Chapter 508: A Huge Trap

Qiao Xuan was startled, and then felt warm by his words. She chuckled and nodded.
She suddenly thought that he could be a scholar who would be imposing and brimming with unique ideas.
On the other hand, it was a very lively scene at Ding Jiahao’s home.
Since Widow Sun became Ding Jiahao’s concubine, she was not allowed to live outside with Ding Qingqing, her daughter.
Widow Sun tried to keep things the way they were, saying that she and her daughter could live in their old house. But Ding Jiahao’s wife, Ms. Qiu did not want this to happen.
She wondered when this bitch seduced her husband and forced herself to become his concubine, costing her husband’s position as Land Officer, and causing her to be laughed at by the whole village. So, she was not going to let this bitch do whatever she wanted.
Ms. Qiu said, ‘You are my husband’s concubine, so you have to move in with us, in case someone spreads a rumor about you being mistreated. We can’t afford to have our reputation ruined, and you can’t let others talk, right?”
When this was said, Ding Jiahao started to hesitate, even though Widow Sun had whispered so many things into his ears.
If she lived alone outside, she might hook up with someone else, and that would be a huge humiliation for him!
Widow Sun had to bite the bullet and she moved into Ding Jiahao’s home, after being stared at by the whole Ding family.
Ms. Qiu took her two sons and two daughter-in-laws to help her move and they scraped away every worthy penny from her.
Widow Sun wanted to make a fuss about it, but Ms. Qiu sneered. “You are just a concubine and you have no rights to counter me! Are you trying to set up rules for yourself? You are under my charge, and everything of yours is mine!”
Ms. Qiu’s son and daughter-in-law had terrible expressions on their faces. Widow Sun felt so annoyed but did not dare to counter her.
She was Ding Jiahao’s concubine, and Ms. Qiu could do whatever she wanted with her, like how mother-in-law did.
Her mother-in-law would try to keep the reputation when dealing with her daughter-in-law, but when the wife was dealing with a concubine… she could even get her killed.
Widow Sun felt so miserable.
Only now did she realize what her ‘clever trick had cost her.
A big trap, it was!
But if she did not jump into the trap, she might have been ruined by Ding Jiahao. They had hooked up because both of them felt like it, and they were in deep love when they had no conflict of interest. But when their interests clashed, they would understand exactly what they ought to do individually.
Unfortunately, she had no other choice.
She also knew that Ms. Qiu was angry, and that her sons and daughters-in-law must hate her. So, Widow Sun had no choice but to tolerate Ms. Qiu’s torment.
As for Ding Qingqing… She moved into Ding Jiahao’s home as well and called Ms. Qiu as the Mother, and addressed Widow Sun as Auntie Mother.
She would be lectured if addressing her wrongly, and so would Widow Sun.
Ding Qingqing had been so shocked by what had happened, and was uneasy every single day after that.
Widow Sun had not expected her daughter to suffer, though she herself suffered from Ms. Qiu’s torment. But when she tried to defend Ding Qingqing, Ms.Qiu sneered. “Don’t you dare forget who will have the say about this girl’s marriage eventually!”
That threw Widow Sun deep into the bottom of the valley and they did not dare to say one thing. She even privately told Ding Qingqing to work hard, so that Ms. Qiu would not be pissed.
This incident would become a fun topic in town, let alone in the village where people craved gossip as entertainment in the days to come..
