Chapter 8: Contrast in the dream, Luo Zhen is jealous
"Fuer, come to grandma."
As soon as she turned around the folding screen, the old lady waved to Love.
Luo Fu hurried over and was embraced by the old lady. She asked, "Madam, is she looking for you so late because of what the eldest girl said?"
Love nodded.
"I knew it!" The old lady was furious. "How could they do such a thing! They stole your marriage for no reason. I don't know what benefit they saw in it. They have no shame at all!"
She picked up the crutch beside her and was about to stand up, "I'll go find her!"
Luo Fu hurriedly stopped her: "Grandma, don't be anxious. Listen to Fu'er."
She comforted the old lady and helped her sit down, then said carefully, "Grandma, Madam has already persuaded Dad. We can't change what they have decided. Don't go over and get angry for nothing."
"How could I not go?" The old lady gripped her cane tightly. "If Pei Er was a bad guy, it would be fine, but he treated you so well that you couldn't find any fault with him. He is also very ambitious. You want to enjoy life after you marry him. What's in the palace? It's just glamorous!"
Look at the Luo Mansion, there are only a few people there, and yet there are so many dirty things going on. The palace is much more complicated than the Luo Mansion. It would be better for you to live a quiet life in the Pei Family than to fight there."
Luo Fu sighed slightly: "But Grandma, the Pei family can't live in peace forever."
The old lady was still annoyed, but when she heard Love say this, she was stunned.
Luo Fu said, "Pei Ji has a cousin who came to see me before. She told me that she had been serving Pei Ji since she was twelve years old. She and Pei Ji have a deep relationship and are already married. She begged me to take her in."
"What?" The old lady was shocked. "Pei Er never mentioned it. Is this a misunderstanding? Have you asked him?"
Love shook her head.
The old lady said anxiously, "You have to ask. I can see that Pei Er really has you in his heart. Even if this is true, he will definitely listen if you ask him to send the person away."
Luo Fu lowered her eyes and said nothing.
The old lady was anxious for a while, but when she saw that she was silent, she suddenly understood. She asked, "Fu'er, tell me, do you really dislike Pei Er?"
Luo Fu thought for a moment and said, "I don't dislike him, but I can't say I like him either. After all, I've only met him twice..."
She put her arms around the old lady's waist and snuggled into her arms: "Grandma, I think it's the same on both sides, so why should we argue? Besides, I have already asked the madam for the same share of dowry as my elder sister.
Madam is a lady of noble birth, very concerned about her reputation, and has always doted on my elder sister, so her dowry will certainly be generous. With such a generous dowry, I can live well even in the palace. Grandmother knows that Fu'er has never allowed herself to suffer hardship or grievance."
The old lady listened and remembered that when she moved out of her place, there was a mother in her yard who relied on her seniority to steal things and things from her house.
With just a few words, she sent the man downstairs to do menial work.
It was several days later that Cui found out, but she couldn't find any fault.
When Fu'er went to pay her respects, she could only say some sarcastic words like, "The second young lady looks kind-hearted, but she can't even tolerate the mother of her own yard. She is so embarrassed to give away just a little food and small toys, and she can't let go of them. She even drives an old man who has made many contributions to do rough work. She is really petty. With such a temper, she will probably suffer in her husband's family in the future."
It was just a few words. She did what she had to do and dealt with those who had to be dealt with. Fu'er never cared about what was said.
In fact, when you think about it carefully, although Cui and the eldest maid always suppressed Fu'er over the years, it was just small things like reading and writing.
Fu'er gave in to them and acted clumsy in every way, but she was able to live comfortably.
Now she has obtained from Cui the same share of dowry as the eldest maid...
This kid has his own ideas, and he will never have a bad life wherever he goes.
The old lady's heart gradually calmed down. She raised her hand to stroke her smooth black hair, sighing, "Well, since Pei Er already has such a person by his side, even if he sends her away now, there's no guarantee that he won't feel uncomfortable, and there will be problems in the future... Well, then let her enter the palace. My Fu'er is such a lovely girl, how could the king not like her? Being a favorite concubine in the palace will make you comfortable for the rest of your life..."
Love stayed in the old lady's yard for a long time, and only returned to her own yard after coaxing the old lady to sleep.
She usually has a fixed sleep schedule, so she was already extremely sleepy by now.
She didn't expect that there was someone waiting for her in the room.
It’s Luo Zhen.
She wore a new gown with a round collar and shoulder pads in a light blue eight-treasure pattern of crepe, embroidered with colorful figures and landscapes in gold-stitched Yuan satin, and a yellow-green lotus-colored flag belt with three-inlaid, three-tooth, and gold-plated laurel buttons.
She was wearing a green skirt made of eight treasures.
Upright and extremely luxurious.
I think I haven't changed it since I came back from Qingzhou.
Only the bun is a little loose.
It looks like after a short nap.
At this time, he sat upright on the chair with his hands clasped together, unmoved by anything.
Luo Fu resisted her sleepiness and walked over to greet her: "Big sister, what's the matter with you?"
Luo Zhen glanced at her and asked, "Second sister, did you just come back from grandma's room?"
Love said, "Yes."
Luo Zhen asked knowingly, "It's so late, what are you doing in Grandma's room?"
Luo Fu replied calmly, "Go and tell Grandma what Madam told you to do."
Luo Zhen snorted and said with a forced smile, "I warned you earlier to behave yourself and not to flirt with Pei Lang again, but you've become even more aggressive. It seems you don't take me, your elder sister, seriously. Madam must intervene."
Luo Fu looked at her in confusion: "When did Big Sister warn me? That time in the garden? I thought Big Sister was telling me to obey the hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children."
"you…………"
It was like punching cotton. Luo Zhen felt angry, but she couldn't vent it. She could only put on a sullen face and put the matter behind her. "Forget it, I didn't come here to talk about this. Now that you know where you're going, go pack up the things Pei Lang gave you and give them to me. He's your brother-in-law now!"
I just made the agreement with Cui, and now I come to ask for it.
So anxious.
Although Luo Fu didn't understand, she didn't say much. It was indeed inappropriate to keep the things Pei Ji gave her.
She said, "Wait a moment, big sister."
Phytolacca and honeysuckle knew where things were placed better than she did.
Love asked the two of them to clean up.
The two were stunned by what Luo Zhen said.
What do you mean the son-in-law is now the girl's brother-in-law?!
But at this moment, the two girls had no right to speak, so they could only follow orders and go into the bedroom to pack up their things.
Place them one by one on the table.
A glass powder box with a gold floral pattern, a silver enamel Ruyi flat square, an enamel silver comb with a floral tassel, and dragonfly-eye glass beads...
All of them are exquisite.
There is nothing that cannot be human.
It can be seen that they are all carefully selected before being sent.
When the bunch of wild cherry blossoms in the spring vase and the ice-extracted peony hairpin were placed out, Luo Zhen's fingernails almost dug into her palms.
When Cui called Luo Fu over, Luo Zhen was listening behind the low screen.
I don’t know if it was because I was tired from running around, or something else.
As she listened, she fell asleep.
Then I had that dream again.
This time it wasn't the scene after she met the tyrant.
But it was the scene where she had been fighting fiercely with others in the palace.
When she was trying her best to survive and was struggling, the scene changed and it was Love.
She was still the same as usual, wearing a worn and comfortable lotus-colored gauze shirt and a green gauze skirt, standing on the porch in front of the house. There was only a jade hairpin with peony flowers in her dark hair, and she was lazily waving a round fan with agarwood fragrance in her hand.
There is a cherry blossom growing on the tree in the yard.
The corollas and branches are carefully trimmed, filling the entire yard with pink.
The ladder was placed under the tree trunk. Pei Ji tied the hem of his long gown around his waist, climbed up the ladder, took the hemp cloth from the servant and wrapped it thickly around the tree trunk.
Then tie hemp ropes as thick as an adult's arm at both ends, and finally carefully wrap them around the sandalwood seat.
After everything was done, he sat on it to test it out. Seeing that it was very stable, he stood up and said to Luo Fu, "Fu'er, come here."
Luo Fu went over and sat down as she was told.
Pei Ji pushed gently from behind.
Mountain cherry blossom petals are flying.
The beauty's smile is as beautiful as a flower.
The handsome man behind him, who always seemed stern and cold, now had eyes full of doting and tenderness.
This dream seemed to be deliberately trying to irritate her.
She was indeed angry.
After waking up, I felt very uncomfortable and everything was not pleasing to the eye.
On what basis?
In order to enter the palace, she went through countless hardships from childhood to adulthood.
After entering the palace, she suffered countless grievances and intrigues. Even her daily meals had to be carefully prepared. It was truly difficult at every step.
Where's Carol?
This lazy, stupid, unambitious, and unpromising half-sister, whom she had always looked down upon, now lived a life like a fairy.
The powerful man's heart and eyes are all devoted to her, and he carefully selects the gifts he gives her.
He even did small things like making the swing himself.
Just to make her smile.
That would have been fine, but she could actually rely on this man to ascend to the throne of queen, a position that all women dream of!
Whenever Luo Zhen thought of this, jealousy turned into blood and energy rushing to her head, until she could no longer bear it and came to Luo Fu's yard.
A fool who has only beauty but no knowledge deserves to die miserably!
She shouldn't have had so much luck!
She wanted to take back everything Pei Ji gave her without leaving a single thing!
She wanted to make sure that she would not have any comfort at all while she was suffering in the deep palace!
Only in this way can she relieve the jealousy in her heart.
