Yes, the woman who was punched and kicked was none other than Zhang Qing. The eldest lady of the Zhang family whom Yu Lan once served.
In her previous life, Yu Lan was sold together with her, and she has not been seen since. As for where she was sold, it is not clear. In this life, she left the Zhang Mansion early, so she has not been seen since.
.I didn’t expect that more than ten years later, I would encounter such a situation again.
It really lives up to that saying, things in the world are impermanent.
To be honest, Yu Lan was quite surprised to see her.
Not far away, after the wife of that house left with her maid, the whispers in the crowd gradually became louder.
"shameless."
"You are so old and dressed like this, you are trying to seduce someone, bah... Her child seems to have been born in a brothel! I don't know whose it is, but you are trying to blackmail someone."
"Thanks to her for having the guts to give birth to the child, if I had no shame to live..."
People's words are scary.
Listening to the whispers in her ears, the woman lowered her head slightly. Until now, the cruel person has not appeared, and it is obvious that he does not want to recognize the child. What to do, the child can no longer follow her.
"Mom shouldn't have given birth to you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." At this moment, Zhang Qing saw Yu Lan standing not far away. However, he could no longer recognize her, but she felt familiar.
Looking at the dress of the other party, she could tell that she was the wife of a wealthy family. She looked gentle and kind. She suddenly had a little hope that if her daughter could stay with this lady, it would be better to be a slave than to stay in a brothel.
Thinking of this, she took her daughter and hurriedly came to Yu Lan and knelt down directly.
Seeing this situation, Yu Lan was taken aback and took a step back, raising his eyebrows slightly.
What is this for?
I still want to blackmail myself but I can't.
Zhang Qing knelt down and kowtowed directly to Yu Lan, "Madam, please accept my daughter and let her stay with you as a servant to serve you! This child is very obedient, just give her a mouthful of food.
That’s fine.”
Yu Lan: "..."
Don't ask, it's because I feel a little complicated. I haven't seen her for more than ten years, and now I just met her and I want her daughter to take care of me.
Therefore, she did not recognize herself.
Yu Lan slightly lowered his head and glanced at the person kneeling in front of him, but couldn't help but say, "You want me to accept this child? Well, look up at me, and then think about it."
Zhang Qing didn't know why, so she raised her head and looked at Yu Lan and the man beside her. The more she looked, the more familiar she felt. However, with her status, how could she possibly know any noble person.
I felt a little uneasy, but I still said: "The slave family has thought about it. Please ask Madam to accept this child!"
Yu Lan: "..."
"I refuse." Yu Lan shook his head slightly and didn't say much. He just looked down at the person kneeling in front of him and said calmly, "I remember you said that if you are of low status, you should be bullied and trampled on.
Even if you are beaten to death, you deserve it because of your bad fate. Now, this sentence is very applicable to you."
Zhang Qing's eyes widened and she looked at Yu Lan blankly, "You, you, it's you..." The memories of the past came up clearly. For a moment, she was stunned. There was only one sentence in her mind,
Impossible, this is impossible...
Seeing that she recognized him, Yu Lan said nothing more, turned around, took Zhao Chengji's hand and left.
Now let's talk about Mr. Yu. The Zhang family violated the national law and was confiscated by the emperor. The person in charge was beheaded in public. Who is the emperor? He is his own man. He is the father of the prince, the father of the second prince and the father of the princess. So this is the case.
After all, my whole family has a grudge against them.
Yu privately said that although she did not care about the past, it did not mean that she had forgotten it. Regarding the matter of repaying evil with kindness, she could not have any sympathy. Therefore, Yu Lan was kind-hearted in both public and private matters.
You wouldn't leave someone behind just because the child is pitiful. You would be crazy to keep an enemy's child by your side out of kindness.
However, the fact that that woman could protect her child in such a way reminded Yu Lan of her own child...
When going back.
Yu Lan leaned on Zhao Chengji.
"You said these men have many wives and concubines at home, and they always like to go to the land of fireworks. They can't take care of their lower bodies, and they have children, and they know they are their biological children, but they still don't recognize them or raise them. What kind of people are they? They are simply useless as fathers.
.”
There are really quite a lot of this kind of thing. Why, don’t you think that the children born to brothel women are of low status and are raised outside just for the sake of reputation, or they are simply ignored.
"So, you asked the secret guards to put sacks on people and beat them up, and you also acted as a killer. You said you only killed those unscrupulous parents who gave birth to children and did not raise them." Needless to say, there are many people in Qingyang City now.
For the sake of my life, I raised myself outside at the first time and did not want to recognize it, or the children who did not recognize or support me were all recognized back home. In other words, it is a matter of eating for multiple people. Compared with my life, this is not a big deal.
.
Yu Lan waved her hands in denial, "Who knows, who saw it, it's not me, don't talk nonsense."
Having said this, Yu Lan poked the man next to her with her finger and whispered: "Sir, as the saying goes, if domestic flowers don't have the fragrance of wild flowers, will a woman bring her child to you one day to marry her?"
Zhao Chengji: "..."
Don’t I eat melons? Why did I eat them on myself?
Before Zhao Chengji could speak, Yu Lan continued slowly: "Two days ago, I read a new story book. After being abandoned, I became the emperor's concubine. After reading it, I felt a little emotional. A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a wife is not as good as a thief.
, it is better not to steal than to steal, so other people’s ones are always the best.”
Zhao Chengji: "..."
Hearing this name, he knew who had arranged it. Not long ago, he was a widowed sister-in-law and a brother-in-law, and now he is raising an adulterous wife. What is it like to have a royal sister who cheats on her brother?
When an emperor has an outside wife, it simply damages his image. Although he is not the one he is talking about, others will think of him. When he thinks of this, Zhao Chengji's face turns dark.
It seems that it is necessary to let the imperial sister stop.
Zhao Chengji raised his hand to touch his forehead.
"I suddenly want to be quiet."
Yu Lan glanced at him and smiled gently, "Master, who is Jingjing? Do you know me?"
Before Lan could say anything, Zhao Chengji stretched out his hand to hold her chin, turned his head and kissed her lips.
There's nothing that can't be coaxed by a kiss. If it doesn't work, just sleep with her.
After the kiss, Zhao Chengji held her sideways in his arms and sat there, resting his forehead against hers, speaking in a gentle and low voice.
"I am devoted to you wholeheartedly, and it will not change in this life, the next life, or every lifetime."
Putting her hands around his neck, Yu Lan smiled unconsciously, and the dimples on her cheeks were clearly visible. The smile was bright and moving.
"Master, just coax me."
"Are you happy then?"
"It's okay! A little bit."
"Just a little?"
"A little more than a little bit."
"In this case, it seems that I still have to learn more."
