Chapter XVII: Persuasion
Liu Yingxue heard the conversation in the window, her body stiffened slightly, she didn't expect it to be like this, she was disliked, and she was an old lady who looked amiable.
used to be good to her, probably for the sake of the Liu family's face, but now that the Liu family is in ruins, her relatives have become a drag on the Gao family, it seems that the hardships experienced on the road are just the beginning, and how to stay in the Gao family is the thing to be considered later.
The corners of her mouth rose, revealing a self-deprecating smile, after all, she was helpless, she was nothing without a family, except for Gao Mingxuan, the rest of these people regarded her as a trouble.
Liu Yingxue lowered her head and returned silently, the snow seemed to be bigger, the white snowflakes fell on her green silk and shoulders, coupled with her snow-white coat, it looked almost integrated with the snow from a distance, and the petite back looked very lonely.
Gao Mingxuan came out of his grandmother's room and saw her back at a glance, he was inexplicably a little sad, and he couldn't help but call her: "Xiaoxue." ”
She slowly turned her head, glanced at Gao Mingxuan sadly, pursed her lips and showed a slight smile, but the smile couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes.
"Cousin, I'm causing you trouble, if it's inconvenient, let me leave." She said this in a hesitant manner, looking very depressed.
Gao Mingxuan chuckled in his heart, guessing that she might have heard the conversation just now, so he made such a move, he clasped her shoulders and said worriedly; "It's still in turmoil outside, it's not feasible for you to go out alone, in case you encounter those terrible things again, no one will save you, at least stay with me, I can protect you."
How humble human life is in troubled times, she has completely realized that if she leaves the ancestral house of the Gao family like this, she may lose her life, maybe Nangong Jin will find her and make her a slave again, anything can happen.
She was stunned and fell into deep thought, she blinked her eyes, lowered her head and sighed deeply: "I have nowhere to go, there were originally a few Zhuangzi in the Guogong Mansion, and now I don't know what the situation is there, and it is difficult to reach it with my own strength." ”
The reality is always so cruel, she can't be left to her way, so she has to bear everything silently.
Gao Mingxuan took her to the cloister to avoid the snow, patted the snow on her body gently, and said pityingly: "Xiaoxue is obedient, just stay by my side, grandmother, don't worry, I will persuade you, as for the others who have no right to drive you away, I am the grandson of the Hou Mansion, they can't speak." ”
Until this moment, Liu Yingxue's heart was a little stable, Gao Mingxuan's only sister-in-law in the Hou Mansion, and the other two cousins are all descendants of the concubine, and they have no blood relationship with Mrs. Gao, and they have the name of a grandmother on the surface, so he has a lot of weight in the mansion, but unfortunately there is no hereditary marquis, and something happened in Kyoto.
"Cousin, I'm not leaving." She smiled relaxedly, as if the words she had overheard had vanished.
Soon, the wing room where Liu Yingxue lived was cleaned up, and he also sent a well-behaved maid to her, which was considered to be temporarily settled.
"Xiaoxue, come to me directly if you have anything." Gao Mingxuan stroked her head, and then instructed the maid, "Xiaocui, take good care of Miss Biao, if anyone dares to bully her, tell me immediately." ”
