Chapter 172: Mother-in-law
This is the final word.
The reputation of this princess will soon spread again in the capital.
The old bustard arranged a room for He Zheng and Yu Jinghuan, and told Peony to stay in the room tonight and talk to Yu Jinghuan.
This Yu Jinghuan is a princess, if the princess is happy, the money she gives is not less than that of ordinary masters.
Peony was stunned, she didn't expect the bustard to let go so easily.
After all, she believed that she was indeed a cash cow in this Huayue Tower, and she was still the daughter of the old bustard
This kind of selling women for glory for a moment, I don't know what to let her say.
Although she was originally a woman who came out of the Qinglou, her identity was as humble as mud.
It was already a great honor to be by the princess's side.
But I don't know why, she is still very sad in her heart.
Yu Jinghuan, He Zheng and Peony were sitting in a room, and the atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.
After all, I really don't know what to say.
Yu Jinghuan turned her head and glanced at He Zheng and said, "Husband, I want to eat snowflake cake." ”
He Zheng raised his eyebrows, but he was a little surprised that Yu Jinghuan would call herself that.
However, seeing outsiders, the original peony seemed to be a little pleasing to the eye.
He nodded, and left the room, where there were only two women left.
Yu Jinghuan breathed a sigh of relief, she washed off the makeup on her face with the hot cloth next to her, and then sat down with Peony.
Peony turned her head and was really surprised by Yu Jinghuan's beauty.
"It is said that the county lord is the first beauty in the capital, and I think it is the first beauty in the world."
That face can't compare even if it's ten points good-looking.
Yu Jinghuan smiled and shook her head, she regained her original voice, with a delicate little daughter.
"What's your original name?"
Most of the women who came to the Qinglou were sold in, or the family was too poor to come in and find a way out.
So it should have the original name.
Peony was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "My name is Peony, I grew up in this green building since I was a child, and that old bustard is my mother." ”
As soon as Yu Jinghuan heard this, her whole person suddenly felt as if she had been hit by electricity, and then looked at Shaoyao's mouth full of wry smiles.
Of course, she knew why the county lord reacted like this.
No one would have thought that the old bustard in the flower moon building was his own mother, and as her own daughter, the old bustard had cultivated herself into an oiran.
It's really funny to sell women for glory.
Yu Jinghuan's mood was a little complicated for a while, which showed that Peony was not happy to live here.
She sighed, but then thought that Peony's mother was here, Yu Jinghuan could only ask tentatively.
"If you leave here, you will be sad, but you will not want to."
She suddenly thought that it didn't matter if it was the women next to her, they would naturally have a bad time in this green building.
What's more, you have to sell your body here, but if you change to peony, it's different.
This Huayue Tower is where she grew up, just like her home.
And her mother-in-law, the old bustard, is still in Huayue Tower, which can be said to be her only thought and reliance.
If she takes her out of here despite Yu Jinghuan's opposition, I'm afraid it will break her heart.
Peony shook her head unexpectedly, and said very firmly: "I never felt that I belonged here. ”
"But what about your mother, do you hate her?" Yu Jinghuan didn't know what to say, and she regretted it a little as soon as she asked.
On the other hand, Peony felt that it didn't matter, she looked at Yu Jinghuan and said one word categorically, "Hate." ”
She did hate.
She hated that the old bustard would be his own mother.
She has had no father since she was a child, and the old bustard can't even tell who his father is until now.
He didn't know what a father was since he was a child, and the children on the street knew that he came out of the green building.
It's just that she is fatherless and motherless, and she is abandoned in this Huayue Building.
She has not had a playmate since she was a child, and when she looks at the filthy things in it, she just feels like her whole person is going to collapse.
Those declining women, when they came to this building to find a way out, would tell him about the fun things outside.
And the freedom of being a young lady before, that thing is what he has always longed for.
Peony looked at Yu Jinghuan, sighed and said: "I also wanted to escape in the past, but I didn't have any money, I was young at the time, if I went out, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to escape from this Jiangnan." ”
When Peony said this, the whole person was in a depressed mood, like a wounded kitten.
yes, even if you go out.
is such a big Jiangnan, and there is no place for her to be a small Qinglou woman.
Yu Jinghuan sighed and stepped forward, gently pulling out the peony medicine in her arms.
Peony was a little flattered, but Yu Jinghuan hugged her and gently patted Peony with her hand.
"If you want to cry, cry out, I just want to tell you that from now on you will not suffer this grievance if you follow me."
Peony only felt that her nose was very sour for a while, and then tears fell down her eyes.
The beauty cried pear blossoms with rain, but it was a pity that Yu Jinghuan couldn't see her crying.
After a while, he withdrew from Yu Jinghuan's arms.
Peony smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "It's all my fault, I even shed tears in front of the princess." ”
Yu Jinghuan shook her head with a smile, and thinking of the old bustard again, she frowned and said, "If this matter is resolved tomorrow morning, we will take a boat back to the capital, are you willing to accompany us." ”
He Zheng has already talked to Yu Jinghuan in private.
Since his whereabouts have been exposed here, it is better to return to the capital and settle down for a few days for safety.
Even if she feels a little pity, Yu Jinghuan can only do so for her own consideration.
Peony's eyes widened when she heard this, and there was finally a smile in her eyes.
"I've heard that there are a lot of fun things in the capital, as well as street juggling, and the palace ......."
Peony's eyes are like a child, and she has lost her deliberate tenderness, looking simple and simple.
Yu Jinghuan nodded, gently held her hair with her hand and said, "There are too many fun things in the capital, but I am also a fun-loving person, if you want to see me, I will take you there." ”
Facing such a girl who looks six or seven points like herself, I don't know why Yu Jinghuan just feels sorry for her.
It's as if there's an invisible bond that binds the two of them together.
Hearing him say this, the smile on Peony's face became even more obvious.
She replied loudly and simply: "I want to see it, princess, I want to see the things in the capital, those things that I have never seen before." ”
Seeing that Peony was so excited, she smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to touch her hair and said, "It's time to leave tomorrow morning after the matter is settled, there is not much time, you might as well go to your mother and mother first to talk and say goodbye." ”
