He was slender and weak, with a pointed melon-seeded face and big black eyes, which took up almost half of his face, and his expression was timid and a little apprehensive. Mrs. Zhen Guogong was half lying on the bed, looking at the "daughter" her husband had retrieved for her, she sighed slightly in her heart.
Yes, she already knew the "scheme" of her husband and the eldest son. On the second day after they negotiated, Jun Miao'er revealed the news to her a little uneasy. She also knew Jun Miao'er's careful thoughts. If she wanted to adopt her name as her daughter, no one could replace her daughter's position. Her daughter, she doesn't know where she is suffering, how can she let others enjoy everything that Bo'er deserves
Looking at the thin, poor little girl in front of her, she seemed to see her daughter's yellow face and thin skin, and she was obedient. Jun's heart suddenly aches! With tears in his eyes, he gently beckoned the little girl to come over.
Ding Fang'er hesitated for a moment, then quietly cast her eyes on the handsome and tall Prince Zhenguo. She is the daughter of an ordinary peasant family in Dingwa Village. She has many children and is living in poverty. When she was seven or eight years old, she helped the family with the work, and was proficient in everything from hogweed, fire, cooking, and laundry. The family was too poor, and the eldest brother was almost twenty before marrying a daughter-in-law, so she voluntarily sold herself as a maid, and exchanged money for the eldest brother to marry a daughter-in-law.
Just the day after she was bought by Renya, this god-like man came to her and asked her to pretend to be his young and lost little sister, and let her remember the fabricated life experience in detail. Later, she learned that this was the great general with great military exploits, the son of Duke Zhenguo. ,
The Prince of Zhenguo promised her that if she did a good job, he would make Mrs. Zhenguo happy, that he would arrange a good marriage for her in the future, prepare a generous dowry for her, and give her parents a sum of money to let them Live a good life without worrying about food and clothing.
Although Ding Fang'er was a little timid, the superior treatment gave her the courage to agree to the request of Prince Zhenguo. She knew that the younger sister of Prince Zhenguo's son was separated from her family when she was in a baby. Mrs. Zhenguo didn't know what her daughter looked like. And the reason she was selected was because she had big eyes that were two points similar to Mrs. Zhenguo's.
Ding Fang'er was taken from the small town in the north to the prosperous capital, like a dream. Especially when she saw the towering and majestic Zhumen of Duke Zhen Guo, the layers of courtyards, the fairyland-like gardens, pavilions, and pavilions, she pinched herself hard, only to be sure that this was not a dream!
Under the care of a few maids who were even whiter and more beautiful than her, she washed and bathed, and put on dresses that were more gorgeous and beautiful than the county magistrates in the city. Standing in front of the mirror, looking at her unfamiliar self, Ding Fang'er felt very complicated. Huang Liang Yi Meng, she played the life of others. For a moment, she greedily thought: If she is the lost daughter of the Chu family, how wonderful!
However, this thought was only fleeting. She knew that only playing her role honestly was the right way out for her. In her heart, she silently recalled the rhetoric that she was already familiar with, and soon, she was brought to Mrs. Zhenguo.
Mrs. Zhenguo is very beautiful, and her smile is very gentle, which makes people forget the tension unconsciously. Thinking of the mother at home who always yelled at her to do this and that, she felt that the lady in front of her was more in line with her definition of "mother".
Jun Shi took the little girl's hands. Those little hands were rough and chapped, and the knuckles were red and swollen. Her heart hurts her daughter again. Will she be suffering from poverty and hard life like the little girl in front of her
When Ding Fanger saw Mrs. Zhenguo crying silently, she panicked and looked at what the prince should do, she made Mrs. Zhenguo cry!
Ding Fang'er whispered softly, "Mrs. Husband?"
Junshi wiped his eyes with a handkerchief and squeezed out a smile: "Silly child, you should call me mother. You have suffered all these years!" After speaking, Junshi choked up again. Through the little girl in front of her, she seemed to see her hard-working daughter, a daughter who had not been blessed for a few days.
"No Fang'er is not bitter." Ding Fang'er remembered her mission to make Mrs. Zhen Guo happy, and she recalled the well-remembered words in her heart, "Although my family is a little poor, my parents love me, my brothers let me My brothers and sisters are also obedient. Fang'er doesn't feel bitter mother at all, you, please stop crying."
Hearing this, Jun Shi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, showed a gentle smile, took her hand, and asked her how much land, how many people, what to eat, and what to do every day. From the little girl's answer, she pieced together the twelve years of her daughter's life.
Perhaps, her daughter's life will be better. When entrusting her daughter to Lanxiang, she hurriedly gave her jewelry and the money she carried to that loyal maid. She knew Lan Xiang's temperament and would not do anything harsh to her daughter. With all the money, Lan Xiang and her daughter should be better off than this little girl. Thinking of this, the gloom on Jun's brows dissipated.
Seeing this, Duke Zhenguo and Dashao Chu felt a lot more at ease.
"Madam, it's time for you to drink the medicine!" Jun's eldest maid, Pan'er, came in with a bowl of warm water and a porcelain bottle. She skillfully took out a pill from the porcelain bottle, pinched the outer wax shell, and broke the pill into pieces the size of a fingernail. Jun Shi took these medicines with warm water, rinsed his mouth, and his eyebrows showed a bit of fatigue.
"Madam, you should rest for a while, and your daughter will settle down in the Pearl Pavilion first, and come over to talk to you in the afternoon." Duke Zhen Guo personally pulled the pillow behind Jun's and asked her to lie down.
Junshi grabbed his hand, shook his head gently, and said, "The Pearl Pavilion is too far away, and it is inconvenient for my daughter to come here. Why don't you just let Fang'er be in the green gauze closet next to me, trying to find her and talk to her? convenient!"
Pearl Pavilion, which sounds like the name of the attic, is actually a beautiful courtyard next to the main courtyard. Every flower, every ornament, and every kind of furniture in it is hand-picked by Jun's. It is extremely delicate, luxurious and simple. Every object in the courtyard was poured into her deep thoughts and love for her daughter.
Mingzhu Pavilion, as the name suggests, means "Pearl in the palm of your hand". In the Pearl Pavilion, only her Bao'er is qualified to live in it. Let Ding Fanger live in the Bisha closet, on the surface, she loves her daughter and is reluctant to let her out of her sight. The profound meaning in it, only the Jun family knows the "fish eyes" that her husband's son found, how could she be able to occupy the magpie's nest and occupy the yard belonging to her daughter? If her daughter is found someday, where can she get another Mingzhu Pavilion for Baoer
