Aunt Zhou watched her former companions leave one by one, and then said to the maid, asking to see Yanran. When Yanran heard Aunt Zhou ask to see her, she knew that she must have come for that incident, so she asked Aunt Zhou to come.

"I just want to ask, after leaving the Rong family, does it have nothing to do with the Rong family?" Aunt Zhou's question was not as Yan Ran expected, Yan Ran nodded: "This is natural, after leaving the Rong family, my aunt is no longer my uncle's surviving person, but can be her own master!" ”

Aunt Zhou closed her eyes, there was a smile on the corner of her lips, she was no longer a surviving person, she could be her own master, it was good, I had been looking forward to it for almost 20 years, and I finally looked forward to this sentence.

"Auntie, is there anything else you want to ask?" Yanran's words woke Aunt Zhou up from her dream, and Aunt Zhou opened her eyes: "There is nothing else, I think, it's time for me to leave." The third grandmother is kind-hearted, and I hope that the third grandmother and the third grandfather will love each other and live a long life! ”

"Thank you!" Although such words are clichés, Yanran still expressed her gratitude. Aunt Zhou got up, said goodbye to Yan Ran, and then stood up, from then on, leaving the Rong family, she was no longer the concubine of the Rong family, and she was no longer sold by others, but she was able to call the shots.

"If my aunt gets married, please give me an extra hundred taels of silver!" Yanran's words made Aunt Zhou's eyes widen: "Why so? Everyone else is a hundred taels too! ”

"No why, it's just a personal respect!" Private? Aunt Zhou smiled lightly, and then said, "You sent someone to inquire about him, and then spread it to my ears?" ”

Yanran didn't answer, but Aunt Zhou knew that it must be so, and the tears in her eyes fell: "I thought, I thought that I would never hear from him in this life, and I wouldn't be able to see his face!" ”

"Aunt Hugh wants to be like this, people's hearts are unpredictable, although you have known each other since childhood, but it has been more than ten years!" Yanran's reminder was very kind, which made Aunt Zhou nod: "I know, thank you to the third grandmother." Thank you anyway! ”

Saying that, Aunt Zhou knelt down and kowtowed to Yanran, and Yanran got up and only deserved a half-salute. After Aunt Zhou got up, she didn't say a word anymore and turned to leave. Looking at her brisk steps, Yanran couldn't help but think. Men want the woman they have, and they only have him in their hearts, but in this world, many things are very fair, and you can pay back as much as you give. I hope that Aunt Zhou will go this time, get what she wants, and be very safe.

Aunt Zhou left, and Aunt Zhao's small building in the garden had also been built, and she brought two maids to move in. Since then, Master Rong's once legendary backyard, which is noisy and beautiful, is truly quiet.

Although Master Rong told him before he died, Fourth Master Rong did not go to catch the exam, but stayed in Yangzhou. Rong Qi knew that poor study was an excuse, and it was true that Rong Siye was worried about what was going on on Rong Erye's side. Therefore, Rong Qi did not object to Rong Siye's move.

After sending off Second Brother Zheng, the Rong family's spice shop also opened in peace, although because of Master Rong's filial piety, there was no fanfare. But it still attracts a lot of customers. Miss Chu also came to cheer and spent a hundred taels of silver to buy a piece of fine ambergris.

Seeing the excitement of the first day, Rong Qi's heart finally let go, and when he came back to talk to Yanran about business, he sighed: "If it weren't for Miss Chu, I'd be really worried!" ”

"Oh, then you are regretting now that you didn't agree to marry Miss Chu's sister as a concubine?" As her pregnancy deepened, she became more and more sleepy. Besides, Rong Yuzhi gradually got started with family affairs, Yanran only needed to eat and sleep, and just sleep and eat. At this moment, her husband said, and she only opened one eye lazily.

"You really haven't forgotten about it!" Rong Qi clasped his wife's hand tighter and said, "How many times do you have to swear before you believe it?" Moreover, the second girl of Chu has already found a husband, she is a guest from Zhejiang, and if she doesn't bring it back, she will be in Yangzhou. ”

"That's to be two-ended? Miss Chu is also willing? Yanran listened a little interested, turned over and lay on her husband's lap.

"The Chu family's background is always like this, besides, I have seen that guest, and it is also considered elegant, and the second girl of Chu also nodded. Otherwise, Miss Chu is really reluctant. "The two big names are good, if you really talk about it, it's just a concubine, and you still can't see the original concubine. However, in the merchant's house, this kind of thing is common, and when he has children, he has children by his side. The family business here is naturally enjoyed by the children of the second girl of Chu, and it will not be earned over there, but for the Chu family, it can be regarded as a good family business.

"Then wait until the day of marriage, you have to tell me, I will let someone send a generous gift!" Yanran leaned there and began to yawn again. Rong Qi couldn't help but smile and moved his wife's head back to the pillow: "I know, third grandma, you old man, just sleep!" ”

After saying this, Rong Qi wanted to wait for his wife's refutation, but he didn't wait, and looked down to see that his wife was already asleep. Rong Qi couldn't help but smile again, it was better to take a nap by herself, she was really tired these days.

The flowers in the garden can no longer wait for the people who enjoy the flowers, and in the blink of an eye, the flowers are colorful, and on March 19, the Qin family gave birth to a daughter. The arrival of this child made the Qin couple very happy, and Rong Siye no longer stayed in the study all day, but went back to the room to see his daughter after a while.

The harmonious life of his brother and sister-in-law made Rong Yuzhi can't help but feel envious. However, at this time, Rong Yuzhi is no longer the girl who is full of wind and snow. She already knew how much money she was spending a year and where she was spending money. How much money is earned in a year, and how much is save. These things that were once disliked by Rong Yuzhi as extremely cheesy, and at this time Rong Yuzhi is simply enjoying it.

When he heard the news that Miss Lin was coming, Rong Yuzhi raised his head from the account book, since Miss Lin broke it that day, the Lin Mansion was silent. No one has ever come, Rong Yuzhi knew that this was inevitable, and always thought that there would be no more news until Lord Lin was about to leave office, but he didn't expect that there would be news again in only three months, and it was Miss Lin who came in person.

"Miss, do you want to ask Miss Lin to go back?" Seeing that Rong Yuzhi's expression was uncertain, the maid asked softly beside her.

Rong Yuzhi shook his head: "Please Miss Lin, no, you and I will welcome you out!" "Of course, the daughter of the transfer envoy must be welcomed out in person.

Miss Lin waited at the second gate, because the Rong family had filial piety, she was not dressed brightly. This made Rong Yuzhi's heart warm, but he still stepped forward according to the courtesy: "Miss Lin hasn't seen me for a long time, please go inside!" ”

Miss Lin didn't speak, just looked at Rong Yuzhi and carefully touched the similarities between her and Mrs. Lin. Those eyes, how can you ignore those eyes? This is obviously the same eye as himself, and his mother.

Miss Lin's actions made Rong Yuzhi a little confused, but Rong Yuzhi still repeated it softly.

"Cousin, why do you need to be so polite, you and I ......" Miss Lin wanted to say a few kind words, but she couldn't say the words when they came to her mouth, so she simply didn't say them. Rong Yuzhi only smiled lightly, and asked Miss Lin to go inside.

In the past, the Rong family was always full of people coming and going, and it was very lively, but at this moment, because of the filial piety period, a lot of people were dismissed, but it seemed a little lonely. Along the way, I didn't meet a single subordinate. Miss Lin couldn't help but say: "Father has heard that the Rong family dismissed the concubine, and said that Master Rong was really kind, and said that ......"

Saying that, Miss Lin closed her mouth again, what kind of kindness, Daddy is clearly lying, but who is right and who is wrong? Could it be as my mother said, it's all fate, and I can't resist it? Rong Yuzhi was waiting for Miss Lin to speak, but Miss Lin didn't speak, and Rong Yuzhi's eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly: "Those concubines are still young, and it is enough to have one or two festivals, if there are too many, it is just a matter of not accumulating virtue!" ”

Miss Lin snorted, the two of them had already walked to the hall, and Rong Yuzhi brought tea to Miss Lin: "This is the new tea in my shop, you can taste it, it's not bad compared to Longjing!" Miss Lin took a sip and put it down: "Please also ask the servants to leave!" ”

Rong Yuzhi signaled, and all the subordinates in the house retreated, leaving only the two of them. Rong Yuzhi sat down under Miss Lin at this time: "If you have anything to say, you can say it!" ”

"Why are you so calm, you know ......" Miss Lin hurriedly said that she felt that something was wrong, and lowered her voice and said: "You obviously know that you and I are half-sisters!" ”

"That's because the time I cried has passed. It's hard for you to sleep comfortably these days, right? I see you've lost a lot of weight! Rong Yuzhi's words made Miss Lin smile bitterly: "Your cognition since childhood has been overturned, and my mother, who I was once proud of, has suffered so badly. But I can't hate her, I can't blame her. Because all of this she did, in fact, was not wrong. ”

"Why do you hate her and blame her?" Rong Yuzhi's rhetorical question made Miss Lin's eyes widen: "Why can't I hate her and blame her, her reputation ......?"

However, her reputation was not destroyed by her own willingness, it was she who met with such a thing. And she also said that sometimes, death can't solve everything, and even makes people frame their innocence. In that case, why die? Besides, if she had died when she was in the Qinglou that day, it wouldn't have been you! ”

"But why didn't she stay at the Rong family and want to escape?" This is a question that Miss Lin has been thinking about for a long time.

"The Jing family will not let a daughter be a concubine, if the mother really stays in the Rong family all the time, and then declares her identity, the Jing family will not recognize it!" Rong Yuzhi's words punctured the last trace of Miss Lin's illusion. Yes, the Jing family will not let a daughter be a concubine, and when the Rong family comes to admit it, the Jing family will only treat the crime of impostor, and the so-called from the beginning to the end will become a joke. A tear slipped from the corner of Miss Lin's eyes: "My mother said the same thing, I thought you would be different!" ”

"That's because I've been through something like that!" If the elopement was really successful that day, the Rong family would not admit it, and would only bite it to death and say that the one who eloped was the maid, not Miss Rong!

The author has something to say: everyone's girlfriends have become concubines for various reasons, which is not a good thing for this family. Especially this kind of concubine, if you want to admit it, you will also quietly recognize it, and then leave this house, and you will never let people come to the door with great fanfare and say, a certain lady in your family is a concubine in my family.
