The girl who wears fast

Chapter 1096 Promoted to a Concubine's Loyal Maid (16)

Zhu Yanli liked Shichu's Baihuaniang very much, and he drank one cup after another without knowing it. When Shichu found out, his face was already flushed, his eyes were blurred, and he knew that he was quite drunk.

After he was drunk, his behavior was very similar to his usual behavior. He was quiet, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he had a very good temper. Daring things to do.

"Zhu Yanli, are you drunk?" Shi Chu looked at the little scholar dumbfounded. This guy drank so much without saying a word, but he still sat upright. If he didn't pay special attention to him, he would never have noticed that he had drunk.

"Du... Mrs. Du... good wine..." When Xiaoxiu heard Shi Chu calling his name, he immediately showed a silly smile to her, and he did not forget to hand the wine glass in front of Shi Chu.

Shi Chu took his wine glass away and said, "I know it's good wine, but you shouldn't drink too much, did you forget that you have to go to the academy tomorrow?"

"Going to the academy? Yes, going to the academy..." He only heard Shi Chu's last two words, and stood up unsteadily, then staggered out again, as if he wanted to really go to the academy.

At this moment, Shi Chu can really be sure that he is drunk and confused. What kind of academy are he going to in the middle of the night?

There is no way, people get drunk only after drinking their own wine, so Shi Chu had no choice but to help the drunk cat back to his own house next door.

Zhu Yanli's house has been to Zhu Yanli's house many times, and he is familiar with his bedroom. Now he is helping him back to the room, laying him down on the bed, taking off his shoes and coat, and serving him again. Bring a basin of water to wash his face and hands.

Like a puppet that can breathe, Zhu Yanli obediently lets Shi Chu play with him, when Shi Chu asks him to raise his hand, he raises his hand; when Shi Chu asks him to close his eyes, he closes them...

"Little Xiucai, you must have been a very well-behaved and sensible child when you were young." Shi Chu couldn't help sighing, he looked like a well-behaved child, he must have been a very obedient and loving child when he was young, right?
It's a pity that he lost his father since he was born, so he can only depend on his mother. Even if his mother wants to love him more, she can't help it, because if she wants to make a living, she can only owe her children.

Shi Chu seemed to be able to see through time and space, a well-behaved, white and tender child of two or three years old, sitting quietly on a small stool, watching his mother bow her head and do embroidery work intently.

"Hey, what a poor fellow." Shi Chu couldn't help pinching his face.

"Mother?" Zhu Yanli suddenly said such a word, still grasping Shi Chu's hand that was pinching Talian, looking at Shi Chu with wet eyes, like an ignorant child calling his mother, so attached.

Shi Chu's heart couldn't help softening a little, and he didn't refute him saying that he was not his mother, so Zhu Yanli called her "Mother" again, and grabbed Shi Chu's hand and gently pasted it on his face. , "Mother, my child misses you very much..."

It turned out that I missed my mother. When I first saw him like this, I felt more and more pitiful for him. He is not yet 20 years old. In later generations, boys of this age, who have just entered college, are still treated as children by their parents and cared for. , but Zhu Yanli's parents have both died, and he has no one to rely on. He has tasted the ups and downs of life, and can only rely on his own efforts to fight for a future.

"Go to sleep, mother is here to watch you." Shi Chu pretended to be the little poor mother, and when she heard her gentle voice, the little pitiful soon relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.

Shi Chu waited for him to fall asleep, and stayed with him by the bed for a while, making sure that he would not be drunk and vomiting, and then left and went back to his home.

Zhu Yanli didn't seem to know that he mistook Shi Chu for his own mother after he was drunk, and when he woke up the next day, he went out of his way to thank Shi Chu for the delicious wine and her patience in taking care of her drunken daughter last night. Own.

Shi Chu waved his hand indifferently, saying that it was a matter of little effort.

Time flies, and the fourth prince's private possession of the gold mine has been investigated, and he and his subordinates have even been implicated in other crimes.

As the fourth prince's confidant, Zhang Qishan naturally couldn't avoid collaborating with the fourth prince, so it was no surprise that after the fourth prince was demoted to common people and imprisoned for life, Zhang Qishan's family was also confiscated and exiled for three thousand miles. In the name of their contribution to the imperial court for the ancestors of the An Ding Hou Mansion, they were given a light sentence, otherwise Zhang Qishan would have been beheaded because of Zhang Qishan's daring to meddle in the prince's struggle and plot against the emperor's other sons.

It's just that the current emperor is not a bloodthirsty tyrant, and the incident with the fourth prince and Zhang Qishan occurred relatively early, before they had time to do too many serious things, so the emperor decided to bypass their Zhang family's life.

It’s just that capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes are inevitable. It’s impossible for Zhang’s family to continue to enjoy the glory and wealth in the capital. sin.

Gui Yunlai was dragged out of the prison by the jailer in a daze. She had been in the prison for more than a month, and now when she first saw too bright light, her eyes hurt, and she couldn't help squinting her eyes.

A month ago, she never expected that her dignified and dignified concubine Hou Shizi would be reduced to a prisoner in a mess. Oh, she is no longer the concubine Shizi. Exiled to a place three thousand miles away...

Gui Yunlai is not a woman without the slightest knowledge. On the contrary, compared to the wife of the great family who stays at home nowadays, she understands the world situation very well, knows what crimes are caused by being exiled, and how hard it will be on the road. How many nightmare difficulties will be waiting for her.

It was precisely because she knew that she couldn't accept that she had fallen to this point. In the past month, she had already questioned Zhang Qishan in prison, knowing that he was the chief culprit who caused the whole family to become prisoners. Gui Yunlai deeply resented Zhang Qishan, and couldn't help but say many vicious and hateful words to him.

Gui Yunlai actually knew that she shouldn't do that. She had already maintained her old style, sharing joys and sorrows with her husband, and waiting for him to make a comeback...

However, no matter how scheming Gui Yunlai was, being ransacked, exiled, and transformed from a proud girl in the sky to a criminal despised by everyone, the blow was too great for her, and she couldn't bear it, so she couldn't help but look for her. The culprit vented his anger.

But Zhang Qishan still loved her. Although he was hated by his beloved wife so much, he didn't blame his wife. Instead, he blamed himself for not doing well enough and hurting the whole family.
