Chapter 21 Traveling Together
The next day, Zhang Lingxi asked Tuesday to bring a message to Zhao Ze, telling him that Zhao Jiarou had sent a letter, everything was fine, and there was no need to worry about it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Hearing the news, Zhao Ze felt more flustered than when he didn't know how his little aunt was.
He thought about it, but he still couldn't hold back, and went to Zhang Lingxi again.
Qi Yang was sitting and talking with Zhang Lingxi holding hands.
Zhao Ze came over, Qi Yang didn't blame him anymore for coming to Sister Xi but didn't care about her words, Zhao Ze had already reassured her.
"Sister Xi, let's talk first, I'll go back." Qi Yang said hello to the red-faced Zhao Ze with a smile, and then got up to say goodbye with a sense of humor.
Zhang Lingxi pulled her to her side and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave, don't you play with me?" ”
"You have something important to say, I'll follow something." Qi Yang still has to go.
Zhang Lingxi and Zhao Ze glanced at each other.
Zhao Ze took the initiative to say: "I came to ask about my little aunt. Aren't you having a good time with her, if you care, come and listen to it, let's get ideas together. ”
Zhang Lingxi and Zhao Ze both took care of Qi Yang's emotions, making her ashamed of her previous behavior.
But she really cared about her aunt's situation, so she didn't say kind words to Zhao Ze and stayed to discuss with them.
In fact, Qi Yang came over today, mainly for Zhao Jiarou's business. She heard that Zhao Jiarou was missing today, so she hurriedly came to Zhang Lingxi here.
Zhao Jiarou actually ran out of the house secretly, and hid from her that she came to visit Sister Xi. Qi Yang thought that Sister Xi was also deceived by Zhao Jiarou, and was worried that Sister Xi was in a hurry, and worried about Zhao Jiarou's safety, so he came in and woke her up despite Zhang Lingxi still asleep, and talked until now.
Zhang Lingxi has already told Qi Yang about the cause and effect.
"I'm afraid we can't make a long story short, you wait, I'll go and let Emei prepare some tea to come in." Zhang Lingxi said and went out.
Qi Yang took the opportunity to ask, "Are you also involved in this matter?" ”
Zhao Ze shook his head and nodded again.
Qi Yang snorted impatiently and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Zhao Ze said: "I'm already an insider, so I can be regarded as involved." ”
After speaking, Zhang Lingxi came in with Emei and put tea and snacks on the table.
"You're here for your little aunt's business?" Zhang Lingxi asked.
Zhao Ze snorted.
Zhang Lingxi looked at Qi Yang and said, "I just gave you a rough idea just now, if you are willing to listen, I will tell you in detail now." ”
Zhao Ze and Qi Yang nodded tacitly.
Since this happened, they have been in the clouds.
"Sister Yang shouldn't know, you know. Your little aunt was at the age of discussing marriage, and she came to my house with Mrs. Ji. Although she is shy, but with Min Niang and Xi Niang and them, Jiarou quickly played with us. At that time, someone suggested going rafting, and we went together, but when we got off the boat, Jiarou fell into the water. Zhang Lingxi recalled what happened back then.
Qi Yang's eyes widened and he waited for the following.
"At that time, it was my brother-in-law Zhang Lingzhe who jumped into the water to save Jiarou, and Jiarou asked me to send a letter to Brother Zhe in order to thank him. The fruit you see now is the cause that was sown. ”
"Even so, Aunt Jiarou is too bold. Don't say anything about the fornication letter, it's even back..."Qi Yang was in front of Zhao Ze, it was difficult to speak.
"In fact, it's just a pair of infatuated lovers, but they were forced to be cornered and chose the most bumpy road." Zhang Lingxi understands the two people very well.
"Even so, Sister Xi, you shouldn't help them. In case the two of them don't get good in the future, don't you want to blame you, why should you meddle in your affairs. Qi Yang said in his heart: "I guess if it weren't for you, the two of them wouldn't have been able to go." All you hope now is that you didn't mess it up. ”
Zhang Lingxi smiled bitterly and said, "I have no choice but to be an accomplice." I believe that Brother Zhe will not be the kind of person who will give up from the beginning, and the two of them will definitely be happy. ”
"Just by saying it with your mouth, the two of them are happy?" Qi Yang sighed and said, "I originally thought you were smarter than me, but now I look at you, too, you're stupid." Maybe I'm talking a little heavier, but it's all true. I'm afraid if I don't say it, no one will tell you. ”
Qi Yang paused and said, "Think about it, even if the two of them are very good, you should try to get married to the two of them, not like now." This is no child's play. Think about how much your mother has paid for your father and what has happened to you. If my little aunt experiences the hardships that your mother has experienced in the future, I think you will even have the heart to die. ”
Zhao Ze saw that Qi Yang said so much, lest he evoke Zhang Lingxi's sad memories, and helped Zhang Lingxi and said: "When I was studying in the Zhang family, I got along with Brother Zhe and them a lot. Brother Zhe'er shouldn't be that kind of person..."
"You're a fool too. Won't people change? Who has been like this all their lives? Qi Yang looked at Zhao Ze and Zhang Lingxi as if he was looking at two fools.
Zhao Ze said: "Anyway, I don't think I will change in my life." Brother Zhe, he will definitely not change. What's more, my little aunt doesn't have any good choices, so it's better to follow Brother Zhe'er, and maybe it will turn around. ”
Zhang Lingxi saw that Qi Yang didn't understand, and explained the reason again.
"When Jiarou reached the age of discussing relatives, she fell into the water in my house, which finally caused some bad words to come out among the three sisters of Minniang, which caused others to speculate and mislead her. Later, Mrs. Ji wanted to marry her to someone else as a concubine, but Jiarou refused and begged me to help. I asked my second aunt to set up a bureau, so that Mrs. Ji thought that she was sick, and it would be good if Zhao Jiarou didn't marry and stayed by her side. Speaking of which, this trick was learned from Brother Zhejiang's mother-in-law, and she let Sister Qing enter the house at the beginning. It's a tried-and-true method. ”
Zhang Lingxi mentioned this, smiled contemptuously, and continued: "So Mrs. Ji kept Jiarou by her side for several years, until Brother Zhejiang went to the Zhao family to ask for Jiarou. ”
"He's done anything like that?"
"Not really. It's a pity that Mrs. Ji refused, so she had to marry Jiarou to an old man who was half-cut into the ground. Jiarou was anxious and came to me. Later, Brother Zhe came over, and the two of them discussed it and decided to go together. ”
Qi Yang sighed and was silent for a long time.
She thought of her marriage from Zhao Jiarou.
If the mother refuses, she will not be able to do this. Everyone in the family has said that it is enough to have a real aunt. Other people can't lose face anymore.
However, if the family really refuses to agree, then how can she fight?
Hunger strike first?
No, how can parents who have suffered from their bodies hurt their parents by killing themselves in order to achieve their goals?
Qi Yang looked at Zhao Ze pleadingly, tugged at his sleeve and asked in a low voice, "If my father doesn't agree with our affairs, you won't take me away, right?" ”
Zhao Ze saw that Qi Yang was embarrassed, and the haze in his heart was suddenly swept away, and he smiled: "Don't worry, it won't." ”
"And then?"
"I'll think about it then."
Qi Yang laughed. "Okay, that's settled."
Zhao Ze glanced at Zhang Lingxi and thought to himself, his mother had agreed, so other worries were not worth worrying about.
After returning from the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhao Ze asked his husband for leave, stayed at home for a day, and took the initiative to ask Ying to follow his father to find his aunt. Grandmother also came all the way to the capital, if he didn't worry about it, the family was afraid of chaos.
's father was the one who was the most worried, and after several hesitations, Zhao Ze almost told his mother that he knew the whereabouts of his little aunt. How could his father have been so haggard, Zhao Ze couldn't bear it.
Even if you can't help, it's good to persuade your father on the way.
But grandmother Ji refused to Zhao Ze to follow Zhao Jiashan all day long, and said: "What can you do to help, it's good to study hard." If you really have filial piety, go and come back with a top prize. ”
Zhao Ze frowned, what does the test have to do with finding a little aunt? He could see that his grandmother was not anxious that the little aunt was leaving, but that the little aunt had disgraced the Zhao family. The grandmother doesn't care about the life or death of the little aunt.
Zhao Jiashan was also afraid that he would delay his studies and asked him to go back to school.
It was Yang Minyan who stood up and persuaded two sentences, so that the old man could fulfill Zhao Ze's filial piety and kindness.
Ji's eyelids rolled, and when she saw that her son agreed, she also changed her words.
The tense atmosphere just now suddenly eased down.
Yang Minyan hurriedly went over to pinch Ji's shoulders and rub his legs, and said, "Mother, you have been bumpy for a few days, I'm afraid that your legs and feet are weak, and my daughter-in-law will press you." "The strength is just right.
Ji Shi saw that Yang Minyan put her first in everything, and treated Zhao Ze attentively, so he was a little more satisfied. The unhappiness that Yang Minyan came out to intercede just now has disappeared.
Yang Minyan carefully pressed Ji's leg, raised his head and said to Zhao Ze: "Ze'er, look at your grandmother, she loves you the most." I don't want you to interfere in everything, I just hope that you will study hard and come back with a reputation like your father in the future. ”
After that, he looked at Ji's and said, "Mother loves our juniors the most, and she worries about everything for us." If it weren't for my mother coming over this time, I felt that I didn't have the backbone and didn't have the confidence to do things. ”
Ji smiled: "This is all as it should be." He said to Zhao Ze, who seemed to be very moved: "If I don't hurt Ze'er, who else can I hurt." ”
Hong'er sat obediently on the side, raised her head when she heard this, looked at Ji Shi blankly, and asked, "Grandmother, you can still hurt Hong'er." ”
Ji was amused by Hong'er's words, and Zhao Ze also stepped forward and touched Hong'er's head, and said, "Our family, count you the most painful." ”
"Of course. My brother bought me sugar gourds, and I also hurt my brother. Hong Er said sweetly.
The crowd burst into laughter.
When the laughter gradually subsided, Zhao Ze glanced at Yang Minyan gratefully.
、、、
Zhao Jiashan has been looking for his sister's whereabouts for more than two months, and there is still no news.
While persevering, Zhao Jiashan was already a little desperate.
If Jiarou is safe and secure, she will leave when she leaves. What he feared most was that something had happened to Jiarou.
Zhang Lingzhe's kid had better have some brains and take Jiarou to the southeast. There was constant fighting in the west and north, and they went undoubtedly looking for death.
Zhang Siye guessed that the two of them also went to the south, and according to him, when Zhang Lingzhe followed him to run the business, he paid special attention to the south. At that time, he thought that Zhang Lingzhe was just fresh, and he didn't think about it deeply.
Zhao Jiashan actually wanted to say a few words to Zhang Lingxi in person, and asked Jiarou in detail about the few days she spent with her. Although Yang Minyan listened to his instructions and went to Zhang Lingxi many times to tell him this, he always felt that there was something missing. probably saw Zhang Lingxi, listened to the tone and content of her speech, and looked at her expression, so that I could better understand the real situation at that time.
Is he suspicious? Even he couldn't tell.
In addition to sitting in the house every day embroidering or listening to Mrs. Zhong's lectures, Zhang Lingxi also went to the old lady to dance with knives and guns.
The old lady laughed at her for being a showman, only making two strokes, looking good-looking, but it was of little use.
Zhang Lingxi and the old lady pouted: "People learn late, their talent is not high, and they can dance well and look good. ”
The old lady didn't talk about her, and looked at Zhang Lingxi with joy.
Every time Liu Xian came over, he was like the old lady, watching her practice with a smile in his eyes.
The eyes of the old lady and Liu Xian, she is most familiar with them, it is clear that adults are watching the toddler walk.
"Brother Xian laughs again, I won't practice." Zhang Lingxi put down the weapon in his hand and snuggled up to the old lady.
Liu Xian said innocently: "I don't always smile every time I see you, why can't I laugh when you practice." ”
"You can laugh and laugh, but you can't watch me practice and laugh." Zhang Lingxi said truthfully.
Liu Xian covered his mouth and said, "I can't tell if I'm laughing." ”
Obviously the smile is overflowing from the eyes!
Zhang Lingxi shook his head and said no: "You cover your face completely, don't move your body, and don't speak, just like that tree, just do it." ”
"Wouldn't that be a night suit? I thought so, but I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get in, so I would be put in prison. ”
"That's good, you don't have to look at Brother Xian for a while." Zhang Lingxi knew that Liu Xian would not be angry, so he said, "Brother Xian, why is he leaving?" I said several times that I was leaving, but I came to my grandmother again to see my jokes."
The old lady spoke at this time and said, "I always feel that I am used to her temperament, and I am becoming more and more bold. ”
"It's a good thing, I like my grandmother to get used to me, and I like the feeling of having my grandmother back when I'm lawless."
Liu Xian also said: "It is indeed a good thing, girls should be bolder, and only then can they act generously and not fall behind." ”
The old lady nodded approvingly.
Everyone has their own personality, where is the same.
"I'll really leave in a few days, and I want to go to Qingchuan to do some things before I go. Do you want to go play with Sister Yang? I heard that there is a temple fair at the foot of the mountain. ”
Zhang Lingxi has always wanted to find an opportunity to visit Yiqingchuan.
Brother Xian is really like a timely rain.
"Go. I'm stuffy at home. Zhang Lingxi smiled sweetly and asked the old lady: "Grandmother, why don't you go with you." ”
"You little girls just go to the temple fair, but I won't go when I'm old. Going there will ruin your interest."
"Who said that. Grandmother is going with me. Zhang Lingxi put her face against the old lady's arm and coquettishly.
Where to go to Qingchuan to visit the temple fair, Zhang Lingxi wanted the old lady and the Qi family to meet. (To be continued.) )
