CHAPTER XLII
Some people explain that this song "Apricot Blossom Sky Shadow" is the work of Jiang Kui in the Southern Song Dynasty who misses distant lovers.
I listened to the sound of the piano coming from my sister's room, thinking about the thoughts that had just passed through my head, and I couldn't sort out my thoughts for a while. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info his brain is chaotic, he doesn't listen to the call, and for a while he thinks of Cheng Yun's shouting "Don't take revenge", and after a while, her sister came out and told everyone categorically, "Gu Rulin, she is married".
The words say that in the dream, Yiren woke up empty, so is Brother Chengyun a distant dream for his sister? Back then, the talented and beautiful woman accompanied the green plum, and now, when the dream wakes up, the hero is gone, and the beauty is crying, and she can only use this Xiaoxiao piano sound to resist the infinite sadness in her heart...... In the end, it's just creation that makes people.
I turned away, not wanting to disturb my sister at this time. She has her unspeakable pride and persistence, so why should I remove this scar and make her sad again. As for what happens in the future, at the moment, we can only take one step at a time, and it depends on the arrangement of fate.
Saying this inevitably leads to pessimism, as if our story was doomed from the beginning. However, I have to admit that before I met the Gu father and son, I never believed in fate. At Qixia Temple, my grandmother promised me supreme freedom because of a sentence from the presiding master, and this freedom, which seemed a little shocking at that time, has undergone great changes in the times and finally became a glory for everyone. No matter how it is implemented, whether it is recognized after fermentation or not is ultimately an ideological proof of progress in the letter of the law. I remember this and feel happy about it, and this is probably the only reason my grandmother made for me back then, she wanted me to live a happy and peaceful life, and everything was as it really was. It's just that then I met someone and fell in love with someone, but it was something that no one could control.
It seems that there is no sunny day in winter, and the weather on this day is very gloomy, and the time is much longer. Yesterday, when I came back from my sister's courtyard, I went into the kitchen and put down the bowls and spoons, and I just happened to meet the third aunt's personal maid Wan Qin, and I remembered that I had been busy with many things and had not taken care of visiting the third aunt's family who lived in Hua Yuan.
The accidental death of the third uncle hit her hard, and the third aunt, who was once so bright and moving, now lives in seclusion all day long, and only wholeheartedly raises An Zhao and Shuzhao. Seeing me coming, the third aunt patted the two little guys on the back and motioned for them to go and play: "It's Han Zhao who is here, let's sit here." She pointed to a low place in the room and motioned for me to sit down and speak, "In the past few years, I have followed your third uncle in Shanghai, and I haven't been in close contact. With this change, you've grown into a big girl. I remember before, there was no such quiet time. ”
I smiled gently: "No matter how naughty you are, you should know people and understand the reason." Now that there are a lot of things at home, how can you just know how to play, the third aunt is laughing. ”
She looked at me and sighed softly, with a little more approval in her eyes: "Yes, I used to always live noisily, for fear that others would shorten us, but now it's ridiculous to think about it." What is the use of caring so much about a person's life? Like your third uncle, who has been fighting all his life, in the end it's not that he is unconscious with black eyes, but just a mediocre person who disturbs himself. Now I am satisfied with watching my two children study hard. ”
The charcoal fire crackled and burst slightly, and the old house was not heated compared to the bungalow, and it was wet and cold in winter, so I had to put a carbon basin in the house to keep warm.
The family has always been vague about the third uncle, so that I still don't understand what happened in Shanghai, so that the third uncle, who was less than forty years old, suddenly died.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake the third aunt's hand and asked, "I know that if I ask like this, it will remind you of sad things, but speaking of the third uncle, I have always felt that things happened strangely, can you tell me what happened to you in Shanghai?"
The third aunt was stunned, "Didn't the eldest brother come back and tell you?" ”
I pursed my lips and said, "What are you talking about?"
"Tell me how the wrongdoer owes people money, and how he was forced by the creditor to crash into the car......"
"You can't think of it, I can't think of it before. Although your third uncle is not very good, he is a young master from a big family, and he grew up with poetry, books, etiquette, and righteousness. But three years ago, I somehow fell for the evil and clamored to go to Shanghai to do business. Actually, I know him, he is just angry that he has been protected by his family, and he is anxious to prove his ability, so he will do such a disregard when the family is separated. But where is Shanghai so easy to mix, although our family has a car, a house and an industry there, after all, the Qing Dynasty is a matter of early extinction, the Yu Wei of the Liu family may still be a little useful in Beiping or Nanjing, and in Shanghai Tang, where celebrities are everywhere, who cares which young master of Hanlin you are? Your third uncle can't recognize this truth, and only says that if people don't make a career in middle age, what will happen to their children in the future, and he forgets that the creation of his children and grandchildren needs them to manage this truth. ”
is unwilling to be protected, so he is fighting for family property, is this the reason why the third uncle made a big fuss at home back then? I was stunned for a moment and came back to my senses, "Listen to what you mean, the third uncle borrowed money from someone because of the failure of the business, so he ......"
I looked out the window, eight-year-old An Zhao and six-year-old Shuzhao were running under the plane tree, and the two little children were smiling and laughing, and they could not hear the sighs of the adults in the house, they may not understand that the third uncle had left them forever more than a month ago.
The third aunt also glanced out, turned to me and continued, "No, he was set a trap by someone, so he jumped into the fire pit."
I was terrified when I heard it, the death of the third uncle was really not as peaceful as it seemed, who was it this time? Who framed my family again and again.
"Who killed him?" I heard my voice trembling and asked this sentence, but I didn't want to hear the third aunt's answer as if I was covering my ears and stealing the bell.
"I only know that the man is the boss of the gang, and he has taken a fancy to our family's textile business and wants to partner with your third uncle. I advised Zhu Song, there is no need to do so big business, our family is harmonious and beautiful, not to mention that person is not from the right background, why should he make trouble for himself? But when he scolded me for being a woman, he got closer and closer to the man, and finally even pressed all his possessions into it, which caused an accident in the family. The business did not fail, but the money disappeared inexplicably. The debt collector did not come to the door to force us, but looked at the bamboo pine and did not let go, he was anxious for a while, and wanted to drive out, but he ......"
The next thing is self-evident, the third uncle wanted to avoid the debt collector, but he had a car accident and died for no reason, leaving the third aunt and orphan and widow with no one to take care of. He originally wanted to support his wife and children by himself, but he fell into the trap set by others and died in Huangquan, what kind of story is this a story of grievances?
What happens after the accident? The debt collector just let the three aunts and the children go? Doesn't it make sense that they will continue to collect debts?
"You must want to ask why we were able to avoid the debt collectors in the future, and strange to say, I think this incident seems to have been forced to kill your third uncle in the first place. After the accident, the eldest brother and the second brother rushed to Shanghai, but before they arrived, the debt collector said that a son had settled the matter for us, so they would not pursue the problems left by your third uncle, and the deed of the family was also returned to us, but the factory and the field were not returned. ”
A son-in-law settled the matter for the third uncle? Who has such kindness and ability?
"Didn't you ask who that boy was? Why will it help us. ”
The third aunt shook her head: "The debt collector only said that it was a young son, and he didn't say anything else." I asked them again and left impatiently, I kept looking for someone to investigate who helped us, but I didn't have a clue about finding a needle in a haystack, even if you don't ask today, I'm going to ask my eldest brother for help......"
