Rong Hua walked quickly to Rong Yu's side and asked, "Why are you crying again?" ”

Rong Yu shook his head, raised his left hand to wipe away his tears, and tried to squeeze out a smile: "Big sister, I'm fine, let's go and say hello to my mother quickly." ”

After crying all morning but saying "It's okay", Rong Hua didn't believe it, but after a long delay today, it was already past the time to say hello in the morning, she temporarily pressed the doubts in her heart, took Rong Yu's hand, and walked quickly towards the Orthodox Courtyard where Xiao Shen's family lived.

Hurried to the main courtyard, the flower hall was already full of people sitting or standing.

Rong Hua greeted Xiao Shen and said, "Mother, my daughter is late, please forgive me." ”

Rong Yu skillfully followed Rong Hua to say goodbye, but a pair of eyes couldn't help but look at the people in the room.

Xiao Shen was wearing a dark red carved silk tuanhua large-sleeved skirt, and sat in the chair with Brother Chi in his arms in the north.

On the east side sat Rong Ye and Rong Wen in turn, the first two chairs on the west side were empty, and Rong Ying and Rong Lian sat behind them.

Qianniang stood behind Rong Lian in an orderly manner.

That's it.

As for Duchenne......

Du Shi is the daughter of a poor scholar, in order to make a living she had to go out to work part-time, at that time the situation of the Taining Marquis Mansion was also very bad, even a full number of slaves could not be raised, when the need to pay attention to the occasion, he hired a short-term worker as a domestic servant.

The short-term worker Du Shi and the prince of the Hou Mansion, Rong Heng, got acquainted from this.

The Du family is talented and good-looking, Rong Heng is quite fond of her, and seeing that the Hou Mansion is in decline, he actually promised to marry her as a wife.

In the end, Rong Heng was forced by the old marquis to marry the young lady of the Shen family, a wealthy man in Suzhou, as his wife, and soon the Du family was accepted into the Hou Mansion as a noble concubine.

Although she became a concubine, Du was a daughter from a good family who was born in a scholar's family, and she was extremely unwilling to serve the master in the concubine's room, and she complained of illness twice in three days.

Da Shen couldn't be angry, but when the matter came to Rong Heng, he always defended the Du family out of guilt, and several times, the Du family's rules were abandoned.

Although Xiao Shen's surname is also "Shen", in fact, she is just a distant sister of the Da Shen family, she married into the Hou Mansion as a house-filler, and she is soft-spoken, and it is even more impossible to set rules for the Du family.

This is what we are today.

This year is the third year of Wucheng, and Rong Yu is eight years old.

The eldest sister Rong Hua was born to the Great Shen family, and the second son, Rong Ye, was ten years old.

Du's eldest son Rong Wen and second lady Rong Ying are both twelve years old.

Qian Niang's fourth lady, Rong Lian, was seven years old.

Rong Yu's younger brother Rong Chi is three years old.

Therefore, people appeared in front of them together, and they were all the same as many years ago, and Rong Yu was quite emotional.

Rong Hua led Rong Yu and sat down on the west side.

Rong Yu had the heart to take a closer look, but at this moment, if she blindly stared at people, it would be rude and weird, so she had to sweep everyone around as if she was casually.

But still, I couldn't help but look at Rong Ying twice.

The twelve-year-old girl wore a white brocade moire Hunan skirt, a white hosta diagonally inserted in her loose bun, and a white jade bracelet with the same quality as the hairpin on her left wrist.

Rong Ying is happy and pure, in Rong Yu's memory, except for the time when Rong Ying got married in her previous life, she never seemed to have seen Rong Ying wearing bright clothes.

The beauty of the country, dressed in white, jade and ice, and even more beautiful in red.

After fighting for a lifetime, seeing Rong Ying again, Rong Yu sighed heartily: She was born so well!

Rong Ying is only twelve years old now, and her clothes and accessories are not outstanding, and her beauty is already amazing.

In a few years, after she has fully grown up, she wears the best tailor and embroidery girl with a 10,000-dollar streamer brocade customized dress for her, wearing rare jade, those exquisite clothes and ornaments lined with her beautiful face and dusty temperament, which makes the world dazzled and unforgettable.

The stunning beauty is shocking in the eyes of others, but the sisters around her may not think so.

Any woman can easily look inferior when she is with Rong Ying.

The sisters are all surnamed "Rong", they are all young ladies from the Taining Hou Mansion, and they are almost the same age, but Rong Ying was born like that.

The teenage girls will have some envy, jealousy, and resentment in their hearts......

In his previous life, Rong Yu was like this, with a single thought, he embarked on a crooked path.

Now that she is a human being in two lives, she looks at Rong Ying again, and her mood is completely different from that of herself seventeen years ago.

In the future, how many people in this world want to see the princess Duan, who looks like a fairy, but she can clearly see how this beauty gradually grows up.

You should look at beautiful things with an appreciative eye.

What's more, Rong Ying, a peerless famous flower, is both beautiful and powerful, and she can't afford to provoke her.

Rong Ying noticed Rong Yu's gaze and looked at her lightly, and Rong Yu immediately replied to her with a sincere smile.

This time, she wanted to die.

If you want to die properly, you must not provoke someone who can't be provoked, for example, the second lady of the Rong family.

Rong Ying was a little surprised by Rong Yu's contrived smile, she frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.

Seeing Rong Ying frowning, Rong Yu couldn't help but secretly blame himself for acting recklessly.

According to her temperament when she was a child, the relationship with Rong Ying must not be intimate at this time, she looked at others rudely, and smiled at others strangely, Rong Ying was not suspicious.

How can this be remedied......

Before Rong Yu could come up with an idea, he heard Xiao Shen's puzzled voice in his ears: "Hua'er, what's going on with Yu'er's eyes?" ”

She was mentioned......

Rong Yu temporarily pressed the miscellaneous thoughts in his heart and looked at Xiao Shen who asked questions.

Xiao Shen was also looking at her, his eyes full of concern.

Her mother......

Rong Yu's heart was sour.

When she was young, her relationship with Xiao Shen was not close.

She blamed her mother for putting too much energy on Rong Ye and Rong Chi.

But in the last life, when she was bent on marrying the sixth prince, although her mind was so outrageous, her mother did her best to plan for her, and after the family affairs were decided, she prepared a rich dowry for her and sent her to marry into the Ning Palace.

Before getting married, her mother talked to her and taught her the secrets of the boudoir, she was moved for a while, and said her thoughts to her mother: "Mother, I always thought that you didn't like me, but this time, this time I want to marry the sixth prince, only you help me ......"

The mother smiled and said, "You are my first child, I conceived and gave birth to you in October, how can I not like you?" ”

smiled, laughed, but shed tears: "Back then, the head of the Shen family took a fancy to me and sent me to Kyoto to be a lady filling the house. ”

"No one asked me if I would like ......"

"At that time, I swore in my heart that if I had a daughter in the future, I would marry her to her satisfaction."

After getting married, Rong Yu gradually understood his mother.

Married to Rong Heng as a house-filling lady, she took care of the golden concubine left by her sister-in-law with all her heart, and couldn't take care of her own daughter......

Every step was not Xiao Shen's own choice, but the road she had to go on.

……

Rong Yu came back to her senses, Rong Hua had briefly explained that she was crying in the morning, Xiao Shen was still not at ease, and was about to say something more, when she saw a second woman wearing a coarse cloth shirt walk quickly to the door of the flower hall, and curtled her knees and said: "Madam, there are distant guests in the house, and the Hou Ye asked the little one to inform Madame and ask Madame to prepare a table for a family banquet at noon." ”

And all the people looked at the woman.

Xiao Shen cheered up to deal with this sudden incident, she looked slightly sideways at a grandmother standing beside her: "Mama You, you take that mother-in-law down to ask, which guest is here, how many people are there, it is a family banquet, do you need to set up a small table for the sons and young ladies......"

"If the woman can't tell clearly, you can take my sign and go to the front to ask Steward Ding."

Mama You responded, bent her knees and was about to retreat, but she didn't want the woman at the door to open her mouth: "Madam, you don't have to be so meticulous, the person who came here is a poor boy." ”

Xiao Shen's face sank, and he looked coldly at the mother-in-law at the door.

The mother-in-law didn't realize that her tongue had already disliked her master, so she said more and more energetically: "The tattered patched clothes and the poor sour air around the body are better than the servants who pour night incense in our Hou Mansion......"

Xiao Shen stretched out his palm and slapped it heavily on the small table beside him, and said angrily: "Shut up!" Even the rough mother-in-law shouldn't be so confused, saying these bastard things in front of the young ladies! Mama You, take her down and wait for me to send her! ”

Only then did the woman realize that she had caused trouble, so she fell to her knees and begged for mercy in a loud voice: "Madam, the little one knows that ...... wrong."

Seeing that Xiao Shen's anger was unabated, he finally raised his palm and slapped himself.

This bastard minion......

Xiao Shen was depressed, and in the end, he hindered the presence of his children, so he had to endure his anger and order them to go back to their rooms first.

……

Rong Hua led Rong Yu back to the east courtyard, and a little maid was waiting at the gate of the courtyard: "Eldest Miss, Third Miss, Master Hou ordered, there are distant guests at home, and the young ladies' schoolwork will be suspended for a few days." ”

Rong Hua asked, "Where did the distant guest come from, and even the young ladies' schoolwork had to be stopped?" ”

The little maid shook her head: "Miss, please forgive the slave for not knowing." ”

Rong Hua pondered for a moment, let the little maid go, and then instructed his maid: "Go and ask, also, ask the sons if they are going to school as usual." ”

The maid took the order and went.

Rong Yu looked at Rong Hua.

A poor traveler who caused the ladies to stop their studies......

Rong Hua asked the maid to inquire and "ask the sons if they are going to school as usual", indicating that she had thought of that possibility.

And Rong Yu, reliving a lifetime, she couldn't know very well who the "distant guest" was.

Mu Linyuan.

……

The Mu family has practiced medicine for generations, and the ancestors of the Mu family once saved the life of Rong Yu's great-grandfather.

The rescued Marquis of Taining thanked the life-saving benefactor and specially gave back a hundred taels of gold.

The Mu family returned the gold, and the Tao is a doctor who saves people, not seeking fame and fortune.

The old Marquis Taining felt the righteousness of the Mu family, and said that he was willing to marry the Mu family, and in order to show his sincerity, he sent a blank marriage book with a seal.

The Mu family did not return the marriage certificate, but in the life of the old marquis, the Mu family never set foot in the Taining Marquis Mansion.

The same was true when the Marquis of Taining was alive.

Decades have passed, and not many people in the Hou Mansion know about this marriage letter.

After Rong Heng inherited the title, in the third year of Wucheng, the descendants of the Mu family came to the door with the marriage certificate.

Rong Hua looked at Rong Yu: "Don't you think that you don't have to study if you don't go to class today, come in with me, you haven't made it clear what happened this morning......

Rong Yu couldn't help but speak: "Big sister, that distant guest ......"

Rong Hua interrupted her: "That distant guest has nothing to do with you", and after speaking, he led Rong Yu back to the room.

That distant guest has nothing to do with you......

Yes, a poor and destitute guest, even if it involves marriage, has nothing to do with the ladies of the Taining Marquis Mansion.

That's probably what everyone thinks at this point.

Otherwise, things are unpredictable.

Rong Yu looked at Rong Hua without saying anything.

The person who finally married her bright moon-like big sister was Mu Linyuan......
