Pull flowers and leave grass

As long as he can remember, his mother has always been by his side, teaching him to read, read and play the piano, until one day he was playing with other children of the same age in the city and found that they all had a father. He went back and asked his mother: " Mother, why do they all have daddies, why don't I have a dad?"

Whenever he asked, Wen Qing always bent down and hugged him into his arms, and gently stroked his head with a pair of clean hands: "Cheng'er is good, your father, he was in Cheng'er before he was born I left Gusu." He struggled to raise his head, and looked at his mother's face, she didn't look at him, but looked out of the window, her eyes were a little lost, and her face looked very lonely.

"Then will he come back? The city is so big, and I haven't seen my dad yet! Doesn't daddy not want Cheng'er?" His immature voice asked warmth like a cannonball.

And the warmth just sighed in a low voice, and said leisurely: "Yes... Daddy... I also miss Chenger..."

It wasn't until he was six years old that he heard about his father from his cousin.

In Gusu seven years ago, Wenqing was only 16 years old, a great time.Although she looks outstanding, but because she was a concubine, her mother died early, so she was not loved by her father in the city.She didn't have much sense of presence among the brothers and sisters of the same age. Only the eldest brother and the youngest sister liked to associate with her, so she often practiced calligraphy and piano in her own yard to become a female celebrity, and rarely stepped on the road. out of his own yard, so that sometimes Gusu City Lord Wen Qiliang often forgot that he had such a daughter. Until that day, Gusu hosted the Sifang Business Alliance every four years...

According to the usual practice, every time the Gusu family has a banquet, the next city lord will select a person to perform for everyone's enjoyment. "Qing'er, look at how long you've been bored at home. You must come out and show your face at this banquet." The warm elder brother Wen Zhi is the next city lord of Gusu City, and he is sitting in the warm courtyard at this time , persuaded earnestly.

"Yes, yes, you said that the two of us often come to see you, listen to you play the piano, and talk with you. You play the piano so well, what's the point of just the two of us listening to it! This banquet is no better than the last one, I heard The newly added leaders of the business alliance in the past few years are all young talents..." The person who spoke was Wen Wan, who was sitting on the stone table with Erlang's legs crossed, the crossed leg dangling back and forth, a little None of them look like a lady.

"There are too many people, it's too noisy, so I won't go." Warmly flicking her hand to play the piano, she slightly opened her cherry-colored lips and spit out a few words.

Knowing that she would say that, Wen Wan quietly gave Wen Zhi a look. Wen Zhi understood, and immediately approached Wen Qing, squatted beside her, and leaned into her ear and said something.The warm face immediately changed, and her lips trembled a few times to look at Wen Wan and Wen Zhi, before blurting out: "You..."

Before she could finish speaking, Wen Wan interrupted her: "What's the matter, you don't come out at home, it's just that you don't have good news, we all know that Dad is going to let you marry far away to Xuzhou, and help him get Xuzhou to Gusu That line. If I knew you would definitely not go, the cripple Xu Can is the only one who is of marriageable age in the Xuzhou alliance... Let me tell you, if you show your face at this banquet, I promise you will There are quite a few handsome men who have taken a fancy to you. Wouldn't it be better if there happens to be a man who can make daddy feel that you don't have to marry far away to Xuzhou, because you can have a good marriage and avoid daddy's arrangements for you."

What Wen Wan said was not unreasonable, she knew what happened in Xuzhou, she had heard her father talk about it earlier, but she didn't expect to use her as a bargaining chip so soon.She absolutely refused, and within a moment, she looked straight at Wen Zhi and said, "Okay."

On the night of the banquet, when Wenqing played a song "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" in the hall and won the praise of the audience, when she took off the veil covering her face under the gaze of her father, when she retreated to the backyard and stared at the scorching water in the pond. When the lotus bloomed, that person approached her quietly.Under the cool moonlight, there are two or three frogs in the pool, and the sound of stepping on dry branches behind him is still clear.She hurriedly turned around and looked into a pair of tender eyes.With just one glance, many years later, when she holds Xiao Liancheng in her arms to admire the moon and lotus by the pond, she can still remember that meeting at the beginning.

His name is Jiang Ruhui, the new commander-in-chief of Gusu City, and the right-hand man of the city lord Wen Qiliang.

Because Wen Qiliang didn't pay much attention to warmth, even if he performed an amazing song at the banquet, he only considered that marrying her to Xuzhou would be overkill.Jiang Ruhui, as the new commander in chief, was in charge of security inside and outside Gusu City. He was originally not allowed to enter the female family's residence in the backyard. Unexpectedly, a valuable item happened to be lost in the lady's residence, so he was allowed to enter and leave the female family's residence.The banquet lasted for a week. During that time, he would always go to Wen Qing's somewhat remote residence, listen to her play the piano and sing poems.As for warmth, when she heard from the maid that he had entered the backyard, she would put the lotus jade cake she made by herself in front of the door in advance, and cover it with a brocade handkerchief with lotus flowers embroidered by her own hands.The maid in her yard saw their actions like this, and often made fun of her, she was not afraid, even if Wen Zhi and Wen Wan knew about it, so what?But not long after, Wen Zhi and Wen Wan brought news that shocked her: her father betrothed the eldest wife's second daughter, Wen Ling, to Jiang Ruhui. After leaving his father, he was ordered to be expelled to the cold north, and he would no longer be able to step out of his residence.

Before Jiang Ruhui left, she sneaked into her residence, and the two of them held hands and cried, and stayed up all night.

Not long after that night, Wen Qing found out that she was pregnant. Fortunately, she didn't see anyone on weekdays. After Wen Zhi succeeded the city lord, she was able to give birth to Liancheng smoothly, and got a license to stay in the city to continue living.But Liancheng didn't know that inside and outside of Gusu, she only treated her as a warm and married woman, but because of her status as a concubine, the etiquette was saved, and her husband passed away not long after marriage, leaving behind a posthumous child.
