030. Heart

Dong E's seventy looked at his daughter in front of him.

This daughter has always been confident and calm, but at this moment she is weak and injured, and the helplessness that lingers between her eyebrows makes her male. Although his daughter was not raised by him, she was also the flesh of his palm and the pearl of his palm.

"Qing'er, leave the capital with your grandfather, go to England that you have been longing for, and find your happiness!" He said lightly but firmly. Nothing is more important than the happiness of your daughter!

He knows his daughter's thoughts and ideals, but under the system of the Qing Dynasty, a woman's thoughts and ideals are so insignificant and involuntary, not to mention that Qing'er's ideals are leaving the Qing Dynasty. He knew that the first emperor had established a draft system: all women from the families of the Eight Banners who had reached the age of 14 to 16 had to participate in the triennial selection of show girls. The purpose of selecting a show girl, in addition to enriching the harem, is to marry the children and grandchildren of the royal family, or to marry the prince, the prince of the county and their sons, and the importance goes without saying. Those who are not in the flag want to participate in the draft, and they are bound to climb to the sky; Zaiqi's want to escape the draft, but he is also asking for hardship. And his decision is tantamount to challenging the system of the Qing Dynasty and the imperial power, and it may cost him his life. But even if it was to give him his life, he was willing! He just wants his daughter to be happy!

Qing'er looked up at Amma, the determination on Amma's face made her heart touched and hurt again, this look is so familiar, in the first two years of Master Xuerou's departure, she would see this look on the master's face in her dreams every night, this look is duty-bound! It's a sacrifice!

Amma wants to trade her life for her happiness! After E-Niang sacrificed her life for her, she wanted to take Amma's life again? She can't! She can't! She can't do it! The people who loved her left her one after another, and she had no ability to save their lives, which was a heartbreak that could never be healed with her, and if she lost Amma because of her, then she really couldn't forgive herself.

She can't just watch the people around her leave her! Seeing her loved ones leave her! She can't, she can't bear this kind of pain, this kind of heart-piercing pain, this kind of pain doesn't want to give birth to the emperor's pain. If she had a choice, she would have preferred to leave by herself, and she would have always been willing to leave.

"Amma, you all want Qing'er to be happy, but without you, how can Qing'er be happy! Sacrificing the happiness you get, that's not the happiness Qing'er wants! No! Definitely not! "I no longer hide my emotions, and tears are dragging through my clothes.

Dong E hugged his daughter tightly. When his daughter returned to Beijing, he had secretly determined to help her be happy, but the current situation told him that his daughter's future was not in his hands, and his daughter's happiness could not be given by him.

The daughter is already a chess piece in the hands of the emperor, and whether she is happy in the future depends on where the child falls.

Lying in Amma's arms, Qing'er called in a low voice: "Amma! ”

Dong E's seventy stroked his daughter's green silk, and his heart was sour, "Qing'er! You are not only your mother's baby, grandfather's baby, Qing'er, you are also Amma's baby, what Ama wants in this life is only your happiness, only you are happy, Ama is worthy of your early death of Eniang, worthy of your grandparents' nurturing and cultivation of you, and worthy of Amma's own heart. Do you know? ”

Qing'er nodded heavily, she knew, she knew it. This Amma who peeked at her sleep, Amma who covered her with a quilt, Amma who peeked at her work, Amma who peeked at her clothing design sketches, Amma who wandered outside her girlfriends, Amma who would go to Hufu to see her every other day or two, how could she not know, how could she not know that Amma loved her and loved her, how could she not know that Amma treated her with such a fatherly heart, it was always her who ignored Amma and ignored Amma's love. Ignoring the heart of a loving father.

"If Amma's life is exchanged for his daughter's freedom, then Amma is sacrificing in vain, because her daughter will never be free again, her heart is imprisoned, and her body will be free!" After a slight pause, Qing'er said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Amma, I'm worrying about you, Qing'er knows what to do, Ama relax!" ”

"Silly child, what parent in the world doesn't worry about their children? You're already too good for Amma to worry about you. ”

"Qing'er won't let Ama worry anymore in the future, Ama don't worry!" Qing'er looked at Ama and made up her mind.

Looking at such a daughter, Dong E Seventy secretly sighed in his heart, this daughter is so strong, if she marries into the royal family, she should be like a bird with broken wings, her daughter's arrogance I don't know which man can tolerate it, I really hope that there is a man who can hold his daughter in the palm of his hand like himself, love her, and give her space to fly freely like her father-in-law, and let her spread her wings and fly high.

"Qing'er, no matter what decision you make, Amma will support you! Don't be discouraged when you encounter setbacks, Amma, like your grandfather, will always stand behind you. ”

"Hmmm! Qing'er knows! ”

"Qing'er, Sifujin has sent an invitation again, are you going?" Qing'er was still leaning on his arms, and Dong E was holding her daughter like a fragile treasure. He has been thinking about this family for more than ten years, and he has been looking forward to it for more than ten years.

"This is already the third letter, there is no way to push it, and if I don't go, I'm afraid it will hurt Sifujin's face." With a wry smile on the corner of her lips, she looked at Ama helplessly, and seeing Amma's worried look, Qing'er pretended to be relaxed. "Amma, don't worry, your daughter is so good, are you afraid that no one will like it?"

Dong Eseventy listened to her words, shook his head and smiled bitterly: Where is no one loved, this stupid girl, you are loved by too many people without knowing it! You still regard yourself as Hu Qing, as a man, and you don't understand the relationship between men and women at all, and you haven't opened your mind!

Qing'er really doesn't understand the relationship between men and women, he has many masters, but no one has taught this. The entangled relationship between Songdi and Rouqin is the first 'love between men and women' he saw, but it is not happy. After the two committed suicide, Qing'er subconsciously closed her feelings. And Hu Zhongzheng, who was too nervous, after that, all the books that Qing'er wanted to read were personally screened, and only those who did not involve the love between men and women dared to order someone to take them to Qing'er's desk again.

In fact, her life circle is also very narrow, except for the people and masters in Hufu, most of the people in contact with are the shopkeepers of Hufu. First, he is young and does not understand the relationship between men and women, and second, Hu Zhongzheng deliberately protects him and does not let him have too much contact with people.

Before Hu Zhongzheng decided that Qing'er was the heir of the Hu family, in fact, he just wanted to save Qing'er's life and let his daughter die without regrets, and what followed it was the determination to make Qing'er 'happy all his life', so he raised Qing'er as a grandson, and it wasn't until Qing'er showed his business talent at the age of four that he realized that Qing'er was the only person who could inherit the Hu family's family business. And Qing'er is like a pearl, no matter how you cover it, it will release a dazzling light, which makes Hu Zhongzheng a little worried, thinking that if the incident is not secret, Qing'er's life experience will be leaked out, and it will definitely cause death, so he plans to send Qing'er overseas. He didn't advocate Qing'er to make friends, firstly, because it was inconvenient, and secondly, he was afraid that Qing'er would be psychologically hurt, so over the years, Qing'er only had two friends, Xue Yun and Shen Lan.

Hu Zhongzheng is cultivating Qing'er as a boy as an heir, and Qing'er has always shown himself in men's clothes, and he has never felt that he is any different from a man psychologically. After coming to the capital, he met the prince and the nobles of the capital when he was a fake phoenix, and he preconceived that they were all customers of his business, even if he frequently intersected with several elder brothers now, he did not understand that the thoughts of the elder brothers were no longer to use her and the wealth of the Hu family.

At this moment, the only one who can tell Qing'er what the 'love between men and women' is, is suitable for Shen Lan, and she is so far away.

Dong E's seventy years of life are inconvenient to explain to Qing'er what the relationship between men and women is, and Qing'er and his wife Ru are very angry, so they can't say these words. He secretly wondered how to talk to his father-in-law about how to make Qing'er enlightened.

This is the first time Qing'er has appeared in a place outside of her control, because it is inconvenient to carry wind, snow, thunder and lightning, so only Ke'er and Rou'er are escorted. She knew that she had gone to the appointment this time, and as soon as this case was opened, there would be no excuse to shirk the date between those Jinggui. But Sifu Jin Shengyi fist, she really can't push back.

When I arrived at the gate of the Four Belle Mansions, I found that it was unexpectedly quiet, and there was no noise at all that a party should have. You don't just invite yourself to come, do you? Habitually looking to the left, Qing'er saw Yinyu and Yinyu.

As soon as Yinyu and Yinyu came back from outside, they saw Qing'er's car parked in front of Sibeile Mansion, and they didn't believe it would be Qing'er, so Yinyu and Yinyu stopped and waited to see who got out of the car.

This is the second time Qing'er has dressed as a woman, and she is still stunningly beautiful: her hair is still coiled like the last time, decorated with pearls, bright eyes and bright teeth, bright lips and nose, smiling lips, eyebrows and eyes, wearing a pink-purple diagonal brocade top with white fur and a short skirt of the same quality to the calf, covered with a white light fur, a pair of white satin boots with pink pearls as small as rice grains to wear a pattern of roses, and the flowers and leaves are decorated with thin jade sheets.

Seeing Yinxi, he shook his head and smiled: This Qing'er is really a ghost elf!

After the kiss a few days ago, Yinyu felt that Qing'er should have a sense of belonging to him, but unfortunately, Qing'er saw that he was still the same as usual, he never knew that he would be so unsuccessful, Qing'er still went his own way, but he himself was so excited about that kiss that he couldn't sleep for a few days, and he was full of excitement to see Qing'er again at this moment, but unfortunately, after seeing Gao Fu, the housekeeper in the fourth brother's mansion, walking briskly, his smile all collapsed.

"August 27 is my birthday, the invitation has been sent to you, I will pick you up in person, you must come!" After speaking, he waved his hand to Gao Fu, the housekeeper of the Four Baylor Mansion, who asked for peace: Get up. He took the starling and left.

The Fourth Baylor House is next to the Eight Baylor House, and the Eight Baylor House is next to the Nine Elder Brothers' House. In the blink of an eye, the two of them entered the House of Babel.

Qing'er followed the housekeeper into the Four Baylor Mansion.
