There is a mansion in the beautiful city of Lianghe. The owner of the mansion is the prefect of Lianghe. He has an only daughter named Luokui. He dotes on her in every possible way and has high hopes for her. He has invited local officials since she was a child. Various famous tutors taught her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and now his daughter has grown up to be slim, beautiful and generous. The Lianghe Prefecture's ancestors were originally engaged in business and running the family, and they left a lot of ancestral property. However, in his generation, he chose to take the imperial examination to gain fame. He was able to pass the examination and was promoted to the position of Lianghe Prefecture. In the early stage, he also I once had business dealings with the Yun family. At that time, the Luo family's daughter and Yun Hua, the young master of the Yun family, were about the same age and became friends as soon as they went back and forth. When they grew up, they made a private marriage. And as he was promoted step by step, he finally gave up doing business completely. In his eyes, doing business was the lowest level. How could he marry his precious daughter to a merchant.
Luokui heard that Yunhua's grandma fell ill, and she left the house to go to Yun's house without even thinking about it.
"You're in a panic, where are you going?" Luokui's father shouted sternly.
"Yunhua's grandma is sick! I want to go see her." Luokui said.
"Are you a doctor? What are you looking at? Just stay at home and don't go anywhere!"
"Dad, just let me go and take a look! Maybe I can really be of some help!" Luokui begged, grabbing his father's arm.
"If you say no, you can't! Cui'er, take the young lady back to the house and check it out. You're not allowed to go anywhere. If the young lady goes out, I'll break your legs! Did you hear that?" Kui's father threatened the maid Cui'er.
Cui'er said tremblingly: "Yes!"
"Dad, how could you do this! I'll just go out and take a look, okay? Promise not to stay at Yun's house too long!" Luokui continued to beg.
Kui's father ignored her and left without mercy. Cui'er on the side comforted her: "Miss, let's go back! If you go out, I will really break my legs. Besides, even if you go, There's nothing you can do to help, and we don't know how to treat you!"
Luokui said angrily: "I think you are frightened by your father!"
"Miss, do you still want to go?"
"I'm not going!" Her father will definitely keep his word. Previously, when she secretly went out on a date with Yun Hua, Cui'er was implicated and was beaten all over by her father. Although she was a little angry, she couldn't really let Tweety take the blame. If her father really broke Tweety's legs, he would probably have uneasy conscience for the rest of his life.
"Cui'er, if I don't go out, why don't you go to Yun's house for me to see how the old lady is doing now?" Luo Kui stayed in the house and was really restless. With something like this happening in Yun's house, Yun Hua must be very anxious. , now is the time when he needs someone to accompany him, and she can't leave yet.
Cui'er said: "Miss, Master asked me to watch you. If I go out and get caught, wouldn't it be the same as if you go out and get caught?" She whispered again, "You're fine, my legs will be fine by then." No guarantee."
Luokui thought for a moment and said, "Let A Ming go!"
Cui'er hesitated: "Is this... okay?"
Luokui said: "It will definitely work. Just ask A Ming to go out and find out about the current situation of the Yun family. If you go secretly, you won't be discovered by dad."
Cui'er said reluctantly: "Okay, I'll try. Miss, you can't go anywhere!"
Luokui said: "Okay, I'm not going anywhere."
A Ming is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old male servant from the Luo family. He is a loyal and honest person. When there was a famine in his hometown, A Ming wandered here and wanted to sell himself as a servant to a wealthy family. Others thought he was a loser and had no use in buying him. Later, Luokui discovered that he was really pitiful on the street, so Luokui teased his father hard and finally agreed to let Amin stay.
As soon as A Ming heard that the young lady asked him for help, he was naturally obligated. Not to mention this small favor, he would dare to go up mountains of swords and seas of fire.
"Cui'er, how's Grandma Yunhua doing?" Luokui asked urgently.
"A Ming came back and said... the old woman seems to be dying!" Cui'er said.
"What? I want to go out!" Luo Kui stood up and wanted to go out.
Cui'er stepped forward to stop Luokui, "Miss, you must not go out! What will I do if you want to go out! Master will kill me, and you don't know my temper. Miss, how about we don't go out?" ! I can’t help you much if I go!"
Luokui saw Cuier kneeling on the ground crying and begging her. She really...had no choice. "Twee'er, please get up quickly!" She finally compromised when she saw Twee'er crying and refusing to get up.
"Okay, you get up first. I won't go to Yun's house for now, and I'll think of a solution later." When she heard her lady relaxed, she slowly got up wiping her nose and tears.
Luokui thought that her father would keep her at home and not let her go out to see Yunhua, so she would go on a hunger strike to see who could restrain whom. When Luokui went on a hunger strike, she never expected that his father would not agree with her.
Luo's father said: "If you don't eat, you won't be hungry, so just stay hungry!"
Luokui said angrily: "Daddy doesn't care about my daughter so much? Mother would definitely care about me if she were here. I don't want you to not care about me like this."
Luo's father said: "Don't use your mother to pressure me. You have to understand that doing this for your father is for your own good. I don't want you to walk the same path your father has walked. Workers, farmers and merchants are the cheapest! Think about it. How did your mother pass away? Would her spirit in heaven allow you to marry a merchant boy? Think carefully about what I said."
Luokui Zhiqi said: "I...I believe my mother will want me to be happy!"
Luo's father said again: "You will be happy if you marry that boy Yunhua. How can you be happy if you are not from the right family? I hate that I was born in a merchant's family and will never be able to hold my head high. Your mother was born in an official's family and her status is noble. You were born with a proud heart, but you were blinded by love and married me, and then you were criticized every day. In the end, you couldn't resist the rumors and ended up depressed, and how could I let you follow in our footsteps?"
Luokui said nothing, she only felt that she liked Yunhua and Yunhua liked her, and that was enough. As for the future... As long as Yunhua lives up to her, she will never leave him.
The next day, Luokui's father ordered someone to prepare an easy-to-digest breakfast for Luokui early. When Luokui woke up, he saw Cui'er coming to her with porridge and a few side dishes.
"The master still loves the young lady very much. He ordered someone to make breakfast for the young lady early. He knew that the young lady would not be able to hold on after two hungry meals!" Cui'er said with a smile.
"Alas~ It won't work to drive here hungry. This method is really not good. Let me fill my stomach and then think of other methods!"
One day, two days, three days... just passed like this. The only way Luokui could think of was to ask A Ming to help her inquire about news. Later she learned that Yunhua was going to a distant place to help his grandmother. She asked for a cure, but she couldn't put it into practice for him. She could only pray for him silently at home, hoping that he would achieve something and return home.
After a while, Luokui's father saw that Luokui was keeping her peace, and thought that she might have listened to what he said, so he opened her mouth to release her, but the prerequisite was that she could not see Yunhua again, and once discovered, she would not be allowed to leave the house again.
"Daddy, can I really go out? Don't you care about me?" Luokui asked in surprise.
"Yes, but you are not allowed to go to Yun's house or see Yun Hua. Do you understand? You know the consequences."
"Okay, I understand, daddy." Luokui agreed readily.
Luokui was very happy to finally be able to go out. In her first year, she went to see Yunhua and visit Yunhua's grandmother. But she knew that scheming could not eat hot tofu, and her father would definitely have to test her. Sure enough, she found someone following behind her, who was his gardener. So she asked Cui'er to go shopping for a whole day, deliberately walking through the streets and alleys until she was tired and followed them secretly.
The next day, after the gardener reported the situation to Luokui's father, she moved Cui'er back as well before going to Yun Mansion with peace of mind.
