"Please come in, Auntie." As soon as An Zhi finished his words, a woman in her late twenties opened the door and walked in. She was wearing an aqua dress with her hair held up by a hairpin. She was simple and generous. She saw the concern in An Zhi's eyes.
It was true at all, and he asked with concern, "I heard that Madam is making things difficult for you again, and you even made a move with Madam."
"Auntie, please be patient." An Zhixin poured her a cup of tea and said calmly, "It wasn't me who took the initiative to attack her, but she went too far. She hit Xue Xin without even saying a word. I'm really angry.
I just moved my hand."
"Madam is narrow-minded and I can't stand you normally. Now you are going against her again. How will you live in this house in the future?" Aunt Xue said worriedly.
An Zhi picked up the dim sum on the table without a care and said while eating, "If I don't fight her, will she make it easier for me?"
Aunt Xue concluded her words, looked at An Zhi and touched her forehead, and said, "Second Miss, you..."
"Aunt Xue." An Zhi took her hand away from his forehead and said, "I'm not sick, I just want to understand that if she won't let me feel better, then no one else will feel better. No matter what,
, I am really the second young lady of An Mansion, what can she do to me? I have already died once, and yet I am afraid of her, a person who is afraid of death."
"Children's family is so immortal." Aunt Xue said displeasedly. Seeing that An Zhi was not as wilted as usual, she was in much better spirits, but her temperament had changed a lot. She thought she was stimulated.
Before leaving, he asked Xue Xin to take good care of her.
Sure enough, Yasuda has never caused trouble to her since that time, but she did meet two annoying people, sister and brother An Xin and An Haohan. Although they are not as annoying as Yasuda, they are very childish.
"Why did I say that there were crows cawing early in the morning? It turns out you are here." An Xin said. An Haohan, who was only five or six years old, also looked at An Zhi with hostility. Last time, he was the nominal second sister.
He still remembered the debt for hurting his mother.
"Indeed, I heard a crow calling just now." An Zhi said, picking her ears. She had seen many such little tricks in the palace, and they were all left over from her playing.
"Who do you think is the crow?" An Xin Liuye asked angrily with a raised eyebrow.
"Of course it's up to who to tell." An Zhi gave her a half-hearted smile, and then prepared to leave with Xue Xin. It was really not worth it to disturb such a beautiful weather.
An Haohan saw his sister being bullied, so he secretly picked up a pebble and threw it at An Zhi. An Zhi, who had noticed it already, turned slightly to one side, hid, and struck back with his backhand, hitting An Haohan on the forehead.
, a red bump suddenly appeared on Bai Bai's forehead. The pain made him cry immediately, causing the servants to come over to comfort him.
An Zhi stepped into the hall and felt something was wrong with the atmosphere. He saw An Wen sitting angrily on the main seat. Looking at An Zhi coming in, he shouted angrily, "Don't come in yet!"
"Dad, is there something wrong with calling your daughter here?" An Zhi glanced at the aggrieved An Haohan nestled in Yasuda's arms and knew what was going on. This was the time to investigate.
"Look at the good things you did!" An Wen said with distress as he watched his son whom he usually beat while holding it in the palm of his hand, "You actually hurt your brother like this."
"Dad!" An Zhi's eyes widened in grievance, and tears immediately welled up, "Where do you start talking about this? I only met the eldest sister and the younger brother in the garden today, and we just exchanged a few words. Why did the younger brother get hurt?
Could it be that dad thinks so?
My daughter was injured." An Zhi was really grateful for the weakness of this body. As soon as tears came out, Chu Chu looked at An Wen pitifully. He looked so weak that people couldn't blame him. "If dad doesn't believe it, you can ask the maids and maids in the garden.
Young man."
An Wenwen looked at his aggrieved daughter with big eyes filled with tears, and a face that looked like his late wife. He thought of his late wife's kindness, and his heart immediately softened. He asked, "It wasn't you, why did Han'er
Said you were the one who hit me."
"My daughter doesn't know either." An Zhi lowered his head, looking timid, and then glanced timidly at Yasuda, silent. An Anwen was not blind, and saw his little daughter's fear and uneasiness, and glanced at
He glanced at Yasuda who was standing aside and said, "Next time, let the servants watch Han'er and don't let him be naughty."
"Yes." Mr. Yasuda said with a low eyebrow, watching An Zhi gnashing his teeth. He didn't expect that this girl would become so sharp-tongued. That look was really just right, clearly telling the master that she was the one who ordered her.
"Master, master." A servant hurriedly walked in and said, "Princess Zi Ling has arrived in Xishui and invited all the rich ladies in Xishui to go to the county lord's mansion to have a talk."
As soon as he heard Ye Fuxun's name, An Zhi was startled. He raised his head and saw that his mother was here. He felt joy in his heart. His eyes fell on Yasuda's face and saw the uncontrollable smile on her face.
, I sneered in my heart, as a ninth grader
The wife of a junior official would not have the chance to meet a legendary figure like Princess Zi Ling on ordinary days. Naturally, Yasuda would hold her daughter tightly and let her climb up, maybe she would fall into the eyes of some noble person.
From then on it was smooth sailing.
"Master, this is good news." Mr. Yasuda said with joy, not caring about An Zhi, "Let Xin'er dress up and go quickly."
"There's no rush." An Wen said, stroking his beard, "This Princess Ziling is no ordinary person. I'm afraid of Xin'er..."
"Master, what are you afraid of?" Yasuda said, "Our Xin'er is the most talented and beautiful among the rich ladies in Xi Shui, and her etiquette is second to none."
An Xin looked up and down, and when he saw his daughter behaved generously, he nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at his little daughter, standing in the hall, not as timid as before, she still looked delicate, but she gave people a
The feeling of being a lady made him couldn't help but look at her a few more times and said, "My son, let's go with him."
"Master, the second young lady's temperament is too delicate. When she meets Princess Ziling, I'm afraid..."
"Although my son has a softer temper, Lan'er taught me the etiquette and rules myself." An'anwen's words made Yasuda blush. This meant that her daughter's rules and etiquette were not as good as those taught by a dead man.
"Thank you, dad." Anzhi didn't expect that Anzhi would let him go. It seemed like her father wasn't that bad. After Anzhi's words, Yasuda didn't dare to refute, so he could only agree.
"Miss, do you think you would like to wear this water-red dress?" Xue Xin took out all the clothes in An Zhi's cabinet and hurriedly selected them, while An Zhi sat aside and didn't know what to think about.
I was lost in thought.
Xuexin called out three times before An Zhi responded. He looked at the skirt and said, "No, this one is too gorgeous." His eyes fell on the lake blue brocade skirt aside, "This one is fine."
"That's fine." Xuexin picked it up and put it on for An Zhi. She turned around and saw Aunt Xue standing at the door with a smile on her face. She hurriedly saluted and said, "Aunt Xue."
Aunt Xue walked in with a sandalwood box, looked at An Zhi and said with a smile, "I heard that the master asked the second young lady to attend Princess Zi Ling's banquet. I have a hairpin here that matches your clothes today."
An Zhi looked down and saw an emerald hairpin lying in the sandalwood box, with fine workmanship.
"Auntie, this is your dowry." Xuexin said.
"I can't accept this. I still have jewelry here." An Zhi pushed it over.
Aunt Xue smiled, gently pressed An Zhi in front of the dressing table, and inserted the hairpin into her dark hair, "My dowry is not limited to this one piece. This piece of jewelry suits you well. Auntie, give it to you."
Just take it."
"I have no children." Aunt Xue said, her eyes dimming, and her right hand slowly covered her belly. There was once a life here, but she failed to protect it. "I will never have one in this life."
"But it doesn't matter." Aunt Xue looked at An Zhixiuling's little face and said with a smile, "In my heart, you are my daughter."
"Auntie." An Zhi's nose felt sore, she held back the tears in her eyes and nodded.
It was the first time that Princess Ziling invited the ladies of various families to the fiefdom. The banquet was naturally very lively. The daughters of each family were all dressed up and wanted to use all their skills to make Princess Ziling look at her differently.
An Xin wore the latest style of dress from Qiluo Pavilion, wore a step-wag on her head, and wore delicate makeup on her twisted face. She really stood out among the many girls. Seeing that An Zhi was only wearing an ordinary piece of clothing,
He raised his head slightly, hummed and walked in with the maid. An Zhi shrugged slightly and said to Xuexin, "Let's go."
After so many years, she once again stepped into the County Lord's Mansion. It felt like a lifetime ago. The scenery that caught her eye was familiar yet strange. She had lived here for ten years, and the familiarity was engraved in her bones.
"What kind of place is this?" Anzhi stood in front of a unique courtyard. In her impression, the county lord's palace did not have such a courtyard, and she still liked the style. The maid who led the way stopped and said, "This is what the princess built for the princess."
's yard.”
"Princess Princess?"
An Zhi said with disappointment, "The princess really dotes on the little princess."
"It's not the little princess." The maid said, "It's the deceased Princess Luo'an. In order to commemorate Princess Luo'an, the princess specially built this courtyard in the county princess's mansion and named it Nianyuan. Every year, the princess will live here for a period of time.
, inside are some things that the princess used before."
An Zhi was startled, and her mind turned over and over again. It turned out that her mother had never forgotten her.
"Miss." Xuexin gently pulled An Zhi, who looked a little sad, to remind her to follow. The maid led her through the nine-curved corridor until they stopped at the flower-filled garden. Here, in order to entertain the ladies, Qingruo
