Section 409 Recollection

Yun Xiaofeng looked at his sensible and caring daughter, and couldn't help choking up: "In such a hot weather, don't bother to fan me, lest you incur sweat." ”

Yun Luo's eyes couldn't help but heat up when he heard his father's caring tone, and then smiled and pretended not to get in the way and insisted on fanning him, the action was clearly more gentle.

Yun Xiaofeng silently drank a bowl of chilled mung bean soup under his daughter's gentle gaze, and ate two small pieces of jade jelly fruit, and then he was content to gossip with his daughter.

Yun Luo cared about his daily life, and then turned the topic to his mother Luo.

Yun Xiaofeng did not doubt him, and when he mentioned his beloved wife who died early, his face was full of tenderness.

"Your mother is a gentle and kind person, and when she is wronged, she always swallows it silently in her stomach, and never complains to me. She ate it back then...... The old lady had a lot of suffering, but she never cried to me, and even if I was unfortunate enough to know and ask her, she always said that she had not done enough to make her mother-in-law dislike. But where is she not doing enough, it is clearly ......" His next words were stuck in his throat.

The reason for this, he and Yun Luo knew it well, and it was useless to say more.

But Yunluo didn't want to know this, she immediately skipped this place and continued to ask: "Father, I only know that my mother is from Pizhou in the northwest, but I have never heard her or you mention things about her family, don't you know that there are still relatives in my mother's family?" When your mother passed away, did you send news to Pizhou? I seem to remember that no one from my mother's family showed up at the funeral back then......" Yun Luo asked a bunch of questions.

Yun Xiaofeng's expression became embarrassed, and he bit his lip and didn't speak for a long time.

Yun Luo was disturbed by his father's expression. I don't know how this could happen.

"To be honest, I don't know much about your mother's family, after I got married to your mother, your mother never took the initiative to mention the things in her own family, at the beginning I also felt curious, I would chat a few words, ask her about the customs of the northwest, the situation at home, but when she mentioned the situation at home, she always passed by hastily and refused to talk deeply. I saw that she was deliberately avoiding her. I thought it wasn't a good time at home. I guessed if she minded the fact that she was born in the northwest, so she always avoided talking about it, and after a long time, she stopped mentioning it. Yun Xiaofeng was very embarrassed. After saying these words, he didn't dare to look into his daughter's eyes.

He himself thought it was incredible. Married to his wife for many years. I didn't know anything about her, it was really ...... It's an exaggeration.

After hearing this, Yun Luo stared at his father's face in surprise and couldn't take his eyes off for a long time. Later, when I saw my father's affirmation, I had to believe that what he said was true.

"Father, do you always know that there are brothers and sisters in my mother's family?" Yun Luo asked without giving up.

Yun Xiaofeng finally met someone he knew, nodded busily, looked at his daughter and breathed a sigh of relief: "I know this, when your grandfather went out to do business, he left for several months, it is said that he went to Pizhou in the northwest, and when he came back, he announced that he had set me up for marriage, the other party is a family in Pizhou in the northwest, poems and books are passed down from generation to generation, and there is a son and a daughter on his knees, and the eldest son voted in the military camp in the northwest, and the young daughter is gentle and virtuous, filial and generous, and points to me as a wife." The old lady still disagreed at that time, saying that how could a woman from a small family be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Yun family? Born in the desolate place of the northwest, the customs and habits are very different from ours, and there will be many inconveniences after marriage. But your grandfather insisted, saying that when he was doing business in the northwest, he encountered a small robbery, if it weren't for your grandfather's righteousness and squandering money, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to go home, not to mention that he had already given the Luo family a personal token, and he couldn't go back, and when the old lady heard this, it was not good to object again, and it was considered a tacit acquiescence to the marriage. But since then, she has expressed her attitude and is unwilling to meddle in this marriage, and all the matters that guide the marriage are handled by your grandfather himself. I still remember that your grandfather repaired a book to your grandfather, and I don't know what the letter specifically said, anyway, half a year later, your grandfather sent someone to escort your mother and a few maids to Xinyang. As for the details of the marriage, such as the date of the marriage and the purchase of the dowry, it was all discussed and finalized by an old family sent by your grandfather and your grandfather. Your grandfather sympathized with your mother's marriage from the northwest, in addition to giving her a dowry of 5,000 taels, he also specially prepared a dowry of 36 taels for her. But that's right, the old lady always uses this to pinch your mother from time to time, and your aunt always uses this to squeeze your mother. Fortunately, your mother has a good temperament and is generous, and she never takes it to heart, if she meets someone who is not forgiving, I am afraid that she will already make a noise. Therefore, your mother was a wonderful person, and as your grandfather said, she was 'gentle, virtuous, filial and generous.'" Your grandfather's vision is really unique, in order to choose a good wife, he also gave birth to a smart and clever daughter of you......" Speaking of this, Yun Xiaofeng sighed with emotion, and there were tears in his eyes. looked at the daughter who was like a pearl and morning dew, and vaguely found the shadow of his wife.

Yun Luo intimately picked up a handkerchief to wipe away his father's tears, but in his heart, he turned the river and the sea-

Now it seems that it is very strange that my grandfather hired my mother for my father.

Where is there a family who marries a daughter and only sends an old family member over, and does not even accompany a close relative?

How can anyone marry a daughter who does not buy a dowry for her daughter and asks the man to prepare it?

Didn't my grandfather say that my mother's family read poetry and books? How could the eldest son join the army instead of learning the art of making?

Since my mother's parents and brother are still alive, why did she keep silent for so many years?

When my mother passed away, how could no one come to mourn? Even if you are old, or your relatives are transferred, it is always okay to send someone to the funeral, why is there no news?

Yun Luo's heart was beating like thunder, and he felt more and more that things were twisted and bizarre.

For a while, my heart was in turmoil, and the look on my face became more and more difficult to see.

Yun Xiaofeng felt strange and said with concern: "Is it hot?" Look at the sweat on your face, your face is white and white. ”

Yun Luo settled down, shook his head to indicate that it was not, and then untied the jade pendant around his neck and said, "Father, I remember that this is the jade pendant that my mother gave me." ”

On the pink palm lies the peace buckle quietly.

Glowing with oil.

When Yun Xiaofeng saw the jade pendant, there was a longing between his eyebrows, and he took the jade pendant with trembling fingers, with a stunned expression: "This jade pendant has been hanging around your mother's neck since she met her mother that night, and I still remember that she said that this is a token that the two of us have kept for a hundred years."
