The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Qing He recalled what happened at that time, looked coldly at Yao Bilian with a big head and crooked neck, and said: "You pushed me at that time, and I haven't settled the score with you yet! What, are you here to apologize to me today? How did you know where I live?"

Yao Bilian was stunned after hearing this and didn't dare to say anything because she felt guilty!

Li hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Alas, that's all in the past! Miss, please be magnanimous and forgive her for being ignorant at that time... Come, Aunt Xian'er, use tea instead of wine and apologize to Miss on behalf of Lian'er!"

Qing He glanced at Yao Bilian and said, "No need for that! Let me just tell you about my father's news."

Li put down the teacup somewhat awkwardly and said with a smile, "It's like this. I'm now a servant in an official's house. By chance, I found out the whereabouts of Master Yao..."

Qing He continued to ask: "Then how do you know that I am living in Jiang's house now?"

Li smiled and said, "Hey, what a coincidence! My current employer is an acquaintance of Mr. Jiang. When Mr. Jiang sent someone to deliver the letter, I heard it nearby, so I sent someone to ask you out."

Qing He was half-believing and half-doubting after hearing this and asked, "Do you know where my father is?"

Li nodded: "That's right!"

Qing He was shocked and asked, "Where is he now?"

Li said: "This matter is of great importance. I will only speak to the young lady alone. Please step aside for a moment..."

Qing He nodded, turned around and said softly to Yan Shixun: "Brother Shixun, please go downstairs and wait for me. Aunt Xian'er and I will talk alone."

Yan Shixun hesitated and asked, "Are you safe here alone?"

He felt that the mother and daughter opposite him had an indescribable evil temperament, especially the middle-aged woman named Li. Although she had pretty features, her face revealed a sinister and hostile aura. And her fat daughter with a crooked neck had her eyes rolling around, and it was obvious that they were not good people.

Qing He comforted Yan Shixun and said, "I will go downstairs after I have a few words with Aunt Xian'er. You go downstairs and wait for me."

Yan Shixun hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay then! Call me if you have anything."

After saying this, he glanced coldly at Li's mother and daughter, then stood up and went downstairs.

The elegant pavilion was quiet. Qing He looked at Li and said, "Aunt Xian'er, you can speak now."

Li smiled and said, "No hurry, let's eat and talk at the same time. Lian'er, go downstairs and see if there are any delicious sweets and ask the waiter to bring some up."

"Hey!" Yao Bilian agreed, then stood up and went downstairs...

Li smiled and said to Qing He: "What a coincidence, my current employer is Mr. Yao! But now I have to call him Grandpa Yao, because he is already a well-known first-rank official in the court..."

Qing He widened her eyes in shock and asked, "Is he married now?"

Li smiled and said, "Of course! Madam Yao's family is very prominent. Lord Yao was able to rise to his current position thanks to the blessing of his father-in-law. Otherwise, how could a mere scholar rise so fast? Moreover, he now has a son and a daughter, and lives a very happy life!"

The anticipation and excitement on Qinghe's face gradually disappeared...

Her eyes dimmed. Although she had been mentally prepared for this, hearing it with her own ears was another matter.

At this time, Yao Bilian came in and sat down next to Li, and nodded to her quietly.

A waiter came in with a tea tray and served sweet cakes and pastries, put a pot of new tea and six or seven small saucers on the table, and then walked out.

Li placed a plate of basil peach cake in front of Qinghe and said softly, "Miss, have some snacks! My wife used to love basil peach cake the most..."

As he spoke, he added some more tea to her cup.

Yao Bilian ate the crystal osmanthus cake with a proud look on her face while admiring Qinghe's lost expression across from her. She felt an indescribable joy and happiness in her heart...

Ten years ago, when she first met this half-sister, her expression and mood were similar to Qing He's now...

They had not eaten for more than a day and finally arrived at the door of a mansion. Her mother told her that was her father's home.

The young Yao Bilian's eyes flashed with surprise, and the fatigue and hunger of many days were swept away in an instant!

She was secretly surprised in her heart: It turns out that Daddy is so rich and lives in such a nice house. Does that mean I don’t have to run around with Mom in the future and can live the life of a rich girl?

Unexpectedly, Li told her that this mansion belonged to her father's original wife. That woman had a very powerful family, who gave her a mansion, a carriage, and a large number of maids and old women. Today they came to beg that woman to accept them and her daughter.

From that moment on, Bilian realized that her identity was so humble. Her mother used to be someone else's maid, and her biological father was a poor scholar who married a rich girl.

At that time, her mother straightened her clothes, tidied her hair, gave her some instructions, and then went forward to knock on the door.

After a while, the door opened.

A middle-aged servant came out from inside. When he saw the mother and daughter, he was very surprised and asked, "Xian'er, why are you here?"

Li begged softly, "Brother Pang, please let me see the young lady. I came here today to discuss something important with her! Please let me see her for the sake of our past friendship!"

Pang Chunhai looked at her, then looked at the disheveled and ragged-clothed young Bilian, and finally sighed helplessly, "Ah! You guys wait here, I'll go in and tell the young lady."

Li thanked him profusely, and Pang Chunhai went into the inner house to reply.

After half a cup of tea, he came out and said to them, "Come in, the young lady is in the upper corridor."

The short Yao Bilian followed Li nervously, following Pang Chunhai all the way to the upper courtyard of the mansion. The pavilions, towers, rockery and corridors she saw along the way made her feel like she was in a dream...

She never dreamed that there was such a beautiful garden in the world!

Cranes and peacocks can be seen everywhere, walking gracefully, swans in the pond swim freely, and deer look at them as if they are not afraid of people...

The animals Yao Bilian had come into contact with the most in her life were chickens, ducks, geese, cats, dogs and pigs. She lived in a low and simple adobe house, and she relied on wild vegetables and porridge for every meal. Even eating meat was a luxury, not to mention the clothes she wore, which were all patched coarse cloth.

She once ran barefoot for a mile crying to ask her mother for two copper coins to buy candy. Finally, in order not to delay her work, Mrs. Li had to scold her and then gave her the two copper coins.

All the poverty in the past was completely forgotten when Yao Bilian came to this mansion...

The young girl secretly thought that she must stay here no matter what!
