Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 34 Purpose
Chen Ruzhu looked at the two of them with a frown. You said something, I said something, and finally couldn't help but said: "They are all sisters, what are they doing! What's so good about entering the royal family, it's better to lose the election and be matched with a good family. They are all scattered, go back earlier rest."

Chen Ruyu didn't move, she just looked at Mao Tongtong with a mocking smile in her eyes.Not to be outdone, Mao Tongtong smiled lightly and said, "Okay, it's up to you to be selected into the royal family!"

She sneered in her heart, Chen Ruyu really didn't know what to do, she was very ambitious.Don't talk about the prince's backyard, but talk about the royal family. Does this mean you want to enter the harem?
That's right, Kangxi is still in his prime at this time, and there are still more than 20 years of emperors to sit on!If she enters the palace and is favored and has a son, wouldn't it be more ambitious?

But she didn't want to think about it, when her son grows up, these princes in front will be like wolves and tigers, how can they compete!

"It's a deal!" Chen Ruyu said word by word, then turned and went back to her room.

Chen Ruzhu wanted to stop her or not, so she had to look at Mao Tongtong and said, "What's the matter with the third sister? They are all sisters of my own family, so what's the use of being so tit-for-tat!"

"Elder Sister, who is the tit for tat? I respect you, but I don't want to wrong myself because of it." Mao Tongtong said seriously.

Chen Ruzhu's expression froze, but he couldn't speak.

"Sister, it's hard to pretend to be kind. Don't worry about it." Mao Tongtong persuaded, and also took the lotus back to her room.

Only Chen Ruzhu and her maid were left in the yard. Seeing figures appearing in the two rooms on the left and right at almost the same time, she could only sigh and walked back to her room with a little heavy footsteps.

"Girl, why are you so sure that the second girl will lose the election?" He Hua asked puzzled.

Although she is her own girl's personal maid, she has to admit that the second girl is really good looking.Willow leaf eyebrows, phoenix eyes, small cherry mouth, and slender waist, at first glance, they are the kind that men like.Although the royal family has no shortage of beauties, it is very possible for someone like the second girl to be sent to the prince's backyard to be a princess.

Mao Tongtong glanced at her with a smile, and said, "Who told you that I am sure she will lose the election?"

"If not, how about a bet?" Lotus became more and more confused.My own girl is determined to lose the election. If the second girl is selected, won't she lose?That is the ceremony of prostration!

"What bet?" Mother Wu asked.

Mao Tongtong stuck out his tongue and told what happened just now.

"The girl is messing around too! What if I really lose?" Mama Wu frowned.

Mao Tongtong smiled and said: "So what if I really want to lose? She entered the palace directly, but I have to go back to Yangzhou! Maybe I will never see you again in this life, so why do I need to bow down? To be a prince or princess The emperor's concubines don't need to be hired by three mediators, they are sent over directly. They don't even have a chance to go home!"

It turned out that this was her idea, both He Hua and Nanny Wu were stunned.

"Then what's the point of this bet?" He Hua couldn't help asking.

"With a bet, she will study hard in her heart, thinking that she is better than me in every way, so naturally she won't have so many thoughts to find fault with me every day." Mao Tongtong said.

This is her real purpose.Although she was not afraid of Chen Ruyu's petty tricks, it was really exhausting to fight wits with such a person all day long.So it's better to solve it once and let yourself be quieter.

"Girl, if you win, the second girl doesn't have to fulfill the bet." He Hua thought for a while.

"Bah, bah, bah!" Mao Tongtong spat three times, "You crow's mouth, I don't want to win! Remember, your girl, I still want to go back to Yangzhou next year! This bustling capital is not attractive to me!"

"Yes yes yes!" He Hua nodded again and again, followed by three poohs.

Nanny Wu and Tao Hua looked amused, and said, "Young lady, don't worry, it's not easy to be selected, but it's much easier to lose. When the nobles in the palace look at each other, it's good that you deliberately behave poorly."

"Nurse, you know me best!" Mao Tongtong laughed and said, "That's what I think. Er Niang said that after two rounds it will be fine."

The master and servant talked about it for a while, and Mao Tongtong felt tired.Let the lotus and peach blossoms wait for her to freshen up.

For several days in a row, from morning to night, it was completely incomparable with her laziness at home, so it was a bit overwhelming.

It's just that the body is so tired that I can't fall asleep.She opened her eyes, thinking of Mrs. Chen again.At that time, it was agreed to send Chen Shili away, and a letter would be delivered upon boarding the boat.It's been almost five days, why is there no news?Will something happen?

When she thought that Mrs. Chen returned to Yangzhou alone this time, with a maid serving her personally by her side, she felt even more regretful.No matter what, the lotus or peach blossom should go back with one.

Today, there was peach blossom vigil in the outside room. Hearing Mao Tongtong tossing and turning on the bed, he asked in a low voice, "Miss, haven't you slept yet?"

"Taohua, I can't sleep." Mao Tongtong simply sat up and lifted the curtain.

"Is there something wrong with the girl?" Tao Hua asked nervously.

Mao Tongtong shook his head, and said sadly: "I miss my mother."

Tao Hua was taken aback, seeing her girl laughing and laughing every day, she thought she wasn't worried at all.Who knew that in the dead of night, she would show such a fragile appearance.

"It's the first time for the girl to leave home, so it's normal to think about my wife." Tao Hua comforted her.

"Taohua, do you miss home?" Mao Tongtong asked suddenly.

As far as Mao Tongtong knew, both peach blossoms and lotus flowers were bought from Ren Yazi by Chen Shihua.Since entering Mao's mansion, he has been serving her by her side.At least, during the more than three years since she came to the Qing Dynasty, the two never went home to visit.

A trace of confusion flashed in Taohua's eyes, and after a while, she smiled bitterly and said, "Girl, I don't even remember where my home is."

"What's going on?" Mao Tongtong was startled.

"I heard from the prostitute who sold me that she rescued me from the foot of the mountain. I was unconscious at that time, and it took her a few copper coins to get the medicine. If I didn't look upright, she wouldn't even bother to save me. When I wake up, I don’t remember the past. I don’t know where my home is, if I have parents, and I don’t know my name.” When Tao Hua said this, her eyes were red.

Mao Tongtong already regretted it in his heart, but he didn't expect Taohua to have such a life experience, so he hurriedly said: "Sorry, I didn't expect to bring up your sadness. Taohua, please stop talking about it."

Taohua smiled at Mao Tongtong, and said: "Your servant is fine, you don't have to worry. The servant is glad that she doesn't remember anything. After entering Mao's mansion, Madam treated the servants very well, and she was able to serve the girl by her side. It is the blessing of the slave. I have nothing to think about leaving behind the injured family members who I don't care about. It may be a good thing to leave."
