Before coming here today, Pan'er thought of any possibility.
For example, Yao Jinzhi will pressure her to let the prince help Su Hai find a job. This is the biggest possibility she thinks. After all, if there is nothing to be courteous, it is either rape or robbery. She has even thought about her possible reaction. She must He will ridicule the Su family a few words, and then refuse to vent the depression that has been hidden in his heart for a long time.
But it never occurred to Yao Jinzhi to tell her about this matter.
This is something that has never happened in the previous life. She did not come to Yangzhou in the previous life, nor did she see the Su family, so naturally this scene will not happen today. The guesses about her own life experience in her previous life came from the fact that there were always suspicious people around her, and it was because some people thought they were smart.
Later, she denied it, and she refused to have any relationship with those people, so she sank the real truth of the matter to the bottom of the sea. She knew the result, but didn't know the process.
Does that mean that she can learn part of the process from Yao Jinzhi today
Pan'er took the thing over and opened it to see that it was a very small piece of jade.
Jade is not a good jade. Of course, this is relative to her vision. In fact, it is considered a good thing for ordinary civilians. It's just that the thing is too small, only the size of an adult's thumb. There is no carving on it, only the word 'Yuan' is engraved on it, and it is tied with a red string that has turned white, as if it is specially worn by children.
"... I picked you up on the rotten rocky beach near the pier, and I don't know why I was so obsessed with picking you up. You are well dressed and good-looking. Miss from a rich family, I was a little scared after I picked you up, for fear of being misunderstood as a flirt...
"Your father was working as a coolie on the pier at that time, and I asked him to keep an eye on the movement on the pier, but no one came to you. I guess you were abducted and sold to someone else by a scammer. The origin of this is unknown. Most people don't dare to look for their teeth because they are afraid of accidents... Then I brought you back and lied that I had given birth before, because I couldn't take care of you and put it in my mother's house in Suzhou. It happened that I went back for a while in a year In half a year in your natal family, no one doubted your identity."
"Then how old was I when you picked me up?"
"Three or four years old." Yao Jinzhi licked his hair and thought for a while: "You should only be a little over three years old. I think you can talk, eat and walk pretty well. When you first came, you knew you needed to find a mother and a nanny. Later, when you grow older, you will forget about the past, I once asked you tentatively, and you have no memory of this incident when you were a child."
Pan'er stroked the jade in her hand, and the image of the woman with only the surname in her mind suddenly became plump.
She imagined that she caressed this piece of jade for a long time, and hung it on the neck of her newborn daughter. This jade is not a good thing for that family, it should be the woman's own.
What was she thinking when she put this piece of jade on her daughter
It must be full of blessings in my heart, and I hope that my daughter will be healthy and live a long life.
Pan'er suddenly felt a needle-like pain in her heart, which made her unable to breathe gradually.
Yao Jinzhi continued talking, as if he wanted to tell her everything he knew.
"... I originally wanted to keep your clothes, but one year the family suffered a famine for too long, so I pawned them in a pawnshop, and left you this piece of jade. I think I will be able to use it one day... When you first came here, although you didn't know anything about it, you looked like a spoiled young lady with delicate skin and a tricky mouth. You didn't eat the food cooked at home, and you hated it and couldn't swallow it. Later, you became very hungry. still eat...
"...Your father doesn't want you, so he asked me to throw you away. I really don't want to...Where to throw it away, what a beautiful little girl, maybe it will still fall into Ren Yazi's hands... When I gave birth to your second brother, everyone It is said that I am pregnant with a daughter, and I want a daughter too, but I am still a brat... I thought it was just more mouths, girls can't eat much... "
"Maybe when I grow up in the future, I can exchange more money, right?"
Yao Jinzhi kept muttering to himself, Pan'er's words seemed to hit her sore spot, she subconsciously wanted to jump up, but she sat down for some reason.
She sat obliquely, kept this posture, wiped her face and said, "Just take it as what I think, so you have paid off what you owe me, and don't come back in the future, use that sentence It is said that the bridge returns to the bridge and the road returns."
Pan'er took a deep breath, and was about to say something, when there was a knock at the door.
She looked over and found the prince standing at the door, not only him, but also Su Datian, Su Jiang and Su Hai.
The prince looked at her deeply, Su Datian seemed embarrassed, and said: "Look, what are you talking about, this is really..."
"Let's go! I'll return this to you, as well as the things you bought. I keep what I said before. I've paid off what you owed me, so just treat it as if I didn't support you."
Yao Jinzhi stood up, stuffed the two small red envelopes into Pan'er, drove everyone out, and went straight to the main room, where she brought all the New Year's gifts that Pan'er had brought on the case table, and handed them to the prince.
"Let's go, hurry up!"
The prince glanced at Pan'er, took her with the other hand, and left.
When people walked out of the courtyard gate, the main room was still silent.
Su Haidao: "Mom, what are you doing?!"
These words ignited a firecracker.
"What are you doing? Do what I should do. What do you want your old lady to do? Don't say that she is not my own, even if she is my own. You should pay less attention to her when your married daughter splashes water. Don't forget that most of the money you sell her will be lost by your prodigal bastard!"
Su Hai was also annoyed, annoyed and ashamed at the same time: "Mom, why are you still mentioning this, I was also..." Trapped by someone.
"I'm not going to mention that you don't have a long memory! How much food can you eat with such a big bowl! My mother said that you have been useless all your life, but you are still not convinced. You can count the things you have done since you were young that can be praised by others And you, Su Datian, if you weren’t useless and couldn’t support this family, I would have sold her... I’m guilty of conscience, I, Yao Jinzhi, have been poor all my life, and I have never violated my conscience But not only did I lose my conscience, I also sold my daughter... "
The first half of this passage made people gnash their teeth in anger, not only the tone was choking, but also severely damaged the faces of the two men from the Su family, but the second half of the passage made people feel awkward for no reason because of Yao Jinzhi's low and choked voice.
Yao Jinzhi went back to the back room and closed the door tightly from the inside.
Su Datian winked at Su Hai, then shook his head at him. Su Hai sighed dejectedly, slammed the door and left.
It's the New Year's Eve, but it turned out like this, Su Jiang and Miao Cuixiang looked at each other, but they didn't know what to say.
On the carriage, Pan'er was buried in the prince's arms.
She has been like this since she got in the car, neither talking nor getting up.
The prince patted her on the back very lightly, and his movements revealed a kind of clumsiness.
Feeling the moisture from his chest seeping through the cotton robe, his soothing movements were quick and slightly hasty, and he touched her face with the other hand.
"Don't cry. Since there is something left, I will definitely find it, and I will find it alone."
Pan'er rubbed her face in his arms, and said softly: "I'm not looking for my biological parents, I just, just... I feel a little uncomfortable. I can't explain why I cry... She is usually a very fierce person, the neighbor The neighbors say she is a shrew. When I was young, I played with the children in the alley. I never suffered a disadvantage. Someone beat me. My eldest brother is older than us. If he doesn’t play with us, my second brother will help me if he knows. I called back, but the second brother couldn't, so she led me to the house of the Shang family to look for it, and she insisted on letting me call back...
"... I remember one time, a little fat man who was older than me and my second brother pushed me away. My second brother went to fight with him and was beaten instead of winning. She found out when I went back. The little fat man's father was a The butcher was also tall and strong, and no one around dared to provoke him, so she went there with a fire stick, stood outside his door and scolded him for a whole day, forcing him to come out and apologize... "
"...so at that time she put me in foster care with that family. I really thought it was foster care... Dad's waist was injured, and there was no rice in the house. Maybe he just let me go back after eating there for a few days... I just waited Ah, wait... Dad couldn't work during that time, I was afraid that my brother and the others would have no food, so I secretly sent the food home... She drove me back and told me to stay there...
"I really didn't expect that she would sell me. Maybe it's because I couldn't believe it... I made preparations before I came here, and it was just a farewell. If they don't mention anything, it's okay, if they do, I will definitely hurt you severely." They had a meal, but they didn't expect her to tell me that I was not her own... "
The prince has been listening quietly, listening to what she said that has been held in his heart for a long time. It wasn't until the carriage stopped for a long time, and she was silent for a long time, that he patted her on the shoulder: "Okay, don't cry, you will be seen by the servants if you cry again, you, the master, should lose face." gone."
Only then did Pan'er sit up straight, her eyes were red and swollen, and her face was also red, because she was bored.
"How can you be so comforting?"
"Wipe your tears and go in first. Later, someone will cook two eggs for you and roll them under your eyes."
Pan'er became curious, "How do you know this?"
Could it be that the prince also secretly cried
The prince saw what she was thinking from her expression, and glanced at her: "What are you thinking!"
He only knew it when he saw his mother often doing this. The slaves in the palace are not allowed to cry, but how many of the masters actually know how to cry? People before and behind are not allowed, because this is showing weakness. Once the master shows weakness, the slaves below will be impetuous.
Pan'er didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing her like this, the prince was quite helpless.
You can say that she is bold, sometimes she is astonishingly bold, but sometimes she is extremely timid, the prince always has a feeling that she is actually afraid of him. Normally, she was afraid that he would be fine, so as not to be spoiled by him, so the prince would just sit back and watch. But at this time, the little girl had just experienced a life-changing experience, crying like that, the prince inevitably softened her heart.
Just tell her some things about Empress Fu, and treat it as an exchange.
In fact, it is no secret that Empress Fu is not favored in the palace. There must be times when her back is sad, but in the past, Pan'er was just guessing. This time, through the prince's few words, a person with a handsome front end will feel sad because of her husband's indifference The image of the queen is three-dimensional and full.
Is the prince's tolerance and tolerance to the princess because of Empress Fu? Pan'er had a clear understanding of something.
After they went back, when the two of them were taking a nap, Pan Er showed the jade jade to the prince.
There is nothing special about Jade Jue, and the quality of the jade is very ordinary, except for the word 'Yuan' engraved on it.
"So, your name should be Yuan'er?"
Pan'er frowned and thought for a while, then said, "It should be considered."
"Yuan, Chanyuan, Chanyuanxi, the maiden, means beauty."
Of course, Pan'er knew the meaning of Yuan, but she didn't expect the prince to say something casually... Anyway, she couldn't understand it, but she knew it was a very good sentence.
"In the future, Gu will call you Yuanyuan, just treat it as a small character."
Pan'er thought it was strange, but seeing the prince's "I think it's very good", he could only touch his nose and say nothing.
Thinking about it, she said again: "Your Highness has already given me small characters, so what do I usually call Your Highness? I always think that you, Your Highness, or something, one is inappropriate, and the other is too blunt."
The prince glanced at her: "Didn't you call?"
"When did it happen?" Pan'er was a little confused.
In a flash, she seemed to have called him—Brother Cong
Does he think this title is good? I also sigh that the aesthetics of the prince's name is really hard to describe. But since he doesn't dislike it, she is Yuanyuan and he is Brother Cong, it's fair!
