Chapter 17: Sanniang

The apricot grove near Yizhuang is covered with snow-white petals, and from a distance, it looks as white as snow.

After anxiously waiting for two days, the news of the enemy's entry into the city was imminent, and the reinforcements were delayed, and Ah Zhi's heart went up and down.

Although Nan Rongjin said that she had changed her identity, her soul could not be changed, and when she recalled that when she was babbling, the old lady taught her carefully and patiently, and when she was about to fall to the ground as a toddler, the person who was busy supporting her and her sister was the old lady, and her hatred for her suddenly decreased a lot, and the tears rolled down.

Nan Rongjin caressed her filial piety clothes and cried louder, but she still clenched her teeth, her lips were faintly overflowing with blood, and she didn't feel pain.

In the eyes of others, it was just that she saved her life, and she could wear filial piety with affection and righteousness, and this woman was also a loving and righteous person.

Ah Zhi sat in front of the spirit, silently put the yellow paper into the brazier, looking at the fleeting firelight, the big tears of the bean fell with a snap, fell into the brazier, a little ash pounced on her face, but she didn't feel the pungent strangeness.

muttered in my heart: Mom, I miss you, are you okay?

The breeze hit, and I only felt a chill behind me, and there were some hurried footsteps.

Ah Zhi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, slowly got up and looked back, and saw a servant in a gray shirt.

The servant only obeyed Yu Gongzi's orders, and he didn't want to come to see her, but he thought that he was just here to pass on the word, and it didn't hurt much, so he came.

"Miss Ah Zhi, a woman is coming here with three children."

Woman? Could it be the third daughter-in-law of the Ji family? This thought lingered in his mind for a long time, and Ah Zhi replied respectfully to the servant: "Thank you, little brother!" ”

Then he turned around and grabbed Nan Rongjin's wrist and ran out together.

"Thank you," Nan Rongjin knew that the light words could not move anyone.

"In the final analysis, this is all an obligation, but unfortunately, I can't wear linen and filial piety for my mother, which is really against the principles of heaven!" Ah Zhi's words were cold and desolate.

"If you don't dislike it, I will keep filial piety with you!" Nam Young-geun treats each other sincerely.

“…… Thank you! After a long time, Ah Zhi spoke.

On the trail not far from Yizhuang, the apricot blossoms fall into a blanket, such as the heavy snow in the cold winter wax moon, look at this scene, it seems that there is a grievance to be revenged.

A woman carried a toddler on her back, a child of about five or six years old in her left and right hands, and a rough basket hung in front of her, which was obviously very heavy, and she walked with her head down.

This person was too vague and too familiar in Ah Zhi and Nam Rongjin's minds.

I haven't seen her in just five years, and a beautiful and beautiful woman has become a woman in her forties and fifties by the years.

As she got closer, Ah Zhi slowly stepped forward and stood in front of the woman, and when she stood firm, she stood on tiptoe and took off the strap of the basket that the woman was hanging around her neck.

"Sanniang," Ah Zhi shouted lightly.

The woman breathed with relief, her face was full of sorrow, her eyes were dim, and she squeezed a shallow smile at the woman she hadn't seen for a long time.

"This is your big sister, I've seen my big sister soon!"

The woman did not reprimand Ah Zhi for not taking good care of the old lady, but first pushed the boy who looked the same forward, and her tone was choked, but she still kept a smile on her face.

"I've seen the big sister, my name is Ji Huan, my name is Ji Chen."

The two boys bowed to Ah Zhi in unison, with a faint smile on their faces, because the old lady had passed away, they naturally didn't dare to laugh when they recognized their relatives, but the red blush in their eyes confirmed that they had cried before.

The child named Ji Huan has a deep dimple in the right corner of his mouth, and he can see it clearly without smiling. The child named Ji Chen has a mole on the left corner of his mouth, which is also convenient for him not to admit mistakes in the future.

"The one on his back is called Ji Ning, five months old, and he can't speak yet."

Before Ah Zhi could say anything, the woman took two steps forward and showed Ah Zhi the face of the infant baby.

The woman carried her on her back, and with the thick strap, the baby's face was a shallow flush, sucking on her fingers.

Ah Zhi was stunned for a moment, and laughed awkwardly, "How did you get here?" ”

The woman looked back, "It's a boy in brocade who escorted us!" ”

The woman saw the strange woman wearing linen and filial piety on the side, and said in surprise: "This is?" ”

"Her name is Jin'er, she saved her a few days ago, and in repayment, she sent her grandmother up the mountain with us."

Ah Zhi explained.

Hearing this, the woman's big tears rolled down, her throat rolled, she choked and couldn't say anything, just cried, a stranger dressed the old lady in linen and filial piety, on the other hand, they suddenly shook their heads and lamented again and again.

"Let's go see the old lady!" The woman choked, grabbed Ah Zhi's arm with both hands, and sighed, "You have suffered all these years! ”

As soon as the words fell, he led the two boys and walked quickly towards Yizhuang.

Nan Rongjin gently patted Ah Zhi's shoulder and murmured: "Sanniang, her temperament is a good one, once she was beaten by villains, she was held hostage, she was beaten hard, and she hurt her brain, so there was no fatal problem, but she also fell into the root of the disease, sometimes sober and sometimes confused, and then, you will bother!" ”

Ah Zhi looked back at her, and asked instead of answering: "Have you figured it out?" ”

"Figured it out," Nan Rongjin thought that she was complacent with her new identity at first, but when she saw her original body standing in front of her, she somehow had a sense of wanting to get rid of it quickly, and now that she thinks about it, she should be her Nan Rongjin honestly!

"Fate makes people!" Nam Rongjin laughed at herself, and when she turned around, there were tears in the corners of her eyes.

In front of the spirit, the coffin was not covered, the woman looked at it for a moment, and the tears of the bean couldn't help but roll down, and she was busy leading the child to plop and kneel, not caring whether there was a mat on the green brick.

The sound of kneeling down hit his heart directly, and the old man who was guarding on the side subconsciously stroked his knees, don't turn his face and not look at this sensational scene.

"Daughter-in-law Liu's willow catkins have come back to see your old man with her son, please forgive me for this unfilial act of not returning for five years!"

Liu Wu choked up, choked his neck and said word by word, and the words that had been held in his heart for a long time were released so comfortably.

"Mother," Liu Fu got up, looked at the vicissitudes of life, covered her mouth and sobbed silently, and was quiet for a long time before slowly explaining the reason why she did not return for five years.

She knew that the phrase "reporting good news and not bad news" should be to "show off" how prosperous they have been outside in the past few years, but she will not lie.

"The second uncle and the eldest brother went to the border to be soldiers stationed at the border, and the Xianggong and the second brother were worried about the two of them, so they also went back and forth, and they have not come back yet."

"My sister-in-law was abandoned by her husband's family, she was crazy and stupid, and she didn't know where she was going, and her daughter-in-law didn't see a shadow after looking for a long time."

"The twins were there before they left home, and the child they were carrying was picked up by the side of the road, a girl named Ning'er."

"Mother! I have been looking for my sister-in-law in Anzhou for so many years, and those angry letters were all written by the previous father-in-law and the second uncle, and then sent back every once in a while, you have suffered. ”

The deceased is gone, and no matter how much you say, you can't hear a word.
