Chapter Twenty-Nine: Heaven Rao, He Doesn't Forgive!
Qiushui County is still high and cloudy.
Mei Xiaoren accidentally found that her ears were particularly quiet these days, and there was always something wrong with her, and she thought about it for a while, as if it was because Jiang Rong was not there.
Yesterday, the movement of the Chu family's lawsuit was not small, why didn't the surnamed Jiang come out to join in the fun and dig up her handle
Mei Xiaoren thought that Jiang Rong had reined in, but who knew that the official said that the surname Jiang had left with Aqing a few days ago
She was so happy in her heart.
However, the euphoria did not last for half a day.
In the afternoon, several carriages came from outside the county government. When Mei Xiaoren heard the report, she went out to check, and saw a group of small servants surrounding the carriage, carrying down many wooden boxes of all sizes from it, and they did not move these boxes to her mansion at all.
Mei Xiaoren was inexplicable, and reached out to stop them, "Wait"
The little guy hurriedly asked, "What do you command?"
"What are you moving?"
"It's Jiang Gongzi's thing, Jiang Gongzi hired a carriage from our shop, asked us to send these things to the yamen, and said that as long as we tell the adult that it's his thing, the adult will let us in."
Mei Xiaoren unfolded the folding fan and shook it, it seems that some people really don't regard themselves as outsiders. She was about to ask the little girl where Jiang Rong was, but she saw that the figure had already swayed in front of her.
Jiang Rong greeted with a smile: "Villain, I haven't seen you for a few days, do you miss my son"
The corners of Mei Xiaoren's lips hooked, "I'll just say how peaceful you have been these days, it turns out that you are sick and you are not here." ”
Jiang Yi held a transparent jade Ruyi in his hand, he took the Ruyi and tapped Mei Xiaoren's shoulder, and said leisurely: "Don't remember this son, this son hasn't played with you enough, and he will never leave you." After saying that, he swaggered into the yamen.
Jiang Rong had only been out for a few days, and he had brought back so many things. Mei Xiaoren really wanted to see what rare things he had collected.
When she returned to the courtyard, she saw Aqing carrying things with the little ones inside and outside, and she saw Jiang Rong sitting at the stone table drinking tea, looking very good.
She looked into the side room, and happened to see that the boxes were full of precious jade, and she couldn't help but glance at the people at the table and ridiculed: "Sick, where are you digging treasures?"
"The villain who digs it, it's really rude to say that you haven't seen you, and the baby has always been hard to find, let alone no money."
"I don't understand because I'm poor." Mei Xiaoren walked over to him and sat down, sighing, "I still have people to feed, and I have to pay money for my political achievements." ”
Ah Qing said while cleaning up: "My son-in-law went out this time to find another Xia national treasure horse, but the horse was not found, but this morning I met a merchant who resold these treasures, and my son bought them all." ”
Mei Xiaoren raised his eyes to look in the room again, and saw that Ah Qing was busy opening another box, but the contents were extremely simple.
She frowned: "You said you just bought some vases and porcelain, why don't you even buy jade bricks, is it possible that you still want to carve stones to make money by yourself"
"Actually, these jade bricks are really useless, Childe saw that the merchant was a cheerful person, and the things were also good things, and the others were sold, but only these bricks were left, so Childe simply bought them together."
"Sick, you're really" Mei Xiaoren couldn't help but smack his lips.
Jiang Rong smiled and answered: "Good luck"
"People are stupid and have a lot of money" Mei Xiaoren sneered and moved away.
Under the spring sun, a group of carriages and horses headed west.
Xingyun rode in front, estimating the hour. They would arrive in Xuanzhou in about three days, two months before they went to Beijing.
"Xingyun."
&n
bsp; Hearing the summons, Xingyun raised his sword and signaled the team to stop. He dismounted and walked briskly back to the carriage, and bowed his hands to obey: "Master." ”
"When I arrived in Xuanzhou, I left the silver and told the prefect to try to transfer the silver back to Qiushui County." Chu Yu was silent for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "Don't say it's what I said." ”
"Yes."
Xingyun received the order, and was about to turn back, when he suddenly saw a fast horse running from the direction of Xuannan, and the horse's hooves galloped, kicking up dust.
He then motioned for the driver to stay.
The fast horse approached, and the man on the horse jumped down and galloped to the carriage and knelt on the ground: "Subordinates should be damned"
Xingyun recognized the person kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly asked, "Didn't the master let you guard the old lady in Yun County?"
The guard glanced at Xingyun timidly, and just one glance made Xingyun feel bad
At the beginning of the moon, several fast horses galloped into Qiushui County, and rushed out of the city to the direction of Yunxian County before the city gate was closed.
The night is hazy, and the dark cloak waives in the wind with the galloping horses' hooves, and the cage hits the moonlight, adding to the solemnity.
Xingyun and his attendants spurred their horses and followed. The master's chasing wind is the best Xia national treasure horse in the world, and he took it from Xia Jun, and there is no horse in the world that can compare with it. They chased hard, but they did not dare to let up.
When they arrived at the woods on the outskirts of Yunxian County, they carried lanterns and walked forward with their masters, even if it was dark, they couldn't hide the changes ahead.
When the full moon is in the sky, the exquisite jade mound no longer exists, leaving only the bare soil under the moon and desolate. If it weren't for the stone monument still standing there, they couldn't believe that the person buried here would be a lady with a decree.
Chu Yu slowed down, the stone tablet in front of him was his mother's, because the words on it were mentioned by him. As reported by the attendants, the jade bricks piled up on the surface were stolen.
He has long been accustomed to the sky falling and dealing with it indifferently, the more worried he is, the more he is not sad or angry, and his face is the same, so that people can't grasp their emotions.
Xingyun and the attendants were frightened by what they saw. Who would have thought that Chu Zifeng would be so bold as to lure away two guards and bring people to rob the old lady's tomb.
If the guards hadn't rushed back in time and let the bandits flee in a hurry after stealing the jade bricks, I'm afraid the sky would have collapsed today
Xingyun risked death to persuade: "The master is angry." ”
Chu Yu didn't say a word, stood in front of the tomb, looked at the barren mound made of stones, and silently stretched out his hand to touch the stone tablet.
It was so quiet that only the sound of the wind remained.
This kind of simplicity seems to be what she likes.
Chu Yu said to himself to the stele, "He said that you are a nostalgic person, no matter how much brocade clothes and jade food you have, you only remember the coarse tea and mulberry hemp in Yunxian County, and you don't miss the glory and wealth of Shangjing at all." ”
Yun County, where he was at this time, was a small county town in Xuannan, not even as prosperous as the villages on the outskirts of Beijing, and his mother said before her death that she would be buried back to her hometown, he only cared about obeying the will, taking her back, and giving her the best treasures to accompany the burial, but she never thought that she wanted to return to her roots or return to her hometown.
The stone mound in front of me seems to have blended into this place, without the slightest abruptness. Only then did he realize that she wanted to come back, and she wanted a place to be, not a place to be.
Is this a man-made disaster, or is it destined by God
He preferred the latter.
Chu Yu burned three sticks of incense to say goodbye, did not make any repairs, and turned to leave.
The stone in Xingyun's heart fell to the ground, the old lady has always liked thrift and not luxury, he believes that this is the will of God, presumably the master also believes, and he should not be pursued again, who knows that the master walked a few steps and threw down a token with his sleeve: "Passing the moon." ”
Xingyun picked up the token, only to know that the will of heaven belongs to the will of heaven, and the people who can be forgiven by heaven are useless if the master forgives them.
