82_82370 The eldest grandmother listened to Erya's words, and was silent for a long time without speaking, and she also digested Erya's mention in her heart. According to Peach's current age and reputation, it is difficult to find a good one at the doorstep, and only widowers, disabilities, and people who can't find a woman with a bad reputation will be willing to marry her, but such a family, Peach Niang would rather her daughter raise an old girl than want Peach to marry her.

But if you really want to marry to the Northland, you have to go so far, and it is rare to be able to come back once a year in the future, and it is estimated that Peach Niang is also reluctant. This Liu girl is right, when she arrives in the Northland, she will have the opportunity to marry well, but this peach and the peach mother may not be willing.

After the eldest grandmother digested Erya's mention, she said, "What you said is really good in my opinion, but just like what you are worried about, I'm afraid that Peaches and her mother may not be willing." Well, I'll go back and talk to them first, and let them think about it! ”

Erya was not happy to delay herself too much time because of the peach, the eldest grandmother wanted to leave, so she didn't stay, and stood up with the eldest grandmother, and sent the eldest grandmother outside the courtyard gate until she turned around.

Early the next morning, Xiaohu took Erya's list and went to the provincial capital to buy some items needed for the celebration banquet and wedding banquet. When the second half of the ring came back, there were more Zhu Jinling and a boy in his early tens.

Seeing Zhu Jinling and the boy, Erya was surprised and excited and asked, "You're back!" Is this your brother? I didn't expect you to finally find it! ”

Zhu Jinling smiled and burst into tears, nodding incessantly, while pulling her younger brother to kowtow to Erya.

Erya hurriedly supported Zhu Jinling and didn't let her do kowtow, a big gift that she still couldn't accept.

The reason why Zhu Jinling went out to find her brother and came back by herself was not something that Erya promised others. Didn't do it. At the beginning, Erya explained this matter to Wu Fenggang, but Wu Fenggang was looking for Zhu Jinling's younger brother while accepting orphans and outcasts everywhere, and the progress was very slow. Zhu Jinling was very anxious and didn't want to sit and wait at home, so she proposed to Erya to go out to find her brother by herself.

Erya understands her eagerness to find her brother, but she doesn't worry about her bumping into a girl everywhere. But. If she doesn't give her money because she's worried and goes out to find someone. She must have thought that she was crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. After thinking about it, I had to find Li Darttou to think of a way, if I could borrow someone from him to accompany Zhu Jinling out to find my brother. Although there are many people on my side, they have no social experience. Don't be at that time, if the person you are looking for is not found, and you lose yourself, it will be even more troublesome.

Li Darthead is indeed very powerful. Not only are they willing to lend someone to Erya, but also before they are ready to set off to find someone. Help to find out where the gambling house that sold people in the first place sold people? What kind of identity was it sold? This identity refers to: slave, play, and coward.

At that time, I don't remember who the gambling house sold to, but I remember that it must have been sold as a small man, because that identity was the most expensive.

Because he was sold as a small man. Li Darttou immediately had a general search focus, that is, the capital. Because in the capital, the small people in the south are the most popular. The selling price is also the highest. Zhu Jinling and Zhu Datou (real name Zhu Datong), the dart master designated by Li Darthead, listened to Li Darthead's analysis and guidance, and went directly to the capital. Erya is also generous. Give five thousand taels of silver tickets, and let them bring them. And he told again and again that when the money ran out, he came back to get the money, and then he continued to look for it.

It's just that Zhu Jinling and Zhu Datong only sent back news when they arrived in the capital, and there was no news after that. Erya was still thinking about how they were at the beginning, but then she gradually became very disappointed, thinking that this child was too ignorant, at least he should be separated for a period of time, report that he was safe or something, or how things were going, even if the simplest sentence was passed back, it could make people feel better.

After that, Erya stopped thinking about Zhu Jinling, but she didn't expect to come back suddenly today, and she really came back with her younger brother. Although Erya blamed the child for being ignorant, she was still glad that she was finally able to find her brother today, and she was willing to take her brother back here.

Zhu Jinling took a sip of the tea handed by the nurse and talked about their experience of looking for her younger brother in the capital: "When I arrived in the capital, my eyes were black, and I didn't know which one was right or which one. Fortunately, Brother Zhu often runs to the capital with the dart game, and he takes my family to find the Lingren Pavilion, whether it is bright or dark, we record them one by one in the booklet. Then, starting from Ming, we pretended to pour the night incense and looked for it one by one.

It wasn't until the end of last year that I finally found my brother at a famous house. It's also fortunate that in order to raise the boy to be delicate and weak, the Lingren Pavilion controls the food, and as a result, although he has grown up several years old, his appearance has not changed. As soon as I saw my brother playing the piano in front of the window, I immediately recognized him. ”

Zhu Jinling said this, put down the cup, smiled and patted the younger brother sitting beside him, and then said: "I didn't expect that when my younger brother looked up and saw me, he could recognize me immediately, I was dressed as a dirty half-old lady, I didn't expect my brother to recognize me." Zhu Jinling smiled and looked proud.

Her brother had been sitting upright, listening to his sister attentively, and when his sister patted him, his face was slightly red, and soon he was as usual again. Erya nodded secretly, worthy of being professionally trained, with this bearing and unshocked demeanor, it should not have been a teenager.

On the other hand, she also secretly admired Zhu Jinling and Zhu Datong's wisdom and ability to bend and stretch, which made her completely relieved of the dissatisfaction that this girl did not send a message to herself in the first place. So I couldn't help but ask, "Then why didn't you come back until now?" ”

At the mention of this, Zhu Jinling became even more proud, sat up straight and replied, "Hmph! At that time, I knew my brother's whereabouts, so I went back to pack up, took the silver ticket you gave, and went to redeem my brother. Who knew that the steward was too black-hearted, and when he heard that I was ransomed for my brother, he actually asked me for 10,000 taels of silver.

At that time, I was stupid, Brother Zhu said that he would send a letter back to you to borrow it, but I was not convinced, I just didn't want their black-hearted things to succeed. It's just that we can't steal it, and we can't rob it, and the only way is to let them take the initiative not to do it. Then I went back and worked all day and all night trying to figure it out. After thinking about it for two days, I finally came up with a trick! ”

Erya looked at Zhu Jinling's feeling that she was about to fly proudly, so she matched her mood and pretended to be very eager to ask, "What trick?" ”

Zhu Jinling smiled and asked: "Do you still remember the children that Brother Wu brought back, did you ask the doctor to do something for them?" ”

Do what? It is nothing more than to check the body, cure the sick, and boil some deworming potion for everyone who is not sick. But what can be done with this?

Erya was a little dazed. Zhu Jinling looked at the lady of the owner and didn't seem to think of it at all. It's even more proud.

"Lady of the proprietor, have you forgotten? After they are well recovered, you ask the doctor to give them cowpox? Zhu Jinling reminded mysteriously.

Erya suddenly realized. He pointed at Zhu Jinling and asked, "You used cowpox to make your brother contract smallpox?" But where did you get the smallpox pus? ”

Zhu Jinling replied with a smile: "This is not difficult, you can inquire casually, mainly because you don't know how to get cowpox." It took a lot of work. On the other hand, there is also my younger brother, who also has to find a way to make his body stronger. Otherwise, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it.

I thought of a way, so I managed to rent a small yard next to the Lingren Pavilion, bought a big cow, and asked a doctor to help me get cowpox. On the other hand, make some good food to nourish the body. Let Brother Zhu secretly give it to my brother to make up for it. After spring, we got the cowpox out because we didn't want the doctor to know what I was using. I sent him away first. Then I secretly planted cowpox on my brother, and I don't know if it was less. The first time he didn't send it. After waiting for several days without moving, I had to plant it again, this time to get more of it, but fortunately I had a fever the next day. ”

Listening to Zhu Jinling talking about her masterpieces with pride and boasting, Erya secretly calculated in her heart that such a smart, courageous and ruthless girl had to be kept. If such a talent were to flow away in his own hands, it would be a considerable loss.

"At first, the steward didn't care until the third day, when the doctor had made it clear that it was smallpox, the steward panicked and sent people everywhere to find me to pay for the ransom of my brother. After so much effort, how could I spend money in vain?!

I haven't come forward since I thought of that, they can't find me, and no one dares to touch my brother, let alone care about him. But I stared at it from morning till night, but I didn't see them send my brother out, so I was in a hurry! I thought about spreading the news that they had a child born with smallpox in the Lingren Pavilion.

That night, I finally saw them wrapped in a quilt and my brother secretly sent out of the city. They walked on the front foot, and Brother Zhu and I took my younger brother home on the back foot, and after raising him for about ten days, he was completely fine.

I originally wanted to hire a carriage to come back directly, but Brother Zhu said that the owner of the Lingren Pavilion was very powerful. I'm afraid that the person in charge will react to this incident and that someone is doing a ghost, and I'm afraid that we won't be out of the city yet, so we will be arrested.

Therefore, we pretended to be the farmers who bought night incense in the capital, and we went out of the city early in the morning with a load of dung. Because my brother was young, he didn't pick much, and he was almost interrogated by the soldiers at the city gate. When I was in a hurry, I pretended to be a vicious sister-in-law, and I was going back to beat him when I put down the dung pick, and I scolded him so much. Saying that he just eats and doesn't work, and then picks up such a little dung, it's all grinding, it's really a useless thing. The soldier listened to my scolding and seemed to sympathize with my brother, so he waved his hand and asked my brother to quickly pick up the burden and keep up. ”

Zhu Jinling is actually only thirteen or fourteen years old, although she is smart and quick, but she doesn't know how to hide a lot of feelings, for example, when she is talking about her great achievements, she is talking loudly, and her eyebrows are dancing with various expressions. Her brother had a very shallow smile on his face, and looked at his sister's various expressions slightly, he didn't make any additions or comments, but Er Ya still saw his admiration for his sister in his eyes. It seems that what Zhu Jinling said is true.

It's a pity that this girl was born in this era, if she was born in the anti-Japanese period, she would definitely be an underground party elite. (To be continued).
