Volume 2: The Heart Has a Thousand Knots Chapter 53: Old Dreams
The ancient house is deep and secluded, among which the pavilions and pavilions all have great beauty, the ground has been almost completely covered by moss, there are several unknown flowers and trees swaying with the wind in the corner of the courtyard, the green bamboo is green, the clear spring is murmuring, there are many wind chimes mixed in the meantime, the breeze blows, the wind and water sound bamboo wind chimes, the sound is moving, but there is really a little deep in the courtyard, the willows pile up smoke, the curtain has no duplicate meaning.
It's just that the ancient house is beautiful, but it is really lonely, and there are only two people staying in the sunny place of the ancient house, one big and one small, all of which are daughters' homes.
The eldest one was about thirty years old, lying on a rosewood rattan chair, with willow leaves and eyebrows, three thousand troubles hanging down on his chest, bright eyes that seemed to be able to speak, speechless but moving in his own way.
The youngest is a girl about seven or eight years old, with a round face, a snow-white dress, like the elf, like a lying woman, the girl's eyes are extremely beautiful, and the aura is brilliant, even if she is still young, she is already a beautiful embryo.
The woman lying on the chair smiled calmly, but her face was quite pale, and her lips were bloodless, the woman turned her face sideways, looked at the girl standing in front of the chair and looked at her in a daze, stretched out her hand, and touched her face.
"Jingyi, is my mother ugly today, why do you always look at my mother like this?"
The girl shook her head, her lips were deflated, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes: "Mother is not ugly, it's Jingyi who misses her father, why doesn't he come to see Jingyi, and mother, your complexion has been getting worse and worse recently, are they the second aunt and the third aunt coming to bully you again?"
The woman smiled softly: "No, my mother is just a little tired."
"Really?" The girl pouted.
"Yes, how could my mother deceive Jingyi?"
"Hmm."
The woman's eyes were full of sadness, she sat up slowly, opened her arms, the girl obediently got into the woman's arms, the woman hugged it tightly, her chin rested on the girl's little brain, the two looked at the string of wind chimes not far away, there was a colorful butterfly resting on the wind chimes, her wings flashed, but she didn't move.
"Girl, if my mother disappears one day, can Jingyi take care of herself?"
The girl shook her head, and took her little fat fingers very seriously, one, two, three, and finally ten fingers were straightened together.
"No, Jingyi can't wear clothes, can't comb her hair, can't tie braids, and doesn't dare to sleep alone, well, also, there is Jingyi who is very afraid of the second aunt, and those two bad brothers, who bully people every day, if the mother suddenly disappears, Jingyi will be very sad."
The woman bit her lip stubbornly, and two lines of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, gently seeping into the girl's black hair.
"Mother, why are you crying?" The girl cried: "If your mother doesn't cry, Jingyi will definitely take care of herself, even if her mother suddenly disappears one day, really, as long as her mother doesn't cry now, Jingyi will do what she says."
The woman wiped her face with her hand and said a good word, which was extremely heavy, and seemed to have exhausted the strength of the woman's whole body and even her whole life.
"Well, Jingyi is really good, my mother doesn't cry, and if she cries again, it's a puppy, we can't let them see jokes in the second and third rooms, your father doesn't love us, let's love it ourselves, do you say it's okay!"
"Okay."
"Jingyi, don't be like your mother in the future, you must find a husband who is good to you, even if he is poor, it doesn't matter, as long as he listens to you, and ah, you must not let him interact too much with other girls, you must let him stay by your side all the time, let him make you laugh, don't lie to you, and don't let you cry."
"Mother, you are so strange today, Jingyi is still so young, how can she find a husband, Jingyi wants to accompany her mother for the rest of her life."
"Silly boy, my mother is going to leave sooner or later, how can I stay with you all the time?"
"Jing Yi doesn't care about this, anyway, my mother must always accompany Jing Yi, otherwise, otherwise Jing Yi will ignore you."
"Okay, good, my mother will always be with you, as long as you are willing to eat well, sleep well, and grow up happily, your mother will always be by your side."
"Well, Jingyi listens to her mother."
"Well, my mother cried just now, it must not look good, can Jingyi go outside to play for a while, my mother will come out to find you after putting on makeup."
The girl was a little puzzled, but she didn't think much of it, she ran out of the woman's arms, turned around and looked back, and saw her mother nodding and smiling, she was happy.
The mother is so strange, the girl thought to herself, she ran to the corner of the ancient house, where there was a white cat, the hair was soft and sticky to the body, the girl squatted down to touch it, the white cat meowed pleasantly, the girl did not find that before the woman left, the butterfly on the wind chime, suddenly flapped its wings and flew high, as if it was going to rush all the way to the sky before refusing to stop.
The girl touched the white cat, but suddenly felt a pain in her heart, she subconsciously got up and called her mother, no one answered, the girl cried out, she quickly trotted and rushed to the mother's room.
The door opened, and there hung a man on the beam, with a long tongue sticking out, and his eyes wide, and what was hidden in them, and the girl did not know, she just shouted a word in her heart.
"Mother!"
……
Pingyao Town, Liuke Building, Tianzi Room, the rising sun shines through the window, scattering countless lights, and there is a beautiful woman lying on the bed near the window.
She has beautiful willow eyebrows, and she also has an enviable three thousand troubles, her hair hangs down on her chest, the corners of her eyes are moist, and even her pillow is wet.
"Mother!" Jing Yiyi's face turned pale, and she sat up sharply, panting.
"What is this?" Miss An looked at the unfamiliar house in front of her with some confusion, and the memory of last night slowly woke up.
Quiet vaguely remembered that she seemed to be knocked unconscious last night, she quickly got up without thinking about it, and when she passed by the table, she picked up the dragon sword, wiped her face and rushed out of the door.
"Teacher Ye, Jinchen, wait for me."
Pingyao Town is not very big, and Jingyi is not interested in wandering around, and after a little discerning the direction of the Sage Village, the girl quickly left with her skirt.
Just walking, quiet and slowed down, and after passing a ruined temple, the girl finally couldn't bear it anymore, squatted on the ground, howled and cried, and the sound came far and wide.
Jing Jing Yi didn't expect that she would dream of her mother's deathbed, when she was only eight years old, she didn't understand anything, after her mother said those strange things stupidly ran to play, in the later years, she asked herself more than once, if she didn't go to play, would the result be different? If she followed her mother into the house, would she be reluctant to leave herself alone?
The answer is actually no, she knows, her mother really couldn't hold on back then, otherwise she wouldn't have thought of dying.
Antai, a negative man, once said one set after another when he was poor, and he was very good to his mother, but later as his status became higher and higher, his heart changed, and he accepted fifteen concubines, which is unique in the entire high-ranking official family in the capital, of course, other families are not without people who are even more excessive than him, and there are also groups of concubines in the family, but those people will at least pretend to be their wives, but Antai doesn't even have the heart to pretend to be one.
After his mother hanged herself, Antai was grief-stricken to the outside world, but Jing Jing Yi knew that he did not look sad at home, even before his mother's mourning hall, he still laughed very happily with those sluts in the second room, three rooms and four rooms, and Jing Jing Yi still remembers the face when he hugged the second room, which is really disgusting.
So since the death of her mother, she has never called Antai a father, and she didn't even say hello when she met at home, she called him his name directly, and Antai was most angry with her attitude at that time, so she, the most disgusting father in the world, began to let his second and third rooms bully the eldest daughter born to his wife every day.
Those sluts wish her mother died, and naturally they don't have a good face for her, they deduct this and that every day, and the food they send to her may not even be eaten by their subordinates, and her brother changes the law every day to bully her, and he also does things to Ling Ling who depends on her for his life.
Later, she met Master, the gold content of the second in the world does not need to be said, Antai's attitude towards her changed suddenly, and she declared that her favorite is his eldest daughter, and those sluts have also learned to be smart, yin and yang are inevitable, but they really dare not make any small moves.
However, Jing Yi, who has grown up, doesn't care what happens to them, after she became a monk, the first thing she did was to beat her two brothers for more than a month, one arm was broken, and the other was broken, as for those sluts, they were deliberately found by Jing Yi to find a reason, and the faces of those sluts were swollen.
After Antai heard about this, he was angry and menacing, and he came to find Jing Yi, but when Jing Yi put the dragon sword on his neck, the man was immediately stunned, and he didn't dare to let go of a fart.
But then it seemed that he felt faceless, and the dignified Prime Minister of Xichu actually asked the masters in his house to clean up the quiet, but no matter how tall those masters were, they could compare to her master?
After Chen Wenbo heard about this at the time, he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion with Chixiao, and scared those so-called masters into a pale, the old man only said one sentence, I don't care about the old man, I don't care about it, I don't care how you Antai is in the officialdom, in the future, no matter what Jingyi does, you will give me obediently, if you do such a pickled thing that is not a father, do you dare to cut off your head and feed it to the dog?
When personal force reaches the pinnacle of the world, the imperial power will not be so restricted, unless the court is ruthless, otherwise there is really no way to be a grandmaster like Chen Wenbo, of course, this is just an example, after all, there are only ten grandmasters, as for your other martial artists, if you don't want to die, it's better to be well-behaved, so it is impossible for the court to make such a big fight for him Antai.
And this is still some embarrassing family matter, for a face-loving person like Antai, he naturally will not publicize such ugly things, but he has suffered such insults, and he really doesn't care about it anymore with the consequences.
Jingyi did not live up to her master's hard work, over the years, it can be said that she is just a fart in Anfu, and the entire Anfu has to shake three times.
She is not interested in the affairs of the court, but in Anfu, even if you are the prime minister, you have to be obedient to me, I can call you by your name if I want, and I can fix your concubine if I want to.
Jingyi knows that from the level of her father, this kind of behavior is very excessive, and it can be said that she is unfilial, but for her Jingyi, since you are not a father, then why should I honor you? Since you killed your mother, since you let your concubine bully your daughter, then these are all you deserve, if you can have such a trace of compassion, how can I be quiet? Will you feel insecure? Will you become a hypocrisy that makes you sick?
Miss Ann cried for a long time, she always thought that after so many years of revenge, she should be very relieved and happy, but when she had this dream, she realized that some seemingly quick revenge did not actually make people happy.
Jingyi got up slowly, took a deep breath, and showed the same smile on her face as before, since the death of her mother, she has learned one thing, don't expose her true emotions at any time, even if it's crying, you have to find a place where no one is crying again.
Xiao Jinchen is an exception, he is the only man who can make Jingyi cry and make Jingyi desperate, so she is going to find him.
