Chapter 5: Chaotic Times乱世

The answer was no. Beautiful women faced peril during these turbulent times. My aunt''s extraordinary beauty and aloof pride had offended some people. Those same people began to make their move with the Cui family''s fall.

答案是否定的，乱世佳人雨打萍，姑姑的盛世美颜，姑姑的清高孤傲曾经就得罪了一些人。

现在崔家倒了，有些人就开始动弹了。

One day, dozens of sinister men stormed my courtyard, demanding to see my aunt, Butterfly.

一日，几十个凶神恶煞的人打进了我的院子，开口就要寻我的姑姑崔蝶。

强盗般的军阀世家暴发富看上了天香国色的姑姑，姑姑离开了，可是作为她，崔家的小小姐崔玉又该如何逃生呢？他们要强逼着她，要拉着去做小妾。

What was her status? Whose daughter was she?

她是什么样的身份？她是什么样的人家的女儿？
