When the guests left, the Zhao family's yard suddenly became quiet.
This means that Zhao Yanping is coming in soon.
Gillian sat on the bed, her hands and legs shaking nervously.
Those women all talked about her being a sister from the kiln. Even if she was innocent, she should have seen men and was well versed in the wind and moon. However, Gillian actually only learned talents such as poetry, songs, music and dance. It is true that she lived in Huayue Tower. Gillian heard all kinds of jokes late at night, which are the so-called obscene words and sluts, but she really never saw anything.
The madam was preparing for her opening. During the night of her budding, she mentioned to Gillian that the guests liked virginity and spent a lot of money to buy her the first night to see her the most awkward and most pleasing reaction. If she acted like a veteran, the guests would be disappointed. The madam also said that she would teach her the real secret technique of the room after she had bloomed.
Therefore, Gillian has no experience in serving men.
Gillian pulled her hands and stared at the door nervously. Cui Niang took the door Xu with her when she left. The person who came had to push it open with just a light push.
I don’t know how long it took, the motionless door panel was suddenly pushed away by a pair of big hands!
Jiao's heart was beating and she lowered her eyes in panic.
Zhao Yanping pushed open the door and saw Jiao sitting on the bed gently swaying her hands. She had powder on her face, showing an abnormal whiteness.
Zhao Yanping remembers that she looked like she had no makeup on her face, and her skin was much more pleasing to the eye than she is now with a layer of powder.
After closing the door, Zhao Yanping walked to the bed and handed her the towel that was twisted into three points in his hand: "Wipe your face."
He was burly and stood in front of her like a mountain with a strong smell of alcohol. His voice was low and majestic, making people unable to control his desire to obey him.
Gillian stood up and took the towel while thanking her.
This east room is quite spacious. One of Gillian's betrothal gifts was already arranged next to the wardrobe in the west. When Gillian saw Zhao Yanping go to the table to pour tea, she quickly walked to the dressing table, and did not sit. She bent down and wiped her face in front of the mirror, rubbing the thick layer of powder down, revealing her original white and tender face.
Her lips were also painted red by the combing woman, but she was more beautiful than A Jiao's natural lips and tongue. The towel was wandering around the corner of her mouth. A Jiao thought about it and still didn't remove her lip makeup. I heard that some men like to eat women's mouth fat. Tonight she tried the official's hobby first. If the official is not happy, she would not apply this thing in the future, and she could save money on buying the official's fat.
Gillian was very glad to marry an official who had saved his life. She also wanted to get his likes. The official liked her and Gillian would have a better life in the Zhao family.
After wiping his face, he looked at the towel in his hand, and Gillian looked sideways at the window.
Zhao Yanping did not stare at her to remove her makeup, but when A Jiao looked over, Zhao Yanping looked at A Jiao as if she could sense it, and ordered without any expression: "Take it to the front yard and hand it over to Cui Niang. You have been sitting in the room for so long and want to go to the toilet together, and you will go to bed when you come back."
Gillian blushed, and she really said that she had made the call. She really needed to go to the toilet.
The two of them were talking in the room, but the old lady Zhao who was eavesdropping was shocked. Fortunately, my grandson asked Ah Jiao to go to the front yard. If she came to the back yard to wash towels, she would have to hide in another place. This shock made Mrs Zhao sweat all over. However, thinking of her grandson's indifferent tone, Mrs. Zhao frowned again, and she would relax and wait for Ah Jiao to come back to continue listening.
The Cui Niang and sister in the front yard have only half cleaned up, and there are ten tables and chairs, and they have to wash dishes after being left. Some of the brothers and sisters are busy.
But it was a happy event for the official to take concubines, and the brother and sister were very happy.
Ajiao handed the scarf to Cuiniang. Guo Xing saw Ajiao for the first time and his eyes were straightened.
"What are you looking at? Be careful that the old lady twists your ears!" Cui Niang blocked her brother and threatened in a low voice.
Guo Xing touched his ears and took photos of Mrs. Zhao's majesty. He was concentrating on his work and envied the official in his heart. Such a beautiful little lady could never dream of him.
Gillian was delaying outside for a while, washed his hands before coming back. When he entered the door, he saw that Zhao Yanping had already lie down, his figure was hidden in the white gauze tent. He was wearing a brand new robe hanging on the hanger, and there was a scabbard next to the hanger. Gillian tightened her heart and was very scared.
A Jiao remembered his order and put the door bolt in. In addition to the oil lamp, a pair of red candles with a sharp finger were lit on the table. It was much thinner and shorter than the candle used for formal marriage. A Jiao stared at the red candle used for the concubine for a while, then walked over and blew out the oil lamp.
The red candle was small, and the light was dim. Gillian looked at the gauze tent, lowered her head and was about to untie the wedding dress outside, but suddenly a voice came from the tent: "Come in."
It's still a majestic voice.
Jiao's heart was pounding. Could it be that the official wanted to take off her wedding dress with his own hands?
Gillian didn't know how she walked to the bed. She opened the gauze tent in panic. Before she could see the person inside clearly, a big hand suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her in directly!
Jiao exclaimed, but her man did not fall on the bed. Her shoulders were firmly held by her big hands. Then, he gently flipped her over and placed her flat on the bed.
Through the faint candlelight, Gillian saw a solemn face and a pair of cold eyes.
Zhao Yanping stood above her head and lowered his voice: "The old lady is listening to the corner outside, and you and I will lie to her first."
Because of his posture, Gillian's whole body was stiff and she hadn't understood what he meant, Zhao Yanping asked her again: "When you were in Huayue Tower, have you heard the woman next to her call the bed?"
Gillian only felt a fire burning from her ears to her whole body. Of course she had heard it, and she listened almost every night.
Jiao nodded in a complicated mood.
Zhao Yanping immediately said, "You call out a few times first and coax the old lady away."
How can Gillian be called out?
Zhao Yanping saw her embarrassment and explained: "If you don't call, the old lady will stay outside for one night."
At this point, Gillian finally understood a little bit. The official shouldn't touch her tonight, and the old lady wanted another result.
Jiao's heart was cold. Could it be that Mrs. Zhao was devoted to her and the official actually didn't want her?
All kinds of thoughts popped up in my mind and fell down. The official above my head was still waiting for her to cooperate. Gillian turned her head, covered her face with one hand, and imitated the brothel prostitutes and shouted: "Official, official."
The sound of the weak mosquitoes was so close that Zhao Yanping could not hear clearly. How could the old lady hear it through a wall?
"Speak louder." He reminded her.
Gillian bit her lip and let go of her voice slightly.
"Official, please don't worry."
"Prince, be gentle, you hurt me."
"Official..."
Gillian was so blushed that she was about to drip bleeding, but Zhao Yanping didn't stop, and she could only keep tears in her eyes and continue to learn from those prostitutes who tried to please men. She thought to herself that the official asked her to imitate, and she had no choice but to do it, but would the official think that she had really made such a sound? Could it be that she didn't want to touch her because she disliked her?
Gillian felt uncomfortable. She thought that she could live a comfortable life by coming to the Zhao family and serving the officials in detail. Unexpectedly, things were completely different from what she thought.
Grievance and wandering spread like a spring. Gillian gradually couldn't control her emotions, stopped screaming, and slung on the pillow and started to whimper.
Under the wall, Mrs. Zhao was surprised that her grandson, who had been unwilling to marry for many years, actually got her concubine on the first night and felt that it was not true enough. Until Gillian was tortured by her grandson, the suspicion that the old lady was hanging in her heart finally disappeared, her eyes were smiling, and after listening for a while, Mrs. Zhao walked away with satisfaction and went back to sleep!
There was a slight sound of opening and closing the door outside. Knowing that the old lady was going to sleep, Zhao Yanping finally moved to Ah Jiao. Grandma had dealt with it, but looking at Ah Jiao who was lying there and crying sadly, Zhao Yanping frowned and asked in a low voice: "Are you crying because you were arranged by your uncle and aunt to be a concubine for me, or because I didn't touch you?"
Gillian heard it clearly and stopped crying, but her little face was still hiding in the pillow with sadness, and she choked and said, "With my identity as such, it is a blessing to marry an official. I can't even be grateful, so why are you dissatisfied?"
Zhao Yanping understood that she cried because she was neglected by him.
Zhao Yanpingyuan didn't want to hide it from her, so he went to the bed to get a clean towel and stuffed it into her hand and said, "Don't cry first, listen to my explanation."
Gillian twitched twice, grabbed the veil and covered her face, sat up slowly, and sat in front of him with her head down.
Zhao Yanping felt so wronged that a hint of self-blame in his heart, but he had his vow to keep it.
"You may not have heard of my family's situation. When I was seven years old, my widowed mother remarried Shen Yuanwai, who was enough to be her father in the village to support me and my sister Xiangyun."
Gillian stopped crying and raised her head in surprise.
Zhao Yanping's face was blurred in the night: "When I was nine years old, my uncle couldn't afford to repay the debt. When the old lady took me to the market, she cruelly sold Xiangyun to a kidnapped, and her whereabouts are still unknown."
He said a few words, Gujing Wubo seemed to be talking about other people's affairs, but Jiao felt sad and she burst into tears again. Jiao was sold by her relatives, and she might not be able to empathize with the official's mother, but she could imagine the fate of the Zhao girl. If she had a better life, she would be sold as a maid. If she had a bad life, she would fall into a brothel. But even if she was a maid, she would be beaten, bully or even **, she would be afraid that she would not have a good ending.
The life of the Zhao girl is even worse than hers.
There is also an official who has suffered the pain of separation from his closest relatives at a young age. He lost his mother and sister even though he lost her. No wonder he was so cold.
"I don't want my mother to remarry. I would rather go to a wealthy family now, just because I am a man and want to continue the family line. The old lady would not allow me to go, so I would rather persuade my mother to remarry. Because I am a man, although Xiangyun also wants to go to the market, the old lady only takes me to secretly buy candy for me and leaves Xiangyun alone to guard the house."
Gillian heard his self-blame and said with a heartache: "It has nothing to do with you, it's the world, and poor people suffer."
Zhao Yanping chuckled and looked at her and said, "But I can't forgive myself. I have sworn in front of the Bodhisattva, Xiangyun is alive, I want to see her people, Xiangyun is dead, I want to see her corpse. If I can't find her in one day, I will never get married."
Gillian was stunned. It was because of this reason that he refused to get married?
She had tears on her face, and she was also a pitiful person. Zhao Yanping showed guilt and said, "You and I have nothing to do with you, because I have not married for a long time. The outside talked about my hidden illness. In order to clarify the rumors, the old lady asked me to take you as a concubine. That night you wanted to go out to seek death, but I happened to meet you. Later, your aunt embarrassed you again. I was afraid that you would find a short-sighted view again, so I thought about it and agreed to my grandmother."
Gillian lowered her head and stuttered: "Actually you don't have to. I, I've long been trying to get started and will not do stupid things anymore."
Zhao Yanping said unexpectedly: "Is that so, then I'm not trying to delay you in one go?"
Gillian quickly waved her hand: "No, not, I live like a year at my uncle's house. Even if the official does not want me to be a concubine, I am happy to be a maid to serve the official and repay your life-saving grace."
Zhao Yanping said: "The matter of Huayuelou is just a simple task, and you don't have to worry about it. Now you are already the Zhao family's concubine. Sending you back will only harm you. You still have to let you stay in the Zhao family and accompany me to fool the old lady. But don't worry, I will find a suitable candidate for you, and one day I will find a beloved person who truly pity you."
Gillian didn't think he could find any good man. If there was really, then the good man would be him Zhao Yanping, such a kind-hearted and kind-hearted brother. If she could enter his heart, even if she was a concubine, he would be nice to her.
Gillian really wanted to say that she just wanted to be his person.
