Fang Zhiwu was startled by Liniang who suddenly woke up. did not answer her question, but wrestled his wrist and said to himself:

"Mother is awake, my daughter has something to tell you, I have a fancy - it hurts! Mother, what are you doing! ”

Li Niang squeezed her wrist and said sharply, "I asked you what you just said!" ”

Fang Zhiwu, who rarely saw Li Niang's face, stammered a little: "I, what do I say?" ”

"Mother is asking, have you seen this portrait?" Li Niang looked at her confused appearance, held back her impatience, let go of her wrist, sat up with her body propped up, and pulled out the paper from her hand.

Fang Zhiwu rubbed his aching wrist and pouted: "I've seen it, I've seen it in my father's study, but I still took it and threw it away." ”

"You lost it!" Li Niang's voice rose suddenly, she thought that this painting was discarded by Fang Qiao, although she was uneasy when she saw the portrait of the Lu family, but she was also a lot more down-to-earth, but when she heard Fang Zhiwu's words at this time, she had a bad pre-cold in her heart.

"That's right," Fang Zhiwu nodded before realizing that he had slipped his mouth. Hurriedly covered his mouth and said in a muffled voice: "No, it's not me, I didn't go to my father's study." ”

Although Fang Qiao's study was not specially guarded, it was true that outsiders were not allowed to enter casually, although Fang Zhiwu knew, but under curiosity, she had sneaked in a few times, and there were mostly books and other things that she was not interested in, because she hadn't touched them a few times before, and she had not been discovered.

Fang Zhiwu was raised by Li Niang, how could she not tell whether she was telling the truth or telling a lie, so she took a deep breath at the moment, tried her to be as kind as possible, pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed, took the hand she had just pinched and hurt by herself, and said softly while rubbing it:

"Xiao Wu, are you rummaging through your father's things? If he finds you sneaking into the study to play, he will definitely punish you for copying books for a few days. ”

When Fang Zhiwu heard that he was going to copy the book, he hurriedly put down the hand that covered his mouth and said, "Mother, don't tell your father." ”

"Okay, mother doesn't say, then you tell your mother, what are you doing in your father's study?"

Fang Zhiwu squeaked and said: "A few days ago, I had tea with Miss Du and them, and a Miss Chen brought a Tao inkstone to show off, and everyone praised the inkstone as good." I remember the last time someone gave my father a good inkstone, I secretly went to my father's study to find it......"

Li Niang knew that she loved to show off her personality, and she didn't reprimand her in a hurry to ask about it, but handed her the portrait of the Lu family in her hand and continued to ask, "Then what's going on with this portrait?" ”

"Oh, that's when I was looking for something, I turned it out of a box behind the bookshelf," Speaking of this, Fang Zhiwu suddenly came to her senses, "Mother is so hard, Dad still hides the portrait of the woman next to me, I was angry for a while, so I rubbed it and threw it away, I lost my father's things for you, you have to help me think of ideas, I don't want to copy books." ”

She looked at Li Niang, looking triumphant, in fact, when she lost this portrait, she didn't find the inkstone, and she was upset and did it, where was it for her mother. Saying this now, it's just to ask Liniang to help her cover up and prevent Fang Qiao from finding out about her messing into the study.

"Well, let my mother think about it." Li Niang closed her eyes and leaned against the head of the bed, her heart fell into chaos, and a thought kept flashing in her mind: she was not dead... She didn't die......

"But why did this painting come to you," Fang Zhiwu whispered suspiciously, and did not notice her mother's abnormality, but grabbed her arm with her backhand, and said coquettishly: "Mother, let me tell you, I saw a set of jewelry in the shop in the Eastern Metropolis today, which is very beautiful, especially the pair of hairpins ......."

Li Niang Ren Fang danced with great interest about the appearance of that set of jewelry, but her thoughts had already drifted away:

When she was twelve years old, she changed her name in the world, and overnight, her parents and brothers were exiled, she was taken away, changed her name, changed from a young lady to a slave, and the high-rise mansion compound was still the same, but it was no longer her home.

It was actually easy to learn to grovel, and she lived in the Luoyang Courtyard for four years, not even knowing who the master was, until she was sixteen years old, and another girl in the Courtyard, was loaded into a carriage and drove all the way to Chang'an.

Since the father's conviction. At that time, she returned to Chang'an City for the first time, although it was a gift, but she was still full of joy, unlike the silence of the other girl in the car, she was both shy and a little yearning, just because the man she had seen at the banquet was gentle, handsome, and literate, and almost reached all the fantasies in the woman's heart.

But soon she knew she was wrong, and she didn't see him again for four months, and she asked when the man in the courtyard would come, but she always got a smile of unknown meaning. In addition to not having to grovel, there was no difference from the previous days, just changed from one courtyard to another, but the girl named Yun Niang was much more cheerful than when she came, and there was always a smile on her bright face, which made her feel upset when she saw it.

The housekeeper in the annex is very rigid and never lets them go out. But she was bored for too long, and finally bought a maid, and went out of the courtyard through the small door purchased by the next person, Chang'an City was as lively as she remembered, she wore her favorite skirt, pretended to be Miss Jingzhong, and walked around Chang'an with the maid.

coaxed the maid to take her to the vicinity of the man's house, that is, that day, so that she could see her heart clearly, and see clearly what she wanted.

The man who kept her awake at night. With a warm smile on her face that she had never seen before, she led a woman with clouds and temples and gorgeous clothes, and pulled a boy with red lips and white teeth out of the courtyard of the mansion, he carefully carried the children into the carriage, ready to help the woman, but she smiled and pushed away the horse and pointed to the side, he stared at her smile for a moment, and finally did not know what to say, and was lightly punched on the shoulder by the woman.

The two of them quarreled for a moment by the car, and then he lifted her by the waist and placed her on the horse, intending to ride with her, but the woman delicately pinched the horse's belly, leaving him empty, and the woman drove away on the horse, and he hurriedly got on the other horse and chased her, and the backs of the two of them, together with the carriage carrying the two children, finally disappeared from her sight.

This scene was forever imprinted in her mind, that day she went back to the courtyard in a daze, slept for two days in a row, and when she woke up again, she already knew that she was different.

When she could not see the man, she began to knock on him all over the courtyard, and she began to embankment Yun Niang, who made her a woman so beautiful that she was the closest imaginary enemy at that time, except for the unattainable woman.

She didn't have a long embankment Yun Niang, one night, a foreigner came to the courtyard, she was gossiping with Yun Niang, and when she heard the next person come to report, she chose to avoid it, but Yun Niang was curious to see, that is, because of this curiosity. Ended up ruining her.

Yun Niang was diagnosed as pregnant two months later, and the child in her womb was the flesh and blood of King An, a secret that only a few people knew, and she was one of them.

After the man got the news, she finally got the first chance to get close to him, she didn't want to rush in at first, just quietly accompanied him to drink, but the wine that night seemed too easily drunk, drunk in a daze, and when she woke up, she had really become his woman.

Looking at the shocked expression of the man who woke up, she shrank with joy and began to cry, but the man didn't even comfort her, and put on his clothes and left in some despair, and after he left, she really began to cry.

But it seemed that God was helping her, and only that one accident made her pregnant.

The first to know the news was the old lady, she directly took her to the house with Yun Niang, and saw the woman again, still with cloud temples and gorgeous clothes, but after seeing her and Yun Niang's slightly protruding lower abdomen, that graceful face suddenly turned pale, that color, it was really beautiful!

"Mother! Mother? Did you hear me speak, what are you laughing at? Fang Zhiwu stretched out his hand and pushed Li Niang, who fell into the memory.

Li Niang opened her eyes, she had lost her previous confusion, she smiled, and said softly: "Xiao Wu, I'm afraid that the matter of this portrait can't be hidden from your father, you honestly tell him that you took it, and my mother will help you say good things and don't let him punish you, okay?" ”

"Huh? I don't want to. Fang Zhiwu twisted his head and refused to live or die.

"Xiao Wu, didn't you say that you want to buy jewelry, if you listen to your mother, wait for lunch, your mother will buy it with you, if you don't want to tell the truth to your father, sooner or later he will find out that you took his things, and he will also punish you for copying books."

Li Niang explained the two consequences of obedience and disobedience very clearly, and after weighing the pros and cons, Fang Zhiwu said a little reluctantly:

"Okay."

Li Niang stretched out her hand to tidy up the hem of her somewhat messy skirt, "You go to the dining room first, and then go over after my mother changes her clothes." ”

After Fang Zhiwu left, Li Niang raised the portrait on the quilt again, stared at the woman on the painting, and whispered:

"This is me... In exchange, no one will want to take away ......"

Chang'an City Guozijian

After the bell rang, Yi Yu walked away from the school house with the bookbag in his arms, Du He watched her petite back disappear around the corner of the door, although she was curious about what "whispers" she said in the ear of Princess Gaoyang in the morning, but did not call him out, but carried the bookbag and walked to the last row of Changsun Xian.

Yi Yu and Lu Zhi did not eat at Ganweiju at noon as usual, but got into the carriage parked at the back door of the school dormitory and drove all the way back to Guiyifang, which was still nearly two hours away from the afternoon class, just enough for them to go back to eat with the Lu family and rest for a while.

"You ate a snack, do you still have to eat later, if you eat cold this day, you won't be afraid of stomach trouble." Lu Zhi took out a booklet from his bookbag and glanced at the jade that was peeling the oiled paper bag and eating the strawberry roll.

"Hmm..."Yu swallowed what was in her mouth, "My mother specially made it for me, of course I have to finish eating, and I blame the unlucky princess, otherwise where can I use it to eat cold at this time, it is still warm in the morning." ”
