Du Yuerou was woken up by a strong fragrance. This smell was really not very pleasant, as if every molecule was trying its best to penetrate into the nasal cavity, and it was even accompanied by a suffocating and indescribable heartburn feeling.
"Ahem—" Du Yuerou finally opened her eyes and saw the roof of the carriage.
What's going on? She was confused, and even rubbed her eyes again, fearing that it was her hallucination... Wasn't she still sleeping in the inn just now? How could she be here again? Du Yuerou sat up in a panic, and found that
His hands and feet were tied up and he couldn't move at all.
What's going on? Could it be that she was kidnapped by a thief? She lay in the carriage in a panic. She wanted to shout but a piece of cloth was stuffed in her mouth. She had no choice but to bang against the wall of the carriage, hoping that someone would find out.
Something was wrong, but it didn't help. The carriage was still moving and had no intention of stopping.
She didn't know how long the collision lasted, which made her head feel dizzy and painful. Finally, she couldn't hold on anymore and fainted again.
…
"This is the most beautiful one today. It's worth ten thousand taels of silver after all, right? It's best to be quick and pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand. If this girl's family comes to find her, won't you suffer a big loss?"
"Okay, then you have to let me inspect the goods first. Are you sure it's a young lady? Don't let all married women come here and wrong my son."
"How is that possible? This girl looks like she is only sixteen years old, but what the boss told me is true. She is obviously a rich girl who ran away after a quarrel with her family."
"Rich lady? How much money do you have on you?"
"Well...hehe."
"Forget it, I won't tell you, I'll inspect the goods first." After saying this, Du Yuerou saw the car curtain in front of her eyes being opened, and then a rough-skinned old face came in. The man looked at
He is in his sixties, wearing a dark blue mandarin jacket and a somewhat old hat on his head.
The man looked Du Yuerou up and down. Although he was tied up and couldn't see his figure, looking at his snow-white skin and beautiful face, he was really not bluffing. Such a thing is indeed worth ten thousand taels.
of.
So he retreated again, and after some haggling with Ren Yazi, he bought Du Yuerou for eight thousand taels of silver.
Then, while Du Yuerou was still confused, two powerful men directly pulled her down. She couldn't struggle, but she accidentally spat out the cloth strip in her mouth and grabbed her.
When she got the chance, she immediately shouted: "Help!"
One of the mothers-in-law looked at her indifferently, and then slapped her in the face. She instantly felt a "buzzing" sound in her head, and then she fainted again.
The third time she woke up, she was in a dark room. The room was normal, but her hands and feet were still tied. Because they were tied too tightly and for too long, she couldn't even feel the existence of her hands and feet.
His hands were already tied and were black and blue.
She looked around and suddenly discovered something strange about this room. On the surface, it looked very ordinary, with a table and a bed. Except that the room itself was smaller, it was not much different from an inn. But until she saw the window,
It gradually started to feel strange.
The word "囍" is actually pasted on the window, and it's not just one, but a red one and a white one side by side. Not only does it not look happy at all, it's even very weird.
At this time, a woman opened the door and came in, bringing a bowl. Du Yuerou shrank warily, "Who are you?"
The mother-in-law looked at her indifferently and said nothing. She just mechanically handed the noodle bowl in front of her and said, "Eat quickly."
"I don't want to eat, what is this?" Du Yuerou was very vigilant. Her top priority now was to figure out where she was.
The old woman smiled, it was an extremely contemptuous smile, and she seemed to be mocking her. She said: "You will soon be a member of our Zhang family. Why, you can't even eat a bowl of noodles?"
Zhang family? What Zhang family?
Du Yuerou's face turned pale: "What do you mean?"
The old woman glanced at her and said calmly: "The eldest young master of the Zhang family is going to get a wife, and you are the destined good match for our eldest young master."
Zhang family? Is there anyone named Zhang in the capital? Du Yuerou was angry and confused. She opened her mouth and cursed: "What are you talking about? Do you know who I am? I am the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites, and I am the daughter of a nobleman. You
Who do you think you are, and you dare to let me get married?"
The old woman frowned, and her expression was indeed a little relaxed, but it was only for a moment. She quickly put on a straight face and said, "Do you think I will believe you when you say this? When you come to our Zhang Mansion, they will be members of our Zhang family.
.”
Everything that happened today was completely out of Du Yuerou's knowledge. Her life had always been full of flowers. The biggest setback in her life was that Fu Heng didn't like her.
"Then...I want to meet the eldest young master of the Zhang family." She thought for a while, feeling that maybe things would turn around.
The old woman gave her a strange look and said with unclear meaning: "You will see him soon."
"Now you have to eat the noodles first." The old woman passed the noodles forward again. Du Yuerou took a look and saw that the noodles were obviously raw, and the noodles were cooked too casually. It was just a bowl of water and a cup of water.
It was a half-cooked noodle with not even a speck of oil visible on the surface.
Although she is indeed a little hungry now, it is impossible for her to eat such a thing!
So, she turned her face away and said, "I won't eat it."
As if the mother-in-law had expected what she would say, she actually grabbed her chin and poured the noodle bowl into her mouth!
The water was boiling hot, and Du Yuerou couldn't struggle. She was so embarrassed. A lot of noodles were spilled on her body, and her mouth was burned with two blisters. However, no matter how she struggled or resisted, it was to no avail. In the end, even if she
My throat was broken by shouting, but no second person could enter the door.
Finally, half of the bowl of half-cooked noodles was poured in. Du Yuerou touched her burning neck and coughed non-stop. The mother-in-law took the empty bowl and saluted coldly: "I wish the eldest mistress and the eldest master will always be united."
, give birth to a precious son soon.”
What? Before Du Yuerou could react, the mother-in-law left, so fast that she didn't even have time to get out of bed and run out of the room.
What will happen tomorrow? Du Yuerou didn't know, and had no way of knowing. She didn't even know what she should do. The room was damp and cold, and the quilt was thin. She lay down slowly, moved her fingers vigorously, and touched
I touched myself and found that the money bag was indeed gone.
She remembered that the waiter in the shop had mentioned robbing money before, but now it didn't look like robbing money. What on earth were they going to do?
She stared at the white and red 囍 characters, and slowly fell asleep.
