The street market is crowded with people, brilliant and lively.

One of the houses located on the outskirts of the city seemed extremely deserted as soon as they entered the house, and there were a few crying sounds coming from it.

"Old lady, Brother Cheng is still young. He didn't mean it. He just saw that thing was shiny and fun, not intentionally wanted to take it!" In the dim room, only a kerosene lamp emitted a faint light. A young woman in a 25 or six-year-old dress in a lotus-green coarse cloth knelt on the ground, her pretty face turned red, her eyes were filled with tears, and she was about to cry, looking a little pity.

Next to her was a boy about eight years old, with fair skin and clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes. At this time, his back was standing straight. Even though he was wearing a coarse linen, he felt like he was a spoiled young master.

"I'm still young? Isn't it intentional? Aunt Gui really can get rid of his sixth brother!" Zhou Jingyu, wearing a white long skirt, stood coldly opposite them, with a pretty face cold and anger condensed in her eyes. "He grew up studying the Four Books and Five Classics. His father loved and spoiled him. He invited him the best dress. Today, he didn't even understand the most basic etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame? Today he can steal my hairpin, and tomorrow he can do something to kill and set fire!"

Aunt Gui hugged Cheng Ge'er tightly and wiped his tears in grievance, "Why do you have to say this in the third girl? Now we have been demoted to common people, we are all grasshoppers on a rope. As your younger brother, Cheng Ge'er just took a hairpin for a while. You have to slander his reputation like this, and this has spread. How can Cheng Ge'er be a human being in the future?"

"Don't think about accusing me of the crime! My mother is sick, my grandmother is kind. My father doesn't care about anything. Do you think this way can do evil? Don't treat everyone as a fool. Brother Cheng, I'm really not a person who can steal, but if someone is willing to teach me, it's a different story!"

"What does the third girl mean?" Aunt Gui's pretty face turned pale and stared at Zhou Jingyu hatefully.

Zhou Jingyu pulled open the corner of his lips and smiled, "What does it mean? What does it mean to find out to the end? Do you think Cheng Nanbo Mansion will never be able to recover if he suffers such a big blow? Do you think that everyone can step on us?! I tell you, we can survive today and make a comeback tomorrow! Don't want to put down the wrong person, don't want to look down on us! You want to steal all the valuable items and take Brother Cheng away, you don't want to suffer with us. Okay, I will fulfill your wish!" As he said that, his hand was already touching the whip that was blocked by his waist.

When Aunt Gui thought of Aunt Fang's fate, she suddenly became flustered and no longer had the calmness she had just now.

Brother Cheng was sturdy in front of Aunt Gui, his little face turned red, and he shouted: "Sister Three, why are you cruel? Do you think you are a daughter? Do you think you are a noble lady? Now we are all just common people who are trampled on! You said I stole your hairpin. It was a joke. My uncle's house was confiscated, and all the things should be confiscated. So, what are your hairpin that you call stolen! What qualifications do you have to do with the thief?"

"You!" Zhou Jingyu's pretty face turned red with anger. Her innate pride made her unable to bear the humiliation of others, especially someone whom she looked down upon in front of her eyes. She didn't care about anything at the moment, so she took out a whip and slapped it hard.

"Ah!" A scream rang out, but it was not Cheng Ge'er's.

"Zhou Wanyu, what are you doing?" Zhou Jingyu opened her eyes and realized that it was her sister who blocked the sharp whip.

Zhou Wanyu's face turned pale in pain, and his facial features became distorted, but he still spoke with difficulty, "Sister, Brother Cheng is still young. Besides, he did not make much mistake, but it was just a hairpin..."

"Whose sister are you?" Zhou Jingyu was so angry that she trembled all over. "Do you think it's really just a hairpin? Do you think everyone is as simple as you imagined! If you don't punish today, we will be killed by their mother and son tomorrow!"

Aunt Gui has never been a good person to be a good person. Compared to Aunt Fang's greed and ostentatiousness, she is better at forbearing and planning. When she was in the mansion, her mother had suffered several times of loss.

This time she instigated Brother Cheng to steal hairpins, and next time she could steal other things. When she accumulated enough, she would take them out and sell them. In order to eliminate future troubles, Aunt Gui would definitely report to the government that they did not confiscate all their property. At that time, they would get the money and fly away, and the rest would be the end of the disaster!

"Sister Three, you are really too sensitive, and not everyone is as cruel and complicated as you imagine." Zhou Wanyu still held Brother Cheng firmly in his arms and induced Zhou Jingyu in a straightforward manner: "Now that such a big thing has happened, it is not easy for us to survive. The whole family should support each other and go on together. You are always suspicious and will force everyone away sooner or later. Is that what the third sister wants to see?"

Zhou Jingyu's face turned blue and white, and his hands holding the whip tightly together, and his knuckles also turned blue and white.

"Forget it, Jingyu, let it go!" Mrs. Zhou, who had been sitting in the upper head, suddenly sighed tiredly and said, "Grandma knows that you are unhappy. It's enough for you to vent. Don't be rebellious for a hairpin and turn against your family. It's not worth it."

"Grandmother!" Zhou Jingyu turned around in a hurry and said in surprise: "I'm not for a hairpin, I'm..."

"Grandmother knows that it was the kind thing that Young Master Xiao gave you." Mrs. Zhou interrupted her and looked at her indifferently and said, "But Jingyu, everything has passed. Don't think about it anymore. Just think about it, how could the Xiao Mansion marry a daughter of a sinful minister into the door?"

Zhou Jingyu's face turned pale in an instant.

Mrs. Zhou closed her eyes and waved her hand and said, "Go down, we will be a family in the future. There is no difference between a legitimate daughter or a concubine. You must also restrain your temperament."

Zhou Jingyu bit her lips tightly and burst into tears in grievance.

Does she want to be so domineering and powerful? Does she want to be ahead of everything? Like Zhou Wanyu, she has been spoiled since childhood and does not understand the dangers of the world. She is good at being a good person when something happens. When something happens, she only knows how to cry. Is this what they want to see!

Yes, yes, they only like Zhou Wanyu, her bright and charming, her obedient and innocent, and her coquettish act, but they don’t like her Zhou Jingyu’s indifference and arrogance, and her sharpness is revealed.

So, no matter how hard she worked for this family, no matter how much effort and energy she put in, it was still worthless in their eyes!

Even the love she defended to the death was, in their eyes, just something that could be discarded at will and given up to others.

"I hope you don't regret it!" Zhou Jingyu squeezed out these words from his teeth, then turned around and ran out.

"Three sister!" Zhou Wanyu wanted to chase him out.

"Wan Yu!" Mrs. Zhou called her, "You go with her. She just fell from the clouds, and she always needs some time to adapt."

Zhou Wanyu bit her lip and insisted: "I'm afraid that my third sister will do something stupid, she is so arrogant."

Mrs. Zhou sighed and had to go with her.

No one saw a faint smile on the lips of Aunt Gui who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhou Jingyu ran forward desperately. In fact, she didn't know where she was going, but she only knew to stay away from that home and the so-called relatives in that home.

She felt like a joke.

He tried his best to protect this family, but was completely denied by the people in this family.

In their eyes, she was a villain who wanted to destroy their love. What was she still doing?

But where can she go?

Grandma said it very well. Now with her identity, how can she be worthy of Xiao Ming?

She was so angry today that there was indeed a hairpin given to her by Xiao Ming. In fact, almost all the items she took out of the mansion were given to her little by little by little by little.

First, I want to come in handy when I am desperate in the future, and second, I want to have a thought.

But grandmother said that she was thinking about it.

Oh, delusional...

Zhou Jingyu slowed down while running, then squatted down and started crying unscrupulously.

Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming...

She tightened her chest, and the pointed head of the crested hairpin she snatched back from her arms pierced into her palm through her clothes.

Blood penetrated the clothes and fell down drippingly.

But she didn't feel any pain at all.

Maybe, my heart hurts too much!

"Xiao Ming..."

What should she do in the future?

The world is so big that there is no place for her to live in.

"Jingyu! Jingyu!" A nervous and anxious cry suddenly came from his ears.

It is the sound of day and night thinking.

Zhou Jingyu was still squatting there, thinking in a daze, is she so sad that she actually had auditory hallucinations.

"Jingyu, Jingyu, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" My body was pushed again, and the voice was so close.

Zhou Jingyu was stunned.

It seems, it seems not an illusion.

She hurriedly raised her head, and what caught her eye was the face she dreamed of day and night, even in dreams.

Xiao Ming's face.

At this moment, this face was not as calm as before, nor as gentle as in the dream, but was frowned tightly, full of worry and nervousness.

"Xiao, Xiao Ming..." Zhou Jingyu spoke in a trembling voice, still unbelievable.

"It's me." Xiao Ming nodded violently, "It's me, I'm here to see you, I finally find an opportunity to see you!"

"Xiao Ming!" After confirmation, Zhou Jingyu flew into his arms, then hugged him tightly, crying like a child for the first time, "I thought you didn't want me anymore, I thought you never want me anymore!"
