After crying bitterly in Daddy's arms, most of the loneliness and depression in the last three years of Ah Yao's previous life disappeared.

After such a fuss, most of the food on the table was already cold. The original golden color of the soup condenses into a pale yellow oil, and the various refreshments are no longer bright when they were first served, or the roasted or steamed skin loses its luster like the skin that has lost its youth.

Seeing this, Song said casually: "The things are not fresh, so let's ask the kitchen people to make some more." ”

After speaking, she turned to the door, and was just about to open her mouth to call for someone to come in and remove the plate, but was stopped by A-Yao.

"Auntie, wait first."

After speaking, Ah Yao picked up the peony brocade chrysanthemum bowl in front of her, which contained the quail soup that Hu Jiuling personally served when she coaxed her daughter. Qingcheng is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and the local dishes taste light, and even the foreign dishes that have been brought have been assimilated, with a little less thick oil red sauce and a little more light and refreshing. Although the bowl of soup in front of her has lost the slightest heat, the soup is still clear and translucent, and it is many times better than the soup she stewed in the small courtyard of the capital.

The fine porcelain spoon scooped up the large half spoon and shouted into the mouth, with a little bitterness of Codonopsis at the beginning of the mouth, and then the lips and teeth were fragrant.

Ah Yao had not drunk such a delicious broth for a long time, and after the death of her father in her previous life, she was immersed in grief, not thinking about tea and dinner, and then avoiding meat and fish during the wake. Later, when the family fell into the middle of the road, she could no longer afford to provide her with the extravagant pleasures she had before. Now that she had drunk it, she scooped a few more spoonfuls without holding back, until the stares next to her were too strong for her to ignore them anymore.

Sitting opposite Ah Yao, Song saw her scoop up the cold soup and drink it spoonful after spoonful, and her heart was no less surprised than seeing her deal with the most favored nurse on weekdays. Is this still her daughter who was pampered by her lord and didn't touch the spring water with her ten fingers? Don't say it's a cold soup, it's a soup that is a little less hot, and A-Yao has never drunk a sip for so many years. It's not that she is squeamish, but that the master wants to give the best in everything. On weekdays, he is careful in his business, but he doesn't care about anything about Ah Yao, and he is completely bold with "the Hu family's wealth is open and blooming, and it can be spent casually".

Ah Yao, who was so pampered, actually drank cold soup, and Song's eyes were about to fall off when she saw this scene.

"Daddy, Auntie, why are you so ......?"

Before the word "surprised" could be spoken, Ah Yao had already understood. Now is not the time when the family lives on pawns three years later, and Daddy and Auntie don't know what kind of human situation she has experienced.

Putting down the soup bowl and brushing her sideburns, she pretended to be relaxed: "Even if my daughter is as beautiful as a flower, Daddy and Auntie are not the first day to see them, why are you so surprised." ”

This kid! After sneering, Song carefully looked at the little face of his daughter opposite. Although their husband and wife are only middle-aged, they can't stand the growth of Ah Yao, the child, and they pick the good-looking places on the two of them, and the small faces that are combined like this are of course exquisite. In addition, she "realized it after her adventure last night", her originally innocent and delicate face was a little more sensible and mature, and her contradictory temperament grew on such a petite person, which made people unable to take their eyes off.

She had to admit that A-Yao's sentence "beautiful as a flower" was not a princess selling melons.

Even so, after years of habit, Song couldn't help but tease a few words: "How can you boast of yourself like this, look at the tail behind you, it's almost up to the sky." ”

Ah Yao really touched behind her and pouted, "Ah Niang is a liar." ”

At this time, even Hu Jiuling couldn't help laughing, brushing his beautiful beard that had not yet been cleaned up, and laughed lowly. How can his little Ayao be so delicate and so cute.

Seeing that the second elder was smiling happily, A-Yao spared no effort to behave well, "Besides, my daughter is not boasting, this nose, mouth and eyes are not all according to Daddy and Auntie." It is precisely because of Daddy's extraordinary martial arts and Auntie's outstanding appearance that he can give birth to such a beautiful daughter. ”

Hu Jiuling laughed even louder, and after glancing at Song, he shook his head and said, "Hui Niang, look, our Ah Yao's little mouth is like smeared with honey, it's really Daddy's pistachio." ”

Listening to the laughter of the two, Ah Yao filled each of them a bowl of soup and handed it to the two of them with both hands.

"Every porridge and rice on this table is earned by Daddy's hard work, and the money earned by getting up early and greedy every day can't be wasted casually, just ask the people to heat it under the stove and eat it again. Besides, the cold soup has a special taste, and Daddy and Auntie also taste it. ”

The beloved daughter scooped the soup with her own hands, not to mention that it was a carefully boiled tonic soup, which was a poison medicine that pierced the intestines, and Hu Jiuling could drink it without blinking an eyelid. The smile on his face still did not dissipate, he tasted it, and threw away his beloved daughter's heart, the soup that had been cold did not taste as good as when it was fresh.

Song Shi also felt the same, looked up and saw the eyes full of anticipation on the other side, she put down the soup bowl and asked gently.

"It's rare for Ah Yao to be so diligent, saying good things and scooping soup, but what do you want?"

Raising his neck and drinking the whole bowl of soup to the sky, Hu Jiuling also looked at his daughter, with some eagerness in his eyes. He has a thin relationship with children all his life, and he only got such an only daughter when he was nearly forty years old, and he can't wait to hold all the good things in the world to her. He likes Ah Yao to look at him when he asks for something, and then say his wish in a soft tone, and after he agrees, he pounces in front of him and happily says "Daddy is the best".

Being looked at like this by the second elder, A-Yao was a little weak-hearted.

"Filial piety comes first, and daughters should be filial to their fathers and mothers. What is the bowl of soup, if you don't dislike it, your daughter will serve it to you every day until you are 100 years old. ”

With these words, Hu Jiuling's whole person seemed to have just absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, and the 36,000 pores on his body were refreshing. Delighted, he directly and boldly promised.

"If A-Yao likes anything, tell Daddy, even the stars in the sky, Daddy will also take them off for you."

"No need for the stars in the sky."

Ah Yao shook her head and said, in her memory, Daddy really picked the stars in the sky for her. When she was young, she was weak, and once she was sick on a rainy day, when she was uncomfortable, she was clamoring to see the stars, but on a rainy day, the black clouds were stacked on top of each other, where did she get the stars. Later, it was Daddy who ordered the craftsman to glue the fine pieces of yellow tourmaline to the dark blue satin, put it around her bed tent, and brought the night pearl in the storeroom. As night fell, the warm light of the night pearl shone through the dark blue satin, and the tent was dotted with stars, like being in a bright galaxy.

It's a pity that the yellow tourmaline and the priceless night pearl of the East China Sea transported by the Nanyang caravan in the previous life, along with all the valuable things of the Shen family, were all sent to Shen Moci through Song Qinwen. Night pearls are set in the corners of the carriage, and yellow tourmaline is embedded in the hem of Shen Moci's gorgeous floor-length skirt.

Before being reborn, Shen Moci also said in a tone that "blood never gets on his hands", looking like he was afraid of being contaminated by filthy things. But under her profligate food and clothing, which point is not stained with the blood of the Hu family. Although she didn't take action directly, she hid behind the scenes, conspired and calculated, and did all the bad things. Is it possible to treat those who have done evil deeds without being discovered by the world as if they have not done them?

However, Shen Moci can pretend that she has not done it, in her previous life, until she died, she was still the gentle and kind imperial merchant Shen family eldest lady in the minds of the people of Great Xia, and she was also the palm cinnabar mole of several princes, including Song Qinwen, and the white moonlight in her heart.

"A-Yao...... Yao'er! ”

Daddy's shout woke her up to her senses, and when she turned her head, she saw Daddy looking at her worriedly.

"What did Ah Yao think about so fascinated, was she caught in a nightmare?"

"Daddy, my daughter is fine."

Without much explanation, she said directly: "My daughter doesn't want stars in the sky, she just wants to enter the school." ”

"Academy?"

Hu Jiuling and Song all exclaimed in surprise, especially the former who reacted the most. has been a favorite girl for thirteen years, and this matter has become Hu Jiuling's instinct. The status of women in Daxia is quite high, and there is also a women's school in the academy in Qingcheng. Many wealthy families in the city sent girls in, but he never thought of sending A-Yao in, and the reason was just one word: tired.

"At the end of the school, I will start reading in the morning, and at noon I will eat a coarse tea and light meal from the stove. Not only that, but there is also a day of work every ten years, the men go to the fields to plough the fields, and the women collect mulberries and raise silkworms, and the work they do is no different from that of rural village women. It's so hard, how can you learn comfortably at home. Is A-Yao dissatisfied with today's female master, if so, Daddy will quit her and find you a more desirable one. ”

While persuading, Hu Jiuling had already calculated the female masters around Qingcheng who were of good character.

Knowing that Daddy wouldn't agree lightly, Ah Yao bit her lip. Of course, she knows that it is more comfortable to study at home, and the female master invited by Daddy is very good at using piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is even more simple to talk about, and she does not have to experience the bumps in the road of cold winter and heat to learn at home, which is much more comfortable than the academy.

The reason why she wanted to go to the academy was because of Shen Moci in the final analysis. In his previous life, when Shen Moci was studying in the academy, he happened to meet the great Confucian Mo Daoxuan who came to the academy to travel. Mo Da Ru peach and plum are all over the world, and even opened in the palace for several princes who were still princes that day. Shen Moci worshiped under his name, and by the way, he became the little sister of several princes.

It is precisely because of this relationship that the status of the Shen family has risen. In her previous life, when her father was suddenly attacked by mountain bandits and died, and the Hu family's treasury was stolen and drained for no reason, she did not suspect the Shen family. But at that time, the government came forward and tried its best to eliminate the suspicion of the Shen family, and even Song Qinwen, who "stepped forward" at the critical moment, persuaded him beside him, saying something "Although the Shen family is not as good as the Hu family, it is not a family that lacks money, why do you do anything to rob the house and rob the house, and if you are caught, you will be imprisoned!" ”

With so many people coming forward to testify, and no definite evidence in her hands, the matter had to be closed. Subsequently, when the Hu family sold the shop and land to settle the accounts, the Shen family, who had strong financial resources, bought the bulk of it. On the day of the change of the deed, Shen Moci personally came forward and gave her father and mother a spiritual appearance in front of everyone, and comforted her softly. Song Qinwen, who was standing next to her at that time, thanked Miss Shen for her kindness and righteousness, and the price she gave was fair. After the people who witnessed this went back, they spread the word that everyone said that the girl of the Shen family was gentle and kind, and Shen Moci became famous.

At that time, she didn't know about popular things, and she didn't know the value of those shops, so naturally Song Qinwen said that she felt fair. But in retrospect, I'm afraid that before that, the two had already hooked up in one place. And the reason why they were able to take away the property of the Hu family so smoothly was, in the final analysis, supported by the government.

Why did the government support the Shen family? It's not because of the princes behind Shen Moci!

The Hu family has always been kind to people, and she has been raised in the boudoir for thirteen years in her previous life, and she has no chance to provoke Shen Moci when she asks herself, but she has caused her family to die. In the last three years before her rebirth, she saw with her own eyes that the Hu family's business was devoured step by step, and now she knows better than anyone else: no matter what the reason, she and Shen Moci are incompatible. Even if she didn't take the initiative to provoke, Shen Moci would be bullied like in her previous life.

Instead of sitting back and waiting, it is better to fight back.

In my memory, Mo Daru was going to travel to the academy in early March, but now it was late February, and there was not much time left for her. If Shen Moci is asked to successfully apprentice again, with a few princes as backers, it means that she has memories of her previous life, and it is difficult for the Hu family to cope with the absolute power, so she must go to the academy.
