Chapter 21: Mother and Daughter Meet
The servant's face was half pale and half red, obviously frightened, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to admit his mistake, "Childe, the little one is happy that after Childe's injury is healed, there will be no scar." ”
"Why don't you leave a scar, you don't know who your son-in-law is? That's not a scar! Jin Xixing continued to make a fuss without thinking about it.
"Little ......"
"Zhou'an, you go out first."
Zhou Siyuan's tone was cold, and his eyes were cold.
It turned out that the servant who was afraid of angering the son was called Zhou An, the son of the Zhou family, the maid of Zhou Siyuan's biological mother, but he was old and frail, and he couldn't stand the wind and cold, so he went early, and the father who was guarding the gatehouse was also frozen because of the cold, and the dripping water turned into ice that year, exhaling like ice fog, and he fell in the middle of the night.
"Yes, Childe." Zhou An tiptoed, turned around step by step, and slowly went outside, and drove with the coachman.
Zhou Siyuan looked at him lightly, and spit out words like ice, "If you are deliberately looking for fault, then you can not point the finger at Zhou An." ”
"It's just to make a fuss and ease the atmosphere, not to mention that they are just inferior servants, can't you say it?"
"And he's a doctor?"
Although Childe lowered his voice, he could barely hear it, and Zhou An was annoyed outside, hanging his head and not saying a word, not even hearing the coachman ask him.
"Come on, come on, your protection is too obvious, aren't you afraid that they will flutter in turn?" Jin Xixing was already dumbfounded, but he was concerned about whether one of the people around him was sent by the enemy.
"Bai has won a resourceful title, it is better to change it to a poisonous tongue!" Zhou Siyuan's affection for him is really declining.
"I'm expected to be old and lonely, so I'll reward him, so I should make up for it, okay?" Jin Xixing smiled disappreliantly, and his slender fingers gently knocked on the car window.
"Why don't you come in and thank the eldest prince of Jin?" Zhou Siyuan looked at him in surprise, he rarely mentioned Zhou An in front of them, how could he know everything now?
When Zhou Siyuan frowned, Zhou An had already come in and knelt down to thank Jin Xixing, holding the lone book in both hands, he was overjoyed, and bowed to the eldest prince of Jin again, "Thank you for the reward!" ”
The simple smile hung on his face, and he held the lonely book in his arms and held it carefully.
"Sit down!" Jin Xixing smiled brighter than before.
After Zhou An sat down, he continued to clean up the broken clothes and cloths picked out on the low table, and continued to apply medicine to Childe's arm that had not yet been medicated.
Jin Xixing opened the curtain from time to time to breathe, and sometimes looked at the scenery outside the small square.
"My parents will move to the capital tomorrow, but I can't be together!" Jin Xixing is not sad, but a little regretful.
"It's nothing compared to national affairs!" He comforted himself.
"The capital is rich, the development trend is big, and it is good for your little sister." Zhou Siyuan just glanced at him lightly, and then closed his eyes to recuperate.
"Moving to the capital for her, it's worth it." Jin Xixing was delighted by what his parents did, and a woman who married into a wealthy family, especially a rich family in the capital, must be going to support her daughter.
As they spoke, they were close to the carriage in front of them and stopped at a teahouse.
A person came out of the vehicle at the end, and that person was Cheng Mo, who had just ridden away, and said that he would tell her to wait in Huizhou, but he didn't think that he would be unable to hold his breath first.
Zhou Siyuan was inexplicably funny, but suddenly stopped, that person was Ah Zhi! In case this righteous brother threatens her, isn't that gloating?
Because of the arrival of the Ji family, the funeral time was late, and when they encountered the news of the enemy's entry into Dayu, people were already panicking.
There are very few people who come out, and the business of the teahouse is really cold, and there are countless people who travel to the mountains and rivers in the past, but now, there are only a handful.
In the innermost corner of the teahouse, a woman with a sad face sighed, took a sip of tea with a teacup, ate a few mouthfuls of side dishes, and then had no appetite, picked up a square silk and wiped the oil stains on the corners of her mouth, beckoned Xiao Er, and handed out a portrait of Zhang, who was a woman with a good face.
After looking at it, tilting his head and thinking about it, Xiao Er was also full of sadness, and said apologetically: "Madam, I haven't seen it, as you said, I haven't seen you for a month, and I'm being held hostage, I'm afraid that I'm hungry and full, and my face is haggard." ”
Oh, yes! She always looked for her with the most beautiful portrait of her daughter, and she hadn't seen her for a month, and she was afraid that she was too thin to see her original appearance, so the woman thought so, rolled up the portrait, carefully put it in her sleeve, and wanted to lift her feet upstairs to the guest room to rest.
The sound of horses' hooves and cries outside was deafening.
The woman stood at the staircase, never giving up on everyone who passed by, and her daughter was always in it.
Nan Rongjin, who jumped out of the carriage first, seemed to have a heart and a soul, and always felt that someone behind her was looking in her direction, she first hugged Ji Huan, and then hugged Ji Chen, after an afternoon of getting along, his brother became familiar with her, together with Ah Zhi, the two brothers were a sister, and they were called sweet.
Nan Rongjin led a child into the teahouse with one hand, and just arrived in the hall, but she met a familiar person, her shining eyes, haggard face, and the tears that pinched the square silk to wipe the corners of her eyes, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't hear it for a long time.
"Jin'er?" The woman pinched the back of her hand, the pain made her not dream, but it was like a dream, this woman with a yellow face and thin muscles, usually cloth, and was injured, and walked with a limp, no matter how she looked at it!
"Mother!" A strong consciousness made Nan Rongjin can't help but shout.
"It's really you!" The woman hurried down the stairs in two steps, and took her daughter in her arms, crying happily.
"It's me, I was chased here by that thug a few days ago, and she beat me, she saved me."
Nan Rongjin felt a little repulsed in her heart, but this body was the biological flesh and blood of the woman in front of her, and she was still respectful, after all, this woman was good to "her", so that people couldn't find the slightest mistake, and she didn't favor sons over daughters.
Following Jin'er's gaze, a rare smile appeared at the corner of the woman's mouth, "Thank you, thank you!" Otherwise, where will I go to find my child! ”
"Madame doesn't have to be polite," I had heard her say about her life before, so Ah Zhi never thought of climbing high.
"The child is still modest," said the woman, who smiled at last, "what is the name of the girl?" ”
"Madam, my name is Ah Zhi." Ah Zhi smiled faintly.
"Zhi?" The woman was amazed for a moment, "But, blessings, blessings?" ”
Ah Zhi was stunned, and felt that there was a trace of wrong charm in it, "I can't read, I don't understand the meaning of the name." ”
