After returning from the Yong'an Hou Mansion, on the second day, Hua Rong pretended to be a man and went to the cloth village with Zhou Lin to select cloth.

Zhou Lin's driving skills are very good, and he doesn't feel any bumps in the car.

The last time he came to the store, Hua Rong was also dressed as a man, he didn't seem to know that Hua Rong was a woman, he was talking all the way, and it was not embarrassing for the two to stay alone.

Hua Rong quietly asked some details.

Although Zhou Lin's wife died in childbirth, she left a very lovely daughter, looking at her daughter every day, Zhou Lin's feelings for his deceased wife are still very deep, and he has no plans to remarry.

Zhou Lin's mother is also a very kind person, after her daughter-in-law had a difficult birth, she always shed tears, fell with eye diseases, and now she can no longer see normally.

Hua Rong felt a little sorry after hearing this, and asked tentatively: "If there is a woman who wants to marry Brother Zhou for unavoidable reasons, help Brother Zhou raise a daughter, serve her mother, and be a husband and wife in name only, is Brother Zhou willing?" ”

"How can there be such a good thing in this world?" Zhou Lin looked at the front intently, only feeling that Hua Rong was talking about a dream, "Even if the girl can't help herself, she will want to have a child of her own, what is the matter with me?" ”

Hua Rong asked: "What if that girl has taken Juezi soup and can't have children?" ”

Zhou Lin paused, and suddenly turned his head to stare at Hua Rong: "Who is so lacking in virtue that he actually forces other girls to drink Juezi soup?" I heard that this thing is very harmful to the woman's body, why don't you report this kind of thing directly to the official? ”

In the end, Zhou Lin's expression was a little angry, as if Hua Rong was a bad guy who deliberately shielded and aided the abuse.

He didn't doubt that the girl was willing to fall to this point, and subconsciously thought that the girl was forced to be helpless and an innocent victim.

Hua Rong's heart swelled with warmth, and all the uncertainty disappeared at this moment.

She is willing to partner with someone like Zhou Lin for the rest of her life.

After picking out the cloth, on the way back, Huarong asked Zhou Lin's address, changed into women's clothes on the second day, and brought gifts to visit.

Zhou's mother's eyes couldn't see clearly, and it was a little girl who had just reached her knees when she opened the door.

The little girl followed her mother, she was very well-behaved, her eyes were big and round, and she was timid and innocent.

Zhou Lin was cooking, came out of the kitchen, and when he saw the woman dressed up with Huarong, he was stunned, but it was Zhou's mother who reminded him that he remembered to let Huarong into the house.

After eating, Zhou Lin sent Huarong out and asked solemnly: "The girl who drank the Juezi soup that the owner said yesterday is herself?" ”

"Brother Zhou's guess is right, I was raised by a prostitute, I was ransomed from Fengyue Building when I was ten years old, and later signed a death deed and sold myself to Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion, and now I am the third young master of Zhongyong Mansion's house, this shop is the compensation given to me by Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion, and after a while, Mrs. Zhongyong will help me get rid of my nationality, and I can get married."

Hua Rong briefly introduced her situation, she was very satisfied with Zhou Lin, and it depended on whether people were willing to accept her.

Zhou Lin suddenly realized, no wonder she wanted to drink the soup of avoiding children, this kind of high-ranking maid was indeed not allowed to give birth to the heirs of the master.

"I heard that the third young master of Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion dotes on the maid beside him very much, is that maid you?"

Hua Rong nodded, it was difficult to say too clearly, and only said: "The third young master is indeed very good to me, but it is limited to this, Mrs. has already seen the marriage of the third young master." ”

This also explains why Hua Rong is in such a hurry to find someone to marry.

Zhou Lin thought about it seriously, and after a while he said, "I've only seen the girl three times, I can't make a rash decision, can the girl give me some time to think about it?" ”

Without waiting for Hua Rong to speak, Zhou Lin explained: "I definitely don't mean to look down on the girl, but this is a major event in life after all, even if it is just a nominal husband and wife, you must be cautious, I am a man, I can't suffer a loss, the girl can test me more." ”

Zhou Lin is in his early thirties, married and has a daughter, and he is much calmer than Hua Rong, like a solid and reliable big brother.

Hua Rong bent her eyes and said softly, "Okay, then let's get along for a while." "Look at Shula

After Hua Rong went back, she made a set of summer clothes for the little girl and Zhou's mother, Zhou Lin couldn't help it, and also gave Hua Rong a box of rouge.

In this way, the two quickly became acquainted, and the birthday banquet of Uncle Zhong Yong also came unconsciously.

Jiang Yunfei temporarily assumed the post of commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and was not in a hurry to go to Yuanfeng County, Jiang Yunxiao was made a Zhonglang general from the common people, and Jiang Yunyang also received a reward at the Chinese New Year's Eve Palace banquet.

The son is promising, and it is rare to be around, and the fiftieth birthday of Uncle Zhong Yong is very grand.

Hua Rong doesn't have to help with the banquet now, and she is not qualified to go to the banquet, and she stays at the ready-to-wear shop as usual on the day of the birthday banquet.

Near noon, the government sent someone to invite him.

Today, the sun was a little hot, and Hua Rong changed into a peach-pink summer dress, drew her eyebrows, and smeared the rouge sent by Lin last week before going out.

The gate is to welcome distinguished guests, and Hua Rong enters the house from the small gate on the southwest side, and is led all the way to the back garden.

Today's male and female dependents are divided, the back garden is sitting all female dependents, the three young masters in the house have not yet married, the unmarried young ladies of the appropriate age in each house are here, and those who want to marry the Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion are all deliberately dressed up, looking around, they are all pretty and beautiful, and they are more beautiful than the flowers in the garden.

However, no matter how delicate these girls are, they can't hide the dignity of the crown princess.

Hua Rong quickly looked around, then lowered her head and saluted: "Slave Hua Rong has seen the crown princess." ”

Yin's anger has not subsided, and he doesn't want Hua Rong to show up on this occasion, but Li Xiangling told the crown princess that Hua Rong had saved her in the palace before, and the crown princess wanted to summon Hua Rong, and the Yin family couldn't stop her.

The crown princess asked Hua Rong to raise her head, praised her for her good looks, and casually withdrew the gold and jade bracelet on her wrist to reward Hua Rong.

The noble daughter of the family in the garden accompanied the princess for a long time, and she didn't get any benefits, and she was rewarded as soon as she came, and someone couldn't help but remind: "This maid is indeed not bad, but the courtiers heard that her background is not good, I'm afraid I can't afford the reward of the princess." ”

It was Miss Qian who was speechless on the day of the outing.

The crown princess put the bracelet on Hua Rong's hand before she looked at Miss Qian, and said with a warm smile: "It is said that heroes don't ask where they come from, and the ancestors of the Jiang family were once reckless." ”

After the crown princess died to the prince, her tone was raised, and she smiled slightly, which was graceful and luxurious, and faintly had the demeanor of the mother of the country.

Miss Qian choked for a moment, and just wanted to argue, but heard the princess say again: "This servant has made a contribution to the suppression of bandits in Qinglong Mountain, and he took action in time to avoid a mess on the day when the prince took the concubine, so alert and intelligent, much better than the concubine's own sister." ”

Li Xiangling retorted coquettishly, the crown princess blamed her a few words, and all the ladies couldn't help laughing, without studying the princess's words in detail, Wei Mingxuan only felt shocked.

Is it true that the crown princess treated her so differently because this cheap maid helped Li Xiangling?
