I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

When they reached the river, the four sisters got out of the car and walked.

The crowd was crowded, and people were already squatting to release river lanterns. Fu Yuzheng was quick-eyed and grabbed an empty spot.

"Sister, come quickly!"

The cheers pierced the night sky, like the chirping of a lark, and flew into a luxurious carriage speeding on the side of the road.

Inside the car, the man in black brocade clothes sitting in the main seat was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, resting.

Hearing this, he lifted a corner of the curtain.

Twenty steps away, on the grass by the river, a girl in a crabapple-red cloak, with a hairband of the same color swaying along her black hair, raised her hands and waved them freely, her fair, pretty face filled with a smile.

That laughter was so sweet, full of joy, making everyone who heard it happy too.

Gao Ni curled his lips and smiled.

Qingchuan, who was riding a horse beside the carriage, also saw Fu Yuzheng and said to Qingshan beside him: "What a coincidence, isn't that Miss Fu San?"

Qingshan: “Yeah.”

Qingchuan glanced at Gao Ni and asked Qingshan tentatively: "Brother, do you want to stay for a while?"

Qingshan rolled his eyes at him and said, "If you want to live a long life, don't speculate on the master's preferences."

Qingchuan shrank his neck.

Although Qingshan said that, he still slowed down the speed of the carriage appropriately. He did not speed up again until Fu Yuzheng's beautiful figure completely disappeared from his sight.

He also noticed that his master treated Miss Fu San a little differently.

It may be too early to say “like” it, but I definitely don’t “hate” it.

On the other side, Fu Yuzheng was completely unaware that Gao Ni had passed by, and happily took her sister to release the river lanterns.

The lotus lantern is lit and placed in the water.

Close your eyes and make a wish.

"I wish my parents to live happily ever after, my sister to find a good husband, and I wish I can live a peaceful and happy life."

After making the wish, Fu Yuzheng pretended to appreciate the river scenery, but actually began to search for the bitch who changed the fate of her parents in the previous life.

The girl's name is Liu Qing'er, the daughter of my father's savior.

During the Lantern Festival, Liu Qing'er was accidentally pushed into the river. Her parents were kind and ordered the guards to rescue her to shore. After asking, they found out that Liu Qing'er was the orphan of her father's deputy general who died in battle. Out of gratitude, they took her back to the Marquis' Mansion and raised her as a young lady. However, she was greedy and secretly interfered with her parents' marriage, causing the couple to separate.

Finally, my mother was so heartbroken that she jumped into the river and committed suicide.

Filled with guilt and despair, Dad embraced Mom's urn and exiled himself to the cold and windy northwest. He never returned to the bustling capital.

It's a sad story.

In this life, Fu Yuzheng swore that she would never let Liu Qing'er have an easy life.

A three-story luxury pleasure boat slowly sailed from the west of the river. In her memory, Liu Qing'er fell into the water near the pleasure boat.

"Puff-"

"Puff-"

Soon, there were two sounds of falling into the water.

Fu Yuzheng looked carefully, this life has changed, besides Liu Qing'er, there was also... Fu Yuyao who fell into the water?

The two girls couldn't swim and cried for help.

It alarmed the guests on the painting boat.

"A girl fell into the water——"

Gao Yan happened to be standing on the deck of the pleasure boat admiring the moon. He turned his head and saw that the person floating in the water was none other than Fu Yuyao, whom he had been thinking about all the time.

"Yao'er, don't be afraid, I'm coming!"

Gao Yan shouted, pushed away the guards who were in the way, and jumped down without caring about anything.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the river water was icy cold, but Gao Yan, whose heart was nourished by love, seemed to feel the coldness of the river water and ran to the girl who had been dreaming about him.

Finally, finally he held her in his arms.

"Yao'er, Yao'er."

Gao Yan picked up Fu Yuyao, who had fainted from the cold, and climbed onto the pleasure boat regardless of anything else. Under the astonished gazes of the young masters and ladies, he carried her into a room as if no one was around.

She asked for a set of clean clothes, closed the door, and changed Fu Yuyao into them personally.

The ladies watching outside the door were stunned.

This was so open that all the noble ladies pouted their lips: "As expected, they had an affair at the coming-of-age banquet. Looking at this situation, they are as sweet as honey, just like newlyweds."

"If I didn't know, I would have thought they were married."

"The eldest daughter of the Fu family (Fu Yuyao), could she be the future wife of the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion?"

"You're overthinking. She's just a girl from the second house of the Marquis of Jingyang's mansion. Her father is a worthless person. It's impossible for her to marry into the royal family and become the wife of the crown prince in this lifetime."

"At best, I'll be a concubine."

"That's it. Gao Yan might end up favoring his concubine over his wife in the future..."

After a round of discussion, there was still no sign of who his wife was, and the blame of "favoring his concubine and ignoring his wife" had been firmly put on Gao Yan.

This reputation has really taken a sharp turn for the worse.

Back then, Gao Yan conquered thousands of girls with his outstanding family background, outstanding appearance, and eloquent talent. He was their dream lover.

now……

Haha, no one is willing to admit that they had a crush on Gao Yan.

It seems that whoever has had a secret crush on someone is blind and stupid.

Of course, Gao Yan, who was currently immersed in the honeypot of love, could not hear these rumors, and even if he heard them, he would not care.

Love makes people blind.

Perhaps, only when the passion fades away can we regain our rationality.

In the armchair in the elegant room of the painted boat, Gao Yan hugged the frozen Fu Yuyao tightly to keep her warm, and there were five pots of burning silver charcoal around his feet.

Fu Yuyao woke up slowly and saw Gao Yan's anxious eyes. She knew that she had won the bet.

It turned out that she saw Gao Yan on the pleasure boat on the river bank and deliberately fell into the water to attract his attention.

There was no way. He had been ignoring her for a while. She was anxious and she would rather take a risk.

Fortunately, the bet was right.

Suddenly, Fu Yuyao remembered something and hurriedly covered her face with her hands to prevent him from looking.

Gao Yan comforted her softly, "Yao'er, don't be afraid. I have prepared a snow cream for you. Apply it for half a month and your skin will be back to normal. Look, the streak on my face has disappeared."

As he spoke, he took out a small bottle of snow skin cream from his arms.

During this period, his mother was very strict and even replaced his trusted servants. Gao Yan secretly carried this bottle on his body without telling his mother, hoping that he would have the opportunity to smuggle it out one day so that he could give it to his Yao'er.

"Snow Skin Cream?"

Fu Yuyao's gloomy heart suddenly brightened up. She looked carefully at Gao Yan's face, and the long bloodstain that had been there before was completely gone.

She hurriedly took it, unscrewed it, and started applying it immediately.

Gao Yan smiled, dug out the white ointment with his own hands, and applied it on her body inch by inch in circles.

"Brother Yan, is Yao'er... ugly now?"

"You are not ugly. In my heart, you are always the most beautiful."

Fu Yuyao leaned sweetly on Gao Yan's shoulder, and the gloom in her heart a while ago was swept away.

What the two of them didn't know was that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was standing outside the private room at this moment, with a sinister look on her face, wanting to kill someone. But when she thought of the bottle of snow cream, she held back for the time being.

Want to be beautiful?

Hmm, we'll see.

By the way, Fu Yuyao was lucky that Gao Yan rescued her in time.

Liu Qing'er has a very unfortunate fate.

Fu Yuzheng immediately paid for a boatman to salvage the fish. Before launching the boat, she hinted, "Let her suffer a little more, just don't let her die."

It is not acceptable to intentionally drown someone in public. If you don't save him, someone else will.

Instead of this, it would be better to let Liu Qing'er suffer a little more, even if it freezes her bones.

Fortunately, the boatman was knowledgeable and he almost froze Liu Qing'er to death.

"Sister, Fu Yuyao has gone to the pleasure boat. I'm afraid that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo will cause trouble again. It's better for you and the two brothers to guard the pleasure boat. I will take care of the girl who fell into the water in the inn later."

Fu Yuzheng found an excuse to get them away.

Fu Yushu and the eldest son Fu Jingxuan did not doubt him and nodded, and the whole group boarded the pleasure boat.

Here, Fu Yuzheng really took Liu Qing'er to the inn.

"Boss, find me a room upstairs. I'll book it for half a month."

The frozen Liu Qing'er was put on the bed and a doctor was called. The doctor said that the girl would not wake up for a while and might not wake up until tomorrow morning.

Fu Yuzheng: ...

I originally wanted to talk to Liu Qing'er tonight, and if we reached an agreement, I would send her away from Beijing directly.

There's no way, there's no way the talks will pan out tonight.

Fu Yuzheng could only pay the old maid of the inn to take care of Liu Qing'er, and left a servant boy and a maid to watch over Liu Qing'er to prevent her from running away.

Fu Yuzheng went back to the houseboat to reunite with her sister and the others.

Prepare to deal with Liu Qing'er tomorrow morning.

Unexpectedly, just as she returned to the houseboat and the maid led her into the wing where her sisters were, a dark shadow suddenly jumped out from behind the door, covered Fu Yuzheng's mouth and nose with a handkerchief, knocked her unconscious and carried her away.

It turned out that Fu Jingming bribed this guide.

"Quick, quick——"

Fu Jingming jumped onto the carriage and headed straight for Chunxianglou, the largest brothel in the capital.
