Princess Xiangrui in Huanzhu

Chapter 38 Picking Lotus

Liu was also a decisive person. She pulled Daya to kowtow to Hexi.

It would be hell for her to go back anyway, so she might as well give it a try.

It’s just that she is Yaozu… There was a hint of hesitation in Liu’s eyes, and then she became firm.

Wang Laizi favors boys over girls and treats Yaozu very well, so she doesn't need to worry.

But when you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; when you marry a dog, you follow the dog. Even if Wang Laizi has many faults, it is extremely difficult to leave him.

This was certainly not a difficult task for Hexi. After consulting Emperor Qianlong, he also expressed deep sympathy for the mother and daughter's situation.

Seeing that Hexi had finally found someone he liked, Qianlong called E Min to handle the matter.

Wang Laizi had already gone home and was easy to find. E Min came back a little later with a divorce letter.

As for how he got the divorce letter, I won't go into details. I heard that Wang Laizi lay in bed for several days, but later he turned over a new leaf and stopped gambling, living with his son. Of course, this is a story for later.

Hexi hated the divorce letter, which showed the evil habit of male superiority over women. However, it was now the only way for Liu to be free.

Liu took the divorce letter and burst into tears, not knowing whether she was crying for the future or the past.

In this way, Liu and Daya served Hexi for the time being, waiting to work at the farm after they returned.

***

The night brings tranquility, but also breeds a lot of random thoughts.

"Ziwei, you said it was me who saved Daya, so how come Hexi got all the benefits?" Xiaoyanzi was unhappy. She didn't expect that Hexi got a bargain.

"I've decided! I want to get a maid too!"

Little Swallow came up with whatever she wanted and made everyone laugh.

I didn't expect that this servant would be killed so quickly with just one word. At that time, Xiaoyanzi couldn't laugh anymore.

After several days of traveling in the wild, we finally arrived in the town on the third day.

E Min and Fu Kang'an observed the surroundings to see if there was any danger.

There was a group of people gathered in front, talking a lot.

How can Xiaoyanzi be missing in such a lively moment?

She pulled Ziwei and Yongqi and rushed forward excitedly.

It turns out that she sold herself to bury her father!

I saw a young girl in mourning clothes kneeling on the ground, and in front of her was her father who had no money to bury his body.

As the saying goes, if you want to look pretty in mourning, you have to look beautiful. This girl looks pitiful and pretty.

There was a piece of white cloth in front of the girl, on which it was written that whoever could help her bury her father would sell himself as a slave.

Suddenly a group of bullies came, led by a playboy who looked like a playboy.

He called a group of his followers and tried to kidnap the man in the street.

Xiaoyanzi could still tolerate this and rushed forward without saying a word. Seeing this, the four guards had no choice but to join the battle.

The young master brought a group of thugs with him. The mob had no fighting power and they were rolling on the ground after a few rounds.

"Humph, you're so lucky to have met me today, you want to rob me of my daughter!"

After driving the bully away, Xiaoyanzi thought that this was just like a pillow given to her at the right time.

This time she couldn't let Hexi take advantage of the situation. Xiaoyanzi hurriedly asked Yongqi to take the money to bury the girl's father.

He Xi naturally understood Xiao Yanzi's thoughts and secretly laughed at Xiao Yanzi for being so petty.

The thing that the palace has the most of is maids, and she really doesn't like this girl.

Compared to Daya's simplicity and kindness, this girl is unpredictable. She might end up losing more than she gains.

Yongqi had no idea of ​​Xiaoyanzi's plan, so he put down his purse and wanted to leave.

"Young master, please stay!" the girl called out to Yongqi.

"Sir, after I bury my father, I will follow you peacefully."

"No, this money is for your burial. As for selling yourself into slavery, you don't need it."

"Sir, I am a lotus-picking girl, and I will not accept gifts without merit. If you do not like me, then I will die to show my loyalty."

"Hey! No, no, no!" Yongqi was frightened.

"Okay, then come with us!" Xiaoyanzi agreed immediately, which was exactly what she wanted.

So Cai Lian buried her father and followed him away.

Xiaoyanzi tried many times to get Cailian to follow her, but Cailian refused every time.

She said it was Yongqi who paid for her father's burial, and she should follow him.

He Xi was almost stupefied by these high-sounding words.

It was obvious that she had a crush on Yongqi, but she was still able to pretend that everything was true.

Yongqi has been really annoyed these days and has gotten himself into a big trouble.

Xiaoyanzi also felt a little regretful. She agreed to let Cailian follow because she was angry with Hexi and didn't want to fall behind Hexi. She didn't expect that Cailian was so bold and fell in love with Yongqi.

Although Xiaoyanzi is carefree, she is a girl after all. Besides, she and Yongqi had revealed the secret of love before, so she also noticed Cailian's feelings.

Little Swallow was both angry and anxious, but Cai Lian turned out to be a great white lotus, making Little Swallow miserable.

These days, Xiaoyanzi and Cailian were jealous of each other, and Yongqi was caught in the middle and felt torn.

Look, Xiaoyanzi is getting angry again.

"Huh? Where's Xiaoyanzi? Why didn't she come to dinner?" Qianlong looked around, confirmed that Xiaoyanzi was absent, and asked puzzledly.

Ziwei was a little embarrassed. Should she say that Xiaoyanzi was jealous and couldn't eat? If Qianlong continued to ask, it would be bad.

Fortunately, Xiaoyanzi came out by herself a little later.

It’s not that she has figured it out, but she is so hungry that she can’t stand it. Man is iron and food is steel, and Xiaoyanzi will never hurt her internal organs.

Yongqi picked out a few dishes and brought them to Cailian. It was no surprise that she fell ill due to the hassle of keeping up with the large group these days and the sudden change in Xiaoyanzi's attitude.

"Hmph! Yongqi really is a gentle and considerate person!" Xiaoyanzi said sourly.

"Xiaoyanzi, Yongqi is a prince, isn't it normal for him to be kind to women?" Qianlong said nonchalantly, "You too, why do these words sound strange to you as a younger sister?"

Qianlong's unintentional words frightened Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi so much that they dared not to be angry anymore.

He Xi almost laughed out loud when she heard this. Their explosive relationship would be explosive news even in modern times, not to mention in ancient times when etiquette was strict.

Yongqi came back soon after delivering the meal. Xiaoyanzi had no appetite, so she ate a few bites quickly and went back to her room.

Yongqi followed closely behind. Qianlong looked suspicious, wondering why these two children were so strange.

That look frightened the other four people again.

Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi naturally went to talk to each other. I don't know what they talked about, but I know that when Xiaoyanzi came back, her eyes were full of love, and she showed a girlish shyness for the first time.

The next day, Yongqi wanted to drive Cailian away, and he was determined.

Cailian followed all the way in straw sandals, her feet were worn out. Finally, she gave up following when they reached the post station and left with the silver given by Yongqi.

The appearance of Cai Lian seemed to be a catalyst, and the relationship between Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi became much closer.

They were so close that Emperor Qianlong looked at them sideways many times, and only after being persuaded by Ziwei and Erkang and others did they finally restrain themselves.

Fortunately, Qianlong did not have such a wild imagination, or he did not dare to think about it. It was too terrible for brother and sister to have an affair.
