Chapter VII

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the bell rang on time for the end of the class at St. Ann's Girls' High School, and the female students wearing blue clothes and black skirts came out of the school in twos and threes, and Yang Jinxin also said goodbye to her classmates with her schoolbag. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Huo Donglai in a white shirt and black linen gray trousers, he was looking at her, holding the bicycle with one hand, and beckoning to her with the other, with a tall figure, a warm smile, and a handsome face.

"Why are you here?" Yang Jinxin blushed, trotted over, and flicked the bangs on his forehead.

Huo Donglai pointed to the packaged oil paper hanging on the handle, "I'll accompany you and Aunt Lan to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in advance today, let's go!" ”

All the way non-stop, soon arrived at Baijin Road, the neighbors of the miscellaneous courtyard have lived together for many years, Huo Donglai often treats the people in the hospital for free, and gives medicines when he is tight, everyone greets him one after another.

Huo Donglai rushed upstairs in front of Yang Jinxin, and shouted when he entered the door: "Aunt Lan, I'm coming to see you!"

Mother Yang was bending over to wipe the table, and when she saw him, she hurriedly stood up with difficulty holding her waist, "Winter is coming, sit down!" ”

Huo Donglai hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Aunt Lan, why did you get out of bed......

Mother Yang hurriedly motioned him to whisper, but it was too late, and she heard Yang Jinxin's slightly reproachful voice.

"Mother, how many times have I told you, I'll clean up when I come back, why don't you listen!"

Huo Donglai grinned at Mother Yang and made a grimace, Mother Yang had no choice but to look at her daughter with a flattering face, "You haven't done a lot of work, doesn't my mother see that you work hard?" Running around every day, without stopping! ”

"You take good care of your body, it just hurts me, the most important thing I lack when I'm young is strength, what's wrong with running errands......"

"Hey...... Huo Donglai hurriedly interrupted Yang Jinxin's chatter, "Can you go cook?" I'm still in a hurry to go. ”

"Where are you going?" Yang Jinxin and Yang Mu asked in unison.

Huo Dong came to see that he successfully diverted the attention of the mother and daughter, helped Yang's mother sit down, and said with a sad face: "It's not my old man, you have to give me a job in the military department, I'm a medical student, why don't you give An to be a little military doctor in the Ninth Army?"

"The Ninth Army?" Yang Jinxin frowned, his eyes were full of worry, "That Ninth Army is stationed abroad all the year round, how did Director Huo put you on the front line, what if something happens?" Didn't even spend the Mid-Autumn Festival at home? What should the clinic do if you are in such a hurry? ”

"Hey...... Where is there a war now, my father thinks that the front line is good for meritorious service and promotion, and sent me to gild. Huo Donglai didn't care, "Besides, our family has a holiday, and those who are busy giving gifts are busy giving gifts, and there is no taste at all, so I should leave early." ”

He poured himself another cup of tea and continued: "I was about to tell you about the clinic, I packed some commonly used medicines and sent them to you tomorrow, and the clinic will be temporarily closed after I leave." I listen to my father now, so that I can marry you in the future!" ”

Yang Jinxin blushed so much that she was embarrassed to look at her mother, "I won't tell you!" He turned and ran.

It was Huo Donglai who grabbed his hair, looked at Mother Yang, and showed a hint of shame, "Aunt Lan, I'm serious, I'll be good to Jinxin!" ”

Mother Yang frowned slightly, and sighed inaudibly, "You are a good boy, it's just ...... Your family ......"

"As long as Aunt Lan doesn't object, my parents can't control me, don't worry, I will be good to Jinxin!" Huo Donglai squatted down and looked at her with pleading eyes.

Mother Yang couldn't bear to refuse this young man who would never abandon her family, but her heart was full of deep sighs.

"Good!"

She couldn't bear to say that they were too young to understand how important it would be to be a good match.

After eating, Yang Jinxin sent Huo Dong out and told him all the way, "You must be careful, in case of war, don't rush forward!" ”

"Got it, got it!" Huo Donglai stroked the broken hair in her ear, this action made Yang Jinxin blush, and he lowered his head unconsciously.

Huo Donglai took out a white jade clip from his trouser pocket and put it on her ear, and the smooth light against her jade-like cheeks looked particularly good.

"It's so pretty!"

Yang Jinxin raised his eyes and glanced at him, his face turned even redder, "What's good-looking?" ”

"You've made this hairpin look good!"

Raising his hand and touching it, Yang Jinxin looked at his affectionate eyes and held his hand for the first time.

"I'll wait for you!"

Huo Donglai only felt that his heart was full, and the warmth was about to overflow, so he took her into his arms and couldn't speak.

The third day was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the weather was not beautiful, but it was raining lightly. Sister Jin Huan said a few days ago that Lilac invited them to play in Guiyuan, invited her to go with her, and after breakfast, Yang Jinxin settled down and went out.

Guiyuan, as the name suggests, is a garden full of osmanthus trees, pavilions and pavilions inside, clear spring rockery, beautiful scenery, is the elegant place where literati and politicians often go in Jinling City. If it weren't for my sister's invitation, with Yang Jinxin's background in a miscellaneous courtyard, I wouldn't want to step in for the rest of my life. This is also the reason why she heard that she came to Guiyuan, she did not refuse, she always wanted to see the Jiangnan garden during the Republic of China with her own eyes.

In front of the gate of Guiyuan, two other little sisters from the rose garden who came together gathered together, and a group of four people entered the garden through the front door.

The old servant in front led the way, and walked slowly on the bluestone path, surrounded by lush osmanthus flowers and rich floral fragrance. The old servant told them which garden had been taken over by a great man, and told them not to run around, and he trembled away.

The beautiful garden was wrapped, which was inevitably a little regrettable, but it did not affect the interest of the girls at all, and they soon went into the forest to have fun together.

Yang Jinxin also held her sister's hand, held an umbrella and walked inside, while telling her about the family, "Mother's health is much better, don't worry, as long as you take care of it well, there will be no big problems in winter." ”

"Well, you can worry more about family affairs, and tell me if you need money."

"Now there is no shortage of money, I still want to send my mother to the church hospital to see a Western doctor, Donglai also said that it will be better for my mother to go to the hospital!"

"It's as good as it gets, you look at it, but I found a new problem......" Yang Jinhuan turned around and looked at his sister, looking serious.

Yang Jinxin's bright eyes looked at her, full of puzzlement, "What's the problem?" ”

"Ahem...... Yang Jinhuan pretended to cough twice, and her beautiful eyes flashed with a cunning light, "Brother Huo before, when did it become Donglai?" ”

"Ahh Yang Jinxin blushed with shame, stomped his feet and said, "I want to tell my mother that you are bullying me!"

Yang Jinhuan took one of her hands and looked at her blushing little face, "What's there to be shy about with my sister, you and him were originally childhood sweethearts, you were too young before, we didn't say anything, you guys are so good!" ”

"Sister......" Yang Jinxin shook her arm, her face was so red that she was about to drip blood.

"Okay, okay, let's be serious!" Yang Jinhuan straightened her soft long hair scattered behind her back, and her jet-black pupils emitted a gratifying and sad luster, "You have to hurry up and think about where to go to college, my sister can prepare money for you, in the future, we will marry into the Huo family in a beautiful way, don't let people look down on it!" ”

"Sister......" Yang Jinxin listened to her sister's words, only felt as if her heart was blocked, tears fell down, she stretched out her hand and hugged her sister's thin shoulders tightly, and was speechless. She has been thinking that she must have done a lot of good things in her previous life, and God gave her the opportunity to be reborn, even if she came to this troubled era of the Republic of China, she also felt that she was the luckiest time-traveler in history.

Yang Jinxin only cried, and Yang Jinhuan, who provoked her, also shed tears, and the sisters separated for a while, comforting each other for a long time before walking deeper into the garden.

The garden in the rain has a unique flavor, a misty piece. On the small building, Qin Muyang leaned in front of the window, looking at the rain and fog in front of him, and the osmanthus was a little more fragrant, and rushed to drill into his nose.

There was no expression on his handsome face, and between his eyebrows, it was so smooth that he couldn't see a trace of emotion. The strange tension spreads, creating a strong sense of alienation that is inaccessible.

Those who knew him well knew that this was the aura he exuded when he was extremely impatient.

"Four less." A soft voice sounded behind him, "You promised me ...... before"

Before he finished speaking, Liao Yong's knife-like eyes shot straight over, Lilac trembled and didn't dare to speak again.

Qin Muyang looked at the crimson bamboo umbrella in the distance and approached little by little, the two people under the umbrella stopped under an old osmanthus tree in front of the building, the flower branch opened very low, and saw a hand as white as jade reached out to the branch, and then retracted suddenly, a small bone china-like face stretched out, looked left and right, and then, the hand quickly reached to the branch and picked a cluster of small flowers. This finally succeeded, and then a burst of laughter like silver bells was heard, and the sisters under the umbrella hurriedly ran away.

"Liao Yong." Qin Muyang's right hand was propped up on the edge of the window, looking out of the window motionlessly, with a little smile on his face.

"Yes!" Liao Yong saluted, turned to Lilac and said, "Please!"

Lilac showed a delicate smile like a spring flower, and hurriedly saluted Qin Muyang, pulled up the milky white tassel shawl, and swayed her plump buttocks downstairs.

After walking for a while, there was an antique octagonal pavilion in front of him for people to rest, Yang Jinxin rushed into the pavilion quickly, and the rest of Yang Jinhuan's waist swayed lightly, holding an umbrella alone and slowly coming in.

Yang Jinxin watched her sister walk around, and the corners of her skirt never flipped over, this is the beautiful style that her mother taught them when she was a child, she looked at her sister wearing a slim cheongsam embroidered with gold thread on a purple background, a goose yellow brocade shawl, and the whole person was as beautiful as a full moon.

"What kind of eyes are you?" Yang Jinhuan walked in and poked her sister's head to make her successfully calm down.

Yang Jinxin pouted and rubbed his head and said, "Whoever made you so beautiful, I was fascinated."

Yang Jinhuan smiled and glanced at her, and the charm that penetrated into the bones was natural, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!" As he spoke, he put away his umbrella and sat down against the railing.

"Hey, it's raining heavily, and there's no moon to see at night." Yang Jinxin sat down against her sister, reflexively leaned on the railing, and took her right hand to catch the water droplets dripping from the eaves. The rain hit her shallot-like fingertips, and the splash made her squint slightly.

"When I was a child, did my mother teach in vain? You sit like this, and only Huo Donglai doesn't dislike you! Yang Jinhuan always seized the opportunity to preach to her, although she supported her sister to study, but she couldn't get used to those new girls teaching nondescript, although she was in the dust, but she has always been an old-fashioned woman.

Yang Jinxin didn't care about her, and still reached out to play in the water, this is what he often did in the orphanage in his previous life, engraved in his bones, and he didn't refute his sister, but only changed his head, "Why hasn't Sister Lilac been there yet, don't wait a while, let's give money!" ”
