The eyes of everyone were like wolves, and Xiangling was so frightened that she just wanted to retreat, but there was a screen behind her, where could she escape.

Suddenly, a figure stopped in front of him, blocking the gaze of others.

"What are you doing, look at what you are doing to scare people!"

Jia Qing looked at Jia Baoyu and the others with dissatisfaction.

"What if you scare her out? Who will take care of it then? ”

As soon as Jia Qing said this, everyone looked away together. Speaking of which, if this rumor made up by Jia Qing spreads in the mansion, it will be like putting an invisible protective shield on Xiangling! As long as there is a little taboo in my heart, I am afraid that I will not dare to bully her anymore.

Jia Mu said: "Okay, don't look at it, when your sister-in-law brings someone here, you will know whether it is true or not." ”

Only then did everyone rest their curiosity.

Jia Qing walked back to his position and sat down, and at this time Daiyu suddenly said to him: "Second brother, you said that you met that old Mr. Zhen when you were in Yangzhou, and promised to help him find his daughter, why haven't you heard about it before?" ”

Jia Qing said casually: "I forgot about it when I was too busy all these years......"

Daiyu said: "Since I forgot, I should have forgotten it for so many years, how can I still remember his words so clearly?" ”

You know, Jia Qing has forgotten where he lives, and he shouldn't just remember the words of the Taoist priest.

Uh, Jia Qing looked at Daiyu in amazement, not understanding why she came to "pick thorns". What made Jia Qing even more unexpected was that Jia Baoyu actually gave a reason before him:

"Perhaps, because the Taoist priest really has a spell, he must have cast a spell on the second brother, so that the second brother can remember his words so clearly."

"Well, I don't know...... However, I think that the possibility that Brother Bao said is very great! Jia Qing said ambiguously, he didn't want to make up one lie after another, anyway, the goal had been achieved, and there was no intention to study more.

Xichun looked at the gap and asked, "Brother, what gift did you bring us this time?" ”

When Daiyu heard this, she smiled and stopped pursuing the previous question.

"Sister Lin, what are you laughing at?" Tanchun asked.

"No, I suddenly remembered a joke, that's why I laughed."

Jia Qingdao: "That, that, haven't you given Sister Lin's gift yet?" ”

"Given it, it's so diverse!"

"In that case, you're still looking for me? What do you want all those gifts for? ”

Xichun said: "Save, I've saved a lot, and I've put it all in the painting." ”

"Xichun, my brother told you, you save these gifts, and you don't need them, and you lock them in the house all day, how boring are they?

So, this time, my brother won't give you a gift for the first time......"

"Where there's boredom, I watch them a lot." Xichun muttered, and then knew that Jia Qing might not have brought her a gift back, and the expression of anticipation slowly dissipated.

Jia Qing scratched his head, touched his body, and finally touched a newly made sachet. After seeing that Qingwen was not here, he handed it to Xichun.

This small sachet was made for him when Qingwen was idle on this trip, and he only carried it for a few days.

Tanchun smiled when he saw it: "Second brother, people say that things are uneven, you are only afraid that Xichun will be unhappy, and you are not afraid that me and my second sister will be unhappy?" ”

Jia Qing said bitterly: "Good sister, you can spare me, or I'll give you a discount?" ”

Last time in Yangzhou City, Jia Qing patronized the old house, so he didn't buy gifts for his family. Later, on the boat back, he saw a large pile of gifts from Daiyu, and Jia Qing wanted to ask her to come out to give him some, but unfortunately Daiyu didn't agree, so he let him get off the boat and buy it himself.

Jia Qing thought about it, if he bought it alone, it would be like a routine, and if he bought it every time, it wouldn't be interesting, so forget it.

Unexpectedly, Xichun calculated that he would come back with gifts, so he took the initiative to ask. Jia Qing didn't want to disappoint her, so he took one of his personal belongings to her.

However, now that Tanchun is blocking him with words of inequality, where does he have so many things to send?

"Yes, how much does the second brother plan to discount?" Tanchun smiled.

She's not cherishing spring, it's just a joke.

"How much do you want?"

"Ho-ho, of course, the more the merrier."

"Why don't I make up a year's monthly money for each of you?" Jia Qing thought about it and said tentatively.

Tanchun was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Second brother, you just asked the ancestors for New Year's money unsuccessfully, why did you suddenly become so generous?" ”

Jia Qing said: "You don't understand, I gave you this money, what can you do with it?" It's not about buying needles and threads, and then everyone makes me dozens of sets of clothes and shoes or something, and when the time comes, I will even save my salary, hehe. ”

Yingchun was always smiling, and when he heard the words, he said, "Second brother, what do you want so many clothes and shoes for?" ”

Jia Qing looked at her and said with a smile: "Isn't it a new year, naturally I have to wear new clothes and hats!" I can wear clothes very well, and I have to change several sets a day, so I can't prepare more? ”

Tanchun smiled: "If that's the case, we won't dare to accept your money." Dozens of sets of clothes must not exhaust people to death. ”

Daiyu said: "What are you afraid of, just do one or two things for him when the time comes." ”

......

Talking and laughing, I soon saw You Shi coming back again.

"Old lady, people have been brought."

Mother Jia was talking to Aunt Xue when she heard the words and stopped, "Okay, quickly call her in." ”

"Yes."

You Shi turned around and went out, and soon came back, followed by the slightly restrained Feng Shi.

"The woman has seen the old lady ......"

When she came, You had already told her that when she entered the door, she would first greet the person at the top, who was the ancestor of her family.

Fortunately, in the end, she used to be a rich wife, except for a slight sense of restraint, the etiquette is still good, she is dressed cleanly, and her demeanor is not vulgar, so Jia Mu nodded secretly.

"Mrs. Zhen, please take a seat."

"Old lady Xie." Feng replied, and then sat down lightly on the stool that the maid had brought over.

"Listen to my grandson, your master Zhen once saved my grandson, and the old man is here to express his gratitude again."

"Don't dare, don't dare." Feng stood up and said.

Jia Mu motioned to sit down, and then said, "The reason for inviting you to come, I guess you also know, so I won't say much." Xiangling girl, come here. ”

Jia Mu said, looking to the side.

I saw that Xiangling, who was originally shy and timid, was already in tears at this time, staring at the Feng family in the hall, but she couldn't bear to make a sound.

And Feng's mind was already stirring after Jia Mu's words were finished, and at this time, following the eyes of others, he soon saw the girl with a rouge mark between her eyebrows in the corner.

"Yinglian!" Feng Shi was not a question at all, but an affirmative tone, stood up directly, and took a few steps forward.

But Xiangling took a few steps back, tears raining down. She couldn't believe that she would ever see her mother again.

She was four years old when she was abducted, and it is impossible for a four-year-old child to completely forget her loved ones! The reason why she can't remember all the questions others ask her is because she has been beaten and scolded by Zizi since she was a child, and she doesn't dare to have the slightest thought of missing her parents' hometown.

Moreover, Zhengzi also "educated" that when he got to the new master, he couldn't reveal that he (Zhengzi) was not his father, otherwise he would be kicked out or even killed. (In fact, everyone knew she was abducted.) ）

In addition, she also knows that she will never see her parents and parents again, she just wants to live a better life in the future, a little better than the place where she was locked up in the city, and that's enough!

Therefore, whenever someone asked her about the past, she said that she didn't remember, first, so as not to be asked by others, and secondly, she was mainly afraid of upsetting the lord's family (Xue family).

However, when the living mother stood in front of him, although he didn't remember the face in his memory very well, how could the throbbing from the blood be suppressed by the soul that had been humiliated and became cowardly? So, she knew very well that this was her mother, and she longed, long, when she cried bitterly, the most longing for someone to be there to protect her!

"Yinglian, I'm my mother! O daughter, my daughter! ~”

Feng Shi did not have the previous pretended etiquette, and began to cry out regardless of the local occasion, his voice was sad with surprise, and the surprise was mixed with sadness.

No one in the hall shouted to stop her, including Jia Mu, who was moved to tears by this scene.

In such a situation, no one doesn't believe that they are really mother and daughter, because the love and admiration in the eyes of the two can't deceive people.

Aunt Xue may have been infected because of a trace of guilt in it, so the degree of infection was small, and seeing that Xiangling didn't dare to come forward to recognize her mother, she said, "Xiang...... Yinglian, I haven't come to see your mother yet. ”

At this time and now, the glimmer of hope in his heart Jia Yucun was nonsense, and the person Jia Qing wanted to help find was not Xiangling's idea of being completely discarded, and there was only blessing in his heart. Fundamentally speaking, the human heart is still good.

Feng's successive calls are not worth a word from Aunt Xue! Xiangling walked forward, but did not walk towards the Feng clan, but approached Xue Baochai.

In her cognition, Xue Baochai is the best person. Faced with such a situation, she didn't know what to do, so she subconsciously asked Xue Baochai for her meaning.

Xue Baochai was considerate and naturally understood, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, go over quickly, she is your mother." ”

"Mother... "......Xiangling finally shouted in a low voice the title that had not been called out in ten years, and her eyes only looked at the ground.

"My daughter!!"

Where could the Feng family endure it, he stepped forward and hugged Xiangling into his arms, and then the mother and daughter began to hug and cry.

After a while, Xu realized that they couldn't cry here, and both of them gradually stopped their voices.

Mother Jia wiped her soaked eyes with a handkerchief, and said in a low voice: "Okay, Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law, you can arrange a place for them to live, so that the two of them can talk well." ”

Jia Qingdao said: "Don't bother my sister-in-law, I have already arranged a temporary place for them to live, so let Rong's daughter-in-law send them over by car." ”

"It's fine." Jia Mu nodded.

"Thank you, old lady......"

Seeing that Mother Jia treated the two of them so kindly, Feng pulled Xiangling and knelt down and kowtowed to thank him. Then he kowtowed to Jia Qing and the others who were sitting next to him.

Yingchun and the others hurriedly stood up.

It's not pretentious, it's everyone's rule. Moreover, Lin Daiyu and the others are young girls who have not yet left the cabinet, and they can't accept people other than slaves to bow down, saying that they will lose their lives......

"Hurry up." Jia Mu said.

Kowtowed to Jia's mother again, and Feng stood up. From beginning to end, Xiangling only followed Feng's movements, she said whatever Feng said, and she did whatever Feng did......

Qin Keqing stepped forward to guide, and the Feng family was about to take Xiangling away, but found that he couldn't take his daughter away. When I looked back, I saw my daughter looking at a woman and a young lady in the hall with tears in her eyes.

Aunt Xue said, "Go ahead." ”

So, Xiangling knelt down again and kowtowed to Aunt Xue's mother and daughter alone, before standing up and going out with the Feng family.

After Xiangling's mother and daughter left, Jia Qing saw that everyone in the hall looked sullen, and said with a smile: "Everyone should be happy to see such a touching scene of mother and daughter recognizing each other, why is it still like this?" Look at me, how happy are you smiling? Hahahaha....."

Jia Mu scolded: "Do you think anyone is as heartless as you? ”

Jia Qing looked around at everyone again, and saw that even Mrs. Wang, who had a look of embarrassment, was stunned in his heart, and then thought with relief: Sure enough, aristocratic wives like Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu may be angry for a while, and they are ruthless in dealing with people. However, in most cases, they are willing to be charitable people, perhaps they think that maintaining a charitable heart can accumulate blessings!

"By the way, didn't I hear that Xiangyun was here, why haven't I seen her come out?"

Tanchun said: "She, after dinner, she said that she was going to talk to Qingwen, and she didn't know what to do, and she won't come back yet." ”

"Ancestor..."

Suddenly, Jia Lian walked in.

"What's the matter?" Jia Mu asked.

"The master told me to come in and have a look, if there is nothing wrong with the ancestor here, let me take the second brother out for a while, the master wants to see him."

Jia Baoyu, who was sitting, twisted his body unnaturally.

Jia Lian smiled and said, "The master is not looking for you, but for the second brother." ”

Jia Baoyu quieted down at this time.

"Since your second uncle has something to do with you, you should go first." Jia Mu said to Jia Qing.

Jia Qing stood up and said, "Yes", and said to You Shi: "Sister-in-law is leaving?" ”

You didn't want to stay at Jia Mu's place for long, so he stood up when he heard the words.

"You go too, it's not too early."

"Yes."

......

Out of the second gate, Jia Qing and You Shi and others parted ways, and followed Jia Lian to Rongxi Hall.

When he arrived at Jia Zheng's residence, Jia Lian reported: "Master, the second brother of Qing has arrived. ”

"Come in."

After entering the door, I saw Jia Zheng wearing regular clothes and sitting in the hall drinking tea.

"I've seen the second uncle."

"Sit down."

So Jia Qing sat down.

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Qing and didn't speak for a long time. Every time he saw Jia Qing, he couldn't help but think of Jia Baoyu. No way, the two are not only of the same age, but also more spiritual.

Although Jia Zheng is not very satisfied with Jia Baoyu, I have to say that Jia Baoyu is still quite satisfied......

"I don't know why the second uncle is looking for his nephew?"

Jia Zheng paused before saying: "It's not a big deal, it's just that some time ago, there were rumors in the government and the opposition that you were acting more radically in the land south of the Yangtze River...... He also beheaded a deputy chief officer under Chamberlain, but is there such a thing? ”

Jia Qing really didn't expect Jia Zheng to ask this first thing! He originally thought that Jia Zheng would ask about the White Lotus Sect or His Majesty's opinion.

This kind of thing, when he was in the south study, the emperor didn't even ask more!

"Second Uncle Hui, this is indeed the case."

Jia Qing said quietly.
