Chapter 34: Grievances
Hui Lan opened her eyes at this time, "You can't forget my credit." That's what my grandmother left for me, and she didn't want to eat it herself, and that pill wouldn't last that long, and she needed several more. β
Her aggrieved flat mouth, frowning and having a painful expression, made Li Chengze laugh.
"Okay, I know that I broke the bank, remember your good, is the silver enough, Ming'er asked Chang Ji to send you some more, just tell me if you lack money."
I'm moving fast today, and there's still some time, do you want to go home and take a look? β
Hui Lan immediately shook her head, her expression was very cold, "No need, my grandmother has passed away, what I miss most is her old man, and others don't have to be so troublesome." β
It didn't matter in the first place, it was all because of the involvement of the original owner, and it was necessary for her to protect the Ding family and her grandfather's family, otherwise she didn't have to deal with it.
"You're a poor one, aren't you close to your mother?"
Li Chengze found some, but the details were unknown, and he guessed that she was a little unreliable.
"Actually, it's nothing, I know that I still have a sister, named Ding Manxuan.
I have been growing up in my grandparents' house for many years, and my mother gave birth to me less than a year old and followed me out, and I was still missing me earlier, but a year later my sister Manxuan was born, and my mother empathized and raised my sister by her side.
When I met my mother again, I was almost ten years old, and my father and mother were not too close to me, only my brother and I stayed at my grandfather's house to go to school, and we have always loved me.
My grandmother said that my mother was biased and asked me to be closer to my father.
In fact, I didn't have to be drafted, my father told me a good family, but my mother said that I was afraid that there would be a disaster if I found out, and said that I couldn't be selected if I went, so it was better to report it first.
Then I was chosen, and that's it. β
Huilan's eyes showed loss, and she felt sorry for the original owner, and was deceived by her mother. My mother knew that she could be chosen, these eyes were so beautiful that no one would ignore them.
Her intention is also to plan for her son, and she can operate it anyway, and then the family business is very good.
"That protΓ©gΓ© said it was your sister, didn't you?"
Li Chengze opened his mouth clearly, there is no need to check this, he didn't know the reason for it before, the news of the report was already there, and he didn't say anything else.
"Yes, for my sister, my brother made a big fuss about my draft, and he was beaten with a stick, and he couldn't get out of bed for days. My mother gave me a silver ticket of 1,000 taels after I announced that I had entered the palace, and prepared a dowry of 30,000 taels for my sister. β
As the last tear fell, she leaned her head against the wall of the carriage, hiding that she didn't want people to see it.
Li Chengze sighed, this is more sad than not having a mother, there is nowhere to reason.
Thirty thousand taels and one thousand taels, it really can't be said.
Stretched out his arm and hugged the person in his arms, "I will hurt you in the future, I didn't expect you to be as bitter as me, and you are not as good as me, I have no mother." But he is also a prince, but no one dares to bully me. β
Huilan buried her head in his arms, sobbing quietly, really crying, not for the sake of her cheap mother, but because she couldn't go back, but her mother was very good to her.
Her mother is also a concubine, her father is a high-level monk, her mother is very good to her, she is good at digging her heart, and she gives her all the resources and good things she can get from the pet.
However, his father has more than a dozen children, eight daughters, and six talented people, she is not on the list, but she has never suffered such grievances.
She cried because she couldn't see her mother, and I hope she can live well over there, don't be sad for me.
"Don't cry. In the future, I will love you, you have helped me so much, I remember it. β
Li Chengze knew that it was not easy for this girl, and her mother-in-law raised her feelings, but she kept her own life behind her head, and used her to exchange her for her son's future, and he felt that there was nothing wrong.
The benefits are all taken by the concubine, she can't even say the grievances, it's her own mother, how can it be bad for her, no one believes it.
Huilan cried enough, raised her head and wiped her tears, and sneered again, "Let the master laugh at me, I want to eat snacks, I want to eat delicious food, it is difficult to come out once, let Xiao Anzi buy it for me." β
"Okay, Chang Ji will let Xiao Anzi buy it, and we will wait in the restaurant."
Li Chengze immediately ordered, just to make the beauty smile.
Hui Lan smiled sweetly, "Master next time I won't use it, I have already seen the pulse and know how to take the medicine, I made the medicine and you can send other imperial doctors." β
"Cheng, last time Imperial Doctor Xu was a lonely person, just let him send it. If you have any problems in the future, you can find him. β
Huilan suddenly smiled very happily, and took the initiative to lean into his arms, "I remember, it is still the best for me, in fact, I think it is good to enter the palace, otherwise I can't know the master, let alone be the master's woman." I just want to keep my grandfather's birthday. β
"Silly girl."
It's also a luxury to want to have a peaceful birthday.
Li Chengze hugged her and chuckled, it's a big deal to protect herself more in the future.
After a while, he arrived at a nearby restaurant, and Li Chengze took her to the restaurant to drink tea, which has a private room that he has contracted all year round.
"Father-in-law Chang, remember to help me buy a few more snacks and gadgets like palace flower rouge, I'll take it back and share it with everyone, just have fun."
The money was paid by the prince.
"Yes, I can't forget it, don't worry."
Chang Ji's impression of Huilan is getting better and better, and he didn't forget to bring a gadget to the minions at home when he came out, the things are not necessarily valuable, but a heart, the master has not forgotten the minions.
"Thank you, Xiao Anzi, this is for you to drink tea, you have worked hard to give me a trip."
Hui Lan took a purse and handed it to him, it was ten taels of silver, he was Chang Ji's apprentice, and he wanted to give him some face.
"Oops! Thank you very much. β
Xiao Anzi glanced at his master Changji, and when he saw that he nodded before he dared to accept it, he immediately bent down and thanked him.
"Go, go, buy me all sorts of good food."
"Okay, don't worry, I'm very familiar."
Xiao Anzi often goes out of the palace to help the prince, he is clever and can be regarded as a confidant, and the little eunuch does not bother to be eyed, Chang Ji Lao asked him to run outside, and his heart was clear.
Huilan followed into the private room to drink tea, and Li Chengze was afraid that she would be hungry, so he ordered a few snacks here.
"Try this dim sum, it's very distinctive, it's different from the palace, I asked people to wrap some back, you like to bring it to you next time."
"Thank you, sir, this salty and delicious."
Huilan sat there sipping tea and eating snacks, leaving the sadness just now, and becoming cheerful and lively again, no matter where she was, she had to be happy, and it was serious to live her life better than smooth.
This is what her mother taught her, don't be discouraged at any time, you should be cheerful, optimistic and positive to survive, it's better to die than to live, why don't you have the courage to live.
Li Chengze saw the perseverance and bravery in her eyes, and couldn't help but nod appreciatively in her heart, although she was young, her tutor was very good, and she was still a good girl with goods in her belly.
This talented but low-key person wishes that no one would notice her, but that one wishes that the whole world knew that she was a little talented.
