Chapter 1
Chapter 1 Huazhongjin Guancheng
During the Ching Ming Dynasty, the spring rain in Jinguan City continued.
The falling petals in the Nanfu covered the bluestone path, damp and lightly cold.
Facing the rain at the west window, Nan Baoyi leaned on the bamboo couch, staring at her immature white hand in a daze.
Suddenly a shout came from outside the curtain:
“Jiaojiao, a visitor from the mansion, sitting in the grandmother’s yard, why are you still sleeping! Get up, let’s join in the fun!”
The round and jade little beauty trot in and squinted Nan Baoyi’s face with a smile, “Why have you lost weight these past few days? Did the maid not take care of it?”
Nan Baoyi pouted and flicked away her claws.
She looked at the Linghua mirror, where the girl was only twelve years old, like a doll made of pink jade.
She sighed in her heart, how good it was to be born again to the day before marriage, how could she be born again to twelve years old, too young.
…
Dragged all the way to the flower hall by her cousin, she hid behind the rosewood embroidered flower and bird screen, and quietly looked in the hall.
The grandmother was sitting in jeopardy and placed the white jade tea cup on the flower table. “The third child, your wife has just left for less than two years. You have to lead the outer room into the door. Have you ever thought about what Jiaojiao will do?!”
The middle-aged man sitting at the bottom was elegant and graceful, “Mother, the Liu family is not a person who treats children harshly. She will treat Jiaojiao as her own and raise them well. Look, isn’t Yan’er well raised? ?”
The girl behind him immediately walked into the hall and knelt down to the old lady respectfully, “Yan’er greets grandmother, and wish grandmother good health and everything goes well!”
At the age of thirteen, the girl was born with apricot eyes and cheeks, and her throat was sweet as honey.
Behind the screen, Nan Baoyi’s lips were pale.
It was also this time in the previous life. Under his father’s hard work, Liu led a son and a daughter into the mansion and became his continuation.
As a stepmother, Liu did spoil her very much, but gradually indulged her into lawlessness, so that she became a defiant boy.
Nan Yan is the daughter of the Liu family, but she was raised up as a beautiful lady. Not only did she set off her stupidity, she even took away her marriage.
Her marriage was Cheng De, the second son of the prefect of Shuzhong.
The southern family is a Shujin merchant, and the daughter of the merchant can marry the official son of the official family. This marriage can be regarded as high.
She married happily in her previous life, but she did not expect it to be the beginning of a nightmare.
It turns out that Cheng De and Nan Yan have long been in love with each other. After her wedding, the two performed a series of scenes of fateful mandarin ducks, making everyone feel that Nan Baoyi is a sinner who hinders the lover’s final marriage and is someone else. The vicious female partner in a love story.
She was struggling, and in order to please Cheng German, she took the initiative to marry his sweetheart and let Nan Yan enter the mansion as a flat wife.
But the consequence of complaining with virtue is that Nan Yan deliberately scalded her face with boiling water…
Nan Baoyi stretched out her small hand and stroked her clean and flawless face tremblingly.
“Jiaojiao, what’s the matter with you?” cousin Nan Baozhu asked with concern.
Nan Baoyi shook his head, firmness in his eyes.
Since there is a chance to live a lifetime again, the first thing she needs to do is not to let Liu Family and Nan Yan come in again!
She timidly stepped out of the screen, “Grandma, who is this sister?”
The old lady hugged her distressedly, “You rolled down from the rockery two days ago and knocked your mind. You didn’t want to raise it in your room. Why did you run out?”
Nan Baoyi blushed, “Grandma, my brain is not broken, it’s alright.”
She turned to Nan Yan again, and said coquettishly: “Grandma, this elder sister is really good-looking, like an actress on a stage.”
The expressions of the maids changed.
The actress has a low status, isn’t this a change of law to curse Nan Yan?
They quietly looked at Nan Baoyi and Nan Yan. Their fifth young lady was born with scented jade, and her brows were full of scholarly treasures, which was indeed much more solemn than this outside lady.
Nan Yan knelt on the ground and went to look at Nan Baoyi.
She combed her clean and lovely flat bun, wore a tender yellow silk brocade and golden hibiscus quilt, two green jade bracelets with excellent water heads on her wrists, and gold and silver bells with wishful drawing on her waist. The embroidered toe caps were also decorated with pearls. All low-key extravagance.
Looking down at herself, she was wearing a pink satin dress and two red gold bracelets on her wrists, but it was her most expensive outfit.
Obviously they are both father’s daughters, but because she is an outside girl, she can’t be on the table, she can only be the one who can’t see.
The unspeakable low self-esteem filled her heart, she bit her lips tightly, and there was a strong resentment and unwillingness in her heart.
Nan Baoyi had a panoramic view of her appearance.
She obediently walked up to her and smiled and helped her up.
She said: “It’s cold on the ground, and sister must not catch the wind. Daddy, is this sister the actress who you bought into the mansion, who sings for grandma?”
Nan Guang was embarrassed, “Jiaojiao, she, she is your Aunt Liu’s daughter and your sister…”
Nan Baoyi opened her eyes in surprise.
Tears accumulated little by little, and she took a few steps back delicately, and suddenly bit her handkerchief and started crying.
She turned around and threw herself into the arms of the old lady, “Grandma, Daddy doesn’t want me!”
The old lady dared her, patted her back to comfort her, and stared at Nanguang.
Nan Guang felt guilty, but still bit the bullet and said: “Jiaojiao, Yan’er is your sister. If you take her into the mansion, one more person will love you. Isn’t it good? Not to mention your sister’s arrival to discuss marriage. At his age, living in the mansion will make it easier to talk about a good relationship in the future. Jiaojiao, when you are older, you have to be sensible, and you have to help your sister!”
“Shut up, haven’t you seen Jiaojiao crying into tears?!” The old lady was stern, “running here early in the morning to make trouble, it’s a headache!”
“The son is wrong…” Nan Guang accompanied the smiling face, and then ordered the maid, “Breakfast first.”
Nanfu is rich and powerful, and breakfast is not only exquisite and exquisite, but also has great rules when eating.
The maids came in like running water and respectfully put the delicious food on the table.
Nan Baoyi took the seat with the old lady, glanced at Nan Yan quietly, and deliberately said: “Grandma, granddaughter is waiting for you to eat?”
Nan Guang hurriedly said: “It’s rare for your sister to enter the mansion, ask your sister to take care of her!”
This is a great opportunity to please the old lady!
Nan Baoyi didn’t say anything, chuckled and walked away.
Nan Yanji stepped forward with a wink, and took a delicately shaped marigold from the hand of the maid.
There was some soup in the calendula and it smelled very sweet.
Maybe it’s the hot soup for stomach warming!
Nan Yan smiled confidently, and in the stunned eyes of everyone, she put the calendula on the table, took the spoon and took the small bowl, and respectfully brought it to the old lady, “Grandma, please use the soup.”
“puff!”
Nan Baozhu, who sneaked out to eat, laughed out loud.
The maidservant in the hall smiled, and the sarcasm and contempt in her eyes were almost undisguised.
Nan Baoyi is considerate, “That’s the fragrant soup used to clean hands.”
Nan Yan stood in place dumbfounded.
She looked at Nan Baoyi, and the other party slowly rolled up half of the light pink gauze sleeves. The little hands protruding from the sleeves were white and soft, and the slender fingertips were still lightly pink.
She immersed her hands in the fragrant soup, and the maid dropped a few bright red rose petals, and the hot mist was filled, showing the delicate beauty of everyone.
But she held up the hand-washing water for someone to drink…
Her face was hot, and she rushed on her head with blood, wishing to find a hole in the ground!
A concubine, a high-ranking family, and an insightful vision.
She bit her lip with low self-esteem, and finally couldn’t help but sob.
Everyone was very embarrassed.
It was the daughter born outside the room. It was obvious that no one bullied her, but she ran to the ancestor’s yard to cry early in the morning. Isn’t this bad luck?
This is unruly, it can be seen that the outer room can’t be on the table, how can he be the third lady of Nanfu?
Nan Guang felt very distressed, “Mother, look, this is the disadvantage of raising the child outside. The Liu family gave birth to a son and a daughter, so she should be carried into the mansion for reasons and reasons. Not to mention Yan’er. When you reach the age of discussing relatives, you will have a good status in the house, which is more convenient for her to talk about relatives. You are a grandmother, you have to be magnanimous, you have to help Yan’er! In any case, the child will marry Liu’s entrance next month! ”
After speaking, she took Nan Yan straight away.
Everyone looked at each other.
The old lady smashed the tea cup with anger: “Asshole thing!”
Noting that Nan Baoyi was still there, she wrapped her arms around her with red eyes, “Pity my Jiaojiaoer, stepmother entered the door, what should I do…”
Nan Baoyi’s nose was sour.
Grandma really loves her. It’s ridiculous that she was instigated by the Liu family in her previous life, thinking that her grandmother disliked her, so she gradually refused to get close to her.
Later, when she was locked up in the Chaifang of Chengfu, she saw Nan Yan wearing a white flower and she knew that her grandmother had passed away.
At that time, Nan Yanzhi stood proudly in front of her and said sarcastically: “The old lady kept calling your name while she was still alive. I told her you didn’t want to go back, but she still stared at her, trying to find you among the crowd… …Nan Baoyi, you are so unfilial!”
Nan Baoyi was lying in the arms of the old lady, and suddenly tears fell.
Yes, she was really unfilial in her previous life!
