Chapter 43: Care
Shao Mingqing drove a stake under the trees next to him, tied the foal, and Shui Ying brought the bucket over and happily waited for the horse to drink water.
Jiang Ling walked up to Xie Wenjun with a bowl of water.
"Fifth master, you drink water." She said.
Xie Wenjun stretched out his hand to take it, smiled and drank a few sips, and Jiang Ling retreated.
Xie Roujia had already stood up from the ground, and her tears had been wiped away.
"I went out a while ago, and I just came back yesterday." Xie Wenjun said.
As soon as I came back, I met Shao Mingqing and found her a horse in such a short period of time.
Xie Roujia felt that the tears she had just wiped away were about to flow out again, she hurriedly sniffed and opened her eyes vigorously.
Looking at the girl with her head down, Xie Wenjun also had mixed feelings in his heart.
"I didn't come to see you because I was afraid it would be bad for you." He said.
He still wanted to explain something, Xie Roujia raised her head and shook her head hurriedly.
"I know, I know." She said, with a smile on her face, "Mother is angry with me, if the fifth uncle comes to see me and cares about me, my mother will definitely think that I want to trick the fifth uncle into interceding, and she will be even more angry with me." ā
She understood everything, Xie Wenjun didn't know what to say and nodded.
"Fifth uncle, don't worry." Xie Roujia smiled at him again and continued, "Moreover, with my grandmother here, I have a good life here." ā
Old Madam Xie has been here for so long, and she has hardly seen Xie Roujia's face, if others hear it, they really can't feel anything good about it.
Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie are mainly in charge of Yushan's affairs, and Xie Wenjun knows about it outside, unlike everyone who thinks that Mrs. Xie is confused and deliberately causes trouble, Xie Wenjun is more concerned about the cause of the matter.
The reason was that Mrs. Xie went to the mine to eat with the miners on a whim, and everyone thought that Mrs. Xie would not do such a thing, so it was guessed that she was picked.
"It's really a flying disaster, I obviously didn't see the old lady, and the basin was buckled on my head."
Xie Wenjun thought of Shao Mingqing complaining in front of him yesterday.
"Actually, I can't blame the old lady, I have to blame Xie Roujia, if it weren't for what she did to me at home, I wouldn't be treated like this, in fact, I just wanted to come to this Yushan mine to hide for a while, and I ended up with her as a grasshopper tied to a rope."
"But now it's fine."
The young man sat up for joy again, and danced at him.
"The old lady and the eldest lady have a feud, and I won't be blamed if there is anything in the future."
Xie Wenjun raised his hand and gave this kid a slap.
"You're still gloating." He said angrily, "If you leave Yushan, no matter how big things are, it won't be better if you can't splash on your head." ā
"How?" Shao Mingqing rubbed his head and said solemnly, "Vote for me with a peach, the gentleman should repay him with Li, the old lady will be a troublesome for me, how can I leave." ā
Xie Wenjun was said to be a little silent.
"Look at your big face, the old lady is making such a big fuss just for you." He laughed again.
"Because of this incident, I have been exempted from the charge of bewitching the old lady, and I will not be suspected of bad intentions at will in the future, no matter what the old lady is doing this for, I just need to remember the good I have received." Shao Mingqing said.
Although what Shao Mingqing said was a bit ridiculous, but the result was true, at least if the old lady did something in Yushan, everyone would not think about who was bewitched by the first thought, but what happened to the old lady herself.
However, it is not only Shao Mingqing who is exempted from the charge of bewitchment, the reason why Shao Mingqing is suspected of ill-intentioned is also because of one person.
Xie Wenjun looked at the girl standing in front of him with a smile on her face.
"Fifth uncle, don't worry, with my grandmother here, I'm doing well here."
That's what she meant.
When something like that happened, no one in the family spoke for her, no one pleaded, so she was kicked out of the house, and she was detained in the mountains alone, all she saw and felt was indifference and malice, in this situation, can she still see that others are good to her? And it's something that is clearly irrelevant.
"Jiajia, you didn't do what you did at the beginning, did you?" Xie Wenjun asked.
Xie Roujia knew what he was talking about, when she left home, it was the fifth uncle who chased her and asked, when everyone didn't ask.
But at that time she didn't want to say a word.
"It's not." Xie Roujia said with a smile.
No! She said no!
He knew it wasn't!
Xie Wenjun looked overjoyed.
"Jiajia, that'sā" He reached out and put his arm around her shoulder.
"So what?" Xie Roujia knew what he was going to say, and interrupted him with a smile, "They said yes." ā
They....
Xie Wenjun paused slightly.
"If they can say it, you can say it." He said.
Xie Roujia shook her head.
"It's not something that is not said, but they believe it." She said.
Her mother believed that she would mistreat her sister, her sister believed that she had bad intentions, and her father believed that she had evil thoughts.
She looked up at the sky, allowing her sour eyes to be relieved.
"They believe." She said again.
Xie Wenjun looked at the girl in front of him, he could clearly see her sadness, sadness, grievances and excitement, but as soon as he raised his head and lowered his head, he turned calm.
She smiled at him.
"It's okay, I don't care." She said.
It seems that those feelings have been erased with a raised hand, leaving only happiness and freedom.
It's really different from before.
Xie Wenjun thought of following his mother and second sister-in-law to see the newborn twins when he was a child.
The eldest lady naturally can't be hugged by others, so everyone hugs this identical second miss.
He was also pushed and hugged at that time.
Later, this little doll grew up, Master Xie often took her with him, he was the youngest son in Dongfu, in addition to reading, he also began to contact the family's business, and he spent more than half of his time in the yard watching the nurse play with this little doll.
Later, he often went out, and when he came back, he saw that the little doll changed once, and before he knew it, he grew into a little girl, maybe his parents were pampered and wanton, and he was Miss Changfang, her temperament was much livelier than the other sisters in the family, and some people said that it was arrogant, but he didn't think so.
This little doll often plays tricks with her sister, but she is too stupid and can't keep up with her sister's movements and thoughts, so she is always seen through lightly.
Xie Wenjun couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it, and felt sad when he laughed.
Although it is cruel, people will always grow after a blow, which is a good thing, and it is better than a blow that they have experienced.
Xie Wenjun stood up straight, nodded and smiled.
"Okay, then I'll be relieved." He said, reaching out and touching Xie Roujia's head.
Xie Roujia sighed, and then remembered the most important thing, she invited the fifth uncle to come not to talk about the previous grievances.
"Fifth uncle, I came to you to ask, do you know a scripture called the Red Tiger Sutra?" She asked.
Xie Wenjun frowned and thought for a moment.
"Is it ours?" He asked.
Xie Roujia shook her head.
"I don't know." She said, "Hasn't the fifth uncle ever heard of it? ā
Xie Wenjun thought for another moment and shook his head.
"I read a subset of scriptures and histories, and there are some books at home, not everyone can see them, Jiajia, what you said, is it your mother's book?" He asked.
If it was the witch scripture in his mother's hand, the fifth uncle would never be able to get it, let alone give it to himself.
It seems that what the fifth uncle said is true, he only got the scripture when he got married for the second time, so the fifth uncle does not have this book yet.
"Would you like to read this book?" Xie Wenjun asked, "I kept an eye on it and found it for you." ā
Maybe in this life, I can see the Red Tiger Sutra in advance.
Xie Roujia smiled and nodded.
"To be honest, I was a little worried when I came." Xie Wenjun said, "I'm worried that you'll cry a lot, I'm afraid I won't be able to coax you, so I found a horse, maybe I can help coax you." ā
Xie Roujia laughed.
Hearing the laughter here, Shao Mingqing looked over.
"Fifth master, it's not too early." He said.
Xie Wenjun looked at the sky.
"I'm here to say hello to the old lady, and I'm here to see you." He said, "I may go out in a few days, if you have something to find me, just ask this kid to go to the sand shop to leave a letter." ā
Xie Wenjun has always been running outside, so he has not married until he died.
"Fifth uncle, if you get married, I can go to Aunt Fifth if I have something." Xie Roujia said.
Xie Wenjun was stunned, and then laughed.
He is now twenty-five years old, other people at this age have children studying, he still refuses to marry, his father and mother have passed away, the eldest aunt Mrs. Xie has never been entangled in the marriage of her children, although the eldest brother has mentioned it a few times, but he is unwilling and has not forced it, but the second brother has been urging.
Xie Wenchang didn't care much about him alone, but paid more attention to taking advantage of the fact that Master Xie and Mrs. Xie had not yet given birth to a son, and their brothers would have a few more children, and their status would be stronger in the future.
He just thought it was weird and boring, so he didn't bother to get married.
Now it seems that the sister-in-law doesn't like Xie Roujia, the second sister-in-law, the third sister-in-law and the fourth sister-in-law are naturally all looking forward, Xie Roujia is a girl, she is already so old, she is about to be able to say that she is a girl who marries someone, and without the teaching of older women, she grows blindly all over the world, and it will be a problem in the future.
It's also inconvenient to take care of her by yourself, if there is another person at home to help.
It turns out that sometimes not all people are good, and it is not a bad thing to have someone to be a companion and discuss.
"Okay, wait until I find you a fifth aunt." He laughed.
That's good, I hope that the fifth uncle will have the fifth aunt to watch, and he will look at Shao Mingqing, there will be no more poisonous pills in the future, and the fifth uncle will not try the pill and die.
Xie Wenjun and Shao Mingqing said goodbye and left.
Xie Roujia took Shuiying Jiangling and sent it all the time.
"Okay, okay, don't send it." Shao Mingqing waved his hand and said.
Xie Roujia looked at the sky and thought of something.
"Fifth uncle, do you live with the old lady tonight?" She asked.
Xie Wenjun shook his head.
"I'm going back now, I won't be able to live." He said.
"Let's stay, it's going to rain in a while." Xie Roujia said.
Rain?
Xie Wenjun and Shao Mingqing looked up at the sky, the late autumn sun hung high in the sky, and they couldn't see the slightest cloud.
Do you want Xie Wenjun to stay for one more day?
Xie Wenjun smiled.
"Okay, I got it." He said.
Standing on the hillside until Xie Wenjun could no longer be seen, Xie Roujia turned around and came back.
"Miss, is it really raining tonight?" Jiang Ling asked suddenly, looking at the rice drying in the yard.
Xie Roujia hummed, and saw the little pony under the tree happily surround again, Shui Ying followed her over to demonstrate how to feed the horses, and Jiang Ling went to the yard to start putting away the rice.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.
"If you don't live, you won't live, this barren mountain is boring."
Old Lady Xie looked at Xie Wenjun, who came out with the horse, and said in a low voice.
"I heard that the newcomer from the Treasure Building is beautiful and fragrant."
Xie Wenjun laughed.
"Uncle, why don't you send me into the city." He raised an eyebrow and squeezed his eyes.
Old Lady Xie shook his head.
"No, it's not at home, it's in the barren mountains and mountains, if I'm not at home, your aunt won't dare to sleep." He said.
Xie Wenjun laughed, turned over to get on the horse, and paused again when he thought of something.
"Do you have a poncho?" He asked the little guy.
The little guy was stunned and shook his head, looking at the glow on the horizon, he could get home in less than half of the night, do you still need to prepare rain gear?
"Take it." Xie Wenjun said.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
When the last rays of the sunset faded, Xie Roujia took a branch and paddled around the ground, looking at the foal tethered under the tree.
One look at the foal, just smile, smile and look again.
"Miss, what are you writing?" Jiang Ling asked, looking at the messy lines on the ground.
Xie Roujia looked down, and then realized that she had unconsciously written the Red Tiger Sutra.
The fifth uncle will definitely pay attention to the Red Tiger Sutra, and will remember to find it for himself, but he already knows the scriptures, if he writes it down and secretly gives it to the fifth uncle, and the fifth uncle gives it to himself, then is it the fifth uncle who gave him the scriptures or the scriptures that he gave to the fifth uncle?
Xie Roujia couldn't help laughing, she stood up straight, clenched the branch in her hand, and began to write on the ground.
"In the east of Nanshan, there are mountains, the soil is like red, and the shape is like a tiger......"
Jiang Ling watched her write more and more, and couldn't help but take a few steps back, and suddenly something knocked on her head, bird? She hurriedly looked up, and two or three more bits of water fell down.
It's raining...
"It's raining!" Jiang Ling shouted, "It's raining!" ā
As she spoke, large drops of rain fell down, and the loess on the ground splashed.
Xie Roujia ignored it, still waving the branches, as if she had already written, and the ground in front of the door was already densely covered with words.
The rain fell densely, smashing the written words.
Xie Roujia's clothes were soon wet, but she still wrote, her footsteps moved faster and faster, and the movements in her hands became faster and faster, and a word appeared on the ground quickly, and was instantly dispersed by the rain, and the splashing mist was rising.
In front of the wooden house in the heavy rain, the soaked girl waved her arms and moved quickly on the ground, and there were big words on the ground like a book from heaven, flickering and flickering and flickering.
Xie Roujia silently recited the last sentence, and the branches under his hand also finished the last stroke, and the five verses of one hundred and sixty-nine verses appeared on the ground in front of the door and disappeared in an instant, turning into a piece of water.
Xie Roujia raised her head and was washed by the rain, and with a shout, she threw the branch in her hand into the sky.
There was a thunderstorm in the air, and Jiang Ling and Shui Ying, who were standing under the eaves, couldn't help but squat down with their heads hugged.
Shao Mingqing also withdrew his head from the window.
"Is it really raining?" He muttered, "It's pretty accurate." ā
