Just because she looks weak doesn't mean she's easy to bully.

There is a restaurant in Cangzhou City called Guangjinglou. Guangjinglou is a courtyard building located in the middle of the city. It has a good location with easy access to all directions. In addition to dining, it also provides accommodation.

Cheng Jinchu spent some money to rent two rooms in the No. 1 room of Guangjing Building and paid a year's fee. She could come and stay at any time during this period.

When she and Yunzhi were arranged to live in the broken yard, they lived here.

The owner of the restaurant told her when she came for the second time that the boss heard about this matter and since she paid the whole year's fee in one lump sum, all the food provided by Guangjinglou during her stay would be free of charge. Cheng Jinchu thought that this boss was quite good at doing business.

Cheng Jinchu did not rent a house outside at first. The first reason was that Guangjing Building had a good location. Many dignitaries in Cangzhou City were frequent visitors here. Also, the food here really suited her taste. She wanted to poach the chef when she returned.

Cheng Jinchu walked into her room. After each stay, someone would come in to clean her room. Even when no one was staying there, the room would be cleaned every two days. The room was very clean.

She had just entered the room and sat down when she heard the shopkeeper's wife Zhou Zhi knocking on the door.

"Madam, I brought some snacks!"

Cheng Jinchu opened the door and Zhou Zhi came in with tea and some snacks. She put everything on the table, turned around and looked at Cheng Jinchu with a smile.

Cheng Jinchu sat at the table, poured a cup of tea, took a sip, then picked up the honey cake on the table, tasted it, and put the cake on an empty plate beside him.

Zhou Zhi delivered the things and politely left. Just as he reached the door, he heard Cheng Jinchu's voice.

"Sister Zhou Zhi, come sit down and talk. Let's drink tea and have some snacks together. I'm so bored. I really want to find someone to chat with and have fun."

Cheng Jinchu stood up, walked forward a few steps, took Zhou Zhi's hand, led her to the table and sat her down, and poured her a cup of tea.

"Sister Zhou Zhi, you know, I just came to Cangzhou City. I heard something recently. It seems quite absurd. I don't know if it's true."

Zhou Zhi held the teacup and took a sip of tea, then looked at Cheng Jinchu tenderly. The more she looked at her, the more she liked the little girl in front of her. She liked beautiful people. She had never seen such a pretty girl, just like she had never seen a man more handsome than the Dong family.

They are the kind that can make people happy just by looking at them.

Cheng Jinchu's beauty is not aggressive at all, especially when she softens her tone and looks at others with a smile, she is always very likable.

"What's going on?"

The delicate and soft little girl had a naturally cute look. Zhou Zhi had to hold back and not rub the little girl's head a few times!

Cheng Jinchu moved closer to Zhou Zhi. Zhou Zhi felt her body stiffen. She could only hear the little girl whispering in her ear in a soft and delicate voice.

"I've been in the imperial capital these past few days. It just happened a few days ago that Lord Shen, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue, married the eldest daughter of the Minister of Revenue. But, I also heard that Lord Shen already has a wife. Although this happened several months ago, people are still talking about it on the street. I overheard it on the road today. It was said that his previous wife had passed away, right?"

After the little girl finished speaking, she moved away from Zhou Zhi and looked at him with her big eyes blinking. Zhou Zhi coughed lightly, picked up the teacup, took another sip of tea, didn't look up at Cheng Jinchu, put down the teacup in her hand, and slowly recalled some recent details about the incident.

Recently, Lord Shen's marriage has indeed caused a lot of excitement in the imperial capital. Many people are talking about this matter. It is no wonder that the little girl is so curious. To be honest, there are a lot of things to say about this.

"I know about this matter. People outside are saying that his original wife is sick. I don't know the specific situation. His original wife passed away before he was transferred to the imperial capital. You also know that many people come to my Guangjing Tower, so I know something about it. It's because he recently married the Shangshu's daughter, and this daughter has a particularly bad reputation. Therefore, the past affairs of Lord Shen have spread."

Zhou Zhi was a person who liked to chat, especially when she saw Cheng Jinchu, whom she liked, she couldn't help but tell the story in more detail. In short, these were things that one could find out after staying in the imperial capital for a long time.

"I also heard that Lord Shen's first wife gave birth to five daughters. The fourth daughter said she had a connection with Buddha and went to the temple to practice asceticism. The youngest daughter said she was in poor health and stayed on the farm.

Alas...what was talked about the most was that Lord Shen, considering the help his wife's family had given him, even if it was unreasonable, he gritted his teeth and agreed to his brother-in-law to bring his wife's unmarried cousin, an old girl, into the mansion as a concubine.

This, this principal wife has been gone for ten years. Before the Shangshu family’s daughter married in, I heard that this concubine had always been in charge of the household. Oh my, which household affairs were handed over to the concubine? I heard that the principal wife’s daughters grew up with this concubine. Since the concubine is her biological aunt, she is not afraid of being mean to them. Any good family would not want a daughter who grew up with a concubine.”

Cheng Jinchu:......

Cheng Jinchu felt that these people were really good at making up stories. Such a good story of demoting a wife to a concubine was spread outside in such a touching way that it really made anyone who heard it cry and feel sad.

Shen Yun is such a good person, and Sun Manman is really open-minded. The most suspicious thing is Aunt Mo's attitude. Why can she accept the fact that her wife has died?

The most important thing is that Cheng Jinchu captured the key time point of ten years. So, what happened ten years ago?

Cheng Jinchu couldn't help but sigh again. There were many more things to investigate.

"Sister, what happened to the Shangshu's daughter? I heard that she is unlucky in marriage. Is it true?"

Zhou Zhi took a sip of tea and lowered her eyes.

"Little girl, that's not a good reputation, don't pollute your ears."

After Zhou Zhi left, Cheng Jinchu was no longer in the mood to eat.

Mrs. Mo died using her real identity. Something must have happened. What was it?

Cheng Jinchu's mind was in a mess. She would slowly investigate this matter later. It would not affect the direction of her plot for the time being, nor would it cause trouble for her for the time being. This was the business of these few people, so she would just listen to the gossip.

Gossip is worth listening to. According to Chengzi, the people from the Shen Mansion were brought back because they found that Shen Jinyi was useful.

At present, the book has devoted a lot of chapters to the story of the fake daughter Mo Ling, and many other things have not been explained at all. Mo Ling is the favorite of everyone in the group and doesn’t care at all whether her biological mother is really dead or not. It seems that Mo Ling in the book has never known that Aunt Mo is the original wife.

Cheng Jinchu had only read one third of the book, so it was probably only one third that was readable, because she had changed the story of the fake daughter entering the mansion, and now, the text at the end had simply disappeared.

According to Chengzi, the adjusted plot will appear three days before the relevant plot, which means that she can still know what will happen in advance. After the subsequent text disappeared, the next plot appeared on the page, which read:

Princess Anle’s plum blossom viewing banquet!

Now Cheng Jinchu can only investigate on his own and keep a close eye on their movements.

After Cheng Jinchu returned, he quickly washed up and went to bed, but before he lay down, he could hardly open his eyes. After lying down, he couldn't fall asleep again. Since he couldn't fall asleep, he looked for Chengzi to chat in his consciousness.

[Xiao Chengzi, is that fake daughter about to arrive in Cangzhou City? ]

[Chu Chu, she has arrived and has already moved into the Zhao residence. She is now lying on Mr. Zhao’s bed.]

Little Orange sleeps a lot during the day, but now he is very energetic.

[…You don’t have to tell me the exact location. I deliberately told Magistrate Ning to let her go. The first thing she would think of was to flee to Cangzhou City. She was able to get here so quickly, which was worth it for me to find someone to escort her along the way. It’s rare to find someone as considerate as me.]

Cheng Jinchu really felt that she was too kind. She would not admit that she did not deal with the woman directly because she did not want to be involved with disgusting people.

Although it is not difficult to deal with the disgusting Second Young Master Zhao, it will affect her mission!

If the difficulty of the task increases, who should she cry to?

[That's right! Chuchu, you are the most beautiful, kindest, cutest, and best person I have ever seen. You even thoughtfully provided her with a carriage. You are truly a rare thoughtful and kind person in this world.]

[Xiao Chengzi just likes to tell the truth. Hey... She thinks I harmed her, and now she's looking for someone to help her vent her anger. I just want her to find someone to help her, so that I can do something big later! ]
