The thing that came unexpectedly made Liu Yin unbearable, although she said that she was ransomed, but she swore that she was unwilling, she thought that her mother would deal with the other party, but who knew that her mother did not make a clear statement, after begging her mother once, Liu Yin was a little desperate, so she told the little girl around her to hurry up and find Zheng Gongzi.

Zheng Gongzi has not come to Shengze Homecoming for a year, and he has not even come to Qinhuai River, which makes Liu Yin's mood very complicated, after the township test, Qinhuai River is telling the story of Xie Yuanlang Zheng Gongzi, many people envy her for having two poems in her hand, and some sisters joke, saying that her Liu Yin's future life must be very good.

Zheng Gongzi didn't go to the Qinhuai River, Liu Yin was both happy and sad, happy that Zheng Gongzi was not a flowery person, sad that he couldn't see Zheng Gongzi, and could only look at the poems written by Zheng Gongzi every day.

A few days ago, Zhang Pu and Yang Yi, who were also very famous in Qinhuaihe, also came, and even that Gong Dingyu also came, and when they came to Shengze to return to their home, Liu Yin did not come forward, and let these people come and return in disappointment, Liu Yin didn't mind at that time.

Things have reached a critical moment, this old man surnamed Zhou, who is said to be an official of the DPRK and China, has already made a minister, which makes Liu Yin understand why his mother can't refuse.

The girl of the Qinglou, the possibility of becoming a lady is almost none, unless she is married to a person of the three religions and nine streams, even if it is a character of the three religions and nine streams, few people are willing to marry the girl of the Qinglou as a lady, and can become a concubine, even if the fate is good, everyone is a beautiful girl, who is willing to enter the Qinglou, an outstanding Qinglou woman, although there are many people who are sought after, but those are all acting on the spot, and they turn around and leave after a play, no one will be nostalgic.

Qinglou women, the social status is the lowest, all the women who leave the Qinglou are hiding the past of the Qinglou, changing their names and surnames, that's it, they are also looked down upon.

Changing to other Qinglou girls, it is a happy thing to be ransomed, but Liu Yin is different, she has someone in her heart.

When the little guy panted and entered the room, Liu Yin almost suffocated, just to see what news the little guy brought, if Zheng Gongzi didn't say anything, she could only appoint, and from then on forget about that Zheng Gongzi and taste the sorrow alone.

"Miss, Miss, Zheng Gongzi will come tonight......"

Liu Yin's body shook for a moment, and then she threw herself on the bed and cried bitterly.

It has entered winter, and before it is time, the sky is dark, and the Qinhuai River has also ushered in a lively time.

When he saw his mother come in, Liu Yin's face turned pale, his hands were tightly holding handkerchiefs, and his knuckles were white.

"Daughter, you must come forward tonight, Lord Zhou invited Zhang Gongzi, Yang Gongzi, Wu Gongzi and Gong Gongzi and others, it's not your mother who forced you, they are already waiting outside, if you don't go out, your mother has no way to explain."

"Mom, but Zheng Gongzi is coming......"

"Alas, daughter, you don't want to think about it, Zheng Gongzi is coming a long time ago, a year has passed, Zheng Gongzi has not been to Qinhuai River at all, what is Zheng Gongzi's identity, Xie Yuanlang, he will go to the capital next year, when the time comes, Hanlin, Feihuang Tengda, where do you remember Qinhuai River."

"Mom, no, Zheng Gongzi will definitely come when he says he will come."

Xu Fojia's face was a little unsightly, in fact, she had already made a decision, ready to accept the conditions proposed by Lord Zhou, people were willing to take out five thousand taels of silver, and there were people behind her to support it, even the big shopkeeper of Sheng Ze's homecoming courtyard acquiesced, so what else could she say, so Liu Yin's fate had already been decided.

In fact, it is not bad to be ransomed by Lord Zhou, although the other party is older, but after all, he is a scholar, has an identity and status, and can become the concubine of Lord Zhou, I don't know how many Qinglou girls can't ask for it.

People should be content, they must be clear about their identity, and they should not be too ambitious.

"Okay, mom has already said, you get ready, go over in a while, clean up well, don't let people see you crying, don't offend the guests, otherwise mom won't be able to protect you."

After Xu Fojia finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Liu Yin who was stunned.

As if she was drenched by a bucket of ice water, Liu Yin was cold, she was sold to Shengze Homecoming for several years, as for the previous experience, she herself can't remember clearly, she has been sold many times, if it weren't for the Xu Fo family's take-in, imparting knowledge, now I don't know what fate it is, disobeying the instructions of the Xu Fo family, it is impossible.

After a while, Liu Yin slowly stood up, walked to the front of the bronze mirror, and began to slowly dress up, she didn't know if Zheng Gongzi would come, maybe what her mother said was right, Zheng Gongzi was just acting on the spot, but it was better than some men, otherwise her mother was so good, why was she alone until now.

The heart is cold, Liu Yin's face slowly became cold, a thirteen-year-old girl, there shouldn't be such a cold look on her face at all, maybe the girl in the Qinglou has suffered too many things.

The time to enter the room is 戌時.

There were many people sitting in the room, the eldest Zhou Daren sat in the middle, with a smile on his face, and there were several men sitting on his left and right, these people Liu Yin all knew, Zhang Pu, the leader of the Restoration Society, Yayuan of the Township Test, Yang Yi, the person of the New Imperial Examination, Zhang Pu's disciple, Wu Weiye, the Yayuan of the Township Test, and Gong Dingyu, who had a fierce conflict with Zheng Gongzi.

Xu Fojia also sat on the side, with a smile on his face.

Maybe it was the look on Liu Yin's face that was wrong, Xu Fojia glared at Liu Yin fiercely, making Liu Yin's body tremble slightly, and hurriedly gave everyone a blessing ceremony.

Lord Zhou didn't seem to mind, looked at Liu Yin and smiled, pointed to the seat next to him, and asked Liu Yin to sit down.

The expressions of Zhang Pu and the others were a little complicated, perhaps because they thought of coming to Shengze Homecoming Courtyard a few days ago, Liu Yin did not come forward, which made them lose face, and the smiles of several people were a little reluctant.

"My lord, my sons, Liu Yin is young and ignorant, please bear with me......"

Before Xu Fojia finished speaking, Lord Zhou smiled and spoke.

"The shopkeeper doesn't have to be polite, Miss Liu is still young, and some tempers are normal, if there is no temper, the old man can't look down on it."

But at this time, a discordant voice came.

"Miss Liu, Lord Zhou has said so, can't you smile, what do you think you are......"

It was Gong Dingyu who spoke, but neither Zhang Pu nor Yang Yi spoke, only Wu Weiye, with an unbearable look on his face, wanted to speak, but was stopped by Zhang Pu with his eyes.

"Filial piety, don't be excited, young man, when you reach the age of the old man, you can see it all."

After Lord Zhou persuaded Gong Dingyu, he spoke to Liu Yin.

"Miss Liu, the young man is angry, don't you mind."

Xu Fojia's face became a little ugly, she knew that Gong Dingyu was deliberately finding fault, but he was a guest, but it was not something that Sheng Ze Guijia could offend, and the big shopkeeper also had words in front, Zhang Pu, Yang Yi and Wu Weiye and others were all promising, and it was best not to offend Sheng Ze Guijia.

"My lord, it's not that the juniors deliberately provoke thorns, you see that Miss Liu is as cold as ice, here is to accompany the guests, the adults come to Shengze to return to the house, they are here for leisure, but they don't look at anyone's face, Miss Liu is so ignorant, Shopkeeper Xu, I feel that I need to train it well."

Zhang Pu and Yang Yi's faces were as usual, and although Lord Zhou had persuaded Gong Dingyu earlier, he didn't speak at this time.

Wu Weiye finally couldn't help it, after all, he was much younger than Zhang Pu and Yang Yi and others.

"Brother Xiaokai, you said too much, today we came to Shengze Homecoming, we are accompanying the adults, and the adults have not opened their mouths to complain, you say so much, is it a little inappropriate."

As soon as Wu Weiye's words fell, Yang Yi followed and spoke.

"Jun Gong, you are still young, it is understandable to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, but this Qinglou has the rules of the Qinglou, if the guests come, the girls in the Qinglou are as cold as ice, then no one is happy, if you are not feeling well, you can not come forward, last time we came to Shengze Home, Miss Liu is not feeling well, since her body is good today, this look is not right."

The smile on Lord Zhou's face is still the same, as if he is watching the excitement, he has made all the preparations for Liu Yin's redemption, looking at this little girl's cold appearance at this moment, his heart is indeed uncomfortable, let everyone talk about it, let Liu Yin restrain his temper, it is also beneficial.

Xu Fojia's face turned a little blue, she knew that it was difficult to give up today, the reason why Liu Yin was like this must be for a reason, she knew it, but she couldn't say it, otherwise it would be more troublesome.

"Daughter, the adults and several sons have said, your attitude today is really not good, my mother knows that your body has not fully recovered, but the people who came today are all distinguished guests, you hold on."

Liu Yin has already tried his best to control his own feelings, and the girl in the Qinglou is so miserable, even if her heart is all cold, she has to pretend to have a smile on her face to make the guests happy, regardless of whether the guests are difficult or not.

Xu Fojia spoke, Liu Yin knew that her feelings had to be adjusted, years of training, seeing the effect at this moment, she stood up, poured a glass of wine for Lord Zhou, and a smile appeared on her face.

"My lord, the little woman is not feeling well these days, and she just expressed that it was inappropriate, please forgive me."

The atmosphere finally eased a little, and Xu Fojia's face became better.

"Miss Liu, adults really want to appreciate the two poems "Magnolia Flower Order" and "Butterfly Love Flower", I heard that Miss Liu has composed the music, and she will sing it here today, how about it."

After Gong Dingyu said this, Xu Fojia's face instantly turned pale, and his impression of Gong Dingyu was extremely bad in his heart, and his impression of Zhang Pu, Yang Yi and Wu Weiye and others was not very good.
