After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 611 - 611 A person you would never expect

611 A person you would never expect

The next day, Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo were not surprised when they heard the news.

After all, Ge Chunru’s younger siblings and Mdm Niu had been squeezing her dry until she was about to collapse.

Many times, it was easy for the poor to enjoy a luxurious life, but many people found it difficult to live a poor life after enjoying a luxurious life, and wouldn’t be able to live in adversity.

Obviously, Ge Chunru was one of those who could not live in poverty and adversity.

!!

Even without Ge Chunyi and Ge Chunying’s squeezing her dry, Ge Chunru would most likely have chosen to fall when she had no money.

The three siblings were all the same.

They never thought of working hard to climb up but always wanted to take advantage of others to do so.

However, in reality, climbing up with one’s own ability was obviously the best.

As the magistrate of Northern City, Xiao Hanzheng went to take a look personally when such a thing happened.

He also had an unexpected discovery, which reassured the secret that he had known before.

After getting off the carriage and returning home, Xiao Hanzheng said to Shi Qingluo, “Someone has gone to collect the bodies of Ge Chunru and her two siblings and even bought a good piece of land to bury them.”

“No one claimed Mdm Niu’s body, so I asked the yamen people to choose a random place to bury her,” he continued.

Shi Qingluo was not surprised that no one claimed Mdm Niu’s body.

Third Son Shi had been working for her young husband and had returned to Northern City recently.

Third Son Shi also let Second Granddaughter Shi and Third Granddaughter Shi marry two of the families in Northern City.

Although these families were not considered wealthy, they had good character.

Since Mdm Niu was dead, the yamen naturally had to inform her family, but they didn’t go.

Third Son Shi was disgusted with Mdm Niu, and they were already unrelated with the divorce anyway, so it was reasonable for him not to go.

Especially now that he had remarried a widow and the widow was pregnant, he did not want to make his current wife unhappy because of an ex-wife he hated.

Second Granddaughter Shi and Third Granddaughter Shi had once been sold by Mdm Niu.

If it wasn’t for Third Son Shi’s timely discovery and rescue, their lives would have been very difficult now.

The two of them hated Mdm Niu, who valued men over women and had never really been good to them, more than they hated their family.

When they heard that Mdm Niu had died, although they didn’t gloat, they didn’t feel sad either.

They all refused to collect her corpse.

Both of them had married.

In ancient times, a married daughter was no longer a member of her parents’ household.

It was also reasonable for the two of them to choose not to go.

The next in-line was Shi Qingluo.

Her husband was a magistrate, so no one from the yamen came to inform her personally.

However, she had transmigrated here, and as soon as she arrived, Shengyuan was pushed to the ground and succumbed to her head injury because of Mdm Niu.

Mdm Niu even wanted to sell her to be buried with the dead.

If she hadn’t taught her a lesson, her days would also have been hellish.

So how could she go and bury Mdm Niu’s corpse?

Xiao Hanzheng also knew his wife’s character, so he didn’t ask her anything and just disposed Mdm Niu’s body as an unclaimed corpse.

Shi Qingluo said, “Third Son Shi has changed. He has done a lot of good deeds in the past year. He married a widow who was driven out of her husband’s family. His life is more harmonious.

“However, Mdm Niu has never changed. Third Son Shi gave her a chance, but she never cherished it. She has completely displayed the evil side of human nature.

“She deserved her ending today! She deserved it!”

A mother like Mdm Niu was worse than a beast and wasn’t worthy of any sympathy.

It was also because of this that she became so pitiful that nobody came to collect her corpse.

Therefore, one should still be kind and not do evil.

Then, Shi Qingluo asked curiously, “Who collected the bodies of Ge Chunru and her two siblings? Are they your scumbag father’s people?”

Although Xiao Hanzheng’s scumbag father used to like Ge Chunru so much, she did not think that he was one who would be so nice to bury her and her two siblings.

Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. “It’s not my scumbag father, but someone you would never expect.”

Shi Qingluo couldn’t think of anyone. “Who? ”

“Their biological mother,” Xiao Hanzheng replied.

Shi Qingluo was shocked. “Ah, didn’t their mothers die? Could it be that she didn’t actually die after being washed away by the river?”

“Not only is she alive,” Xiao Hanzheng nodded and said, “she even became the concubine of the North Prince.”

Shi Qingluo was a little dumbfounded. “Ah, what’s going on? ”

“Back then, the North Prince fell in love for Ge Chunru’s mother,” Xiao Hanzheng said.

“After her mother found out the North Prince’s identity, she came up with a show and acted that she was dead.

“That was why when her mother was washed away by the river, Ge Chunru found a bag of gold while looking for her.

“Then, the North Prince brought Ge Chunru’s mother back and she became his secondary concubine. She also gave birth to a son and a daughter.

“The North Prince’s secondary concubine treated their son and daughter like treasures, but she didn’t care about the lives of Ge Chunru and her two other siblings.

“Even when the three siblings were in such a difficult situation, she did not help them.

...

“Obviously, she regarded the three of them as a stain on her reputation. That bag of gold could be considered to be a scissors to their kinship.

“She was probably afraid that the North Prince would be unhappy and her current son and daughter might be implicated.

“When the three of them are dead, her people went to the yamen to collect their corpses and bury them.

“They identified themselves as their distant relatives. My people followed the leads and found out that they were acting under the North Prince’s concubine.”

Shi Qingluo was very surprised by it, “It appears that Ge Chunru’s mother is also cruel. No wonder she could raise three selfish and cruel children.”

She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Although we didn’t cause the deaths of Ge Chunru and the other two, we are responsible for the three of them falling into such a state. Will the North Prince’s secondary concubine seek revenge on us?”

Xiao Hanzheng thought for a moment and said, “The possibility of revenge is not high. Her son is very popular with the North Prince. The heir of the North Prince has not been decided yet. She is very ambitious and wants her son to inherit the residence.

“The Ge Kingdom is different from Daliang. They don’t care much about whether their heir is a legitimate or illegitimate son. What they care about is one’s ability.

“The son who is the strongest and can stand out among the brothers, will be the heir.

“They’re pursuing the strategy of raising wolves. Whoever’s stronger will win.

“Hence, Ge Chunru’s mother would not risk causing us trouble and derailing some of the North Prince’s plans for the sake of three dead blemishes.

...

“Their mother is not only ambitious but also very smart. In this aspect, she is much better than Ge Chunru and Ge Chunying.

“Of course, if we are in trouble or if it is really the North Prince’s plan to capture you and bring you back to his residence in the Ge Kingdom, their mother will step on us a few times without exposing herself. She might even want to kill us.

“She won’t take the initiative to take revenge now. After all, she’s afraid that the North Prince’s consort and his other women will have something against her.

“If the other women knew about her past identity and what happened to Ge Chunru and her siblings, it would stain her son’s current reputation. It would be very difficult for him to seize the throne.”

One would naturally have to be more careful in order not to expose one’s weakness.

Furthermore, she had abandoned Ge Chunru and her two siblings back then.

This showed that she was a ruthless person.

Now that the three siblings were dead, not because of a third-party but because of Ge Chunru’s fire, in light of her personal interest, she would not do anything irrational.
