The weather in April was getting earlier and earlier. He didn't sleep the whole night and only watched the red sun gradually illuminating the windows from the horizon.

"Miss! Miss! It's time to wake up. " The green bandit lifted the curtain and shouted. Ever since I locked up Lusheng, the daily work has fallen on Lan-li and Lan-Qu. As the Green Bandits were in charge of my jewellery and clothes, Lan Lingyun was in charge of the arrangements for the personnel in the house. Every day when she woke up, she would put on clothes and leave it to the Green Bandits.

I lifted the bed curtain. "I'm already up. Come in."

Green Cock helped me to my feet and followed me to the back of the screen. He took out a lotus root color teasel, and underneath it, a dozen navy blue dresses made me appear thinner and thinner.

The sound of footsteps came from outside. I brought Greenwood out from the screen. Lan Ling had already brought the maidservants to bring the hot water to the table.

After cleaning my face, I wore a set of plain silver jewelry. The color of my body was plain and light. There was not a single trace of blood on my face. A faint bluish black color appeared under my eyes.

"Give me some makeup."

Her face was covered with snow-white goose egg powder, and for some reason, that white color appeared to be floating on her face.

"Let's go." I stood up and led the way back to my grandmother's yard.

It was breakfast time, but Grandmother's room was bustling with activity.

When he entered the door, he found that his father had returned. He was currently supporting his mother on both sides of his mother, helping her look at what was lying on the ground. Box after case of brocade, under the rays of the sun, reflected a dazzling brilliance. The whole fur was snow-white, and the various glassware were also reflecting a multicolored light.

"Grandmother, father, mother." I crouched down and saluted, doing a good job of it.

"Yuanyuan is here!" Grandmother smiled at me, a smile that went straight to the heart. No matter how much she scolded, she was still her son. If her father came back, her grandmother would be incredibly happy.

"When did father come back?" I moved closer to my father, who reached out and touched my hair.

"Your father just arrived this morning." His mother also had a cheerful smile on her face.

Usually when his father came back, his mother would be happy, but she didn't feel this way. Was it because something happened in the morning that I didn't know about?

I suppressed the doubts in my heart and followed my grandmother to look at the items that my father had brought back. There were really a few that were extremely rare.

"Yeah! It's boring for an old woman like me to keep that thing. Why not give it to Yuanyuan to play with?" Grandmother seemed to remember something and turned back to look.

"Old lady." When Mother Du saw her grandmother turn around, she hurriedly went forward to serve her.

"Open the cabinet! Take out that big rosewood chest. "

"Is it the box?" Mother Du seemed to hesitate.

"That's the one!" Grandmother's smile was sincere. "Hurry and take it out."

Mother Du took out the box. It was pitch black and had no patterns. It was long and wide, and it was hard to tell what was inside.

"This is the betrothal gift that your grandfather gave me!" The grandmother smiled and directed the servants to put the box on the kang.

A betrothal gift? Then why didn't Grandmother keep it for herself?

Grandmother went to open the box, and I followed her to see what was going on.

When the lid of the box was opened, the fragrance of buddha wafted out from within. It was actually a Jade Zither with the Fuxi style!

It was pitch black with no decorations, and the logo was a little dark. The tassels hanging under Yue Shan's feet had already scattered and scattered.

Such a simple and crude zither, to be able to be so treasured by my grandmother, it must be the record of my grandmother and grandmother's deep love memory, right?

"Mother! It's better if you keep it for yourself! " Before I could reject him, my father already preemptively rejected him on my behalf.

"Why do I keep these things? I won't play anymore anyway! " Grandmother's face sank slightly.

"This zither is too precious, how can I give her a child?" His father's eyebrows were knotted.

This zither is expensive? Why didn't I see it?

"If I'm so unlucky, why don't I give it to Chong Yuanyuan!" Seeing that his father was still going to decline, his grandmother waved him off.

"Shall we test it out?" Grandmother smiled and pointed to the guqin.

The maids carefully lifted the zither out of the zither box and placed it on Grandmother's desk. Grandmother took my hand and followed the maidservant. Father and Mother naturally followed.

This zither … It really was precious! Such a clear and melodious voice was simply unheard-of.

In my previous life, Xue Lang played the zither very well. Even so, the sound of the zither has really stunned me.

I raised my eyes to look at Grandmother. I was so surprised that I couldn't say anything. "This … What a great zither! "

No wonder Father said that this zither was precious! I thought it was precious to record the feelings of my grandparents. I never thought that such an inconspicuous zither could have such a beautiful sound.

"I gave this zither to you, so you have to come play for me often!" Grandmother saw my surprised face, smiled benevolently and touched my head.

"Alright." I blushed and nodded in agreement.

"Now play your grandmother a song." His father helped his grandmother find the arhat chair and sit down. His mother stood behind his grandmother, and after hearing what his father said, her expression changed again and again. She opened her mouth, but no words came out.

I couldn't help but sneer in my heart. Was this considered falling into one's own trap? My mother invited a master to sing a song for me, but she couldn't say it out loud. She only invited a master guqin to teach me. Until now, my grandmother wanted me to play the piano, but I couldn't. How could my mother explain it?

I never thought I'd be falling out with my mother right now! I also need to borrow my mother's hand to send me into the Xue family. I've always hated my mother in my previous life, but now that I think about it, what kind of kind-hearted person is that Madam Xue? He clearly knew that I was pregnant with the Xue Clan's flesh and blood, but he used Xue Lang's weak character and mother's vicious heart to get rid of us, mother and son. If his mother had a pair of bloody hands, then what was even more hateful was that the virtuous and respected ancestor of the Xue Clan, as well as a few heartless wives, would all have to do something behind his back to put on a noble air. The villain hasn't received his retribution, and I haven't found out what my mother, the Xue Clan, and even the Lu Clan want to do with me!

Xue Lang was a scholar with a temper. In order to give him what he wanted, in my previous life, I had learned to play the zither seriously from the beginning, all the way until my belly grew big.

The melodious zither music was filled with memories of the past. As the zither music came to a halt, the fragments of the past also dispersed like passing clouds in the blink of an eye.

He could see the satisfaction in his grandmother's eyes, the smile on his father's face, and his mother's surprised and embarrassed smile!

I stood up and bowed.

It took a long time for her mother to recover from her shock.

"When did your zither arts improve so much?" The mother opened and closed her mouth, finally asking.

"It's all because my mother hired me a master with great skills. My daughter often practices according to the zither music." I smiled at my mother.

What a bunch of lies! I laughed to myself. If I don't even have a zither, how am I supposed to practice?

His mother seemed to realize that she had lost her composure. She indifferently withdrew her emotions and went up to support her grandmother.

"Mother, you haven't eaten breakfast yet!" His mother's voice was as gentle as a pool of water.

"Alright, let's go eat!" Grandmother held out her hand to me.

Because there were many people today, he moved to the dining hall for breakfast. After breakfast, his father accompanied his grandmother for a chat before following his mother to the side courtyard where Aunt Chen was.

"Mother, why are you so happy today?" I held my grandmother's hand and looked at the flowers and plants in her yard.

"Hey!" What else! But your father came back! The first thing he did was come to see Aunt Chen! " Grandmother laughed and cut the branches with a scissors, and I laughed along with her.

"Ha!" What is a little girl like you laughing with my old woman for? " Grandmother looked at me playfully and gently scratched my face.

After pruning the plants, I helped my grandmother back into the inner room, took off her shoes, and sat on the kang.

"Hong Chang, come in!" Grandmother called to the outer room.

"Sigh!" A crisp voice came through the curtain.

A fifteen to sixteen year old girl with a pair of bun on her head and a small red flower on one side of her hairpin walked in. Her face was round, and her cheeks were scarlet red.

"Old lady, young miss!" Hong Chang's stature was medium, her smile was extremely fresh and refreshing.

"You should know as well. That girl Hong Yu is going to marry me. I asked her to stay out for half a month. I can't allow myself to be short of people. Do you think that girl is good?" Grandmother took the tea from Hong Chang's hand and took a sip.

I pulled on Hong Chang's hand, there was a thin cocoon around her fingertips, seems like she was an expert in sewing. Hong Chang's face flushed red, she bowed in respect, and her voice became softer and softer.

"What's wrong with Grandmother's people?" I looked at Hong Chang and smiled.

"Just watch, then she'll do it." There was a faint smile on her grandmother's face.

He then told his grandmother about the red jade dowry. When it was time for lunch, his father walked back from the side yard with his hands clasped behind his back. He said that his mother wanted to accompany Aunt Chen for a meal, so he didn't come.

After lunch, gossip for a while, grandmother said that she was tired, to take a nap, and then scattered.

I brought Lu Kui and Lan Lingyun back to the courtyard, and when I entered the door, I saw a woman and an extremely tall man standing at the entrance of the courtyard.

The expression on the face of the green bandit changed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Miss, those are my mother and brother."

I nodded my head, and the green bandit went up to welcome him.

The green bandit said a few words to the woman, and the woman obediently followed his orders. The man behind the woman became even more terrified as he bowed with all his might. However, there was a huge difference in height. The more he wanted to hide behind the woman, the more obvious it became.

The green bandit took her mother and brother into her house, and Lan Li followed me into the main house.

As the Green Bandits went to arrange for the rest of the family, Lan Ling followed me into the screen to help me change clothes. I whispered to her to check on Hong Chang's background, and Lan Li nodded in agreement.

Outside the screen, Green Bandits was already carrying a copper basin, guilt written all over his face.

I reached into the basin, and the green bandit lowered his head in apology. "Miss, I spoke with my mother about the time. My mother didn't understand the rules, so she thought it would be fine to come early, so she came early."

It seems that Lu Kui's mother was a loyal and honest person! This way, even if Lu Ping were to marry me, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage. I smiled.

"Don't worry, call them in later." After washing up, I sat on the kang and drank a mouthful of tea from the kang table.

"Go and fetch Lu Ping." I told the green bandit to "remember to bring her a bamboo hat."

I didn't want her face to be seen before Lushin was chosen.

"Yes!" The green bandit lowered his head and meekly responded, his face carrying a faint hint of happiness.
