The Pearl of the Lady

Chapter 40

She waved her hand, "Don't quarrel with her, just let her go."

The maid was still complaining dissatisfiedly, "I don't know what happened these two days. Madam sees her every day, and invited everyone to teach her, and even gave her the empress's copybook."

"Big sister's copybook..."

Wang Tian suddenly thought of the queen's paleness that couldn't be concealed under heavy makeup, her mother's red eyes with tears, her father's seriousness these days, and the fifth younger sister's sudden attention. Her heart beat violently, and she clenched her hands involuntarily. Tighten the veil.

The maid was still complaining, "Didn't you see that Miss Fifth, that maid, Qiu Qiang, has raised her head to the sky these two days, saying that Miss Fifth will have a bright future in the future."

"Great future..." Wang Tian muttered the word silently.

"Hey..." Wang Tian threw away the embroidery in her hand, and she got stuck again.

Ever since she listened to the servant girl's words, she has been restless all day long, and that dangerous and slightly seductive prediction emerged in her mind from time to time. From time to time, she still thought of the most powerful man in the world, his gentle voice, and majestic posture. .

"Miss..." The servant girl rushed in, with a look of fear on her face.

"what happened?"

"Qiu Qiang, Qiu Qiang, dead"

"what?"

The little girl's voice was terrified, "Originally, Qiu Qiang was proud of herself these two days, and she even invited a little girl who was familiar with her to have tea and laugh. After passing by, she was not found, and then the mansion... found her from the pond."

"It's true, I'm right." These words ran rampant in Wang Tian's mind. She couldn't stand still for a while, so she helped the chair.

The little maid hurriedly helped her up, "It's all my fault, what to say about such a thing, it scares the young lady."

Wang Tian covered the little girl's hands with cold sweat and she whispered, "Bring me a cup of hot tea, I'll sit down and have a rest."

"Yes." The little maid was afraid that the young lady would be frightened by her own words, so she hurriedly poured tea.

Wang Tian stopped in front of his mother's room, straightened his clothes, and then stepped in.

Mrs. Wang was wearing a forehead wipe, half leaning on the bed, her eyes squinted, she looked not in good spirits, she saw her little daughter coming, she cheered herself up, and called Wang Tian to sit beside her.

"My son, why is it so dark right now, but you're not resting well?"

"My daughter is fine. It's probably because it's been hot for the past two days and I didn't sleep well at night."

"Ask the servant girl to fan you next to you, don't be greedy for coolness, and don't put too many icebergs in the bedroom."

Wang Tian held his mother's hand, "My daughter knows, but it's my mother, why is she in such a bad mood."

"Alas..." Mrs. Wang sighed while holding her little daughter's hand, but didn't say anything.

Wang Tian cautiously asked a few more questions, Mrs. Wang shook her head and said, "This is not something your child should know."

Wang Tian stopped asking, and pouted, "Fifth Sister took all the Chuyun gauze, what should I use?"

Mrs. Wang frowned, "She has short vision, so ignore her, it's better for your mother to share with you, and I'll go to the warehouse to get it later."

Wang Tian was even more sure.

She was thinking about something in her heart, although she concealed it well, it was inevitable that there would be a look of anticipation on her face.

"Look at you, mother knows what you're thinking about?"

Wang Tian's heart tightened.

"For your marriage, your elder sister has already selected several people, and the list has been sent to me. Mother is most optimistic about the youngest son of Marquis Jin An. He has a good family background and is motivated. Although he is not a housekeeper's wife, the youngest son-in-law is also easy. some."

"Mother..." Wang Tian covered his face and went out.

"This child is so shy."

Does only Wang Tian know that after her mother finished speaking, she felt as if she had been splashed with chili oil first, and felt a sharp pain in her heart, and then was poured with ice water. See her painful eyes, tears of unwillingness.

Spring is already coming to an end, but the hearts of the girls are swaying, not only His Majesty is being targeted, but also Ah Fu's father, the former No. [-] beautiful boy in the Great Zhou, and now the No. [-] handsome man in the Great Zhou, Gu Zhao.

In the past, there was a song in the capital, "I only ask Gu Langwang, but death is not a pity." Later, Gu Lang Shangzhu married the famous tigress Princess Hua'an as his wife. As soon as the imperial decree came out, the whole capital cried and broke many hearts. Now the husband and wife love each other Harmony, there are still many women who hold the idea that Gu Lang was coerced by the imperial power, but these women dare not touch the fate of the eldest princess, they just think about it.

But recently, someone wanted to take a bite out of this sweet pastry.

Not to mention Princess Hua'an's reaction, Princess Anle was the first to disagree.

The setting sun painted Jinming Lake orange, and the evening breeze was gentle, causing ripples on the water surface. Two little ones were sitting side by side under the eaves of Ruyizhou, one of them was shaking his legs every time. .

"Ah Fu..."

"..." There was no answer.

Little Huomiao lightly touched Ah Fu who was next to her, with worried eyes. Ah Fu was a little distracted in class today. Although the teacher and others didn't notice, Little Huomiao still noticed that Ah Fu was absent-minded.

There was a pile of small stones picked up by Ah Fu's hand. She picked up one and threw it far away.

Ah Fu likes his own home. There is a mother who is proud and protective, a father who is a good man who takes good care of the family, a big brother who loves him steadily, a second brother who loves to laugh, a cute third brother with [height of resentment], and a grown-up man who is cared for by everyone. Big and little Ah Fu, there is no room for extra people in this family, and there is no room for extra people.

Ah Fu thought it was true... She felt wronged and angry, her eye circles were almost red, and some images flashed in her mind, a cold room, a mother and daughter showing off their might, wearing strange dresses, the images just flashed by, Ah Fu felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

She rubbed her eyes, and made up her mind not to let others come into her house. She turned to look at her little cousin beside her, and wanted to ask him if he had any opinions, "Little Huo Miao..."

She only called out a name, but then paused without asking. She thought of the huge harem of the emperor's uncle, the gentle and helpless virtuousness of his aunt, and next year is the draft year...
