Chapter 10 Grandma Zhang
Grandma Zhang was immersed in sadness, and Zhu Yan was thinking about her life experience when she heard Xiaobao's voice coming: "Sister Zhu, Sister Zhu, someone is looking for you!" ”
It turned out that someone knocked on the door again, and Xiaobao, who was playing by the door, stepped forward and opened the door. The person who came was the little guy in the Lu Mansion, but Zhu Dalang finally found that Zhu Yan was gone, thinking that she had said that the grandparents and Xiaobao in Qingbai Lane had told Lu Xiulian and sent someone over to see if it was here.
"Miss Zhu, our eldest lady is looking for you, why did you come here? It's hard for us to find it for a while. ”
There was resentment in the little girl's tone, after all, no one wants to come out to find someone when it's almost night, and when the time comes, how troublesome it will be to make a lantern when they go back. Fortunately, when he came over, he asked someone, and confirmed that Zhu Yan was indeed going in the direction of the previous Zhu family, and then remembered the Zhang family next door that the young lady's husband had mentioned, so he came over and knocked on the door to try, but he didn't expect it to be here.
Zhu Yan didn't want to be polite to him, and if he was polite to him, he thought he had a lot of face!
She said to him directly: "You go back and tell my father, I will rest here tonight, I will stay for a few days, and when he is going to the capital, I will go back again, so that he doesn't have to worry." By the way, you can go and bring me a few changes of clothes today, and go with your eldest lady. She'll give it to you. ”
The obvious resentment on the little girl's face made Zhu Yan sneer: "If you don't say it, then wait for me to sue your eldest lady in the future." You know, I'm the one who dares to fight with Lu Xiulin. ”
Zhu Yan threatened him slightly, for fear that he would disobey him. Because she suddenly thought that she came out with some silver, but it was not enough to spend at all, and it would cost money to go to Jincheng when Jiang Li arrived in the future, even if she arrived in Jincheng safely, it would still cost money, and at this time, there might not be someone surnamed Xue who gave her money. Besides, even if others give it to herself, she doesn't dare to accept it. That time I would accept it, but it was also because the person's attitude was a little tough, and the person was still good-looking.
So it is necessary to save some money to spend, so it is better to save the money for clothes, it just so happened that the Lu family sent someone to find him, so he simply asked people to send it over, with an excuse to stay here for a few days, and he was not afraid that Lu Xiulian would not give him clothes, this is Qingbai Lane, where there is a lot of gossip!
Even if there are only one or two pieces, it is enough to replace them yourself. If he really doesn't give it, then Zhu Yan can't do anything, but he can still confuse Zhu Dalang and Lu Xiulian, and they won't know that they will leave tomorrow. Hey, count it all in one fell swoop. After becoming a lifting lady, the family also bought slaves, and she still made it quite easy to call people.
Frightened by her obvious threat, the little girl nodded again and again, and trotted out of Qingbai Alley, causing a cloud of smoke.
Zhu Yan closed the door and said secretly: "Running quite fast!" It's best to get it early tonight. ”
At this time, Xiaobao asked on the side, "Sister Zhu, are you going to stay at my house for a few days?" ”
Zhu Yan was stunned, how could she be seen by Xiaobao, and when the time came, she knew that she was lying. Alas, I had to coax the child.
"Hee-hee, I lied to him, who told him to talk to me so unhappily just now. Let him run more tonight, and he will remember it for a long time next time. Your sister Zhu is very powerful! ”
Xiaobao nodded confusedly.
Grandma Zhang's family has already had dinner, and the small family is reluctant to consume more oil for oil lamps, so the three of them live in the yard and chat, Xiaobao can still tell stories when he goes to school, although there are many mistakes, but Grandma Zhang listens very happily, and laughs from time to time. Her grandson is so filial and smart, how can she be unhappy?
After waiting for an hour or so, the knock on the door sounded again, and sure enough, it was the little guy from before, and there was a maid who came with him. The maid carried a lantern, and the maid held a package in her hand.
Seeing that it was Zhu Yan who came to open the door, the maid was a little unhappy and gave her the package.
"Here you go, our eldest lady specially ordered it to you."
Zhu Yan didn't care about her cold face, anyway, they, the Lu family, only recognized the people of the Lu family as the master, even if it was Zhu Dalang, she rarely moved, and she didn't have anything to care about. Anyway, the thing was already in his hands, and it also provided a cover for his departure, so that he would not be discovered so early.
If you leave by yourself, the Lu family shouldn't do anything to the Zhang family, it's all from the neighbors, well, as long as many people see themselves leaving Qingbai Lane tomorrow, it will be better.
Hey, it seems that tomorrow happens to be every 9th and 19th of May, and it is a market three times a month, and everyone gets up early at that time, so that they are not afraid that the Lu family will come to find trouble. The people in Qingbai Lane love each other very much, and she was not less taken care of when she used to set up a stall. Even if she wanted to leave, she didn't want to cause trouble for the Zhang family.
Zhu Yan carefully tied the door, no one will go out again today, and no one should come again when it is already dark, so it is better to lock the door.
She explained to Grandma Zhang, and the Lu family sent her something and put it in Xiaobao's house.
I have already said before, let Grandma Zhang sleep with Xiaobao tonight, and Zhu Yan will sleep in Xiaobao's house.
The courtyard of the Zhang family is slightly larger than the previous Zhu family, and there are two more houses, which are prepared for Xiao Baocheng to marry his daughter-in-law in the future, unlike the Zhu family, which has a thin population, and the money is spent less and less, and there is no extra money to build a house.
Grandma Zhang saw that the Lu family really sent something over, so she put down her snack a little, and it seemed that Miss Lu was not to the point of being unkind.
The Lu family environment is good, and when the time comes, Zhu Yan will become a young lady and someone can serve her. She had thought before that when Zhu Yan grew up, she could let Xiaobao marry Zhu Yan. The two families know each other, and the two are also childhood sweethearts, and it is also reassuring to get married. I didn't expect things to get so fast, and the relationship between Zhu Yan and Xiaobao in the future will be far away.
However, Grandma Zhang was not too sentimental, she was very happy as long as Xiaobao was by her side. Xiaobao's father and mother went to the county seat, and there were only two people in the family, she and Xiaobao, and sometimes they still felt that the home was too quiet.
Xiaobao likes Zhu Yan's sister very much, and the three of them talk and joke together, and time passes quickly.
Grandma Zhang then said, "Xiao Yan, go to bed early tonight and get a good night's sleep." ”
Zhu Yan responded, and first helped Grandma Zhang to the inside, and saw that Grandma Zhang had waved her hand to let her go back first, so she left a little reluctantly.
Back in the bedroom, she took out the clothes in the package to check, and actually saw a silver ticket of fifty taels, which made Zhu Yan wonder: What does this mean?
She naturally didn't know that in order to show her virtuous and loving kindness, Lu Xiulian did not hesitate to take out fifty taels from the account.
No matter what Lu Xiulian thought, she actually gave her money, and Zhu Yan accepted it, and she wouldn't be stupid enough to say that she didn't want her money, if she really wanted to do it, it would be stupid.
Did she want me to stay in Tsing Bai Lane for a few more days? Zhu Yan thought to himself. Unfortunately, the man was about to miscalculate.
After Zhu Yan washed, he went to bed, scattered the simple hairstyle, and the long hair that grew to his waist fell down, but unfortunately because of some malnutrition, it was not very refreshing and smooth, and it was a little rough.
Zhu Yan stroked his hair, feeling the rough touch, thinking of Lu Xiulin's black and bright hair, that is a real carefree person, and he is always a person in this world.
A dreamless night.
Zhu Yan woke up very early in the morning, and he always couldn't control his subconscious, and he gave himself psychological hints. She still remembers that a long, long time ago, she could sleep lazily often, and she could get up whenever she wanted, and her parents would bring her food.
Grandma Zhang is an elderly person and woke up even earlier.
By the time Zhu Yan packed up herself and came out with the package, Grandma Zhang was already sitting on a rocking chair in the yard.
"Xiao Yan, you ...... Is this the time to go? ”
Zhu Yan was a little surprised, "Grandma Zhang, why did you get up so early!" Let Xiao Yan be shocked! ”
Zhu Yan actually told Grandma Zhang last night that she was going to leave this morning, Grandma Zhang was mentally prepared, but as her memory grew, she slowly lost some things.
Zhu Yan could understand this feeling, and knew that there was still something he hadn't done, but he just couldn't remember it. That was also a long time ago, she was an old lady with both children and daughters, and she was the envy of countless people.
When she is older, any bad symptoms will follow, such as urine ** or something, she still remembers that there was a noble lady in the past, and when she was older, she loved to dress up like her sister, and once she laughed too happily, but she involuntarily collapsed, which made her a laughing stock later.
She came to Grandma Zhang, hammered her back, and said with a smile: "Yes, Xiao Yan left this morning." Isn't it a market today, I want to go and visit it, and I won't be able to see it again! ”
Grandma Zhang also laughed: "Yes, every time I pass by the place where you used to put things for sale, I remember that you used to shout and sell things there." I really wronged you a few days ago, but fortunately now the bitterness is over. You must have a good life in the future, so that I will rest assured of Grandma Zhang! ”
Zhu Yan listened to her words and thought of Grandma Zhu, and the feelings in her heart were also complicated. It was true that she had a very hard time before, but those days made her feel very alive.
What's so good about being locked up in a deep boudoir compound? It's not about relying on someone else for everything. Even eating and drinking has to be faked, and she has to stay under other people's roofs, and be ridiculed by others, this is not the life she wants to live.
To leave, to leave!
Zhu Yan was still very grateful for Grandma Zhang's care, and said to Grandma Zhang with a smile: "Grandma Zhang, don't worry, I will be fine." Grandma, you also have to take care of your body, and when Xiao Yan comes back from the capital to see you in the future! ”
Grandma Zhang smiled and nodded.
Zhu Yan took the package and walked slowly to the alley, she didn't want to turn back, but she couldn't help but turn back. Grandma Zhang's familiar face was drowned out by the morning mist as she walked farther and farther. She vaguely heard Xiaobao's voice saying, "Where is Sister Zhu?" But he still shook his head with a smile, thinking, Xiaobao shouldn't have woken up so early.
Today, it is really a market, the southeast corner of Qingbai Lane is very lively, a group of people are bustling, and you can see people you knew before. A wave of heat surged into Zhu Yan's eyes, and this lively and gentle atmosphere of the countryside will slowly move away from it in the future.
When she walked out of the alley completely, she turned around and said goodbye in silence. She once wanted to stay here for the rest of her life, but the time is not with her, since she decided to choose to leave, she is not a person who likes to procrastinate.
