Chapter 110: Hunger

The spring sun is getting warmer, and the flowers in the garden are blooming one after another, such as pink peach blossoms, white magnolias, blue hydrangeas, red peonies, and purple wisterias, which are very lively. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info is only within the Zhenguo Mansion, but it lacks a sense of leisure to enjoy flowers. The Duchess of Zhenguo worships Buddha all the year round, and several sons and grandsons have died on the battlefield, which has caused her to suffer blows one after another, and she has long lost interest in those beautiful scenery and jade food. And the wife of the prince of Zhenguo, Guan Shi, adhering to the ancestral teachings of the Zheng family, advocating simplicity and simplicity, is quiet and submissive, not only rarely goes out, but even with the wives of various families, she is also very cautious. The two people in the Zheng family who love to be lively are Zheng Zeming and Zheng Zixin, brothers and sisters. Zheng Zeming lost his father since he was a child, and Zixin was the widow of the third master of the Zheng family. A brutal and willful, arrogant and arrogant.

Now Zheng Zeming was punished by his grandfather and was detained in the study, writing poems. And Zheng Zixin was about to get married, and the house was busy helping her with the dowry, and invited the grandmother from the palace to teach her etiquette and rules, and even she was so busy that she rarely had the opportunity to torture Wei Yan.

Wei Yan sat on the stone steps behind the kitchen, holding a bamboo shoot in his hand, and was absentmindedly washing. A basin of sewage splashed at her, and an obese mother-in-law cursed loudly, "Useless things, tell you to wash the bamboo shoots, you have been grinding all morning, delaying the master's meal, look at me I don't tear your face!" ”

Sewage trickled down the hair on her forehead, Wei Yan wiped her face with her sleeve, raised her head, and looked at the fat woman in front of her who was screaming and scolding, she didn't feel ashamed or uneasy, but felt a little ridiculous.

All fat and fierce women can always remind her of that mother-in-law. Ji Pozi's bloated body, after being pierced by a sword, the scene of falling down with a bang was firmly imprinted in her heart and lingered. Will the ugly woman in front of her have the same fate as Ji Pozi?

"Are you stupid?" The woman scolded, "What are you laughing at with the old lady stupidly? Hurry up and wash the bamboo shoots for me! Otherwise, there is a good feeling for you! ”

Wei Yan lowered his head slowly, dressed in a linen shirt soaked with sewage, and casually threw the bamboo shoots into the basin of water and washed them gently.

She was beaten many times. They kicked her, pinched her fingertips, and beat her with sticks they picked up, but they did not dare to hurt her face or mutilate her limbs. Because Zheng Zeming also has to come to check regularly to see if his "belongings" are in good condition. Because of this, she suffered a lot less.

She didn't care about the difficulties of the subordinates, she could endure the insults and scolding.

The last person she wants to see is Zheng Zixin. The woman who is about to become Xu Lang's wife. Listen to her voice in front of herself, calling "Brother Xu"; Thinking about how much love and respect for "Brother Xu" will be in the future...... Every word, like a sword in the heart, made Wei Yan's heart ache so much that he couldn't breathe.

Xu Lang, Xu Lang, you are going to marry this woman who makes my life worse than death! How can I watch her put on her wedding dress and marry you? How can I forgive all that she has done to me, against her will, to bless you with her piano and song?

But if I want to hate her, to hate her, to curse her, how will I not involve you as well?

Wei Yan finished peeling and washing the bamboo shoots amid the fat woman's curse. Mrs. Liu, who helped the cook, took advantage of the fat woman and the cook's unpreparedness and quickly stuffed her with a boiled egg.

She hid the eggs in her sleeves, smiled at Mrs. Liu, lifted the bucket next to the stove, walked to the well to draw water, and hurriedly ate the eggs while no one was paying attention.

She was hungry. The amount of food you get at each meal is so small that it's hard to get enough food. She was more afraid of starvation than being beaten. Zheng Zixin once beat her up for refusing to obediently do the rough work that a slave should do, and starved for two days. The taste was so unpleasant, my stomach was empty, and it hurt from one sob, and all I could think of was how to eat a mouthful of rice. The smell of rice wafting from the kitchen made her even more sad. She clutched her stomach and curled up in a corner of the firewood room, without any strength in her body, and she really wanted to die.

Later, she gave in. She learned to wash clothes, brush the toilet, dry vegetables, fetch water, and wash vegetables...... Just to get that bite, the best food.

When she was lucky, she could eat a bowl of rice, or half a steamed bun that had never been cold, and a few leafy vegetables with clear soup and little water, and she was very satisfied. When you're unlucky, you'll only get a bowl of muddy rice soup and two mouthfuls of dry food that are almost spoiled......

In the middle of the night, she sat in a corner where the moonlight did not shine, hungry and tired, and so sad that she wanted to cry. But she couldn't shed half a tear. It seems that on the night her innocence was taken away, she had dried the tears of her life.

She wanted to die, but she struggled to survive. She wants to see Wei Jiang, she wants to see Xu Lang, and she also wants to let these people who bullied her get the end they deserve, one by one!

Luo Tuo, like her, also began to learn to tolerate and flatter......

The small kitchen is a place dedicated to Zheng Zixin's small stove, and the cook and others are directly under Zheng Zixin's orders, and the fat woman is even more eager to hug Zheng Zixin's thigh to curry favor. The only one who treated her kindly was a dark and thin young woman surnamed Liu. I heard that it was a newly bought assistant chef who was used to cooking medicinal food. It was to make Zheng Zixin more fertile after marriage, and specially found someone to make some nourishing soup for her.

Liu Niangzi sometimes stuffed some small fruits, candied fruits, pastries, etc. for Wei Yan. She took pity on this girl with a good face but a very humble face, such a delicate body, it should be a fair and delicate skin raised by many bird's nest snow lotus, obviously from a good background, but she died so hard......

Wei Yan was glad that Zheng Zeming was still in love and never forgot about her. Every time before being carried to see him, he always gets a chance to take a bath. She scrambling to wash her battered body, enjoying the brief but pleasant moments of comfort. She carefully applied incense powder to every inch of her skin, hoping that the wounds after being kicked and beaten would not leave too many marks on her body. She put on beautiful clothes and went to see Zheng Zeming, and occasionally persuaded him softly, begging him to let her out. It's just that he is too cowardly, looking ahead and backward, he has no idea at all, and just blindly tells her to wait and wait......

Even, she deliberately showed the bruises on her arms, telling him that she was not as high as he imagined here. He was distressed, holding her arm and weeping for a long time, but it was still just a sentence: "You can endure it for a few days." Zixin can't take care of it for a while, and those subordinates are more subordinate, after all, now, your identity is the same as them...... I know I'm sorry for you and wronged you, but I ...... but they cannot protect you in front of them. If it reaches the ears of my brother and grandfather, you won't be able to ...... alive......"

Wei Yan was impatient to hear it, shook his hand, turned his back to him coldly, and begged no matter how hard he pleaded, but he didn't say a word.

If she is changed to Yuqin, why do you deliberately beg for her? Seeing that she is so thin and haggard, she still needs her to speak, do you know that she is not doing well? Yuqin is for her, and even the emperor and crown prince are willing to offend......

Thinking of this, it is only in vain. In the midst of her disappointments again and again, she ushered in more disappointments.

Why is it so difficult for people to live? Cui and Wei Zhen, who are slaves in the palace, are also living the same life as her?

Thinking of this, she became stubborn and stubbornly refused to let herself languish. Hatred became all her motivation, sustaining her through one embarrassing day after another.

Finally, one day, she found a way to escape...... (To be continued.) )
