Chapter 103: Twists and turns
Yecheng has a long history, and in the long river of time, it has always been a prosperous city outside the West, and it can be compared with the capital Xidu in all aspects.
Its abundant wine is famous all over the world, and as soon as you enter the city gates, you can smell it, and everyone is a hospitable person, so that people are in the winter snow, and the whole body is hot as if they have drunk a glass of warm wine.
A house in the east of the city has recently been filled with a few outsiders, and the neighbors are looking at it curiously, thinking in their hearts, according to the rules, stay for a few days, and when they are settled, they will have to bring their own wine to visit.
But the people in the house are very mysterious, and they only see two little girls going in and out to buy things on weekdays.
After a few days, many subordinates were added, but I never saw the master show up.
Finally, one day, when the snow was not as heavy as it had been a few days before, I saw many people come out with a slender girl in their arms.
The woman was dressed in a cloak of pink satin and white velvet, with a hat that covered her hair and ears tightly, and an umbrella was held in the way, and before the crowd could see her clearly, they saw her get into the carriage and leave in a hurry.
Someone was fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of her eyebrows and eyes but her temperament was cold, and the bridge of her lips and nose was as fine as it was carved, which was perfect. There seems to be a flower-shaped birthmark on the forehead, the vermilion is commensurate with the snow skin, and the small embellishment on it, such as the fat jade inlaid with ruby, is the icing on the cake, highlighting the stunning appearance.
Stunned and stunned, the man couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, looking at the direction where the carriage left, the man couldn't help muttering: "The heavenly maiden is just like this, I have no regrets in this life." ”
The carriage was in a hurry, and stopped in front of an old but sheltered house on the outskirts of the city, Yu Zhao lifted the curtain and looked at it, and Lianye hurriedly came over and stretched out her hand to help her get out of the car. "Miss, I heard that this is it, and I called the doctor overnight to come and see it, saying that the limit of old age and frailty is approaching, and there is nothing I can do."
Hearing this, Yu Zhao nodded, thinking of Yu Lu's expectant eyes, and sighed regretfully. Walking forward on the withered grass and fallen leaves of the courtyard, rustling.
Walking to the door, Yu Zhao knocked lightly. An old voice inside immediately came, and he asked very eagerly, "But Min Hong'er?" ”
Min Hong'er, a flower that grows in adversity in Spanish, is mostly used by parents to give their daughters names. Yu Lu suddenly remembered that day, only to feel that the voice of his father Aji was the same in his ears, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Now the person in it should not be wrong.
Hearing Yu Zhao hesitate and not answer, the person inside knew that it was not the person he wanted to see, and said in frustration: "Whoever it is, come in." ”
With permission, Yu Zhao gently pushed the door, the wooden door was old, and when it was touched, it made a piercing creak, echoing the sigh of the old man inside, which made people feel extremely dull to hear.
The sunlight shone in with the door opened, and the old man on the bed looked like a tree, and he struggled to open his eyes, and after seeing Yu Zhao's face clearly, he was slightly surprised. After some speculation, he told in a dumb voice: "Your eyebrows and eyes are very similar to your grandmother." ”
The old man's weak voice was kind, and Yu Zhao was moved when he heard it, and he called tentatively: "Grandfather? ”
"Don't dare to be called that by Miss." The old man shook his head again and again in denial, and after speaking, with the last bit of strength he straightened up, his hands trembled, and reached under the pillow to take out a letter. "You didn't let Min Hong'er know that I was right, I didn't fulfill my duties as a father, I didn't give birth to her, I didn't raise her, and I don't deserve to make her sad for me."
Hearing this, Yu Zhao was puzzled, and couldn't help frowning, only to see the old man unfold the yellowed letter paper, with tears in his eyes, and said with emotion: "In my lifetime, I can still find descendants for General Nanrong to make up for the crime of dereliction of duty that day, I die without regrets, and I die without regrets......"
As soon as the words fell, Yu Zhao was about to open his mouth to ask about the doubts in his heart, but he heard a noisy outside, noisy, Lianye went out to see, and came in to inform: "Miss, there are a lot of people outside." ”
Yu Zhao immediately became vigilant, but heard the old man say: "Miss don't panic, they are Min Hong'er and your relatives, I raised her back then, just to repay her loyalty, I don't want to live up to General Nanrong's expectations, and I deserve to end up so lonely." ”
The last words of the old man's words were like a sigh, and after this sigh, he lowered his head and closed his eyes and stopped breathing.
Seeing this scene, Yu Zhao didn't have time to be surprised, because an old woman's voice came from outside, and she asked as if she was very anxious: "Where are the people?" Where is it? ”
Yu Zhao hurriedly went out to check, and collided with the richly dressed old woman, looking at each other, all of them slightly startled.
Anyone who has seen Yu Lu can see at a glance that although the old woman's face in front of her is full of vicissitudes of wrinkles, her facial features are erect, and it can be vaguely concluded that when she was young, she was also a stunning beauty, and her face was very similar to Yu Lu, as if carved out of it.
With just one glance, Yu Zhao could know what the relationship between the two of them was.
When the woman saw Yu Zhao, she covered her chest and was surprised, wiped her eyes blurred with tears, tried to see Yu Zhao's beautiful eyes, and then secretly speculated on her age, and then understood everything. was helped to approach quickly, hugged her, howled and cried, opened his mouth to speak, but was so excited that he couldn't open his mouth.
The breath was also chaotic, the shortness of breath seemed to be out of breath, and the person next to him was also moved, wiping his tears and persuading: "Madam, don't be like this, this is a good thing, don't scare the young lady." ”
Being hugged by her, Yu Zhao's body stiffened, and he was indeed a little frightened, and he was worried that the woman in front of him was really excited and had a good time, so he involuntarily reached behind her back to help her breathe.
After a while, she finally saw that the old woman was relieved, she looked at Yu Zhao again with tears in her eyes, and then tentatively stretched out her hand, caressing the red heart of Yu Zhao's forehead, and muttered: "This is fate, God is destined, you are the child of my Nanrong family......"
Yu Zhao just wanted to explain, but the old woman snatched the words again, and she asked eagerly, "Child, where are you Aji?" Where's my Min Hong'er? ”
Yu Zhao was stunned, and Mu Mu replied: "She has inconvenient legs and feet, so I didn't let her come over." ”
"Okay, you take me to see her, your ancestor has gone to Xidu on an errand, and grandmother will take you home first."
Saying that, Mrs. Nanrong didn't wait for Yu Zhao's reaction, and stubbornly pulled her to take the same carriage, Lianye was a little uneasy, and wanted to keep up with Yu Zhao but was separated by many guards, calling Yu Zhao from afar.
Being stubbornly pulled by Mrs. Nanrong, Yu Zhao felt that it might be too rude to break free, so he had to turn his head and instruct: "It's okay, go ahead and lead the way." ”
For some reason, Xu is blood relationship is subtle implication of intuition, and the kind woman in front of him is what makes Yu Zhao feel at ease and trusted. Especially the phrase 'Take you home.' It touched a string in Yu Zhao's heart.
The mother and daughter have been adrift all their lives, and have never had a place to live in peace, only each other, and often separated, how to talk about home, how to talk about family. Therefore, the sense of belonging is the most lacking, and when you get a little bit, you feel moved and cherished.
What's more, Mrs. Nanrong was so enthusiastic in front of her, she didn't let go of Yu Zhao when she got into the car, and asked her questions one by one. "Good boy, how old are you?"
Yu Zhao replied truthfully: "It will be nineteen in a few days." ”
Mrs. Nanrong wiped her tears and said distressedly: "You Aji gave birth to you at the age of seventeen?" At that time, her body had not yet grown, and she must have suffered a lot over the years. ”
This matter is mixed with joy and sorrow, Yu Zhao is not good at comforting people, and he doesn't know what to say at this time. Then I heard her ask tentatively, "Who is your father?" ”
Yu Zhao shook his head and replied without hesitation: "It's dead, it's not a good person." ”
Hearing her say this, Mrs. Nanrong immediately guessed the situation, hugged Yu Zhao distressedly, and sighed with tears: "I thought that the Nanrong family would survive for a hundred years, and it would be extinct when it came to me and the master's generation, but I didn't expect that God was pitiful, but it can be regarded as making us wait." ”
Too many unexpected things happened one after another in one day, Yu Zhao couldn't make sense of it, and couldn't help asking, "How can Madam confirm that I, Aji, is your daughter?" ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Nanrong gently held her face and looked at it carefully, and after confirming it again, she informed the reason: "Your pair of sheared pupils are unique to the Nanrong family, and they may not be obtained, your Uncle Aji doesn't have them, but you are lucky to have the same eyes as your grandfather." What's more, the birthmark on your forehead is similar in shape to your uncle's daughter, who died young, and the position is almost the same. It can be seen that everything has its own heavenly arrangement, and Nanrong's lineage will not end in this generation as others say. ”
She kept talking, Yu Zhao listened patiently, the impact was too great, and she still couldn't react. The carriage and horses gradually got closer to the house where they lived, but Mrs. Nanrong became more and more nervous and restless.
But when the car stopped, I couldn't wait to get out of the car. The road was a little slippery, and Yu Zhao slowly led the way ahead.
When I walked to the inner garden, I saw Yu Lu coming up from the house, and asked anxiously from afar: "Zhaozhao, have you found it?" ”
Looking at her swaying figure, Yu Zhao sighed in his heart, took a deep breath, and replied softly: "Aji, I found it." ”
