Strange love across time and space

Chapter 4 After understanding the world

After Princess Anping came back, the emperor gave her a palace to make up for the grievances she had suffered in recent years, so that Princess Anping could live more comfortably. He also said that if Princess Anping had a man she liked, he could recruit him into the princess's palace as a consort. There have been constant rewards over the years, which shows how much Princess Anping is favored by the emperor.

Next, let’s talk about the second princess Zhao Yuhui, who was sixteen years old and was born to the emperor’s wife Cheng Meiren. Why was the princess still a beauty after giving birth? This is about Cheng Meiren's mother's family. Cheng Meiren's mother's family was a merchant. In ancient times, merchants, farmers, and merchants had the lowest status. Although they were not short of money, they were still looked down upon. Although the Cheng family made a lot of money for the emperor, it was still difficult for their daughter to be promoted unless she gave birth to a prince. Although the people in the palace were polite to Mei Cheng and the second princess on the surface, many people secretly laughed at them because they were the daughters of merchants and smelled like copper. Zhao Yuhui, who grew up in this kind of environment, has a cowardly character and is cautious in everything she does, for fear of causing trouble for her biological mother and maternal family.

The third princess, Zhao Yurou, is fifteen years old and is a daughter of the Li concubine Ge family. The reason why she was named Li concubine is because Ge family is really beautiful and has fair skin. In addition, she is also good at singing and dancing and has a cheerful personality. Although her maternal brother is She is only a third-grade official, but she is still very popular with the emperor. If the third princess was a prince, she would have been made a concubine long ago. Under the influence of her mother and concubine, Zhao Yurou also had a lively and cheerful personality. She often made the emperor laugh, and everyone in the palace also liked her.

Finally, let’s talk about Su Qing’s family. Su Qixuan, Su Qing’s father, is forty years old and comes from a poor family. He is currently the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple and is a fourth-rank official. Mother Jiang Rong, 38 years old, was born in a small businessman. My elder brother, Su Rui, is twenty years old. He just passed the scientific examination last year and is now only a sixth-grade official. As for Su Qing herself, she was sixteen years old, uneducated and incompetent. She couldn't read a basket of Chinese characters. Among the instruments, chess, calligraphy and painting, the only one she could barely play was the qin, and Nv Hong didn't learn anything.

Since my father's official position was not high and his salary was small, in a place like the capital where land was at a premium, my mother, Jiang Rong, had several shops as a dowry, so I was able to afford a two-a-room house, barely maintaining dignity, and having a family. There were not many people there. There were only two girls in Su Qing's house. One was her personal maid Qingzhu. When Su Qing was young, she went shopping with her parents and saw a five or six-year-old girl among the jugglers on the street. When performing somersaults, she failed to do a good turn and fell down. The owner of the sideshow whipped her and cursed. The little girl did not dare to cry. Su Qing felt sorry for her and begged her father to buy her for a tael of silver. When we got down, the sideshow boss said that the girl had no strength and could not make money just by eating, so he happily sold her to Su Qixuan together with the deed of betrayal. Su Qing named her Qingzhu, hoping that she would be as tenacious as bamboo. From then on, Qingzhu followed Su Qing. They were about the same age. Qingzhu was Su Qing's maid and playmate.

The other one is a girl named Xiu'er that her mother bought from Ren Yazi a few years ago to clean Su Qing. Xiu'er is also fifteen or sixteen years old. She works hard and has a sweet mouth. The three of them get along well with each other.

His father, Su Qixuan, only had a boy's stone with him. Su Qing's mother also bought the stone from Ren Yazi a few years ago. Together with Xiu'er, there were four servants in total, two men and two women, and one was for Su Qing. Jiang Rong kept one for herself, and the two men worked as servants for Su Qixuan and Su Rui respectively. Suri's boy's name is Ajian. In addition to the girl named Linglong whom she bought, her mother Jiang Rong also has her personal nanny, Nanny Lin. Nanny Lin is Jiang Rong's dowry maid. She has been with Jiang Rong for decades and is very loyal.

Generally speaking, this family has a relatively simple population among the ancient officials' families, and there is not so much intrigue. Although Su Qing's life is not rich, her parents and brothers have loved her since she was a child, and she has not been wronged. Su Qing thought to herself, it's a good thing she didn't travel to a wealthy family like those on TV, otherwise, with her IQ, she really wouldn't know how to die.

Thinking of this, Su Qing also felt tired and fell asleep soon after lying down. She slept until the next morning. Su Qing was awakened by the chirping of birds on the window lattice outside. She opened her hazy eyes. With sleepy eyes, all I saw was the pink curtains and antique bed top, and I still couldn't believe that I had traveled through time. After Su Qing lifted the quilt and got out of bed, she looked at her room carefully. Everything was just like in the TV series. Su Qing thought, this is what the ancients called a boudoir. She saw a dressing table in the room. There was a bronze mirror the size of a washbasin. She walked over and saw the body in the bronze mirror for the first time. It had fair skin and a slender figure. Su Qing got closer to the bronze mirror and saw this face clearly. This face was slightly similar to her before she wore it, but it was much more refined. Her original nose was a bit flat, and her face had grown longer due to childbirth. There are some spots, single eyelids, and because I am in my forties, I have some crow's feet at the corners of my eyes when I smile. Extremely ordinary. Looking at the face in front of me again, the nose is straight, the face is fair and smooth, full of collagen, the double eyelids, and the eyes are very spiritual. Su Qing is particularly satisfied with her body. The most important thing is that the eyes of this body are not short-sighted! In the past, she had 800 degrees of myopia and had to wear glasses every day. Once she took off her glasses, she could not tell the difference between humans and animals ten meters away. She is fine now. She sees everything very clearly. She has not felt this way for many years!
