After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart

 Chapter 9: Get Meiji

The three masters and servants have been busy these days and have saved a lot of embroidery. But how to take it out of the house and exchange it for money was a worry for several people.

Sima Mansion has strict rules and you are not allowed to leave the house at will. Fortunately, Lan Tian is an enthusiastic person and tried every possible means to find a way out.

There is a servant **** the second door who is responsible for running errands. She was Aunt Luo Fu's nanny. She was also brought from her natal family when her aunt married into the Sima Mansion. She can also be regarded as their Luo family.

Love's aunt was originally the wife of Sima Zhengde's brother Sima Zhengren. Once the Luo family was convicted, Love and her aunt relied on the Sima Mansion to avoid being implicated, but the Sima family could not tolerate the daughter of the offending minister as the main wife. Not only did the Sima family regret Love's engagement, but their aunt, who had been married to Sima Zhengren for more than twenty years, was demoted from the main wife to the side wife.

My aunt has now moved out of Sima Mansion and is living in her family temple on the outskirts of Beijing. As she was demoted, all the servants around her were also sent to various parts of the Sima Mansion.

After Love heard the news from Lan Tian, ​​she quickly took the two little girls to the second gate to look for the old woman.

When her aunt was in glory, there were many servants serving her. Although Love didn't recognize this old lady, she did recognize her young master. When she saw Love from a distance, she hurriedly came up to her and knelt at her feet. Said: "Miss, are you here to find this old slave?"

Lantian said hurriedly: "Madam, this is Grandma Li next to my aunt."

Love quickly helped her up, and several people came to a secluded place. Love asked her, "Do you know how my aunt is doing now?"

Aunt Li wiped her tears and replied: "Although my aunt was sent to the family temple, she was not treated harshly. I made inquiries a few days ago and heard that she was injured because she missed the second young lady and young master in the house day and night. I lost my health and my old problem of heart palpitations came back."

Sima Zhengren's aunt has a son and a daughter. Her daughter Sima Chuge is only one year younger than her, at fifteen, while her youngest son Sima Cheng is only seven years old and needs her mother's care.

How can my aunt not miss her child?

Love took out the letter from her sleeve pocket and said to Grandma Li, "Is there any way for Grandma to bring this letter to my aunt?"

Li Yan replied: "I often go to the temple to send things in the temple. This is not difficult. The young lady just gives it to the old slave."

Love nodded, handed the letter to Grandma Li, and said: "I can't help myself now. I made some embroidery here, and I also asked Grandma to take it out for me to exchange for silver."

Although Nanny Li has become a rough woman in the house, because she is doing errands, it is very convenient to leave the house. Nanny Li happily agreed, and Lan Tian Yuzhu and the others handed her the wrapped embroidery.

Grandma Li glanced at the thick package and couldn't help but shed tears again: "When the eldest lady was at home, she was the eyeball of the master and his wife. She has been pampered and pampered since she grew up. I see that you are now worried about your livelihood. I feel so uncomfortable."

Luofu couldn't help but feel sad when she saw the old servant at home crying. She comforted Grandma Li and said, "Don't be discouraged, Grandma. Even though Luofu has fallen, at least my aunt and I are still here. Sooner or later, we will have a better future." The day I turned over."

Mama Li held back her tears and looked at Love: "The eldest lady has been an adventurous person since she was a child. As long as you are here, our family still has hope."

Love said goodbye to Grandma Li and walked back with the two girls. Halfway there, she happened to bump into Sima Chao who was returning from duty.

Sima Chao is now the commander of the Forbidden Army, responsible not only for the defense of the imperial city, but also for the Zhao prison.

His posture is upright, his face is resolute and solemn, and his red red official uniform with flying fish patterns accentuates his inhuman indifference.

When Love saw him, she walked past him expressionlessly, but was grabbed by Sima Chao with one hand.

 “What did you do?” He held her wrist with his hand, but his face was still facing forward, and he did not look sideways at her.

Love didn’t look at her either, and just replied coldly: “I came out to get some air.”

Sima Chao used a little force on his hands to hold her in front of him. Although Love couldn't resist him, his face stubbornly turned away from looking at her. Sima Chao took off one hand and held her petite chin, Forcing her to look at him. He stared at her and asked: "How long are you going to make trouble?"

Love was restrained by him and forced to face him, but she lowered her eyes and still refused to look at him.

Her silence made Sima Chao even more irritated. With a little force on his hand, Love felt pain in her lower forehead that was pinched by him. Although she gasped in pain, she still endured it. He made a sound like last time and didn't shed any tears.

Sima Chao's face gradually turned pale, and he made an angry "gurgling" sound in his throat. He gritted his teeth and stared at the woman in front of him and said fiercely: "You stubborn woman!"

Seeing that Love was about to be restrained by him and her face became increasingly pale, Lan Tian and Yu Nuan were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy.

Lan Tian cried and said: "My lord, please let me go. My wife is not good at all. Why do you keep pushing me so hard?"

Sima Chao then let go of Luo Fu, and turned to glare at Lan Tian who was kneeling on the ground and said: "Who said she has nothing wrong? She made the stupidest mistake by disobeying me. You are messing around here." Talk, **** it!”

As he spoke, he ordered the attendants behind him: "Get this maid, pull her down and beat her to death with sticks."

The guards came up in response. Lan Tian was so frightened that he burst into tears. Love quickly stepped forward to protect Lan Tian, ​​glaring at Sima Chao and saying, "If you have any grievances, just come to me. Don't embarrass my maid."

Sima Chao ignored him and waved his hand to the attendant, saying ruthlessly: "Pull it down."

The servant ignored Lan Tian's cry and forced himself to pull Lan Tian away. Yu Nuan burst into tears and chased after him. The master and servant were mixed together, while Sima Chao stood aside and showed no emotion.

 Love knew that he was cruel.

 Finally, she bowed her head to him.

"Please, let Lan Tian go. I'm begging you." She stood in front of him, shedding tears, her thin body fragile.

Sima Chao finally let go, and the guard let go of Lan Tian. The two little girls knelt on the ground, too frightened to say anything.

Sima Chao approached Luo Fu and forced her into the corner. His animal-like eyes stared at him and asked: "Can you obey me?"

Love sniffed and turned to one side. She did not nod and did not dare to disobey him anymore.

Just at this moment, a woman's soft voice came: "Master, what are you doing?"

The two of them followed the call and saw a young woman in colorful clothes standing there, with almond-shaped eyes and peach cheeks, and a voice like the cry of an oriole, charming and moving.

This should be Sima Chao's new concubine, who has just been promoted to a thin horse in his concubine.

When Sima Chao saw the woman, he let go of Love. With a playful smile on his lips, he waved to the woman: "Rouji, come here!"

The woman was saved, with a gentle smile on her face, and slowly came towards Sima Chao.

Sima Chao took Love's hand in front of her, left Love in the corner, and left with Mei Ji.
