Chapter 1734
Once the atmosphere was interrupted, it would be difficult to gather that kind of tragic feeling again. Old Madam Chi was so angry that she couldn't even cry.
Chi Shuang smiled slowly again, looked into Old Madam Chi's eyes, and said without thinking, "I don't plan to get married."
Her voice was very soft, softer than the wind.
It made a rumbling sound in Madam Chi's ears, louder than thunder.
How can a girl who doesn't plan to get married be controlled?
This is a determination to set up a new business!
Old Madam Chi's hands and feet were cold, and she felt that all the secret tricks she had in the backyard could no longer be used.
The other party had no weaknesses! She had no idea where to start.
......
Lord Zhao was held back by urgent official business. When he was ordered to rush to the Chi family ancestral hall to supervise the opening of the hall, he heard a lot of noise coming from the direction of the hall from afar. When he got closer, he learned that Old Madam Chi had staged a farce of "protecting the tablet with her death".
With him around, Chi Shuang successfully moved her father's lineage out of the Chi family and set up a new household.
At the same time, the imperial edict conferring the title of Lady Zhongyi on Chi Shuang was also issued.
After the imperial edict of "Madam Zhongyi" was read out in public, everyone in the Chi family turned pale, and several elders were so jealous that they trembled all over and fainted on the spot.
In the end, not a single bit of this overwhelming glory reached the Chi family!
The cousins from the second and third rooms were furious. Originally, their value could have doubled and they could have married into better families.
Everything was ruined by Chi Shuang.
They hate it so much!
When Chi Shuang took the imperial edict, the corners of her lips slightly raised, and a calm coldness flashed across her eyes.
Boom! There was a muffled sound in the distance, and Madam Chi fell straight down under the old locust tree, her forehead hitting the rough bark, leaving a bloody mark.
It wasn't over yet. Lord Zhao was ordered to take back the three shops in East City that Ying Ruolan had given to Old Madam Chi, and he managed to wake her up from her fainting spell.
In order to compensate Chi Yiqing for his death, the court gave the three shops to Chi Shuang.
Poof! Madam Chi spat a mouthful of blood onto the trunk of the locust tree. The dark red bloodstains flowed down the cracked bark like a hideous curse.
Chi Shuang returned home. When she stepped into the threshold of her new house, dusk was falling heavily.
This is a two-courtyard house. It is not very big, but it is too big for her to live there alone.
The house was fully furnished, with nothing missing. The furnishings were not luxurious, but they had everything that was necessary.
Just deserted.
Not popular.
In the empty main hall, the draft was swirling with fallen leaves, the step-out bed in the wing was wide enough for one to roll around in, and even the stove in the kitchen had eyes built into it.
But now she was the only one eating. How could she use it? She didn't even want to eat.
Chi Shuang walked straight to the main hall. On the ebony altar, the tablets of his father Chi Yiqing and mother Huo Qingqing stood side by side. Behind them was the tablet of his younger brother, forming a triangle.
She left an empty seat for herself next to her brother.
As a family, everything should be together.
She took out a piece of silk and ran her fingertips over the hairline crack on her father's tablet - it was left when her grandmother smashed her mother with the tablet.
"Father, mother, brother," she placed three eternal lamps next to each other, the flames crackling, "we have a home now."
Suddenly there was a rustling sound outside the window. Chi Shuang pushed open the carved window and saw Princess Haiyan leading a group of people approaching.
Her eyes met everyone else's.
The eyes of those people were like lights, so warm that it made people want to cry.
The whole yard became lively.
Shi Anxia had difficulty walking and walked slowly. She smiled and explained, "The door was not locked. We knocked on the door, but no one answered, so we came in. Miss Chi, do you mind?"
Chi Shuang woke up as if from a dream, "No, I don't mind."
A hearty laugh drove away the chill of late autumn, "No one is allowed to compete with me today, I'm here to claim my daughter as my goddaughter!"
