Chapter 53: Ten Money

The rabbit is obedient, and after only a few days of raising it, it will understand some humanity, lying motionless in Feng's arms, his red eyes are half-closed, and he enjoys Feng's love comfortably.

The rabbit is still small, and one day it will grow into a big rabbit. But that kid named Jin Ziwei will never grow up.

The men, afraid of his crying, put mulberry paper on his little face layer by layer until he died.

Mother Feng smelled the fragrance of flowers every day during her pregnancy, and her spirit was already weak, and when she saw Brother Wei who was covered with mulberry paper, she couldn't bear the scene in front of her anymore, and she went crazy.

Linglong couldn't guess if her brother's body was thrown into the pool by her crazy mother, but she knew that the mulberry paper in her mother-in-law's hand was not for killing, but for scary.

The mother-in-law is scared of his mother Feng.

When she saw the mulberry paper, her mother remembered the scene of her little brother's tragic death, so she fell ill that day.

Mulberry paper is the ultimate source of all the mother's suffering.

Linglong looked at Feng Shi, who looked serene, and her heart sank again and again.

She seemed to see her mother in a deep pool of great darkness and could not extricate herself, and she stretched out her arms but could not reach her mother's hand.

"Mother, my brother is asleep, but we are still alive, I will definitely pull you out and return your innocence."

Feng Shi just turned her face, she was still immersed in her own world, deaf to Linglong's words, but she finally realized Linglong's existence, and she smiled, her pale and haggard face brightened by this smile.

Linglong looked at her mother, she also smiled, the summer sun through the shade of the tree, sprinkled on the mother and daughter's body, like a gold edge.

One by one

Linglong has been sick for two days, but the injuries given by the twelve princes are all healed.

After noon, someone came to the capital, and Song Xiuzhu heard that Jin Zifeng and his classmates lived in Zhuangzi, so they sent food and more than a dozen small maids.

As for the eldest lady and the fifth lady, it seems that everyone has forgotten.

Seeing a bunch of people carrying things to the Zhuxiang Courtyard, Linlang patted the back of Linglong's hand and said softly: "Fifth sister, don't care about them, you can't stay in your mother's house for two or three years, let's not be angry with them." ”

Linglong smiled: "The fourth sister is too worried, I don't think about it so much, I want to go to the town for a walk, let's go together another day." ”

Linlang said with a smile: "Then what is there to visit, it is not as prosperous as the capital, but there is a big set every ten to shop, and there are some fresh things in the courtyard of the village, which cannot be seen in the capital." ”

Linglong's eyes lit up, it was a big set, and nine times out of ten it was not in the city. When asked again, if this was the case, the yamen thought that the 10-day gathering was too chaotic, and moved the place of the gathering from the city to the outside of the city as early as five years ago. It's not too far, it's more than half a mile out of the city gate.

The next day was the tenth day of the new year, and Linlang rarely got up early in the morning, and was about to go to Linglong, but saw that Linglong was already waiting for her in the yard with Xingyu and Huancui.

Linlang thought to herself that this fifth sister looked calm, but in fact, she was still a child, and she was anxious when she talked about rushing to the market.

"Let's go to the market, inevitably show up, always know the elders, the third aunt is sick, so I asked someone to send a message to the third brother, but I didn't expect the third brother to say that he would also go. I'm afraid that even the carriage is ready, our sisters sit on the carriage, and the third brother rides a horse. ”

Linglong was surprised at first, and then realized that the fourth sister was looking at the tense relationship between her and her brother, so she wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to their brother and sister.

It's just that she and her brother Jin Zifeng are far from being as simple as ordinary brothers and sisters having an awkward relationship.

Seeing the loneliness that flashed in her eyes, Linlang thought that she was blaming herself for doing more, so she took her hand and said softly: "That Xu family is a good family matter, but I heard my mother say that Jin Yuan even wants to rob you of family affairs." It's her business to belittle herself, and you can't let others step on it. The aunt can't help you, and the third uncle can't count on it, but after all, the third brother and you are from the same mother, no matter how hard-hearted he is, he is also the eldest son, and he will never watch the relatives of the sister-in-law let an aunt give birth to a billet and rob it, don't be stubborn, even if you marry in the future, you must have your mother's family to rely on in your husband's family, the third brother is the eldest son, and it is not up to him to have the final say in Xifu in the future. ”

What Linlang said, Linglong understands everything, understands everything. It's just that she has always regarded Jin Zifeng as her brother, but Jin Zifeng doesn't necessarily treat her as her sister in her heart.

There was already a carriage with green and vermilion lacquer waiting, Linlang and Linglong approached and saw two horses next to them. After a while, I saw Jin Zifeng coming over, and there was another person beside him, but it was Xu Tingshen.

Seeing that there was a foreign man, the sisters just hurriedly greeted each other and got into the carriage.

The carriage left Zhuangzi and walked for about half a mile, and Linlang smiled bitterly: "I thought that the third brother was a scholar, and he was inevitably a little pedantic, but I didn't expect him to be enlightened." ”

Linglong thought to himself, he could easily transfer the things that his sister embroidered for him, and today's matter was nothing.

Seeing that she was silent, Linlang thought she was embarrassed and embarrassed, so she teased her: "Look at you, I said earlier that I would let the third brother be the master for you, but now it seems that the third brother has long regarded the second master of the Xu family and you as a pair, as for our third sister, this abacus can't be beaten." ”

Linglong said in her heart: I hope so, my brother's mind can be guessed at once.

She smiled at Linlang: "If the fourth sister is inconvenient, she will wait in the carriage for a while, and if you want anything new, just tell me, and my sister will bring it to you one by one." ”

Linlang is waiting to be married, even if she comes to the market, she has to avoid it, it is good to have Jin Zifeng with her, but with Xu Tingshen, a foreign man, it is of course inconvenient.

The set was really lively, people from five miles and eight villages came, and Jin Shun's two sons also brought two truckloads of dry goods. When they arrived at the market, they found a place to set up a stall, but they didn't unload the car, but just put those mushroom fungus and bacon and duck into a few baskets, so that a cub looked at the stall, and the two brothers came over and said to Jin Zifeng: "Third master, let's go to the familiar merchants to negotiate the price, you and the two young ladies go around first, don't wait for us." ”

Jin Zifeng has been influenced by Jin Min since he was a child, and he is most disdainful of businessmen, not to mention that the livelihood in this Zhuangzi does not belong to Xifu.

He waved his hand to let the two brothers just get busy, he and Xu Tingshen handed over the horse to the little maid and led it aside to graze, and let the handlebar drive the carriage, and slowly wandered around the market.

Although most of the items on the collection are from the villages, there are also a lot of carriages and mules, and even large families and merchants in the capital come here to procure.

The handlebar type drove the carriage very slowly, Jin Zifeng and Xu Tingshen also sat on the front of the carriage, and a few small servants trotted to follow the car, waiting for the dispatch of the masters.

Linlang and Linglong sat in the carriage, each opened the curtain on one side to look at the excitement outside, and saw a small basket selling rattan weaving, Linlang asked the carriage to stop and let the maid get off the car to buy.

Xiu'er picked a few and brought them back to Linlang, Linlang was not satisfied, so she wanted to go down and pick them herself, but looking at Xu Tingshen sitting in front of her, she was a little embarrassed. After all, there is a foreign man, and she is waiting to be married.

Linglong grimaced at her: "I haven't finished yet, I'm going to pick the fourth sister, just to divide one of me." ”

Linlang pushed her to hurry up: "Let's divide the two sisters in half." ”

Linglong cheered, got out of the carriage with Xingyu and Xiu'er, walked to the small stall selling rattan baskets, and bargained with the stall while picking.

"How much does this vase cost?" She asked, the vase was also made of rattan, and it should look good with some dried flowers.

"The girl really has a vision, this is the most expensive, ten dollars." When the stall set up saw the carriage with blue curtains and vermilion paint, they knew that this was a wealthy family, and the vase that was originally sold for five yuan doubled.

"It's so expensive, I want two, you cheaper." Linglong is not very good at bargaining, but she feels unwilling not to bargain.

The stall set up made up his mind not to give cheap, and was arguing, only to see a person walking to Linglong's side.

"That's ten dollars, and I want both vases." The voice is clear and sven, and he speaks unhurriedly.

When Linglong raised her eyes, she saw Xu Tingshen standing beside her, looking at her.
