and he never uttered another word after that.

The fifth uncle hurriedly winked at his children and nephews and nieces, and the children understood and came forward.

"Cousin, I don't quite understand some of my lessons. Could you please go to the study and teach me?"

"Cousin, let's go play outside. There's nothing fun here."

"Cousin, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Why don't we go to the boudoir and have a private chat?"

"Yes, cousin, let's go and have a good chat."

Yan Yiyi pushed away the hands that wanted to come forward and pull her, and glanced at them coldly, which immediately scared them so much that they dared not go any further.

Chen Youyou couldn't bear to see them attack Yan Yiyi. Her daughter had lost her memory and didn't remember how nasty their faces were. "Our Yi'er doesn't know you well, so I don't have anything to talk to you about in private."
