Chapter 189: Pure will add to the chaos
Qingluo instinctively cried and struggled, but found that the person holding her was actually her father.
With the mind of an eight-year-old girl, she only felt that her father came down from the sky to save her, and she didn't think about why he was born at this time.
Lin Xiucai quickly glanced at the mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law stood still and did not step forward.
Lin Xiucai began to cry, shook Qingluo's thin shoulders, and shouted: "Qingluo, your mother is so ruthless, she actually sold you for a few silver!" ”
Due to Fang Cai's fright, Qingluo's little face was already pale.
Hearing this, she was stunned for a moment, and her tears could no longer be stopped, and she burst out of her eyes.
Lin Xiucai also wept, hugged Qingluo tightly, and yelled at the woman behind her: "You say, how much silver is that crazy woman going to go!" Even if I die poor, I won't sell my daughter! ”
The mother-in-law raised her chin, crossed her waist and said, "I just bought it for ten taels, and now if I want to buy it, I have to get twenty taels!" ”
Lin Xiucai was still aggressive, as soon as he heard the number of twenty taels, his face suddenly looked like a frosted eggplant, he reached out and touched the cuffs, and only took out three taels of silver.
"I beg you to let me take my daughter back, I'll give you three taels first, and when I go back and make up enough money, I'll give you all the money!" Lin Xiucai begged.
The mother-in-law refused, and stepped forward to drag the green radish away.
Lin Xiucai hugged her tightly and didn't let go.
The mother-in-law was angry, waved the deed of sale in her hand and said: "Your daughter has been sold to me, if you don't let go, I will go to report to the official!" ”
Lin Xiucai's eyes blinked, and his voice softened: "Then you let me have a few more words with her......
The mother-in-law was a little impatient: "Hurry up, I'm still waiting inside!" ”
Lin Xiucai smiled and nodded. It was flattering, as if a wagging dog tail could grow from the back of the ass in the next moment.
The mother-in-law should go down. Lin Xiucai pulled Qingluo aside. Squatted down and coaxed softly: "Qingluo, don't be afraid, when Daddy goes back and has collected enough money, he will come to pick you up." ”
Qingluo cried vigorously and asked, "Daddy, why did my mother sell me?" ”
Lin Xiucai immediately scolded indignantly: "That stinky woman loves money like her life, and she doesn't even want her daughter!" She said a long time ago that she would sell you for silver, and I have quarreled with her several times about this, but I didn't think she could be so ruthless! ”
The last glimmer of hope in Qingluo's heart was shattered. She didn't even have the strength to cry.
Lin Xiucai suddenly put away his anger again, and grinned at Qingluo: "Qingluo, you are obedient, you must be obedient when you enter the Zhao family." If you don't behave, the Zhao family will come to trouble your father and mother. When Daddy has collected enough money, he will come to pick you up, and Daddy will go back to persuade her to let her come to see you often. ”
"I don't want her to come see me!" Her voice was hoarse, but her gaze was resolute.
In this way, she was brought into the Zhao family and became the little daughter-in-law of the young master of the Zhao family by mistake.
At first, she was still thinking about whether one day her father would be able to scrape together enough money to take her back, but then she gradually realized that it was not what she thought.
Everyone in the Zhao family said that she was a lucky star. As soon as she came, the young master of the Zhao family's madness and stupidity were much better.
That's when she understood. Even if Daddy had more money, he couldn't redeem her.
Later, she didn't have any extravagant hopes for herself.
Although she said such resolute words at the time, there has not been a day in the past five years that she has not been looking forward to her mother coming to see her.
But day after day, year after year, my mother never came.
She thought, if her mother can be so ruthless, then she should not have that mother.
But she didn't expect that selling her daughter was not the most ruthless mother, but even more ruthless was that when her father was paralyzed in bed, her mother actually sold all the land, rolled up the silver and walked away!
Even later, my father unfortunately died, and I didn't see my mother come back to the grave to pay respects......
Qingluo hated her mother in her heart, but Rao already hated her like this, and when she watched her mother come to the door, she still couldn't help but let the maid take the silver.
She should have hated her. The maid is right, why bother to be sad for that ruthless person?
I was tired of crying, so I was silent, and I didn't even go to the main hall for dinner.
Half-lying on the six-pillar carved black nanmu bed, his eyes stared vainly at the blue glazed lamp on the black lacquered wood base.
At some point, a shadow came over and obscured the light of the lamp, and a gentle voice came from overhead: "Don't keep staring at that, beware of uncomfortable eyes." ”
Qingluo squinted, didn't look at the man in front of her, only turned sideways slightly and turned inside, without speaking.
"What's wrong?" He sat down on the edge of the bed and pulled the brocade quilt embroidered with large peony flowers to cover her.
"It's okay......" Qingluo replied in a low voice, trying not to let him hear the crying.
But he was still nervous, patted her on the back, and asked, "Did they say those embarrassing things to you again?" ”
The man is Zhao Boxuan, the young master of the Zhao family, and the "they" in his mouth refers to the sister-in-law and sister-in-law who are in charge of the Zhao family's business, as well as ...... That Aunt Zhou.
"Bo Xuan, you don't have to worry about me like this......" she finished speaking, and then turned back slightly.
Zhao Boxuan looked at her gently, stretched out his hand and gently brushed away her tear-soaked hair: "I don't care about you, who else do I care?" ”
Qingluo snorted twice and couldn't help crying.
Zhao Boxuan reached out and hugged her into his arms, and didn't say anything anymore, just let her cry.
The Zhao family thought that Qingluo took good care of Zhao Boxuan, but only Qingluo knew that in fact, Zhao Boxuan had been taking care of her.
After crying, he coaxed her to eat.
"I know that my body is weak, but I still go to be angry." He held a small cup of lotus petals and jade, scooped up a spoonful of blood swallow stewed pear soup and fed it to her.
Qingluo took two bites, then shook her head and said that she couldn't eat it.
Zhao Boxuan didn't force it, and put the small cup on the pestle on the side and ordered the maids to withdraw.
"I heard that you let the maid go out again today." Zhao Boxuan said softly while cleaning his hands in a small basin.
Qingluo smiled bitterly: "Yes, I just went out, and I heard someone scolding the Zhao family......"
Zhao Boxuan's body stiffened slightly, and then he smiled softly: "If you don't scold one day, you will come to the door." ”
Qingluo was a little unwilling. He sat up straight and said, "Bo Xuan." Are you really going to let them go on like this? Fortunately, the old man can't live out. Otherwise, after listening to those words, I will definitely be angry. ”
Zhao Boxuan took the towel on the side and wiped his hands, his eyes flickering.
How could he not know that the Zhao family's bad reputation was caused by his sister-in-law and sister-in-law?
My sister-in-law was originally a scholar, but she couldn't learn at home, and she repeatedly failed, so she had to turn back and come to a private school to mix with a teacher.
At that time, Aunt Zhou saw that the young master was crazy and stupid, so she shouted that she wanted to ask her sister to be educated by a gentleman, so that she could completely compare with that stupid brother. Somehow I invited that person, and in the end, it turned out to be a concubine.
But the sister-in-law's family was really down, so Master Zhao and Aunt Zhou took the initiative to recruit him into the Zhao family. My sister-in-law also responded.
The Zhao family, who is in business, is not like an official family, and does not attach great importance to the family, and the sister-in-law can recruit a scholar as a son-in-law, which also makes Aunt Zhou proud.
Unexpectedly, this son-in-law is still ambitious, can read and write, and has a lot of means to do business, so Aunt Zhou has been vigorously advocating in the ears of Master Zhao. finally asked Master Zhao to agree to hand over the Zhao family's family business to his son-in-law to take care of it for the time being.
In Aunt Zhou's eyes, Zhao Boxuan is a wasted person, and he can't be stupid when he is crazy. Just wait for Old Man Zhao to let go, this Zhao family is all theirs!
But they didn't know that in fact, Zhao Boxuan saw this qiē in his eyes.
"Don't worry, Dad won't know this, we won't say it, Aunt Zhou is even more secretive." Zhao Boxuan turned around, with an imperceptible smile hidden at the corner of his mouth.
Qingluo sighed: "You have a wide heart." Aunt Zhou and sister-in-law are not fuel-efficient lamps, but I am afraid that we will have a hard time in the future. I don't care, no matter how hard I was in my childhood, I'm afraid that you will ...... then."
Zhao Boxuan took off his coat, sat on the edge of the bed to take Qingluo's hand, stared at her, and asked with a smile: "I'm afraid that I won't be used to it when the time comes, and I will shout in your ear all day long?" ”
Qingluo was blushing when he saw it, and lowered her head and said, "You eldest young master, you can't carry your shoulders or lift your hands, and I'm afraid that you can only shout with your mouth when the time comes." ”
Zhao Boxuan couldn't help but smile when he heard this, suddenly hugged Qingluo, leaned down and pecked her cheek.
"Then if one day I really become a poor young master with nothing, are you still willing to follow me?"
Qingluo was still blushing, but when she heard this, her eyes suddenly sank, pushed him away, and said angrily: "What are you talking about?" ”
She is not afraid of living a hard life, but she is afraid of being abandoned.
Zhao Boxuan looked at her angry face and smiled again.
Qingluo couldn't laugh, pursed her lips and lowered her head.
Zhao Boxuan sighed a little abruptly, held her hand tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Qingluo, believe me, there will never be a ...... that day"
At this moment, the maid outside the door knocked lightly on the door and asked, "Young master, young grandmother, have you rested?" ”
Zhao Boxuan stood up and asked towards the door, "But is there something?" ”
The maid was silent, and an old mother's voice sounded.
"Young master, it's an old slave, and the old slave has something to say to the young grandmother."
Zhao Boxuan glanced back at Qingluo, Qingluo pondered for a moment, and said, "I can find it so late, it must be urgent, let her in." ”
Zhao Boxuan nodded, got up and took the coat he had just taken off and put it on, before letting the maid open the door.
It was the Zhao family's housekeeper mother who came in.
Xu is shadow of being sold at the beginning could not be dissipated, Qingluo's impression of the housekeeper's mother was never very good, and when she saw her coming in, she immediately turned her face sideways.
The housekeeper's mother also knew that the young grandmother didn't treat her very well, so she leaned over and saluted tremblingly, and turned to look at Zhao Boxuan.
Zhao Boxuan noticed the strange expression of the housekeeper's mother, and said with a smile: "What, is there anything else that is inconvenient for me to know?" ”
The housekeeper's mother hurriedly said, "How dare you? Young master, don't torture the old slave! ”
"In that case, let's talk quickly, the body is not good, and you must rest early." In front of an outsider like the housekeeper's mother, Zhao Boxuan called Qingluo as Zhenzhen.
The housekeeper's mother also heard the impatience in Zhao Boxuan's words, and was afraid that the young master would get sick and beat people if she didn't agree with him, so she simply knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "Young master, the old slave has been in the Zhao family for more than ten years, and he has always been loyal, even if he has done some foolish things, it is all for the master, before for the old man and wife, and now for the young master and young grandmother!" ”
Zhao Boxuan's eyebrows twisted slightly, why did the housekeeper's mother say these words for no reason?
He couldn't help but look back at Qingluo again.
Qingluo is also confused.
The housekeeper's mother glanced up at Qingluo, and continued: "The old slave knows that the young grandmother resents the old slave in her heart, because it was the old slave who took over the purchase of the young grandmother for his wife, but the old slave was also ...... at that time."
"Alright, don't talk about that! Is it such a small-bellied person? Zhao Boxuan interrupted her unhappily.
After listening to it, I realized that I wanted to talk about this, Qingluo was already sad about this matter, and this old woman would make a mess!
The housekeeper's mother was taken aback by Zhao Boxuan, trembled slightly, lowered her voice and said, "The old slave didn't mean that, the old slave came today...... I want to show something to my young grandmother......"
As she spoke, she reached into her arms and pulled out an old piece of paper.
Zhao Boxuan's eyebrows twisted, and he was about to open his mouth to ask the housekeeper's mother to retreat, but he heard Qingluo behind him suddenly say: "What is it, show it to me." ”
As soon as Qingluo saw the familiar old notepaper, her heart couldn't help but palpitate, and when the housekeeper's mother presented it and opened it, she saw that it was really the Raushzi who disgusted her.
Her deed of sale back then. (To be continued......)
