Chapter 150: This Incident (2nd Update)
"Goodbye, mother!" Lu Ruyi leaned out of the window and waved to Su Jin, "Mother, remember to come and see Ruyi!" β
"Okay, let your mother be quiet," Lu Xuan slipped Lu Ruyi back, with a thick smile between his eyebrows, "Let's go, you rest early." β
Su Jin sighed slightly, watched the carriage go farther and farther, and turned back to the house.
At this moment, the afterglow has already fallen, there are few people on the street, only a few drunk rich children on the street are teasing each other, Su Jin glanced at it, and didn't care.
However, the moment she turned her head, one of them looked up, his eyes were slightly stunned, his tongue was wide, and he pointed at her back indistinctly, "Why is it so similar...... Su Jin? β
"Silly you!" Someone pushed him, "Master Su has just been buried, and you see him, isn't it haunted?" β
"Yes!" The man smiled and scratched his head, "That person is dressed in women's clothes, it can't be, I must have read it wrong!" β
He raised the flask, "Let's drink again!" β
ββ
"What's wrong with you?" Su Jin looked at Rong Wenlin, who had a haggard face, and sighed slightly, "I was fine some time ago, why did I suddenly fall down." β
"Ahem, when people are old, they are full of disasters and diseases, but I'm afraid I won't be able to last long," Rong Wenlin coughed, "Little boy, sit farther away, don't let the illness pass over to you." β
"What do you say?" Su Jin poured him a glass of water, "It's time to take care of your illness now, don't always think about this." β
"I know my own body," Rong Wenlin smiled bitterly, "I've lived enough, I can see it." β
He looked up at Su Jin, "What do you have to say when the little boy came today?" β
"I want to get the shop out," Su Jin sighed, "You can also take a break." β
"Okay," Rong Wenlin coughed and straightened up, "How many do you sell?" The little boy can give me the address, and the money will be delivered to you at that time. β
"You can look at the right one, you don't have to give it to me, you can take all the money you earn." Su Jin shook his head, "Just be paid." β
"How does this work?" Rong Wenlin was a little anxious, "This is a lot of money, why are you..."
"You have earned a lot for me, this is what you deserve," Su Jin hurriedly spoke, "If you really feel that it is inappropriate, promise me that this shop must be sold before the fifteenth of this month, don't delay!" β
Rong Wenlin saw her seriousness from Su Jin's face, and wanted to ask, but he felt that it was not easy to ask, so he had to nod his head.
chatted with Uncle Rong again, and seeing that he looked really tired, Su Jin changed back into women's clothes in the back room and returned to the house through the back door.
There were still Liu Lu, Liu Suzi and Sisi in the house who didn't know that she was a girl, and Su Jin hadn't figured out how to tell them, so she had to drag it first.
As soon as she stepped into the backyard, Xiao Lan suddenly appeared behind her, almost scaring her heart out.
"Master," Xiao Lan continued to call her before, "The old lady is looking for you." β
Su Jin exhaled, nodded, and walked towards the backyard.
It was in the afternoon, the old lady set up a rattan chair in the shade of the courtyard, held a brand-new rattan fan and shook it gently, talking to Liu Xiaofen beside her, the two of them were head to head, chuckling.
Su Jin slightly hooked the corners of her lips, only feeling that this was a rare harmonious scene.
Liu Xiaofen blinked her eyes and saw Su Jin standing there, turned her head and said to the old lady, stretched out her hand to call her, "Come on, what are you doing standing stupidly?" β
Su Jin moved over, and saw that the old lady looked very energetic today, and smiled, "Why did you talk to my mother so happily today, and you didn't sleep at noon?" β
The old lady took her hand and rubbed it in her palm, "I have always been groggy and always want to sleep on weekdays, but today the weather is good, your mother sat outside with me, and I didn't feel tired." β
"You can see that it's still my credit." Liu Xiaofen also seemed to be very happy today, pressed Su Jin to the place where she was sitting, and said to the old lady, "Mother, then you talk, I'll go prepare the meal." β
"Okay," the old lady smiled and waved at her, "you go and get busy, don't be in a hurry." β
She held Su Jin's hand, with some childlike innocence on her face, "I'll talk to our Xiao Jin about my heart." β
Su Jin smiled, as if something flashed in her heart, so fast that she couldn't catch it.
"Xiao Jin, look." The old lady took out a small brown box from behind her as if offering a treasure, handed it to her and motioned for her to open it.
Su Jin took it, only to feel that the box was heavy, and the texture was very good to the touch, and the opening was closed with a gold clasp, she picked it open with her fingertips, opened it gently, and saw a shiny step lying in the box.
The step was silver, with purple crystals wrapped in silver threads above the head, a dreamy color in the sun, like the most hazy dream of a girl under the moon and stars, from which spread countless flowing tassels, and at the ends fell silver leaves, jingling in the wind.
Su Jin couldn't put it down.
It's really beautiful.
"Do you like it?" The old lady smiled at her, "This is specially for you, wear it and take a look." β
Su Jin hurriedly stretched her head over.
The old lady put down her long hair and unfolded the silky hair little by little, "Unconsciously, our Xiao Jin also has long hair to the waist, and it's time to get married soon, so let that young man from King Jin comb your hair in the future." β
"Grandma!" Su Jin's face flushed, "If you talk nonsense, I'll go back!" β
The old lady smiled and tied up her hair.
"Xiao Jin, your mother has actually always been very attentive to you," the old lady chattered behind her, "She was opposed to you being with King Jin at first, but she felt that you were too hard in this half of your life, and with a down-to-earth child like Jun Ran, even if your life is dull, but it is stable, but who knows that you still fall in love with King Jin." β
"It can be seen that you still have fate, but he is not bad, he will not lose you, and I can rest assured that you follow him." The old lady put the hairpin on her head and nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, you go to the house to take a photo, and by the way, help me bring the book on the table." β
Su Jin ran into the house with a smile, and looked at the old lady's mirror for a long time, eager to kiss the mirror, and rubbed it for a while before coming out with the book.
"You've been in there for a while." Seeing that Su Jin finally came out, the old lady shook her head with a smile, "How are you satisfied?" β
"Well, it's beautiful." Su Jin sat beside her, handed her the book, and smiled happily, "Why do you look like such a drama book?" I saw that it was read by children. β
"It's just that I have nothing to do to relieve my boredom," the old lady seemed to be a little tired, lying on the chair and squinting at the bouquet of yellow roses on the small table, reaching out and pulling out one, putting it on the tip of her nose and sniffing lightly, "Xiao Jin, you haven't read to me for a long time, can you read a paragraph to me today?" β
"Naturally!" Su Jin opened it with a smile, "Want to hear that section?" β
"Let's just send the Lethe River," the old lady closed her eyes, "I want to hear that one." β
"Okay." Su Jin flipped it open, "This seems to be the memory of the protagonist Suqin's life, and it feels a bit long." β
"It's all right, it's still an hour before the meal," the old lady chuckled, "read it." β
"On this day, Suqin took the girl to walk in the garden..."
Listening to Su Jin's voice, the old lady closed her eyes gently.
ββ¦β¦ Looking at this old garden, the past comes to mind..."
In a trance, Su Li was still a child, still spreading joy on his knees, how could he marry a good wife in a blink of an eye?
The old lady curled the corners of her lips.
Recall, thanks to Xiaofen over the years, if it weren't for you, the Guogong Mansion would not be where it is today.
β... ... The winter sun closes on the pillow..."
Xiao Jin has now found a lover and recovered her daughter's body, Li Er has been wronged, and it seems that she has nothing to let go of.
β... ... Cook a pot of wine, you don't have to think about it, the night is getting quiet..."
Gradually, all this is gradually settling down, and there is really no need to think about it anymore.
The old lady thought in a daze.
Let them go on their own for the rest of their lives.
Now that this is the case, let's go away.
This goesβ
No more.
Su Jin read and thought, and suddenly raised her eyes with understanding.
The wind is just right.
The old lady was lying on her side, with a faint smile on the corner of her lips, and the fingertip flower that she had sniffed lightly fell on the rattan chair at the moment, and was blown by the wind and fell silently to the ground.
Su Jin was stunned, and her tone was soft as if she was afraid of waking her up, "Grandma, I'm going to finish reading this fold, and... Read the next chapter? β
The old lady fell asleep silently, and the only answer to her was the sound of the wind in the woods.
"Then I'll keep reading." Su Jin muttered to herself, slowly lowering her head, "The next chapter is 'separation', this is another story......"
She read stiffly, her hands shaking.
A tear suddenly fell, wetting the handwriting, Su Jin quickly raised his hand to wipe it, "He went south..."
What followed were more tears, drop after drop, until the page was soaked, and Su Jin suddenly covered her face and cried bitterly.
"Grandma!"
In the eleventh year of Jingtai of the Great Wei Dynasty, another funeral was held in Xuanjing City, and this was only half a month after the last time Su Jin, the pillar of the Su family, died, and the top and bottom of the Guogong Mansion were covered with white.
Su Jin knelt on the ground, and put the paper money in her hand into the brazier in front of her with some indifference, maybe it was too close, and the veil on her face was almost burned by the flames.
Until she was pulled away by Peach, she still looked at the spiritual position placed in the room and the corpse lying quietly, and she couldn't understand why this happened so suddenly.
"You go to the back and wash your face," as soon as her shoulders warmed, Su Jin turned around and saw Liu Xiaofen's red and swollen eyes, "I'm here, let's go." β
Su Jin was dragged to the backyard by Jun Ran, he wiped her face with a clean cloth, looked at Su Jin's somewhat sad face, and sighed, "I'll go get you a basin of water." β
He went out, and soon someone stepped in.
