Let me be a concubine? I turned to someone else's arms

Chapter 118 Return to original position

At that moment, Wu Niang truly realized for the first time in her life how cold-blooded and ruthless Zhou Lang was.

Once, she was attracted by Zhou Lang's charming eyes, but now, the same eyes stared at her with such coldness that made her feel chilled to the bone.

Zhou Lang only gave Wu Niang half a month to recuperate before he left for Jiankang. During this short half month, Wu Niang searched everywhere and begged Zhou Lang to tell her where the child was abandoned.

Finally, Zhou Lang told her the whereabouts of the child without any care. When Wu Niang rushed there, she found nothing, not even a trace of blood. It was as if the child had never existed and disappeared without a trace...

In this world, there are too many abandoned babies, and almost no one is willing to pick them up and raise them.

The poor child might have become food for wild dogs or been picked up and eaten by someone who was extremely hungry.

She simply could not imagine such a terrible thing happening, and could only comfort herself over and over again, firmly believing that the child must have been picked up and adopted by a kind-hearted person, and that her child was still alive.

After this incident, there was only a deep rift between her and Zhou Lang. The husband is the leader of the wife, and it was Zhou Lang who redeemed her. She had no choice but to follow Zhou Lang.

Later, they came to Jiankang, the most prosperous capital of the Jin Dynasty.

It was the first time in her life that she saw such a prosperous scene. In the past, on the streets of Jingzhou, most people could only travel by ox carts, and even more people chose to ride donkeys.

But in Jiankang, there were spacious and luxurious carriages everywhere, people were dressed in gorgeous clothes, and their speech and behavior were elegant and extraordinary.

As they had just arrived, Zhou Lang seemed particularly excited. He held her hand tightly and said, "Wu Niang, when I find a job, our lives will be stable."

When they first arrived at this prosperous place, the relationship between the two seemed to warm up. However, the cruel reality was that this seemingly prosperous Jiankang City only belonged to the aristocratic class. For ordinary people, it was almost impossible to survive here.

They once had a lot of money, but firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea were much more expensive in Jiankang than in Jingzhou. In less than a year, all their money was spent and their life became difficult.

Despite this, Zhou Lang still didn't find anything to do that satisfied him.

He has always been spoiled, and even though he is busy running around now, Wu Niang still takes good care of him.

Although his quality of life declined, he actually did not suffer. However, when he came to Jiankang and saw the faces of people, he deeply realized that if he left the shelter of his family, he would be useless.

Not long after arriving in Jiankang, Wu Niang became pregnant with her second child. In light of the lessons learned from last time, she pulled herself together during this delivery, determined not to let Zhou Lang abandon the child like he did last time.

Indeed, this time Zhou Lang did not abandon the child, but abandoned her along with him...

She went through countless life and death tests and finally gave birth to the twin brother and sister. However, while she was still in the confinement period, she was sold to Wanhua Tower by Zhou Lang!

When she found out, she felt like she was struck by lightning. She stood there in a daze for a long time. It felt as if someone had hit her heart with a sledgehammer, over and over again, causing her to convulse all over due to the excruciating pain.

She looked in disbelief at the lover who used to love her so much. Now he was unwilling to even glance at her. Facing her miserable tears and questioning, he was totally indifferent. The tenderness on that familiar face was gone, replaced by boredom.

He blamed Wu Niang for everything that happened to him now. He hated her. If it weren't for her, he would still be living a wealthy life at home. How could he have fallen to this point?

He regretted that he should have listened to his father and brother.

Zhou Lang used the money he got from selling her as travel expenses and returned to Jingzhou and the Zhou family.

Overnight, everything between her and him returned to the original state: he went back to continue enjoying his wealthy life, while she became a humble prostitute in a brothel.

When she was in Jingzhou, she could sing and dance and would not easily accept customers. However, after giving birth to two children in succession, her health deteriorated and she could no longer dance as gracefully as before. The brothel owner made her a prostitute in the building.

Poor two children, they have to suffer with her before they are even a month old.

Thinking back to the time when Zhou Lang ruthlessly sold her and her child, she felt heartbroken and tears streaming down her face. She knelt on the ground and begged him to take their child Nian'er away.

Didn't he always want a son? Then wasn't Nianlang also his own flesh and blood?

However, Zhou Lang at that time had a cold expression, a mocking smile on his face, and coldly stared at the crying and miserable woman on the ground. He said ruthlessly: "When I return to the Zhou family, my father and brother will arrange a marriage for me, and there are many women who are willing to bear children for me!"

Yes, so he didn't need the child born by this singer at all...

He could abandon his first child, and he could abandon her along with him.

Just like that, one hand handed over the money and the other handed over the person.

After Zhou Lang took the money, he turned around and left without looking back. In the blurred vision, Wu Niang could only watch the man who had been with her through thick and thin gradually walk away until he disappeared from her sight. He was so resolute and indifferent, without even a glance at her.

Once upon a time, he was the salvation of her life, saving her from dire straits; but now, it was also he who pushed her into the abyss of no return.

Perhaps, he had truly loved her, but this love was ultimately shattered by the cruel reality.

Everything returned to normal, except that there were three more affected children.

The first child became a thorn in her heart. She thought about her all the time. Even the next two children were named in her memory. The first one was "Nian", which means a mother's longing, and the second one was "Ruo", which meant she wanted to find the shadow of her eldest daughter in the younger daughter.

After many years, I finally saw it.

She didn't know how the child became the daughter of the Luo family. The Luo family was a noble family. Maybe the Luo family ranked lower in Jiankang, which was full of aristocratic families, but they were a century-old noble family and had taken root in Jiankang for many years. They were much stronger than the Zhou family, a commoner family that couldn't even be selected as an eighth or ninth rank official.

As long as the child lives well, it is enough. She was worried at first because she was concerned about the child's life or death. Now that she sees that she is so happy, she is satisfied.

However, her face, which resembled that of the child by 60% or 70%, was ultimately a hidden danger. Especially this morning when the daughter of the Yang family claimed that she was a prostitute, Wu Niang was frightened. Fortunately, someone cleared the matter for the child. Later, when she heard Li'er say that she wanted to gather all the witnesses and evidence, Wu Niang became even more worried.

But now, the vicissitudes of life have left deep marks on her face. The former beauty is no longer there. She is no longer at the age where she can make a living by her looks. Let it be ruined. This is the best she, as a mother, can do for her child.
