Marry the first wife

Yangzhou is far more prosperous than Shangjing, with waterways connecting everywhere and countless rare and rare treasures.

When she first entered Yangzhou City, Fu Yao was full of curiosity everywhere she looked. A boudoir's daughter from Shangjing stood in Yangzhou City but seemed to come from an unknown place.

A thin veil hung behind her ears, and her smart eyes looked around, scanning the scenery she had never seen before.

"Third brother, look, that man can breathe fire!"

Fu Yao grabbed Fu Weiyuan's arm and pointed at a fire-breathing man beside the street.

Fu Weiyuan was no longer surprised by this, and laughed in a low voice: "There are many folk craftsmen who hold the best sorghum wine in their mouths, add sparks to it, and it will ignite, and fire will come out of the mouth."

Fu Yao pursed her lips and nodded involuntarily, but her eyes never left the fire-breathing man for a moment. Her steps did not stop, and her eyes stayed in place.

Shen Zhaoxian, who was a step behind, saw this scene, with a look of surprise in his eyes, and thought to himself: As a direct daughter of General Jingyuan's mansion, it's possible that the eldest girl has never seen this most common thing on the streets.

These people appear on the streets every day, and they are most common when going to Beijing.

Unfortunately, no one came to answer Shen Zhaoxian's doubts. There was only the scene of the brother and sister walking side by side in front of him.

Fu Yao took a step and stopped, holding a bunch of candied haws in her hand with a thin layer of frost hanging on it. When she took a bite, the sweet sugar coating on the outside melted away, and her eyes instantly narrowed.

Not because it's sweet, but because it's sour, too sour.

Looking at the candied haws in her hand, Fu Yao looked at Fu Weiyuan, her little face wrinkled together, her little mouth hidden under the veil stuck out her tongue, and asked: "Third brother, shouldn't the candied haws be sweet? Why is this Candied haws on a stick is actually sour?" She had never eaten anything so sour in her life.

Blinking his eyes, a faint layer of tears appeared.

Fu Weiyuan smiled and shook his head, "That may be because Yaoyao was unlucky today and bought sour candied haws."

Hawthorn is an autumn fruit and is usually picked in September and October. Now is the winter solstice. Even if hawthorn is preserved using special methods, it will inevitably lose its original taste.

What's more, when did the hawthorn in Fu Yao's hand come from?
Fu Yao shook her head and looked at the hawthorn she was holding. She wanted to cry but had no tears. She wanted to eat but couldn't, and couldn't throw it away. It was really embarrassing!

After this experience, she didn't want to walk outside anymore. She just wanted to return to the inn quickly and drink more tea to dilute the sour taste.

······
Fu Yao held the tea cup in both hands and drank a sip of tea, and then her whole body came to life.

While Gu Yu was making the bed, he looked at the indescribable expression on his girl's face and smiled softly.

"Good Guyu, you know how to laugh at me in one day." Fu Yao stood beside Guyu with her hands on her hips and a gloomy expression, her eyebrows slightly lowered, pretending to be angry.

"Girl, your expression just now was so cute." Gu Yu continued, "It's so cute!"

"Humph!"

Guyu walked to his girl, looked at the streets of Yangzhou, and said softly: "Girl, how long will we stay in Yangzhou City?"

"It won't take long." Fu Yao said. They were on their way in a hurry to return to their hometown to worship their ancestors. The journey was not meant to be a romantic one. They would take a short rest in Yangzhou City tonight and set off early tomorrow morning. "That's it!"

Fu Yao glanced sideways at Gu Yu, who looked obviously bad, and frowned, "What's wrong?" There was uncontrollable concern in her tone.

"It's just that I haven't been back for a long time and I miss you a little bit."

Fu Yao raised her eyebrows, grasped the key point of Gu Yu's words, and repeated: "Come back?" Could it be that Gu Yu was from Yangzhou City before and this was her hometown.

Guyu nodded matter-of-factly, "When I was young, I grew up in a small village on the edge of Yangzhou City. Although I can't remember the appearance of my parents, I still have some impressions of Yangzhou City."

Hearing Guyu say this, Fu Yao asked doubtfully: "Aren't you born at home?"

She still knew a little bit about the maids and maids serving around her. Like Mrs. Xie, the maids and maids her father and they used were either personal maids brought from the Xie family, or they were born at home.

Even the servants around Fu Yu and Fu Fang were also born in the family. The maid brought by the housekeeper as a candidate was also born in the family. How could Gu Yu grow up in Yangzhou City?
In order to ensure the centrality of the maid to the master, the master usually chooses the maid who is born in the family, and the body bond is conveniently held in his hands. This is something that all the ladies in Beijing understand tacitly.

Is this how General Jingyuan’s Mansion behaves as well?
"I am indeed a maid born in my family, but my parents are not my real parents." When Gu Yu said this, his voice paused and his eyes looked into the distance, as if he was missing something.

"My father and mother are real farmers. There are many sisters in the family. My father and mother have always wanted a boy to inherit the family business."

"But there were too many people in the family, and the food was really limited. The servant was not too old at the time, so he couldn't contribute or work."

"Later, slave girl's uncle came to slave girl's house and wanted a girl. slave girl was also the lucky one. Uncle alone fell in love with slave girl."

Gu Yu's voice was indescribably sad, Fu Yao lowered her head slightly, and she understood the key as soon as she thought about it.

The masters of General Jingyuan's Mansion want to choose their personal maids. How could the children of the family not be interested in this? You know, even a powerless girl like her has a lot of benefits.

If possible, Uncle Gu Yu would definitely want his daughter to become her personal maid, but I don't know what happened at that time, so this plan obviously didn't work.

At this time, Guyu's role came to light. A young girl couldn't remember anything in the film. After a little fooling around, she turned out to be an illegitimate daughter from outside.

"Gu Yu, don't worry, what I once said will definitely come true for you." Fu Yao held Gu Yu's wrist with one hand, her eyes were firm, and she vowed: "I will definitely return your body contract to you."

If possible, who would want to be a slave at the mercy of others? However, Guyu's body deed is not in her hands, but with Madam Xie.

As soon as these words came out, tears suddenly appeared in Gu Yu's eyes, and he choked with sobs: "Girl, don't you want me to be a slave? Is there something I did wrong?"

Fu Yao sighed and explained patiently: "Gu Yu, we are master and servant. This is our fate, but there is no banquet in the world.

I can deeply understand that you are good to me. In this case, why can't I plan a good future for you? I want you to walk out of General Jingyuan's mansion with dignity, get married and have children, and live out your life in peace. "

This is what she has always wanted to do!
