Regardless of whether it is modern or ancient times, what girls care about most is their appearance, and Fang Mingzhu is no exception. Now she really wants to see what she looks like - she can make up for her poor clothing, but
Don't be born too ugly.
"But probably not."
Fang Mingzhu secretly thought that in modern times, she was a famous beauty and someone who had appeared on the cover of magazines. "Although she was on the cover of a world-famous adult magazine, and her mother almost vomited blood because of it.
, but from another perspective, everyone around the world knows that it is impossible for an ugly girl to have the chance to be on the cover of that famous magazine." Therefore, Fang Mingzhu still has confidence in her appearance.
of.
There was no mirror, but there was a well in the yard. Fang Mingzhu picked up the wooden bucket by the well and brought out a bucket of water. When Fang Mingzhu couldn't wait to look at the water, she opened her mouth in horror, but she
He didn't scream - not because he didn't want to scream, but because he was too frightened and couldn't scream anymore!
What was reflected on the surface of the water was an unfamiliar face: the face was very thin and pointed, so it seemed a bit too long. Because of the long face, the proportions of the nose and mouth were seriously out of balance. It looked like he was either a tuberculosis man or starved to death.
Ghost, a pair of eyes are slender and lifeless, and the hair is piled on the head. It looks like it has not been combed for at least three months. Looking down, the slender neck and the collarbones on both sides are obviously protruding.
He came out with the attitude of an African refugee. Fang Mingzhu subconsciously raised her hands and looked at them. In an instant, she felt an even stronger dizziness and hit her head on:
"God, is this my hand?"
Her hands are black and yellow, the skin is rough, the fingers look thick and hard, without any elasticity, almost every nail is broken. There is also an ugly scar on the palm of the hand!
Looking at her hands, Fang Mingzhu laughed miserably. Since her hands and arms were this ugly black and yellow color, then the skin on her face probably wouldn't be much better.
Fang Mingzhu fell weakly to the edge of the well:
"God, can you tell me, where is this place? Who am I? How far am I from the person I want to conquer?"
Fang Mingzhu leaned blankly on the stone platform at the mouth of the well, feeling depressed in her heart. She also knew that God would not suddenly jump out and chat with her. Master Zhong had already told her before she returned to ancient times.
It was clear that after she returned to the Tang Dynasty, no one could help her. All she could rely on was herself.
Suddenly, Fang Mingzhu felt a shock in her heart - did God really hear her prayer? Fang Mingzhu's memories of this life began to flow continuously in her mind...
In this life, she was also called Fang Mingzhu, but this pearl really had worse eyes than a dead fish.
She was born in a small village outside Chang'an City. Her parents died when she was young, and she was raised by a relative. That relative raised her like a kitten or puppy and threw away any leftovers.
Give her a bite, and she will starve if there is no leftover food. At that time, the only reason this relative raised her was because she was a girl. When she was older, she could be sold to a brothel and earn some money.
.
However, when Fang Mingzhu reached the age of twelve, her relatives were completely in despair because she was so ugly. She was as tall and thin as a sorghum stalk, not to mention her face.
Especially now that we are in the Tang Dynasty, the whole world regards plumpness and plumpness as beauty, so even if such girls are given to brothels for free, no brothels will want them.
When her relatives took the 12-year-old Fang Mingzhu to five or six brothels in a row and were rejected, her anger reached its peak. She even beat Fang Mingzhu severely on the street. Then she was rejected.
He directly put a straw mark on her and wanted to sell it on the street. At this time, a woman happened to pass by. After some bargaining, the woman bought Fang Mingzhu for fifteen cents. At that time in Chang'an, pork was very popular.
It’s fifty cents per pound!
These things happened four years ago, and Fang Mingzhu is now sixteen years old.
The woman who bought the pearl below was the same woman who beat her up that morning. This woman's husband's surname is Chen, and he is the owner of a small jewelry shop. The jewelry shop is in the front yard.
The business of this jewelry shop is bleak. It relies on the boss himself and a stupid apprentice to support the business. They can barely survive by striking small pieces of silver and copper jewelry, "because no one will come to such a small shop to strike gold."
jewelry".
Fang Mingzhu is the only servant girl in this family. Because she is the only one, her daily work includes: cooking, sweeping, washing, tidying up the house, looking after the children, pouring the chamber pot... and so on.
I get up before dawn every day and work until late at night, every day for four years.
Apart from working, being beaten was a common occurrence for Fang Mingzhu, because the mistress of the Chen family had become accustomed to using Fang Mingzhu as her punching bag. She would beat her up whenever anything happened to vent her anger.
This is the environment Fang Mingzhu currently lives in and the life she lives.
After figuring out all this, Fang Mingzhu was completely dumbfounded! Because she came all the way back to the Tang Dynasty not to go sightseeing, remember the bittersweet, and experience life! She came here on a mission,
She has to save her mother, who is still unconscious in a hospital in Los Angeles!
And if she wants to complete the task, then she must first find ways to get close to a person, a famous Tang Dynasty person who is very familiar to modern people - this Tang Dynasty person will be famous in history in the future, and his name will be passed down through the ages, but now, he is still
It’s just a prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Long Ji!
Fang Mingzhu was really about to faint. She really couldn't imagine how she could get close to the proud man with her current appearance and status.
However, Fang Mingzhu was Fang Mingzhu after all. She was not depressed for a long time. Soon, she held her head high again:
"I must have a way. I want to save my mother, and I must have a way." Fang Mingzhu cast her sights on the western skyline. If this is Chang'an, then Los Angeles should be in that direction:
"Mom, don't worry." Fang Mingzhu called affectionately to the western sky: "I will definitely be able to find a way to complete this task so that both of us can live well!"
Fang Mingzhu stood up and started working quickly. From the memory she had just retrieved, she was already familiar with Fang Mingzhu's life in the Tang Dynasty, and she knew what she should do now.
And she also knew that if she didn't finish these tasks, there would be no breakfast. Now Fang Mingzhu's purpose is very clear: work hard to get a breakfast! The most important thing now is to eat and survive!
Because I still have so many important things to do in this time and space. The prerequisite for doing these things is to survive tenaciously in this strange world!
