Chapter 9: Peel it off
People often say that Ji Qingyuan, the eldest son of the Southern Chu State Division, is a son who should not have been born, and he has grown into a waste as everyone wishes, a waste who has been obedient.
But only one person knows that it really shouldn't exist in this world, and the waste that really drags others down is never her brother.
The most obedient person is not Ji Qingyuan, but Ji Ange.
Her brother was still able to gamble his life for what he believed in, even against his father.
But Ji Ange didn't have anything.
She didn't dare to resist anything, she remembered late, and she hadn't seen the time when her brother experienced "not to be afraid of anyone".
From the time she was sensible, she only knew that as long as Mrs. Guoshi said a word, the subordinates in her courtyard who showed a little kindness to her would disappear the next day.
She only knew that she had no one to rely on except her brother, that she had no maternal family, no status in her father's heart, and no one to worry about her marriage. Just wait for the time when it is profitable, and maybe it will be directly pushed out of the door in exchange for benefits.
She only knew that if Ye Jingshu wanted to snatch something from her, she had better offer it with both hands as soon as possible.
It's best not to let the eldest brother know, otherwise there will be a storm in the house again.
And when she was nine years old, she learned another thing when she learned of her mother's death.
It's just that her face is invisible.
Her face was a disaster, a curse, a sight of the light.
Father came to her yard after a long absence, and threw her the only thing she had received from him.
That's the veil.
Along with the veil came a cold sentence.
"Don't let your face be seen."
Then the man walked away without giving him a look, as if it was unbearable for him to look at her too much.
She shouldn't have been born in this world.
Ji Ange clenched the edge of the veil in his hand and tasted the bloody taste in his mouth.
Looking at the calm eyes of the princess in front of him, Ji Ange's chest rose and fell a little.
She didn't know why she was so impulsive, although she rarely appeared in front of people since she was a child, but there were many people who sneered at her veil, Ye Jingshu didn't know how many times she had provoked, but she had always firmly followed her father's instructions and never took it down.
Never let people see it.
Instead, it took advantage of the minds of those women.
Why bother to make your father angry?
Maybe this is the only thing Ji Ange thinks she can insist on, but today......
But what's wrong with her today? The woman had only spoken a few words, but she reached out to remove the veil as the man had wished.
Do you think your face is unsightly?
Compared with Ye Jingshu's women, this sentence is not provocative, and Ji Ange has heard it no matter how ugly it is.
Ji Ange looked at this princess named Yinghuyue.
But if anything...... It was in the eyes of this girl that there was no contempt or ridicule.
Nor did I look hilarious with curiosity and cheap sympathy.
Nothing.
The girl's eyes looked at her calmly without blinking.
But it was such a calm gaze and words that pierced Ji Ange's heart with a faint pain.
It was the first time they had met, but the girl's gaze could penetrate into her heart. It even makes people feel that this person is feeling sorry for her.
What a delusion!
Maybe it's because of the brother's bystanding, maybe it's because of the girl's words, maybe it's because of the eyes she's never seen before.
Anyway, when Ji Ange realized it, her hand had already grabbed the veil and was about to lift it up.
"Eldest sister?"
Ji Ange reacted with a thrill, and the hand that lifted the veil stopped in mid-air. She looked at the surprised teenagers and the only calm girl in front of her in a daze, and her mind was confused.
She...... What's going on?
At the moment now, she was so deluded that she wanted to disobey her father's orders?
She......
And in the next moment, Ji Ange felt a chill on the back of her hand, and the girl stepped forward and actually stretched out her hand to hold her hand holding the veil.
"You ......" Ji Ange immediately wanted to struggle, but when she felt the touch on the back of her hand, the whole person was stunned.
Blood blisters and wounds covered the girl's entire palm.
This is an unimaginable hand of a boudoir girl, and it is also a hand that is difficult to break free, and Ying Baoyue will not give her a chance to struggle.
She couldn't let that man's daughter survive in this way.
Standing in front of a girl who was a head taller than her, Ying hugged the moon as if looking at a secret that she had never seen before.
When she saw the girl wearing a veil on her face, Ying Baoyue thought it was just a folded face when she went out, but from the conversation just now, she learned that Ji Ange had been wearing it and was unwilling to take it down.
Ying Baoyue's eyes were cold.
Or maybe someone won't take it for her.
So what exactly is hidden under the veil?
Ying Baoyue stretched out her hand, holding the girl's hand and not giving her a chance to regret it, and suddenly opened the secret that she had never seen in her previous life and this life.
……
……
"What do you want to do?!"
"I want to see your face under the veil."
The girl moved too fast, and Ji Ange's reaction was too abnormal, so that Ji Qingyuan and Ji Jiashu lost the opportunity to stop it.
By the time the men reacted, the veil on the face of his eldest sister had been removed from the face that Ji Jiashu had seen since he was a child.
The next moment, the two girls standing facing each other froze in place.
Even Ji Jiashu had never seen Ji Ange take off the veil, he would ask questions about this matter when he was a child, and he was also curious about why the eldest sister wore a veil, but it caused his mother to be furious and lash out at his subordinates.
In the end, he had no choice but to swallow the question in his stomach.
Ji Ange never allowed anyone to touch her veil, and would never take the initiative to untie the veil.
That's how it should be.
But Ji Jiashu didn't expect that the veil of the eldest sister, who never showed her face less than a quarter of an hour after his future wife met him...... It was revealed.
He also took the blessing of this princess who hugged the moon and knew what his sister looked like.
It's not that there is any flaw on Ji Ange's face as he guessed when he was a child.
Aside from his appearance, although he didn't look particularly similar to him and Ji Qingyuan, Ji Jiashu really couldn't see anything to cover this face.
"Eldest sister, the ...... of the palace" Although the contact time has not been long, Ji Jiashu always feels that this princess is a person who keeps manners, and for some reason he suddenly made such a move, he was about to open his mouth to stop this strange scene, and the next moment, he suddenly found that the girl in front of him was staring at Ji Ange's face, and clenched his fists.
Blood oozed from her fingers, staining the veil in Ying Baoyue's hand red.
"Now you see it," Ji Ange looked at Ying Baoyue lightly, "Your Highness, are you satisfied?" ”
"Does the appearance of the folk girl match your ......?"
Ji Ange took a deep breath and was about to sneer a few words, but the moment she saw the girl's eyes, she lost her words.
Ji Ange had a hard time describing this look.
But her face was reflected in those clear eyes, and the deep thoughts contained in the still water seemed to drown Ji Ange.
"You ......"
Ji Ange looked at the girl in front of her and tentatively spoke, the next moment she heard the sound of clenching her teeth, and the next moment the girl lowered her head slightly and raised it again, looked at her and smiled.
"I do."
Ying Baoyue stared at Ji Ange's face, and finally understood why Ji Mo would ask Ji Ange to wear a veil.
Because of Ji Ange's appearance......
Almost identical to its mother.
