In her memory, her father, who was proficient in eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, personally took her to the Yabozi and sold her, and after getting three taels of silver, he never looked back.
So, are they here now?
Zidie's hometown is the nearest city to the capital, but ordinary people would not think of traveling across mountains and rivers to come to the capital. Not to mention that Zidie has never heard about her family in so many years, and no one has come to see her.
What about this matter? It shouldn't be as simple as selling your daughter and being reluctant to find her again. In this era of limited information, finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Someone should help her find her relatives.
"I don't have any family, no see!" Chu Yunli refused.
The mother-in-law lowered her voice, "Originally, the slaves also said the same thing. They all know that you are from the uncle's house, but they said that you have a birthmark on your back. If it is missing, they will spread the word widely."
The birthmark on the girl's body really shouldn't be publicized everywhere. Those who are not scrupulous about meat and vegetables will make fun of it. Moreover, her status is extraordinary now. If it is known to everyone in the streets and alleys, it will not affect the reputation of the Duke's mansion.
good.
"No." Chu Yunli waved her hand, "Tell them to leave quickly. If they make trouble again, they will be arrested and sent to Jing Zhaoyin."
After the mother-in-law left, Chu Yunli wrote a letter and asked Fulai to send it to Qin Shao.
When it was getting late, Qin Shao came back, specifically to pick her up. He said he wanted to see the lights. Yao didn't want to agree at first, but in the end he couldn't resist his son. He told her several times to be careful and watched the two of them leave the house.
carriage.
After getting on the carriage, Chu Yunli saw Yao's reluctant eyes and couldn't help laughing. She turned around and asked, "Have you been caught? Where are you being held?"
Qin Shao held her hand and put the other hand on her belly. He was kicked just in time, and the corners of his mouth turned up, "He's a naughty boy, he's pretty good." He then answered her, "Not far away.
, right inside the city.”
"Skinny boy?" Chu Yunli touched her belly, "What would you do if you were a skinny girl?"
"That's better. If the girl's family is more lively, it's better to practice some martial arts. If the man is disobedient in the future, just beat him." Qin Shao said seriously.
It made Chu Yunli laugh.
Sure enough, we arrived very quickly. We were in a small, remote courtyard. After entering the courtyard, we saw several people guarding her. There were also people in the house shouting, "My daughter is the wife of the Crown Prince of Liguo. If you dare to touch us,
, she will definitely not let you go."
The door opened, and inside the room was a couple in their thirties and a fat man about fourteen or fifteen years old.
Zidie was six years old when she was sold, and she still had some memories of her family. The people in the house were indeed her parents and younger brother. It has to be said that the people behind the scenes put a lot of thought into it.
Several people raised their eyes and saw a girl with a big belly and a red dress. She was full of grace and her eyes were clear and sharp. They couldn't help but take a step back, and saw Qin Shao with a frosty face beside them. They were even more frightened. Several people couldn't help but lean on him.
Together, the woman said sharply, "You arrested us? My daughter will not let you go."
"Hey, you don't know me?" Chu Yunli approached and asked curiously.
Hearing this, the woman raised her head and looked at it carefully. After reading it, her eyes lit up, "Are you a girl?"
Chu Yunli was silent, what kind of name is this?
"It's really a girl." The woman stepped forward, "Do you still remember mother?"
She wanted to come closer, but was frightened by Qin Shao's gloomy expression. She stood two steps away from Chu Yunli and said, "I am my mother. When I was a child, I secretly hid steamed buns for you to eat."
Hearing this, Qin Shao's face became even more ugly.
"You are my sister, right? I'm so hungry. Please hurry up and ask someone to cook for us. I heard that the Duke's Mansion only eats fish lips. I want to try it." The little fat man spoke.
Everyone in the room ignored him.
"I don't remember you, but I remember him." Chu Yunli pointed at the big fat man behind him, "When he sent me to Yapo's house, I cried hoarsely and begged him not to sell me, but unfortunately he still took the money.
After leaving, what are you talking about..."
Chu Yunli held her chin up and said, "They said that's all I'm good for."
The woman turned pale.
"It would be good for all of us if I sold you. You see, aren't you blessed now? For such a mighty man, if I hadn't sold you and stayed in Yicheng, you would have been a peasant woman at most, with men and children at home every day.
You have to thank me." The more he said, the more he felt that he was justified. He looked at Qin Shao, although he was afraid in his heart, he said, "You must be my son-in-law.
For this betrothal gift, just give me... one thousand taels."
He felt that the lion had opened his mouth and raised his chin, "Eight hundred taels is enough, but you have to take our family into the Duke's Mansion to support us."
"Who asked you to come?" Qin Shao finally said, "In other words, who told you that your daughter became the crown prince's wife and asked you to go to the gate of the Duke's Mansion to cause trouble?"
"I'm her father, shouldn't you support us until we grow old?" The fat man frowned, "Also, Xiaobao is fifteen this year, and he wants to get married and start a business. You have to help him find a suitable girl to get married, and then help him
Just find a job, rank nine..."
"Ah..." He suddenly screamed and fell to the ground.
It turned out that a dagger had been stuck on his calf at some point. The dagger Qin Shao was playing with had disappeared.
Qin Shao carelessly took out another dagger from somewhere and played with it. His eyes were as cold as ice. "Answer the questions carefully. If you talk too much, my dagger will go to my neck."
A foul smell came from the room, and the little fat man peed and said tremblingly, "We don't know."
Qin Shao frowned, stood up and helped Chu Yunli out, "Leave this to me, don't look at it, the smell is too unpleasant."
Chu Yunli stood in the yard, looking at the sweet-scented osmanthus in the corner, and listening to the occasional screams from the house, her heart gradually calmed down.
Zidie was resentful of her parents. In her short life of more than ten years, she had not enough food and clothing to keep her warm at home. She had to guard against her father punching and kicking her when he was drunk. After she was sold, she was homeless, and she also
He was almost sold into a brothel, and finally entered the uncle's house. There were intrigues and intrigues everywhere, and he was always worried that he would die if he was not careful. Later, he went to the Duke's house, but within two days, Huan Chaoshan really lost his life.
Even if no one was looking for them, Chu Yunli would send someone to look for them. When she found that people who were once so scared were also afraid, terrified, and begging for mercy like ants in vain, Zidie's resentment was revealed.
will dissipate.
Within a quarter of an hour, Qin Shao went out, took her into the carriage, walked out of the alley, stretched out his arms to hold her, and then whispered, "Their surname is Chen, they are a farmer's family in the suburbs of Yicheng.
Some time ago, someone went to his home to tell them that their daughter had become a noble person and was looking for her, so he took them to the capital. In fact, they have been here for two months."
She has been here for two months, but she has just come to her door now. She is obviously here for her child. When a pregnant woman is older, she should not be overly emotional, as she is likely to have a miscarriage. The older the child is, she may kill two people.
.
Chu Yunli asked softly, "Who is the person behind? Can you find out?"
"I asked, they said that I have asked people to check the house where they used to live, and there will be news soon." Qin Shao hugged her tightly, "Don't feel bad, that kind of family is not worth worrying about. From now on, my children and I are the ones who
your family."
When the two of them got off the carriage at home, Fulai came over quietly and whispered, "That house is in the name of the nanny next to Mrs. Ding Amber."
The two looked at each other, and it goes without saying that it was Xu Yaner's idea.
Chu Yunli hadn't had a good conversation with her for a long time, and he didn't expect that she could still cause trouble quietly.
The next morning, news came out that Mrs. Li Guogong's parents from the countryside had come to find them, but she found a place to lock them up.
The news spread like wildfire. In the morning, the imperial censor came to the court and said that people who are unfilial and disloyal are not worthy of imperial orders. It is really inappropriate for the Duke of Liguo to marry such a daughter-in-law.
But he was pushed back by Prince Li Guo on the spot. Children should indeed be filial, but they sold their daughter in the first place, which proved that the daughter was no longer theirs, but belonged to Ding'an Bo's house. Xu Die'er was lucky enough to be Ding'an.
The uncle adopted her as an adopted daughter and was given a large dowry to marry into the Duke's palace. It was entirely under the orders of her master. She was first sold by her parents, and then she obeyed the master's orders to marry. After marrying into the Duke's palace, she was filial to her elders and friendly to her brothers. She was loyal, filial, benevolent and righteous.
, so attached to love and righteousness, isn’t it worthy of a royal decree?
There was no result in the argument, but the lack of result proved that the emperor agreed with Qin Shao's words. Anyway, he had no intention of invalidating Chu Yunli's imperial edict.
Chu Yunli also didn't expect that Xu Yan'er could hold back a big move.
After this commotion, everyone suddenly realized that the original speculation that the Crown Prince's wife was Ding Amber's concubine was not true. She had a father and a mother, but the father and mother were too unscrupulous and were lucky enough to be adopted as their adopted daughters.
As for Ding Amber, he had to admit that he was an adopted daughter, otherwise it would not make sense for him to give away a large dowry.
Not to mention how uncomfortable the An Bo Mansion was, Xu Dieer's life experience has been revealed anyway. In fact, even if Chu Yunli became the crown prince's wife, her identity could not withstand further investigation.
Now is the time!
When Chu Yunli woke up from her sleep, her mother-in-law whispered beside her, "Madam, the second young lady wishes to see you."
