Fu Rong's family came and made a big fuss, and the eldest wife Zhang knew about it.

She is angry.

"These country bumpkins are so ignorant and fearless that they dare to come to our house and kill people!" the eldest lady said angrily.

As Yan Xin and Fu Rong analyzed, the eldest wife would never dare to abandon her widowed daughters-in-law.

"This is not their country clan."

Later, the concubine Mai Qiu told the eldest wife that Fu Rong's mother-in-law went to Jiang Mansion to kill people because of the gossip.

The mother-in-law didn't give the order. She probably heard that Fu Rong wanted to be a dancer. She felt that she was degenerate and looked down on her, so she told Fu Rong's sister-in-law.

The eldest wife immediately dismissed the talkative mother-in-law.

She went to Fu Rong, comforted her a few words, and said, "As long as I am here, Jiang Mansion will always be your home. If they make trouble again, just tell me!"

Fu Rong felt calm after hearing this.

She is wary of everyone in the Jiang family, except Yan Xin.

However, she still looked very moved: "I will rely on you from now on."

A few days later, Yan Xin heard from Mrs. Cheng that Fu Rong's family had removed her from the clan and disowned her as their daughter.

After her parents passed away, she was not allowed to go back to express condolences.

"...That's too cruel. Do you hate her so much?" Yan Xin sighed after hearing this.

This cut off Fu Rong's path socially.

The fifth young master pushed Fu Rong, but Fu Rong resisted and tried to climb up. At this time, her mother-in-law pushed her again.

I wonder if she will fall again this time.

Yan Xin's life was once so difficult. He took one step and was pushed and pushed by others. He took two steps and stumbled forward.

"Fifth Young Mistress doesn't care either. The more the Fu family behaves like this, the more she will be determined to go all the way." Sister-in-law Cheng said.

Yan Xin didn’t care anymore.

She sympathized with Fu Rong, but restrained her excess kindness. Any emotion that is excessive is harmful.

Fu Rong still goes to work at Lixuan Dance Hall.

The eldest lady did not stop her, but instead allocated a servant for her to use, and hinted that she would contribute to the household expenses. Fu Rong delayed as long as she could, but did not let the eldest wife get her wish.

She went to the cabaret every afternoon to prepare things for the dancers and their dinner.

She went to the warehouse to get powder and took the stairs at the back. This staircase is similar to the special staircase used by distinguished guests to go upstairs.

At the corner of the stairs, Fu Rong saw several young people.

The leader was a young man, about in his early twenties, wearing a navy blue woolen cloak. He is a tall man, and his cloak reaches to his ankles, but it does not weigh down his stature.

The people following him were all luxuriously dressed, fashionable and exquisite. Because they are all shorter than him, they look like his followers.

He has very bright eyes and single eyelids. Because her eyelids are relatively thin, her eyes are large and lively, and the bright light falling on Fu Rong is hard to ignore.

Fu Rong also looked at him.

——I seem to have seen it before, it looks familiar.

She leaned aside and waited for these people to turn around.

"Alas, you are not that person..." The young man spoke first.

As he spoke, his face turned red for no reason, and he suddenly felt embarrassed, "What are you doing here?"

Fu Rong was baffled.

"I am a servant, a distinguished guest." Fu Rong said

The young man was a little annoyed: "Are you mocking me?"

Fu Rong: "..."

Her tone was very respectful and definitely not sinister. Why would he think it was sarcastic?

A steward came over and smoothed things over: "Why did you offend the Second Young Master? Please apologize to the Second Young Master."

Then he confessed to Zhou Muzhi in a low voice, "She is new here, Sun Xiangzhu's disciple. If she is offended, your lord will not remember the fault of others."

Zhou Muzhi was slightly surprised: "Apprentice? Isn't she the widow of the Jiang family?"

Fu Rongfu looked at him again.

Zhou Muzhi looked at her, his eyes falling on her snowy neck. The scene in front of the bamboo forest window always appeared in his mind, and his face began to turn red again.

Fortunately, the light here is orange, and it shines on people's faces, so no change in facial expressions can be seen.

"Does the Second Young Master know her? She is indeed widowed and is looking for a living. It's so pitiful that the Second Young Master is so arrogant."

Fu Rong listened for a long time, but still didn't remember who this person was.

I have some impressions, but they are too thin to be matched with specific people.

Seeing Fu Rong frowning, Guan Shu winked at her again: "Ah Rong, apologize!"

Fu Rong stood respectfully: "Second Young Master, I deserved death for my collision. Please atone for your sin."

Zhou Muzhi waved his hand.

A group of them went upstairs to see the singer Shengqiu.

When Shengqiu heard that he was the second son of Zhou Longtou's family, he naturally smiled and treated them to tea.

A group of people crowded into Shengqiu's rest room. Because she is Cheng Sanniang's signature character, no one dares to tease her. Cheng Sanniang was annoyed and they couldn't eat and walked around.

Zhou Muzhi was lost in thought alone.

He leaned against the window and smoked, feeling depressed and feeling that something was not right.

Shengqiu saw it and thought it was funny: "Why did this idiot come to my place pretending to be serious today?"

Later, instead of listening to Shengqiu singing, he found Cheng Sanniang.

He asked Cheng Sanniang: "Sister Cheng, why is the fifth young lady of Jiang Mansion working in the song and dance hall?"

"If a dead man wants to eat, doesn't he have to go out and do things?" Cheng Sanniang said.

Zhou Muzhi: "The Jiang family doesn't have food for her? She is a good girl, can she do it?"

"She's quite capable."

"Is she a dancer?" Zhou Muzhi asked.

After hearing this, Cheng Sanniang looked at him deeply: "Mu Zhi, are you planning to redeem her life?"

Zhou Muzhi was very embarrassed and denied: "I have no such plan. I just asked. How good of a business can a good girl come out to do this and be so clumsy?"

"Muzhi, what do you want to say?"

"I..." His eyes wandered, "My aunt needs someone to serve her. Ask her if she is willing. It's better than welcoming them here. Look at how stupid she is!"

Cheng Sanniang smiled and said: "Muzhi, I don't have a contract of sale here. You can come and leave whenever you want, unless it's someone I paid money to favor.

She's not that important yet. If you feel pity for her, go ask her yourself instead of asking me. She is not stupid and knows how to do things. "

Zhou Muzhi was annoyed: "I don't pity her."

He turned away.

Then Cheng Sanniang heard someone say that Zhou Muzhi still asked around, wanting to know what Fu Rong was doing at Lixuan Dance Hall.

After asking about it, the second son of the Zhou family ran to the Lixuan Song and Dance Hall if he had something to do.

Cheng Sanniang saw this and was secretly puzzled.

Fu Rong also suddenly remembered who Zhou Muzhi was that night.

I don't remember his appearance, but his tone.

When Jiang Huitong asked him who he was when they first met, he said, "I am a distinguished guest." When they met this time, Fu Rong respectfully called him "a distinguished guest," and he said that Fu Rong was mocking him.

——That’s what it meant.

Fu Rong also remembered the scene in the bamboo forest. She almost went crazy with fear.

Then she met Zhou Muzhi several times at the Lixuan Dance Hall, but she avoided them.

I really couldn't avoid it, and my attitude was extremely respectful. I just asked not to offend this person and cause trouble for my errand.
