Chapter 278 The so-called bravery
"... Ever since I could walk, I was caught and practiced by my master. When I got a little older, I either climbed mountains and straddled horses or chopped firewood. Hey! If I talk too much, I will cry!"
Although she said so, there was a smile in her eyes. Obviously hard work may be really hard work, but I am not unhappy.
"Oh, and the time when I was recognized by the Tong family."
Her voice gradually lowered, "Now that I think about it, during that time, I felt like my brain was having a twitch, and I wanted to get back the so-called family relationship. Obviously, I usually have a short temper, and that time was like He became a different person and put up with that family."
In fact, after such a long time, her life is considered happy now, and she has gradually forgotten these things.
She took a sip of the fruit juice: "Now I have figured it out. This person also needs fate to get along with others, and the same goes for family affection. We can't choose what kind of family we are born in. We can only try to hold the future in our own hands." inside."
Shen Mingjiao looked at her with some surprise: "I really didn't see it. You still have this awareness!"
Cui Lingling raised her chin and snorted: "You underestimate people! Where is this? I was less than seven years old and could climb over half of the mountain to go shopping alone. The road I walked and the scenery I saw There are many of you."
After finishing speaking, she quietly looked at Gu Danxue, and saw that although she was sitting quietly and not speaking, her ears were pricked up, as if she was listening very carefully. She breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Mingjiao took a sip of the wine lightly: "It's my turn. If you want to say that the most unhappy days were those years in the Yongchang Hou Mansion, I was only seven years old at that time. Before that, because I was the youngest daughter in the family, My parents and sisters are very used to it. I remember when I was in Qingzhou, a little fat boy from my father’s colleague’s family always liked to pull my braids. Just to my parents for spoiling their children, when I grow up, I will fall into my hands and I won’t be able to marry.” She sighed
"After that, my parents passed away one after another, my sister disappeared, and I was suddenly taken back to the Hou's Mansion in the capital. From being a delicate girl in the palm of my hand to being trampled on all day long, that was the most difficult time in my life."
Gu Danxue smiled and said, "You are luckier than me."
Shen Mingjiao also admits this point, she and Gu Danxue's situation are somewhat similar, but she has remembered at that time, her parents' kindness to her will always remain in her heart, although she has a difficult life in the mansion, but to the family People don't have any expectations of family affection,
If there is no expectation, she will not be sad and sad. At that time, she only thought about how to live.
After finishing speaking, Gu Danxue poured herself a large glass of wine. What she drank was baijiu. Shen Mingjiao looked a little frightened, for fear that she would fall down if she poured down this glass.
Fortunately, Gu Danxue seems to be born with a good capacity for alcohol. After drinking such a big glass of wine, his face didn't even change.
“I was less than four years old when my father sent me back to Beijing. After all these years, I actually don’t remember clearly, I just remember that it seemed very sad at the time.
Actually, at the beginning, my second aunt’s family treated me very well, just like…”
She tilted her head and thought for a while, and her appearance turned out to be a bit playful: "It's like the nanny in charge in my front yard, cautious and pleasing."
"When did it start to change? Probably that year, the border was unstable, and my father didn't send a letter back for a long time. Gu Yun and I had an argument. During the scuffle, we accidentally fell into the lotus pond. At that time, my aunt stared at me as if she wanted to eat people, but in the midst of Gu Yun's mournful cry, she finally couldn't hold back and slapped me across the face.
I was only about five years old at the time, and I fell into the water, so I was frightened and froze. After returning, I developed a fever for several days. When I saw my second aunt again later, I unconsciously felt a little apprehensive. "
She poured herself another glass of wine, smiled wryly and shook her head: "After so many years, sometimes I dream back at midnight and think, if only I could be braver at that time."
If she had been brave enough at the time, the second aunt's family would not have tasted the sweetness and made things worse.
Shen Mingjiao took the jug in front of her, replaced it with fruit wine, and said:
"You also said that you were less than five years old at the time. If a five-year-old child experiences such a thing, it is not normal if he is not afraid in his heart."
Boys are better, especially girls. She once heard Xu Daniu mention it in a few chats, saying that their brothers in the previous camp had died of illness and had no choice but to send their six-year-old daughter to the countryside to be taken care of by their mother.
Border guards generally only have the chance to go home once in several years, and when he finally has the chance to go home. The daughter has been taught by her grandmother to become a paranoid woman who is willing to give everything for her cousin. In order to pay off his cousin's gambling debts, he is willing to marry an old widower in his fifties to fill in the house.
It is very difficult to raise a child well, but it is very easy to raise a bad child.
Cui Lingling asked subconsciously: "Then why didn't you write to Gu Houye?"
After speaking, she realized that she seemed to have asked a stupid question, and couldn't help scratching her hair in annoyance.
She was born in the rivers and lakes since she was a child, so it is naturally impossible for her to understand the twists and turns in the back house.
Gu Danxue hammered his eyelashes, and waved his hand at her indifferently: "Of course I wrote it, but those letters never reached my father.
During that time, the border was not peaceful, and my father only had a chance to come back once every two or three years. My second aunt arranged people around me. Whenever I wanted to talk to my father for a while, my second aunt would look over me, and my body would shudder. I will be instinctively afraid, and my father..."
Cui Lingling didn't know what to say, as if any consolation seemed feeble.
Shen Mingjiao handed over the peeled melon seeds: "It's just that Master Gu is too rough."
As long as Gu Zhao is more careful, Gu Erye's family will never dare to belittle Gu Danxue like this,
Perhaps because of drinking, Gu Danxue talked a lot today, as if he wanted to say all the things that had been kept in his heart all these years, but he didn't mention that Bai Zhegui.
Shen Mingjiao and the two only thought that she was too sad and disappointed to mention it.
Cui Lingling also said: "You are the only daughter of Master Gu. If you want to stay in our arena, you can definitely go sideways. You have heard of Emei Mountain Villa!"
This Shen Mingjiao knows: "I heard from a teahouse storyteller before that Mei Xue, the daughter of the owner of Emei Mountain Villa, has high martial arts skills and is the number one beauty in martial arts."
Cui Lingling sat up straight with great interest: "These are secondary, the most important point is, let me tell you, there are many face heads in her village, and all of them are outstanding in appearance, indifferent, serious, gentle and romantic. Both!"
Shen Mingjiao was very surprised, and at the same time, women were naturally curious about such things: "There really is such a thing? Then she must be very beautiful!"
Cui Lingling shook her head: "It's pretty, but it's still not as good as you and Miss Yunshu."
Gu Danxue was also very interested in hearing it, she hesitated and asked: "Is this going to be bad, will someone tell me?"
Cui Lingling glanced at her, waved her hand and smiled indifferently:
"Of course there is, after all, this kind of thing is deviant in the eyes of the world, but as long as you don't care about it, you will not lose a lot of meat if your mouth grows on others.
To tell you the truth, I used to be very envious of her, thinking that I would get along well in the future, and follow her example, get ten or eight beautiful men by my side, and eat a few more bowls of rice every day just by looking at her.
snort! Why in the world only men can embrace three wives and four concubines, why can't women! "The tone was quite aggrieved.
not far away. Qin Yan, who hadn't seen anyone for a long time, came back to look for him: "..."
