Chapter 161: The Woman Who Was Beaten
A sea blue night pearl that exudes translucent fluorescent light, almost as big as a tea cup, can be called rare in the world, people only get close, they feel a cool breath, very comfortable, there is no artificially added fragrance, and there is no spice flavor composed of various floral fragrances, which is natural.
"I'm afraid the little girl can't afford this."
It's not that I can't afford it, there are countless priceless treasures in the Nangong Marquis Mansion, but this King Rong is afraid that the drunkard doesn't mean to drink.
"The county lord has a noble status, a pearl of the night, only for the county lord to enjoy."
"The minister thanked the prince for the little girl."
It is too obvious to refuse, King Rong and the emperor can't offend either side, otherwise once the fight starts, I'm afraid that the child will still be hurt.
"Now that the gift has been delivered, this king will not bother the Hou Ye and say goodbye." King Rong threw stones and asked for directions, knowing that he would definitely not see Nangong Yu today.
"Congratulations to the prince."
Waiting for King Rong to walk away, Nangong Hou looked at the night pearl with a solemn expression, not knowing if Nangong Yu could take these.
"Dad, King Rong, this is ......"
Nangong Hou waved his hand, "Take care of your sister." β
ββ¦β¦ Promise. β
After Nangong Yu sent her mother to the bedroom, she wandered around the courtyard alone, and she never finished this huge Nangong Hou Mansion.
The hibiscus in the pond is almost grateful, the begonias are blooming proudly, and the peony flowers in the yard can be seen everywhere, red, rose, white, and yellow...... Nangong Yu found out that she liked peony very much, as well as orange roses and canna......
It's just that she didn't know that Nangong Yu liked peony very much in the past, and Mrs. Nangong ordered people to plant peonies in Nangong Hou's Mansion, and even the personal maid was named "peony".
The so-called deep love is probably like this.
The more you go inside, the more magnificent and exquisite the layout is not as grand as the front, too, that big family doesn't have a backyard, it is estimated that some melons, fruits and grains are placed here.
Listening to Hui Qi, the layout of the Hou Mansion is that the more lowly people live closer to the backyard.
The furnishings in the backyard are slightly outdated, if Nangong Yu hadn't experienced the extravagance and prosperity of the Hou Mansion, she was afraid that such a courtyard would also surprise her.
"Shoot you, shoot you......"
A sharp and noisy voice came, and Nangong Yu followed the sound.
Stopping at the door of a courtyard, it seems to be a place like a back kitchen, because there are a lot of vegetables in the yard, and clothes are hanging on the shelves, so it should be a place for people to live.
A woman of about thirty years old was holding a bamboo pole and beating a girl about thirteen or fourteen years old. Nangong Yu didn't have time to think about it, so she just let her stop.
Usually in the front yard, except for a few masters who send down people, no one in charge dares to beat people, or they are punished according to the rules of the Hou Mansion.
Since Nangong Yu came, her courtyard is the most free and loose courtyard in the entire Hou Mansion, as if no one cares, and she forgot to salute when she saw Mrs. Nangong several times.
Hearing Nangong Yu's voice, the woman who looked a little snarky stopped and looked at Nangong Yu with an inquiring gaze.
I saw her long skirt swaying to the ground, big sleeves fluttering, and layers of ribbons, her identity must be very noble, but the master of Nangong Hou's Mansion would never come here.
"Who are you?" She still put down the bamboo pole in her hand, after so many years in the Hou Mansion, this bit of eyesight is still there.
"I'm Nangong Yu." She doesn't beat around the bush either.
"Ahh Almost everyone in the courtyard knelt down and kowtowed, "Slaves and maids pay a visit to the eldest lady." β
Nangong Yu frowned and walked in, ignoring the others, looking at the girl who was beaten, she suddenly thought of her former self, and she would also be beaten like this, calling every day unacceptable, and the earth and earth not spiritual.
"What's your name? Why did she hit you? Nangong Yu squatted down, and his voice was very gentle.
She saw that this girl was wearing a plain green dress, very slender, but when she raised her eyes to look at her, she saw the agility in her eyes, the eyebrows were very beautiful, the bridge of her nose was high, her eyes were big, and there were bruises at the corners of her eyes and mouth.
But it doesn't hinder her beauty at all, quite exotic beauty.
She just looked at Nangong Yu timidly, lowered her head again, and retracted her hand, Nangong Yu gently held her hand, only to find that her hand was also scarred, new and old, and there was a scar on her wrist, which seemed to be a scar left by a burn, like a crescent shape, but it was still not good-looking.
"Why don't you speak."
The woman who had just beaten someone was full of convulsions, "You dead girl, you dare not answer the eldest lady's question, you ......"
"Shut up, when will it be your turn for me to interject."
Nangong Yu saw that she was covered with scars, and witnessed the scene of this woman beating people just now, and now she was still like this, so she was naturally furious.
"Slave maid should die, slave maid should die...... The woman pounded her head like garlic, and Nangong Yu was too lazy to take care of it.
"Come, get up." She pulled the girl up, and felt that she was too thin, so she helped her to the side and sat down.
"It's okay, no one will bully you anymore." Maybe Nangong Yu saw her former self in that girl, how she longed for someone to pass by and help her at that time......
"Where do you live? I'll send you back to change your clothes and check your wound again. Nangong Yu still spoke softly.
The girl finally raised her head to look at Nangong Yu, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, "hiss......" She gasped, and the corners of her mouth looked like a little blood oozing out.
"Okay, stop talking," Nangong Yu hurriedly asked her to stop and turned around, "You, take me to where she lives." β
"No."
Nangong Yu followed the beating woman into a room, looking at the furnishings, there should be only one person, the room is quite large, and then looking at the other rooms in the courtyard, there are at least three or four people.
This is strange, a person can live in a house, at least should be the steward of this courtyard, how can she be beaten by someone, and no one can help her?
"Go get the medicine."
"No."
Nangong Yu helped the girl sit down, and then took out a change of clothes in the cabinet by herself, and hurriedly helped her change them.
After changing her clothes and wiping the medicine, Nangong Yu saw that she had scars on her back and legs and arms, but fortunately she didn't hurt the vital point.
"Does it still hurt?"
Shake oneβs head.
"Are you hungry?"
looked at her timidly.
"Someone."
The door was immediately pushed open, and the woman who had beaten her just now had a smile on her face, "Miss, the slave has been waiting here, what do you command?" β
"Prepare something to eat."
was stunned, "The eldest lady wants to eat here?" β
"There's a lot of nonsense, so if you want to prepare, you can prepare."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"Wait."
"What else does the eldest lady command?"
"What's your name?"
"Slave Wufeng."
"Alright, let's go down."
