128 missing
Xia Chengping and Zhao tried their best to break their heads, but they still couldn't stop Old Man Xia and Old Lady Qiao, Xia Hongxia's family and Xia Chengle's family.
In mid-August, Xia Chengping was broken and took the old house and the old children to Jianghuai.
Xia Cheng'an, the second room did not follow.
After planting the rice, Xia Cheng'an took over the carpentry work in the neighboring village, getting up early and returning to the two villages every day, Siniang was doing the work quietly, San Lang was obediently studying in the school, without Erlang's harassment, his grades were getting better and better, and he got a few good things.
Xia Chengan and Siniang were very pleased.
Saburo became more and more depressed.
Siniang once asked him, but he smiled and didn't answer, only saying that he didn't understand some of the things that Mr. said, for fear of disappointing his father and sister's expectations.
San Lang didn't want to say, so Siniang didn't ask anymore.
Until one day, San Lang was at home on vacation, she wanted to measure the size to make new clothes for San Lang, and heard him call his mother in the house, Si Niang stood at the door, and heard him call his mother in a low voice for more than 30 years.
Siniang had red eyes, bit her lip, and turned back to her room.
Jiang's life was not easy.
Although Xia Chengan did not give the Jiang family a letter of resignation, he had never seen it once after he had been sent home for so long, and he had never said anything to let her go back to Xia's house.
No matter how much mother-daughter affection is, no matter how deep the sister-brother relationship is, it is slowly consumed by life, especially when there is a younger brother and sister who can only see the relationship of interest in their eyes.
"I can't live this day! I sue you for your surname Jiang, if you don't send her back to Xia's house today, I'll take the child back to my parents' house! The choice is yours! Jiang's younger brother-in-law crossed her waist, pointed her fingers at Jiang's younger brother, and scolded, "I should serve my mother-in-law, what is it like to serve a married sister-in-law?" She has no divorce and two children and daughters, and she lives in our house all day long......"
"Child, mother, you be quiet, let your mother and eldest sister hear......" Jiang's younger brother went to pull Jiang's younger daughter-in-law, "Mother's body is not bad, when mother's body is better, mother will help you coax the child, you ......"
"When is it now? It's a mess at home, and I'm going to come back to cook when I'm done with the fields! Who do I owe?! I am still guilty of giving birth to this family...... Oh, my mother-in-law is sick...... Isn't there anyone who isn't sick? What do you pretend to be in the house every day...... I don't care, just one word, I'm happy to serve my mother-in-law, what is her daughter doing in her mother's house? Whoever loves to serve will serve, I will not serve! The voice of Jiang's brother and daughter-in-law became louder and louder, and she didn't care how uncomfortable Jiang's mother and daughter, who were separated by a wall, heard such words.
Jiang's face turned pale, and the hand holding the thin quilt trembled slightly because of the force, Jiang's mother looked at her daughter's appearance, feeling uncomfortable, scolding Xia Chengan and her son and daughter-in-law at the same time, struggling to get up, "With me one day, I think who dares to let my daughter out of the house?!" If you don't want to stay at my house, go back to your parents' house, who is rare......"
There was a sudden silence next door, and then the shrill cry of Jiang's brother and daughter-in-law sounded, "Did you hear that?" Where is this sister, there is a sister who provokes the relationship between her brother-in-law and mother-in-law like this? My mother-in-law is usually a good person, but now she is instigated by her to drive me back to my parents' house...... Don't stop me, I'll go! You let it go......"
Jiang felt his mother's body stiffen, and his movements to get up slowed down.
She also heard the sound of her arms as thin as mosquitoes and flies, from her younger brother who had been in pain since she was a child, "Mother has no intention...... Let the eldest sister go ......"
Jiang smiled sadly, she reached out to help her mother lie down again, and smiled at her mother, "Mother, she is right, I made my mother embarrassed, I will leave." ”
Jiang's mother stretched out her hand to pull Jiang's and said distressedly, "Where are you going?" Where can you go? ”
"I went back to Xia's house, Xia Chengan didn't divorce me, I still have a son and a daughter, he can't drive me away in front of the child......" Jiang smiled and persuaded his mother, but his eyes looked at the unknown front emptyly.
Jiang pushed open the door and walked out, called his younger brother out, and asked him to honor his mother in the future, live a good life with his brother and daughter-in-law, and didn't even eat dinner, and went out of his mother's house with two wrapped clothes.
Jiang's younger brother squatted in the yard with his head in his hands, Jiang's younger brother and daughter-in-law made dinner with a smile, and was smashed to the ground by Jiang's younger brother, "Are you happy to take my sister away?" You're happy! ”
"Feet on her, she doesn't walk, can I move? I haven't seen her go for a long time, who knows how she figured it out this time......" Jiang's brother and daughter-in-law pouted.
Jiang's younger brother glared at his daughter-in-law, "You still say ......?"
"If you don't say it, don't say it, if you don't eat and you're hungry, I'll bring food to my mother-in-law!" Jiang's younger brother and daughter-in-law glared at Jiang's younger brother, went back to the stove house and refilled a bowl of rice and brought it to the room for her mother-in-law.
Jiang's mother lay on the bed, her back to her daughter-in-law, and didn't say a word.
Jiang's brother and daughter-in-law returned to the house aggrieved and beat her, "You all blame me, is she living a good life like that for me?" Wu Niang, who was killed a few years ago, eloped with someone, and this time almost forced Si Niang to death, she said that she loved her daughter when she was a mother, and she used her daughter as a cash cow when she came, and ruined her good life, who is to blame? ! How well did her brother-in-law treat her before? She has the final say in everything at home, if she hadn't been forced to be ruthless, how could such an honest person as her brother-in-law take her back to her parents' house?! You don't blame her, you blame me?! Ok, good, good! You are a family, as long as I am not surnamed Jiang, just I am the outer skin, don't you just can't see her go? Yes! You chase her back, I'll go! I'll go back to my mother's house......"
Several children hugged her legs and told their mother, don't go, Jiang's younger brother sighed, Jiang's mother wiped her tears, and called her daughter-in-law to bring the food in.
The girl has already left, and if you send your daughter-in-law back to her parents' house, what will this family look like?!
Knowing that this was the mother who lowered her head, Jiang's brother and daughter-in-law didn't pretend anymore, and brought the rice into the house with a smile, and Jiang's younger brother also followed up to make amends, Jiang's mother sighed deeply, patted the hands of her daughter-in-law and son, and pressed a bowl of rice into it with guilt and distress for her daughter
And distressed pressed a bowl of rice into his stomach.
Jiang has been wandering outside for a few days, she wants to go to the town to find a job to support herself, but at her age, she still has to take care of food and housing, who wants it?
Jiang didn't find a job, starved for a few days, and unconsciously walked on the road to Jiuli Pavilion, but encountered the Li family's ox cart in the middle of the road, she covered her face and wanted to avoid it, but her eyes were dark and she fainted.
When he woke up, he was already in the Xia family's old house.
The lights were lit in the house, and the bean-sized flames were blown around by the wind blowing through the cracks in the door, and there was a conversation between a man and a woman, "Dad, Dr. Zhang said that my mother was hungry...... I cooked and waited for my mother to wake up and give her a ......"
"Well, let her go early tomorrow morning......"
“…… Let my mother stay......"
"No! She has harmed you again and again, leaving her down to protect her, how to harm you and San Lang next time......" Xia Chengan's voice had a firmness and ruthlessness that he had not had before.
What Siniang said, Jiang didn't hear it, and the voices of the two blew to the other side with the turn of the wind.
The yard was very quiet.
I don't know how long it took, Siniang's voice sounded again, "Dad, I don't care, with my father here, my mother won't exchange me for silver again...... Saburo misses his mother very much...... A home without a mother is somewhat incomplete...... Dad, why don't you let your mother stay? ”
Xia Chengan did not speak.
Jiang leaned over to listen, but the only sound in the courtyard was the rustling of leaves.
"Daddy......" Siniang still had to say something, Xia Chengan pulled the wooden pier and got up, "It's not early, go to sleep." ”
Jiang heard the door next door being pulled open and shut.
Siniang sighed, cleaned up the yard and returned to the house with food.
Jiang pretended to be asleep.
Siniang turned on the lamp and did needlework at the end of the kang far away from Jiang's.
The Jiang family looked at Siniang in the flickering firelight.
Siniang and Erniang and Sanniang are people of the same year, Erniang and Sanniang are both married, but Siniang doesn't even have a person to say goodbye.
If Siniang had heard her marry Qiao Mai, maybe she would have had children by now......
Jiang shook his head, in exchange for Siniang's raised eyes, her eyes were extremely light, and she smiled, "Mother, are you awake?" Get up and have some food. ”
Siniang put the rice on the small table, brought it over, sat back in her original position, lowered her head and carefully did the work in her hands.
Jiang opened her mouth, wanted to say something, her stomach grunted at the right time, she couldn't care about anything, grabbed the chopsticks and gobbled up the meal, rolled her eyes when she was choked in the middle of eating, and screamed a few times Siniang, Siniang got up to help her pour water and help her smooth her back......
There were warm tears in Jiang's eyes, and she grabbed Siniang's arm that wanted to retreat, "Siniang, my mother is wrong!" Mother will never force you again! Tell your father, will you let your mother stay? ”
She said humiliatingly, "Your aunt kicked my mother out of her mother's house, and my mother is already homeless...... My mother has been hungry for several days, and she wants to come back to see you and your brother...... Mother, I'm sorry for you......"
Siniang looked at the Jiang family with complicated eyes, looked at her own mother who had always been pretentious and smart, and looked down on a few concubines, her eyes drooped slightly, and fell on the hand of the Jiang family holding her arm, and smiled faintly, "Mother, I persuaded my father...... You also know Dad's temper, don't look back if you recognize it, I ......"
"You can do it, you must have a way! As long as you tell your father that you don't blame your mother, and then tell your father about your mother's miserable situation, your father will definitely be soft-hearted...... Siniang, you go and beg your father, let your mother stay, okay? My mother swears that I will treat you well in the future and find you a good family......"
Jiang's words didn't speak, Siniang pulled back her hand in horror, Jiang's heart hurt, and hurriedly added, "Your father will not agree if you don't nod your father, you must not agree!" Siniang, you help your mother beg your father...... Your brother doesn't have a mother, there will be no way to test his fame in the future, his life will be ruined, do you want him to live the same hardships as your father haha? The gentleman said that your brother is very good at schoolwork......"
Siniang agreed to the Jiang family to intercede with Xia Chengan.
This time, she said that she moved Xia Chengan to let the Jiang family stay, on the premise that the Jiang family was not allowed to interfere in the family affairs of the two children! Don't point fingers at anyone in your family!
Jiang naturally agreed.
In the next half month, he also did quite well, getting up early every day to make breakfast for the father and daughter, and making dinner early in the evening, slowly, Xia Chengan also said a word or two of gossip to Jiang.
Siniang has always been far away from the Jiang family.
Xia Chengan saw it in his eyes, and in the middle of the night, he didn't know how much he sighed.
San Lang came home from vacation, saw the Jiang family, and smiled happily for several days, and even said many words of thanks to Siniang, Siniang touched his brother's head, but he couldn't laugh.
On the day when Yao Niang and Zou Pengcheng's family affairs were settled, Siniang looked at the room where the third room had lived for a long time.
The day before Yao Niang's wedding, Si Niang went to add makeup and saw Yao Niang's dowry.
There are houses, fields, head and face jewelry, and cloth of all colors, which are sixteen lifts.
Siniang listened to Banniang's chatter about the process of Yao Niang's acquaintance with her future husband, looked at Yao Niang's happy face with longing, looked at the smile on the bottom of the eldest uncle's eyebrows, and watched the family be happy from the inside out.
What Yao Niang gave was a purse embroidered with pomegranates, which was made of the best satin corners she had saved for a long time, and Yao Niang liked it very much and thanked her again and again.
Banniang sent a hairpin with a transparent green body, and Eleven Niang gave a bracelet with a strange style, she called that thing a bracelet, and even Xiao Twelve pinched a few gauze flowers that looked like real flowers to add makeup to Yao Niang......
Yao Niang got married, and it is one of the most beautiful in Jiuli Pavilion.
The future husband came to marry in person, and the red carpet was spread from the front of her house to the entrance of the village, and the whole village ran to watch.
Siniang was depressed for a few days, took a big job embroidering screens, stayed in the embroidery workshop all day, only came back early and late to eat and sleep, and the conversation with Jiang was limited to, "Mother, I'm leaving." ”。”
"Mother, I'm full."
"Mother, I'm asleep."
This qiē was seen by Xia Cheng'an.
……
Xia Chengan picked a day, went to the town, went to Yanghuai Hutong, and met Xia Chenghe and Luo.
"Help Siniang with her family?" Xia Chenghe was surprised.
Roche also looked surprised.
Xia Chengan nodded, "You also know the Jiang family...... It's not reliable, it's not easy for me to come forward as a man to do things for Siniang Zhang Luo, she sees that she is getting older, and it will be difficult to marry if she doesn't look for it......"
Xia Chenghe and Luo glanced at each other, not knowing how to refuse.
The Jiang family has always looked down on their three rooms, if they knew that they would say goodbye to Siniang, this would ......
"I don't ask for anything from the door, as long as the child is pragmatic and hardworking, the family is harmonious, and it doesn't matter if the family is poor......" Xia Chengan said, there was a little pleading in his eyes.
In the end, the couple agreed.
After sending Xia Chengan away, Luo sighed, "This is a trouble...... Her father, the Zou family boy is the one who has a crush on Yao Niang, where can we go to find a Zou family boy for Siniang? ”
Xia Chenghe also sighed, "We have been in Jiuli Pavilion before, where do we know anyone?" When I opened the store, I knew some regular customers, but I didn't find anyone who had a boy of the same age as Siniang......"
The couple was at a loss.
Xia Chengxiang and the Li family knew, sighed for a while, and promised to help pay attention, and if there is a suitable one, they will tell Siniang.
After harvesting the rice, the days soon entered December, and the weather was cold.
Mo Shouchen sent a letter back, saying that the young master of the Pei family chased Jianghuai and wanted to take the third miss of the Mo family back to Beijing, and the third miss of the Mo family married Su Changting in a fit of anger! The young master of the Pei family led a big person to make a big fuss, injured Su Changting, and was seriously injured by the third lady of the Mo family who shot three arrows in a row with an arrow crossbow.
Without waiting for Eleven Niang's heart, the second letter was delivered immediately.
The relationship between the Pei family and the Mo family was tense, and on the thirteenth day of the lunar month, the Mo family announced that the third lady of the Mo family was seriously ill and died, and she had been mourned.
Eleven Niang wrote a reply, but the letter had not been sent out, and the third letter came.
Chu Yan, the fourth prince with the pseudonym Lin Jue died of illness on the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and Emperor Shunping mourned and gave the four princes the title of King Jing and was buried according to the specifications of the prince. The courtiers were in an uproar, and the books were inappropriate, and they were rejected by Emperor Shunping one by one, and the ministers of Chu Ye, the third prince, were admonished, and Emperor Shunping smashed his head with Yugui and deposed as a commoner, and this matter came to an end.
Emperor Shunping ordered the whole country to mourn, and the national mourning was 100 days, and no firecrackers, no marriages, and no entertainment were allowed within 100 days.
Chu Yan was mourned after 7749 days, and Emperor Shunping was seriously ill, fainting, and unconscious.
Several princes returned to Beijing one after another, and the fifth prince Chu Qiao got the secret edict of Emperor Shunping, and rushed back to the capital from the border pass overnight, and was chased and killed thirty-six times on the way, and brought back three hundred elite soldiers and cronies, and only thirteen people remained in the capital!
Eleven Niang read the letter, and her heart couldn't be calm for a long time.
She burned the reply, thought for a long time and wrote a second reply, but she didn't want to wait for it to be sent, and the fourth letter came!
This letter, with the news she wants!
The letter said that the five princes left the border pass, but a few days later, Xue Ye was led out by a trap, trapped in a cave for ten days, and was punished as a deserter.
Shi Niang's heart, which almost stopped, came alive again, and she gasped heavily.
Yan Xia said, "Young Master Xue has a big life, and he will be fine." ”
Eleven Niang smiled and nodded, but the smile couldn't reach the bottom of her eyes.
She asked Yan Xia to send the second reply, but she didn't bring anyone, and went to Fengyuemen alone.
When I came back, it coincided with the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and Qingshui Town, which should have been lively, was silent due to the national mourning, and the white lanterns were hung on the streets, no longer the lively scene of previous years.
Eleven Niang walked on the deserted streets, and unconsciously walked to the place where she guessed the lantern riddle last year.
She remembered that the lantern was very bright that night, and the cheeks of the people who took it were red, and it was very beautiful!
The eyes of the person who shines will shine, and it is very beautiful!
Eleven Niang pursed her lips, and there was a shallow smile in her eyes that she didn't notice.
That silly boy will shine in his eyes whenever he looks at himself.
She walked all the way, and walked uncontrollably to the small courtyard where Xue Ye had rented before, and the courtyard was rented by Eleven Niang, and because it had been uninhabited for a long time, it had fallen a thick layer of dust.
The big trees in the yard, with their branches rising above the roof, were covered with heavy snow, and they looked like they were barren.
Eleven Niang was wrapped in a cloak, her chin rubbed slightly against the fluffy piping, and she looked at a certain position next to the big tree.
There, the silly boy likes to put up a table, read calligraphy and paintings, and study martial arts......
For the first time there, Eleven Niang felt that the original black ink could paint a painting with such a beautiful artistic conception, and it turned out that she was so captivating in his eyes......
Eleven Niang stood under the tree for a long time, until the snow covered her shoulders, she raised her head in a trance, looked at the full moon at the top of the tree, and suddenly laughed, she actually missed that stupid boy so much?!
The boy with dark eyes that glows when he sees her......
Eleven Niang stretched out her hand, exhaled deeply, reached out to catch a handful of snow, looked at the full moon, and whispered, "Xue Ye ......"
In a distant place, there was a long figure looking at the full moon at the same time, echoing the voice, "Eleven Niang......"
