Chapter 61: Going Away
In the past few days, Shen He looked at the dry branches of the sycamore trees in the yard, and only felt that his heart was like the leaves on the branches that were about to be blown off by the wind, without a trace of life. The charcoal fire in the house www.biquge.info the pen and the fun pavilion burned so much, Shen He still felt chills all over her body, and the cold in her body seemed to be radiating from her heart, she was lying on the bed, shivering from the cold, which frightened Aunt Yu and Xiaocui.
Shen He was seriously ill, and it was half a month later when he got better.
During these days, fortunately, with Aunt Yu and Xiaocui taking care of her, she was fine. Although his body was still a little weak, Shen He's spirit seemed to be much better.
Huang Ji'an's page has been turned, and she wants to start her life again. Shen He's character has always been like this, he will not admit defeat, let alone be weak.
It's just that she hasn't been out for a long time, and she doesn't know that rumors have spread outside.
It is rumored that the bride of the Huang family did not wait for the groom official on the wedding night. The bridegroom got very drunk that night and slept outside the house.
Since the day he got married, he has stayed out for the night, leaving the bride alone in the empty room.
He no longer takes care of the business of Jinxiufang and Taihe Cloth Village, and begins to linger in major music shops and wine shops all day long. No one will listen to him. The once high-spirited young man has now become a self-defeating heartless man.
During this time, Wang Shaocheng visited many times, but he was driven out by Xiaocui. Seeing that Shen He was sick, he also knew that no matter how much he entangled, he would only be bored with himself, and gradually stopped coming.
Shen He began to prepare for the next step. She had no love for this place, and it was time to leave.
Bao Xiangju slowly got on the right track under the care of Aunt Yu and Zhuzhu, and Shen He felt that he could already let go.
Xiao Cui and Ah Niu are the only ones in this world who can't rest assured, as long as they are willing, Shen He will take them with them. No matter the road ahead is difficult or thorny, she is willing to hold up for them.
When Shen He went to Bao Xiangju some time ago, she was planning to leave, and now, she finally made up her mind.
After asking Xiaocui and Ah Niu's opinions, both of them said that they would resolutely follow her, and their original words were "Where Miss is, Xiaocui will follow her", "Sister, take Ah Niu, follow my sister"
Shen He had no choice but to think: It seems that she is destined to have three sisters and brothers in this life, but these two people are her relatives, and she can't rest assured that she will stay in Yong'an City.
It's just that she has a few more things to do before she leaves. First of all, I have to go back to Huaishu Village.
She and Xiaocui found a good weather and took a carriage back to Huaishu Village together. Shen He went directly to the third uncle's house.
The third uncle had also heard about Shen He and Huang Ji'an, and now, seeing Shen He come back, he didn't know how to persuade her.
Shen He said to the third uncle: "Uncle, I came back this time to ask for your help." ”
The third uncle said: "Your own family, don't be polite, just say anything directly"
Shen He said: "I want to sell the Shen family's old mansion"
The third uncle was surprised: "That house is your reliance in the village, if you sell it, what will you do when you come back later?" ”
Shen He said: "Uncle, I won't tell you, I have decided to leave Yong'an City, I don't know if I will come back."
The third uncle was even more surprised: "You want to leave your hometown? Where to go? ”
Shen He said: "I want to go to the capital city first"
The third uncle pondered for a while, knowing that this niece had an idea, since she said so, she had already thought about it, going to the capital city is indeed more effective than Yong'an City, but the capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, she is a woman, can she live there?
Shen He seemed to see what he was thinking, and said: "Uncle don't worry, since I dare to go, I have already thought about making a living, since I can gain a foothold in Yong'an City, why can't I have my own new world in the capital?" ”
After hearing this, the third uncle nodded and said: "What you said is not unreasonable, but the capital is incomparable to Yong'an City, if there is anything at that time, no one can help you, you are a weak woman, you have no relatives, I am still a little relieved."
Shen He said: "I want to take Xiaocui and Ah Niu, they are my relatives, and I can write to you if there is anything at that time."
The third uncle said: "Since you have decided, my uncle will not stop you." It's just that the mansion left to you by your father is a century-old inheritance, do you really want to sell it? ”
Shen He said: "I am also helpless. But now I urgently need silver taels, and I don't know what will happen when I get to the capital, so I need to prepare more to be prepared. If I go back to Huaishu Village one day, I will definitely spend more money to get it back."
The third uncle said: "Okay, I'll help you ask in the next few days, see if there is anything you want to buy, have you thought about how much silver you want?" ”
Shen He said: "Uncle looks at it, but it must be explained that there can be no trimming, groundbreaking, and the original appearance of the house must be retained."
The third uncle said: "Yes, this is the best, and it can be regarded as an explanation to your father"
Before returning to the city, Shen He left the house title deed and other items to the third uncle.
A few days later, Zhuzhu sent a letter to him, saying that the third uncle had found a buyer, and it was an outsider from a neighboring village. Because of the three sons, the house was not enough when they married. He also did some small business of reselling goods and saved some silver, so he took a fancy to Shen He's house.
It's just that there are not many taels of silver, and I can only give three hundred taels of silver, and I can't give more than that. After hearing this, Shen He felt that the price was reasonable, so he found another time to go back to the village and completed the formalities such as the deed and seal of the house.
Before leaving, Shen He left ten taels of silver to the third uncle, saying that it was a little heart to be a niece, and the third uncle resolutely refused to accept it at first, and then Shen He said: "If there is no guidance and help from the third uncle many times, there will be no Shen He today, so these silvers are a little bit of the niece's filial piety to the uncle, if you don't accept it, the niece will feel uneasy."
Seeing that Shen He was so persistent, the third uncle had to accept the silver.
Before leaving, Shen He took Xiaocui to the grave of his parents, burned some paper money, and put on a few pillars of incense.
Shen He said in his heart: Father and mother are above, please forgive your daughter for being unfilial and sell the ancestral house left to her daughter. But the daughter is also a last resort, every year in the future, the daughter will be in other places to burn paper money for her father's mother, may her father and mother know underground, bless her daughter all the way safe, and get what she wants!
Xiaocui accompanied her to kneel in front of the tomb and burned paper money together, and Shen He also asked her to put on a few pillars of incense. The two of them returned to the city after dark.
In the next few days, Shen He began to arrange some things before leaving.
She had already planned to hand over Bao Xiangju to Aunt Yu and Zhuzhu to take care of, which could be regarded as a reward for them taking care of themselves these days.
