Chapter 274: Reunion
In Shencheng, in the past few months, the news in the newspaper has improved again and again. It's just that Chen Jie'an's return date is still far away.
The few letters I wrote only got less than two sentences.
"Wait for me."
"Xiang'er, I miss you."
In the past, getting along with Xianggong was like a spring breeze and drizzle, and seeing the stitches and needles filled his life. In the first two months, Ji Xiang made an appointment with Meng Yuer and others to play around, and found something to do, but he didn't feel that there was anything to do without Chen Jiean.
In autumn, Meng Yuer's wedding date was approaching, and she was locked in the house to learn etiquette. Miao Ruyi couldn't come out, her sister did her best to make some moths, Ji Xiang had to think that Miao Ruyu was pretending to be stupid, and her scheming was even deeper.
Xie Keyan came twice unexpectedly, the first time he asked her how Chen Xie An was in Shencheng, and the second time he came, he comforted her, and Chen Xie An couldn't come back for a while. Shencheng was in ruins, and he was rewarded by the emperor for his good work, so he was stationed there, and the period of his return was pushed again and again.
Luckily, my mother came to Kyoto.
Qiao Sumo embroidered a picture of a mountain bird loquat, Grandpa Liao practiced a big knife in the yard, and Hanzi and Ren Wusheng helped Ji Xiang peel the shell of pumpkin seeds under the sun.
There was a bang, and the door was kicked open.
Grandpa Liao was not surprised and continued his actions. The other two lowered their heads, only Qiao Sumo put down his things, pointed at the comer, and shouted, "Ji Xiang! I've said it a few times, be careful, don't kick the door again. ”
The woman outside, with her hair tied high, smiled when she heard this, and lifted the two stone mills in her hands. "Mother, I have something in my hand, it's inconvenient."
At the same time, she muttered in her heart. Why is my mother getting more and more fierce, when she was gentle before, she cried when she hugged herself.
Qiao Sumo covered her forehead, when she first saw Ji Xiang so strong, she was shocked because she was afraid that Xiang'er would hurt her muscles and bones. Later, she really misestimated this strength, and the stone fell into her hands, and it could only be the turn of a dead end.
She was really afraid that Ji Xiang couldn't control her strength and hurt others and herself.
"I'll scream in the future, my mother's ears are not deaf." Qiao Sumo wanted to go up to help, but Ji Xiang had already set up the stone mill immediately. praised Grandpa Liao's big knife behavior a few words, jumped in front of Hanzi again, picked up the pottery bowl, and checked it.
Well, the portion is still there, and it looks like it's quite a lot.
"If you peel a little more, if you bring some tofu, it's still too little." After saying that, Ji Xiang chattered again.
After he came back from Yun'an, he was still thinking about things there. She was very relieved that Fat Ni was there, and since that time, Fat Ni seems to have changed. Quietly in the garden, quietly practicing calligraphy. The two grandmothers who sent it were also very capable, and they took care of it properly. In addition, Sun Wei replied to the letter and arrived at the Meng Mansion in a few days, and the news of the old lady's treatment also reached the ears of the second master, and the Meng Mansion was much more lenient to Fat Ni.
She was most worried about Caidie, but there was no news.
Hearing that Song Zeming came home and suppressed the Liu family, Caidie was fortunate to gasp. Maybe she understood that this was her own choice, so she never asked Ji Xiang for help.
The Wang family has no livelihood and is troubled, and the yard is lively, and occasionally thinks about Ji Xiang. The biggest trouble recently should be Lin Wuyu's own son.
was taught by the Yu family like a gentleman, but he didn't have that life, and he was idle all day long. Books, books can't be read. Rites, no rites. He seems to see that there is no man in the family, and he is even more arrogant, letting Yujin and Minghuai be slaves and use them everywhere.
Sister Wuyu knew that it was wrong, but she didn't dare to drive him away.
As soon as he talked about this, he shed tears, saying that the child only had his mother, and if she didn't take care of him, wouldn't he let him die?
All of a sudden, let Ji Xiang go back to the past, when he took Zhang Mingzhu in, Lin Wuyu would do the same, pretending to be the master.
complained to Lin Wuyu, and she also found time to send the letter in person. I don't know how to follow up, but it's just a letter from Wang, and there is a happy meaning between the words, guessing that it is to suppress the unrelated child.
Ji Ming, who hadn't seen him for a long time, also wrote a letter, and he happened to receive it when he went out to get the stone mill today.
She opened it and saw that it was five full pages, as thick as a booklet. Unfold it and look at it, it is densely packed with words, and when I look at it, I wrote it about two months ago.
Ji Ming said that there was not much money at home, and paper, pen and ink were very expensive, so they saved up together. The details are all about the interesting things that happened to him, such as Lian Zhi and Chunzhao won Xiucai and asked him to drink, but he didn't expect to be seen by Aunt Lian, and he went back with his ears twisted.
And the Lin family has been getting better recently, and he is no longer stupid. Ji's father misses Ji Xiang, and his body is getting weaker and weaker, and he looks forward to Ji Xiang having time to come back and see.
Ji Xiang paused, glanced at the quiet Qiao Sumo, and saw that Grandpa Liao was already sweating and was leaving.
Father Ji was the only one who was good to her in the original owner's tragic life, she sighed, this time she went back, she also went to Ji's house. No matter how much I knocked on the door, no one answered. The neighbor said that Ji Dahai was obviously at home, and she also vaguely heard the cough, so she knew that Ji Dahai deliberately stopped her at the door.
He didn't want this Ji Xiang to have any more contact with them, he always felt sorry for Ji Xiang.
I know all of this.
She didn't hate, but she couldn't forgive the Lin family for the original owner.
That home is the tomb of the original owner.
Alas-
Continuing to look down, Ji Ming said again, he made progress in his homework, and Mr. praised him. It's just that he doesn't want to be an official, so after taking the Xiucai exam, he opened a private school to take care of his parents.
He seemed to be afraid that Ji Xiang would misunderstand, so he explained it in small characters.
It's not because the money is not enough, but because the parents are old and want to support themselves at home.
Ji Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, Ji Ming now has more ideas.
There are mostly trivial things in the back, and it seems that he wants to write everything down and tell Ji Xiang that he is doing well.
Putting away the letter, Ji Xiang's heart was full, she was very happy that Ji Ming was on the right path, instead of being an ignorant person.
"Xiang'er, come and drink plum wine."
Qiao Sumo beckoned and asked everyone to come around.
Grandpa Liao wiped his hands with a towel at this time, saw the bowl of the little family, and said, this is the woman's drink.
He is an elder, although everyone disagrees and does not refute it.
Seeing that no one responded, Grandpa Liao coughed, "I'm going to see my friend, and I won't be back for the past two days." Ren Wusheng, Hanzi, the two of you take care of your master. ”
"Grandpa, where are you going?"
Ji Xiang took a sip and asked suspiciously. Grandpa doesn't go early or late, why don't you leave today. Also, how can Grandpa still have friends in Kyoto, don't talk about it, Grandpa's identity is special, and the emperor doesn't want to see him?
"Your daughter's family, why are you asking so much?"
He rolled his face and left.
The door closed steadily, Ji Xiang stared at the gap, and asked in a deep voice: "Ren Wusheng, is it that Marquis Yun has returned to Beijing?" ”
She really can't find it, which one will let Grandpa out.
Ren Wusheng lowered his eyebrows respectfully, "Yes, Marquis Yun set off yesterday and came back with Shi Hui." ”
"The dam corruption case has been clarified?"
"The officials involved in the case have basically been arrested, and there are still many big officials, so they can't get to the bottom of it." Among them is a prime minister Fu Cheng, his concubine is a harem concubine, and his granddaughter is married to the prince, plus he is the founder of the country, and the peach and plum are all over the world.
Domino effect.
If Yun Tianlang did not have sufficient evidence, he could not be convicted.
Drip, drip, drip.
Listening attentively, Zhang Bangfu came with a hurried dripping sound.
Ji Xiang was startled, and couldn't help but tremble, Ren Wusheng on the other side thought that Mrs. was afraid of hearing these words, and explained that Gongzi was not involved, so that she could rest assured.
Ji Xiang couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, and instructed them to grind pumpkin seeds.
Zhang Brufu said: [The red envelope task is finally here, hurry up, the host hurry up and take a look.] ]
The cover of the red envelope reads: Mission details.
The small characters underneath, like a fly's head, are neatly sized. Ji Xiang hadn't seen it for a long time, and for a while he felt that his eyes were going to be blinded.
[Help the male protagonist completely solve the flood in Shencheng,Get the fragments of the logistics company *2] The flood is not solved.,Why do you still say that you help the male owner to solve it?
She is also aware of current affairs, and she will ask Ren Wusheng about many things. The news that came up was obviously basically resolved, but I was afraid that the mob would riot.
[The host is completely resolved.] ]
That means that the city of Shen should be free of floods.
Oh my God, Ji Xiang exclaimed.
How to do this, she is not a talent in this area.
The system gave a way, that is, to let Ji Xiang go to the vicinity of the water flow, and bring the terrain and the factors that will cause flooding into the system and give a solution.
It's just that this method is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and can't be completed without a month.
Knowing that he was going to Shencheng, Ji Xiang was excited for a while and scared for a while.
The excitement is because Chen Xie An, scared, about the road can only go by himself, and when he encounters bandits again, I am afraid that he is not so lucky as last time.
I talked to Qiao Sumo about this and was strongly opposed.
Ji Xiang didn't hesitate and told her that he was definitely going to go. I haven't been a mother for more than ten years, and Qiao Sumo compromised.
Before going to Shencheng, she went to Yulongfang to pay a large sum of money. I bought food for disaster relief, medicinal herbs, and some warm clothes and quilts.
The whole two carts will definitely be treated as fat sheep.
There was no way, she went to find the dart car again and escorted her all the way.
Ren Wusheng stayed to protect Qiao Sumo, and Hanzi was also left, so it was not convenient to take him with him.
Fortunately, the journey went smoothly, Ji Xiang himself didn't expect that not only were there no thieves along the way, but there were not even a few figures.
When I arrived at Shencheng, I saw the army stationed in the distance.
She got out of the carriage, and a man in well-fitting armor with eyes like the moon was already waiting.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time." He spoke, arms outstretched. Ji Xiang didn't know why, she wanted to laugh, but in the end she still cried and rushed into his hard arms.
Wiping away the two hot tears, Chen Xie An pinched Ji Xiang's cheek. "You're all fat, haven't you ever thought about me?"
If it was before, Ji Xiang would say a few words to him. But now, she stretched out her arms and touched her sunken cheek, which had a new scar on the brow bone. She was distressed and sobbed. "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt."
The man's broad hand grasped her hand and wrapped her tightly. It hurts, but when he sees Ji Xiang, he doesn't hurt.
"You've lost weight." Woo woo, Ji Xiang couldn't hold back at all and cried. "I told you to eat well, didn't you listen to me? Chen Jiean, you do this every time, don't take me, I thought you would take care of yourself, but why, why should you belittle yourself. Do you know it, I'm worried about you. I think crankily every day, afraid that something will happen to you. ”
"I don't dare to go to you, I'm afraid to disturb you."
She was really, really sad, and she didn't tell her if she was hurt.
"Alright."
Chen Xie sighed and hugged her in his arms. He knows, he knows that baby Xiang'er is not happy.
"Are you hungry?"
Ji Xiang was tired of crying, plus this was a military camp, it was already embarrassing to cry for so long. "Well, I'm hungry."
"I've got a meal for you, eat some first."
She sniffed hard and said in a nasal voice. "I also brought some food, and you can share it with everyone then."
The little daughter-in-law's face was red from crying, and Chen Xie An's smile was good.
Not far away, a group of wounded men in black were recuperating.
They drove Ji Xiang away and killed the bandits in front, and also drove the homeless people away, tired, sleepy and injured.
"Damn!"
One of them scolded.
"Boss, let's go, these girls are here, they don't need our protection."
The boss had a calm face, he couldn't leave yet, the master said that Ji Xiang must be protected, if they were injured a little, they would die.
The sky was blue, the clouds were thin, and a few crows flew by.
"Wait, we have to escort her back to Beijing."
Alas - I don't know who sighed first.
I don't know who muttered in a whisper, the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass.
