Chapter 467: Fear of Thieves
Obviously, this "wholeheartedly" has made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has a side concubine and two concubines, OUT!
Chu Xiaosan, what kind of eyes do you have? What about thieves? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rolled his eyes indecently: "I just treat her as a little sister, what are you doing so nervous?" ”
"There is a saying that 'if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves', I don't know if Huang Gongzi has heard of it?" Chu Mutong shook the folding fan in his hand and gave him a look that you would experience.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't know whether to be angry or laugh: "Chu Xiaosan, you are so bold, who is the thief?" ”
"I'm talking about the person who thinks about my sister, and I didn't say you, why are you seated?" After Chu Mutong returned from exile, the emperor gave him a grace to enter the palace to read to the prince, and practiced martial arts together every day, and the relationship between the two was quite close.
"I'm going to think about a bean sprout that hasn't grown? Joke! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince scoffed.
Chu Mutong immediately changed his face: "Who are you talking about!" My sister is obviously a budding flower bone! If you don't have good eyes, don't talk nonsense and expose your flaws! ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was amused: "Don't you just say a word about your sister, what about you!" It is said that your Chu Xiaosan's mouth is very poisonous, I have seen it today! ”
Chu Mutong was silent for a moment, sighed and said, "When my sister was outcast, the hardships she endured were unimaginable. When we were in the Northwest Penal Colony, our whole family was glad to have sent my sister out in time. But who would have thought that her life was ten times worse than ours!
Can you imagine a six- or seven-year-old child, doing laundry, cooking, collecting firewood, feeding pigs...... Also take care of the children. Beat and scolded at every turn, did not give food, could only pick wild vegetables in the mountains to satisfy hunger, and grabbed pig food to eat when hungry......
Can you imagine what it would be like for a sick, hungry, almost unconscious child to be thrown into a wolf-infested place in the mountains, facing the boundless darkness and the danger of wild beasts at any time?
Do you want to figure out how it feels to be sold to people by your parents, you don't dare to cry or make trouble, you are looking for an opportunity to escape, and you will be beaten up after being caught up? ”
The smile on His Royal Highness the Prince's face gradually subsided, he looked at the boundless grief on Chu Mutong's face, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said, "It's all over, and your sister can be regarded as bitter." In the future, you will be kind to her and hurt her more, and you will slowly be able to make up for the pain she has experienced. ”
He didn't expect that a little girl with such clear eyes and a bright smile would have such a tragic and painful past. The tribulations of life did not annihilate her soul, but polished her to be more shining and perfect.
The Chu family, whenever they think of Ye'er's experience, they always feel heartache. Although the Jun family knew some of her most difficult days, they didn't know it in detail, and the family was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it, so they deliberately hid it from her.
Chu Mutong thought more than once that if she hadn't sent her sister out and had a family to protect her, maybe she wouldn't have experienced so many hardships.
"You're right! In the future, our family will protect her, spoil her, and love her. She will never be wronged again. If you want to marry my sister, first of all, you can't take a concubine, the backyard must be absolutely clean, and promise her 'a couple for a lifetime'! Chu Mutong glanced at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince - you are already out, so don't think about it!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't laugh or cry. Isn't it just because of curiosity that I took a look at your sister! "Don't worry! I definitely didn't think about your sister! I could swear to God! Now believe it, right? ”
Chu Mutong nodded with satisfaction, and then remembered to comfort the prince and said, "Your Highness, it's not that you're bad, it's that you're not suitable!" Your crown princess will be the mother of the world in the future. The responsibility is too heavy for my sister to bear......"
"Alright, alright! Isn't it because you feel sorry for your sister and don't want to send her to the deep palace compound to be a caged bird? Hum! The crown princess of this palace, some people want to do it! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince snorted, and went to the mountain behind Anguo Temple to admire the chrysanthemums with his hands behind his back.
Jun rested for a while, and then took his daughter to burn incense and make a vow. When she first returned to Beijing, she once made a wish that if she could find her daughter, she would reshape the golden body of the Bodhisattva. led his daughter to kowtow in front of the Buddha and Bodhisattva one by one, and donated 5,000 taels of silver to the Buddha and Bodhisattva to make a golden body. After a lap, she was still in good spirits, but her body was a little tired.
After returning to the room where the ladies were entertained, Jun felt that his daughter had finally come out and didn't want to be by her side, so he asked her to walk around the temple with Fang'er and her two cousins.
Anguo Temple is a royal temple, covering an area of thousands of acres, the temple is rich in flowers and plants, and the scenery is not bad. Gu Ye and the three little girls walked on the bluestone path in the temple, looking at the good men and women who came to burn incense and worship the Buddha, smelling the strong smell of incense, admiring the grass and trees in the garden, and suddenly open-minded, far away and leisurely.
"Cousin, let's go ask for a sign! I heard that the signature of Anguo Temple is the most effective! Jun Li'er took Gu Ye's hand and proposed.
Jun Miao'er pursed her lips and smiled, and quipped, "What is Sister Li'er going to ask for?" Isn't it asking for marriage? My sister hates to marry so much? ”
Jun Li'er was so funny by her that her face turned red, and she stomped her feet and said, "Sister Miao'er is too bad!" I won't tell you! After speaking, he took Gu Ye and ran away. Ding Fang'er also took a few steps to follow.
Jun Miao'er, who stayed in place, looked at the layers of cornices in the temple and the flowing clouds in the sky, and sighed abruptly.
Although Li'er's cousin's father has a small official position, after all, he was born in an official family. It is said that her uncle, who has made outstanding achievements in office, has hoped for promotion after returning to Beijing to report on his work. Her family affairs should not be worried, although she can't climb the family of the emperor's relatives and princes, it should be no problem to find a noble son who is the right person. Maybe, people can still marry high when they look at the relationship between Zhenguo and Gong!
But what about her? Her father is not angry, her mother is cowardly, and there are many sisters in the family, and she is not the most favored one. I wanted to coax my aunt to be happy and seek a future for myself. But her cousin has been recovered, and all her delusions have been eliminated. Where will she, a helpless duckweed, drift to in the future?
There is also the matter that pressed on her heart, if she was discovered, not only would she have no place in the Zhenguo Mansion, but she was afraid that if she returned to Yancheng, she would also be sent to the family temple for a desolate life.
She didn't know if her cousin, who was proficient in pharmacology, saw anything? My cousin begged Qionglan from her aunt, did she really like it, or did she have a heart? Now, it is imperative that she hide her understanding of pharmacology deep in her heart and not let the second person know. The few books in the study that feed each other are a scourge after all, and they must be dealt with as soon as possible......
