Chapter 10: Cousin

Back in her room, Lei Lei sat in front of the bookcase and pondered for a while, raised her hand to slowly grind the ink, spread the paper on the bookcase, and began to list the steps of harmony step by step.

When she first passed the door, Lianlei's dowry was extremely rich, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was ten miles of red makeup. Now she doesn't have the luxury of asking Mo Tianxing to spit out one by one, she is not greedy, nor is she cowardly or pretending to be high, she knows very well that it is impossible for her to go back to the Gu Mansion, and it is difficult for orphans and widows to move an inch without silver, as long as Mo Tianxing gives up a few Zhuangzi to make a living!

"Tuk tuk tuk ......" there was a slight knock on the door. Light lotus? It's good that you didn't get in by yourself without the door. Lianlei said without raising her head. Miss, the eldest cousin has come to visit Miss," said Asahara as he pushed open the door and walked in.

Lianlei raised her head and saw a slightly strange man walking in behind Asanohe, frowning, Lianlei hurriedly stuffed the paper in her hand into the official document on the side, stood up and greeted her. "Big cousin!" Lianlei squatted down and called.

Hua Wuxian was just in his early thirties, and his skin was a little rough due to his military background and perennial battles, and his sword eyebrows and tiger eyes were full of heroism.

Looking at Pian Lei's pale and haggard face, Hua Wuxian frowned, couldn't help kicking a brocade dun beside her, and said angrily: "I can't complain that grandpa said that Mo Tianxing had a mean and unkind face, hum, Lianlei, look at your current ghostly appearance, damn it, a certain family must teach this kid a lesson, so that my aunt is still worried under Jiuquan!" ”

Lian Lei silently helped up the Jindun that Hua Wuxian kicked over, and Lian Lei found that her hands were trembling involuntarily. Even if you live again, do you still remember it in your heart?

Although the words are heartwarming, but in the three years when life was worse than death in the previous life, when I was the loneliest and most helpless, why didn't anyone even look at me! Why did the mother die with hatred, the Hua family ignored it, and there was not even a person who mourned? There is no trace of joy in her heart after seeing her relatives for a long time, because Lian Lei has faintly forgotten in her heart that her mother was originally surnamed Hua, and there is no disappointment if there is no expectation, she is afraid, so she forces herself to forget!

Lian Lei sat down with her eldest cousin, poured a cup of hot tea with her own hands, and said, "The eldest cousin is busy with military affairs, and Lian Lei doesn't dare to bother you with some family affairs. What's more, Lianlei has a father and grandmother, and from the flower family, it will make Lianlei unable to raise her head! The voice was soft, but there was a hint of coldness.

Hua Wuxi's eyes darkened, and he sighed and said: "The eldest cousin is a rough person, and he won't say anything if he is warm-hearted, but there is a sentence that is not unpleasant, your grandfather has an aunt and yours in his heart!" Believe it or not, when Grandpa heard the news of his aunt's death, he went up to his throat and fainted...... Alas! ”

Lianlei's mother is the only daughter of the previous generation of the Hua family, and before she got married, she was afraid of melting in her mouth, and she was afraid of being scared on her shoulders, but because she insisted on marrying Lianlei's father, she made some trouble. The old prince has been fighting all his life, and his temperament is stubborn until he is a little stubborn, and he is angry, and he has a posture of not getting along with each other!

Lian Lei has never seen her grandfather, but when her mother was still alive, she saw her uncle and eldest cousin a few times. Grandpa? In Lianlei's heart, she is not even as kind as her nurse Zhang's mother.

Lian Lei smiled and said, "Since you're concerned, why don't you come and take a look?" Mother, it's really pitiful, my mother writes a letter to my grandfather every day, but she has never sent it out, and she has accumulated a thick pile in the past few years. When my mother left, I didn't want anything, but I took this letter that couldn't be sent, and went to that world alone, big cousin, do you know how lonely my mother's heart is, how much self-blame I have? ”

Hua Wuxian pursed his lips, there were crystal tears flashing in the tiger's eyes, he took a long breath and said in a low voice: "Your father is not a good match, and your grandfather's heart is also for her good, but people are stubborn when they are old, and God didn't give the old man time to turn around, so my aunt died." Lian Lei listened to her eldest cousin, being separated from your mother forever is already the biggest punishment for your grandfather, don't hold a grudge against him, okay? ”

"Does he remember me? Giggle...... "Lian Lei smiled, shook her head slightly, and said, "If you have a heart, find a way to move your mother's bones back to your hometown!" Although my mother didn't say it explicitly when she left, I could read her heart, and she was thinking about her grandfather, grandmother, and uncles...... I think about it, but I don't have the shame to say it! ”

Seeing that Lian Lei was a little resistant, Hua Wuzhi was speechless for a long time, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and the Hua family owes this cousin something in the end. However, there are already signs of loosening between my cousin's words, and it is not good to be in a hurry, and pressing it will only increase the suspicion in my cousin's heart and backfire.

With a long sigh, Hua Wuxian said: "This is given to me by my father when he left, and it is the dowry that your grandfather silently prepared when he heard that you were married. Time has passed, but it is good to change to silver and press the bottom of the box! Hua Wuxian handed a small bag to Lianlei.

Lian Lei's hand trembled a little, and she untied it and looked at it, there were several house deeds inside, as well as a few silver tickets that had been somewhat yellowed, the most conspicuous thing was a silver lock that had been worn out and could not read clearly, Lian Lei held it in her hand, and looked at her eldest cousin suspiciously, her eyes were full of inquiry.

"You must have heard your mother say that your grandfather was a silversmith before joining the army, and this is the longevity lock that your grandfather made by himself when your mother was born. In the dead of night over the years, your grandfather would sit in the embroidery building before his aunt's wedding, holding the longevity lock in his hand and coming out for a while. Before I entered Beijing, my grandfather threw this lock to me, and just said, 'Let's dance lightly, the lives of the women of the Hua family are thin'" Hua Wuxian said in a low voice.

Listening to Hua Wu's words, Lian Lei faintly felt her grandfather's deep care, and a few lines of tears flowed gloomily, resentful? Resentment! But why is there a warmth rising in my heart, sweet and thick.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk...... Relian, are you up? Mo Tianxing's familiar voice sounded outside the door. Lian Lei raised her sleeve and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "Come in, the door is not closed......"

Mo Tianxing pushed the door and walked in, and saw a strange man sitting in his bedroom, frowned, and asked in a somewhat cold voice, "Who are you?" Don't you know that being alone in the same room with a widow will damage the reputation of the pity? ”
