Chapter 54 Elopement

Guo Qing looked at Yan Qingrui with a ghost look and stammered: "How do you know?"

Yan Qingrui said, "Although I have no knowledge, I also know that the five-spice rabbit meat and carp noodles are not something that poor families can afford. It is not that they can't afford rabbit meat and carp, but that they are not so particular. Of course, you may ask me why you are the chef's daughter. If you are a real chef, you will know how to remove the fishy smell of carp and how to make the rabbit meat until the heat is not over. And your hands are white, tender, delicate, and not rough. Only people with a superior and pampered life will have such hands."

She smiled and said, "As for why your father is a sixth-rank official, well, these snacks are only used by wealthy families to make late-night snacks or snacks. The daughters in the official family usually learn to make a few specialty dishes and pastries. If you only have the ingredients for these dishes in your kitchen, it means you can only make these. So, I guess your identity."

"Although you dress simply, you are very particular and have a calm expression, but you have a sadness that is not easy to detect in your eyes. When you are forced by Huang Lao San, you did not surrender. That is because you are dissatisfied and you still have pride in your body. You have disdain and grief in your eyes. If I didn't need to force Huang Lao San away just now, you would tear your face with him. Even though you know what the consequences of tear your face are, you are still unwilling to surrender, so I speculated about some of the situations in your family."

Guo Qing was stunned and said silly: "So, why do you know I'm elopement?"

Yan Qingrui said: "It's very simple. When you mention your mother-in-law, a trace of guilt flashed in your eyes. Why does a daughter-in-law feel guilty towards her mother-in-law? It's just that you feel sorry for her son. So I guessed two possibilities: you ruined his future; because of your reasons, he died."

"A wife will not destroy the future of your husband. Besides, you and your husband have a good relationship and will not do this unless you are forced to do it. Then, it is more appropriate to elope."

"The person who elopes must have anonymous identity, even if he is afraid of being revealed, let alone having a future. Because elopement makes life difficult, your husband must work hard to support his family, and then he died of overwork and illness."

"Don't ask me why I know this. Your husband must love you very much, so he is unwilling to let you do heavy work. He works hard to support his family, but he has to worry about being afraid and overwork has become a disease. It takes about three or four years to make a weak woman support a small shop and show up in public. It takes about two years to adapt. And a woman, if her life is good enough and she is not unwilling to do so, why should she elope?"

"You are now twenty-seven or eight years old. When you elope, you are twenty or two years old. At this age, a woman has already married. If you dare not sue the official, it must be that the official will not make decisions for you, or that you cannot make decisions for you. Or, once you sue the official, your identity will be exposed. If the imperial court's official rank is low, you will never have such influence. Since you are hidden in the capital, it means you are not from the capital. The current situation of Tianqian Kingdom is that the highest rank of foreign officials is the third rank."

Guo Qing looked at Yan Qingrui, and after a while, he found her voice and whispered: "Are you a human or a ghost?"
