Chapter 353 The slave family's name is Qian'er, with a weak body, born in Zhao's house (middle)
Even after a long, long time, even the abandoned lobby of the abandoned infants' home located in the southwest corner of the Duke's Palace, where the people of the Duke's Palace didn't even bother to hang a plaque, has long been covered with very thick dust.
Even though those abandoned baby maids who stood in the lobby waiting for the roll of the dice had already had their own destiny and the dust had settled.
Some people are still working as low-level slaves serving tea and water in the Duke's palace, some are clever and careful and have become the upper-class maids in the palace who take care of their masters, and some people are lucky enough to be taken as concubines by the children of the Zhao family and become masters.
.
There are also people who just redeem themselves and leave their homes to marry an ordinary family with food, rice, oil and salt.
But there are others who are destined to be different. They seem to be phoenixes with broken wings, and they are not the same as the sparrows and ants. Suffering and pain, cold and hunger are not the graves where they are buried, but the Nirvana flames that celebrate her birth.
When you emerge from the fire, you are destined to spread your wings and fly high, soaring upwards, flipping over the sky, the phoenix singing in the sky, throwing all the mortal birds below you, and never looking back.
However, even everything above has changed.
These memories have also been swept into dusty corners by everyone.
But for a certain little girl, it still seems like yesterday...
The abandoned babies home back then was canceled early.
Everyone, including the stewards of each room, and the abandoned baby maids who were waiting for selection, had almost forgotten that that sunny morning, the little girl who was blocked behind the crowd, curled up with a dirty little face,
I don't know the bright smile on her little face at that time.
I also forgot the series of things that happened that spring morning.
It was not until many years later that what she and the second lady from the fourth room did while practicing outside were reported back to the Duke's Mansion again and again.
The palace was filled with joy like a festival time and time again. Emperor Chu's imperial edicts were delivered to the Duke's Palace again and again. The visiting relatives and dignitaries of the Chu Emperor also walked gently into the side door of the Duke's Palace with smiling faces again and again.
The second young lady with a cool and arrogant temperament was flanked by a slim and plump little maid who was as legendary as she was. She became the only one second to the second young lady and became the target of the Zhao family's descendants in the Duke's Palace to fawn over her enthusiastically.
Inquire, look up to the fantasy.
At the same time, this 'little maid' who was known to everyone in the palace to like swings has also become an extremely enviable figure in the hearts of other humble maids in the Duke's palace, a role model hidden deep in their hearts, and a fantasy before going to bed every day and night.
It was only at this time that those who had personally experienced the morning selection of maidservants at the Abandoned Infant Home suddenly realized that they had actually had such an intersection before. Then many of them couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh,
Such a character has such a starting point.
If nothing else happened, this incident later became a topic of conversation for them while looking up to them and talking about it proudly in front of others.
However, some of them, such as the seven abandoned baby maids, trembled when they thought of something bad. When they listened again, they could hear the excited discussions of the masters they served. What was hidden in them
It was a tone of awe for that 'little maid',
During the lively reception of the pair of female masters and servants by the whole house, some of the slaves, including the seven abandoned infant maids, were shivering and had trouble sleeping and eating.
Except for one or two who overreacted and tried to escape frantically from the Duke's Mansion out of fear of retaliation, they were caught back by the Duke's Mansion and had their hands and feet broken.
The other people who had participated in the bullying of the weak finally took the initiative to kneel on the veranda that Zhao Qian'er was passing by.
For these people who bang their heads violently, tremble and tremble while lying on the ground, and whose speech is unclear.
Zhao Qian'er, who didn't know why, was smiling happily, but it was like someone else was passing by, her eyes not lingering at all.
Her steps on the verandah were light and joyful.
As everyone behind him watched with blank expressions, Zhao Qianer happily ran to the kitchen to serve a meal that suited his taste to a guy who seemed to be becoming more and more nerdy.
While she was happy, her beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle.
Brother Rong'er is really stupid, a big idiot. Even during his mother's mourning period, he can't even skip meals. He goes out to visit Aunt Liu's grave every day, and when he comes back, he stays in the room to study. His health is the most important thing.
.
After Zhao Qian'er returned with the food box, she was still the same as before. She walked straight past these strangers who were kneeling down, her expression unchanged.
She carefully carried the food box, returned to someone's yard, and came to the door of the house.
But the little girl hesitated and lingered outside the door for a long time, her pink lips slightly opening and closing, as if she was rehearsing the appropriate words to say after entering.
At present, Brother Rong'er is engaged to the young lady, and Aunt Liu passed away half a year ago.
Brother Rong'er was studying in Shouxiao, and she and the young lady went out to practice in plain white clothes. Now they returned home briefly, saying they were visiting the old lady, but the person they really wanted to visit was in the house in front of them.
After returning home, Zhao Qian'er felt extremely uncomfortable when she saw Brother Rong'er's haggard appearance.
Because he was about to get married, he never saw the young lady, so he treated her a little better, but his expression was not very good, and he disliked her for delaying his studies.
Thinking of this, Zhao Qian'er took a deep breath, then smiled brightly, pushed the door open, and let the sunlight shine into the dim room.
"Brother Rong'er, it's time to eat, it's time to eat."
"Don't eat."
"Brother Rong'er, you just promised me that I would take care of your studies these days."
"... Just put it there, wait, and stop making noise."
"Oh, I'll just sit and say nothing. But if you're hungry, just tell me, well, Brother Rong'er still needs to eat early, otherwise he'll get cold..."
"Okay, okay, you ladies, why are you so long-winded?"
"No more, really no more, you study, I...I won't disturb you."
"If you keep making noise, go out. Also, go over there and don't stare at me all the time. It's annoying and annoying."
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. Food, the food is here, don't forget, I'm here too. If you call me anytime, don't ask..."
Zhao Qianer immediately closed her mouth and swallowed the rest of her words.
He quietly glanced at Zhao Rong, who was holding a book with an expressionless face.
She ran to the other side of the room far away from the desk, and sat obediently on the wooden bench, with her back to him.
The afternoon sun shines through the window next to it.
This scene seems a bit familiar.
But at this time, she was bathing in the sunshine.
The 'little maid', who was regarded as a little ancestor by everyone in the Duke's Palace, was sitting on a high stool, with her elbows on her legs, her little hands supporting her chin, and her back to Zhao Rong, who was immersed in reading.
Even though his back was turned, to Zhao Qian'er, who had the cultivation level, she knew every move of the nerd who she didn't dare to be aggressive at all and could only coax.
There are some things that the whole world knows, but he doesn't know.
The little girl, who is no longer young, is sitting quietly in the sunshine.
At a certain moment, she turned her head and looked out the window at the swing that was pushed up by the spring breeze in the yard. She supported her chin with both hands and followed the rhythm of the swing, covering her slender calves.
The spring sunshine falling through the window, the swing being blown up by the wind, and Brother Rong'er who is getting more and more nerdy behind him.
They've always been there.
How could she not know who those strangers she passed by on the veranda just now ignored them?
What happened in the lobby of the Foundling Home many years ago.
The little maid always remembers it.
Suddenly, something occurred to her, and she tilted her head and smiled.
"Puch."
…
Sometimes memory is a very strange thing. Many things will be forgotten, and they will be worn away by time like passion, even if you were confident at the time that you could remember them for a lifetime.
However, there are always just a few things that make you remember them deeply.
Just like at this moment, Zhao Qian'er, who was squatting and curled up behind the lobby of the Abandoned Infant Home, caught some strange movements behind him amidst the endless pain caused by the 'smiling face'.
The little girl's thoughts were interrupted.
She smiled brightly and looked back stupidly.
I saw a big boy with messy clothes squatting on the window sill behind him where the sunlight was falling. There was a big hole in his pants at the knee.
But the big boy didn't seem to care. He turned around to look outside a few times, then turned back and looked around the lobby curiously.
He looked eager to try, as if he was about to jump from the high window sill into the lobby.
Zhao Qian'er opened her eyes wide and looked at the boy who was much taller than her. The sun behind him made her eyes sting slightly.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the lobby.
The steward from the fourth room said respectfully: "Madam, Miss."
Zhao Qianer suddenly came back to her senses.
It’s the eldest lady!
