Chapter 41: Reunion
At this time, it is already three poles in the sun.
Qian Jin shouted "Sister Hua", but no one answered, so he put on a dress and got up. He was overworked last night and woke up a little late. And the silkworm girl is a diligent person, and she has already gotten up and worked at this point.
He walked over to the table and poured a bowl of water to drink, but caught a glimpse of a note on the table and a sachet next to it. The note was written in slightly immature but neat handwriting:
Sir, all the silver taels in the house are locked in the cupboard, and I took two hundred taels. I also copied the patterns of those clothes. Master, forgive me for saying goodbye and don't read it.
Qian Jin smiled, and said that Sister Hua had also started to be naughty, and she made this kind of joke with him early in the morning. He walked into the courtyard and shouted, "Sister Hua, Sister Hua." ”
No one agreed.
Jin Taiming came out of the house and said suspiciously: "Didn't the flower girl go to the flower shop early in the morning?" ”
Qian Jin had a premonition that something was wrong, and hurriedly ran to Huajianfang, but he didn't find the shadow of the silkworm girl. Lao Fan saw the owner come to the door, and hurriedly came out to say hello, but he only had time to see the back of Qian Jin galloping.
Back in the courtyard, Qian Jin rushed directly into Jin Taiming's room, clasped his arm and asked sharply, "Jin Taiming, have you taught Sister Hua to write?" ”
Jin Taiming has never seen him so angry since he met Qian Jin. He desperately tried to break free, but his strength was too strong for Qian Jin, and he called out in a hurry: "What if I taught it?" ”
When Qian Jin heard this, his whole person seemed to be paralyzed. After half a ring, he asked with a depressed expression, "How long have you been teaching?" ”
"When I taught Li Liang and his sisters, Miss Hua often watched from the sidelines. Sometimes she would ask me words I didn't recognize. Jin Taiming rubbed his aching arm and asked suspiciously, "What happened?" ”
"Sister Hua is gone......"
"Gone, where did you go?"
"I don't know."
Jin Taiming pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Have you ever noticed something strange about the flower girl recently?" ”
Qian Jin didn't answer, and returned to the silkworm girl's room alone. On the table, the red and green sachet was exuding a faint fragrance. He opened it carefully, and inside were two strands of hair tangled.
Not long after he came to the capital, Qian Jin once expressed his intention to marry her to the silkworm girl, but the silkworm girl burst into tears, saying that she didn't want to ruin his future because of her widowhood. Afterwards, the silkworm girl cut a strand of hair, saying that she used the green silk knot to complete her love with herself.
Later, although the silkworm girl was much more cheerful, she always had a big mountain in her heart, that is, the world. If a woman of this world becomes a widow and remarries, she will be pointed to by a thousand husbands. Although the silkworm girl became the shopkeeper of the flower shop, how can this concept be changed in a while?
Since the last time the silkworm girl heard that Lao Qian was going to come to the capital, she has often been a little distracted. Qian Jin didn't pay much attention, thinking that she was about to meet her in-laws. In fact, the silkworm mother has always cared about her widowhood, and she doesn't want her master to be pointed at behind her back.
But where can she go as a weak woman?
Thinking of this, Qian Jin rushed to the backyard to lead a horse, and did not put on the saddle, opened the back door and rode out directly. After Erya left, Qian Jin bought a few horses and usually delivered goods to the winery.
At this time, it is not yet the hour, and it is not fast to come to the silkworm mother's house, but if you hurry up, you may be able to catch up.
When he arrived at the city gate, Qian Jin ignored the guards' loud obstruction, and rode his horse out of Yongding Gate directly, chasing all the way south along the official road.
An hour later, Qian Jin stood on a high post.
Looking at the official road that went all the way south, he muttered, "Sister Hua, why are you so stupid?" ”
At this time, a horse-drawn carriage slowly drove down a southbound path.
Inside the carriage were two beautiful women. One of them is the silkworm girl that Qian Jin is chasing hard, and the other is Yun Sanniang of Hongyuan Dart Bureau. The two of them deliberately chose to take the trail, afraid that Qian Jin would chase after them. If we talk about cause and effect, it is not very complicated.
It turned out that the silkworm girl had heard that Qian Jin had hired someone from the dart bureau to pick up her parents to Beijing, so she did the same. Yesterday, she quietly went to the Hongyuan Dart Bureau alone, and the people from the Dart Bureau escorted her. At this time, Old Man Yun had not returned from going south, and Yun Sanniang had taken the idea of all the big and small affairs of the dart game.
Yun Sanniang had seen silkworm Niang in the courtyard before, and she was rejected by Qian Jin, so she was a little cold to Silkworm Niang. When she heard that the silkworm girl was about to leave the capital, she said strangely: "Why do you want to leave suddenly?" Is that the bad guy asking you to go? ”
The silkworm girl couldn't, so she had to tell the truth one by one.
Yun Sanniang listened to it and sighed: "He is also a hard-working person." Well, the old man is probably coming back soon, and I just happened to go out for a walk. ”
Silkworm Niang naturally thanked her repeatedly.
Yun Sanniang asked again: "Since my sister wants me to give you a trip, do you have a place to go?" ”
Silkworm Niang was silent. Sangmu Village is now in ruins, and if you go back to your parents' home, you will definitely suffer a lot of cold eyes for no reason. The world is big, but she has become an ownerless duckweed.
Seeing this, Yun Sanniang smiled and said, "Sister, do you still want to see that negative man in the future?" ”
Silkworm Niang shook her head and said with tears in her eyes: "Since you have made up your mind to leave, it is naturally better not to see you in the future." ”
"In that case, let's go somewhere farther. How about sending you to Guanhai City? ”
"Isn't Guanhai City the hometown of the master, won't it be discovered in the future?" Silkworm Niang exclaimed.
"You can't say that, haven't you heard that the most dangerous places are the safest?" Yun Sanniang looked at the silkworm girl's flowery face, and said secretly in her heart: "That negative man must be very concerned about this girl, I simply sent her to the southernmost side, and asked him to spend more time looking for it, so as to avenge the refusal to marry that day." If I am questioned by Qian Jin in the future, I will shirk it on the grounds of sending the silkworm mother to his hometown. ”
The two agreed on the itinerary, so that they could meet at the city gate early the next morning, and set off for Guanhai City as soon as the city gate opened.
…………
Qian Jin didn't find the silkworm girl, and the whole person returned to the courtyard like a frosted eggplant.
Looking at the familiar room, his heart felt a large empty space. The quilt on the bed still has the body fragrance of silkworm mothers. Closing her eyes, it seems that the silkworm girl is walking around the room, and her laughter rings in her ears from time to time.
For three whole days, Qian Jin locked himself in the silkworm girl's room alone, and he didn't go out of the door or the second door.
Everyone was a little worried, so they discussed with Jin Taiming and asked him to persuade him.
Jin Taiming sighed and said, "If you have a heartache, you should come to the doctor with your heart, give him some time." ”
While he was talking, Lao Cao entered the door and said that a few people had come to the door, saying that they were looking for Master Qian.
Jin Taiming looked at the closed room of the silkworm girl, shook his head, and followed Lao Cao to the door. The person who came was the old man Yun of the Hongyuan Dart Bureau, and he was followed by a couple of people, ranging in age.
Old Man Yun was the first to speak: "This gentleman, can Qian Shi be at home?" ”
"I'm at home, but I'm afraid it's a little inconvenient to meet guests." Jin Taiming said with a difficult face.
A middle-aged man next to him stood up and said, "I'll go in and take a look, my baby can't deny his father when he becomes the champion." "It's the old money who speaks.
After Qian went north, Lao Qian has been living in Wen Tianzheng's house with Wen and Bao'er. Wen was reluctant to leave his father, so he stayed until May. It happened that Mr. Yun came to report quickly, saying that Qian was the top student in high school, and the family was naturally happy. After a little trimming, they went directly north along the Grand Canal with Old Man Yun by boat. It took almost three months to get to the capital.
When Jin Taiming heard this, he hurriedly rejoiced: "It turned out that Shibo was here, and now my brother is saved." So he briefly talked about the money that had been in the past few days.
Bao'er next to her listened to it and said hatefully: "Sure enough, as Emily expected, my brother has a good relationship in the capital." ”
Lao Qian heard the black line on his face, so he motioned to Jin Taiming to lead everyone into the house to settle down, and he went to knock on the door himself.
"Son, your father is here."
After a few breaths, the door opened. A man came out of the room, with a full beard and black eyes, and he was heard shouting in a hoarse voice, "Dad, you are here." Did Mother and Boa come too? ”
