Jia Ying is a lively and lovely little girl, and she is playing in the small garden as usual this day.

She wore a goose-yellow skirt, embroidered with orchids on the placket, she was still small, with two small buds on her head, a lock of short hair on her forehead, and her cunning eyes kept turning, and she looked clever and mischievous. Liu didn't worry about her alone, but she was really short of energy, so she ordered the two big girls to follow her, and she didn't leave anyone in every move.

Along the way, Jia Ying didn't see anyone, only the maids passing by, and the words "rockery" aroused Jia Ying's curiosity.

Rockery? Jia Ying bit her lip, my father won't let me go there to play.

And he ran away again.

The bright yellow autumn chrysanthemum is blooming brightly, a big butterfly is fluttering among the flowers, Jia Ying was fascinated by the big butterfly with great spirit, and wanted to pounce to play, so she ordered Zhu Ye to take a fan, tiptoe, and pounced on it.

The little girl was only four or five years old, although the jade snow was cute, but it did not help to flutter the butterfly, and one was not careful, so she let the big butterfly fly away. Jia Ying threw away the fan angrily and walked forward sullenly.

Suddenly, her little nose moved, and she followed the scent towards a path, and walked faster and faster, and trotted up.

The maid behind her kept shouting, "Big girl, run slower." ”

"Big girl, watch out for the stones." All of them were ignored by her.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and a few laurel plants came into view.

She stood under the tree and looked up, compared to adults, it was just a branch and leaf that could be picked by reaching out for her, but it was far, far away from her. Xiao Jia Ying looked back in embarrassment, not far away, looking at her green buds and vermilion leaves.

If she called the maid to come over and help her pick the flowers, Jia Ying pouted and thought, she was not tall enough, she would definitely call a group of people to come over, her mother said that her brother would come back today, she would definitely be very busy, and she couldn't make trouble for her mother.

But I really want it, the little osmanthus is fragrant and beautiful, and it can also be made into her favorite osmanthus cake...... Jia Ying thought of the osmanthus cake, her saliva flowed, her eyes struggled for a moment, and the heart of a foodie prevailed.

"Green Sprouts! Vermilion leaves! ”

The two maids kept carrying their hearts, and the older Zhu Ye feet were about to step out, ready to rush over as soon as the eldest girl had the signs of climbing the tree.

After the two came over, they listened to the eldest girl's request, and Zhu Ye was embarrassed.

The two glanced at each other, and Qingya took the initiative to say, "I'll go and ask someone to bring a ladder over." ”

Zhu Ye shook his head and said, "It's not good, it's not good, you look at the chrunk trunk is so thin, where can you forbid people to take a ladder to go up, I don't think this tree is very high, so, Qingya, you go to Ermen and call a taller woman to come over, bring a low stool, and step on it." ”

Jia Ying nodded again and again, clapped her hands and shouted, "This is a good idea, Sister Zhu Ye is so smart!" ”

Qingya went, Zhu Ye was not worried about Jia Ying running around, so he squatted down and told her a story: "Big girl, the slave was also very naughty when she was a child, climbing trees to pick fruits, going down to the river to fish, and never doing anything." As she spoke, she told Jia Ying an interesting story about her childhood.

Jia Ying's eyes widened in surprise, she didn't expect that the most calm Zhu Ye would also be so naughty. She asked with interest, "Is the outside world so fun?" So how did you get into the house? She was puzzled.

"Our family is in Shanxi, and the whole family escaped from the disaster that year," Zhu Ye said gratefully, "If it weren't for my wife's kindness and taking in our family, I'm afraid I wouldn't know where to beg for food at this time." ”

The little Jia Ying didn't understand what the catastrophe was, but she keenly noticed that Zhu Ye's mood was not very good, so she thoughtfully didn't ask. When she heard Zhu Yekua's mother's kindness, Xiao Jia Ying couldn't help but give her a big smile.

At this time, Qingya really came over with two mothers-in-law, stepped on a low stool and tried it, and found that it was just right, Jia Ying got her wish and held a hand of osmanthus flowers, and the careful Zhu Ye wrapped it in lotus.

Xiao Jia Ying hung her purse on her waist, and jumped towards the main house, on the way, she passed by a pavilion when she turned a corner, and heard two mothers-in-law rapping.

Jia Ying motioned to Qingya and Zhu Ye behind her not to lean over at the corner, and stuck her ears out to listen to what they had to say.

"I heard that Uncle Hu is coming back today, is it true?"

"This is still false, I heard a second-class maid who was waiting beside the eldest lady tell her mother, and the person who delivered the letter will be able to arrive this afternoon."

"If you want me to say, Uncle Hu is a showman, it's nothing, our Uncle Zhu is the one who can read! If it weren't for our wife not worrying about such a villain returning to Jinling, Uncle Zhu would have been a talent long ago. ”

Hearing this, Jia Ying's face turned white, she was small, but she also understood the truth of protecting her family, not to mention her brother who had always loved her.

She thought angrily, her brother is much more powerful than Brother Zhu! My brother will read to her! Will teach her to draw! And tell her stories! What a kraken's daughter, Lord Bai Xue, is much better than Brother Zhu, who can only be bored in the study!

The two mothers-in-law said some nonsense about Jia Hu again, Jia Ying was so angry that she was about to show up and scold the two mothers-in-law, but one of them said mysteriously: "Shh, can you be quiet, the second wife wants us to hide the things that we want to hide?" ”

Jia Ying saw that the other person sneakily glanced around a few times before he lowered his voice and whispered something.

Jia Ying pricked up her ears and only heard a few fragmentary words, "Second wife...... Stuff...... Rockery...... Uncle Hu ......", hearing that it was related to the eldest brother, Jia Ying couldn't help but be anxious, and accidentally stepped on something.

"Who?" A woman asked alarmedly, "Who's there?" ”

Jia Yingyan was full of breath, relying on her small person, and her whole body hid behind the pillar.

The mysterious mother-in-law saw a companion in the distance gesturing to her, nodded knowingly, made a voice like a sigh of relief, made a look, and said in a normal volume: "No one." Don't tell me about it, there's something buried in the rockery......"

The other mother-in-law received a look, and Nuo Nuo nodded, "That's terrible, if someone gets it, the second wife will also eat melons and fall ......" While saying, the two mothers-in-law also walked away.

Jia Ying was eavesdropping, and Qingya and Zhu Ye were not unconscious. The two thought to themselves, the eldest girl has always been a measured person, and other people's provocations are not fooled, not to mention that the eldest girl told not to startle the snake.

The two stayed where they were, staring at Jia Ying with only two pairs of eyes, afraid that something would happen to her under their noses.

Who knew that after a while, Jia Ying came over, with a worried little face, and said that she wanted to go to the rockery to have a look.

Zhu Ye hurriedly asked what happened.

Jia Ying said 1510.

Qingya was young and couldn't hold her breath, so she immediately said that she wanted to go to the rockery to explore.

Zhu Ye disagreed, and said: "Maybe those two mothers-in-law deliberately said it to the girl, so as to lead the girl to climb the rockery!" ”

Jia Ying retorted: "I follow the two of you all the time, let alone climbing the rockery, it's impossible to act alone!" ”

Qingya also said: "They treat the big girl as a fool!" I thought that the eldest girl heard something, so she went to the rockery by herself - where is the girl such a reckless person? ”

Jia Ying listened and squinted with a smile.

"But," Qingya said, "what if there is really anything on the rockery that is related to the safety of the uncle?" ”

Zhu Ye sternly stopped the two of them from being adventurous, and Qingya hurriedly begged for mercy: "The girl can't go, we have rough skin and thick meat, what's not to do?" It's better to look at the girl here, Zhu Ye, I'll climb the rockery! ”

Qingya tried her best to persuade her, it was not good to make trouble for her wife at this time, and she would have a lot of dreams at night, so she went to the top of the rockery to take a look, and the girl just watched from the sidelines, and nothing would happen.

Zhu Ye had to reluctantly agree.

Qingya climbed the rockery neatly in two or three times, and Xiao Jia Ying was envious for a while, but her father and mother told her that she must not climb the rockery, which is why the maid asked, she answered.

Hehe, she is not brainless, she doesn't need a maid, she has to go into battle in person, which is against her brother's usual teachings.

The rockery was built near the lake, and Zhu Ye didn't dare to let Jia Ying get too close to the lake, so he only stood far away on the other side of the rockery.

Qingya climbed up and cried out in surprise: "Girl, there is really something on it!" ”

Jia Ying was about to ask what it was, when suddenly Qingya screamed in panic, and the whole person fell from the rockery, and a large splash of water splashed on the lake.

Jia Ying was stunned, Zhu Ye hurriedly called loudly, but he didn't dare to leave, he looked around vigilantly, this piece of water vapor is very large, and it is next to the lake, and the servants and women are here to cool off in summer, but few people come in late autumn.

Zhu Ye was a little at a loss, she didn't know how to water, and hurriedly circled on the shore of the lake.

After all, Jia Ying didn't have anything to do, and she didn't know what to do for a while? Sister Qingya, who had been taking care of her, fell into the water like this. Xiao Jia Ying thought that her father had intimidated her and fell into the water, and she would never come back, so she cried out loud in fear.

The cry woke Zhu Ye up, she calmed down, and shouted loudly: "Qingya! You hold on a little longer! I'm going to call someone! ”

The water of this lake flows in from the middle of the rockery, the water near the rockery is extremely shallow, the head hit when the green shoots fell, and the whole person was unconscious.

Zhu Ye picked up Jia Ying with tears, shouted along the way to call someone to salvage Qingya, and ran to Liu's main house.

Soon, Qingya was salvaged, the blood stains on her head were frightening, Jia Ying insisted on coming over, Liu didn't allow it, and was taken to Jia Yu's study by the nurse to coax, Zhu Ye knelt in front of Qingya, crying bitterly.

Liu Shi was a little uneasy today, and was shocked when he heard the news that Qingya had fallen into the water, and now he was still uneasy when he looked at Qingya's tragic situation, until Mama Liu sent someone over and said that Jia Ying had fallen asleep crying, and she was watching it now, so she was better.

The doctor who had been invited from the street came over, and when he saw this, he shook his head first.

Zhu Ye and Qingya have worked together for two or three years, and they have long regarded her as their own sister in their hearts.

The doctor couldn't help but kowtow to her repeatedly, squatted down and reached out to touch the pulse of the green shoots lying on the ground, and still said regretfully: "It's hopeless, it's all out of gas." ”

Zhu Ye's whole person collapsed, shaking his head vigorously, unwilling to accept the facts.

Seeing this, Liu's pity and pity, these little girls are all watched by her, transferred and taught from the age of eleven or twelve, and they have been dealt with for a few years.

ordered someone to bury Qingya, and when Jia Hu came back and settled down, Zhu Ye also calmed down, and then asked her what was going on.

Jia Hu came back with Xiucai's fame, but he didn't see his mother and sister, it was messy everywhere, there were only grandfathers, Jia's mother and the second room in Rongxi Hall, and no one in the big room was there, so he asked uneasily: "Grandfather, what's wrong?" What about the father? ”
