527 Road Encounter
"That's a long story." Han Ji leaned back in his chair, looked at Xue Jing and Han Yun under the window counting today's harvest, and said: "When I was as old as Brother Yun, I didn't know that peanuts grew in the ground, Wang Ju went to Zhuangzi with me to catch birds, pointed to the seedlings in the field and said that there were peanuts below, I didn't believe it, so I pulled out the seedlings in order to prove it, and this peanut field was Aunt Lin's source of income."
"Aunt Lin didn't say anything, of course, she might not dare to say it, but then my father didn't know how to know about it, and actually beat me hard, if it wasn't for my wife and Uncle Luo to ask for insurance for me, my ass might have been pumped out. Later, when I came to Zhuangzi, Aunt Lin would always pound some chestnuts and peanuts and give them to me, probably she still thought that I wanted to eat peanuts so I dug her ground.
"And I can't bear to brush her mind, and I don't say anything, I will squeeze out some money from the monthly silver when I turn around, and let the head of the village send some lamp oil cloth or something, so that my heart can be considered happy."
Shen Yan looked at him with a raised brow.
He turned his head and said, "Look at what?" ”
"When your father-in-law beat you, your wife asked you for insurance, and you still remember."
Han Ji was slightly stunned, and reached out to screw her: "Dare to be naughty again?" ”
At night, the Wei Mansion gradually became quiet and peaceful.
Mama Ning returned to the room after finishing her errand, and sat under the lamp looking at the darkness of the house outside the window, and the resentment and injustice that had been pressed in her chest before, as well as the fear and worry that erupted from her, poured out little by little with the night.
She has been thinking about leaving the Han family for nearly twenty years, but she can't get back the deed of sale, even if she goes out, she will die.
In the past, King Chen was a traitor that everyone avoided. The E family and Wei Guogong will not let her escape from the Han family with the secret of Han Ji's life experience, if King Chen is not rehabilitated one day, Han Ji will be an orphan of a traitor one day, if they don't explain King Chen's grievances to the world, then the Han family who harbored Han Ji is also a traitor!
How could they be relieved to let her run around?
But now it's different, Zhao Jun has come out, and the situation has changed. He was able to privately invite Han Ji to pay tribute to King Chen! In this way, as long as she has a way to escape from their sight and hide for another year and a half, most of them will not take her to heart. Moreover, they are busy with politics at the moment. How could they distract themselves from her?
So she's not going to leave right now. And when?
Do you want to wait for that secret to be pierced and let Wei Guogong and the E clan break her body into ten thousand pieces?
She sighed, closed the window, locked the door, and bent down to the ground. Pull out a wad of paper from the recess between the bed board and the corner of the bed. Carefully tuck into the cinched waistband.
Snow peas rose in the middle of the night. The roof smacked and cracked.
Mama Ning got up with the sound of the courtyard door opening, combed her hair in the mirror, and put on an embroidered jacket. When he arrived in the main courtyard, the Eshi was just dressed.
"It's early." E's glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and said casually.
Mama Ning walked up, took the comb grate from the maid's hand, and combed her hair at once. "At the end of the year, the slave maid wants to go to Puji Temple to burn pillar incense and add some incense money to the embroidery qin. I'll be back before noon, and I'll ask my wife for permission. ”
E's hand stroking his sideburns paused, and the tips of his eyebrows, which had always been condensed, suddenly eased. Xiuqin grew up next to her in the end, even if she made a big mistake, she died, and it was fake to say that she really didn't pity her.
She looked at her in the mirror and said, "Go ahead." Then he took out a handful of copper plates from the cabinet and handed it to her, "Burn money in my name for her, I'm afraid she won't be able to stand it, you take this money and send her a name in Puji Temple, so that she can have a good birth in the next life." ”
Mama Ning knelt down from the corner of her eyes: "Thank you for your grace." ”
Eshi glanced at her and looked away.
The breakfast in the Guogong Mansion is very early, and the people have to rush to clean the courtyard to welcome the New Year, even if they can't set off guns and hang lanterns, but the custom of removing the old and welcoming the new is always wanted.
Mama Ning ate and took the car to Puji Temple to purchase New Year's goods in the house, and when the carriage disappeared into the sea of people, she hired another car to go to the old street in the south of the city. After entering the street, the car stopped in front of a shop called Xu Ji Nanxiang, she bent down and got out of the car, looked left and right at the street, and then walked into the shop again.
In the eastern suburbs, Shen Yan got up by habit, and ran a few laps in the courtyard with goose feathers and heavy snow in his jacket and skirt, until his body was hot, and then he quietly ran to Han Ji's room to scare him.
Like the house, Shen Yan lives in the backyard and he lives in the front yard, but when she pushed the door open, Han Ji was already eating the buns made by the Zhuangtou lady with her legs crossed.
Several stewards and Zhuang Tou were talking about things in front of him, and they couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Shen Yan who suddenly came in with a cat's waist. Han Ji bit the bun and said to them: "Grandma blew her waist in the wind yesterday and her back hurts, don't you think it's strange?" ”
"Of course not!" The stewards waved their hands.
Shen Yan secretly scolded him for being a bastard, but he had to sit down on the chair nearby, and continued to bend down and pretend that his back hurt.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for them to leave, and Han Ji came over and grinned proudly: "Xiao'er, you want to scare me?" ”
Shen Yan held the tea in his hand dignifiedly, and said with a straight face: "What words?" The wind blew my waist, and I felt uncomfortable, so I got water to wash my face. ”
He stepped back and sat down: "Let the girls go." ”
Shen Yan squinted at him: "My waist hurts so much, the maids have to wait for me with me, how can I walk away?" ”
He glanced at her sideways, ignoring her.
Shen Yan raised his voice and shouted at the little man under the door: "Yinzuo'er, give me face washing water!" ”
When Yin Zuo heard this, he looked at Han Ji's eye knife, and his soul was almost gone. But Shen Yan's side is not covered, those big eyes glaring at him are actually much more terrifying than him. After all, it was Shen Yan who dared to yell at home and talk to the other party, not Han Ji. But he is a man, let him go and wait for the mistress to wash his face......
After being silent and stiff for a long time, seeing that Yinzuo was about to be unable to bear it, Han Ji put the tea in a wilted manner, hung his head like a defeated rooster and said, "I was wrong." ”
Shen Yan smiled and pinched his face: "What do you say?" Inaudible. ”
Han Ji had no choice but to say it again in a long tone.
Shen Yan pursed his lips and lowered his head to drink the tea, and then said: "Rouge sent someone to say that the eldest son of the emperor is going to set up a sacrifice in the palace at night, and you and I have to go, so the matter here can only be put on hold for the time being." ”
Han Ji wandered around the Zhuangzi for a while yesterday, and found nothing, no one knew the origin of the tomb, even if the wooden tablet was engraved with the surname Xiao, no one thought of King Chen, only knew that the tomb had been built for more than 20 years, and there were people surnamed Xiao in the nearby towns and eight miles, but it was not the ancestral tomb of these people surnamed Xiao.
From the seal of King Chen given by Shen Guanyu, it can be inferred that this tomb is King Chen's tomb and cannot be escaped. But who exactly is the person who collected the bones, it is really nerve-wracking.
Han Ji heard her mention this stubble, so she had no choice but to nod. Originally, I wanted to take her to stay here for a few days, but I had to wait for this matter to pass.
In the second room in the backyard of Xu Ji Nan's store, Mama Ning looked at the man with a stout body in front of her and smiled: "You are getting more and more prosperous in this shop." ”
Shopkeeper Xu raised his knees and smiled: "What are you doing with me this time?" ”
Mama Ning swept the back of her ears, a trace of charm leaked out from the vicissitudes of her face, she looked at the window, and said, "I can't stay in the Han family anymore, you get a reliable carriage for me, I want to leave the capital as quickly as possible." ”
"Just go?" Shopkeeper Xu was a little surprised.
"Of course!" Mama Ning stood up, "Although I don't have many days left to live, I don't want to die without even a whole corpse." After I am far away from Jingshi, I will find a nunnery to live in, or a small courtyard to live in, and then take a child to raise under my knees, according to my body, it should not be a problem to live for another one or two decades. When the child reaches adulthood, I will have someone to send to the end. ”
Shopkeeper Xu looked at her for a long time and said, "Where are you going?" ”
"It's hard to say." She shook her head and said, "Anything, anyway, as long as I can leave this place quietly, so that the Han family can't find me, even in the countryside, I am willing." For so many years of love between the two of us, I haven't let you get cheap all these years, you must find a reliable car for me, otherwise, the Han family will not even let you go. ”
Shopkeeper Xu hurriedly said: "We've been friends for so many years, can't you still trust me?" It's just that it's easy to find a car, but it's hard to get a reliable car, at least after the year. ”
Mama Ning lowered her head and thought about it, Wei Guogong and Han Ji were busy with the affairs of the court, since they had not said anything to the E family for so long, I am afraid that they would not have time to pay attention to these things in the inner house for a while, so she said: "It will be done after the year, in short, as soon as possible, you will come to the Vermilion Bird Fang to send a message to me." ”
"Got it." Shopkeeper Xu nodded.
Mama Ning thought that there was nothing else to do for the time being, so she got up and prepared to go home.
Han Ji had breakfast here and took Han Yun up the mountain and down the field for a walk, and then came back to prepare for the return journey with Shen Yan.
On the way back, the snow was lighter, and there were more people on the road. Shen Yan looked at the street through the translucent car window, and saw that the stalls on both sides of the road were endless, and the pedestrians were in twos and threes, although there was less sound of firecrackers than in previous years, but there was still a low-key joy.
From the death of the king of Chu to the death of the queen, it has been two consecutive years of national mourning, but it is just in time for the New Year, and people's long-suppressed mood is eager to find an exit.
The carriage entered the East City Gate, and the market inside the gate was bustling. The carriage was stuck in the middle of the road for a long time and could not pass. Tao Xinglai said: "The people living in the south gate are all migrant farmers, and the market has already dispersed at this time, so I'm afraid it will be more relaxed." ”
Han Ji immediately adjusted the horse's head: "Go to the south gate." ”
I turned around in the crowd with difficulty, went out of the city again, and went around to the south city gate, which was really much more relaxed, there were fewer people moving around, and there were fewer cars and horses, until the old street in the south of the city did not encounter any obstacles.
This area of Lao Cai is mostly engaged in silk and tea business sold from the south, but because it is located among merchants and common people, the goods are medium-sized. Shen Yan looked all the way along the car window, and the begonia with the curtain suddenly stared out of the window and sighed. Shen Yan turned around, and Haitang pointed out the window and said, "Isn't that Mama Ning?" Why is she here? (To be continued......)
