"Of course I want to!" My brother went to Beijing to take the exam every year. When he came back, he often told her how rich and prosperous the capital was and how beautiful life in Beijing was. The innocent and young girls would naturally be fascinated. "So brother, you must not give up. My parents and I are waiting for that day!"

The sea breeze blew against the wind, and the ups and downs were brought to him layer by layer. Instead, he smiled, stretched out his hand to his sister, and gently helped her to pull the broken hairs splattered by the wind behind her ears.

That day, he understood his sister's thoughts in the wind and the sound of the waves. Perhaps because he was infected by him, her sister became more and more yearning for the vast and prosperous world outside the fishing village.

He knew very well that the hearts of their brothers and sisters were always free and unrestrained, and they all wanted to fly higher and farther, and they didn't want to be buried here for the rest of their lives.

But they didn't understand at that time, and being too ambitious was sometimes not a good thing.

One day in early spring, my sister and her parents went to the county town to sell fish and told him that many palace servants were being relocated for the royal family, and she had signed up and would go to the county yamen to meet with other selected girls in a few days, and someone would take them to the capital.

"Sister, do you want to go to the palace to be a palace maid?" Du Li immediately grabbed her nervously, "Why did you suddenly make such a decision?"

But she was extremely excited: "Don't the prince think this is great? I have a monthly salary when I enter the palace. I heard that I control food and accommodation in the palace. If I am happy when I meet my master, I just give it a reward. I can earn more money for my family and save money for my prince to go to Beijing as a means of money. I don't have to borrow it from my fellow villagers and neighbors every time!"

After hearing what his sister said, Du Li felt very uncomfortable. After all, she was useless and always failed the exam, which made her parents and sister suffer.

"And I can't wait to see what the capital is like when the prince is talking about!" My sister was full of expectations for this matter and thought everything was very beautiful. "When the prince was studying outside the palace to prepare for the exam, I would pray day and night in the palace, waiting for the good news for the prince!"

He was silent for a long time, afraid that this time he would let down his sister's expectations again.

The day before leaving her hometown, my sister personally cooked a table of dishes, including fish and meat. In terms of their family background, it was already considered a delicacy. The reason why she spent so much was that once she entered the palace, the palace servants would serve in the deep palace all year round and would not be repatriated to the hometown until they were old. In the future, it would be difficult for brothers and sisters to have such an opportunity to sit together for dinner, so she must have her brother taste her skills.

He felt very reluctant to leave, but the delicious food made him difficult to swallow, but for his sister, he still pretended to be happy and ate with relish in front of her.

Halfway through the meal, the sister suddenly said in disappointment: "Brother, the person who selected me asked me for my name that day, but I couldn't say it... I didn't expect that when I entered the palace, they would just call me casually, so brother, please give me a nice name, okay?"

Du Li was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that since the girl in the village was born, she usually would not give her a name. At most, parents could think of a simple name for her to use for her to call her on weekdays.

He stopped the bowls and chopsticks, thought carefully for a moment, and then read a poem: "Zhuang Sheng was confused by the butterfly in the morning, and Wangdi's spring heart entrusted the cuckoo to the cuckoo"... Is the sister called 'cuckoo'?"

"Dujuan?" Her eyes shone in her eyes, "What does that mean?"

He said: "It's a flower and a bird."

She was curious: "What do they look like? Have you seen it?"

He was quite embarrassed and smiled and lowered his head. "The legend of azaleas and birds is only found in Shu, and I have never seen them, but what is described in the book should be very beautiful." Speaking of this, he added, "It's as beautiful as my sister."

She was very happy after hearing this, and her face was filled with joy: "It's better that the prince is knowledgeable! Then my name is Dujuan!"
