Wen Guqi stood in the courtyard, looking at the full moon, and suddenly felt as if there was a force in his body pulling him.

In the blink of an eye, he seemed to see the furnishings of Chen Wangfu vaguely, and for some reason, a woman with hazy eyes appeared in his mind, and she looked at him with tears in her eyes,

She seemed very sad, and the poignancy in those eyes made his heart cut like a knife.

Even though he couldn't see the woman's face clearly, he unconsciously wanted to squeeze her hand and tell her that he would accompany her.

Wen Guqi held on to open his eyes, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he looked at the small courtyard of Jiangfu again.

Wen Guqi only thought that he was too tired these days, rubbed his eyebrows, and went into the house.

But he didn't know that behind him, the full moon was half blocked by dark clouds in the trance of his eyes and blinking, and he couldn't see it full.

——————

Jiang Family Garden.

At the beginning of the new rain, the soil is soft and black, and stepping on it is a deep footprint.

The steward's mother-in-law on the Zhuangzi took the whip,

"Don't be lazy with me!"

"You were all punished for committing a crime at the master's place, and you used to be the big maids and attendants who served the master closely, and there were even housekeepers."

"But you know, the people who came here never went back, and if you still don't do your best here, don't blame me for being ruthless and beating your delicate body."

The housekeeper's eyelids were swollen, collapsing to cover the small half of her eyes, her pupils were not exposed, her thin lips and the corners of her mouth were sunken, and a face that had become a national character because of her obesity swayed with her movements. The belly of the cheeks trembled, full of fierce looks.

The oil-green satin clothes were smooth, and they also covered her fat, and wrapped her belly tightly, trembling with her movements.

Passing by Ming Yunluo's side, the housekeeper deliberately stopped for a while, rolled her eyes, and said disdainfully,

"Even if you used to be the concubine next to the master, when you come here, you are the lowest slave, if you dare not obey, you will wait for my whip to beat you to death!"

Mingyun Luo's hair was slightly loose, and a few strands of hair fell down and hung down beside her jade white cheeks.

Even after thirty, there are still no wrinkles or signs of age on her face.

A pair of slender, black and white eyes, lips crimson as cherries, fine sweat seeping from her smooth forehead.

Even if you wear the coarsest clothes and don't apply grease, you can be seen at a glance and stand out from the crowd.

She was half-kneeling on the ground, hoeing the mud pit with the small hoe in her hand, and carefully putting the seeds down, not daring to slack off at all.

Everyone else has already planted two rows, and she has only planted half a row. Today, one person has to plant ten lines, and at her rate, she may not be able to plant it at night.

The housekeeper deliberately dangled beside her and sneered,

"This master, don't be embarrassed, just plant this half line, what do you want us to eat in the coming year? Why don't you eat this half row of corn by yourself and eat it for a whole year? ”

As the housekeeper spoke, she whipped Ming Yunluo, who was already weak, and was suddenly whipped and fell into the mud, her hand being cut out of blood by the edge of the hoe.

She gasped in pain, and the people next to her sneered at her, but no one wanted to help her. It's all good things to see her jokes, and secretly mock in my heart,

Even if you are born beautiful, you are not favored in the house, but when you get here, you can't do anything, and everyone is disgusted.

The housekeeper glanced at her and said condescendingly,

"Hurry up, don't pretend to be dead, let me tell you, if you dare to pretend to be dead here today, I will immediately ask someone to wrap you in a straw mat and bury you, even if you are pretending to be dead, you have to give me a real death."

Mingyunluo gritted his teeth and got up, and said in a low voice,

"No..."

"I'll be quick."

She still has to go back, and Ruofu and Huaiyin still need her to take care of her.

When she was still in the house, they had already suffered a lot with her, and now that she is gone, I don't know how much bullying they have to endure on her behalf.

Ming Yunluo clenched the hoe, the wound on her hand hurt so much that she couldn't move her whole hand, she could only hold the hoe stiffly, the stinging pain came from her hand, but she didn't dare to delay.

The housekeeper looked at her disgraced face, and had to endure the pain and work in embarrassment, and walked away satisfied.

Blood fell from her palm, slowly drying and condensing on her hand.

In the evening, she had finally finished planting the ten rows, a little faster than a few people.

Her delicate hand trembled uncontrollably, and she couldn't even hold the basket.

I followed those people back, and I didn't dare to stop at all.

I went back late a few days ago, and I didn't even have food.

Ming Yunluo washed his hands and entered the grass hall, there was no steamed bun left, and others were still grabbing the leftover hard vegetable cakes.

Mingyunluo wanted to step forward, but was pushed away and fell to the ground.

Just hit the whiplash on her waist, and she snorted in pain.

The steward Zhuang Tou hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and his hand did not forget to linger on her shoulder.

"Ahh

"Hurry up."

Mingyun Luo gritted his teeth and stood up by himself, avoiding the hand of the steward Zhuangtou, and walked away with his head down.

As soon as she fell like this, she got up again, and it was black and crumbling in front of her.

She hadn't eaten for three days, and for three days, she had been dizzy after drinking some water, and she couldn't stand on her feet after another day's work.

When her eyes cleared, she saw that the only remaining vegetables and cakes were gone.

The steward Zhuang Tou hurriedly stuffed a cloth bag into her arms, and a pair of mung bean eyes looked at her, showing two rows of yellow teeth and smiling at her,

"Boy, take it."

"Don't let anyone see it."

After everyone finished grabbing, they went to all corners to hide and eat, for fear that others would rob them. Considering that it was too late for him, how could he have the heart to go to Mingyunluo's side.

Even if he was tired and dizzy, Ming Yunluo could feel the heat from the cloth bag in his arms.

That's food.

Even if she knew that Zhuangtou's purpose was not pure for her, she couldn't return the cloth bag.

She can die for Jie, she can starve to death here, but if Fu Huaiyin is still waiting for her, how can she let herself be starved to death here in vain, so that they will be helpless and humiliated like her from now on?

She was dizzy with hunger, hugged the cloth bag with hot air, gritted her teeth and stood firm to prevent herself from falling again.

A mist rose in front of her, and she slowly hugged the cloth bag.

---------

Jiangfu Qinghui Garden.

Xiaoyu pushed open the window and saw horses grazing outside the door.

Dansha saw her and looked away disdainfully.

Xiaoyu: "......"

"Miss, when will you send the fiery horse outside the door away? It's still here, it's scary, and it's weird to occupy space. ”

Wen Guqi lifted the pen to write,

"That horse is still here, so there can be a place to be safe."

When he was there, Qinghui Yuan was already being bullied, and he may not be in the mansion often now, so it is inevitable that someone will take advantage of his absence to bully Jiang Huaiyin and Xiaoyu.

And this horse is in the yard, which can make some people afraid and dare not come forward.

Wen Guqi put down the pen, and Xiaoyu stepped forward.

A little exclamation,

"I haven't seen Miss write for a long time, but now I'm writing better and better, I think it's better than the one that the master wrote and hung in the hall."

Xiaoyu is literate, on weekdays, Mingyunluo teaches Jiang Ruofu to read, Xiaoyu is also watching from the side, Mingyunluo often ridicules Xiaoyu is Jiang Ruofu's companion.

Xiao Yu looked at Wen Guqi's words and read them out in a low voice,

"King Wu is a good swordsman, and the people have many wounds; The king of Chu has a thin waist, and he starves to death in the palace..."

Xiaoyu was puzzled,

"Miss, what does that mean?"

Wen Guqi put down the pen,

"If you want to please people, you must do what you like, but if you blindly pursue superficial things, you will definitely suffer from them."

Wen Guqi's words were not untargeted.

Now that he has figured out the situation of the Jiang family, he has figured it out.

From top to bottom, no one in the Jiang family wants to cling to the powerful in order to become noble and prominent.

In order to climb to the court, he spent a lot of money to buy a pair of Nanzhu, and went crooked to get the post of Chen Wangfu, wanting to sell women for glory.

It's a pity that the Jiang family likes power, and the pursuit of power has reached such a crazy point that it will definitely be backlashed one day.

The consequences of scarring and starvation are mild, but if you go the wrong way, you will inevitably incur even worse consequences.

The whole must be lacking, the extreme must be reversed, and the surplus must be lost.

If you want to be prominent and do not pursue the right path, you will definitely have bad results.

However, even if there is something wrong with the Jiang family, the Jiang family's eagerness to seek glory can be used by him right now.

Since they want power, then he sends it to them.

Wen Guqi raised his eyes.

He was for Jiang Ruofu's entrustment and request.

She begged him to save Aunt Ming, and the hope and tears in those eyes were still in his mind, and he couldn't erase them.

It was unexpected, like a hammer blow to him.

His heart shook violently.

She is willing to let go of her face like this, and she is also willing to go desperate to save her mother in the future, presumably Jiang Ruofu must have a good relationship with her mother.

Wen Guqi's fingertips slid over the piece of jade on his waist.

It's a pity that he didn't even have the opportunity to experience this anxiety and heartache of being a son of man.

On the jade jue on his waist, a full moon rises in the river, and next to the full moon, there is the word "Yuehua".

This jade jue is a relic left to him by his mother.

He didn't have a chance because he didn't have a mother anymore.

No matter how dazzling she was when she was alive, what was the use?

Now, she has become a symbol, a symbol that hangs on him, a sign of his extraordinary origins.

When everyone mentions him, they will say that he is the widow of the eldest princess of Yuehua who died early.

It is the widow of Yuehua, who has received the grace of the Queen Mother and His Majesty.

As long as you climb him, you can win the favor of the queen mother and the emperor.

People flocked to him as they had flocked to his mother all those years ago.

But after her death, no one really remembered her.

He was the only one who guarded the tomb alone, and often went to talk to her.

The eldest princess who was so proud could only lie in the cold tomb.

Even the number of times it has been mentioned is getting less and less.

Wen Guqi closed his eyes,

Jiang Ruofu's friendship with her mother really moved him.

But it's not so much moving as envy.

Envy that she has a mother.

Even if Jiang Ruofu's background is not obvious, his luck is not good.

But being so sincere with his mother is a delusion that he has dreamed of thousands of times, and when he is awake, he can't think of it.

But it's also Jiang Ruofu, something within reach.

Wen Guqi slowly opened his eyes, and the emotions in his eyes had become calm again.

He took a wooden ruler and pressed the paper, looked out the window and said,

"Didn't you want to send this horse away, here's your chance."

Xiao Yu didn't understand what he meant, and only followed his gaze to look at the dansha outside the window.

Wen Guqi walked out of the door and touched Dansha's body, and sure enough, he saw a small wooden barrel tied to the horse's neck.

Because Dansha is a fierce horse, and no one is close to it, this small bucket can be blocked by the mane from being discovered.

Dansha stretched her head over, wanting to rub Wen Guqi to please him.

Wen Guqi only touched the horse's head casually to show reassurance.

He whispered,

"I didn't expect that I would need your help one day."

Wen Guqi clenched the small wooden barrel,

"I'll send you back."

Wen Guqi walked directly outside Jiang Boqi's study and ran into Jiang Hong coming out.

Wen Guqi didn't even look at Jiang Hong, and went straight into the study, because Jiang Hong came out, the door of the study was wide open, so that Wen Guqi could come in directly if he took advantage of the loophole.

When Jiang Boqi heard the voice, he thought that Jiang Hong had gone and returned.

"But what else did you forget?"

Wen Guqi stood in the hall and said lightly,

"It's me."

Jiang Boqi raised his head and frowned,

"Why are you, how can you women come and go in and out of the study at will."

"Come on, take Miss Seven..."

Wen Guqi interrupted him and went straight in,

"The incident of Nanzhu pendant has proved that I am innocent, so Aunt Ming is not guilty and should be sent back, right?"

Jiang Boqi thought of Ming Yunluo, and he was indescribably bored in his heart, every time he saw this concubine's room, he always felt irritable.

Of course, there are reasons for Mingyun Luo's guilt when he was sent to the other garden, but more than that, it was just that he didn't want to see her.

"Aunt Ming just stay in Zhuangzi, it doesn't matter if you send it back or not."

Wen Guqi didn't want to talk to Jiang Boqi too much, he said bluntly,

"If I can benefit the Jiang Mansion, can I send Aunt Ming back?"

Jiang Boqi said impatiently,

"You are a girl, what do you gain by being able to call Jiangfu now? If you can get the joy of Mama Du and choose to be the housekeeper and marry into a high family, it will be beneficial, read more women's four books on weekdays, don't always think about these haves and don'ts. ”

Jiang Boqi summoned the little guy,

"Send Miss Seven back, without my instructions, the female dependents will not be allowed to enter and leave the study in the future."

"Yes."

But before the little guy arrived in front of him, Wen Guqi walked out.

The little girl was glad that Miss Seven didn't embarrass herself, when she heard an explosion outside the door.

The little guy hurriedly went out to see, and a purple firework flew high in the sky and suddenly exploded.

Jiang Boqi was shocked in the room.

And Wen Guqi withdrew his hand and put down the fireworks.

Jiang Boqi said angrily,

"What are you doing here?"

Wen Guqi turned his head and smiled lightly,

"I'm sure you'll find out soon."
