Chapter VII Identification of Relatives and Tokens
Exiting the study, Tang Shaohe happily came to the tent room in the main courtyard of the Tang family, took out twenty taels of silver from the tent man, and then trotted back to the small courtyard in the north chamber.
Seeing her younger brother nibbling on buns without a trace of temperature, she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart, she rubbed his head dotingly, smiled and said, "Jinghua, the eldest uncle said to let you go to a private school to study, do you want to go?" When you grow up and gain fame, no one will dare to bully us in the future. ”
Tang Jinghua nodded as if he didn't understand, and said in his tender voice: "Well, sister, Jinghua is going to take the fame test, so that no one can bully us......"
"Jinghua is so good! Come, go into the house with my sister, it's so cold here. Tang Shaohe took his brother's hand and went into the house and poured him a glass of warm water.
The night was like water, Tang Shaohe was so excited that she couldn't sleep, all this happiness seemed to be too sudden, making her feel very unreal, and even a little unable to believe her eyes, her uncle and aunt treated her brother really well, did she think too much? Or did the uncle and aunt have changed their opinion of their two siblings? It's hard to figure out!
After the third watch of the night, she blinked, yawned carelessly, closed her heavy eyelids, and slowly fell asleep.
Above the Tang Mansion, a black shadow stayed on her roof, and after a while, the person tapped his toes and quickly flew towards the east of the capital, instantly disappearing into the night.
In the study of the Hou Mansion of Anning, a man in a tight-fitting night suit stood respectfully in front of the desk and said in a low voice: "Back to the Hou Ye, the little one has found out the whereabouts of the Tang family's maid, how to deal with it, please make it clear." ”
"Are you sure it's the girl?" Xu Shi'an asked, a manly man, there are some things that cannot harm the innocent.
"The little one has taken a serious look, she is the maid that Hou Ye is looking for." The man in black replied in the affirmative.
Xu Shi'an had a little appreciation in his eyes, the corners of his mouth hooked up an evil smile, and he nodded: "Very good!" There's no hurry, I'll talk about it in a few days. I've worked hard for you, so go down and rest first. ”
"Yes, Master Hou, the little one will retire." The man in black saluted him and left the study silently, no longer disturbing him to do his work.
At the same time, in the palace of the king of Qi, the commander of Qin was also reporting to the king of Qi about the tracking, but the king of Qi ordered him to follow the object not of the maid of the Tang Mansion, but the noble Marquis of Anning.
Commander Qin, who knelt on one knee in front of King Qi, secretly looked at his master's face, this morning Marquis An Ning was still drinking and having fun with his master, but at night the master asked him to track the whereabouts of Marquis Anning, which had to make him feel confused and puzzled, where did Marquis Anning offend his master?
Qi Wangfu in Jiutong Lane, Beijing.
It was late at night, and there was a louder bang, a cold wind, and the rustle of leaves from time to time.
After listening to Commander Qin's report, Qi Yanxiao frowned deeply, pondered for a moment, and said, "Continue to send someone to keep an eye on An Ninghou to see what he wants to do?" As for the Tang family maid, as long as she is sure that her life is worry-free, the rest don't have to be ignored. ”
"Yes, my subordinates have orders!" Commander Qin replied in a low voice, and quietly withdrew from the study at the signal of the prince, disappearing into the night.
It's obvious! An Ninghou really didn't know the little maid of the Tang family, otherwise he wouldn't have sent someone to the Tang Mansion in the middle of the night to inquire about the news. And what about the Tang maid named Shaohe? If you want to get their attention, you don't have to go for An Ninghou alone; If there is no deep hatred between the two, then why did the maid of the Tang family call out the name of An Ninghou as soon as they came up? Who the hell is lying? Is there any secret in this? He wants to know!
Qi Yanxiao remembered the Tang family's maid's face with clear love and hate, as well as a pair of starry eyes like autumn water, and the corners of her mouth inadvertently hooked a shallow arc of unknown meaning, this girl is really unforgettable!
Early in the morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone into the house, Tang Shaohe opened his eyes a little sleepy and stretched his waist to get up.
After she freshened up and changed her clothes, she walked briskly to her brother's room, and saw that her brother was still sleeping deeply, and she couldn't bear to wake up her brother, so she had to go out to the kitchen again to make breakfast.
The daily breakfast is four steamed buns with two bowls of porridge as clear as water, and sometimes the vegetable and meat buns will be replaced with steamed buns, but my brother has never disliked it, and he eats it very deliciously.
Tang Shaohe sighed slightly, it would be good if his father and mother were still there, at least his younger brother would not suffer with her like he is now.
"Jinghua, have you eaten enough?" Tang Shaohe looked at him with a slight smile, fetched a glass of water for him, and continued: "Today, my sister will take you out for a walk, and by the way, recognize the way." ”
"Really? Can I hang out with my sister? Tang Jinghua looked at her with wide eyes, and when he saw her nodding slightly, he couldn't help clapping his palms happily and cheering: "Great, I can finally go out with my sister." ”
Hearing this, Tang Shaohe's eyes were slightly red, yes! This is the first time she has taken Jinghua out with her! I remember that in her previous life, she only cared about being stuffy in the house every day, remembering her father and mother every day, thinking that she would be worried about the days to come, how could she care about Jinghua's mood?
The most memorable one for her was that Jinghua secretly took her cousin's ice plum cake, and was found by her cousin to be beaten with ten boards...... But when she endured the pain in her body and scolded her brother for his ignorance, he cried out aggrievedly, and after calming down for a long time, he told her that he just wanted to take a few pieces of ice plum cake for his mother to eat, because that day happened to be his mother's death day, and he remembered that this was his mother's favorite ice plum cake.
When her brother finished speaking, she couldn't help but hug her brother in pain anymore...... That night, the two hugged each other and cried until the tears were almost dry. Since then, she is no longer quiet in her own world, crying and laughing with her brother every day, making her brother feel as much as possible that he is no longer alone, even if his father and mother are gone, he still has a sister to love him.
Perhaps the more this is the case, the more her cousin threatens and intimidates her by taking advantage of her weakness, so that she has to obey her cousin in everything, has to hand over General Meng and her relatives, and has to marry An Ninghou as a concubine on her behalf. All this is a last resort, but this time, she will not let her cousin control her marriage again.
That's right! What about tokens? Where did she hide it? I remember that it seems to be in one of the cages when I came to the Tang Mansion, and I will go over to see if it is still there, if not, I will have to look for it carefully.
Thinking of this, she took her brother's hand and went back to her room, opened the cage and found it one by one.
Tang Jinghua looked at her sister's anxious look, and couldn't help asking, "Sister, what are you looking for?" Would you like me to help me find it? ”
"No need, you bask in the sun in the courtyard first, my sister will find it soon." She shook her hand and said with a smile: "When my sister finds it, my sister will take you out to play." ”
"Well, that sister, hurry up!" Tang Jinghua nodded obediently, then carried a small bamboo chair out of the door and sat in the middle of the courtyard to bask in the sun.
When her brother walked out, she began to look for the relics left to her by her mother, something very important!
