"Look, you admit that you don't understand!" Mother Wen sneered, "Then you must not know that your daughter has become a laughing stock in everyone's eyes from the day she appeared in the eyes of the capital, right?"
"The butt of the joke?" Hua Zuo's eyes widened after hearing this, "Why are you laughing at her?"
"Because her makeup is so vulgar and funny!" Wen Ting interjected, "As the general said, every girl is dressed up in a colorful way, but the flowers are different! We are carefully Matching, what kind of shoes, what kind of dress, what kind of accessories to match, all have to be particular! No matter how unscrupulous a peasant girl is, she will never wear a bright red shirt like Yue'er. Paired with big green shoes and a hairpin full of hairpins, it looks like a walking makeup box!"
"This is just clothing!" Mother Wen continued, "There is also women's makeup! A noble daughter from an aristocratic family can put on light makeup, fresh and elegant, or she can put on heavy makeup, bright and generous, but no woman can do it like your daughter. Her face is like a canvas, painted randomly! To put it bluntly, even the women in the low-class brothels can't even paint the flowers like her!"
"How dare you compare Yue'er with that kind of woman!" Hua Zuo couldn't help but jumped again. Mother Wen hurriedly spoke to comfort her, "General, calm down! I don't mean to be contemptuous at all, I just want you to know, Yue'er How outrageous is her makeup! And why has she become the laughing stock in the capital!"
Hua Zou gritted his teeth and said in a rough voice: "You have said so much, what does this have to do with Mr. Liang?"
"Isn't that okay?" Mother Wen rolled her eyes wildly, "Where do you think her makeup comes from?"
"Of course she learned other people's makeup, but she didn't get it right..." Hua Zuo replied naturally. Halfway through, he was interrupted by Xiao Lin's sigh, "General Hua, it turns out that your wife is so stupid. You!"
"Your Highness, is there... anything wrong with this?" Hua Zuo knew that he always didn't like to care about these family affairs, but at this time, he suddenly interrupted. He must have found something wrong.
"A newborn child is just like a piece of white paper..." Xiao Lin said lightly, "Whatever you draw on it will determine what she will look like! The step-mother of the General's Mansion is in charge of the rear house and raising children, why? To support? Why to educate? Nourish her body, educate her mind! As a woman, Hua Wuyue made her debut in the capital, why? Because she is old and it’s time to see each other! If you want your daughter to find a good wife, Her husband's family must do their best to show her best side, promote her excellence and cover up her shame! It is related to a woman's lifelong happiness. Which mother does not go all out and strive for perfection? Only the girl in your family, in such an appearance Like, whose fault is it?" ap.
He had always been a man of few words, but now he said so much in one go. He was really fooled by Hua Zou.
Su Li had already taken care of Hua Wuyue's injury. After hearing this, he sighed and looked down at Hua Wuyue on the bed.
Hua Wuyue had also woken up a long time ago and had been lying there, listening to Hua Zou and Wen's mother bickering, her brows furrowed and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Su Lisheng was afraid of irritating her, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. When he heard Xiao Lin's words, he hesitated to speak, but Hua Wuyue spoke first: "Ali, is my makeup really ugly? "
Su Li nodded: "It's very ugly!"
After a pause, he added: "But you are actually quite good-looking! They keep saying you are ugly, but it's not that you are really ugly, it's your makeup that's ugly!"
"But mother said she looks good..." Hua Wuyue murmured, "Is she lying to me?"
"Yes!" Su Li nodded vigorously, "She is raising you crookedly on purpose!"
Hua Wuyue had obviously never considered this question. Suddenly he received her affirmative answer and became confused again. After a long while, Fang asked again: "Why is she like this?"
"What do you think?" Su Li asked.
Of course Hua Wuyue knows the answer.
Because she heard everything Wen's mother said word for word.
"It's the dowry for my mother..." Hua Wuyue grinned miserably, "But if she wants it, I can give it to her! I've already given her a lot! The jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and ornaments left by my mother, whatever they are, She can take whatever she likes, or her younger brothers and sisters like it! The key to the warehouse is already there with her! I have never stopped her! Those things, a long time ago,
Let her handle it! Why is she still like this? "
"Because she's afraid that your father will know!" Su Li sighed and touched Hua Wuyue's dumbfounded face, "A woman's dowry belongs to an individual's private property, not to mention her step-brother, even your father. Don't misappropriate it at will! If anyone knows about this, it will be a huge scandal and you will be imprisoned! She took advantage of your ignorance and took away many things. If you marry in the future, your father will definitely pay the order. Count the dowry. How can she explain it to your father if she can't take it out? If you don't want to explain it, then you can only think of angering your father and causing a rift between you and your daughter. If Jiang Qingge hadn't disrupted the situation today, we would have been staring at her again. She ruined this matter by mistake, and her plan will succeed! Your father knows that you are like this, so naturally he can't make any fuss about your marriage. When he was angry, in order to prevent your mother's private property from being damaged, he Even if you marry into the Wen family, he won't give you a dowry! If you feel guilty, you won't pursue the matter, so the dowry will surely fall into the hands of your stepmother!"
Hua Wuyue's eyes widened after hearing her long talk, and she was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses.
"This is really... a twist!" She sighed, "I never knew she had so many twists and turns in her heart..."
"Because you have a clear mind and are sincere in your treatment of others, you naturally never imagined that there are such dark and despicable people in the world!" Su Li replied softly, "I didn't know before that I could be like you, foolishly trusting others. Every time someone treats me badly, I always look for the reason in myself, thinking that it’s because I’m bad first that others treat me badly! But in fact, that’s not the case!”
Hua Wuyue understood this time and nodded slowly: "Yes, that's not the case! I have never been hard on her. Although I know she is not my biological mother, my biological mother died young and I have always regarded her as my biological mother. , and she manipulates me everywhere. I just think she is the best mother in the world, but I don’t want to..."
Halfway through her words, she felt a lump in her throat. She covered her face with her hands and remained silent, but tears silently flowed from the corners of her eyes.
"Cry if you want to!" Su Li stuffed a handkerchief into her hand, "Cry hard and you will be more thoughtful in the future!"
Hua Wuyue covered her face with a handkerchief and sobbed softly. She had a carefree temperament and was always careless, but even if she cried now, she didn't dare to cry too loudly.
"Why are you holding back and crying?" Su Li poked her shoulder lightly with his finger, "Cry louder and let your father know how wronged you are!"
"No!" Hua Wuyue shook her head pitifully, "I just committed suicide, and my father's face turned pale with fright. He actually loved me so much. I don't want him to suffer anymore!"
