But for some reason, she always felt that whoever liked her had an ulterior motive, or was blind.
Otherwise, what would be worth liking about her?
Apart from her pretty face, she has a bad personality, is easily impulsive, and is not thoughtful enough to necessarily consider other people's feelings.
He is also careless and might accidentally let out people's secrets, and his willpower is not very strong. In short, he is a very bad person.
So she asked, "Why do you trust me so much?"
Helan Ruizhe seemed to understand her subtext and said, "Susu, because you're worth it. I won't say anything nice, I just love you and care about you, so I want to treat you well, and I believe in you. You don't have to rush to deny yourself. Although I never knew you before, I am sure that you are the best you right now."
The more he said this, the more inferior Jin Suting felt. How could she deserve such love from others?
"But I'm really not a good person. I have a bad temper and I'm rude. You haven't seen this other side of me. I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it after you know it, and..."
A hug drowned out the rest of Jin Suting's words. She felt his heartbeat like a drum and suddenly felt at ease.
"I believe in you, and please believe in yourself, okay?"
She felt it, she believed it.
Jin Suting once heard a saying that goes like this: If a person wants to love you, he must have seen your worst and darkest side. After seeing it, if he still decides to like you, then that is true love.
She believed it so much that because of this, Helan Ruizhe had never seen her bad side and doubted his love for her.
But there is no systematic theory in love.
Love is not something that can be expressed in words, it is something that is seen with the eyes and felt with the heart.
When the time is right and the person is right, we fall in love.
Helan Ruizhe finally gave her a piece of jade and told her that it was the jade that Helan Minzhi had been longing for. She had always wanted to polish a bracelet, but couldn't find a good piece of jade. Helan Ruizhe had found out about this yesterday through someone he had sent to the palace.
"Then why not just polish the jade bracelet and give it to Princess Minzhi?"
"Time doesn't allow it. Polishing a bracelet takes at least half a month, and at most several months. But there are only three days left until Helan Minzhi's birthday."
"Besides, giving a piece of jade directly like this makes us look very wealthy."
——
Helan Minzhi has been very happy recently.
She heard that her grandmother was going to hold a birthday party for her.
It had been a long time since she had celebrated her birthday in such a grand manner.
When she was little, on her birthday, her mother would not eat for the whole day. Instead, she would take the copper coins she had saved for her a few months in advance and go to the best restaurant to buy a chicken leg.
It was just a chicken leg, but she ate it happily.
Even if you enter the palace and eat delicious food, it will not be as delicious as the chicken legs at that time.
Her mother didn't have much money and was kicked out of the brothel after she became pregnant. What kind of work could a woman in a brothel do with a big belly?
Life was very hard for them during that time, really hard. My mother washed clothes for others, soaking her fingers in the cold winter water until they turned red and she got frostbite. She couldn't even afford to buy good plasters.
Later, her mother fell ill due to exhaustion. She remembered that one day, her mother suddenly said that she wanted to take her to Funing.
She thought that Funing was the place her mother had talked about many times in her dreams, and it was her mother's hometown.
It must be beautiful, she imagined and looked forward to returning to her mother's hometown, but after entering Funing City, she was separated from her mother forever.
She entered the palace and became a princess. Before she even understood the concept of a princess, she was beaten up by the mothers-in-law with scissors and combs, and then put on those heavy jewelry that made her breathless.
Then they took her to meet a fierce-looking woman who, they said, was her grandmother.
Although her grandmother was fierce, she gave her a lot of delicious food.
Later, during that period, her concept of being a "princess" was that she could fill her stomach, wear new clothes, live in a big cage surrounded by red walls, and not see her mother.
Before her mother left, she told her not to cry or make a fuss in the palace, not to miss her, and not to run away on her own. She had to obey her grandmother in everything.
She agreed, but they didn't see each other for more than ten years.
She looked forward to seeing her mother every day and saved money to buy delicious food for her mother.
If the nanny beside her had not felt sorry for her and told her that her mother was actually dead when she was ten years old, she would never have known that her mother was sentenced to death on the day she entered the palace.
But she didn't dare hate her grandmother, the woman everyone respected as the Mother of the Nation.
Because even though she was treated coldly in the palace, at least her grandmother gave her a place to exist.
But she hated her so-called dead father. If he had not brought her into her mother's womb, her mother would not have suffered and would not have died.
She could tell that her grandmother disliked her because of her mother's status.
Identity has been ridiculed for a long time.
They would say she was the child of a prostitute, or even worse, call her a bastard.
Those who dared to do so had their tongues cut off by the Queen Mother.
After hearing about it, Helan Minzhi didn't feel moved by this action. She just felt terrified and shuddered.
So she dared not disobey her grandmother, for she was afraid that one day her tongue would become like theirs.
After entering the palace and becoming a princess, she didn't feel very lucky or that her life was good. She just managed to survive safely.
