Chapter 83: Sister Wants to Become a Concubine (Obviously Have a CP)

Chapter 83: Sister Wants to Become a Concubine (Obviously Have a CP)

The Zhang family has a pair of sisters. The elder sister is as beautiful as a flower, and the younger sister is virtuous and family-oriented.

The original owner was the virtuous and family-oriented sister.

Zhang's parents passed away when they were eight years old. Before that, they lived a secluded life because their parents hoped that they would be like Cuiwei next door, and become concubines of an official, so that they would never have to worry about food and clothing and could also raise their younger brother.

But until the two of them died, their younger brother had not been born.

The original owner found it hard to accept the sudden death of his parents, but his sister's reaction was quite calm. Death is death whether early or late, and she continued to eat and sleep as usual every day.

When their parents were still alive, both of them didn't work and their living standard was pretty good. But now that their parents are gone and their savings are almost gone, the elder sister still wants to maintain her previous standard of living but doesn't want to work.

In the end, the original owner couldn't stand it anymore.

While cleaning the house, she also had to work in the fields to support herself and her sister who was doing nothing.

Therefore, the two sisters both had good reputations in the village. The original owner was a virtuous and capable girl who cared about the family, and the elder sister was a beautiful young lady.

Just by listening to the comments, you can already tell that the original owner's appearance cannot compare to her sister, and this is indeed the case.

The elder sister Zhang Yuan is fair-skinned, beautiful and has a well-proportioned figure, while the younger sister Zhang Shan is skinny, short, dark and thin.

My elder sister's appearance also attracted the attention of the county magistrate's wife. Soon, she sent a sedan chair to take Zhang Yuan as the county magistrate's eighteenth concubine.

The struggle in the county magistrate's mansion was very fierce. The county magistrate's wife could not win, so she went around looking for beautiful women to win over the county magistrate and help him consolidate his favor.

The day after Zhang Yuan entered the mansion, the county magistrate's wife gave her a sterilizing drug to prevent her from escaping from her control.

But Zhang Yuan didn't know, or even if she knew she didn't care.

By becoming the county magistrate's concubine, she had fulfilled her dream.

Because the original owner had a reputation for being virtuous, she married the eldest son of the village chief. She took care of her parents-in-law's daily life and cared about her younger brothers and sisters, nephews and nieces.

The original owner thought that even if she and Zhang Yuan could not love each other, they would not draw their swords against each other and become enemies. Zhang Yuan bribed the original owner's husband and replaced the prince with a cat, taking the original owner's son away.

The reason was that Zhang Yuan was infertile and urgently needed a son to consolidate her position, otherwise she said she would die in the backyard like other concubines.

The county magistrate's wife was waiting for Zhang Yuan to fall into the trap she had designed. The county magistrate's wife exposed Zhang Yuan's conspiracy, and the county magistrate directly threw the original owner's child to death and then poisoned Zhang Yuan to death.

The original owner and the village chief's family were also implicated by Zhang Yuan, and some members of the family died or went crazy.

"Yuan'er, Shan'er, please accept my condolences!"

Zhang Shan's shoulder was patted gently.

"We will, Aunt."

Zhang Shan wiped away her tears and turned her head to look at her sister Zhang Yuan beside her. At this time, Zhang Yuan's eyes were also a little moist, but it was not caused by sadness, but because she got up too early in the morning and did not get enough rest, so she kept covering her mouth and yawning.

After taking care of the funeral of the original owner's parents, the two sisters sat in the room and calculated the money left by their parents.

"It's four taels of silver in total, two taels per person. We can live in the house until she gets married. We also have four acres of paddy fields and six acres of dry land. If we rent it to uncle, we can earn rent every year. Of course, we can also sell it. The paddy fields cost ten taels, and the dry land costs seven taels."

"It's up to you to decide. I don't know any of this." Zhang Yuan leaned against the head of the bed and yawned very delicately.

"We'll split the money in half, and the land at home will also be split in half, I'll split it in half and you'll split it in half. I'll only deal with my half, and you can handle your half yourself."

"You won't help me?"

"Why should I help you?"

"I am your sister. Before our parents died, they asked us to support each other."

"Yes, you are the elder sister, what do you say? You are not thinking of asking me, your younger sister, to take care of you, right?"

"Is it not possible? I want to marry an official and become his concubine in the future."

"Can you be the only one to marry?"

The two are twins and look similar. Zhang Yuan looks more delicate and Zhang Shan looks more dignified. Both are beautiful.

"It doesn't matter. If you want to get married, just marry me."

Since Zhang Yuan said so, Zhang Shan took away her share of the silver and the land deed.

I came to my uncle's house and planned to ask them if they wanted to buy the land. "Shan'er, if the land is sold, what will you eat in the future?"

"Now I am the only one selling. I don't know what's going on with my sister yet. The money I get will last me a few more years. In another eight years, I'll be able to get married."

The uncle was silent for a long time. He was very envious of these lands, but he felt that the price was a bit high for his relatives. "Shan'er, uncle doesn't have so much money at the moment. Can I pay ten taels first, and then give you ten taels every year in the future?"

"Uncle has ten taels of silver now, so let's buy ten taels of silver worth of land. My niece is in a hurry to sell it now, but my sister's land is not sure when it will be sold. It will be the same if I buy her land in the future."

Still want to get something for nothing?

I'm just asking him first for the sake of our relationship.

The uncle looked unhappy. "Your price is a bit high. How about this? I'll pay 15 taels and buy two acres of paddy fields. I'm your uncle, and I can't bear to see you living a bad life."

"Uncle, you are such a nice person. I'll ask others first. If they all think the price is not right, I'll sell it to you. Anyway, you will not ignore me. You will cover the bottom line for me, right?"

Isn't it just tearing apart blood ties?

Then she is shameless!

My uncle's face changed. To be honest, ten taels of silver per mu of paddy field is a normal price, and there may not be anyone willing to sell even if you want to buy it.

"How could uncle be willing to let you make an extra trip? Give me these two mu of paddy fields. Mother, you take twenty taels of silver and give it to Shan'er."

The eldest aunt looked unhappy and put some silver coins on the table. Zhang Shan picked up the silver coins and looked unhappy too. "Uncle, I did so much today. I thought that you would take care of me because of your blood relationship with my father, but you wouldn't bully an orphan like me. It's really a pity that people leave and the tea is cold."

Zhang Shan pushed the silver in front of her uncle and left. Her uncle looked even worse, "What are you doing? I asked you to take 20 taels of silver, how much did you take?"

The eldest aunt pursed her lips, still feeling aggrieved, "Who would have thought that this little girl knew money."

The uncle pointed his finger and couldn't say anything. After what happened today, it would be difficult for them to control the two sisters in the future.

This was exactly the effect Zhang Shan wanted. When her uncle chased her out, she had already arrived at the village chief's house. The village chief thought the price was right and bought Zhang Shan's land in one go.

When leaving, I saw the original owner's husband in the previous life competing with other children on the side of the road to see who could pee farther.

If it were someone else, they might have stayed away from it, but Zhang Shan was different. She watched the whole process and silently acted as a referee for them.

Very good, the original owner’s husband was the last one.

Suddenly, someone tugged at the corner of her clothes, "Miss Zhang Er, please do not look at me."

It was a boy dressed as a scholar, about eight or nine years old.

"What does it mean to not look at what is indecent?"

"They... You are a girl, you shouldn't watch them. If others know about it, it will be bad for your reputation."

"They are competing in this place, so they are naturally not worried about being seen. So why don't you compete with them? Do you feel inferior after watching here for so long? You are still young, and you will grow up in the future."

Zhang Shan covered her mouth and glanced down unconsciously. She had no ill intentions and was not a pedophile. She just wanted to tease this pedantic little scholar.

The young scholar's face flushed red, "No way! I can pee farther than them!"

"Hahaha, I know, I know."

However, Zhang Shan's laughter seemed perfunctory to the young scholar. Men are most reluctant to accept being questioned, even if he is still young.

"I am not kidding!"

Worried that Zhang Shan wouldn’t believe him, he took off his pants and prepared to pee.

Zhang Shan immediately stopped laughing.

If she had known that the little scholar couldn't stand the provocation, she would not have teased him.

Zhang Shan was stopped by the young scholar and could not leave until he finished peeing.

Finally, evaluation is required.

"How is it? Am I better than them?"

Zhang Shan: “…”

"In our village, you are the only one who can pee the farthest. I am far inferior to you!"

The young scholar was a little embarrassed and said, "No, I found that my father peed much farther than me, but I believe that I will definitely peed farther than him in the future."

"Yes, come on!"

Zhang Shan didn't know how she got home. She hid at home and didn't go out for half a month. If there was no food at home, she really planned to stay at home.

Fortunately, I didn’t meet anyone this time when I went out.

Zhang Shan picked mushrooms and wild vegetables in the mountains and caught a pheasant. She ate the chicken stewed with mushrooms in the evening, which tasted particularly delicious.

"Shan'er, I smell the chicken, have you finished eating it?"

Since their parents died, the two sisters have been cooking separately.

Zhang Shan is a good cook, but Zhang Yuan had never been in the kitchen and didn't know how to make a fire. She went hungry for nine meals in three days and drank raw water for every meal. She only went to the town to buy snacks when she was too hungry to bear it anymore.

But she hid everything she bought in her room, and Zhang Shan didn't eat a single bite.

"Yeah, we've finished eating. Sister, what snack did you have today? It smells delicious."

"nothing."

Zhang Yuan didn't look too good, but she didn't want to sacrifice her snacks.

Having tasted the sweetness, Zhang Shan would run to the mountains from time to time, bringing back different delicious food every time, or selling things to buy herself new clothes. Zhang Yuan, who did not care at first, began to feel jealous.

"Shan'er, when our parents passed away, they hoped that we sisters would live in harmony. Are we being too unfilial by doing this?"

"That's true. Sister's share of the property hasn't been sold yet, right? Why don't we take it out and confiscate it so that we sisters can get along and run the business well?"

Zhang Yuan stopped talking again.

"Sister doesn't want to? That's really unfilial. Parents will be sad."

"Yes, but you must also confiscate the money you earned from selling the land, as well as the money you earned from selling the pheasants and ducks you caught in the mountains."

"I'm a person who lives one day at a time. Isn't that what you always say, sister? So, I spent all the money. Look at this dress, isn't it beautiful? It's new!"

The contradiction between Zhang Yuan's words and actions lies in the fact that she wants to lie down and not fight or compete, but she also wants to live a life of luxury. To put it bluntly, she wants others to serve her and take advantage of her body as a young lady.

Zhang Yuan was once again penniless and had to sell all her land. The person who sold it to was naturally her uncle, after all, it was her uncle who came to her house in person to inquire about the price.

No matter how many tickets Shan sold, her uncle would never dance in front of her again.

Even the aunt didn't dare to come to Zhang Shan's house easily. After all, the previous things were publicized by Zhang Shan, and they were afraid of being criticized.

In a blink of an eye, eight years have passed.

In this life, Zhang Yuan lost the careful care of the original owner. She was no longer as charming and beautiful as a young lady from a wealthy family, and she also lost her pure and noble character.

Some are left with only a mediocre life, which has smoothed out their edges.

On this day, the county magistrate's wife sent people to the countryside to look for pretty girls. Zhang Yuan and Zhang Shan were on the list, but the nanny liked Zhang Yuan more because Zhang Shan's dignified appearance was similar to that of her wife.
