Quick Wear: The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 292: Rebirth of the Son-in-law (1)

"Pfft!"

Ning Ning's entire body fell into the water. He was so scared that he quickly held his breath, swam upwards a few times, and floated to the surface.

"Ahem, why am I so unlucky? I fell into the water as soon as I got here, ahem!"

The body's limbs were weak and it had little strength, and its shoulders were aching. There were lights in the distance, which was a pleasure boat. There were birds singing and dancing inside, and the singing could be heard from far away.

The original body must have fallen from that boat, no wonder no one found him.

There was also a figure that had swam a long way away, and in a blink of an eye he reached the shore, rode on a horse on the shore, and disappeared in a flash.

Ning Ning used a card on this body to restore its strength. He swam to the shore in one go and climbed onto the shore stumblingly.

Rubbing his head, Ning Ning searched through his original body's memories and groped his way back in the direction of his home.

At this time, the sky was dark, the road was dim, and there was not even a pedestrian.

He did not feel scared, but took the opportunity to quickly read the original plot.

Coincidentally, this world is an ancient dimension, and he has become someone's father-in-law again - this time it is a dimension of a son-in-law.

The original owner was a wealthy businessman with only one daughter, so he planned to find a son-in-law to inherit the family line.

But my daughter just happens to like a local young man named Qi Menglai.

Qi Menglai was indeed handsome and talented in literature, and he was also fond of his daughter, but Qi Menglai was determined to study hard and take the imperial examinations.

He thought being a son-in-law's wife was not a nice thing to do, and that he would have no authority as an official in the future, so he refused to marry into the family.

The original person was also a person who loved talents and thought that as long as he could be good to his daughter, it would be enough.

So, the original body secretly gave Qi Menglai a lot of money as a betrothal gift and to give him a good reputation. After the marriage, she also used the excuse of missing her daughter to let them live at home.

In other words, although Qi Menglai eats, uses and lives in their house, he is not their son-in-law. In name, Qi Menglai still married his daughter.

They just agreed that if Qi Menglai and his daughter had children in the future, one would be adopted by the Ning family.

Later, the original body had an accident during a banquet, fell into the lake while drunk, and drowned.

But in fact, a boatman took advantage of the original person's drunkenness and aloneness and knocked him into the water with a paddle.

But the original body is dead and cannot speak for himself, so the truth is covered up.

Just after his funeral, rumors spread that the reason the original body's business was so big was because he helped officials hide stolen money, and the officials gave him all the business in return.

Now that the official who accepted bribes has been brought to justice, if the court uncovers the original crime, all of his property will be confiscated and handed over to the court.

The rumors became more and more true, and some even said that officials were already hanging around the Ning family's business.

Daughter Ning Rao was frightened and panicked. She believed in the original body's character and would not do such a thing, but she had never handled business matters and didn't know how to deal with it.

Qi Menglai also said to her, "Although we believe that father-in-law would not do such a thing, how can the government be so reasonable? I am afraid that even if they are right, they will peel off three layers of skin from you. Why should we give away the family property that father-in-law has worked so hard to save? It would be fine if it was just the two of us, but we still need to have children in the future. How can you bear to let them live in poverty!"

Ning Rao naturally couldn't bear it.

Qi Menglai gave her some advice, asking her to change the account books and change the family's money shop, house deeds and land deeds to Qi Menglai's name, saying that they were all Qi family property.

In this way, even if the imperial court wanted to confiscate the Ning family’s property, they would not be able to find anything, and they could keep their things.

His original wife died early, and he never remarried. He only took a woman named Liu as a concubine, hoping to have someone to talk to him.

Aunt Liu usually looks kind, gets along well with Ning Rao, and acts like an elder, and is trusted by Ning Rao.

Aunt Liu also stood up to speak for Qi Meng, saying that women like them knew nothing and that such matters as setting up a household should be left to men.

Ning Rao believed Qi Menglai and Aunt Liu and did as they said.

But just a few days after giving the family property to Qi Meng, he changed his attitude and used all kinds of means to torture Ning Rao.

Aunt Liu also hid at this time, saying that she was not Qi Menglai's mother-in-law, so she had no say at all. She even added fuel to the fire and watched Ning Rao suffer.

There were many ways of torturing people in the inner house, and soon Ning Rao couldn't bear it anymore and was tortured to death.

Later, Qi Menglai sent Aunt Liu away and entrusted the business to a relative he trusted. He concentrated on his studies, passed the imperial examination soon, and married his relative's cousin.

His cousin was his childhood sweetheart and didn't want to be his concubine, so Qi Menglai used some means to annul his marriage certificate with Ning Rao, saying that Ning Rao was just a concubine and not his original wife.

The term "equal wife" was actually just a nice name, and the imperial court did not recognize it at all, so he actually meant to demote his wife to a concubine.

If he wasn't afraid of a bad reputation, he wouldn't even want to give Ning Rao the title of co-wife.

But then again, Ning Rao is already dead, and the dead don’t care about their status at all.

Qi Menglai happily married his cousin, and they lived together in love.

The original body was also puzzled. He asked himself why Qi Menglai was so vicious since he had never treated Qi Menglai badly.

It was only after he turned into a spirit that he realized that Qi Menglai was actually reborn!

In his first life, Qi Menglai studied very hard, but unfortunately he failed in the exams time and again.

Neither the original body nor Ning Rao said anything, but he became more and more irritable and angry, so the original body and Ning Rao tried their best to take care of his emotions and self-esteem.

But the more this happened, the more sensitive and suspicious he became. He often questioned Ning Rao whether she thought he was useless and questioned whether his original self thought he was shameful.

The original body suggested that Qi Menglai do business with him, but Qi Menglai said that the original body was humiliating him, thinking that he would never be able to pass the exam again, and was unwilling to spend money to let him take the exam.

In such a rage, he actually attacked Ning Rao!

This is too much!

The original body was furious and ordered the servants to kick him out, and then asked Ning Rao to divorce him!

Qi Menglai increasingly believed that his original father and daughter were from a merchant family, and they despised the poor and loved the rich, and looked down on others.

He was in a bad mood and drank a few more glasses of wine. He then went out for a horseback ride to relieve his boredom. However, he got drunk and while riding across a bridge, he fell off his horse and into the river, where he drowned.

Unexpectedly, he was reborn, and then he was determined to take revenge on his original father and daughter.

First, he knew that the original body was out for social events and was prone to drinking too much, so he deliberately bribed the boatman and paddled the original body into the lake and died.

Then he spread rumors, colluded with Aunt Liu to embezzle the family property, and then forced Ning Rao to death!

He thought he was getting revenge, just taking back what was rightfully his.

Even the fact that he was able to pass the exam was because he had taken the exam several times, knew the test questions, and studied hard in advance.

When Ning Ning came through, her original body had fallen into the lake drunk and lost his life.

He escaped decisively, finished watching the original plot, and walked home.

I knocked on the doorknob, and the doorman rubbed his eyes and came out to open the door. When he saw that it was Ning Ning, he was so frightened that all sleepiness disappeared.

"Master, why is it you? Why are you all wet?"

"Okay, don't make a fuss. Tell the butler to come over immediately. I have something to tell you."

Fortunately, the weather was not cold, so even if Ning Ning got wet, it would not hurt her body.

He had read the original plot and knew that the butler was the original owner's confidant. Later, Qi Menglai embezzled the family property. The first thing he did was to frame the butler for stealing family property and send him to exile.

Only after getting rid of him can we deal with Ning Rao.
