Chapter 81 (2/2)

Changxing Hou casually made an excuse and left the house just after the new year. At that time, Zhao was still complaining about him. What should he do to go out in the first month? Changxing Hou ignored and went all the way south to find Chu Jinyao in a small village in the south of Shanxi.

At that time, Chu Jinyao was also called Su Yao.

Su Yao got up early that day and went outside to collect firewood for her family as usual. When she came back with the firewood basket on her back, she seemed to look back and saw a man standing nearby, dignified and noble, staring at her silently.

”Uncle, who are you looking for?”

Changxing Hou was silent. He stared for a long time and sighed.

The little girl in front of her is 13 years old. Because she has been doing farm work all year round, she is fiercer than the girls in Changxing Hou's house, but she is very thin and her skin is slightly tanned. Her face was sharp and thin, and she didn't look healthy. However, her eyes were surprisingly good-looking. It made people feel that she shouldn't appear in such a village, but should grow up on a national beauty, be raised in a deep palace, be loved by thousands and served by hundreds of people.

As like as two peas, Chu's Pearl's eyes and nose are almost the same as his sister Chu Chu. On the contrary, Chu Jinmiao, the fourth girl, has become less and less like him over the years.

Changxing Hou approached slowly and asked, ”what's your name?”

Su Yao felt very strange, but she smiled and replied, ”my name is Su Yao. You're not from here, are you lost?”

Changxing Hou didn't answer Su Yao's question, but asked, ”Yao? It's not like a name that people in the village can name.”

”Because my mother said that when I was born, a Taoist gave me a jade. He named me Yao, and so did our family.”

Hou Changxing looked at Su Yao's jade. It was a clean and transparent jade with red catkins floating inside. It was valuable, and the red catkins inside were also very exquisite. It was like the moment when blood dripped into clean water and was imprisoned by white jade. Changxing Hou suddenly thought of rumors similar to blood recognition.

When Su Yao, or Chu Jinyao, was born, a wandering Taoist came to Taiyuan. It is said that he was a treasure and brought a valuable gem that can bring back the dead to life. He came to the world to find his master. Changxing Hou didn't believe this rumor, but he thought that his child was about to be born. It was always rare for both men and women to have their own blood, so he wanted to find a good jade for his child and play a life-saving jade lock for his child. He personally found it in front of the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest looked at it and said, ”jade is destined for your daughter, but it can't be given to you.”

After hearing this, Changxing Hou sniffed and left. He is a marquis. It is a great honor to condescend and condescend to find a Taoist, but the Taoist doesn't appreciate it and is full of nonsense. What is Jade's fate with his daughter, but he can't give him this father? Let's not say whether Zhao's pregnant daughter is his daughter. If the Taoist doesn't give it to him, how can he get into his daughter's hands? I don't want to take the opportunity to raise the price.

After that, Tatar invaded the border, and Changxing Hou led the troops to resist the enemy. He soon completely forgot this matter.

Until thirteen years later, the Marquis of Changxing stood in front of Chu Jinyao and thought of this past.

”Uncle, it's time to refresh yourself!” Chu Jinyao said with a smile. ”You can go out of the village by going north along this road. I have to go back to chop firewood and boil water. I can't send you out. Otherwise, when my mother gets up, she will scold me again.”

Changxing Hou frowned: ”you're a little girl. Do you want to chop firewood and boil water?”

Don't mention the girl in the Marquis house. Even the servant girl who serves the girl won't do these rough jobs. His legitimate daughters, the eldest and the fourth, have been served by a nurse, two first-class servant girls and four second-class servant girls since their birth. They are also accompanied by many attendants sent by their elders. It can be said that they can't leave people for a moment. Chu Jinmiao, the fourth girl, was pricked by a needle when she was learning needlework. She would be tossed by everyone. She applied medicine and asked the doctor. Chu Jinyao has to get up early in such a cold winter, pick up firewood on the road, chop firewood, boil water and clean the yard when she comes back. Chu Jinyao is his own daughter! The Marquis of Changxing knows what life the eldest girl and the fourth girl live. That's why it's very uncomfortable to hear Chu Jinyao say so. What's more irritating is that the peasant family deliberately changed their daughter during production and let their daughter Chu Jinmiao, who should have been a peasant woman, enter the Marquis house to enjoy glory and wealth. The real Marquis has thousands of gold. It's just that they don't have a good environment in their house, They even ordered me to work!

Changxing Hou was furious. At this time, he had made up his mind to take the little girl in front of him back to the house, keep her name and follow the generation of girls in the family to be called Jinyao. As for the surname Su, leave it to the farmers' own daughter.

Chu Jinyao didn't know what Changxing Hou was thinking at this time. She was still seriously answering Changxing Hou's question: ”yes, my sister got married. I'm the only girl in the family. Naturally, I should do all the housework. Ah, my mother got up, I have to go back...”

”Don't go back,” said Changxing Hou. ”You're not su. Come with me.”

What happened later was very vague for Chu Jinyao. Su Fu, who had always been shouting, beating and scolding at home, shrank aside and dared not speak. Su Fu was angry and came to scold Chu Jinyao. Su's mother screamed at the top of her voice. Her brother Su Sheng also seemed to have become a quail. When she heard the news, her eldest sister Su Hui, who rushed home, suddenly fell silent and quietly looked at Chu Jinyao.

Chu Jinyao was afraid of such eyes. Later, she was taken away. She sat in the only gorgeous carriage in her life and leaned out crying to see her home. None of the parents who had lived together for 13 years came out to see her off. Only the eldest sister ran all the way crying and just stuffed her with a cloth bag from the window.

In the cloth bag are two washed cotton jackets and skirts, which are rare decent clothes at home. Chu Jinyao knows that if her sister gives these to her, she will be scolded by Su's father and mother when she goes back. If Su's father is angry, it's not impossible to do it. And my sister's husband's family, I don't know what to say.

Chu Jinyao had a good cry. Until she got off the bus, her eyes were red.

The carriage stopped on a flat ground. Chu Jinyao looked up and saw the majestic Changxing marquis.

Only then did Zhao know what the Marquis of Changxing had done.

Chu Jinyao stood in front of Zhao, yearning and shy. For a time, she didn't even know how to put her hands and feet.

However, her real mother swept her up and down several times and waved in disgust: ”take her out. It smells like dirt. It's really choking.”

Chu Jinyao was immediately embarrassed. There were no conditions in the village. In addition, she was in a hurry. She really didn't take a good bath. When Chu Jinyao had cleaned up and changed into clean clothes, she happily went to see her legendary biological mother, but outside the partition covered with smoke gauze, she heard: ”madam, you don't seem to like... Miss Yao.”

”What kind of lady is she? I don't know who she is when she comes out of thin air. The Marquis is really. Listening to the wind is rain. I don't know what cat and dog she has picked up. It may be that someone deliberately set up a game to deceive him.”

”Madam...” mother Zhang sighed. Mammy Zhang knew something about that year. When she saw Chu Jinyao, she thought, I'm afraid this is it. But she, an outsider, can see clearly. However, Zhao has actually hurt Chu Jinmiao as a daughter for 13 years. Now a daughter suddenly appears. For a while and a half, no one can accept it.
