Looking at Xu Lanyin's disdainful gaze without a little warmth, Gu Wangchen let out a long sigh and said softly, "I was not good before, and I lost my sister." Every time I think about my childhood, Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu's kindness to me, and because of my sister's innocence and affection, I feel sorry for you. I'm going to Beijing tomorrow, maybe I'll see you again. The jewelry in the brocade box is a little compensation for me, and I hope that my sister can have a smooth life and find a lover as soon as possible. ”

After speaking, Xu Lanyin bowed with his fists, and turned around and left in a hurry.

Xu Lanyin didn't expect him to come to this hand, which didn't fit his personality. Raising his voice, he said, "I'm not uncommon to take your broken things away." ”

Gu Wangchen didn't seem to hear it, his feet were like the wind, and his figure disappeared at the mouth of the alley in an instant.

Xu Lanyin opened the brocade box on the bamboo table, which contained a plum blossom jade hairpin. The jade hairpin is green and transparent, the carving is exquisite, and the price will not be less than two or three hundred taels of silver.

Gu Wangchen is a thin lover who only looks at interests, and it is impossible to have pity for his ex-fiancée.

Xu Lanyin guessed that today he has such a big hand, and he pretends to be affectionate, the biggest possibility is that he is afraid that he will take his past background and hinder his future career, so he will make peace. felt that this hairpin not only repaid the money he spent on the Xu family before, but also more, and hoped that he would "show mercy" to their previous friendship......

As for whether there is any other purpose, Xu Lanyin can't figure it out for the time being.

She covered the brocade box and entered the room and said to Xu Dashi, "Brother Dashi, please help me return this box to Gu Wangchen." Tell him that I don't envy his good days, and don't bother me if there's nothing to do. ”

Xu Dashi agreed, took the brocade box and hurriedly went to a tea shop.

Gu Wangchen listened to Xu Dashi's words, shook his head with a wry smile, and said to Xu Dashi, "Because my sister still hates me." Alas, I don't have to worry about doing things when I'm young, and my mother is a quick temper, so it's no wonder that my sister misunderstood me so deeply. In the future, I hope that Brother Dashi will treat her well. ”

After speaking, he took out a silver ingot and rewarded Xu Dashi.

Xu Dashi didn't take the silver, clenched his fists and said, "Lan Yin is my own sister-in-law, I should treat her well, and I don't deserve the reward of Lord Gu." With that, he turned and left.

Gu Wangchen angrily put the silver ingot on the table, and his face was cloudy. The sound of the ancient woman's loud laughter and praise of her son came in from time to time, which made him even more irritable.

He especially regretted that he shouldn't have pushed Xu Lanyin away completely, and let her think about change when she was poor, so she actually changed her temperament. should always coax her well, let her be stupid and keep herself in her heart. then found an excuse to coax her to withdraw from her marriage, and after she married Qing'er, she was accepted as a concubine again, and served the old lady in Xiaozao Village.

The mothers of many officials are in their hometowns because they can't give up their hometowns. He is an only son, if he doesn't take his mother with him, he will have to take a concubine room to serve, and no one can find fault with him.

There is no need to take the troublesome and unclear old lady to the capital, just give the girl the title of a concubine, Qing'er will definitely agree to this method.

He fully believed that Xu Lanyin, whose temperament had not changed much, would also like his arrangement. It turns out that as long as she doesn't leave herself, she will compromise everything.

Now that the reputation of himself and his mother in Xiaozao Village has been damaged, even if he accepts a concubine, he will not dare to let his mother live in the village. I don't dare to let his mother live in this tea shop, I have to do a big thing here......

Today, he sent Xu Lanyin jade hairpin for two purposes. One is to return the money she used with her family several times, hoping that she can "accumulate virtue in her mouth". One is to see her attitude, if she has not forgotten herself, and her previous performance is a deep love and responsibility, he will make that suggestion that is beneficial to both parties.

But the change in that girl was so great that the way she looked at him made him shudder. The same face, different charm, different eye waves, and a changeable heart...... He regretted it extremely that his vision was too narrow and his means were too low, and his ideas and practices were too simple and direct, leaving no way out for himself and leaving a handle.

In the future, whether in officialdom or at home, things must not be done to the fullest, unless he will die, and he can no longer use it for himself or will not harm his own affairs......

He was thinking about his thoughts, and the little guy came to report, and the golden shopkeeper next door asked to see him.

The next day, Gu Wangchen took his wife to the capital under the send-off of many officials and clansmen. Xu Lizheng also went to see him off, but he didn't even get a word, and he was very depressed.

In the blink of an eye, it was July 25, and the things that should be taken to the county seat at home were all packed. There are not only bedding and daily necessities, but also a few old furniture that Xu Qingyan personally made, and the Qin family can't give up. The furniture had been shipped to the new home a few days earlier, and almost all of the old furniture in the bedroom of the Qin family's new home was there.

In the next morning, Xu Lanyin took Huazi to the mountains behind the village, and also went to the jujube tree where she was "reborn" and the original owner "died". Still the same as last year, there are no more dates that can be picked with your hand, only some are still hanging on the tips of the trees.

The original owner gave his life for those few dates, and he came over by chance.

Time flies, she's been coming through for a whole year.

She sat under the jujube tree in a daze, blue sky and white clouds, full of verdant, things and people......

It wasn't until the sun was setting that she got up and took Hanako home.

Before entering the courtyard, I heard the loud voices of Mrs. Xu and Old Man Xu, and occasionally the voice of Xu Lanzhou.

"Sister, are you in the mountains again? Why don't you wear a hat, don't get a tan. Zhao Wu stuck his head out of the small window of the west chamber and said.

He hadn't been back for three days.

Xu Lanyin smiled, "Are you home today?" ”

Zhao Wu said with a smile, "I'm going to move tomorrow, of course I'm coming back." ”

The old couple and a few people in the big house had a lively dinner here, and Xu Lanzhou went to Xu Lizheng's house and the fifth grandfather's house, and invited them to go to the new home in the county seat tomorrow for dinner.

After that, Wang Jincai and Wang Sanni came to the house.

Wang Jincai gave Zhao Wu and the Xu family a set of fine porcelain bowls respectively. said to the Qin family, "We are filial piety, and we will not go to our new home tomorrow to congratulate." He said to Zhao Wu again, "No matter where Brother Zhao goes, I will never forget you, and I will always take you as an example." ”

Xu Lan was amused, and Zhao Wu actually became a model of aspiration.

Zhao Wu was also a little embarrassed, patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Work hard and strive to do better than Uncle Zhao." ”

Xu Lanyin said to Wang Sanni again, "If you need anything, come to my house to find me." ”

She knew that Wang Sanni would occasionally go to the county seat to set up a stall now, and gave her four bead flowers that she bought in the provincial capital.

Early the next morning, Ding Gu came with a mule cart, which was newly bought by Xu Lanyin's family.

Putting the things on it, the Qin family locked the door, and looked at the yard in a daze for a while, before tearfully getting into the car with his children and Zhao Wu.
