Chapter I

Calling the country to be in the year of Shen, it is late autumn. The maple trees on the hill behind the capital were red, like a burning flame, staining the sky red. At this time, literati and artists would come from all over the world to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and the literati of the capital would hold various poetry meetings with the friendship of landlords. Therefore, the streets and alleys of the city are lively.

In the bustling street market, twelve-year-old Chu Muhui was already slim, holding a folding fan painted with maple leaves, and wearing a azure robe with a turquoise inlaid belt. Although she was a little thin in men's clothes, she did not lose her demeanor, and the women stopped to watch wherever she walked.

Chu Muhui glanced at them and said loudly, "What are you looking at?" Haven't seen a beautiful man? ”

A woman hid her face and smiled and secretly said to the sisters next to her: "It's not that I haven't seen a beautiful man, but I haven't seen a man with a flower on his face!" This sentence penetrated Chu Muhui's ears word for word. The woman disappeared into the crowd. She originally wanted to lose her temper and swallowed back what she was about to say.

She had thought about it when she came out, and the red cherry blossom birthmark on her face was as big as a red date, and it was very obvious at the corner of her left eye. Now wearing men's clothes, all the hair is tied up, and it is even more obvious. And he is still wearing men's clothes, which will definitely attract people's attention.

She breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the sky. The original delicate facial features were coated with a halo by the sun, and this birthmark has followed her since she was a child, and many people thought that she deliberately painted it on her face.

She also knew that she was lucky, this birthmark turned out to be the shape of a cherry blossom and slowly darkened from the inside out, it looked just like the painting, if she was unlucky, this red birthmark was a scorpion centipede or something like that, it would scare passers-by to death.

Hearing the bustling sound in front of her, she looked up at the many people gathered in front of her, and she glanced at it without hesitation. She suddenly felt familiar with the young man, as if she had known him before. He looked well-dressed, his eyes were very clear, and he stood there with a serious expression. In front of him were written four words: "Sell yourself to bury your father." Chu Muhui saw that there seemed to be a person lying on the straw mat next to him.

She was a little curious, and she didn't know why she felt so familiar when she saw him.

Chu Muhui raised her eyebrows slightly, this young man is not dedicated at all, if he pretends to be pitiful, he will at least make himself miserable and basically sell himself to bury his father, isn't it all kneeling? He raised his head and looked at the majestic man, is it difficult to buy it back and be a young master? A man in gold and silver in the crowd pointed his index finger at the young man and said, "You kid kneel down and shout master, when you are happy, you will buy it back and just lack a fire?" ”

Chu Muhui saw that he still had a gold ring on his finger, a silk robe with a big belly, and a smell of wine when he spoke, she could still smell this disgusting smell when she stepped back. Helplessly, she went around to the other side.

This time she could see very clearly that the boy looked about her own age. Meiqingmuxiu seems to be a scholar, she thinks this scholar is very funny, and he has fallen to this point and still has a straight back and a clean and tidy cotton robe. The light gray cloth ties the hair and looks neat.

"Contemptible people have always knelt to their parents, why should they kneel to you? I don't sell it to you, you go."

His voice sounded very decisive and refreshing, Chu Muhui looked at him with a little interest, she had never seen such a timid and fat young man in this capital.

The pot-bellied man's face changed and changed, and he walked over and grabbed his collar and said loudly to his face: "I see that you have eaten the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and you dare to talk to me like this; Someone call me! ”

Chu Muhui was stunned, the young man was so thin and small, he actually grabbed the fat man's collar with his backhand and threw him out. The chubby body fell into the mud of a dog. He got up from the ground and pointed at the young man with a curse. The six house slaves next to him all raised their fists and froze there, not daring to move forward.

"You guys give it to me! If you don't give him some color, he doesn't know what the uncle's surname is! Clean up this stinky boy for me! ”

The six house slaves cowered and were about to move forward. The boy raised his leg and kicked several people, all of whom fell to the ground.

"Good boy, you wait for me!" After saying that, the house slaves immediately got up and fled in a hurry with their master.

Chu Muhui looked very relieved, took out a wallet embroidered with lotus flowers from her waist, took out five taels of silver, handed it to him and said, "That person is a relative of the county order family in our jurisdiction, you hurry up and leave quickly and bury the person." ”

The young boy immediately said: "Five taels of silver is not a small number, don't worry, girl, I am already your person, and I will go to you when I finish my errands." ”

"You're still you, and it has nothing to do with me. I just passed by to watch a show, and the money was a reward. After saying that, she left without looking back. She couldn't understand why the man could recognize her as a girl at a glance, and the men's clothes she was wearing didn't seem to be useful at all. Could it be that the cherry blossom birthmark on her face made her reveal her gender so easily, she felt bored, bought a few hairpins and went back to Chu Yuan.

As soon as she entered the door and saw the man in the courtyard, her heart was entangled, this person has always been ghostly, and she wants to go back to Nanrong Mansion with them, and she is really persistent. When he walked past him, he threw down a sentence: "You go, I don't know you, I won't go back with you." ”

The yellow chrysanthemums in the courtyard are blooming, and there is a faint fragrance of flowers in the air. The business has just started to improve, and now everything she has is earned by her own hands, and she doesn't have to look at people's faces to be angry with the eldest lady. Life is comfortable, why go to the deep house compound to find bad luck.

Chu Muhui smiled. She has been alone for more than ten years, why would a man suddenly say that he was her father? This man has been here no less than five times. I heard that he is also the head of the Internal Affairs Office, called Nan Rongmu.

"Please go back, the head of the dignified Internal Affairs Office, my small temple can't afford your big Buddha, please come back!"

"Oooo Oooo ”

The sudden knock on the door annoyed her a little. Before she could open the door, she saw Liu Dandan, her slender hand dragging her skirt and running out of the house and said, "I'm here to open the door, I must be here to deliver the materials." ”

As soon as they opened it, the man ran over to Chu Muhui and said, "Master, you can make it easy for me to find it." I'm done, do you think you have any other orders? ”

Liu Dandan looked at the guy in front of him, dressed in clean clothes, and was also respectful to Mu Hui? Could it be that this is the new guy? Looking at the big man next to her, with a blue face, she didn't say a word, and pulled the young man and walked into the house.

"Just come with me."

"This girl, men and women don't kiss, why are you pulling me in the blue sky and daylight? ......" Seeing that they all entered the house, Chu Muhui sighed, turned around and went back to the house.
