"The kids are asleep." A middle-aged woman lowered the tattered curtains, there was not a single bright candle in the whole room, it was pitch black, and the faint moonlight seeping in from the window and door could see the woman's trance, pale and painful face. A simple house, with yellowed walls, covered with dust.
"Ahh
"Husband," the woman's voice suddenly choked and sobbed, "Shall we think of another way?" I... I can't bear my daughter..."After the woman finished speaking, she quickly covered her mouth and nose, trying her best to keep her crying quiet, for fear of disturbing the sleeping children in the house.
The clear glow of the moonlight sprinkled on the man's vicissitudes of life, and tears were rolling in his eyes, and his twitching muscles revealed his complicated state of mind, and he smiled bitterly, "The reputation of the Lu Mansion is quite good in the city, as long as the daughter can be disciplined, it must be regarded as a good end..."The man also choked up, looking at the night sky, "Blame me!" It's all useless to blame me, and now that's the only way I can think of. Winter is coming, the family has no savings, how to fight this proud winter? If these two sons don't have winter clothes, I'm afraid..."
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Okay, okay, if Lu Mansion can really accept her daughter, it will also be her blessing, although the life of the slave and maid is a little harder, but it will not freeze to death or starve to death. Who called... Who told her to be born into this inferior class......" The man's eyes darkened, and he vomited out his inner thoughts in pain.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Inside the house, the girl was reclining on the bed, her two younger brothers were asleep, there was no light in the dark house, her eyes were closed, and the sound of her calm breathing told her mother that she was asleep, but there were droplets of water on her white cheeks in the moonlight... Glide silently. ā¦
Sign the contract and press the handprint. Tang Er took a money bag from Wan Ruoling's hand, although it only had a few taels of silver, it felt as heavy as a thousand catties.
The girl followed Wan Ruoling and sent Tang Er out of the front door, she no longer whimpered, she realized the cruelty of society and life, this is her fate.
Tang Er glanced at her, turned his head, the expression on his face was indescribably painful, and said with a wry smile: "Daughter, don't blame your father for being ruthless, you have to do this for your younger brother and father, maybe you can live a better and more exciting life in Lu Mansion than in the village." It's no wonder that this ruthless and chaotic world, this world is the law of the jungle, and the more powerful and powerful the wealth, the more respected people will be. If you wonder... Blame yourself, you can't be born in a big family like Lu Fu! With that, he let out a long sigh and disappeared around the corner of the hallway.
The girl bit her lip, so uncomfortable... It's really uncomfortable, but she can only accept it... Isn't it? For my brother, for my mother. She doesn't blame anyone, and she doesn't blame anyone.
The beauty of late autumn is incomparable, but the fluttering leaves add a touch of desolation.
Some people and some things are already doomed in the dark, you can't stop it from happening, and you can't change its ending, so why torture yourself? After crying and pain, don't you have to go on with your life?
The girl followed Wan Ruoling for a walk in the back garden, the autumn breeze caressing her soft hair, dancing with grace. She understands this truth, she lives in the lowest strata of poverty, and the path that fate has arranged for her is like this, and despite all her reluctance, doesn't she have to adapt to it? Because only when you adapt to life, you will understand life, and if you understand life, you will enjoy life.
Wan Ruoling finished arranging the internal affairs hall, and she suddenly remembered that there was a good thing to give to Ziqiu, so she had to go to Dongyuan Residence.
Besides, this little girl, because she had just arrived in Lu Mansion, Wan Ruoling was worried that she would get lost in this backyard, or maybe she would get into trouble by mistake.
Of course, this was just what she said when she explained to the little girl, Wan Ruoling was thinking in her heart that she wanted to keep this little girl by her side, and it was not difficult for her to be the head of the servant of the Lu Mansion.
On the way to Dongyuan Residence, Wan Ruoling briefly told her about the rules of the backyard of the Lu Mansion, and the etiquette she should do when she met the second young master.
"Second Young Master?" The girl was startled, and hurriedly grabbed Wan Ruoling's sleeve, and said suspiciously, "Manager Wan, didn't you say to go to Dongyuan Residence?" ā
Wan Ruoling stopped, smiled sideways, and replied, "Yes, the second young master lives in Dongyuan Residence." After saying that, the smile did not fade, and he continued to walk forward.
Walking through a stone arch, the girl was deeply attracted by the scenery in this garden, the fiery red maple leaves, the golden chrysanthemums, so beautiful! This is the so-called garden within a garden in Lufu.
Wan Ruoling told her that the name of this garden was Duanren, and the northernmost part of Duanren Garden was the Tilting Ying Residence, where the eldest lady lived; The southernmost is An Linju, where the third young master lives; And the Dongyuan Residence they are going to is in the easternmost part.
Dongyuan Ju is Ziqiu's private residence, and I said earlier that except for the subordinates designated by the lady and the manager, it is not for anyone to go casually. Because Lu Lan is a daughter, the ban on Yingju in this regard is stricter.
The girl is really lucky, if you want to say that she can walk into Duanren Garden on the first day of entering the mansion, she is the only one except Yin'er.
In the early morning, Duanren Garden was very quiet, relying on the beautiful scenery in this garden, Wan Ruoling took the girl through the garden and walked from the corridor to the East Garden.
Xiang Study, this is Ziqiu's study house.
Ziwei usually kills time here reading books when he has nothing to do. The incense study still inherits the simple style of Dongyuan Ju, mainly potted plants, supplemented by calligraphy, painting and porcelain. There are two rooms, the outer room is the tea house, and the inner room is the study, the two rooms are separated by a screen, and there are two maids in the house.
What a big house!
The largest room that the girl has ever seen in her life should belong to the internal affairs hall of the Lu Mansion, and the incense study must be slightly inferior to it, but she knows that this is the second young master's study house... And it's just a book house, smiling bitterly, this is the capital of those sons who bully power, but this seemingly simple book house is full of luxury, and the places where Young Master Lu reads and recreational are several times larger than the home where he once lived.
The maidservant in front of the screen saw Wan Ruoling and hurriedly greeted her, and saluted: "Manager Wan." ā
Wan Ruoling nodded with a smile and asked, "Is the second young master inside?" ā
"Yes." A maidservant girl replied, "The second young master has been reading in the inner room and has never gone out. ā
"Okay, you guys go and get busy, just leave it to me here." Wan Ruoling said softly to them.
The two maidservants answered, saluted again, and left together. Wan Ruoling glanced at the girl, and then led her around the screen to the inner room.
In the red room, red carpet, red curtains, and behind the dark red bookcase sat a personable young man, dressed in exquisite white clothes and embellished with gold threads, and his focused expression was heroic.
The young man didn't seem to know that someone had come in, he was still immersed in the sea of books and didn't look up, his long black hair poured down like a cloud, his arrogant and indifferent expression revealed an unruly temperament, and his admirable silhouette exuded a hint of royal aristocracy.
He... Is it the second young master?
