Chapter 10 True and false daughter 10(1/2)
The meeting ended because of Xiao Yajun's dismay. Before leaving, Mrs. Xiao's eyes could spit out fire when she looked at Ayu.
The old lady was so angry that Ayu Shen was so refreshed that she didn't care about Mrs. Xiao's likes and dislikes. But in this dynasty that emphasizes filial piety, it is inevitable that she will be passive. It is impossible to let her give in and please this old lady who is hostile to her.
He picked up a corner of the car curtain and looked out the window at the snow-covered fields, making up his mind that there was imperial power above filial piety.
You's worries were tilted on the soft pillow, and the previous situation was lingering in front of you. Yu'er said she didn't want to see Yajun, and You could understand it. She had also seen Zhou and his wife. Yajun's eyebrows and eyes were traces of her biological parents. When she saw Yajun, she would involuntarily think of Zhou and his wife, and then she would think of the couple's various evil deeds.
She couldn't bear to take revenge on Yajun for the evil deeds of the Zhou couple, but she could not dote on Yajun as much as she used to. She no longer knew how to deal with her adopted daughter.
Be apart and be nice to all of them. Go to another place and change your name. Yajun doesn't have to be implicated by the infamous reputation of her biological parents. She can start over.
However, judging from Mrs. Xiao's attitude, she was reluctant to let Yajun leave. After this time, the old lady was afraid of being blamed for Yuer.
No matter how deliberately avoid it in the future, it is inevitable to meet again. If Yuer is still as strong as today and spreads it, Yuer will be stabbed by someone.
After careful consideration, You said slowly: "Yuer, that's your grandmother after all."
Ayu lowered the curtains and half-drinkled his eyelids to state the facts: "The old lady doesn't like me."
You felt sad. How could she not notice Mrs. Xiao’s dislike for her daughter?
"In the eyes of the old lady, I am not the granddaughter who has been lost, but the invader who has destroyed her and Xiao Yajun's peaceful and beautiful life." Ayu presented the facts to You in a straightforward and cruel manner.
You wanted to explain, but he was speechless and said for a while: "Yajun was raised by your grandmother. You understand. The old lady is old. As the saying goes, "Old children are old."
"I understand, I was impulsive today." Ayu smiled playfully: "What will the old lady say in the future? I will just go in and out of the ear."
You clapped her hand pitifully: "I feel wronged."
Ayu chuckled softly: "I don't feel wronged if my parents love me." The more dissatisfied Mrs. Xiao was with her, the more she felt sorry for her.
You's eyes were even more pity.
It was not until the Chinese New Year that Ayu met Mrs. Xiao again. It was probably because of the last unbearable experience. Mrs. Xiao did not try to soften Ayu again, but just ignored her.
Ayu was panicked and fell into the eyes of others, and he couldn't help but sympathize with him. Everyone in the mansion knew that Mrs. Xiao loved Xiao Yajun the most. Even if it was proved that she was not a granddaughter, Mrs. Xiao's love for Xiao Yajun increased instead, and was far above her granddaughter. No one was jealous. Now, when she saw that Ayu, who should be compensated the most, couldn't get it well for Mrs. Xiao, and was treated coldly. She had to mutter a few words, and was closer to Ayu and even more excluded Xiao Yajun.
Even though Mrs. Xiao was not happy, as the official daughter of the Marquis' Mansion and supported by the Marquis of Jinghai and You, Ayu was still free and easy.
However, Xiao Yajun, who followed Mrs. Xiao back home, was not justified and was in a very awkward situation. Xiao Yajun always felt that the eyes that fell on her were full of profound meaning, making her feel like a thorn on her back.
You were full of guilt, and Ayu's accusations were still heard, but Mrs. Xiao turned a deaf ear to her and took Xiao Yajun back to the mansion in a noble manner. Only Mrs. Xiao is an elder, and the New Year's Day cannot make the old man get angry and take Xiao Yajun to a different village.
Because of this guilt, the You family and the Marquis of Jinghai gave Ayu a lot of good things.
Ayu was playing with the white fox cloak that Marquis Jinghai had just sent by someone. In fact, she felt that Xiao Yajun was asking for trouble when she came back. When she returned to the Marquis' mansion, Xiao Yajun had to face the huge gap caused by the change of identity, as well as various gazes, and other meaningful words.
Especially when they are under the same roof, few people do not compare the two quietly.
Once upon a time, the original body was so overwhelmed by such a thing.
Now, the one who was breathless has become Xiao Yajun.
Ayu learned everything at a glance, and made rapid progress. It was a surprise that she was delayed for her best time. The Zhou couple were dragged out again and again, and she had to take care of Xiao Yajun.
"Grandma, I want to go back to the village." Xiao Yajun finally couldn't stand such torture. She cut her flesh with a soft knife and killed people without blood.
Mrs. Xiao was shocked: "Is someone bullying you? Is it Yayu?"
"No." Xiao Yajun felt bitter. Ayu never bullied her. She just ignored her. Instead, the sisters who had been together in the past changed their faces and sarcastically squeezed her.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Xiao asked.
Tears blurred her gaze, Xiao Yajun choked and said, "Grandma, I want to go back to another village."
Mrs. Xiao was anxious and asked her if she couldn't ask, so she asked Wutong.
Wutong complained indignantly, first the eighth girl was arrogant, then the fifth girl was sarcastic, and the sixth girl was sarcastic.
Mrs. Xiao was so angry that she wanted to teach her a lesson.
Xiao Yajun was so anxious that she cried, which would only make the sisters hate her even more severely. Xiao Yajun was crying and begging hard, crying that the old lady Xiao’s internal organs were tied together, and she had to let go and allow her to go back to her village.
Without Xiao Yajun, this old lady Xiao lived a terrible life. As soon as she went out for fifteen, she immediately packed her luggage and went to another village.
After the first month of the year, Ayu also proposed to leave the house.
Ayu's reason is: "I have too many things to learn. There are so many social events in the mansion that make people unable to calm down."
You felt it was reasonable. When she was in her current state, she was a little deficient when she went out. You also heard one or two unpleasant comments. If you live and move your energy, nourish your body, and carefully raise your daughter for one or two years, your daughter will have earth-shaking changes, and then it will definitely make people look at you with admiration.
After thinking about this, You took Ayu and his wife to Cuiwei Villa in his name, and one of the hot spring villages of Mrs. Xiao, one of them in the east and the other in the west, so as not to encounter them by chance.
You accompanied Ayu to stay in the villa for a few days. Seeing that she was well adapted, she was about to go back to the house. Before leaving, she sincerely reminded her: "My parents will come to see you when they have time. When they miss home, they will come back to stay for a few days. What do you need? Just send someone to say."
"Don't worry, I'm in the capital, where are you?" Ayu chuckled.
You laughed and felt that she had made a big fuss. After her daughter came back, she never separated from her. You really didn't get used to it, and she was even more worried, but the children always had to grow up.
You left with a loss.
After You left, Ayu worked as a good student for a few days. Suddenly one day, she came back from a walk outside and asked to find a carpenter.
The manager of the villa was confused, but he still found an experienced carpenter as he said.
"Can you make out the things on this drawing?" Ayu handed a drawing to the carpenter, with a hoe on it, a farm tool that loosened the soil, saving time and effort than existing farm tools.
Renovating agricultural tools is only the first step, and increasing grain production is the goal. In this era, the high dependence on land was beyond imagination. It can even be said that the fate of a dynasty depends on land harvest. Good weather will lead to peace and peace in the country. In bad times, hunger will lead to difficulties in national progress.
Once the increase in production is successful, one of the original wishes - becoming the pride of the You family, can be achieved.
Back then, Mrs. Xiao pointed at her nose and scolded her god daughter Wufang, because she was ridiculed by a lot of original body. The little girl felt guilty towards her mother and wanted to regain her face that she had thrown away, and earned her back little by little.
Ayu not only wanted the mother of You to be noble, but also wanted to make Mrs. Xiao polite. Even if King Gong's luck was against the will of heaven, he would still follow the original trajectory, so that he would not dare to sprinkle salt on her wounds in order to please his lover. Of course, this was the worst plan, so she would not give King Gong the chance to gain power.
The carpenter looked at the drawings carefully, but did not dare to make a promise, and only said that he could try it.
Ayu asked him to try it, and it took a month to try it. It was not because the carpenter was poor, but because Ayu didn't give a complete drawing at once. The experiment could not succeed in one fell swoop. Of course, it had to go through countless failures before it achieved hard-won success.
During this period, Mr. Zhu strongly condemned Ayu's incompetence for his inappropriate work. He was heartbroken because Ayu did not study hard and even abandoned his studies on such strange tricks and tricks, which was a waste of her talent.
Ayu has a good temper and listens to the training, so he should do what he should do.
There were many servants in the villa who talked about it, saying in a subtle tone: "After all, I grew up in the countryside."
In their opinion, if Ayu doesn't be her daughter in the Marquis's Mansion and torture these carpenters, he will be self-destructive.
In this era, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and industry were after farmers.
Mr. Zhu, who heard the rumors, finally couldn't bear it anymore and complained to the Jinghai Hou and You who came to visit Ayu, hoping that they would take care of Ayu.
Marquis Jinghai frowned slightly and asked Ayu: "What do you want to make?"
You's smoothing out: "What a kid, I'm just having fun, but I still have to focus on my studies."
Ayu pinched his fingers and said embarrassedly: "I'm not playing, I want to make a hoe."
Now even You frowned.
Ayu whispered softly: "That day I went out and saw the farmers working hard to hoe the ground," his expression slightly dim: "I have hoeed the ground before, and I knew that the life was hard. After a day, my hands could be blistered. At that time, I wanted to have a more convenient and labor-saving tool. When I was free, I thought a lot, but I never had the chance to test it before. After thinking about it that day, I wanted to try it. If it succeeds, it can help some people."
The Marquis of Jinghai, You and Mr. Zhu, were silent for a moment.
You suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He held Ayu's daughter and rubbed her palms carefully. Her daughter's hands were not as soft as herself, leaving traces of hard work.
Mr. Zhu felt bad when he heard this. He was a proud daughter of heaven, but he fell into the countryside and suffered all the hardships. A girl's house was going to hoe the ground. He cleared his throat: "Miss Eight is innocent." Although he still didn't think she could do anything, this intention was rare and precious.
Ayu smiled shyly.
Marquis Jinghai didn't think Ayu could do anything useful, but he was reluctant to hit her, so he said, "You can relax in your spare time, don't put down your homework."
Ayu smiled and took a little bit of cuteness that his little daughter showed off: "Do you want to go and have a look?"
The Marquis of Jinghai and the You family naturally have to support them.
Ayu took them to the carpenter's place with great enthusiasm, like a child who couldn't wait to show his toys to his friends.
It is rare to see her so childish, and Marquis Jinghai and Yu couldn't help laughing.
Before I could get there, I saw a person rushing over in excitement: "It's done, it's done!"
Ayu was happy and said: "Have you done it successfully?"
The visitor nodded like pounding garlic, and found that Marquis of Jinghai and You were so happy to pay their respects.
Marquis Jinghai was curious: "What happened?" Could it be that Ayu mentioned the tool for hoeing the ground. Thinking of this person's overjoyed expression, Marquis Jinghai's face changed slightly.
"Return to the Marquis, the hoe has been completed. The young people have tried it. Using this thing to hoe the ground is seven or eight times faster than before."
Marquis Jinghai's eyes lit up: "Where is it?"
The man quickly got up and led the three to a field.
"Is this a hoe?" Jing Haihou looked at the wooden shelf placed in the middle.
Ayu nodded: "It is to combine the cart and the hoe, so I randomly named it the hoe." Historically, this tool was called the hoe, and its appearance greatly improved the efficiency of hoe species.
Ayu asked someone to demonstrate it again.
After seeing the effect of this tool with one's own eyes, Jing'an Hou was overjoyed. If this thing was promoted to the whole country, it would be a blessing for the people.
Marquis Jinghai looked at Ayu's eyes as if glowing: "Good boy, the people in the world will thank you."
"It's everyone's credit. I asked many old farmers, and they gave me a lot of advice, as well as craftsmen. How could I think of it alone without everyone's help?" Ayu said.
