Chapter 2 The Legend of Duyuan Bridge

The servant girl pouted and glared at her, she smiled and spoke in a sweet voice.

"Yes, I heard it."

She glanced at the servant girl, and after staring at each other, she began to laugh. The servant girl lowered her head and said coquettishly: "Miss, don't take what I said just now to your heart."

"Don't worry, I won't take it to heart. What you said is for my own good."

She nodded: "Yeah."

dusk.

The scorching sun has dissipated, and it is almost dusk now, and the reddish sunset glow shines on the busy figures of the two.

The washed clothes have been collected, and I am a little tired after a busy day, so I stretched my waist to relieve my fatigue.

Today is a special day, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which is the Lantern Festival, and there will be lantern festivals on the streets at night.

At this time, the people in the mansion had already gone out to enjoy the lanterns, and she actually wanted to go after she had just finished her work. It was only one day in a year, and her desire to leave the mansion became stronger and stronger.

But if she left the mansion privately, no one would watch in the huge Shen mansion. If a thief broke into the mansion, the stepmother would definitely blame her.

She came to the window and looked at the dimly lit place outside the house from the height of the attic. Red lanterns were hung all over the streets on both sides of the road, and the streets were crowded with people.

Putting his face in his hands, he said: "The outside world is really beautiful, I really want to get out of Shen's mansion and make a living."

The servant girl came in with a plate of food, she could see that she was moaning and sighing at this moment, she also heard what she said and thought about Shen's house in her heart.

She put the food on the table and said solemnly: "Miss, you can go out and play, as long as I am in the house to watch over."

"But."

Shen Yaoxue hesitated, because she was afraid that something would happen to a little girl in the mansion, and the servant girl would push her out of the door.

"Don't worry about it, I'm in the mansion and I'm sure everything will be fine, so don't worry, Miss, go out and see the outside world once!"

The maid smiled and waved to her in the room, she went down the attic and walked out of Shen's residence.

From the moment she stepped out of Shen's residence, she felt very refreshed, because she had never been out since she was a child, and this time, if her stepmother and the others were not around, she would not be able to get out either.

A smile appeared on her face, a simple smile like a child.

When the bird in the cage was freed from the bondage, her mood at this moment was no different from that of the bird. Although it was only temporary freedom, she was content.

Pedestrians come and go on Nihong Street. There is a big bridge in Huacheng, which is the place where many people want to pass by.

"Duyuan Bridge."

She pointed to the side of the bridge with three large characters engraved on it and read it out.

"Girl, do you want to buy flowers?"

An old woman with a basket of manjusawa on her arm told her that there is a legend about Duyuan Bridge in Hwaseong, that is, if you pass by the bridge with a manjusawa in your hand, you will meet your destined true love. Ming Tianzi.

Why hadn't she heard of this legend? Maybe it was because she had never been out, so she believed it.

"How to sell?"

"Three pennies."

She took out her handkerchief. There was only two pennies in the handkerchief, and there was only one penny short. The old lady looked at her in shabby clothes and felt sorry for her.

"Girl, I think you and I have a good relationship, so I will give you this manjusawa plant for free."

"Auntie, what an embarrassment, I only have these two pennies, please accept it."

Her attitude was very sincere, and the old lady accepted the two pennies and the white handkerchief embroidered with a small pink flower.

She took the manjusawa to Duyuan Bridge, and when she had gone far away, the smile on the old woman's face gradually froze, and she threw away the basket of manjusawa, and the old woman disappeared after the basket fell to the ground.
