Chapter 128: The Daughter of the Family Who Was Rejected (Extra)
————Extra————
My name is Zhao Yujing. I heard that my father gave me the word Jing because I was very quiet and didn’t cry or make any noise when I was born.
However, when I grew up, I was not like the word "quiet" at all. I thought that I was lively and cheerful, which was good, much better than my nerdy second brother. I really didn't know why Dad was always troubled by this.
When I was little, my father scolded me for climbing trees or crawling through dog holes all day long, and said I didn't behave like a girl at all. But I climbed trees because housekeeper Zhao said that the bird eggs on the trees could nourish my mother's body and were better than those medicinal herbs.
I heard that my mother was injured while saving my aunt, and it took her many years to recover. Later, she gave birth to me and my second brother. Although her old injuries did not recur, she still ate the medicated food prepared by my eldest sister every day. I also want to do something for my mother.
I finally climbed up the tree and was about to get the nest of bird eggs, but then my dad came and yelled in anger, which scared me so much that I almost fell off the tree.
Then my father punished me. He made me stay in the room and reflect on my mistakes. Fortunately, my eldest sister came to see me with my favorite peach blossom pastry. She asked me why I had to climb the tree and rob the bird's nest.
I originally wanted to get bird eggs to nourish my mother, but in the end I didn't get any eggs. Not only that, I made my mother worry. I heard that she drank an extra bowl of calming soup at night. I was too embarrassed to tell her the reason, so I just told my eldest sister that I was just curious and went to play with the bird eggs.
My eldest sister did not blame or teach me a lesson like my father did. Instead, she told me that bird eggs are also the chicks of big birds. If I took them away, their mother would be worried and sad, just like our mother was worried about us.
I knew I was wrong, and since then I have never climbed a tree or robbed a bird's nest again.
Later, one time, Butler Zhao asked me if I wanted to go out to play. Of course I wanted to. The last time I went out with my mother and the others, the candied haws there were so delicious, as well as the sugar-roasted chestnuts and the sugar men... But my mother and elder sister were afraid that I would have a toothache, so they always forbade me to eat too much of these sweets.
Butler Zhao said he had a way. He told me about several dog holes in the mansion that were just the right size for me to crawl through. Hehe, Butler Zhao is such a good man. I was so happy that I secretly sent away the maid Lian Qiao and sneaked out through the dog hole.
The street outside was bustling with people coming and going. I looked around happily, and then I saw my eldest sister and a few servants there looking at me leisurely. I was caught and then confined by my father again.
Woohoo, I'm so miserable.
I didn’t get to eat anything delicious. My elder sister didn’t help me this time and she was also angry.
My eldest sister is a very capable person. She is usually very nice to us and considers us in everything. But sometimes I feel that she is a little difficult to get close to, as if she is deliberately distancing herself from us and keeping a distance from us.
However, my eldest sister is still a heroine in my mind.
That time, I planned to sneak out while she and mother were attending a banquet and no one was watching in the house. But I ran into that nerd Zhao Yucheng on the way. He was not reading a book, but was watching over me.
Why should he act like an older brother just because he was born a few minutes earlier than me? But he couldn't win the argument with me, so I finally pulled him out of the house. I was so happy when I got outside, and wandered around everywhere. Then, not only did I lose my way, I was also caught by two bad guys and locked up in a small dark room.
There were many children about my age in the room, and they were all crying. My second brother Zhao Yucheng's eyes were also red. I wanted to comfort them, but no one paid attention to me.
Then, after an unknown amount of time, the door opened. I was captured by two bad guys, who put me in a sack again, and we were bumping along the way. I didn't know where they were taking me, and I gradually became more and more scared. I was afraid that I would never see my second brother, eldest sister, father, and mother again.
Then I was thrown to the ground. It hurt so much where I was hit. I was so scared that I couldn’t hold back my tears anymore and burst into tears. I really wanted to go home.
Then I saw my eldest sister. It was not a dream, but a real, living eldest sister. She rode a tall and handsome horse and came to save me quickly. At that moment, my eldest sister was my unparalleled hero.
My eldest sister is the most powerful person in the world. The two bad guys she beat cried louder and more miserably than me. I felt much more balanced and went home obediently with my eldest sister. In the evening, my mother asked someone to cook a table full of my favorite dishes. Hehe, I suddenly felt that I had not lost out this time.
Later, the eldest princess' aunt gave birth to a little daughter. My sister and I went to the eldest princess's house to visit our newborn cousin. There we met a major general who seemed to be my sister's childhood playmate.
Later, the sister who seemed to me to be omnipotent also got married, and she married this major general.
My brother-in-law is the son of a great general. He is also a hero who fought on the battlefield to defend his country. That is why he did not marry for many years. Later, when he returned to Beijing, he fell in love with my sister at first sight.
Hehe, actually I have heard another version, that my brother-in-law actually liked my sister when he was a child many years ago.
He was weak at that time and was always bullied by a group of bad kids. Until one day his sister saw it and stood up to protect him, and then they were both beaten by those bad kids.
But at that moment, the great image of my sister was engraved in my brother-in-law's heart. However, because my sister had been engaged since childhood, my brother-in-law was saddened and left for the battlefield to defend his country.
However, now they are finally together!
congratulations!
On the day my sister got married, I couldn't help but tear up. Although I knew my brother-in-law loved my sister very much, I still warned him that if he dared to bully my sister, I would blow his head off, even though he was a military general and I definitely couldn't beat him.
My brother-in-law sincerely promised me that he would treat my sister well for the rest of his life, and then their wedding procession walked further and further away.
I finally couldn't hold back my tears, and at this moment a slender hand handed me a handkerchief. I thought it was Zhao Yucheng, and just as I was about to speak, I looked up and saw that it was my cousin.
He smiled and picked up a handkerchief to wipe my tears. He said, "Xiao Jing'er, stop crying. If Wu Jing'an dares to bully cousin Shu, I will help you beat him up."
Hehehe, it turns out that my cousin is the best to me.
I like him the most too!
Later, when I finally reached the age of marriage, my cousin came to propose marriage with my uncle and the eldest princess' aunt. I was so shy that I hid in my room and didn't dare to go out to see them.
My mother still sent someone to ask me what I thought, and I naturally nodded happily in agreement. In fact, my cousin is also the person I have always wanted to marry since I was a child.
Finally, I married my cousin as I wished. On the wedding day, my cousin pulled me out of the Shangshu Mansion and whispered in my ear, "Xiao Jing'er, don't cry this time. I will treat you well, I promise!"
I laughed.
I believe him.
