For a moment she was not in the mood for small talk.
"Your second aunt is asking you." This was Mrs. Cao's first words after entering the door.
"There is no need to salute. My grandma must know very well why I escaped the disaster. I am the most lucky to be able to come out intact."
After hearing what Cao Yashu said, everyone stopped talking, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.
"Okay, I'm tired, you can go out." Mrs. Cao said with her eyes closed.
Aunt Cao asked Cao Dandan to take Cao Yashu to the room. Just as Cao Dandan was about to speak, she saw the golden color and glared at Cao Yashu fiercely: "Let's go."
When she arrived at the room, Cao Yashu hadn't seen clearly what was inside, so she was startled by the sound of him kneeling down.
"Cousin, what did you say?"
"Can't you hear me clearly? I asked this maid to kneel down. Now that she has entered our Cao family, should she meet the masters of the Cao family, or should she only recognize you? You are so unfilial. Grandma is still here.
There is no one to serve, but you have to ask someone to serve you. After all, you are the eldest lady from the prefect's house."
"Also, a maidservant, you are so handsome in gold and silver. Why don't you quickly take off the things on your head and change these clothes? You don't look like a slave. This is for our Cao family."
Come be the master."
Cao Dandan snorted coldly and held her hands, wanting to see Gu Yu kneeling at her feet. The wintersweet golden hairpin on her head should not be worn by a slave.
Gu Yu was speechless. She was the most low-key. Although they didn't want to go overboard, the master said that she didn't need girls to show off. Besides, she liked the people around her to dress well. She felt better after seeing them.
There was a lot of silver in the moonlight, not to mention that the master would reward them from time to time. The wintersweet gold hairpin on her head was bought by them when they were shopping. Unexpectedly, the Cao family would like it with their short-sighted eyes.
"If the old lady wants a maid, she has to ask her second uncle and second aunt to work hard. I don't have a bond to sell this girl next to me. She is free. This time she is just accompanying me for a trip. She will have to leave later. As for the
Whether she wears gold or silver is her own right and capital, and you and I have no right to interfere." She didn't want to stay for a moment, she was probably not related, and she never thought of living here, she already
She is a subordinate of the Princess, and she must use her meager strength to serve the Princess.
Hearing Cao Yashu's words, Cao Dandan's eyes widened. He actually had nothing, not even a tael of silver, except that this maid was not her own.
Cao Dandan left Gu Yu and the two of them ran out. They knew where she went without asking. Sure enough, Aunt Cao came over not long after. Uncle Cao, a grown man who didn't know how to avoid suspicion, broke into Cao Dandan's room.
"Second aunt and uncle, do you have any questions?"
"Is this girl really not your servant?"
"Of course not. Second Aunt will find out when she goes to the Yamen to check."
"Then what are you doing?"
"Your Majesty, your kindness, found out that I was innocent, and then let me return to my home."
Uncle Cao and Uncle Cao looked at each other, looking at Cao Yashu with their eyes, a hint of displeasure flashed away.
"I see, then you can stay here with peace of mind. If you are not from our family, you have to leave. You are used to being served by others. Our family won't be able to afford it for a while. You will suffer in the future." After saying that, Cao Er
The aunt took the man and left.
Cao Yashu grew up looking at faces, and she was very good at observing people's emotions. She skipped the filter of family affection, how could she not see the displeasure between the two of them, and the hot and excited blood in her heart gradually solidified.
"Sister Gu Yu, I will go back with you. I want to find the princess."
"you,"
"Sister Gu Yu, don't worry, I can see clearly."
"It's good that you understand. Sometimes, you have to let go of your obsessions before you can be reborn." Gu Yu stopped, and she felt a little distressed when she looked at the people who were so entangled in the web of family love that they couldn't extricate themselves.
"Me, Sister Gu Yu?" Gu Yu glanced at her, turned around and left. Cao Yashu followed behind and left the Cao house.
Back at the palace, Cao Yashu made a request to sign a deed of sale. Luo Jingyao was greatly puzzled. Who would want to sell herself into slavery if she could be a good citizen?
"Princess, my slave, I want to have a guarantee." Cao Yashu told what happened in the Cao family: "This slave always feels that they don't like me. Both my parents are dead, and I am an orphan. Apart from this person, I have nothing.
No, I have seen and heard a lot of people in the prefecture who can manipulate women, including marriage, and I have never thought about getting married, but I am afraid that something may change."
Seeing that she was no longer crazy about family ties, Luo Jingyao nodded and told Gu Yu to hand over a piece of information to Cao Yashu. She didn't have that much time to make breakthroughs, so she could solve it all at once.
Cao Yashu went from doubt to disbelief to hatred. She looked up at Luo Jingyao. Luo Jingyao nodded. Human nature is really uncertain and cannot be understood.
"master."
"Go." Beixuanlu is not just a decoration.
Gu Yu took Cao Yashu to sign a deed of betrayal and handed this evidence-like information to the Yamen. Taking advantage of this case, King An directly proposed one of his own to be the prefect, and he and the boss were also King An's
people.
A court meeting was held on the same day and they were arrested and brought to justice. Mrs. Cao was the main conspirator and sold her daughter-in-law, who was only a few months old, to Liu He. She was sentenced to death after the fall. The second uncle Cao and his wife were accomplices and were exiled for three thousand miles, attracting many people in Jincheng.
He applauded and called the new prefect Cai Wenwen the Great Master Qingtian.
Cao Dandan, who stayed behind, abandoned his brother and ran away directly. The Cao family also took great care of their only son, allowing him to go to school. They never let him get away with anything bad, even knowing about it.
I don't know, but unfortunately he was not a good scholar. After knowing what his grandmother's parents had done, his face turned pale, but he stubbornly took the body of Mrs. Cao and resolutely embarked on the road to exile for his parents.
Because of Cao Yashu, Bai Lu kept an eye on these things every day, and would always chirp after the business was over.
With the cold wind, winter has arrived, and the noisy snowflakes are scattered layer by layer on the ground, covering the earth with a soft and white winter quilt. Because the temperature is too low, it will affect the quality of the construction, and the work has been stopped for more than a month.
As October enters, the temperature difference between morning and evening in Jincheng is too big. The main street has been paved with cement. From Anwangfu Street to the city gate, other roads extending in all directions have their own responsible persons. After seeing the benefits of cement roads, everyone
It's a race against time, full of motivation, and a huge amount of cement is used. When it snows, the workers also take the opportunity to take a rest.
This grand occasion of nationwide participation is also rare, and from time to time you can see people grinning.
I heard that the prince has a policy that cement will be spread to every household, especially those involved in construction and paving. When the time comes, cement will give them priority. Not only will they be responsible for three meals a day, but they will also receive copper coins every day. This is a lantern.
It’s a good thing that I can’t even find. People in Jincheng feel like they are holding their heads high when they go out.
