The ghost-catching princess, she always pretends to be weak

Chapter 77 The hairpin is different
  "Lu Xu, he doesn't like me."

Wen Jiu was originally aggrieved by three points, but after seeing Lu Xu, it became twelve points after thinking about it.

"He has someone he likes."

Wen Jiu's heart was crushed into a ball at this time, and even breathing felt uncomfortable. All the sorrows he had felt since childhood came out at once, and the tears fell down.

"He likes that person very much, but he doesn't like me..."

She raised her sleeves to wipe her tears, but the more she talked, the sadder she felt...

The more tears I shed, the more I shed them, and I couldn't control them at all.

Lu Xu looked at the bright-colored girl in front of him. She was wearing a goose-yellow fairy skirt today. She was slender and looked a little thin standing on the roadside. She was crying as if she had been greatly wronged, and she shed tears. While wiping tears...

At this time, he had mixed emotions, feeling slightly sour, but also a little faintly happy.

He knew who she was talking about.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

Once the red thread of fate is broken, it will be difficult to meet again.

After the Lantern Festival, Yunqi Academy regained its former bustle.

Wen Jiu came early that day. Maybe he couldn't sleep well in the past few days and was always woken up.

She came to the school early and saw an acquaintance.

Chen Miao got the opportunity to come to the academy because Chen Shu solved the unsolved case.

At this time, she was sitting in Li Shiyi's seat, looking around, looking at the paper, pens and books on the table, very curious.

As soon as Wen Jiu arrived at the door, he saw someone sitting in that seat, and for a moment he thought it was the cute and bright girl who had returned.

She couldn't help but smile.

It would be great if you were still alive.

Chen Miao seemed to sense that someone was coming. She turned around and saw Wen Jiu standing at the door.

I saw her looking at him very tenderly with a full smile.

But it doesn't seem like he's looking at himself.

"Miss Wen," Chen Miao tilted her head and shouted.

Only then did Wen Jiu see who it was.

"Miss Chen also came to the academy?"

Wen Jiu walked in, and Zisu quickly arranged her desk.

Although the academy has been tidied up by servants before, my lady's habit of placing books is different from others.

"Yes." Chen Miao's eyes flashed a little: "The emperor praised my brother for his ability and gave me the opportunity to study in the academy."

I smiled and nodded: "That's very good."

But thinking about Chen Shu, I still feel depressed.

Good and bad.

"Have you ever read these books?"

Wen Jiu was a little worried. After all, Zhang Jin and Liu Yue were still here. If Chen Miao made a mistake or was wrong at all, these two people would inevitably make things difficult for her, especially Liu Yue.

"Don't worry, Miss Wen. My brother told me briefly at home that although I don't come from a scholarly family like you, I still know a few words and understand some truths. The stupid bird will fly first."

"You're not stupid. I haven't read these books yet." Wen Jiu flipped through the books on the table. He hadn't read them yet and was too lazy to read them.

She is not interested in seeing women who are taught to stick to the rules every day.

Today, Chen Miao had specially dressed up. She had been in Beijing for a while, and she was dressing more and more like a woman in Beijing.

But she suddenly discovered that Chen Miao was wearing a silver hairpin today, which she had never seen before.

This silver hairpin is neither exquisite nor precious, but it always attracts Wen Jiu's attention.

She couldn't help but said: "This hairpin."

"This hairpin was my mother's dowry. She has always worn it with her. Even if the family was too poor to take the blame, my mother never sold it."

When Chen Miao saw Wen Jiu mentioning the hairpin on his head, he touched it.

"Oh yes, that is indeed precious."

"Although it's not worth much, I like it very much." Chen Miao smiled sheepishly.

Zi Su also glanced at it slightly. Every hairpin on her girl's dressing table was worth more than this one. Although she didn't know why the girl asked so much, she was definitely not doing it for this old hairpin.

"Can you lend it to me? The pattern on it is very beautiful. There seems to be no such style in Beijing."

There was deliberate curiosity in her eyes. After all, no one could believe that she would be interested in this hairpin.

"Okay, why not?" Chen Miao readily took off the hairpin from her head and handed it to Wen Jiu's hand.

The moment Wen Jiu's fingertips touched the silver hairpin, the ghost trapped in the silver hairpin instantly transmitted her memories of her death to her mind.

Someone lifted the hairpin and plunged it into his neck without mercy.
  The man slowly turned his head and turned out to be Chen Shu's mother. She had a determined look on her face. She was completely different from the woman he saw who had a peaceful face and a calm face. She had worked hard and never complained all her life.
  Wen Jiu's hand trembled suddenly, and the silver hairpin fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

There was panic in her eyes, and she quickly bent down to pick it up, apologizing all the time: "I'm sorry, I didn't catch it."

It’s not that I didn’t hold it, it’s that I couldn’t hold it.

Chen Shu's mother killed his father?
  What's happening here?
  Wen Jiu suppressed the emotion in his eyes and said seemingly unintentionally: "It's been a while since you guys have been in Jingzhong. I don't seem to have seen my uncle, but I have met my aunt once, right in front of your house."

"My brother and I have been raised by my mother since we were young. It makes no difference whether that person is there or not."

Chen Miao can hardly even remember what her father looks like.

He has been drinking as long as he can remember. When he comes back, he beats and scolds his mother, sometimes even his brother and himself.

"So that's it. It's really not easy for Auntie, pulling Master Chen and you to grow up."

Chen Miao has long regarded Wen Jiu as one of his own, and no longer hides too much.

"Miss Wen, I'm not afraid to tell you that my father passed away early, and it was my mother who raised my brother and me up. At that time, my brother was still taking the scientific examination. Although many expenses have been reduced, the necessary expenses It’s still indispensable.”

Chen Miao seemed to be lost in memories, "That day, my brother suddenly came back and said that he would not study anymore because he would not take the science test. His mother was so angry that she whipped him hard with a whip. My brother's back was bruised, and he didn't say a word. But in the end My brother still couldn't defeat my mother and returned to the academy."

"My mother was still helping people wash in the dead of winter. My hands were so frozen that not a single piece of meat was left. My mother just washed them one by one and cooked bowls of noodles until my brother was in high school."

Chen Miao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Ms. Wen is laughing. We come from a poor family. These things should not insult the girl's ears."

"What does a person's ambition have to do with his origin?" Wen Jiu patted her shoulder comfortingly, "Did your uncle pass away very early?"

"I almost have no memory of my father. I was only five or six years old at that time, and my brother was only two years older than me."

Chen Miao continued: "I only remember that my father was an alcoholic. He often beat and scolded my mother and broke things in the house. My mother worked hard to make money, but he used it all for gambling and drinking. Sometimes even my brother would be beaten."
