Chapter 132 Hua Yin sells herself to bury her "father"
When Su Yue returned home, it was already dawn, but looking at the time, he had not missed the time he had agreed with others.
So she went back to Pingyuexuan and changed into a lilac round-necked jacket.
Because she had not yet reached the age of marriage, Xiao He still simply tied her hair into a bun, inserted a pair of green jade beads with a gold thread flower wrapped with pearls, and decorated with two small tassels, which made her look a little more delicate.
"Is it because the young lady is about to reach the age of marriage? I always feel that the young lady is getting more beautiful every day. And the young lady's eyes, I have never seen such beautiful eyes, just like... like the stars in the sky."
Xiao He looked at Su Yue who had finished dressing up and praised her sincerely. She also prepared to put on a pair of jade earrings with bells on them for her.
"I won't wear earrings. They don't look good when they fall to the ground." Su Yue turned her head slightly away and refused softly. When she heard Xiao He talking about her eyes, she looked at herself in the mirror.
In the previous life, Su Xin had harmed me to the point where I was completely useless, with only my eyes left. I didn't expect that in the end, they would still be ruined by Su Xin.
Thinking of this, a hint of viciousness flashed in her clear eyes. Since God has given her another chance, she will never have an easy time when she has the ability to trample Su Xin under her feet!
After hearing what Su Yue said, Xiao He no longer insisted, but put the earrings back into the jewelry box.
"Okay, come with me to visit my mother. I haven't seen her for two days."
Su Yue waited until Xiao He had packed up before speaking, and then the master and servant walked towards Tingqin Pavilion.
"Xiaomei, let me do it."
As soon as Su Yue reached the door of Gu's house, she saw Xiaomei, her mother's personal maid, carrying breakfast and walking out, so she hurriedly called her to stop.
Xiaomei heard someone calling her and took a closer look. It turned out to be Miss Su II. She then subdued herself.
Su Yue walked forward and saw that Xiaomei was serving breakfast, a simple bowl of millet porridge with a few fruits, which was still steaming and had not been touched at all. She became curious.
"Are you not feeling well, mother? Why don't you have breakfast?" Su Yue asked softly.
"To answer Miss, Madam just said she couldn't eat." Xiaomei lowered her head and told the truth.
"Leave it to me, you can leave now." Su Yue thought for a moment, then took the breakfast and walked into the room.
"Xiaomei, I told you that you couldn't eat, why are you back again?"
A familiar mother's voice came from the room, but with a hint of annoyance.
"Mother, it's me. Are you feeling unwell? Why don't you have breakfast?" Su Yue replied softly, gently placed the breakfast on the table in the room, and walked towards the inner room.
I saw my mother, Gu, sitting on a stool in the inner room with a lot of things piled in front of her.
"Yue girl, you're here." Gu turned around, put on a smile, and folded the things in her hands together.
"What is mother looking at?" Su Yue stepped forward and sat next to Gu.
"Didn't I discuss this with you before? I asked someone to select some portraits of girls and bring them to you to prepare a concubine for your father. Girl Yue, what do you think of this one?"
After Gu finished speaking, she opened a scroll of portraits and moved closer to Su Yue.
"A pretty girl." Su Yue looked at the heroine in the portrait with a smile on her face and gave a fair evaluation.
"Alas, I just can't find a satisfactory one." When Gu heard Su Yue's words, he sighed, closed the portrait and threw it aside. There were already more than a dozen portraits piled up there.
"Mother, if you can't find someone you like, why don't you take a break, have some breakfast, and go out for a walk with Yue'er? Who knows, maybe you can find someone you like?"
Su Yue stood up and took Gu towards breakfast.
Gu chuckled, but couldn't resist her daughter's domineering attitude. She drank a bowl of millet porridge and was forced to eat a few bites of fruit before the incident ended.
By the time Su Yue took the dressed-up Gu out of the house, it was almost noon. Su Yue accompanied Gu in the carriage and headed towards the most lively place in the imperial city.
"My life is miserable. I only have my old father to rely on at home. Now my father has passed away suddenly. I am penniless. I am willing to sell myself to bury him!"
A familiar and clear female voice came, and Su Yue smiled faintly.
This Mo Jingchen is a man of his word and punctual. If it weren't for the political differences between the two of them, it wouldn't be a bad thing for them to become friends.
Su Yue lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked in the direction where the sound came from. She saw that the place was already crowded with people watching the fun.
Young and old, they blocked Su Yue's view tightly, but just by listening to the voice just now, Su Yue could recognize who it was.
"Stop." Su Yue shouted to the driver, and the driver stopped.
"Miss Yue, what's wrong?" Gu was curious when she saw Su Yue stop the carriage.
"Nothing, mother. I'm looking for an aunt for my father." Su Yuelin got off the carriage, said something incomprehensible, and ran into the crowd.
"She is always so careless, not like a lady from a noble family at all. She doesn't even carry an umbrella." Gu smiled and shook her head, then followed her down.
As Su Yue got closer, she could also hear the discussions of the onlookers.
"Oh, look at this little girl, she's so pitiful." said one person.
"That's right. He looks like he is not very old and has no parents. Don't be fooled by people with bad intentions!" another person continued.
"Wang Er, you feel bad, just buy it. It just so happens that you don't have a wife, so it wouldn't be bad to take her to be your wife!"
Someone nearby started to make a noise, speaking in a teasing tone, causing everyone nearby to laugh.
"I can't afford it." The man called Wang Er muttered.
After Su Yue finally squeezed through the crowd, he saw the woman kneeling on the side of the street. Yes, this person was Hua Yin.
Because they were in Chunxian Pavilion before, Su Yue couldn't take Hua Yin back home directly, so he came up with the plan of selling himself to bury his father.
Su Yue even brought her mother, Gu. As long as her mother agreed and spoke up, Hua Yin would definitely be able to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion legitimately.
"My life is miserable. I only have my old father to rely on at home. Now my father has passed away suddenly. I am penniless. I am willing to sell myself to bury him!"
Hua Yin was kneeling on the ground at this time, with a veil on her face, and she said it again. There was a person covered with a white cloth in front of her. According to what was said, the person in front of her should be Hua Yin's "father".
"Yue girl, we..." Gu just poked her head out from the crowd and was attracted by the cold and elegant woman kneeling on the ground.
Although her face was covered by a white veil, her beauty was still stunning despite being vaguely visible.
"Mother, what do you think of this girl?" Su Yue turned around, looked at her mother and asked with a smile.
"Although her face is covered by a white veil, it seems that her appearance is not bad. But she is a girl from an honest family after all."
Gu looked at Hua Yin. Her words had two meanings. One was that it would be unfair to buy a girl from an honest family to be a concubine. The second was that this girl from an honest family was not sensible enough and could not let go, so she was not suitable to be a concubine.
"Mother." When Su Yue heard what Gu said, she leaned over to Gu's ear and whispered a few words.
"You are quite smart." After hearing this, Mrs. Gu realized that this woman was found by Yue'er, but she came from a poor family. This was just a legitimate reason to bring her into the house, and she felt relieved.
"Since Yue'er has something important to do, I will go back first. Madam, I want this girl."
Gu deliberately raised her voice so that everyone around her, including the servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion, could hear her. Then she left in a carriage. She still had to do what her daughter had just arranged for her to do.
"Miss, how much silver do you need to bury your father?" Su Yue asked loudly when she saw that her mother was satisfied.
When Hua Yin saw the familiar voice, she also looked up.
