    "As I walked along, I saw people all dressed up inside and outside the house. It was so beautiful." Yu Zhihui looked at the decorated house with a look of nostalgia, "When I was a child, I liked to hang out with Fang Lin and the others on the escalator.  I was playing, I grabbed the handrail and slid all the way down, and I almost broke my arm."

    "Ms. Yu lived in Rong Mansion?" Feng Shizhen asked.

    Yu Zhihui said: "When I was twelve years old, my father was ill and my mother couldn't take care of him, so my aunt took me over and lived with the Rong family for a year. Later, my father died of illness and I was taken back."

    Yu Zhihui looked around at the exquisite furniture and luxurious furnishings of the Rong family, with an expression of envy and yearning that could not be concealed.  The Yu family is getting worse every year.  She must have missed that period of pampered life in the Rong family, like a wealthy lady.

    "There have been fewer visits to the Rong family over the years, but it still looks like it hasn't changed at all." Yu Zhihui murmured, "Fang Hua and I are still hiding in that big chest of drawers. We even ran into the wine cellar.  To play, I secretly drank the red wine collected by my aunt. In his early years, my aunt was very kind to me, and would drive us to Caohejing to hunt wild ducks. Fang Lin and I also picked up a puppy, but unfortunately later  Died of illness."

    Feng Shizhen smiled slightly: "No wonder the two Miss Rong and Miss Yu have such a good relationship."

    Yu Zhihui smiled bitterly: "I am three years older than them. When they were young, they listened to me the most and followed me everywhere. Later, they have grown up and have less contact than before."

    Especially after Rong Fanglin fell in love with Yang Xiucheng, he had obvious hostility towards Yu Zhihui.  The Yu family fell into decline, and Yu Zhihui became a head shorter than her cousin, becoming a poor relative.  She disliked coming to Rong's house even more.

    "You must miss this place very much." Feng Shizhen said with a gentle voice, "When you were most helpless, the Rong family took you in. This place is equivalent to your second home. Besides, the Rong family seems to always be able to provide you with  It gives people a very safe feeling. It is like an indestructible castle that can block any wind and rain. No matter how the world changes outside, the leisurely and comfortable life here will never change."

    Every word of Feng Shizhen was like a hammer hitting Yu Zhihui's heart.  She looked dazed and nodded subconsciously, feeling very moved.  It is undeniable that in her eighteen or nineteen-year-old life, the year she spent in the Rong family was the most beautiful time.

    "There is always music floating here." Yu Zhihui fell into sweet memories, "There is always the fragrance of pastries and flowers in the air, and everything is so clean, tidy and quiet. My aunt took us to visit Yong'an Department Store, and the clerks always bowed.  Service from beginning to end. The Rong family always drives the most luxurious cars and uses the best cooks. The ladies wear the most fashionable American fashions of the season"

    As for the Yu family, the whole family was squeezed into a small three-story house in Shikumen. Sisters-in-law gave birth one after another, the children chased the dogs all over the floor, and there were even three or four old mothers crammed into the pavilion.  Yu Zhihui's tuition fees for school were entirely sponsored by Mrs. Yung.  She went to live on campus, and her room was used as a bedroom for her nieces.  The brothers talk about making a fortune all day long, but their investments always fail, and their family fortunes get smaller and smaller.

    When Yu Zhihui returned home this time, Mrs. Yu revealed to her daughter while she was ill that her sons had used the dowry left by Yu¡¯s father to their daughter to do business.  Yu Zhihui went to her eldest brother to ask for the dowry back, but her eldest sister-in-law asked her face to face: "My sister-in-law wants a dowry, so why not find someone who is willing to marry you first and bring it home! Now that we have met my brother-in-law-to-be, we have a reason to prepare it for you, right?"  "

    When the news came that the Rong family was clearing out the servants, Mrs. Yu said to Yu Zhihui: "The matter between you and Xiucheng should be finalized as soon as possible. If you delay it any longer, I'm afraid even he won't be willing to marry you."

    Yu Zhihui is a smart girl, and of course she can understand the stakes.  She has a good impression of Yang Xiucheng as a childhood sweetheart, but has no love for him.  She had previously refused to agree to Yang Xiucheng's proposal because she still wanted to marry someone with better conditions.  But seeing that Yang Xiucheng was about to cut off the relationship with the Huang family, but there was no other whereabouts on her end, she really should have made a decision early and grabbed every man to count.

    ¡°After all, Yang Xiucheng can earn thousands of dollars a year as a manager in the Rong Family Firm. In the eyes of ordinary women, he is already a very sought-after husband-in-law.

    "Miss Yu, is there anything unhappy?" Feng Shizhen asked with concern, "Is your father's illness serious?"

    Yu Zhihui forced a smile: "Fortunately, it's an old rheumatism. I justhas Miss Feng seen Mr. Yang recently?"

    Feng Shizhen said: "He will come to Rong Mansion sometimes. Stop quarreling, right?"

    Yu Zhihui smiled bitterly: "It would be better if it was really a quarrel. It's been a week since I returned to Shanghai, and he didn't even come to see me."

    "Mr. Yang has been very busy recently." Feng Shizhen said, "Young MasterPeople think that a poor and miserable life is what they want.  "

    What she said was not unreasonable.  Feng Shizhen couldn't refute and turned around to pick out clothes.

    Feng Shizhen has been thinking about Sun Shaoqing and wonders if she is okay in Japan.  However, with Sun Shaoqing's perseverance and intelligence, even if he endures some hardships, he will persevere and live a wonderful life.  If Sun Shaoqing heard Yu Zhihui's comments about her, he would probably just chuckle and say, "A summer insect cannot talk about ice."

    "Ms. Feng, what do you think of me wearing this?" Yu Zhihui held a gold-red dance skirt in her hand, which was very gorgeous.  She usually wears simple clothes, but she also likes bright colors.  In the past, I dressed plainly and elegantly to fit in with my image of a scholarly and down-and-out lady.

    "I remember that Fang Lin's dance skirt this time was red." Feng Shizhen said.

    Yu Zhihui couldn't stand the contrast with Rong Fanglin, so she reluctantly put the skirt back.  She felt very unhappy when she thought that as a cousin, she had to avoid her cousin.

    "If her father hadn't died and her brothers hadn't ruined their family, their Yu family would still be a serious, scholarly and prestigious family.  How could a young lady from a nouveau riche like Rong Fanglin be qualified to compare with her?  #####(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
