Under Lu Yi's repeated urging, he went back to his room to rest this summer. After she left, Cen Shoufang came in and reported to Lu Yi what happened after leaving Hangzhou, and what he said was about the same as what he said this summer.

"I lost the silver taels in my humble position, and I didn't take good care of the Chunyu girl, please punish the eldest son." Cen Shou knelt on one knee and pleaded guilty to Lu Yi.

"There is chaos everywhere in Liangzhejiang, no wonder you, but at the ferry, it is indeed your fault that you did not send the girls to safety first, and did not arrange proper people to take care of them."

Cen Shou didn't argue for himself, but said guiltily: "It's a poor consideration of the humble position, and I thought I could solve it quickly." ”

Lu Yi said lightly: "That's it, I am also responsible for this matter, several of you are all disregarding the future, Yang Yue is calmer, but you may not be willing to listen to his persuasion." Take it as a lesson, and you should get up first. ”

Cen Shou got up at this time, retreated, and met Mrs. Shen with a medicine bowl at the door. He wanted to take the medicine bowl and send it in, but Mrs. Shen refused: "I still have to take his pulse, I'll come." ”

There was no doubt that there was him, and Cen Shou politely retreated.

Seeing Mrs. Shen enter the house with medicine, Lu Yi got up and saluted: "Yan Yuan is not talented, and he has caused trouble to his predecessors again." ”

Motioning for him to sit down, Mrs. Shen brought him the medicine bowl and said with a slight smile: "You don't have to accept my affection, I saw it in Brother Lu's face last time; This is for my sake, this summer's face. If you want to thank them, you just have to thank them, but you can't thank me. ”

Lu Yi lowered his eyes and smiled, and after a while, he raised his eyes and asked, "In this way, the seniors treated Ah Rui's injuries for the sake of this summer?" ”

"People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, since this child calls me aunt, I naturally have to be kind to her." Mrs. Shen paused, and then asked, "Lord Lu, you rushed with an injury this time because you were worried about her safety, right?" ”

Lu Yi has been emotionally introverted since he was a child, except for this summer, he didn't want to show it in front of others, and at the moment he just played Tai Chi lightly and skillfully, and said with a smile: "General Qi led the troops to the battle, the troops in Xinhe City were empty, and the people in the city were powerless to resist, which is indeed uneasy." ”

Seeing that he refused to answer directly, Mrs. Shen was not annoyed, and went straight to the point as if gossiping: "I see that I am very concerned about you this summer, so I have to ask more about some things." With her identity, it's not easy to marry into the Lu family, right? ”

I didn't expect Mrs. Shen to ask so simply, Lu Yi smiled: "What do you mean by senior?" ”

"Have you ever thought about marrying her?" Mrs. Shen then asked.

Lu Yi was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "This voice this summer is really not in vain, when I was in Hangzhou, she told me that you treat her more than your own mother." Why, now you are even planning for her life! ”

When it comes to Tai Chi, although Mrs. Shen is older than Lu Yi, she is not as good at this as he has lived in officialdom for a long time.

Mrs. Shen frowned slightly, and was about to speak again, but Lu Yi asked first.

"By the way, I don't know if my predecessors have heard of General Yu Dayou?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Shen was stunned, Yu Dayou is a native of Quanzhou, Fujian, and he is also a little famous in Quanzhou......

"Recognize it or not, seniors have to think about it for so long? Isn't that too cautious? ”

"I seem to have heard of it a little, but it's been a long time ago, and I can't remember it clearly."

"General Yu worships under Li Liangqin, I heard that Li Liangqin has accepted a total of two disciples, in addition to General Yu, there is also one of his closed disciples." Lu Yi kept paying attention to her expression, "I heard that this person is still a distant relative of your Lin family, presumably the seniors should also recognize it." ”

Mrs. Shen's face was not shocked, and she said lightly: "I think back then, our Lin family was also a big family in Quanzhou, and there were many people who came to recognize their relatives, and some distant relatives were just occasional clans, I could recognize them anywhere." ”

What she said was not leaky, but Lu Yi just heard her desire to cover it up.

"The seniors didn't even ask who this person was, so how could they say they didn't recognize it." Lu Yidao.

“…… Who is this person? ”

"His surname is Yang, and his single name is a single character, and I heard that he later entered Beijing and changed his name." Lu Yi stared at her and said slowly, senior, think about it, can you think of this person? ”

Mrs. Shen replied quickly: "I can't remember." ”

Lu Yi looked at her, did not hide the exploration in his eyes, and after a long time, he retracted his gaze and smiled easily: "I remember, when I was in Hangzhou, I mentioned that the name Yang Chengwan was very familiar this summer, like the name of an old man." ”

has been forced here by him, Mrs. Shen doesn't know how much Lu Yi has found, if he is just playing tricks on himself, she must not fall into his trap. Even if it is an admission now, he can't get any grip on it.

"Yes, it just sounds familiar."

"That's a coincidence, the name that Yang Li changed after entering Beijing is Yang Chengwan, and the predecessors said that they were old people, so how could they not remember him."

Mrs. Shen pretended to be surprised: "Such a coincidence, could it be the same name and surname?" ”

"Then I don't know." Lu Yi sighed, "It's a pity, Yang Zhutou was also in Yangzhou at that time, it would be nice if the two of you could see each other." ”

"yes, that's a shame." Mrs. Shen pretended to be calm, smiled slightly, and pushed the medicine bowl over, "Lord Lu, the medicine is getting cold, you better drink the medicine first." Your injuries have not healed, so you need to rest more and worry less about these hurtful things. The last sentence clearly meant something.

"Thank you seniors for your concern, Yan Yuan remembers."

Without waiting for him to drink the medicine, let alone check the pulse, Mrs. Shen went out without even taking the tray and went straight back to her house.

Inside the house, the beggar was holding a bunch of wormwood to smoke mosquitoes everywhere, and every corner was smoked, even under the bed. Seeing that Mrs. Shen's face was wrong when she entered the door, he asked in surprise, "What's wrong?" ”

"I just went to your good grandson and wanted to ask him if he has any plans to marry this summer." Thinking of the conversation with Lu Yi, Mrs. Shen let out a long breath and felt tired and panicked.

"And then? Did he say to marry or not to marry? ”

"He didn't answer me at all, and in turn he tried to talk to me." Mrs. Shen didn't have a good breath and said, "Jinyiwei! There really isn't a good stubble. ”

"How dare he take your words?! It's against him! Uncle Beggar was indignant, "In terms of seniority, he should still call you grandma." I'm going to get him now. ”

Mrs. Shen looked at him and said angrily: "Who is his grandmother, am I that old?" ”

"No, no, of course not!" Uncle Beggars began to roll up his sleeves. "Say, do you want him to bear the guilt, or kowtow and admit his mistakes?"

"Don't make a fuss, I'm worried." Mrs. Shen rolled him up and dusted him down again, and said with a frown, "I didn't expect that this time he went to Cen Gang, and he actually hit him crookedly, so that he could find out Yang Chengwan's details." I'm really worried that if he investigates it again, he may find out what happened back then. ”

"What happened back then?" Uncle Beggar said, "You have to let me have a bottom in my heart, in case something happens, I can deal with it." ”

Mrs. Shen motioned for him to close the door first, and then said softly, "Didn't you keep asking me why I was different from others this summer?" Because I guess it's my sister's baby this summer. ”

"Ahh Uncle Beggar was amazed.

Mrs. Shen told the story of the year -

"This summer's master is not called Yang Chengwan, his name is Yang Li. Yang Li's uncle is my second aunt's cousin, and he is also a relative, and he often comes to my house. At that time, I was still young, and I used to play with him, and my sister often played with us in order to watch me. I remember that he carried a sachet on him, which he cherished very much, and the stitching work seemed to come from his sister's hand. Come to think of it, they were already in love at that time, but I didn't understand. ”

"Yang Li is good at kung fu, and he often helps my family escort medicinal materials when he is free, and his father values him very much. It's a pity that my mother and my second aunt have always had a rift, and I saw that he had affection for my sister, so I didn't allow him to go to my backyard, and I couldn't even see him with my sister. Later, I don't know who matched, and my sister was promised to Xia Yan's son Xia Changqing. ”

"Nanjing and Quanzhou are so far apart, my sister is really married from afar. I remember that she secretly cried several times before she got married, I didn't understand, I thought she was just reluctant to give up her father. On the day she got married, I saw Yang Li standing in the corner looking at the sedan chair. I ran over to him and told him to come and play with me. But he said he was leaving, too. I asked him where he was going, and he said he was going to the capital to build something so that people would no longer look down on him. ”

"Yang Li has been gone for several years, and I haven't heard from him again, I didn't know that he had changed his name at that time, but I just felt that this person seemed to have disappeared in the world. And then ......"

Mrs. Shen paused for a while, and when Uncle Beggar saw that her face was pale, he poured her another cup of hot tea.

After taking a few sips of hot tea, holding the teacup in the palm of her hand, absorbing some warmth, and calming down before Mrs. Shen continued:

"Later, I received a letter from my sister, in which she seemed to know that the Xia family was going to be in trouble, she told me that she had temporarily entrusted her daughter to Yang Li, and said that Yang Li was now renamed Yang Chengwan, and he was a Jinyi guard in the capital. If she does not escape this fate, she will ask me to raise her daughter in the future. ”

"At that time, I didn't know what happened, so I could only send people to inquire around, but within two days, I heard the news that Xia Yan was beheaded, and my brother-in-law's family was assigned, and something happened on the way. I wanted to look for Yang Chengwan again and take the child to my side, but I heard that Yang Chengwan was imprisoned in Beizhen Fusi and had no way to live. ”

"I wanted to go to the Shen family to inquire, but I didn't expect that Shen Lian was also assigned, and the Lin family was also raided because he implicated the Xia family and the Shen family at the same time. The servants of the retinue took the silver taels and fled, and I had to go back to my hometown alone, and I happened to meet you who were bitten by a snake...... You know what happened next. Mrs. Shen raised her eyes and looked at Uncle Beggar.

Only then did Uncle Beggar know that Mrs. Shen's silence over the years had been so complicated, he thought for a moment, raised his eyes and smiled: "At that time, when I met you, you were very angry, not like a down-and-out lady at all." ”

"Daddy said that many skills are not pressing, and my sister and I have been learning medical skills from the old gentleman in the museum since we were children. I don't want to marry, and it's more than enough to support myself by practicing medicine. ”

"That's that, you're the pillar of our family, the big boss!" Uncle Beggar flattered.

Mrs. Shen was amused by him, and then fell into sorrow and said: "Now, Lu Yi has found out that Yang Chengwan is Yang Li back then, I am worried that he will continue to investigate, what if he finds out his true identity this summer?" ”

"Wait," Uncle Beggar still didn't understand something, "Since Yang Chengwan was in prison back then, why do you still think that this summer is your niece?" ”

"This summer's eyebrows and eyes are actually very similar to my sister, but my sister is gentle and virtuous, but the two of them are very different in temperament, so I didn't think about it at first. It wasn't until that day in Yangzhou Mansion that I learned that Yang Chengwan was this summer's master, and I suddenly noticed that there were many similarities between this summer and my sister, and it can be said that the more I look at it, the more similar it becomes. ”

"This ...... Just based on appearance," Uncle Beggar felt that this thing was unreliable, "Do you think, could it be that you are thinking about this child in your heart, and there happens to be news of Yang Chengwan, and this summer is Yang Chengwan's apprentice, and the name is coincidentally occupied by a Xia character, so the more you look at her, the more similar she is, the more affirmative she is, the more affirmative she is, the more she looks more like, the more she looks like, the more she looks like ......"

His words were so tongue that they were about to tie their tongues, and Mrs. Shen interrupted him and shook her head firmly: "No, my feelings won't be wrong, this summer must be that child." And in the previous sister's letter, I said that this child was naughty, and his chin was knocked on the edge of the flower pot, and a lot of blood was shed, and a small scar was left. ”

Uncle Beggar rubbed his tongue before saying, "I think about this, it's best if you can meet Yang Chengwan and ask clearly." ”

"Right now, he is in Yangzhou, it is not easy to meet, and ......" Mrs. Shen still shook her head, "Jinyiwei has many ears and eyes, and I am worried that Lu Yi will find out." ”

"I don't think you have to worry about him, didn't you say that he was very good to that girl."

Mrs. Shen shook her head and sighed: "But all people are inevitably seeking advantages and avoiding harms, and Mingzhe protects himself, at that time, my Lin family was defeated, and I have seen a lot." Although he is good to this summer at the moment, the two have no marriage contract after all, and if something happens this summer, he can immediately make it clear. As long as he doesn't marry her, I have to be wary of him. ”
