Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter Chapter 191 He Shulan is captured

He Shulan was very excited when she received the letter from the Prince. She was glad to know that the Prince was safe and sound on the battlefield.

Life went on as usual, her belly grew bigger and bigger, and she stayed in her mansion, not daring to go out.

After He Shuzhen recovered from her injury, she dared not act like a demon anymore. She stayed obediently in Liu Mansion, closed the door, and lived her own life.

After a long time, all the neighbors knew that Liu Chen had moved to the countryside, leaving He Shuzhen and the maid in the mansion.

He was soon spotted by thieves in the capital, who sneaked into Liu's mansion in the middle of the night.

He stole all of He Shuzhen's dowry.

This made He Shuzhen very angry, and she immediately ran to the government office to report the case.

The thief was very smart. After stealing such a large sum of money, he did not stay in the capital, but left.

No matter how hard the authorities searched, they couldn't find the thief, so the case ended without any result.

He Shuzhen fell into a difficult situation. She had to live frugally every day and could only eat meat once every ten days or half a month.

He Shuzhen couldn't stand this kind of life anymore and ran to He's house to find her father.

When He's father heard about He Shuzhen's situation, he was displeased: "You should have kept the money safe since you knew you were the only one in the mansion."

"I put all my dowry in a cabinet and locked it up. I didn't know the thief was so capable."

Hearing this, He's father was furious: "Who is so brazen as you to put the dowry in the room? You should put it in a hidden warehouse."

He Shuzhen grumbled, "I know that, but the Liu Mansion is so small, where would we get the warehouse?"

"I didn't agree to let you get married at first, but you insisted on getting married. The life you have now is what you wanted. I think everything you have encountered is all your own fault."

He Shuzhen was unable to refute He's father's angry scolding: "It's no use saying anything now, hurry up and give me some money, I don't even have money to buy meat."

He's father asked the housekeeper to give three hundred taels of silver to He Shuzhen.

He Shuzhen was very unhappy: "You gave too little."

This made He's father angry: "Three hundred taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to live on for a few years. You are already married, and I can't support you forever."

He Shuzhen didn't think so. She felt that He's father should support her for life: "How can I, a woman, go to make money? You don't give me money. Do you want to starve me to death?"

"You are already married, so you shouldn't come to me for money. You should go to Liu Chen instead. I can only help you up to this point. You will have to walk the rest of the way on your own."

He Shuzhen began to get anxious and stepped forward to grab He's father: "I don't want to go to the countryside and live a farming life. You can't just ignore me."

He's father ignored He Shuzhen: "You are already married, you are not a member of the He family, I can't control you, there is no way to control you."

"Is it Bai Lian who is trying to sow discord between you? That's why you don't want to care about me?" He Shuzhen kept guessing like crazy.

"No." He's father explained impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense here. She has never said a bad word about you in front of me."

He Shuzhen didn't believe what his father said: "Ever since Bai Lian entered Liu's house, your mind has been all on her. When have you ever cared about me?"

"I've already given you three hundred taels of silver, what else do you want? You can't let me take care of you forever."

This is what He Shuzhen thought in her heart. If she relied on Liu Chen, she would have to eat coarse food all her life. Only if she relied on the Liu Mansion could she continue to live a life of wealth and splendor: "I am your daughter, you should take care of me all my life."

He's father didn't want to continue arguing with He Shuzhen, so he turned around and left.

He Shuzhen refused to let go and insisted on pulling He's father aside to explain things clearly.

At this time, He's father was also angry and pushed He Shuzhen hard, and the two of them started to struggle with each other.

He Shuzhen used too much force and knocked He's father over. He's father's head hit the table and fell in a pool of blood, soon stopping breathing.

This scared He Shuzhen so much that she stood there in panic, not knowing what to do. Then she heard footsteps coming from outside.

He ran out of the living room in fear and knocked the servant who was cleaning to the ground.

The servant didn't dare to get angry. He stood up from the ground, continued cleaning, and walked to the door of the living room.

Seeing He's father lying in a pool of blood, she screamed in fear and immediately called Aunt Bai who was taking care of the child over.

When Aunt Bai saw that Father He had stopped breathing, she sat on the ground in panic and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.

Immediately ask the servant to tell He Shulan about this matter.

He Shulan, who was pregnant at home, learned about her father's death and came to the He mansion with a big belly.

He asked, "What happened? Why did my father fall to his death?"

When Bai Lian saw He Shulan, she felt more confident and no longer as panicked as before. She asked the servant who was standing there trembling in fear to tell He Shulan everything.

He Shulan learned from the servants that He Shuzhen was related to He's father's death, and immediately asked the servants to go to the government office to report the case.

The government office worked very efficiently and captured He Shuzhen who was about to flee to the countryside.

At first, He Shuzhen refused to admit that she had anything to do with her father's death.

Under torture by the yamen runners, he confessed everything, including causing death by negligence and escaping from the case.

He Shuzhen was sentenced to fifteen years in prison.

After the case was settled, He Shulan began to busy herself with her father's funeral arrangements.

She was pregnant and couldn't stay in front of the mourning hall, so she asked Bai Lian to take her place.

The coffin was placed in the mansion for a few days, and then it was carried to the mountain and He's father was buried.

Bai Lian looked at He Shulan and said, "Now that your father is gone, who will take care of the He family from now on?"

"Of course you are in charge." At the beginning, He Shulan sent Bai Lian to her father, not wanting the He Mansion to fall into the hands of He Shuzhen and her daughter.

The He Mansion was nominally under the management of Bai Lian, but she was still the one in actual control.

This made Bai Lian ecstatic. Although she was very sad that He's father could not be saved, she still had to go on with her life.

After all, she now has a son: "Thank you, Princess. I will manage the Liu Mansion well."

He Shulan handed the key to the storehouse to Bai Lian and said, "You don't need me to teach you how to manage the backyard. Send the account book to the Prince's Mansion every month for me to review."

"Yes." Bai Lian took the key from He Shulan: "I will take good care of the Liu Mansion."

After finishing the work, He Shulan did not stay any longer and dragged his heavy body back to the Prince's Mansion.

She saw two letters on the table, which were sent back by the prince. She opened the letters and read them carefully.

As usual, the prince reported to her everything that happened on the battlefield in detail.

And told her that the war in southern Xinjiang would be over soon, which made He Shulan breathe a sigh of relief and touched her belly.

By the time the prince returned to the capital, the child was about to be born, so the timing was just right.
