Although Cui'e's old mother is old and decrepit, but the situation has not diminished, but in her heart, she may have cared too much about her appearance, resulting in too heavy fat powder, and under the bright sun, her big face is like a paper man tied to paper, looking very weird and white. She saw Lu Yingchen open the door, and said with a happy face: "Good girl, my good daughter, I finally saw you, if it weren't for the absence of the god of your family, I wouldn't have been able to set foot in a three-mile radius of your house." ”

She waved a handkerchief in her hand, and the "seductive laughter" that she had practiced with laughter all year round sounded very harsh to Lu Yingchen. The thing she hates most about Cui'e is that she can act very familiar with people at any time and place, and she can laugh like this heartlessly, should she be sad or what, in short, Lu Yingchen is very disgusted.

Lu Yingchen said: "I am no longer your 'daughter', just say anything about it, and I will not be respectful if I have nothing to do." ”

Cui'e quickly skimmed the big-bellied, meaty-faced shopkeeper on the side, the two of them danced for a while, you poked me and I stabbed you, as if they were shirking each other and letting each other speak. In the end, Cui'e couldn't twist Zhang Fugui, and after glaring at him, she looked at him very eagerly: "My good daughter—"

"I said don't call me my daughter. ”

Cui'e blushed as if she was deflated: "Okay, good...... Miss Yingchen, Miss Lu Yingchen, you have become the general's wife, you have become a phoenix on the branches, and you have forgotten about us ordinary people who raised you. But it doesn't matter, as long as General Jiyun doesn't dislike our mother-in-law's family and makes you happy, but this time our Sarnath Garden is in trouble, and your relatives are in trouble, wow-"

Speaking of the word relatives, Lu Yingchen's first reaction was Jiyu and Xuanhuai, and then he understood that they were talking about the "relatives" of Sarnath. ”

Lu Yingchen was curious: "What's wrong?"

Cui'e's face was sad, her eyebrows were wrinkled in the shape of a figure-eight, she wiped her tears with her handkerchief for a while, her mouth was whimpering and mourning, and she sighed for a long time before she said to Lu Yingchen: "You live here every day-" She quickly glanced at this small courtyard, hid the disdain in her eyes, and continued: "Living in this general's mansion, I'm afraid I don't know something!

She was mysterious, there were words in her words, but she didn't say everything, hanging Lu Yingchen's appetite. Cui'e also pounded Zhang Fugui's big belly with her elbow while talking, asking him to cooperate with herself, Zhang Fugui is worthy of growing up in the theater's nest, and when she was sad, she was so sad that she almost knelt down and cried and hugged her thighs.

Lu Yingchen felt irritated for no reason: "If you have something to say, say it quickly!"

The attitude and tone of this voice made Cui'e, who was about to play a wave of emotional cards first, startled again, she was startled, quietly glanced at Lu Yingchen, muttered something, and then said sadly: "Miss Lu, do you know who is coming to our Jiyun Kingdom? It's that, that-" She couldn't think of it for a while, and gently pinched Zhang Fugui, who was still wiping her tears next to her, Zhang Fugui was clever, and opened her mouth to receive: "It's the city lord of the 12-nation alliance of Nanyang-Jiangcheng! That's a person at the same level as the lord of Jiyun country!" He is passing through here, and he wants to come, he wants to come to Jiyun Country to pay a condolence visit!"

This Nanyang Alliance is an alliance formed by several small countries in the southern part of Central-continent, and its power is too great to be underestimated. There are no absolute borders between countries, and the same ancient jade coins of the South China Sea are used, and each country is commensurate with a city. The people of the alliance are all dark-skinned, abrupt facial features, and short people from South Central Continent, who are smart and studious, and are good at business.

Lu Yingchen instantly understood what they were going to let themselves do.

It was not without such a situation before, and the dignitaries who came from afar named them to have a private meeting with Lu Yingchen, but they all made her refuse. It's not that she has no one in her eyes, it's just that if she is forced to be anxious, she will be forced to die with tears in her eyes, and finally she is so angry that Cui'e straightens her chest with her orchid fingers.

After a long time, everyone also understood Lu Yingchen's temper and personality, at most, when Lu Yingchen performed, he set up special seats for those dignitaries and nobles, asking for private meetings or something, and no one mentioned it again. Unexpectedly, over time, this became one of her legends, making her a legendary servant.

But the master who came back this time is not as simple as an ordinary dignitary, it is the same existence as the lord of Jiyun Kingdom! He is still the city lord of Jiangcheng of the Nanyang Alliance, and if he provokes one, he will be waiting to provoke the entire Nanyang Alliance, although the Nanyang Alliance will not dare to go against the vassal state of the Gulong Dynasty, and will not turn his face with the Jiyun Kingdom for this big thing, but if he makes people unhappy, these ordinary people with no name will suffer a catastrophe.

They are just servants, and they are lower than merchants and farmers.

Although they wear gold and silver, are as beautiful as flowers, sing every night, are happy and hateful, dare to love and hate, and are the focus on the stage, but after the end, no one will take a look at them, and no one will care about their loneliness and loneliness. On the contrary, because their low status is not commensurate with their luxurious life, they are jealous, and they look down on the servants even more.

Lu Yingchen didn't say anything, and was about to close the door to send off guests.

Seeing this, Cui'e hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out a little foot against the door, and the two competed with each other, so that a little snow on the edge of the door fell and scattered on Cui'e's shoulders, but she didn't care, and said in an eager tone: "Good daughter, good daughter! You listen to what your mother says! That Jiangcheng City Lord is not good at anything, and this time he came to Jiyun Beauty, my mother knows that you are about to marry into the General's Mansion, but if you provoke the one who is high up, our Deer Wild Garden will be over!" The lord of the country has personally decreed that Sarnath must be well prepared, such characters, under the Son of Heaven, above ten thousand people! Where can ordinary girls see it! Mother doesn't tell you to do anything, just sing and sing as before, can't you sing and sing!"

"Yingchen, don't forget that the three of you grew up eating Sarnath food! Don't you like the ugly dog and don't think the family is poor, now that you are soaring, can you bear to watch your former family suffer! Yingchen, I beg you! Let's go out of the mountain again! Just once! Otherwise, if we don't entertain that adult well, we will be beheaded!" Zhang Fugui was so anxious that he almost knelt down and kowtowed.

Yingchen sneered inside: "Thanks to your blessings, I have been trained to become a man, a servant." ”

Cui'e was able to speak well, and then said: "Doesn't that also make you such a great beauty! Isn't it that we carefully cultivate you and bring you up, can you dance for General Jiyun? If you don't dance, can he look at you? Can you turn a sparrow into a phoenix...... You, you are ungrateful!" said this, and his heart jumped for no reason.

Seeing that Yingchen was silent at the other end of the door, Cui'e gained even more momentum and pursued while she was victorious: "Yingchen, don't forget, your deed of sale is still with me! Even if the general doesn't marry you, your contract can't be destroyed for a day! This, this is stipulated by the royal law! No matter how powerful his general is, he can't and can't flout the royal law!"

There was a dead silence on the other side of the door.

Seeing this, Cui'e's tone softened, and she slowly stabbed Yingchen's heart with a soft knife: "Do you want to marry him justifiably and with an innocent identity?" You promise me that you can go out of the mountain again, just once, just go on stage and sing like before, you don't need to do anything, and the rest of your mother will arrange other girls to replace you." It's good just once, as long as you promise me, after the deed is completed, your deed of sale, no, even with you and your sister Xuanhuai's deed of sale, I will burn it together! From now on, you are all innocent and good girls! She can also find a good mother-in-law!"

Lingering's heart was trembling.

Women who enter Sarnath are required to sign a deed of sale, but men are not. Because the servant is a very special profession and a "specialty" of the Jiyun country, the lord of the Jiyun country stipulates that the deed of sale will only become invalid after the servant is married, otherwise he must always "serve the country".

But how many people can defy the gossip and marry a servant to go home?

Haunting Chen hesitated.

For Xuanhuai. She said to herself.

After a few moments, she slowly opened the door.
