Chapter 266: Follow by the River
Ji Yanning has rested for a few days, his body has improved, and he can now walk on the ground.
It's just that I'm still too weak, and it won't take long for me to get tired, so I can only walk around the house and yard at will.
It didn't take long for the women who came to Aunt Niu's house to spread the news, and now the whole village knows that Aunt Niu picked up the woman who almost died, and she was actually a Lindu man*.
Some people secretly came over to see what the * that promised five hundred taels of silver at the exit looked like, but they were all beaten away by Aunt Niu.
Now the people in the village call Ji Yanning "the girl of five hundred taels".
After staying for a few days, Ji Yanning knew what was going on in Aunt Niu's family, she was a widow, her husband went to serve as a soldier and died on the battlefield, leaving a son and a daughter, the eldest daughter married a farmer in the next village, and the son worked as a man in the town, and later married the daughter of the shopkeeper of a small merchant's house.
When her son became rich, he became a member of someone else's family, even if she objected, she did not save her son, and even in order to please her father-in-law and wife, Aunt Niu's son cut off contact with Aunt Niu.
Of course, these were all things she heard in the fragmentary words of the people in the village, and every time Aunt Niu heard others talk about these things, she would stand at the door and scold them, which was so fierce that Ji Yanning was a little surprised.
She asked Aunt Niu that this small village is in Tanzhou in Yan Kingdom, Ji Yanning has seen the general map of Yan Kingdom, and the distance from Tanzhou to Lindu is probably not much different from the distance from Jiangzhou to Chang'an.
She is now wounded, and she does not have a good carriage, so she is afraid that it will be longer to go to Lindu.
The key is to get back the Recall Beiling and the Imperial Carp Jade Pei.
Since knowing that Ji Yanning's net worth is not low, Aunt Niu has stayed at home most of the time to take care of Ji Yanning, for fear that she will run away by herself or that someone else will steal her, even picking vegetables and fishing will soon return home, and Ji Yanning can't go to her room to find things at all.
Aunt Niu walked into the room with breakfast, and saw Ji Yanning walking slowly in the house, she stepped forward with a smile and put the food on the table.
"Miss Zhao, it's time for breakfast. She said to Ji Yanning.
Ji Yanning hummed lightly, then sat down at the table and picked up the chopsticks.
Aunt Niu looked at Ji Yanning and found that after her complexion was getting better and better, she was getting better and better, although she was wearing her daughter's clothes, but these shabby clothes did not hide her temperament on Ji Yanning's body at all.
Ji Yanning looked at the breakfast on the table, it was meat porridge and sweet potato, although there was only a little bit of meat foam in this meat porridge, but for Aunt Niu, she was probably not very willing to put the meat down.
The only meat she can eat these days is fish, because this village is close to the big river, and the nearby villagers often go to fish, but they don't catch much, and there are no fishermen who specialize in fishing for a living, but occasionally each family catches one or two to go back to cook and eat.
However, Ji Yanning's current body is quite suitable for this kind of light diet, which can make him feel better faster.
"Miss Zhao's complexion is really getting better and better. Aunt Niu said with a smile.
is so amiable, she is almost like her when she was planning to sell Ji Yanning.
Ji Yanning bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you Aunt Niu for taking care of me, otherwise I wouldn't be okay so quickly." ”
Aunt Niu smiled deeper and said, "You just remember Aunt Niu's goodness!"
Ji Yanning continued to eat breakfast, her appetite is getting better and better, and her body is recovering faster and faster.
"By the way, I'll go to the river to wash clothes later, I'm afraid that you won't be safe at home alone, I'll lock the door first, you can rest well in the house, and no one will disturb you," Aunt Niu said.
Ji Yanning's eyes moved slightly, and Aunt Niu was obviously afraid that she would run away, so she wanted to lock her at home.
She said, "Can I go with Aunt Niu?"
Aunt Niu was a little surprised: "Go washing clothes with me?"
Ji Yanning nodded and said: "I can walk on the ground now, and I can't always nest in the room, going out for a walk is good for my body, not to mention that with Aunt Niu here, I am not afraid that others will bully me." ”
Aunt Niu heard her say this, and thought for a while in her heart, thinking that her delicate body couldn't run far now, so she agreed.
Aunt Niu prepared for a while, locked the doors in the yard, and then walked to the river with the wooden barrel containing the clothes.
Ji Yanning slowly followed behind Aunt Niu, she walked a little slowly, Aunt Niu was not in a hurry, seeing the road that was not easy to walk, she stepped forward to support her, and walked for about two quarters of an hour before walking to the bank of the river.
"Yo, Aunt Niu came out to wash clothes, and she also brought a young lady out, aren't you afraid that people will run away?"
"Don't say it, this girl is so good-looking, I've never seen such a beautiful girl. ”
"But no, the concubine of Master Wang Xinna is really far worse than her. ”
Ji Yanning followed Aunt Niu to the river, and several women who were originally washing clothes looked at her one after another, as if they were watching something.
"Look at it! It's all two eyes and one nose, what's so beautiful!" Aunt Niu shouted at them at the top of her voice.
was yelled at by Aunt Niu like this, and the other people looked at each other, but they didn't dare to talk about it so unscrupulously in front of Aunt Niu.
But when they got together, they were still whispering something, and they looked in the direction of Ji Yanning from time to time.
Ji Yanning felt that it was okay, so he generously looked at and discussed with them, found a shady tree by himself, and sat down to look at the surrounding scenery.
The river is wide and long, winding so far that there is no end in sight.
Ji Yanning felt that his life was really big, and he could survive like this, which showed that he really deserved to die.
I don't know who saw her and Aunt Niu coming to the bank of the river together, and after a while, many children came to watch her.
Ji Yanning only thought it was funny, she was not a monkey, why were so many people so curious about her.
She didn't pay any attention to it, and let them watch, and it didn't take long for the people to get bored and disperse.
"Daughter-in-law ......"
Suddenly, a muffled voice came from overhead, Ji Yanning looked up in surprise, and saw a person about twenty-four or five years old* in the back, looking at him stupidly, with a smile on his face.
Before she could come back to her senses, Aunt Niu had already walked over with the wooden barrel and yelled at the man loudly: "Second fool, get out!"
The man who was called the second fool by Aunt Niu heard Aunt Niu's fierce voice, but he was not afraid, but looked at Ji Yanning and said, "You are my daughter-in-law, right?"
