Chapter 18: A Thousand Turns (12)

"Sister-in-law, please speak." Jing Yi looked at Fu.

"This is also something I did inappropriately, and I didn't explain it to you in advance - Mizhen is now recuperating in the house in Yuquan Lane. The house over there is a bit bigger and a little deserted, so I want to ask a few more people to take care of it. Brother Dong'er's aunt was on an errand over there and recommended grass beads. After all, Caozhu was once a descendant of the Tao family, and it was a person you used, and Mizhen didn't want to hire it. I know it, and I'll say that Grandma Qi, your heart, this little thing will not be counted. Mizhen also remembered that when she was in our house in the past, the little girl Caozhu had a good time with her. You also know that although Caozhu is a rough girl, she is also ingenious. Every day, weaving a flower basket, cutting a window flower, and making a hair cake are all good. It's still me who calls the shots, so I use grass beads...... It's also that I have a lot of things to do, and I forgot to talk to you for a while. Yesterday, my mother and I went to visit Mizhen, and we happened to meet Caozhu who quit her job. She has always done well, and Mizhen asked her the reason, but she refused to say. I just remembered and hurried to tell you, don't have any misunderstanding here, it's not good. Fu Lizhen looked at Jing Yi.

Jingyi listened to her narration and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law should tell me first." ”

Fu Lizhen looked at her.

Jingyi said: "Do you still disagree with me?" Two days ago, I went to the seventh and met Caozhu to listen to what she said. If Caozhu leaves the Tao family, he is no longer a slave of the Tao family, let alone mine. It is a good thing for the second lady to use her and give her a salary to make ends meet. Da"

"The seventh sister is really reasonable. In this way, I persuaded Mizhen to keep her for a little longer. Fu Lizhen said with a smile.

Jing Yi smiled and said, "This is a trivial matter, I don't know how the eldest sister-in-law and the second lady have become a big thing." He"

As they spoke, they also arrived at the gate of Tan Yuan.

Jingyi had something in her heart, so she didn't go in to greet Tao Jun, but only asked the Fu family to convey it on her behalf, and then returned to Langyuan.

When Zhang's mother saw her coming back, she went straight to Tao Xiang's study, opened the door and took a look, as if she was looking for something but couldn't find it, so she turned around and asked her: "Zhang's mother, where is today's newspaper?" Didn't you send it? ”

The daily newspaper was kept in Tao Xiang's study, and she occasionally flipped through it and came down to get it. At this point, the coffee table was empty. There were no newspapers from other cities or local newspapers that had arrived the next day.

"No, I don't." Zhang's mother saw that she was asking this, and hurriedly answered.

Jingyi frowned.

There must be something that can make the Tao family's father and son produce unpleasant newspaper content at the same time.

"Young grandma, do you want me to ask?" Zhang's mother asked.

Jingyi shook her head. After thinking about it, he said that I would go to the lower Luo Rui Hall, and took Qiu Wei out of the door. Zhang's mother went out, seeing that she hadn't even changed her clothes, she was still in the same riding costume, and it was too late to remind her...... Jingyi went out but didn't forget to go to Luo Ruitang. Instead, go in the opposite direction. Qiu Wei saw that her intention was to go to the residence of Tao Si and his wife, and followed her silently.

Jingyi arrived at Keyuan and happened to meet Tao Si to go out.

Tao Si went home for vacation this time, and he never saw him show his clothes, so he changed it today. Jingyi was also a little stunned when she saw it.

Seeing her coming, Tao Si Yamei exchanged glances, and Yamei smiled: "What am I talking about?" ”

Tao Si smiled, took the military hat, and said, "You talk, I will accompany my father out." ”

Yamei and Jingyi sent him out. When he left, Yamei turned her eyes to look at Jingyi and said, "Someone came to Nanjing just now, and he accompanied his father to see him." ”

"At this time......" Jingyi was shocked.

"I sent a special envoy, saying that I came to offer condolences on behalf of Chief Suo, and I think it means to supervise the war." Ya Mei looked at Jing Yi's expression, almost abruptly changed, and there was a faint anger, obviously very unhappy with this news.

Jing Yi did feel suddenly and angry. With Tao Xiang's arrogance, if he learns this, he will definitely be even more unhappy.

"No wonder...... By the way, what's on the radio this morning? And what is reported in the Central Daily? The newspaper was not delivered on time, so the second sister-in-law is here, right? The second brother and sister-in-law have the habit of reading the newspaper every day. Did you send me here? I don't usually read the newspapers. Jingyi asked.

Yamei asked rhetorically, "What do you care about all this?" Hurry up and pack your bags? Still thinking about it in my heart...... Talk to me around the bend, and look at me, I don't know how careful you are? Suspicious that the family is hiding it from you, right? ”

Jing Yi's face was slightly red, and she said, "I won't hide it from me, I'm afraid it's more from the eighth sister." I'll leave the day after tomorrow, and I don't want her to remember it before leaving, right? I should know, how can you hide it from me? ”

"Of course you should know. I'm not in favor of hiding it from you. Originally, you didn't ask, but I wanted to reveal it to you. Yuzhi still has to make a bet with me......" Yamei said, and went back to the house with Jingyi. Hu Niu'er came to get up, and Yamei went in to dress Cersei herself, and told Jingyi that the newspapers for the past two days were on the table in the back room and let her read them by herself. Yamei went to get busy, and soon saw Jingyi come in, and she stood on the bed and called the little aunt, she looked at Jingyi, "The news on the radio this morning is not like words." ”

Jingyi came over and sat down, listening to Yamei talk about how the news suddenly reported the battle situation in front of her. It was very different from the usual reports, which said that Tao Xiang's attack on Dihua was blocked, suffered heavy casualties, and retreated all the way...... It's like a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Obviously, it is even more ineffective than the ineffective counterinsurgency determined by the Public Opinion 61 Theory in the Central Daily.

"If you are an independent radio station, you will have limited impact." Jingyi said.

"Not to be underestimated. Independent radio has made a lot of noise about this argument, with ill intentions. Yamei frowned.

Jing Yi pondered for a moment and asked, "Who was sent by Nanjing?" ”

"Fei Yuming." Yamei replied.

Jing Yi remembered and said, "Why is it him." ”

"What are you talking about? Fei Yuming is the vanguard of the unification faction. However, he is a smooth person, and his relationship with various places is not bad. Recently, he has done a few things in a row, and he has been quite praised in front of Chief Suo, and he is red and purple. It makes sense to send him. However," Yamei said, looking at Jing Yi's frowning brows, "My father and he had a conflict over the military budget. My father slapped the table at the meeting. It's okay for Yuzhi to accompany his father to see Fei Yuming, but he is used to gags. ”

Jing Yi smiled when she heard this, and said, "With the second brother at the best, the situation will not be stiff." ”

"That's right." Yamei said.

Jingyi saw that Yamei still had to take care of Cersei, so she didn't bother her anymore, and said goodbye. Thinking that I hadn't been to see my aunt and grandmother yet, I went to Luo Ruitang. She walked all the way, frowning. Qiu Wei followed her closely, couldn't help it, and asked, "Miss, is my aunt's situation very dangerous?" ”

Jing Yi was speechless for a long time.

The roses outside the walls of the Rosa Hall have an overwhelming momentum, and the fragrance is even stronger with the rising temperature, which makes it almost difficult for people to breathe.

Jingyi stood down, took a deep breath, and then said, "I'm afraid so." But don't say that to anyone. Miss Eight went out immediately, especially not to reach her. ”

Qiu Wei was stunned for a long time, and said softly: "No wonder Adjutant Tu was anxious to blister. He must have known, but he refused to tell the truth to the young lady...... He had to wait to see the young lady away before he could go back to the front...... What's going on now? ”

"Naturally, the sooner he goes back, the better." Jing Yi said, seeing a trace of nervousness flash on Qiu Wei's face. As she walked, she looked at Qiu Wei again, "I think we have to postpone our trip." ”

"Miss?" Qiu Wei was surprised.

Jing Yi waved her hand to silence her.

In the current situation, she is bound to be unable to lift her feet and leave......

However, Jingyi did not announce this decision in advance. The Tao family is now focusing on these major events, receiving envoys and sending women to marry are the first priority, and her affairs are not so important. What's more, everyone is worried about the predicament in Xinjiang, and they can't care about what she wants.

On the 29th of April, it rained at night, and it continued to flow. Tao Eryi set off for Gui, and when she learned the news that she had come to see off her relatives and friends, it was inconvenient to rush to the airport, so she came to Tao's house early and waited to see her off.

Jingyi saw that her old classmate Ming Jiaojiao and others were in the outer hall, and then saw that Ren Xiufang was also there, all of them were friends of Er Yi, so she called Er Yi to come out and meet them specially. When Er Yi saw them, he finally couldn't help crying, and the women couldn't cry. alarmed Mrs. Tao and others, and had to come out to persuade them.

When the time comes, it is advisable to officially say goodbye to your grandmother and parents. Although the ceremony of sending off relatives is low-key, it is also grand. Jingyi sat in the car, and before going to the airport, the car went around the city in particular...... Jingyi sat beside Eryi, who was silent, and also looked at Lanzhou City in the mist and rain.

She used to go around the city in the same way with red silk. The sound of gongs and drums in her ears, the red in front of her, the lover around her at that time made her nervous and frightened all the time, people are close at hand, and her heart is as far away as the ends of the world...... At this time, it is really thousands of miles away, his life and death are uncertain, what about her?

She watched the plane carrying Eryi take off. The roar of the planes was deafening. Until the plane disappeared into the gray sky, there was still an echo in her ears.

Mrs. Tao and the others have already gotten into the car.

"Young grandma, go back." Tu Huyi stood behind her, holding an umbrella for her.

"Attu," Jing Yi turned and looked at Tiger Wing, "When will the second medical team enter Xinjiang?" ”
