A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Qi Huan only knew that Yunxi was brought up by Lady Yun, and that the relationship between the aunt and nephew was very good.

The story in the mansion is that Yunxi's parents died not long after she was born. As an aunt, Mrs. Yun took pity on her and took her by her side. The aunt and nephew depended on each other for life.

Although Miss Yun is only of average level in terms of appearance, she has a stable personality, capable and thoughtful in her work. Even if she is an orphan, it is still very easy to find a reliable person to live with.

But she wanted to take Yunxi with her heart.

Occasionally someone would ask Yang about it, and Yang always said that Lady Yun was afraid that after she got married, her husband's family would dislike Yun Xi and make Yun Xi feel wronged.

People at this time have serious patriarchal thoughts, and Yun Xi is not a man...

Therefore, in the eyes of many people, it is unbelievable that Lady Yun insists on living with the girl's film left by her natal brother.

after all--

Girls cannot continue the incense and carry on the family line.

Raise it casually, and find a husband's family to marry off when you are old, that's the best of benevolence.

There are also people who just like Lady Yun and don't mind her taking Yunxi to live together, but Lady Yun herself insists on refusing.

What she said was that there was no need for others to treat Yun Xi poorly, but if she was alone, if she got married and had children, it would be difficult for her to treat Yun Xi equally in the future.

In a word, she spent her whole life guarding this niece.

Every time someone hit a wall, no one inquired about it in recent years.

Because men marry wives, almost all of them are for the purpose of having children and continuing cigarettes. When a woman is old, who knows if she can still have children. No matter how virtuous and capable a woman is, no one will marry if she cannot have children.

As for those who already have children and want to continue...

They themselves don't meet Miss Yun's requirements. If you think about it with your toes, you know that they must love your children.

When Qi Huan first arrived, the first thing she got to know was the people around her. To be honest, just because of Yun Xi, she had a good impression of Lady Yun.

These days, women who can live lovingly and righteously, calmly, soberly and assertively are very rare.

True——

She had never suspected that there would be something hidden in Yun Xi's life experience.

However, she has been asking all the way to the door of the house, it is impossible for Yang to lie to her.

Aside from Qi Huan's surprise, it took him a while to adjust his mentality.

But soon, she realized that there must be something else hidden here: "Even if they are mother and daughter, that's fine, why would you lie about being aunt and nephew? And..."

Thinking about Yun Xi's temperament that leads to the end, Qi Huan is also very sure: "Yun Xi doesn't know her own background?"

The mother and daughter live together, but they have to hide it from the outside world, and cannot recognize each other openly...

That can only show that Yunxi's life experience is somewhat shameful.

For a while, Qi Huan felt a little complicated.

"Don't blame her for being ruthless, she has no other choice." At this point, Yang has no need to hide it from her, and sighed: "Yun Su was originally surnamed Xun, and she used to be a famous lady in the south of the Yangtze River. Later, she redeemed herself and got rid of her lowly status, but this background can never be erased, and it is for Yun Xi's benefit that Yun Xi and her be called aunt and nephew."

"Aunt Yun..." Qi Huan didn't turn his head around for a moment.

Although she knew that in the selection of oirans in the most high-end entertainment venues in ancient times, the most important thing was not pure beauty, but knowledge, talent, and even manners and wrists...

But because Miss Yun is usually too elegant and dignified, it is difficult for Qi Huan to associate her with those charming and coquettish women for a while.

She originally thought that Yunxi's secrets were at most nothing more than the fact that Lady Yun was deceived by a dog man for money and sex when she was young and ignorant, and at worst it was an unmarried pregnancy.

In this day and age, it is a great shame for a woman to conceive before marriage, which will cause her to be unable to hold her head up for the rest of her life.

"She lost all her relatives when she was six years old, and was sold into the land of fireworks. She has no choice in this kind of background and experience. Fortunately, she is smart and quick to learn everything, and she knows how to read words and expressions, and is well versed in the way of life. Prostitutes are also divided into three, six, and nine grades, and you have to have some skills to avoid being reduced to the lowest dirty place." Yang said.

As a woman, she also sighed when she mentioned Miss Yun's past: "When I met her, she was already in her twenties, and she couldn't survive in that kind of place for a few years. Fortunately, she has a plan of her own, and she has accumulated money over the years. He saved a lot of money, redeemed himself after becoming pregnant, and got rid of his low status."

"Why didn't you rescue her from the fire pit?" Qi Huan was quite surprised by this.

But if Mrs. Yun has the ability to get rid of her lowly status, she should also have the ability to settle down. How could she have traveled thousands of miles to the capital and become a servant at home?
Could it be that he went out of the fire pit and entered the wolf's den again?

Met a scumbag and been cheated by Yunxi's biological father?Then met Yang?

"Your mother is not as capable as you think!" Yang gave her an angry look. Although she was unwilling to talk to her daughter about the darkest things in the world, no one can live forever in illusory beauty. "Your Aunt Yun is still a person with ideas and plans, but even though she has given up all she has in exchange for a free body, a girl with no power or power, it is not easy to find a way out in this vast world? That old bustard is greedy for money On the surface, she promised to let her redeem her body, and took almost all her belongings, but how could she let go of this cash cow? Since she left, they have been sending people to watch secretly, and later, when she was giving birth, they took advantage of the fire to rob her. I want to take the child away, and use the child to threaten her to go back and continue to laugh."

As Mrs. Yang said, her thoughts also returned to the long time in the past, and she said with emotion: "That was already thirteen years ago. I went back to my hometown in Qingming that year to pay homage to your grandmother and uncle, and then returned to Beijing. I happened to encounter this terrible thing on the way. Although I should not be nosy when I am away from home, but at that time I had only had you for two years, and I was a little bit disgusted with the miserable situation of their mother and daughter, so I acted hard and soft, and paid another sum of money for management , Only then did the madam and the others be sent away. But those people were capricious, and Yunsu didn't dare to stay there any longer afterward. She was a lonely woman with no one to rely on, and she was dragging a weak postpartum body and Nursing children have nowhere to go, nowhere to stay, so I can only take their mother and daughter back to the capital."

After that, she simply changed the names of the two of them directly.

The surname Yun is considered a common surname in the Dajin Kingdom, and it can be seen everywhere in the world. The pronunciation of Yun and Xun characters is almost the same, so the Yang family decided to give their mother and daughter the Yun surname, and used Yin Zi to make up a new household registration origin.

Lady Yun was born in a brothel and was despised by the world.

not to mention--

She was still unmarried and pregnant, and the Yunxi she gave birth to, just because she showed her life experience to others, Yunxi would also be criticized and couldn't hold her head up.

Qi Huan didn't know what to say for a moment.

But she quickly discovered the crux of the matter, and asked, "What about Yun Xi's father? Aunt Yun didn't say who he is?"

Yang smiled wryly, raised her hand and wrapped a lock of her daughter's hair behind her ear, shook her head and said softly, "She didn't mention it, and I didn't ask."

Miss Yun got pregnant in that kind of place, and she hid herself to give birth alone. Can the men who go in and out of brothels and Chu halls expect some decent people with noble character and responsibility?
Anyway, he didn't intend to be responsible, and he couldn't be responsible...

That's why Lady Yun never mentioned this person for many years, nor did she count on him.

This hidden story of the past was beyond Qi Huan's expectation, and it took her some time to digest and accept it.

"You will continue to ignore these things in front of Yun Su's mother and daughter from now on, huh?" Yang asked in a gentle voice.

No one wants their painful past to be brought up again and again.

Sometimes, there is no need for much kindness, not mentioning it is the greatest respect and maintenance!
"I know the seriousness." Qi Huan also responded casually without thinking, but then remembered his original intention of inquiring about the past, and regained his expression, "By the way, you just said that Aunt Yun recently met and knew her well. An old friend from the past? Did she say who it was? Did that person threaten her?"

But even an old friend from back then, now, what else can he threaten her with?
Miss Yun didn't marry into a prominent husband's family, and she was afraid of being kicked out of the house if her background was revealed, nor did she become prosperous and rich in one day, so that she could blackmail others for a windfall.

She took a daughter with her and was just working as a helper at home...

If it wasn't that the person who blackmailed her was insane and couldn't see others having a peaceful life, then it might be because of Miss Yun's own heart knot. Because of the low self-esteem of the past, she voluntarily wanted to escape when she saw her old friend?

It was a bit late for the mother and daughter to chat, Qi Huan didn't come out of An Xuetang until about three o'clock.

Afterwards, she just pretended not to know about Miss Yun and Yun Xi.

Two days later, Qi Huan had just returned to Chunyuzhai after breakfast, when Wei Feng from the front yard came over and said, "Miss, our son just sent someone to send a letter saying that he has completed the task you entrusted him to do." The preparations are ready, there will be a good show in front of the Yang family today, are you interested in going to see it for yourself?"

Qi Huan's sluggish mood was immediately lifted, and he was eager to try.

But she finally thought about it, and asked: "Don't use my mother's carriage, you go to the carriage and stable to prepare a new carriage for me, keep a low profile, don't go through the front door, go to the back door and wait for me."

When Wei Feng heard the words, he grinned knowingly: "Our son has the foresight to prepare everything for you. You can come out as soon as you change your clothes."

After speaking, he ran away in a hurry.

Qi Huan came back to his senses, looked in the direction of the courtyard gate where no one was there, just shook his head and smiled, and told Xing Luo: "Since Gu Zhan is here, you and Yun Xi don't have to follow me, I may not be able to make it at noon." When I come back, if my mother sends someone to look for it, tell her that I went out with Gu Zhan."

She turned around and went back to her room to change her clothes, and when she came out, she saw Yun Xi, who was always ignorant of any worries, eating melon seeds and playing with birds on the porch in the yard.

Sensing that Qi Huan was looking at her, Yun Xi blinked and raised her head to look at her, her eyes became crescent moons with a smile: "Miss, where are you and Gu Shizi going for lunch?"

All day long, that's all she thinks about.

Qi Huan glared at her angrily: "No matter where you go to eat, I will pack a portion for you when you come back."

"Thank you, miss." Yun Xi chuckled, with an attitude of contentment in life.

Because Gao's family was having a funeral, although Qi Huan didn't have to wear mourning, when he went out this day, he not only chose to walk in the back alley, but also chose plain clothes, trying not to be ostentatious.

Now in the Qi family, Qi Zhengyu doesn't care about the matter of the eldest son, and the Yu family is ignored by Qi Huan's mother and daughter again. She wants to take care of things, but no matter how much she jumps around, she can't show her elders, and the second wife can't take care of herself...

Therefore, although the eldest daughter of the family sneaked out of the house to meet her fiancé through the back door, which was not in accordance with the rules, the mother-in-law at the back door was very aware of the direction of the house, and took a few copper coins that Qi Huan rewarded them for drinking, They were all cheerful and didn't have the slightest idea of ​​finding someone to sue.

Qi Huan came down the steps with his skirt in his hand, and Gu Zhan's carriage stopped at the door in front of him grandiosely.

Today, he also didn't use the large carriage at home that could show his identity, and chose a plain and inconspicuous one.

He didn't bring any entourage, only Jiang Xuan pretended to be the coachman.

Before Qi Huan came out, Jiang Xuan had already set up the footstool and waited. Qi Huan didn't see Gu Zhan at a glance, but he knew it well, and got into the carriage directly.

The carriage was a little smaller, without any furniture, Gu Zhan just asked someone to spread a thick woolen blanket inside, and sitting in it with his long legs stretched out, he just filled the carriage to the brim.

Seeing Qi Huan get into the car, he patted the seat beside him, and then moved to the side by himself.

Qi Huan crawled over, sat down next to him, and joked with a smile: "How do you know that I will definitely come out, if I don't come, wouldn't your trip be in vain?"

Gu Zhan put his hands behind his head, sat in the car with a loose posture, and responded with a chuckle: "If you don't want to come out, then I will go around the front door and go in to find you. Why did I run away for nothing?"

Even if the two of them get along in private, unless Qi Huan deliberately teases him, he is generally well-behaved and very respectful.

At this moment, the carriage was small, and the two sat side by side. In fact, as long as he stretched out his hand, he would grab him into his arms, but there was no sign of moving.

While speaking, he also turned his head to look at Qi Huan.

For a man of Gu Zhan's age, no matter how young and mature he is, there is always a natural youthful aura about him.

especially--

As long as he relaxes his whole body and mind, those brows and eyes are warm and soft, and those who look at them will feel soft and itchy in their hearts, and they will even be moved unconsciously.

The next moment, Qi Huan followed his body's instinctive wishes and rubbed against him again, clinging to him, with his head resting on his shoulder.

Gu Zhan frowned faintly, and looked sideways at her with downcast eyes.

Qi Huan also seemed to have predicted his reaction, and had already had time to raise his head.

The moment the eyes of the two of them met, she raised the corners of her lips and smiled coquettishly: "You should come to my house more recently. You haven't come here for a while, and my mother has questioned me face to face. Awkward."

In fact, the two of them were indeed having an quarrel, but it was just a quarrel that was tacitly understood by each other!

In fact, ever since Gu Zhan returned to Beijing this time, he has had a knot in his heart, and he is very eager and anxious to know whether Qi Huan has shaken the marriage contract between the two of them after the incident of Gao Changjie.

Every time he saw her, he couldn't help but want to ask her, so that he could settle down and end this suffering.

Can--

I held back again and again.

He is too clear about Qi Huan's character and personality, she can't do the thing of being ungrateful and tearing down bridges, as long as he doesn't ask, it's nothing more than a knot in her heart, so she keeps procrastinating and refusing to nod and get engaged.

In this way, he can still wait, wait for the time to pass, and the lump in her heart will fade away with time until it disappears.

But once he asked in person——

Even though Qi Huan still won't do the thing of retiring with him, but if she admits to him face to face, saying that she minds, that she is worried about this matter, and even painful...

Then he would not know how to face her in the future.

He has been working hard all the time, trying to satisfy her in everything in front of her, because he likes her so much and wants to spend this life with her hand in hand, so he is afraid that she will be shaken, that she will be dissatisfied with him, and even have complain.

So this time, knowing that keeping silent and avoiding talking is the most selfish move...

He still didn't answer.

He just put his arms around Qi Huan's shoulders, telling her to lean on his shoulders to avoid the bumps when driving.

Qi Huan also understands how cautious he is with her at this time, but she can't say against her will that she doesn't mind and has no burden.

So, she also tactfully, as tacitly as Gu Zhan, did not make a sound.

The carriage moved forward steadily, passing through the streets and alleys with ease, and when it stopped outside the alley of Yang Chenglian's house, the entire alley was almost packed.

Jiang Xuan scratched his neck and looked around for a while, then jumped out of the car and opened the door, a little confused: "There are too many people inside, my son, look at this..."

The lively scene in front of the Yang family's gate was extraordinary, and it would be boring if there were fewer people.

Qi Huan glanced over there, and then winked mischievously at Gu Zhan in a good mood: "Anyway, it's just a crowd to watch and join in the fun. If we squeeze into the front row, isn't it good?"

Gu Zhan likes to see the vivid appearance of her eyebrows and eyes. He looked at her, smiled knowingly, rubbed her head and said, "It's just right to be seen by their family, but if it's too high-profile, it will be known to everyone, and others will be surprised." It’s inevitable to have suspicion and speculation, so let’s stay here.”

Qi Huan was not afraid that Yang Chenglian's mother and son would know that she was the one who did this, it would be better if they knew, it would make them suffer and make them angry.

But she didn't want people to pay too much attention to and speculate about her old grievances with this family, so she didn't want to be too blatantly ostentatious.

That is, in the gap between the two talking, the crowd in front of the Yang family's gate was instantly dispersed.

Looking closely, it was a group of servant guards rushing out with big sticks, blasting people out ferociously.

The crowd dispersed a bit, and the farce in front of his house appeared...
