Chu Yunli was not polite at all, so Zhang Jun could only rub his nose and admit it. There was no other way, his life was still in his hands.
In the days that followed, Chu Yunli and his party still took their time. Zhang Jun was so tired that he couldn't return to the capital as soon as possible, so he could only follow slowly. After he took the medicine twice more, he finally arrived outside the gate of Kyoto.
It was already the end of July when they arrived in Kyoto, the sun was setting, and it was almost dark.
After entering the city gate, the carriage headed all the way to the inner city.
The people who lived in the inner city of Kyoto were either rich or noble. The carriage did not go to the south where the Marquis's residence was, but to the west. The people living here were all wealthy businessmen with connections.
The carriage stopped beside a narrow street. Nanny Lin got out of the carriage and went to the concierge to say a few words. Then she returned to the carriage and whispered, "Girl, the master has already ordered you to go first."
Stay here and she will come see you as soon as possible."
Chu Yunli got off the carriage and followed her into the gate. After entering the small courtyard, Granny Lin took her directly to the main room in the backyard.
It can be seen that both the garden and the house have been taken care of in advance. The furniture in the house is fully equipped. Whether it is tablecloths or curtains, they are all in the bright colors used by the woman. Maybe... this house is really specially made for her.
prepare.
Grandma Lin gave a few instructions to the maid, then said goodbye and left.
The two maids stayed behind, and they were still serving Chu Yunli. As for the Qin family, they found another rough lady to look after them.
The different treatment between her and Qin probably also represents Hua's attitude towards the two.
After running all the way, the maid quickly brought hot water. After Chu Yunli washed up, she lay down on the soft bed.
The next morning, Chu Yunli was awakened by low voices outside the door. She only heard a gentle female voice asking, "How did you sleep last night?"
"Girl, I went to bed as soon as it got dark and I haven't gotten up yet." This was the maid's respectful reply.
"She's relieved, she's sleeping so soundly." The gentle woman said again, with a faint smile in her tone. Then she said bitterly, "The hateful woman has treated my Shan'er badly. She better not blame me."
"The one who abused the girl is Mrs. Qin. The girl herself is a reasonable person. She knows you have no choice but to blame you." The last one was Nanny Lin's voice.
Chu Yunli coughed, and the door was pushed open from the outside. Nanny Lin walked in first, walked around the screen, and said with a smile, "Girl, are you awake? Did you sleep well last night?"
"Very good." Chu Yunli sat up, "Who was talking outside just now?"
"It's... the master." Nanny Lin stepped forward, shook out the clothes that the maid had prepared, and helped her put them on. "The master is timid in his hometown and doesn't dare to see you."
Chu Yunli didn't say anything. After dressing up, she walked out of the screen and saw an elegant and beautiful woman sitting at the table.
His back was straight and he kept tapping his fingers on the table, showing that he was very nervous.
When she heard the noise, she turned her head and saw Chu Yunli's face. Hua's tears suddenly fell down. She quickly wiped them with a handkerchief, "Shan'er..."
The woman in front of her was indeed beautiful, like a girl who was twenty years old. Even if she was crying, she was still beautiful. If you look carefully, you will find that Dai Yushan's appearance is 50% similar to hers. Chu Yunli stepped forward slowly and said to herself
Gu Zi sat down and asked, "Are you my mother?"
Hua just looked at her, as if he couldn't see enough. His eyes gradually filled with tears. He nodded hurriedly when he heard the words, and moved his fingers. He couldn't hold back anymore, and held Chu Yunli's hand. Just as he was about to speak, he noticed
Seeing the roughness of her palms, I quickly opened her palms to take a closer look. When I saw the scars on my hands, big and small, my tears fell even more fiercely. I buried my head in those palms and cried so hard, "My poor Shan'er..."
Chu Yunli felt her sadness and felt slightly uncomfortable in her heart. This was her own emotion on behalf of Tuoshan, which affected her again. She frowned and took back her hand, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Dai Yushan grew up in a farm family. Even if she didn't go to the fields and only cut vegetables while cooking, she would have a lot of scars on her hands. Anyway, there were no major scars, but there were quite a few small scars, and I'm afraid they won't get better in this life.
Hua Shi finally realized how cold the girl in front of her was towards her, and felt a little disappointed, "Shan'er, I'm sorry for you, and I will make it up to you in the future."
"Compensate me?" Chu Yunli tilted her head and asked with a smile, "Do you just want me to be your concubine?"
Hua Shi was dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to find his voice, "No... you have to get married anyway. No matter what kind of family you are, mother-in-law is always difficult to take care of. When you marry back to the Hou Mansion, I will not be there for you."
I dare to bully you. When you give birth to a child, you will be the heir apparent. After that, you will be the Marquis! There are only three Marquis in the entire Kyoto. Apart from the concubines and royal family members, you are the most important.
Noble!"
Chu Yunli shook his head and laughed, "You are thinking too well. I am a girl who grew up in a farmer's family. I am illiterate and do not know the rules. How can I be Mrs. Hou? Are you kidding me?"
Hua stood up and looked her up and down. The more he looked at her, the more satisfied he became, "You are only seventeen. You have good looks and are smart. You are better than me. I can do it, so you can do it too!"
She raised her chin slightly and said proudly, "You can learn to read if you don't know how to read, and you can also learn to behave. With my daughter's temperament, even if she doesn't know anything, she is enough to be Mrs. Hou."
Chu Yunli was dumbfounded. She suddenly realized that she had not concealed herself well enough. She had done this to Mrs. Hou many times, and even the princess had done it. She knew how to speak and act without being rude.
.However, his own Dai Yushan was attacked by the Qin family all day long. She has a low self-esteem and is timid. She dare not speak loudly in front of others. How can she have the magnanimity of a Houmen girl?
If such a daughter stood in front of Fahrenheit, I don't believe she would dare to say such things.
It's too late to pretend to be cowardly now, and Chu Yunli is not a person willing to wrong her. If she pretends to be like Dai Yushan, she will be depressed to death! After thinking about it for a few times, she said, "No matter if it's enough or not, I won't
I can be a concubine!"
Hua Shi suddenly realized that this girl was very courageous and stubborn. She softened her voice and persuaded, "Being a concubine is only temporary. I will help you. No one will bully you..."
Chu Yunli's face was full of disbelief, "The princess is the mistress, can you stop her?"
Fahrenheit frowned, "Who told you?" She looked sternly at Nanny Lin, who was standing in the corner.
Grandma Lin could die unjustly, so she immediately stepped forward and knelt down, "Master clearly knows that the girl is very disgusted with being a concubine. I have never mentioned the prince's marriage."
"There's no need to ask her." Chu Yunli poured tea by herself and said after finishing it, "Before she went, I already knew that I was not a child of the Dai family. Because the princess's brother went to Tiezhen in person to ask for help.
Kill me, he told me everything."
Chu Yunli would not hide this, it would be better if the Hua family and the princess quarreled.
"How did he know?" Hua's face turned pale. It took him a while to calm down, and he looked her up and down again, "Shan'er, are you okay?"
Chu Yunli waved her hand, "I'm fine. It's just that I will never be a concubine. She is the princess. You can't stop her. If you do something to her, the Princess Mansion will not let you go."
The atmosphere in the room became awkward.
Fahrenhe suddenly felt that it was not good for a child to be too smart, as he could see through everything.
Nanny Lin knelt on the ground, glanced at the door, and said, "Master, the girl hasn't had breakfast yet."
Fahrenheit came to his senses and said, "Oh, let's eat first."
The soft and glutinous porridge was served, and the aroma was fragrant. Chu Yunli felt really hungry from the smell, so she drank two bowls of it unceremoniously.
Hua Shi also ate, but obviously absent-mindedly. He looked at her several times and hesitated to speak. When the food was finished and the maid removed the bowls and chopsticks, she said, "If you don't want to... you can only enter the house as a relative of my mother's family."
, your appearance is similar to mine, which is suitable. However, it is inevitable that someone will treat you indifferently, and I am afraid that you will be wronged. "
"Very good." Chu Yunli nodded, "Ordinary people can't bear the grievances I have, so just don't bother me when the time comes."
Hua reached out to touch her hair and said with a smile, "You are my daughter. It's not too late for me to love you, so how can I dislike you?"
Chu Yunli also smiled, with a meaningful smile, "You must keep your word."
If you want to be a concubine in the mansion, you have to make arrangements. Now that you are just a relative of the Hua family, you can go back to the mansion directly.
Hua Shi immediately took her out and got on the carriage. The richness of the Marquis Mansion, even in autumn, was a scene in three steps. Hua Shi patiently explained to her along the way, Chu Yunli listened casually, and soon arrived at the main courtyard.
As soon as they entered the main courtyard, they saw a girl coming in like the wind, with a pleasant voice, "Mom, where have you been so early in the morning? I can't find you anywhere."
Hearing this voice, Hua's eyebrows softened and she scolded, "You're a big girl now, don't be so rash and bump into the guests again."
When she mentioned the guests, she suddenly remembered that there were some important things that she had not yet explained. She looked at Chu Yunli with apologetic eyes and pulled the girl over, "This is your cousin Yushan, she just came from out of town."
, you should take her with you more from now on."
Hearing this, the girl looked Chu Yunli up and down and said, "Hello, Cousin Yushan."
Hua Shi was quite satisfied with her sensibleness, and took Chu Yunli's hand again, squeezing suggestively, "This is your cousin Tiantian, she is fifteen years old, two years younger than you, innocent and lively, usually not too big or too small.
, but she has no bad intentions. You two should get along well in the future."
Tiantian?
Seeing the intimacy between Hua Shi and her, Chu Yunli suddenly realized that Hua Shi had a daughter?
Aunt Lin didn't mention the question, and Fahrenhe probably forgot about it just now. Chu Yunli's smile did not change, "Hello, cousin Tiantian."
The three of them entered the main room together. Hua was very busy. He first asked people to clean up the garden for Chu Yunli, and then ordered people to prepare lunch. He also asked about the time when the Marquis would be back, probably because he wanted to be "a family" together.
Have a meal.
While they were talking lively, a young man and woman came in outside. The woman's bright red clothes were embroidered with silver thread, and her chin was slightly raised. It was obvious that she had a proud temperament.
However, not everyone can use the silver thread of this dynasty, it must be used by relatives of the emperor.
So, when they came back slowly, Wuning Houfu had already welcomed the princess into the house?
Looking at her in red, she is probably newlywed!
The two of them came closer. The man bowed slightly and said, "Mother." He looked up and saw Chu Yunli. His eyes lit up and he asked with a smile, "Who is this sister?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the princess next to him pinched his waist without leaving a trace. After his eyes went back and forth between Hua Shi and Chu Yunli several times, he looked at Chu Yunli again with a look full of evil, "Hou
Madam, who is this sister?"
