This kind of plot sounds very silly, but it can really poke the heart of the eldest daughter of the Liu family who yearns for romance. From then on, the two fell in love and couldn't control it.
If we follow the plot of novels or TV series, Cheng Qi and Liu Qiuyu should get married soon after falling in love, and then live happily ever after.
However, reality is not a TV series or novel, and Liu Qiuyu is not a princess in a fairy tale.
On her 25th wedding anniversary with Cheng Qi, Liu Qiuyu committed suicide by jumping off the building.
This incident caused quite a stir in the circle at the time. A talented woman famous in the imperial capital actually committed suicide in such a tragic way. This result was unacceptable to many people.
What is even more unacceptable is that three months after Liu Qiuyu committed suicide, Cheng Qi married his second wife with all the gongs and drums.
"I have heard some rumors before that Cheng Qi's second wife was actually his first love. After Liu Qiuyu's death, Cheng Qi was extremely sad. It happened that his first love had been by his side to comfort him during that time. So,
Cheng Qicai would be so moved that he would marry her home as quickly as possible."
Cheng Jinyan: "There is indeed such a saying. Do you think it is true?"
Ruan Qi shook her head, the corners of her mouth curled up with a hint of mockery.
"Compared to the romantic plot of 'the first love stays with you and never leaves you', I prefer Cheng Qi and his first love who had been secretly dating for a long time. Maybe they had already hooked up while Liu Qiuyu was still alive.
."
The little girl has always had a gentle temperament, and her words are rarely aggressive. But this time, I don't know why, but this time, in front of Cheng Jinyan, she used the word "hook up" so sharply to refer to his grandfather and grandmother. Such reckless and rude behavior is really not like her style.
Cheng Jinyan glanced at her in surprise.
"Miss Ruan, you seem to be very disgusted with this kind of thing."
"Yes." Ruan Qi admitted unabashedly, "I feel disgusting! Very disgusting!"
Cheng Jinyan felt like something was wrong.
Cheng Qi and Chu Lian secretly cheated on Chen Cang when Liu Qiuyu was still alive. Although this kind of thing is disgusting, in the end it is still an internal matter within the Cheng family.
As a bystander, why did Ruan Qi react so violently?
Cheng Jinyan frowned in confusion and was about to ask when Ruan Qi suddenly said: "Young Master Cheng, do the two people you just mentioned who are very important to you have anything to do with Liu Qiuyu?"
Cheng Jinyan didn't expect the little girl to be so smart, so he was startled and nodded.
"Yes. Those two people... are Liu Qiuyu's son and daughter-in-law, and they are also my second uncle and second aunt by blood."
Ruan Qi's hand on his knee clenched suddenly.
She lowered her eyes again, covering up the coldness in her eyes, and whispered: "Liu Qiuyu is Cheng Qi's first wife. The child she gave birth to should be the eldest. Why did you call him second uncle instead of eldest uncle?"
?"
This question made Cheng Jinyan silent for a moment.
Liu Qiuyu was Cheng Qi's first wife. She gave birth to a son one year after they got married.
And that first love only entered the family after twenty-five years. The child she gave birth to, Cheng Jinyan’s father, Cheng Baisong, should be younger than Liu Qiuyu’s son.
But Cheng Jinyan calls Liu Qiuyu’s son ‘second uncle’.
This means that Cheng Jinyan’s father, Cheng Baisong, is older than Liu Qiuyu’s child.
