Chapter 306: Chasing Pigs
Sure enough, Huo Jiu's calculation was true, Jiang Yu had just informed the Tang family of this matter for only two days, and in the afternoon of this day, the mother and daughter were both talking with Jiang Yan in the house, and a little girl replied outside: "Mrs. Hui, the Hou Ye ordered someone to pass the word, saying that the uncle is back, and the Hou Ye has already welcomed him to the main hall." ”
Jiang Yan leaned on the soft pillow and straightened upright, and happily pulled Tang Shi and said, "Mother, it's really Brother Chen'er who is back!" ”
"Yes, yes! This conscienceless thing has been gone for nearly a year, and I don't know how to send a letter! Tang wept with joy.
Jiang Yu hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe her mother's tears, and said with a smile: "Why is my mother so sad? When the second brother went out, he made a promise, saying that he would come back before he turned seven pounds and turned one year old. Isn't this the right time? The eldest sister will rest here first, and I will come when I accompany my mother. ”
Jiang Yan bowed her head and pondered for a moment before she pondered: "Brother Chen'er was very close to his father before his study tour, and it really hurt him back then, so he made up his mind to go away. Since Dad lives in the Huo family, it is difficult for the two of them to guarantee that they will not meet, and I am worried that Brother Chen will not understand what happened during this time and will conflict with Dad again. ”
"Shouldn't there be conflict? No matter what the reason, it can't be a reason for him to hurt his own flesh and blood. If Brother Chen is a bloody person, he should ignore this old bastard for the rest of his life. "Now speaking of Jiang Xuewen, Tang still can't forgive.
"Mother, you are angry, you still have to focus on the overall situation, why do you want to make Brother Chen'er feel better. After all, he never came back. Jiang Yan was anxious, the Jiang family was indeed scattered. But after all, they are close relatives. It's not always too big to make a fuss. Make people laugh. Not for himself, but also for the dignity of the Jiang family when he was in the Huo family.
Seeing Jiang Yan like this, Jiang Yan naturally knew what she was thinking, and reluctantly gently pushed her shoulder: "Eldest sister, don't worry about it, I still want to have so many things in the confinement, and I'm not afraid that the milk is not good and I can't make six catties full." I know what to do. ”
Looking at Jiang Yan's heroic eyebrows and eyes and the light smile on her lips, Jiang Yan inexplicably felt at ease. I don't know when she, as a sister, began to get used to relying on Jiang Wei.
In the vestibule. Huo Shijiu was chatting with Jiang Chenfeng: "...... I didn't expect the second uncle to go so far away, which is really admirable. Because my mother-in-law misses you, I have already sent someone out to visit and find out your news, and it is only recently that I learned that you have gone so far away in Yunnan. ”
"It's just a mess." After going out for a year, Jiang Chenfeng's snow-white skin turned into a healthy wheat color, heroic, calm and introverted. When he spoke to Huo Shijiu, he didn't see closeness, but he was not far away, so he asked instead: "I just went back to the hat brim alley, but I saw that there was only a broken wall left in my home. After some inquiry, I heard a lot of words from many people. It is said that it was the quarrel between my sister and my father that caused the fire to burn down my mother's house, and some people say that my father now lives in the courtyard given by the emperor to enjoy happiness. ”
Huo Jiujiu didn't say that people were not behind his back, and he didn't want to mention much about the past, so he just said: "There are some reasons for this, my father-in-law now lives in the house, and I have ordered someone to pass on the word." ”
"What?" Jiang Chenfeng was stunned.
A stubborn person like Jiang Xuewen would agree to live in the house of a "traitorous minister"? It seems that he has been out for eleven months, and a lot of great things have happened.
"Brother Chen!"
Tang's excited voice came from the door.
Jiang Chenfeng got up and went out, and saw that Tang was wearing a delicately cut indigo blue cardigan, with a tea-gold brocade eight-panel skirt underneath, and his hair was neatly tied in a round bun, with two red gold ruyi hairpins inserted obliquely. is dressed gracefully and dignified, and the person beside her is Jiang Wei, who is wearing a crescent white collared plain makeup gown, no fat powder and no head and face, but she is still beautiful and reluctant to take her eyes off.
"Mother!" Jiang Chenfeng took three steps and made two steps to the front, kowtowed: "The unfilial son kowtows to his mother, and the son is back!" ”
"You still know that you are not a filial son, and you still know that you will come back!" Tang Shi held Jiang Chenfeng's shoulder, tears raining down: "My mother is looking forward to it at home day and night, I think you will come back when you are tired outside, but you are good, you don't know your mother's heart at all, you will leave when you say you will go, and if you come back in a year, you really don't know how to return earlier, and you don't know how to give your mother less heart!" ”
"Mother, my son knows that he is wrong!" Jiang Chenfeng had tears in his eyes and kowtowed to Tang three times.
Tang Shi hurriedly wiped his tears and helped Jiang Chenfeng up.
"Second brother." Jiang Wei smiled.
Jiang Chenfeng looked at Jiang Yu with a smile and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, the third sister seems to have grown a little taller." ”
"Still taller? It's all mothers. ”
Thinking of seven catties, Jiang Chenfeng hurriedly took out a delicate small box from his arms, "I gave seven catties here, hey?" Why didn't you see him? He should be able to speak now, right? Hurry up and hug it out, I still want to hear him call me uncle. ”
Speaking of being angry, Jiang Wei said before Tang opened his mouth: "Unfortunately, the emperor recognized Qijin as a righteous son, and held Qijin tightly in the palace a few days ago, saying that he wanted to be a companion." It is not easy for us to resist the decree as courtiers. Seven catties are in the palace. But six pounds at home. ”
"Six pounds?" Jiang Chenfeng was a little confused.
"Yes, the eldest sister gave birth to a daughter half a month ago, because she was born with six catties and six taels, my father-in-law named her six catties, and her big name was Sister Jue."
"The eldest sister has a child? I have a niece again? ”
"But no, in the future, the two children will surround you and call your second uncle, and you will eat, drink and play, and you will not be annoyed to death?"
"What's the annoyance!" Jiang Chenfeng was overjoyed, thinking that Jiang Yan was still in confinement at this time, and it was not good to meet, but he really wanted to meet Liujin, but since he came back, he had time to do so, so he only said: "I still want to go and see my uncle and aunt." ”
"It should. You're welcome. Tang smiled: "We are here thanks to the care of my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I have never treated us as outsiders, and we have always been treated as if we were our own family. Sister Yan and Sister Yu are talking about good family affairs. ”
Jiang Chenfeng listened to Tang's words about "marriage", hurriedly stopped her words, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go, by the way, why didn't I see Sister Jiao'er?" ”
Tang was not lightly angered by Jiang, and only said, "She is at your father's." Go back and see your father. Now he also lives in the house. ”
"Yes, mother." Jiang Chenfeng, Jiang Yu, and Huo Shijiu walked behind Tang together, and the three exchanged glances, and in front of Tang, they did not mention Jiang Xuewen.
The group left the front yard and went to the top of the back house, accompanied by the next person. Jiang Chenfeng also walked this road back then, and at that time, he still accompanied his mother, eldest sister, and third sister to ask Huo Nineteen to open up and let his father out of prison, but today he is going home, and he is very intimate and familiar.
After those feelings were settled, Jiang Chenfeng felt a lot more calm and thinking in his heart.
I was about to talk to Huo Jiujiu, grateful for his care for his parents and sisters these days, when he suddenly heard a coquettish reprimand from far and near: "You still don't stop for me!" Run around again, be careful my dad chop you to make a pig-killing dish! ”
"Penumbra, you still don't block it!"
"Miss, I'm chasing, I can't catch up!"
……
Suddenly, the black shadow flashed, and I saw the big fat pig with black flowers on a white background rushing over from the moon gate, chasing the two of them behind, the one in front of him was wearing a light green short coat and trousers, black hair wrapped under the turban, and the one with thick eyebrows and big eyes was Huo Chuliu, who was running fast, and she was followed by her maid penumbra.
"Ah, sister-in-law is so good, you're here! Help me catch this brute, Daddy's pigsty door was not nailed, and Dahua ran out! Huo Chuliu saw Jiang Yan and her entourage, and begged for help with joy.
Who knew that the big fat pig with a head of more than 200 catties actually rushed straight in the direction of Jiang Yu, Tang and the others.
Jiang Yu pulled Tang to the side to avoid it, and asked anxiously, "Are you going to live or die?" If I want to catch it, I'll be disemboweled! ”
"Huh? To live, to live! Ah! You'd better get out of the way! The first half of Huo Chuliu's sentence was to answer Jiang Yan, but the second half of the sentence was to talk about Jiang Chenfeng.
Jiang Chenfeng, who was dressed in a light blue Confucian shirt, was actually targeted by the big flower pig, he went to the left, the pig went to the left, he threw the girl away, and the big flower pig even chased after him.
"Big flower, you want to be a pig killer! Stop me, don't chase that boy!" Huo Chu Liuqi picked up the flower hoe in the flower bed casually, and rushed to the rescue in the direction of the big flower pig and Jiang Chenfeng.
Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wei stood aside with Tang Shi, and watched in amazement as a scene of pigs chasing people and people chasing pigs in the yard was staged.
By the time a few small guys came and trapped the big-flowered pig back into the pigsty with dirt, Huo Chuliu and Jiang Chenfeng were already dressed in wolves, and they were all panting and their sideburns were scattered.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You're my big brother's friend, right? My big flower has hit you. Huo Chuliu wiped the sweat on his face heartily, but forgot that his hands were stained with dust.
Jiang Chenfeng and Huo Chuliu have met, but they haven't paid attention to each other, so they naturally don't remember their looks very much, and in the past year, Jiang Chenfeng is no longer the white-faced scholar he used to be, but has matured a lot, his temperament has changed, and his complexion has changed. So Huo Chuliu didn't recognize him at this moment.
Jiang Chenfeng came back easily, and was chased around by the pigs, wiping sweat a little, and seeing this girl grinning, heartily showing her braided teeth, and the cat on her face, she also felt that she couldn't cry or laugh.
He just said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
"Big brother, I'll tell my dad when I turn around, slaughter the big flower and make amends for your guests." Huo Chuliu stuck out his tongue.
Jiang Yan finally couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and pushed Huo Chuliu's forehead: "My silly sister-in-law, where is this guest, it's my second brother who is back." ”
"Huh?" Huo Chuliu looked at Jiang Chenfeng grinningly, shook his head and said, "He is the second brother of his sister-in-law?" Wouldn't I be more offended? "No, I have to kill this pig myself, it's all my father's fault, what nails are not good to nail, let the pig arch out by itself!" "I stomped my foot and ran away in a hurry.
A young girl who also kills pigs......
Jiang Chenfeng felt a little incompetent in acceptance. (To be continued......)
