Jinghong Building

Chapter 300 Zhou Ying

That day, Zuo Xiaoai came to see He Ran and brought a large food box, which contained several specialty dishes from Jinghonglou and a jar of wine.

As soon as the wine was in his mouth, He Ran narrowed her eyes. She had drunk the wine.

That time, she was also in Zhending Mansion. She looked for the fragrance of wine and walked deep into the alley. Someone called her loudly behind her. She turned around and saw the black girl and the white dog.

This is the wine I drank that day.

The wine is still the same, but the black girl has become Zhou Cangyue.

He Ran asked, "Is there a new wine in Jinghonglou?"

Zuo Xiaoai smiled and said, "Drink it? How about it, is this wine OK?"

He Ran smiled and said, "How can it be? This wine is quite good. Judging from your tone, is it an acquaintance who made the wine?"

Zuo Xiaoai: "You are a noble man and forget about things, but do you still remember Zhou Ying?"

He Ran thought about it and was not sure: "Is it the illegitimate sister of Zhou Chi?"

Zuo Xiaoai: "It's her! She later changed her name and even changed her surname. The name Zhou Ying has not been mentioned for decades."

Zhou Ying is Zhou Chi's half-sister, she is a posthumous daughter. It is said that her biological mother is a maid next to Mrs. Di. She was born after Zhou Chi was taken away by He Jinghong until Zhou Chi returned. After killing Zhou Tong in Zhou Jiabao, he learned from a clan that this sister existed.

After Zhou Ying was born, her biological mother died. It is said that she had a difficult childbirth, and even the relative of the clan did not remember the appearance of this woman.

When Zhou Chi returned to Zhoujiabao, Zhou Ying had already lost it. She was only four years old when she lost it. Mrs. Di insisted that Zhou Ying was stolen by the mother-in-law at home.

Mrs. Di said that she was in an awkward situation and could not move her servant. In short, Zhou Ying was lost and she had never looked for her.

Later, Zhou Chi raised an army and was at its peak. He released news to find his sister Zhou Ying.

He claims to be Zhou Ying, or his husband says his wife belongs to Zhou Ying, and there are more than twenty people.

And one of them is the most similar to Zhou Ying.

Because Zhou Chi did not mention Zhou Ying’s age in detail when he was looking for Zhou Ying, most of the Zhou Ying who came to him were fake.

And this Zhou Ying is the one who matches her age the most.

She could even say that she left home when she was four years old and had tooth-like scars on her hands. She said she was bitten by a dog, and the dog belonged to her brother.

Zhou Wen did raise a big dog, but it is impossible to know whether the dog bit Zhou Ying. After all, Zhou Ying is just a concubine daughter, while Zhou Wen is Mrs. Di’s treasure.

Therefore, Zhou Ying was sent to Mrs. Di, and Mrs. Di invited several clan relatives who had seen Zhou Ying to identify them. In the end, these people, including Mrs. Di, confirmed together with Mrs. Di, that this woman was not the real Zhou Ying.

Mrs. Di was furious and ordered someone to beat the woman to death.

This incident alarmed He Jinghong, and she sent Zuo Xiaoai to save the woman who had been beaten to death.

Mrs. Di was very angry about this, but she didn't dare to argue with He Jinghong, so she could only complain everywhere, saying that He Jinghong was disrespectful to her.

He Jinghong didn't want to interfere in Zhou Chi's family affairs, so he handed the woman over to Zhou Chi.

After Zhou Chi's detailed questions, the woman said more.

She had only a few memories of her before she was four years old. She remembered that her name was Ying Jie'er, she was bitten by her brother's dog, and she also remembered that her mother always beat her up and scolded her. She was very afraid of this person.

And when she really remembered, she had been sold to a flower building as a little maid. When she was eight years old, a customer fell in love with her talent in piano skills and wanted to buy her away. The maid did not agree. Afterwards, she heard the maid say to her man: "This girl can't be sold casually, who knows One day, will the people from Zhoujiabao come here? It is safest to put them under your nose."

She has always been in the flower building, and she has changed from a little maid to a priest. She has played the piano well and has gained some fame.

It was not until she occasionally heard the guests talking about Zhou Chi's search for her sister that she had the courage to come over.

The reason why she took the risk of recognizing her relatives was because she was fifteen years old at that time. The madam hanged her name on the flower sign. She was soon not a priest. Her first time, the price was higher.

This woman's words involve too much and there are many doubts.

According to her, she was obviously sold to the flower building by people from Zhoujiabao. This made her different from Mrs. Di’s statement. Some people lie, either this woman or Mrs. Di.

Zhou Ying is just a concubine daughter born to a slut. A large family like Zhou's family actually does not reject concubine daughters. They will not compete for family property or steal the limelight from the legitimate daughter. When necessary, they can also be used to marry. Of course, the concubine's daughter can also be given as a gift to the higher-ranking person, or as a reward to make her subordinates devotedly.

So, no matter how you look at it, there is no need for Mrs. Di to deal with a small concubine who is only four years old and has no biological mother.

Regardless of whether this woman is real Zhou Ying or not, her previous experience in the Flower Building and her words mean that she cannot stay with Zhou Chi.

If she stays, she will die sooner or later.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

He Jinghong can save her once, but he can't save her for the rest of his life.

She grew up in a flower building and had a mature personality. She knew what to fight for for herself.

So she took the initiative to propose to Zhou Chi that she would not recognize her ancestors and would not restore her identity.

Zhou Chi gave her a considerable sum of money and sent her away one morning.

He Jinghong just knew that the woman had left, and it was unknown where she had gone.

After this time, Zhou Chi never mentioned looking for Zhou Ying again.

Until Mrs. Di passed away and Zhou Chi ascended the throne to the emperor, the woman and the real Zhou Ying did not appear.

And He Ran has only seen her once. She has long forgotten her appearance and has only vaguely remembered this name.

He Ran remembered the past, looked at Zuo Xiaoai meaningfully, and asked, "You are talking about the woman back then, right? How did you find her?"

No wonder it’s both the dishes and the wine today. It turns out that Zuo Xiaoai is having something to do.

Zuo Xiaoai said embarrassedly: "A while ago, a small tavern was transferred, and Baiyun collected all the big wine jars in the tavern. You also know that these old big wine jars are all good things.

In addition to the wine jar, he also took back several jars of wine.

I tasted it and thought the wine was good. After asking, I found out that this tavern had been open for almost twenty years and was still a bit famous in Zhending Mansion. But I don’t know that I don’t go to those places normally. ”

He Ran looked at the emerald set on Zuo Xiaoai. Well, you are really not suitable for going to such a tavern, don’t scare others.

Zuo Xiaoai continued: "I just got interested all of a sudden. I heard that the tavern had not been transferred out yet, so I thought about going to see it."

He Ran: "You want to buy someone's brewing recipe."

Zuo Xiaoai smiled like a big chrysanthemum: "The boss is the boss. As soon as I said it, you know what I want to do? I just want to buy a recipe."
