"Madame!"

Aunt Kang exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly rushed over to support Gu Xian.

The two middle-aged women supported each other, their wide sleeves inadvertently slipped to their elbows, and their arms were intertwined with new and old injuries, which showed that they didn't know how many beatings they had received over the years.

Bae Daozhu stared at her gloomy and angry father as if she were staring at a stranger.

When he was young, the family was prosperous, and his father was also elegant and gentle, never disliked his mother and did not give birth to a son, let alone beat his wife and daughter.

But since the defeat of the family and the addiction to gambling, he is like a different person, punching and kicking his wife and daughter if he is not happy, and if he is angry outside, he will beat and scold them when he comes back to vent his anger.

What a cowardly, despicable man!

Pei Daozhu gritted his teeth with hatred.

When she saw that Pei Lizhi was going to beat A-Niang, her heart couldn't help but hurt.

She forcibly held back her hatred, Pear Blossom knelt on the ground with rain, and pitifully grabbed Pei Lizhi's robe: "Father, don't blame A-Niang, it's all daughters who are not good, and daughters have shamed you...... The daughter is willing to be punished! ”

This move fell in Pei Lizhi's eyes, which was a manifestation of acquaintance and well-behaved.

He was satisfied, as if he had regained his dignity: "Go and kneel outside, you are not allowed to eat tonight." ”

Gu Xian's face was full of tears, and she was about to persuade when Pei Daozhu pulled her sleeve.

What is the use of persuasion, it is just another beating.

She walked out into the porch and knelt down quietly.

The rain drifted into the porch, wetting her red pomegranate dress, and her black sideburns stuck to her pale cheeks, making her even more despondent and pitiful.

She lifted her long curled eyelashes and looked out into the hall.

The hall was dimly lit.

My father sat there, not eating, but drinking glass after glass as if he were venting.

The family sat around for dinner, which should have been a warm reunion, but the atmosphere in her house was extremely cold and tense, and she could only hear the sound of strong wine entering her throat and a word or two of abuse from men from time to time.

Together, they became her most feared memories of all these years.

It seems that the whole family will rot in this cold and damp ancestral house.

She quietly clenched her hands: "You can't be afraid, you have to climb up......"

The dream of the ruined family reminded her all the time that she shouldn't accept her fate and couldn't accept her fate, no matter what, she has to climb up, she wants to marry into the high gate, use the power of the high gate, and protect Ah Niang and them......

"Yo, what's the fuss, why did Ananda kneel at the door?"

A shrill laugh suddenly rang out.

Pei Daozhu looked back.

The maids carried lanterns and paper umbrellas, and the middle-aged women who were held by their stars gave birth to apricot eyes and peach cheeks.

The girl who followed the woman, although her appearance was ordinary, she was dressed delicately and noblely, and her almond eyes glanced at her, and she couldn't help but reveal a little sarcastic smile.

Pei Daozhu clenched his hands.

It's my aunt and cousin.

They must have come for her......

When Pei Lizhi saw them, his face was immediately full of red light, and he greeted them in person: "On this rainy day, why is my sister here?" Yo, we have grown taller again, and our appearance and demeanor are even better! ”

The girl smiled and bowed: "Uncle praises." ”

The woman laughed and said, "What does Brother always praise her for?" I didn't have to make her proud. ”

She looked at Pei Daozhu meaningfully: "If you talk about appearance, our Ananda is beautiful when she looks good, and she can't even look down on the young talents I introduced to her, I really don't know what kind of handsome man I want to marry." Brother, it's not that I'm ruthless as an aunt, I really can't control your daughter's marriage, in the future, ask her to look for Lang Jun by herself! ”

She spoke in a weird way.

Pei Daozhu said secretly, she has never begged her to take care of it.

What's more, the "young talent" she introduced, her family background, appearance, talent, and character are useless, and she doesn't know which corner of the crooked melon and cracked jujube she collected, introducing this kind of Lang Jun, as if she still owes her a lot of favors.

Pei Lizhi smiled: "I have taught Ananda a hard lesson. Ananda, why don't you confess your aunt's mistake? In the future, your sisters' marriages will depend on your aunt! ”

Pei Daozhu is very unconvinced, but he is also very aware of current affairs.

She lowered her head respectfully: "It's Ananda's eyes that are above the top." The young talent introduced by my aunt is really good, and I hope that my cousin can marry such a young talent in the future. ”

The girl was instantly furious: "Pei Daozhu, what do you mean-"

Before he finished speaking, the woman pulled the sleeve of his shirt.

The girl snorted softly and turned her head away unhappily.

The woman entered the hall and sat down, and took out two silver tickets from her sleeve: "Brother knows, since my father left, my life in the Wei family has not been easy. This is a little silver ticket I saved, not much, you take it. ”

Pei Lizhi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took it: "How embarrassing is this......

The woman covered her lips and smiled, her gaze swept over Pei Daozhu again.

She said softly: "I heard that Ananda has fallen into the eyes of Old Madam Xiao, and she will go to Jinliang Garden tomorrow to live?" ”

Pei Lizhi rubbed the silver ticket and nodded with a smile: "There is such a thing." ”

The smile on the woman's face grew stronger.

She took her daughter's hand: "Chaolu has just finished learning embroidery recently, and she is idle in the house, I thought, it is better to let her go to Jinliang Garden with Ananda to live, she is a sister, and she will take good care of Ananda." ”

Her daughter Wei Chao showed up shyly.

She heard that Xiao Jiajiulang had recently returned to Jiankang.

The little sisters who participated in the Xiao Mansion Flower Banquet today all said that Xiao Jiajiulang was born very handsome, and the wind god Xiu Che Bao contained light, and he was the most worthy of marrying Langjun in the world.

She...... I want to get married, too.

Her mother was also very approving of her marrying Xiao Jiajiulang, so she specially came to Pei Daozhu for her, if she could follow Pei Daozhu to Jinliang Garden, then she would be able to meet Xiao Jiajiulang......

She fluttered her cheeks and looked at Pei Lizhi with a smile: "Uncle, I want to go." ”

Pei Lizhi twisted the silver ticket, very bold: "What's so difficult about this?" Ananda must be willing, isn't she? ”

Pei Daozhu was silent.

She didn't like her aunt or her cousin.

Looking at my cousin's eyes shining, you can know what she is calculating.

If it was Xiao Jiajiulang, who was as calculating as her, wouldn't she find a rival for herself in vain?

She's not stupid.

When she did not speak, the woman went over and lifted her up herself.

She led Pei Daozhu into the hall and lifted the cage held by the maidservant: "Knowing that Ananda doesn't have a new dress, my aunt has specially prepared a few for you, do you like it?" Tomorrow, if you wear it to Jinliang Garden, you will definitely be envied by all the girls. ”

Pei Daozhu looked at it and almost smiled.

What's in the cage?

All kinds of brown and earthy sauce-colored skirts, not to mention the old-fashioned color, and the size is not suitable for you.

Auntie, this is to use her to set off my cousin.

But she Pei Daozhu only loves to make safflowers, so she doesn't want to be a green leaf that sets off others.

Merely......

She glanced at her cousin, who was looking forward to it.

It's okay to take your cousin with you.

The girls in Jiankang City don't like to play with her, and those Langjun still think that there is something wrong with her, bring her cousin, and she can perform the drama of sisters loving each other in public.

After weighing the pros and cons, she said softly: "Aunt is too polite, I like my cousin very much." This time I went to stay in Jinliangyuan with my cousin, it will definitely be fun. ”
