C2 An Awkward Identity

"There's no need for that. I've known you for a long time. It's all in my heart. I'll have it with a wave of my hand. Madam will send someone to fetch the painting in three days." I'm quite confident in my painting skills. When I was lonely, I had drawn too many paintings. At the very least, I learned 60% of the paintings from her. With that 60%, it would be enough.

"But Yun Qier's illness hasn't recovered yet."

"It doesn't matter. If I am idle, my illness will only worsen." This was the truth. If a person wanted to sit still, he would only get sick from boredom. After staying in the Prime Minister's Estate for a long time, I have already learned how to expel myself.

"Then I will have to trouble Yun Qier." She got up and left with a smile. The girl by the side quickly helped her up.

When I looked at the smile in her eyes, there was actually an undetectable sadness. What is that sadness? I know that Canary, who is flying in the cage, only has the moment when it spreads its wings because it will never be able to fly high.

Ninth Madame was said to be a person from the grassland and was originally a noble family. Later, her family fell and she followed her father to do business in the Central Plains. When she came to the Central Plains to do business, she got to know her father. Her father's original intention was to betroth her to the eldest wife's son. She did not agree and only said that other than her father, she would not marry anyone else.

Her father was the prime minister of the current dynasty and had power over the entire dynasty. He had won Ninth Madame's favor. Women were either important to influential people or valued relationships. As for Ninth Madame, it seemed that both of them were important. Because of this, she married her father. Her status was no longer important to her.

After sending Ninth Madame off, I sat at the table. The tea was already cold, but my heart was warm. The sound of the rain outside the window was beating against my heart.

I don't know how long it will take for such a day to pass. Although the sisters in the manor don't have any interactions with each other, they are all married. Looking at their marriage, I keep thinking that my good days are about to come to an end. I am sixteen years old. If it wasn't for my poor health, Father would have married me off a long time ago.

My mother was originally a girl in the Public House. It was a time of absurdity after Dad got drunk. It was only that one time that she had me. Perhaps it was her mother's luck. At least she had me as her backing in the Public House, and from then on, she would be able to live without having to worry about food and clothing. And although I am not a man, I can still be happy... That is already the best life for a girl. Actually, my mother doesn't know that she just casually marries a servant. Perhaps her days were not like this, but a completely different world.

The birth of a concubine is destined to make my identity awkward, and it's also a girl. Thus, the husbands and fathers in the mansion have long forgotten about me in the Luoxuan Pavilion of the Prime Minister's mansion. I don't have much contact with others, and I don't have any schemes and schemes in the mansion. Perhaps it's my fortune.

The library is the world of others. When I was young, I would often pass by the library and listen to the loud and clear sounds of reading. I would often secretly climb onto the banyan tree outside the library with envy, and then watch other people's leisurely reading days with Zhizhi.

Until that day. I was so excited that I accidentally fell off the tree and broke my ankle. Thus, I met Lyi Ann.

Thus, I had a brother. He was even closer to me than my own brother.

Henceforth, I had books to read. The books that accompanied me made my life bright and colorful.

Smelling the faint fragrance of tea in the air, he thought of Lyi Ann. He had been gone for some time, but he didn't know when he would return. He had to personally handle all the things that had fallen in the mansion, but he missed me. He brings me things no matter how far away I go, I always think... If only I was a girl in the estate, I could have gone to the Cape of the Sea with him at the end of the world. He and I seemed to have hope.
