Before Li Shu came back, Li Zhen felt that she was the happiest girl. When she was young, she lived with her parents in her maternal grandfather's home in Nanjing. Her maternal grandfather's family was afraid that she would feel that living as a guest would make her feel like a stranger, so they treated her with a hundredfold favor.
Her parents only have one daughter, and they always respond to her requests.
In fact, the relationship between her parents is not very good, but her father is still willing to maintain a relationship with her mother for her sake. Even if she wants to go out to watch the lanterns, her father will take her out without saying anything.
Even my mother complained to my father: "I think Zhen'er just wants the stars and the moon, and you will go up to the sky to pick them for her."
"Who let me have only one precious daughter, Zhen'er?" Dad said nonchalantly.
Li Zhen clearly saw her mother's expression change.
Soon the second uncle's family came back. She was originally very favored by her grandmother, but that day her grandmother hugged the little baby in the second room and wouldn't let go. Her voice was a little louder, and her grandmother scolded her for the first time.
"Fifth girl, please stop messing with Brother Rui."
This Liu Shurui is the child of the second wife, who has two aunts, and Lizhen doesn't know how to call them. It can be seen that the younger second aunt, because of her son, can actually sit next to her grandmother and her daughter.
I don't know why, Li Zhen didn't like her very much from the first sight.
Li Zhen's own hair is sparse and her skin is slightly yellowish, but Li Shu's hair is as black and shiny as silk, her skin is fair, and she is a well-spoken person. When Lian Niang mentioned her, she said, "I heard how old that third girl is. She can memorize poems smoothly and perform good manners. No wonder the old lady wants to keep her under her knees."
"You can tell that the third girl is a beauty at such a young age. She is very scheming at such a young age. The slave girl really noticed that originally it was a first-come, first-served basis, and Mrs. Fu came first, but she knew how to help her mother grab a seat at such a young age. What's more important is that Mrs. Fu said that her daughter was a lucky baby. After she got pregnant, she originally loved spicy food, so she thought she was pregnant with a girl. But the third girl always gave her sour plums to eat. , as if the transformation of the child in her belly from a daughter to a boy was all due to the third girl."
Li Zhen heard her mother say: "It's true, mother and daughter both know how to help each other. I'm not so lucky..."
Not being able to give birth to a younger brother had always been her mother's regret, and Li Zhen, at such a young age, knew it very well. She didn't know why, but when she thought of Li Shu, she was just worried. If they didn't come back, there wouldn't be so many things at all. No one would think that her mother couldn't give birth to a younger brother.
In addition, Li Shu also likes to show off. Her father bought her a piece of jade cicada, which she hung on her chest, deliberately making her other cousins who did not have the envy of her.
Among the sisters in the Liu family, her favorite was Lijia. Sister Lijia never fought against others, but instead taught her many things. For example, when parents quarrel, Sister Lijia will tell her: "It is inconvenient for us as the younger generation to participate in the adults' affairs. We are still too young, and we only have a partial understanding of some things and do not understand the meaning. If you are well-behaved Some, uncle knows that aunt has taught you so well, he will definitely like you."
"No matter what I look like, my father will like me." Li Zhen felt that this was her confidence.
Sister Lijia smiled and said nothing, and taught her how to do needlework. She was indeed very patient. In fact, she embroidered most of the purses she made. She only traced them a few times. When she gave them to her father, he kept praising her. She is sensible.
therefore
, she was even more convinced of Lijia. Among so many sisters, only the eldest sister Lijia was the kindest.
Just like when Lishu was the class principal, she had not finished her homework and Lishu insisted on writing down her name, so Sister Lijia interceded for her.
"Lishu, forget it. Lizhen is still young, so why do you have to do this? Sir, you won't really check her. Besides, we are all sisters."
Who knew that Li Shu said: "I spared her today, but who spared me? Just do what you have to do. Give her a lesson, and she will know how to complete what she should do in the future."
Sister Lijia still persisted: "Lishu, is it really unreasonable for you to do this?"
Hearing this, Li Zhen was very moved. She thought Li Shu would listen to Li Jia's words, but she didn't know that Li Shu actually said: "You are a thief of virtue, big sister, I only do what I should do. If you don't want me to My sister is being punished, so you can tell your husband the same thing later, don’t just embarrass me!"
In this case, Sister Lijia had no choice but to say to herself: "Fifth sister, I can't help you."
Li Zhen felt that Li Shu was against her, so she was beaten for the first time and screamed. Why are there such bad people in this world?
She was beaten, and Li Shu didn't show any sign. Instead, Li Jia and Li Rou came to see her.
Of course Li Zhen also expressed her dissatisfaction with Li Shu, but she also found that Li Shu seemed to be isolated because of this incident. The sisters all thought she was cruel and didn't like playing with her.
This was very useful to Li Zhen. She always felt that Li Shu was not the same person as her, and she also liked to stand out and always wanted to be the best in front of others. By some mistake, she cut the strings on which Li Shu was going to perform.
This was probably her biggest revenge on Lishu. She let her husband hit her a few times, but what if he just cut her strings and dampened her spirit?
Little did they know that Lishu would soon come back with a revenge. She deliberately threw pots with herself so that she kept losing, which made it difficult for her to communicate.
Even her mother said that Lishu was too young and had too many thoughts and was too poisonous.
That's it, these are all trivial matters. She vaguely felt that her grandmother was very kind to Li Shu. She understood the reason because Li Shu was so good-looking. Moreover, although the second uncle had so many children, she was very kind to Lishu, unlike her father, who was very kind to her when she was a child, but later became very average.
I especially remember that not long after my second uncle came back from overseas, Lishu’s feet sprained. His second uncle was carrying her up and down, looking very anxious.
Lishu also acted coquettishly with her second uncle: "Daddy, I'm old now, you can't carry me on your back anymore."
"You are only a few years old. Dad will ask the doctor to come over later to set your bones. If it hurts, just bite dad's hand, okay?" The second uncle looked at Li Shu dotingly.
Lishu should be well-behaved.
This scene hurt Li Zhen's eyes, but she didn't expect that something even more exciting would happen to her later.
It was my mother who first proposed the idea of getting married to the Zheng family, and she also sent someone to talk to the second uncle, hoping that the second uncle could guide the relationship. After all, the Zheng family was the second uncle's good friend, and it was not easy to ignore him.
Little did she know that her second uncle not only failed to help her, but instead asked Li Shu to betrothed to Zheng Hao.
To her, Zheng Hao was a celestial being. It was said that he was the man that all the young women in the capital wanted to marry, but this man was actually given to Li Shu. !
