Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Looking at Wen Chenyi's gritted teeth, one can imagine that there must be a lot of dirty business in the aristocratic families of the capital, but it is rare to see a legitimate son and an illegitimate daughter being swapped.

"Little sister, what do you want to do?"

Yao Feiran didn't hide anything anymore and said directly, "I want to be widowed."

Looking at her cold expression, Wen Chenyi realized that Zhou Qi's actions had also chilled his sister's heart, to the point that she wanted to kill him. He said, "I'll leave this matter to your brother. But being widowed is too much of a loss for you. Why not get a divorce? Then you can take his life later. Anyway, no one in the Wen family will dare to despise you."

"A divorce would probably involve a lot of back and forth, and I don't want to leave the child in the Zhou family. Zhou Qi's father saved my father back then, and if I force a divorce, I'm afraid I'll be seen as ungrateful."

"Hmph, what do you mean by saving my father? The one who saved him wasn't Zhou Qi's father, but someone else entirely."

Yao Feiran had only heard a few words when she learned that when the original owner's father was transferred to the capital, he passed through this place and was assassinated by his rivals. He was saved by a farmer. Because the transfer order was about to expire, the original owner's father left some money and rushed back to the capital. He also sent a letter, saying that he could grant the farmer one condition for saving his life.

The person who saved the original owner's father was actually a hunter from Wuxing Village, and he was from out of town. When the hunter was chatting with Zhou Qi's father, he got drunk and told him about it. Later, Zhou Qi's father asked his eldest son, Zhou Qi's older brother, to push him off a cliff to his death.

A few months later, Zhou Qi's father passed away. Before his death, he gave Zhou Qi a keepsake. He thought that since the other party was a high-ranking official in the capital, a few coins would be of no use. It would be better to marry the daughter of the Wen family, which would help Zhou Qi's career.

Fearing the Wen family would deny it, Zhou Qi made a big fuss about it, so everyone in the capital knew that Zhou Qi's father had saved the original owner's father.

The debt of saving her life was naturally a debt of gratitude as heavy as a mountain, and it wouldn't hurt to marry a concubine's daughter. It's just that I never expected the original owner of this body to insist on stepping into this pit of fire.

"Brother Zhou Qi drowned; it was also my doing."

"Yes, he sold my nephew, killed my father's savior, and has a criminal record. He deserves to die."

Seeing his nonchalant expression, Yao Feiran recalled that in the original plot, the Wen family's downfall should have occurred after the new emperor ascended the throne, which would take a long time, so she could deal with it gradually.

"How is the child?"

Yao Feiran isn't the original owner of this body, and doesn't have much affection for this son yet, but if he's a good person, she'll naturally raise him well.

Wen Chenyi wore a complicated expression, and after a moment of silence, said, "If it weren't for his eyes and nose resembling yours, I really wouldn't have recognized him. I'll bring him over after the funeral."

"..."

"By the way, where is my niece? I brought her a gift."

"That's very thoughtful."

Yao Feiran smiled faintly. Wen Chenyi and Zhou Ruorong had only met a few times, so it could be considered that she loved the house because of the person she loved.

"Little sister, I've noticed that you've become much smarter and more polite these past few years."

Yao Feiran couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Shut up."

Wen Chenyi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's more like it."

.......

After Zhou's mother was formally buried, Wen Chenyi brought over a chubby-faced child, followed by a woman.

When Zhou Qi saw the child and the woman, his legs instantly went weak.

Wen Chenyi sneered and said, "Zhou Qi, you should know this person, right? She was one of the midwives when my sister gave birth."

Zhou Qi's face stiffened, and his hands began to tremble.

"Kneel down and tell me everything that happened back then."

The woman knelt down and said, "Back then, Lord Zhou helped me give birth to my wife. My wife gave birth to a baby boy. Lord Zhou let me take the baby boy in exchange for the Second Miss, while the baby boy was given to my eldest brother by Lord Zhou."

"You're spouting nonsense!"

Zhou Qi roared, his fingers trembling.

"I have not lied in what I have said today, otherwise may I be struck by lightning and never be reincarnated."

Wen Chenyi sneered, "Zhou Qi, if I hadn't investigated thoroughly, I wouldn't have brought her here at all. Your elder brother sold my nephew to someone else to be a page. You're trying to deceive my sister by passing off your illegitimate daughter as your legitimate daughter. You really have a lot of nerve."

"I didn't..." Zhou Qi knew that any excuses would be useless now. This boy was too much like her. He guessed that Wen Chenyi was responsible for his older brother's death. He finally felt scared.

Wen Feiran likes him and can give him more resources, but he can't stand her being treated as inferior, so he tries to suppress her in every way. He even dislikes her child, thinking that even if she is the legitimate daughter of the Wen family, so what? She will still be used and discarded by him for the rest of her life.

Now that the truth has been revealed, a knife is hanging over his head, and he is finally afraid.

"Today, you'd better acknowledge my nephew first, or don't blame me for being impolite. As for that illegitimate daughter, you can either send her back to her birth mother." Wen Chenyi's face showed a mocking expression: "Our Wen family is not unreasonable. If you don't want to send her away, you can either take that woman as a concubine, since she has borne you a child."

After Wen Chenyi left, Yao Feiran brought the chubby-faced boy into the house. The boy was thin but had a large head and looked somewhat rugged. It was unexpected that his parents, who were both delicate-looking, were so rough around the edges.

If you look closely, his eyes and nose still resemble the original.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Zhou Ergou, and they say you're my mother?"

"Yes." Yao Feiran's lips twitched, and after a moment's thought, she said, "From now on, your name will be Zhou Chengyuan."

"Zhou Chengyuan..."

The boy seemed a little dissatisfied with such a refined name, but his stomach was already growling, so Yao Feiran had a table full of dishes brought over.

"Thank you... Mother."

Zhou Chengyuan's face turned slightly red, and he carefully ate his food.

Yao Feiran originally thought that the other person had not been taught manners and would eat messily, after all, he was still a child. However, although he ate quickly, he was careful and afraid of making a mess of the table.

This is a habit that can be developed over many years of observing people's expressions and moods.

Zhou Ruorong also came over, staring intently at the boy: "Mother, this is my younger brother."

"Yes, from now on she will be your closest person."

After a while, Wen Chenyi returned, watching Zhou Chengyuan eat and drink with great interest.

"This child eats so much, Mother should be happy."

Yao Feiran frowned slightly when she saw the wound on Zhou Chengyuan's neck.

Wen Chenyi explained, "You don't know, the young master of the family my nephew was sold to has homosexual tendencies. Several of his pageboys suffered because of him. If my nephew hadn't looked like this, he probably wouldn't have escaped his clutches either. In a way, it's a blessing in disguise. However, because he's not liked by the young master, he's inevitably bullied."

Yao Feiran felt a wave of nausea. Zhou Chengyuan was only six years old, yet someone still had such thoughts.

"Little sister, don't be angry. I've already taken care of it. The young master will be a eunuch for the rest of his life."

"......"

The original owner's older brother was really quick and ruthless in his actions; she was probably very close to becoming a widow.
