Reincarnation: I Have Always Been Rich Chapter 661

Chapter 661: Chapter 661

In the capital, the most talked about event was probably the Qu family recovering their lost child.

In the upper circles of the capital, many people were very curious about the child that the Qu family had recovered. Unfortunately, the Qu family had hidden it too well, and only a few people knew about it. Moreover, the few people who knew about it had also been silenced by the Qu family, and they were not allowed to speak anymore.

The more the Qu family kept a low profile, the more curious everyone became.

As such, when those n.o.blewomen gathered in twos and threes for afternoon tea or when they gathered together to play cards, they would discuss this topic for a while. “Ah, the Qu family has hidden the child that they found so tightly. It looks like they really take it seriously.”

“I don’t think so.”

“Why?”

“I think that if the Qu family would hide this so tightly, it might not be because they value the one they found.” The lady who spoke deliberately lowered her voice. “I think she is not presentable. The Qu family is afraid of damaging their reputation.”

“Mm.” Everyone nodded in agreement after listening to the lady’s a.n.a.lysis.

“I think there’s a high chance that it’s not wrong. I heard that the Qu family’s child was carried to a poor mountain village by someone. She came from the mountain, so how could her upbringing be any good? Anyway, I feel that she’s far from being comparable to the n.o.blewomen in our circle.”

Every word entered Chen Meng’er’s ears. As she listened to the gossip of these n.o.blewomen, the smile on Chen Meng’er’s face became more and more brilliant.

On the other hand, after Zhou Yunjie heard it, his usually expressionless face was now filled with anger. He was so angry that he wanted to go and settle scores with these n.o.blewomen.

“Don’t bother about them. They can say whatever they want. Just let them say it,” Chen Meng’er pulled Zhou Yunjie and said.

“But they…” Zhou Yunjie felt sorry for Chen Meng’er.

“If you get bitten by a dog, are you going to bite it back? If you argue with them, you’ll only lower your status. Let’s go.”

Chen Meng’er was sometimes very tolerant of those who provoked her. However, if they offended someone she cared about, then she would make things worse and take revenge.

Han Ying, the youngest daughter of the Han family, had been pampered since she was young. Of course, the pampering of the Han family was different from the pampering of other families. Han Ying was no less ambitious than the others.

As for the Han family, it was a family that was slightly inferior to the Qu family in the capital.

The Han family was originally on equal footing with the Qu family. The Elder of the Han family was like Elder Qu, a founding father of the country. It was precisely because Elder Qu and Elder Han had a strong revolutionary friendship that the Qu family became in-laws with the Han family.

The two Elders wanted to say that under their original friendship, they were even closer.

However, Elder Han’s health was not as good as Elder Qu’s. He had not even reached 70 when he pa.s.sed away early because of the pain left behind by the war. He had left behind his two sons and two daughters who were not very successful.

On the other hand, Elder Han’s two sons were ambitious, but they were not very capable people.

All these years, Elder Han’s two sons had relied on their father’s connections in the military and political circles. They were doing quite well, however, it was impossible for them to make the Han family the same as when Elder Han was still alive.
