Chapter XX Introduction

Ju Yang, the shopkeeper of Nuanxiang Pavilion, personally went to the gate of Gaofu with rouge gouache, and he came to deliver the goods.

Gao Li, the eldest lady of Gaofu, heard the maid Ziyu say that the second lady went to the Warm Fragrance Pavilion to buy some rouge gouache, and she has dressed herself up very beautifully in recent days, and Gao Li didn't want to be inferior to her, so she went to the Warm Fragrance Pavilion to buy a lot of rouge gouache.

As soon as Ju Yang heard that it was the eldest lady of Gaofu, he warmly welcomed him and said that it would be delivered to the door.

Of course, Gao Li happily accepted, because Nuan Xiangge never delivered goods to the door, and used to pick them up by himself, so if he could get the service of home delivery, how much face would he have.

Ju Yang carried the goods at the gate of Gaofu for a long time before knocking on the door.

Steward Cao of Gaofu took Ju Yang all the way into the backyard and went straight to Gaoli's Cloud Appreciation Pavilion.

As soon as the second lady who was quiet in her courtyard heard Mother Lin say, she had just met the shopkeeper of Nuanxiang Pavilion in the mansion and personally sent rouge to the eldest lady.

As soon as the second lady heard the shopkeeper of Nuanxiang Pavilion, her face became unnatural, her palms were sweating, and she asked in a sloppy voice, "That-the shopkeeper is here to send rouge?" ”

Mother Lin nodded and said, "The shopkeeper of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion never delivers the goods in person, what kind of luck did the eldest lady get this time."

The second lady's hand on her lap tugged at her skirt tightly, and she was afraid.

A scene from many years ago appeared in my mind -

Young Ju Yang stood in front of her and said to her, "Let me take care of you, let me be the father of the child." ”

The young Jiang Keyu was full of tears, turned his back to him, and pleaded coldly, "I only ask you to leave my sight, leave my life, please never appear in front of me again, I don't deserve it." ”

Ju Yang was very sad, "No, I don't care about that. ”

"But I care." Jiang Keyu's tone was firm, and she turned her head, "Ju Yang, can you understand, when I see you, I will think of that night, do you understand?" ”

The second lady came back to her senses, and the words of those years were like yesterday.

Ju Yang obviously promised her, no longer appeared in front of her, no longer approached her, but now what is this doing, just to deliver goods?

The second lady did not believe it.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

I knew in my heart that the eldest lady did not like me, the daughter of the concubine, very much, and my father was also full of indifference.

I don't know if it was because of what happened two years ago that my father treated me like this, because I can't think of anything else other than that. Even if there was anything that upset my father, I can't remember.

They were all people who didn't want to see me, so I had to show my father that every day I would eat in my own courtyard, and no longer go to the big table in the hall, but what I didn't expect was that my father agreed, and he agreed.

I sneered indifferently, is this really my home?

Why don't I feel the warmth of home at all?

If I knew that it was such a home, I would rather stay in Ji Yu's Mengxian Residence and be a maid there.

But I felt that my thoughts were funny, and even Ji Yu didn't miss me.

In Yangcheng, he knew that I was Miss Gaofu, and he must have known that I would return to Pingcheng, and he would not come to see me until now.

He and I really just met each other.

I still remember that day in his room, I saw the painting and calligraphy, and the woman in the painting was very beautiful.

Not wanting to ponder so much anymore, I picked up my chopsticks and ate the meal delivered from the kitchen in the house by myself.

The taste of the food in the house was very unto my taste, so I barely ate a few bites and asked Zilan to withdraw.

Gao Shouwen came to my courtyard with a woman, and as soon as the woman saw me, she knelt down on her knees, kowtowed in front of me, and cried, "Second Miss, it's good that you're okay." ”

Gao Shouwen saw that I was confused, and said with a smile, "Rong'er's maid Yinglin." ”

Ying Lin? Not missing with me, she's back.

Although I don't remember her anymore, this is the first time I saw her, I had a good impression of her and hurriedly helped her up.

Ying Lin looked at me carefully, crying and laughing, "Second Miss is fine, even if the slave maid loses this life, it is nothing." ”

I reached out to wipe the tears from her face, "It's good if you come back, or God will punish me." ”

Ying Lin hurriedly said, "Miss can't say such a thing. ”

Yinglin came back, my Qiushui House was a little more lively, and it was no longer just me and Zilan.

When the evening breeze was cool, the three of us sat on the railing under the porch and listened to Yinglin talk about her future events.

She said that after the carriage overturned, she and I kept running towards the mountains and forests, and she accidentally got into a fall and told me to leave her alone and run by myself.

Seeing that those people were about to catch up, I started and ran away, ignoring her. She wanted to drag them down with her life so that I could survive.

She said that she was stabbed by those people a few times, thinking that she was dead, and when she woke up, she was not dead, and it was a chivalrous man who saved her.

The knight lived in the deep mountains and old forests, and she kept recuperating in the knight's hut until she was healed before going down the mountain. She went all the way back to Pingcheng without stopping, and after entering the city gate, she met the eldest young master who was on the street, and only then did she know that I was still alive and well.

Although I don't have any impression of Yinglin's story about the robbery that day, I feel very indebted to her for being able to do this to me. I think treat her well in the future, and if there is mine, there will be hers.

Yinglin returned home, and her father didn't ask about the events of that day in person, just asked her to stay by my side in the future.

My father really has an attitude, that is, it doesn't seem to matter to him.

I sometimes really wonder if I'm his daughter, if it's the Gao family.

If so, why be so indifferent.

If not, what did the Gao family do when they got me back.

In the middle of the night, I could not sleep, and my autumn water dwelling was as quiet as stagnant water.

I lay on the bed and couldn't sleep, got up, put on my cloak, pushed open the door and walked out into the courtyard.

Before I could take a few steps, someone suddenly covered my mouth from behind, I wanted to struggle, I wanted to scream, and the person covered me even harder.

"Don't be silent, it's me." A somewhat familiar male voice came from behind him.

I didn't call again, and after he relaxed his hand, I turned my head and realized that it was him, Yuan Gongzi.

I'm surprised, he appeared in the Gao Mansion so late, what's going on in my courtyard?

I frowned, my face full of confusion.

He put his arms around my waist and said with a smile, "Take you out." ”

Before I could say anything, he leaped over the wall with my body around me and landed steadily outside the high mansion wall.

I pushed him away, a little angry, "What are you doing!" ”

"Seeing that you can't sleep, I'll take you out to breathe." He laughed.

I really don't understand, how can he know that I can't sleep in the middle of the night, and how can he know where my house is, even if he knows Gaofu, it is impossible to know which courtyard I live in?

This man followed me and investigated me.

His behavior made me despise it.

I turned around and didn't bother to pay attention to him, "Send me in!" I said coldly.

He turned to me and looked at me affectionately, "Don't want to see me? ”

I glared at him and didn't answer.

"But I want to see you, and I think about it every night and every night." He said it seriously.

I looked at him in person, and sometimes he really didn't make me understand. His words, his expressions, are not the same from time to time.

Sometimes I think he's humorous, sometimes I'm honest.

His temperament is incomprehensible.

That day, outside Hongyan Tower, when Ji Yu and I walked out, I still remember Yuan Gongzi's demeanor, which was a deep and cold expression.

And at this time, it was like a child.

"Let's go, I'll take you to eat wontons." He pursed his lips and smiled.

I stared at his playful expression, and the corners of my mouth twitched, "How can there be a dull wonton to eat in the middle of the night?" ”

He grabbed my hand, "Just follow me." ”

I was dragged by him to a roadside stall on West Street. The stall was rudimentary, just a few tables under a cloth canopy.

The stall owner enthusiastically served us steaming wontons.

I just looked at it and didn't move, Yuan Gongzi had already eaten, and when he saw that I was stunned, he persuaded, "It's delicious, try it." ”

I was so attracted that I picked up the spoon and took a bite, which was good.

Yuan Gongzi looked at me with a smile, "I've never eaten at this stall." ”

I shook my head.

At this time, the stall owner suddenly said, "The girl came to eat ten years ago, and the old man remembers it very clearly. ”

I looked at the stall owner in a daze, he frowned and thought, "The girl's face hasn't changed at all in the past ten years, but the old man is a lot older, and the girl doesn't know the old man." ”

Before I could ask questions, Yuan Gongzi said confusedly, "Uncle is the wrong person, Rong'er was a child ten years ago, how can it be compared with her current appearance!" ”

The old man squinted at me, a little unsure, "Maybe the old man is wrong." ”

Yuan Gongzi smiled, "I'll just say, how could I have seen Rong'er what she is now ten years ago." ”

I smiled and laughed, didn't think about the old man's words anymore, and continued to eat wontons with Yuan Gongzi.
