She opened the box and found an exquisite long-life lock inside. It was made of jade and was extremely valuable. Jade was fragile, so she never took the long-life lock with her and locked it in the box. That year, my grandfather accidentally got a piece of white suet jade.
, I gave her a long-life lock, but it was a pity that a piece of jade in my hand could only make such a small set of long-life locks, and all the remaining materials became waste.
"Oh! Who do I think it is? It turns out to be Sun De. If you have breasts, you are the mother's master. I met you as soon as I entered the house. You really look like a natural slave."
Hearing his voice before seeing him, Qian Guanguan started shouting as he entered the inner courtyard. He only finished his sentence when he stepped into the house with one foot. Qian Guanguan's shout instantly brought Chu Yunjing's mood back.
Chu Yunjing immediately became cold-faced after hearing this. Just as he was sending off one person, another one came and he was worried.
They are all slaves, who is richer than the other, and she despises Qian Guanguan's sarcastic appearance the most. When Sun De works in the capital, he naturally hides his motives, and his kindness to Qian Guanguan is just for her sake.
I'm so ignorant, I really treat myself like a green onion.
"You are such a shrewd girl, and you are always rude. When you return to the Chu Mansion in two days, you will be beaten eight hundred times a day like this." Si Yu smiled and took away the cool tea and replaced it.
Si Yu didn't take it seriously and even joked with Qian Guanguan, but Chu Yunjing, who had lowered his head and had not had an attack, already had a gloomy look on his face.
Chu Yunjing sometimes felt that this little girl who liked to be superior and to be inferior to others had a fear of being abandoned that was very similar to her own when she was a child, which was why he accepted her in the first place.
A child was alone, and the closest people around him were thinking about how to sell him at a good price. Chu Yunjing felt sorry for him from the bottom of his heart.
It’s just that later this girl was too bully, which was contrary to her master’s restrained and careful style, which was always a bad thing. Chu Yunjing always did things carefully and carefully. This girl didn’t keep her mouth shut, and would take advantage of her as long as she felt she had the upper hand.
Block others with words, no matter whether they are Chu Yunjing's secret or not.
Qian Guanguan entered the house and took off his cloak first. Hearing Si Yu's words, he stopped taking off his cloak. He stared at his eyes and asked doubtfully: "In two days? Go back to Chu Mansion?"
"That's right. In previous years, the government would send people to come in spring, but this time they came in the twelfth lunar month of winter, just to take the young lady back." Si Yu was busy and just put the tea cup away when she came to take Qian Guan's hand.
Look at the cloak in your hand.
Qian Guanguan brushed off the cold air from his body, walked up to Chu Yunjing, saluted, and said with a smile, "Just send it away, the young lady must not want to go back."
She pressed her head down and didn't reply, and the people around her couldn't see her expression.
Si Yu nodded: "Today is different from the past. This time, I have been given a marriage by a nobleman in the palace, and I want to marry King Qi."
Qian Guanguan suddenly raised his head and exclaimed: "Master Tian, what kind of king? Prince? My young lady is going to become... the empress of the Tian family? I can't even dream of it."
"Isn't that right? The young lady is getting older, and the palace has granted her a marriage. There is no way she can escape this time." Si Yu sighed, she only wanted to be her own young lady.
Si Yu remembered something, turned around and asked, "Have all the gifts been delivered?"
Qian Guanguan temporarily suppressed the joy on his face, and his eyes became a little brighter, with a look of pride on his face, just waiting for his master's praise.
"It's been delivered. The slaves have sent it to them one by one. Mrs. Wu is the governor's wife after all. She is very generous. Several other adults have also been sent there. It's just that Mr. Zhuang's wife is sick and I haven't seen him. The Tan family...
....”
Mentioning the Tan family, Qian Guanguan's face was filled with hatred and his eyes were venomous: "Huh, we were sending this for the sake of his family, but we actually saw that Tan Huaxian. She was so unreasonable. Normally she would
She is used to bullying others, but today she just threw things out and kicked out some slaves. It really slapped our family in the face and made me so angry. The young lady has never seen her show off her power, but she is just a
The poor little official's family is not enough to carry shoes for our Chu family. If the slave girl wants to see it, she should shave her arrogant face and throw her into a brothel to let..."
"enough!"
Qian Guanguan gritted his teeth and spoke louder and louder, which later turned into a vicious curse.
Chu Yunjing couldn't bear to listen anymore and interrupted sharply. Her eyes were already full of anger, and just one sound made Qian Guanguan panic.
Qian Guanguan only knew that he was wrong and did not understand where he went wrong. He only felt a chill on his back.
She reprimanded in a deep voice: "You are so vicious when you open your mouth and shut up. Do you really look like a girl? Let me ask you, if you give gifts properly and don't provoke Mrs. Tan, will she kick you out of the house? She keeps saying it over and over again.
You said you slapped my family in the face, who went out to cause trouble?"
The Tan family has always been unruly and always refused to deal with Chu Yunjing. She was defeated every time she provoked him. But after all, the Tan family is a lady from an official family. She should not be so ignorant when dealing with the family. She must have money.
In view of the provocative elements, she must educate the evil slave who provokes right and wrong.
Qian Guanguan knelt down quickly in panic, his eyes froze, and he turned pale and said in shock: "Slave... I just feel that... I feel that Mr. Tan is used to being arrogant, and I want to do it for Miss...
"Take a breath, slave... I didn't mean it." Qian Guanguan was already in tears at this moment, "I hope the lady can calm down."
Chu Yunjing's face turned red with anger, and he stared at Qian Guanguan angrily, as if he wanted to use his anger to eat up Qian Guanguan: "You still want me to calm down? Why don't you think about it when you go out to provoke others? Why don't you think about it when you come back to confuse right and wrong?
?You dare to mention the Chu family? This is the Yuan Mansion. If the Chu family is so good, why should I come to Yongzhou to foster care? You know everything and start making nonsense. You look like you are following someone's influence. You are so looking forward to returning to Kyoto.
How about marrying me for me, and it will be fulfilled for you."
She knocked down the newly renewed silver cup on the table, and the tea spilled on the floor with a clang. She rarely got so angry. Usually, even if Qian Guanguan was not appropriate, he would just say a few words, but now it was touched.
Her bad luck.
Anger radiated from her whole body, and she was as cold as a flower-like girl. The majesty between her eyebrows was rare, but she looked a bit like a queen.
Si Yu also knelt down quickly, also very frightened: "Miss, calm down. If Guan Guan makes a mistake, I will punish her. Miss, don't get so angry."
Qian Guanguan kowtowed tightly, unable to breathe even when he cried: "It's all my slave's fault...it's my fault...ahem...master can punish me...
My slave...don't hurt yourself."
She was silent for a moment, her anger subsided a little, she put aside the money, took a look, and sat down with her clothes on.
Si Yu brought some new tea: "Miss, let's take a sip of tea to calm down."
It is undeniable that Qian Guanguan is smart. Although he sometimes has some twisted thoughts, he is very efficient in doing things and can make wisecracks. In the eyes of outsiders, Qian Guanguan is more likable than Si Yu. The contrast between the two is sharp, and one is smart.
Smart and honest, these two people complement each other very well.
Her tone was much calmer: "Are you willing to punish you to wash clothes in the backyard for a month?"
Qian Guanguan nodded as if he was grasping a life-saving straw, his nose filled with tears and he said: "I am willing to do it. I am very willing to do it. I just hope that the lady will not send me away. I am willing to do anything."
"I am a slave born in the countryside. If the young lady hadn't saved me at the temple fair five years ago... I would have been sold out by my black-hearted... black-hearted father. Thanks to the young lady, I don't mind...
..Give me the opportunity to serve the lady... As long as I can be by the lady's side... No matter what the lady wants me to do... I am willing to do it..."
Qian Guanguan sobbed and cried intermittently. These words were like her shield. She took advantage of Chu Yunjing's weakness. Cheng Yaojin would feel sorry for her as long as she said these words.
Chu Yunjing waved his hands impatiently. When Qian Guanguan saw this, he didn't dare to speak, got up and walked outside the house.
Less than half an hour after Sun De left, three carriages stopped at the door of the Yuan family. The first one belonged to the second daughter of the Yuan family, Yuan Jingchuan, the second one belonged to the master of the Yuan family, Yuan Shi, and the third one belonged to the Yuan family.
It belongs to the young master Yuan Ting.
The three of them returned to the Yuan Mansion, and Chu Yunjing was sent to the central hall.
It was already dusk. The twelfth lunar month in Yongzhou was not colder than in Kyoto, but the cool wind was sharp. There was no snow in Yongzhou all year round. Chu Yunjing had not seen snow in many years. Apart from vaguely remembering seeing snow in Chu Mansion when he was a child, and in the past few years,
Grandpa went to Jizhou and caught up with the heavy snow. At that time, there was a snowstorm and the roads were blocked due to heavy snow. He stayed in Jizhou for more than a month before leaving.
Chu Yunjing wrapped herself in a lotus-pink cloak and led Si Yu to the front courtyard and central hall.
When he arrived at the central hall, he looked out the door and saw a woman in dark clothes getting out of the car from a distance. Chu Yunjing stopped caring about being dignified, picked up his skirt and ran towards the person in a hurry.
"Aunt." Chu Yunching recognized Yuan Jingchuan from a distance and called outside.
"Hey!" Yuan Jingchuan was being teased by the servants, and he responded even to the shouts.
Seeing Chu Yunjing arriving.
"Xiao Jing... I will come back as soon as I get the letter, but is it true?" Yuan Jingchuan held Chu Yunching's hand and asked anxiously.
"Yes." Chu Yunjing nodded, pursed his lips, feeling a little aggrieved.
Perhaps in front of these real family members, she can put away the sharp points on her body, reveal her soft side, and wait for the love of her relatives.
"Why is it so cold? Let's go inside and talk."
Chu Yunching pulled Yuan Jingchuan into the middle hall and asked her to sit down. He ordered someone to bring Tang Pozi, and he tried a handful of hot soup and put it in Yuan Jingchuan's hand.
Apart from her aunt and grandpa, I'm afraid no one in this world can care about her.
Mrs. Tang had just been warmed up here, and Yuan Shi came back over there. He entered the central hall looking dusty and tired: "My grandpa resigned after my servants finished passing the message and Master Wu came back. Why is it so sudden?"
The servant took off Yuan Shi's brown cloak, and the servant had already brought hot tea. Yuan Shi hurriedly sat down on the Grand Master's chair in the main seat, took a sip of hot tea, and then exhaled a breath of cold air.
Today Yuan Shi went to the governor's office of Yongzhou. The governor of Yongzhou told several prominent families in Yongzhou to talk and make some necessary connections by the end of the year.
"Hey... It is said that... the nobles in the palace ordered me personally. How do we know the reason why we are far away in Yongzhou?" Chu Yunjing shook his head.
Yuan Jingchuan was about to speak, but someone stopped him.
"If the Chu family wants to marry us, we can still hide. This palace has issued an order, so how can we resist it." The person who spoke was Chu Yunjing's uncle Yuan Ting. Yuan Ting walked into the house with a frown on his face, full of mid-term expressions.
Talking.
Yuan Shi had three children in total, one boy and two girls. His son was the eldest, Chu Yunching's mother was the second, and Yuan Jingchuan was the third.
Yuan Ting has a happy backyard with four children.
Yuan Jingchuan was married in his early years, but later they divorced due to a disagreement. The Yuan family's business was in great need of manpower, and Yuan Jingchuan was very capable, so he followed his father and his brother took care of the Yuan family's business.
Chu Yunjing is not close to Yuan Ting. Chu Yunjing doesn't know why he always feels an inexplicable sense of alienation every time he sees this uncle. Usually when they meet, they just salute and call uncle, and say a few polite words.
No more. Yuan Ting's children are also in his own house and rarely interact with Chu Yunjing.
"Uncle said that the marriage is finalized." Chu Yunching said helplessly.
"When did the Chu family tell you to leave?" Yuan Ting walked to the seat opposite Yuan Jingchuan and sat on the chair on the lower left side of the central hall.
"Three days later." Chu Yunjing's palm-sized face was already filled with sorrow.
