Chapter 15

Miss Jin is a beauty, Mrs. Jin is naturally flowery, through the body of the temperament and elegance is still above his daughter. She already has such a big daughter as Miss Jin, but does not show her age, her face does not see a trace of fine lines, her body posture is delicate, now full of tears, her voice is sharp and not annoying, as if the rain under the lotus flower, drooping diagonal stems are also beautiful.

After she came in and saw Yang Yuyan let her go, only to Sun Zhao force, mouth and mouth forced to ask, asked Sun Zhao had to kneel down and beg for forgiveness: “Mrs., please Mrs. calm down, are small is not.” Said on one down kowtow to.

Yang Yuyan, who had only seen people kowtowing at Chinese New Year, had her eyes all staring up.

Su Chunjun refused to fall into the well, pulling Yang Yuyan to stand up and walk to a corner.

“Don’t look, watching people make a fool of themselves will get you hated.” He taught Yang Yuyan in a low voice.

Yang Yuyan hid behind him and still couldn’t help but stick her head out to look, saying at first glance, “Surprisingly, she knelt down just like that.”

Su Chunjun, not surprised, said, “He’s just like a servant of the Jin family, what’s the point of kowtowing to the master as a subordinate? There were many who kowtowed when they met in the past.”

He pushed Yang Yuyan upright and made her look out the window.

“You also guessed what’s going on, so don’t get scared in a while.” He said.

Yang Yuyan was puzzled, “What would scare me?”

Su Chunjun: “Guess who was beaten there just now?”

Yang Yuyan’s face turned white, “My sister?!” After saying that, she saw Su Chunjun sigh, and she reacted that it was a man. Her heart sank as she turned her mind again.

Related to the Golden Mansion, male, or what she knew – whoops.

It had to be one of the two Ma family fathers and sons.

Ma Tianbao, or Ma Tianbao’s father, or both were beaten.

Su Chunjun was afraid of scaring her in a while, and gave her a precaution in advance.

“I just said, the master teaches his own lackeys, you don’t have to worry for the lackeys. It’s normal whether they kowtow or get beaten.” He gently stroked Yang Yuyan’s shoulder, “The Jin family is now doing everything they can to find Miss Jin. They can’t find a way elsewhere, and they won’t blame you too much if they still can’t find it here, but they’ll just keep you longer and longer, and in the end, they’ll still let you go.”

Yang Yuyan was scared, “Then will they beat me?”

Su Chunjun’s hand on her shoulder used force and laughed, “They beat others to scare you, just because they can’t do anything to you. You, an ordinary person who is not half related to his Jin family, is not his own subordinate who can be beaten and scolded at will. Not to mention that your teacher, I’ve come along, would I still let them bully you at will?”

Yang Yuyan couldn’t help but lean towards him.

The feeling of having one’s body and life out of one’s hands was too bad. She had savored it once, thinking that she had been relieved by that jump, and after arriving here all that was left was to get by. She doesn’t pursue prominence, wealth, love, or even how long she can live, she just wants to live one day at a time. Zhu Yanshu is a loving mother, she will be her naive and lovely little daughter; Yang Yucan is a good sister, she will be a sister who does not cause trouble.

In the future, no matter whether it is the Yang family or the Zhu family’s property she will not ask for half, in addition to studying homework really can not be helped, she will do what she can do.

These two years have been very smooth, all according to what she wanted to do, but today encountered the Jin family again. The Jin family was so powerful that they were able to capture her and bully her. If it wasn’t for Ms. Su who saw the injustice and insisted on following her, she would be at the mercy of others in their hands now.

A sense of injustice gradually rose from her chest.

But a greater helplessness also enveloped her.

What could she do?

And what could be done?

“How long is he going to keep us?” She asked.

Su Chunjun saw how depressed she was and comforted her, “At most one day and night, and if we can’t find anyone, he’ll have to let us go. If you want to leave earlier, just say you don’t know anything. They didn’t expect you to know anything important.”

Then Zhu Yanshu wouldn’t be mad with anxiety?

It didn’t take a day and night, she should have looked for her when she came home for dinner after playing cards at noon and saw that she wasn’t there.

Even earlier, Zhang Ma would also look for her when she came home from grocery shopping and couldn’t see anyone.

The truth is that she does not have to go to school, and rarely go out before, the furthest they go out is to go to the bookstore, and even farther will not go.

At this time, the door walked into a line of people. At the head was a middle-aged man in a lab coat, next to him was Wang Wanchuan, and there was a middle-aged man who looked a lot like Sun Zhao. The three people walked in, the one at the head first walked to Mrs. Jin to help her and said, “Well, don’t make it difficult for Ah Zhao.”

Mrs. Jin let out a cry of sorrow and fell into the middle-aged man’s arms, “Master! I’m really worried about Julie!”

Sun Zhao was still kneeling on the ground not daring to get up.

The middle-aged man, also known as Master Jin, helped Mrs. Jin to sit on the sofa before asking Wang Wanchuan to help Sun Zhao.

Sun Zhao also cried a face of tears, forehead red and swollen, just did not less knock.

Wang Wanchuan did not help him, but knelt down next to Sun Zhao and kowtowed to Mrs. Jin and Master Jin together.

Wang Wanchuan: “Auntie, Auntie, it’s all my fault, I should have accompanied Julie back first, I was too sloppy. Ah Zhao also listened to me, letting the car go to drop off the Yang family’s mother and daughter was also what I said.”

Mrs. Jin scolded, “Of course it’s all your fault! You think I don’t blame you? Julie treats you like a big brother and this is how you treat her! A single tie clip made you forget about her to the back of your mind!”

Wang Wanchuan didn’t argue and knelt down to obediently listen to the scolding.

Master Jin said, “Well, Ah Chuan just went out for a run and just came back, let him get up, and Ah Zhao, both of you get up. This matter, alas …… is my teaching daughter is not strict ah ……”

Master Jin said this, even Mrs. Jin could not continue to cry, a room of people were silent.

Wang Wanchuan and Sun Zhao how dare to speak?

Mrs. Jin lowered her head and silently dropped her tears, also not daring to answer.

Master Jin: “You guys get up.”

At this time, he turned his head to look at the window standing Su Chunjun and Yang Yuyan, saw Yang Yuyan also froze for a moment, really in the Sun Zhao report, he and Mrs. Jin thought with Jin Juli friends is a person with her about the same age, Yang Yuyan obviously to be a little younger, he and Mrs. Jin and very well understand their own daughter, know very well that her temperament is cold, is not a very enthusiastic character, much less in the first meeting with people become good friends. She would never become good friends with someone at their first meeting. It would be even more unlikely if it was Yang Yuyan.

This is the reason why Sun Zhao lied in order to shirk her responsibility.

Master Jin also understood why Mrs. Jin was so rude to Sun Zhao just now. Not just because Sun Zhao is not Wang Wanchuan, but because Sun Zhao did this, Mrs. Jin was already angry, and this added another point of distrust.

Master Jin didn’t say anything more, but Sun Zhao’s father, Sun Wangxian, knew that this was not a good idea, so Wang Wanchuan stood up, and he went over and pressed Sun Zhao down again.

Sun Wangxian: “You give me continue to kneel!”

Sun Zhao didn’t dare to say much and continued to kneel well.

Wang Wanchuan couldn’t say much, his own father taught his son, what could he say? What’s more, he ran to the train station, bus station and pier early in the morning, and ran to several places to try to find Jin Juli, and only heard that Sun Zhao had brought Yang Yuyan into the picture after he came back. In his heart of hearts, he thought Sun Zhao’s move really stunk! He couldn’t even figure out who was Jin Juli’s elopement partner, what would a little girl who had only met Jin Juli once know? He’d robbed the person hard, and it was half useless except for adding insult to injury!

And now being scolded by Sun Wangxian is also good for Sun Zhao. That way, his aunt would not be too angry in his heart.

Wang Wanchuan didn’t care about Sun Zhao and hurriedly introduced Yang Yuyan to Master Jin and Mrs. Jin first.

Once Master Jin heard that it was a descendant of the Zhu family, his face became even worse, “What nonsense! What will people say about me if they find out!”

Mrs. Jin is not a confused person, wiped her tears, personally got up and walked over to lead Yang Yuyan over to sit down, “Good boy, I told you to suffer, it’s all because the subordinates in the family didn’t understand, causing you to suffer a shock as well.”

This attitude became too fast.

In fact, Yang Yuyan has already treated Master Jin and Mrs. Jin as bullies, but she didn’t want to turn her attitude one hundred and eighty degrees.

Su Chunjun was relieved. If the Jin family really wanted to take their anger out, there was nothing they could do. Now it looks like they are being reasonable?

It’s good to be reasonable.

He gave Yang Yuyan a gentle hand behind her, signaling her to show some manners, “Quickly greet Mrs. Jin.”

Yang Yuyan then obediently got up, bowed and greeted her before resuming her seat.

Only then did Mrs. Jin turn her attention to him. Su Chunjun didn’t wait for an introduction and introduced himself, “My name is Su, Su Chunjun. Mrs. Jin, I am Miss Yang’s tutor, when Mr. Sun came to the door, I was giving Miss Yang a lesson, and I was worried that she would not be able to explain things clearly as a small child, which in turn delayed the Jin family’s business, so I followed her here together, and I hope you will bear with me for any disrespect.”

Mrs. Jin is really too embarrassed, and the shame of the family scandal, let her to Su Chunjun such an outsider really do not know how to deal with. Apologize? It is not suitable for her status, not to mention that the tutor is just an employee, politely called a teacher, not polite is a subordinate. But apologizing is even more wrong. After all, the Jin family to people’s children hard to tie to, to apologize to the children does not count, or should apologize to the elders of the people.

Su Chunjun knows that his identity is awkward, said Yang Yuyan’s elders, but not parents, said not elders, but still a teacher.

He said: ”Ms. Zhu is only afraid that she already knows about the second young lady coming out at this moment. Just now we left in a hurry and didn’t leave a note for the family, if possible, can we have second miss hang up a phone call to the family?”

Mrs. Jin nodded after a little contemplation, “That’s good.” It was better to speak to Ms. Zhu about the main matter.

Yang Yuyan thought she would have to go elsewhere to make the call, but unexpectedly the Jin Mansion was more advanced than the Zhu family, and before long a manservant came over with a phone on a tray.

After a small eye-opening experience, Yang Yuyan felt that this trip had been an insightful one. But when she was finally able to pull out the phone and go home, she started to get scared. She held up the microphone and looked back at Su Chunjun, “…… My mom will beat me to death, right?” While saying this, she gave the phone to Su Chunjun and asked him to call on her behalf.

Su Chunjun put his hands on his knees and just didn’t lift them up to pick it up, shaking his head, “Your mom is just beating you up. If I make this call, I’ll be swept away.”

How do you know that Ms. Zhu could not be angry at the loss of her daughter? This anger to him, he can continue to live in such a good place at a good price?

Mrs. Jin empathized and took the microphone in Yang Yuyan’s hand, “I’ll do it.”

The phone hung up and was answered by Zhang Ma.

Mrs. Zhang asked slowly and methodically, “Hello, this is Zhu Gong Gong.”

Yang Yuyan heard clearly from the side and instantly realized that Zhang Ma hadn’t even noticed that she was missing! Before she could be happy, she thought that even if she didn’t know before, she should know now that she had heard the call.

Sure enough, after Mrs. Jin finished speaking, Zhang Ma couldn’t understand: “You said our second young lady went to the Jin Mansion?”

Mrs. Jin didn’t want to tangle with the subordinate and said patiently, “Please ask your wife to answer the phone.”

Mrs. Zhang: “Oh, oh, you wait.” She puts down the phone and goes to call someone.

Not long after, Zhu Yanshu put down the card table and hurriedly came and picked up the phone, “Hello, this is Zhu Yanshu.”

Mrs. Jin: “Hello Ms. Zhu, this is Jin Wang Yue’e.”

Zhu Yanshu said nonchalantly, “There’s no need to make small talk! I know my daughter, how did she get to the Jin family? In a while I will discuss with you all when I arrive at the Jin family!!!”

Zhu Yanshu put down the phone and was ready to kill to come to the Jin Mansion, Mrs. Jin didn’t even have time to apologize before she was hung up on. But it was they who were in the wrong, so they had to admit it.

However, Mrs. Jin was not angry, she could understand Zhu Yanshu’s heart of a loving mother, although she had not seen Zhu Yanshu, but she had heard about her long ago, it can be said that God has been friends for a long time.

She only has one daughter, and her daughter is her lifeblood, her eyes. Now that her lifeblood is gone, she is disoriented, and she can better appreciate Zhu Yanshu’s feelings when she found out about Yang Yuyan’s accident.

She looked at Yang Yuyan and couldn’t help but think of Jin Juli, she put her into her arms and gently patted her, “Don’t be afraid, your mom will come to pick you up in a while.”

Yang Yuyan felt that this was not the right time to struggle, so she could only be a cuddle bear at ease.

Master Jin, however, didn’t want to continue to stay here and wait for Zhu Yanshu, he got up and said to Mrs. Jin, “Ma’am, you stay here with Ms. Yang, when Ms. Zhu arrives, apologize properly for me, then send their mother and daughter away, remember to prepare a generous gift. I’ll go and think of another way.”

Mrs. Jin’s eyes were wooden and unmoving, slightly letting go of Yang Yuyan, who hurriedly sat up straight.

Mrs. Jin: “Who are you going to find a solution? The Japanese?”

Master Jin’s connections were wide enough, and he was also related to the Japanese.

Yang Yuyan remembered that Jin Juli said that she lived in England when she was a child, so obviously Master Jin had a deeper and longer relationship with the English. But now that something had happened to Jin Juli, he was even able to go to the Japanese.

Su Chunjun seemed to be in a daze, as if he hadn’t heard anything and wasn’t curious. He saw that Yang Yuyan’s curious eyes had already turned to Master Jin’s side, and reached out to flick her on the head, gently “shushing” her when she stared angrily at him.

Yang Yuyan then continued to be a lady, sitting upright.

Master Jin took a look at these two outsiders, did not say much, and took away all the people, including Sun Zhao, who was still kneeling there.

At this time, Yang Yuyan remembered the Ma family’s father and son, who might have been treated as chickens and killed for her to see, thinking that they were also her sister’s “acquaintances”, so she turned her head and hinted to Su Chunjun, making a “Ma” gesture.

Su Chunjun: “Hush.”

And again, he shushed.

Yang Yuyan, who was shushed, had to endure the pain and give up her conscience.

No one is left in the house, Mrs. Jin looked at Yang Yuyan and probably triggered the heart of a loving mother, even talked about Jin Juli to her.

Mrs. Jin: “Seeing you reminds me of Julie when she first came back. In fact, the name I gave her was Xu Nian, Jin Xu Nian. Unfortunately, she was more used to the name Julie when she came back and had to change it.”

Probably these words, Mrs. Jin had long wanted to say to Jin Juli, but unfortunately had not been able to say it, not wanting her daughter to suddenly disappear, she may no longer be able to say these words to her daughter, only at this time all poured out to Yang Yuyan.

“Back then, when I got on the boat to go to England, Julie was still in my stomach.”

Longlongago ago, when the emperor was still in the Forbidden City has not yet run, this side of the foreign adults have waved a lot of gold and silver ashore.

Master Jin was still an ordinary small merchant at that time, and had a mind to make a big fortune!

He was a tea seller, and befriended a British duke named Megan. With the help of the British Duke, his business took off and soon opened up.

Unexpectedly at this time, the King of England seems to have died or something, in short, something big happened. Duke Megan hurriedly returned to his country, and Master Kim’s business fell by the wayside.

At this time, he thought of a strange trick: send Mrs. Kim on the ship to England, so that Mrs. Kim to find Duke Megan’s duchess of old times, accompanied by a lot of gifts.

Mrs. Jin on the ship when the stomach is only four or five months, not two months after the ship to be born, after birth and then do the month, and so on the gold Julie full week, she has become a very good friend with the Duke of Megan’s wife.

Master Jin’s business naturally took off, and even made it to England.

As the business gradually improved, the more money, Mrs. Jin and not at home, Master Jin began to lead the second wife, third wife, fourth wife …… to the home.

Mrs. Jin saw the bad, immediately want to return to China. Still do not dare to tell Master Jin in advance, for fear that he blocked, to quietly go back.

Duchess very sympathetic to Mrs. Jin’s situation, after all, Duke Megan also has a mistress. She not only found a boat so that Mrs. Jin can go back safely, but also willing to take care of her must stay in the United Kingdom Jin Julie.

It’s not that Mrs. Kim doesn’t want to take Julie back, but it’s too dangerous to be at sea for months, and even more dangerous for a one-year-old child. She couldn’t wait until she was old enough to go back, and she was afraid that by then there would be no place for her in the Jin family.

So after crying for a few nights, Mrs. Jin broke her heart and put down her daughter to go back to her own country.

After that, Mrs. Jin after fighting concubines rushed to the United Kingdom to send a nurse and maid to take care of Jin Juli, but the fact that the person to take back is unable to find the right manpower. One after another until the death of Duke Megan, Duchess Megan is ready to go back to her mother’s home, can not continue to take care of Jin Juli, so Jin Juli at the age of ten years old finally returned to her parents.

Although there has always been a nurse and maids around the care, Jin Juli can speak Chinese, understand the female training, but the gap between her and her parents is simply can not be bridged.

Jin Juli in the United Kingdom because of the different skin color has no way to enter the mainstream of society, but Duchess Megan did not relax her education, she has been subjected to the orthodox education of British ladies.

But when she returned home, she found that she still had no way to integrate into the society she was supposed to belong to. She was good at the piano, could dance the minuet, and was educated in social, economic, and literary matters. But she doesn’t know the four books, she only wears dresses and high heels, and she can’t even carry on a conversation for ten minutes when she sits down with Mrs. Kim at home, even though they look uncannily alike.

It took nine years for Julie Kim to make herself into a person who didn’t stand out at home or at school, who tried to learn what her parents wanted her to do and did her best.

Mrs. Kim had seen and remembered all of this, even if she hadn’t said anything to her daughter.

Mrs. Kim said with tears in her eyes, “I know that she has always wanted to leave me, to leave this home that she is not used to.” That’s why she knew that once Julie Kim left, she might just never come back.

“But I can’t help but worry about her! She’s still too young, she doesn’t know where there are good people and bad people. How will she eat when she goes out? Live somewhere? Who’s looking after her? Is that man reliable? How long can he take care of Julie? Will she be happy?” It was as if Mrs. King wanted to pass these words on to her daughter through the narrative.

She murmured, “As long as I’m made sure that she’s fine and that she’ll be happy, I’ll be able to rest assured that I won’t force her to come back.”

Yang Yuyan had been a prop since a while ago, and she was doing a pretty good job of listening to Mrs. Jin talk about the old days while her brain raced. She was just thinking, the Jin Julie she had seen could not look at all like she couldn’t even speak Chinese well when she first came back to China, she looked like a Republican celebrity you could often see in the pictorials, dressed in all the fashionable attire, and polite and cultivated as a person.

If what Mrs. Jin said was true, then it was really not easy for Julie Jin to become like this.

Yang Yuyan suddenly felt that there was something strange that just suddenly came to her mind.

She said, “Does Ms. Jin only have one home teacher in England?”

Mrs. Jin was stunned and wiped her tears and shook her head, “No, she has six home teachers. They teach her etiquette, dance, piano, music, German and French respectively.”

Yang Yuyan was even more surprised, “Is one of them an exiled aristocrat then? Was the one who taught her German?”

Mrs. Jin immediately denied it, “That’s impossible. The teachers the Duchess hired for Julie at the time were all very prestigious people.”

Yang Yuyan: “But …… all she ever told me about was an exiled nobleman teacher. All the funny things happened during the lessons with this teacher.”

Mrs. Jin and her looked at each other, and then, Mrs. Jin understood! She stood up violently!

Yang Yuyan was still talking, “I’ve been feeling a little strange. Mrs. Jin, you just said that Miss Jin went back to China when she was ten years old, and that everything between her and her home teacher happened before she was ten, when she was supposed to be just a child. But when we talked, there were a lot of things that happened in the present, could it be that she …… made it all up?”

Mrs. Kim had rushed out, shouting for someone, “Where’s Master? Master!”

Su Chunjun heavily patted Yang Yuyan’s shoulder.

Yang Yuyan was still a bit uneasy: “Shouldn’t I say ……”

Su Chunjun: “Maybe you saved her life. Otherwise she would have had to be taken along by the exiled nobles to escape.”
