Chapter 577: A Waist Card
As soon as she left, Hu Ximei helped Widow Xie in and sat on the edge of the kang.
"I don't know what's wrong, I have a terrible headache, and my hands and feet are still not very strong, how do you feel about it?"
Ji Yu knew that it was related to medicine, but she couldn't say it explicitly, so she just said: "Maybe it's smoking, I'm fine." ”
"Young people, it's just that they recover quickly."
Widow Xie sighed, looking a little hesitant.
"Girl, you said this fire...... Could it be that I burned the pot last night and the firewood was not extinguished? ”
The more Widow Xie thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible.
If this is the case, then she is a sinner, not to mention that Ji Yu has no home, and even her life is almost lost.
Ji Yu said: "If the fire hadn't been extinguished, it would have burned a long time ago, where could you wait so late, Aunt Xie, don't think about it." ”
Widow Xie sighed, said a wish, took Ji Yu's hand and patted it.
"They said that you pulled Aunt Xie out of the sea of fire, it was that time, do you still remember me......"
There is obviously someone else who saved the widow, but the truth obviously can't be said, so Ji Yu can only admit it with a clear conscience.
Widow Xie said strangely: "How did you escape, I can't remember it at all?" You memorized me? ”
Not to mention that Ji Yu still has an injury on her leg, even under normal conditions, it is difficult to move herself on her back.
But who knows who knows the survival force that bursts out when people are in a desperate situation? One year she was in the quarry, and when the rolling stones came at her, she thought she was dead, but thinking about the children in the family, she ran for her life.
Ji Yu said vaguely: "You fell asleep at the time." ”
Widow Xie was even more uncomfortable: "I'm useless, I slept so dead, and I said that taking care of you almost dragged you down......"
Ji Yu comforted her a few words, afraid that she would ask for details again, so she hurriedly said: "Aunt Xie, if you have a headache, you can sleep for a while, I am much better, I want to go out and have a look." ”
Widow Xie only thought that she was going to see what the house was burned to, and she did not stop her.
"Let my sister accompany you, don't feel uncomfortable, let's build the house when it's gone, Aunt Xie has it when the money is gone, you will live here during this time."
Widow Xie thought that Ji Yu's money should have been burned, but it was not.
To maintain the operation of the three workshops and Ji's Flavor Industry, and now there is another logistics office that is about to open, Ji Yu's net worth has indeed gone up, but there is not much cash in her hand, and she has hidden it in the hole in the East House, all the valuables are there, and it is no big deal.
But she still smiled: "That's natural, this place is like my mother's home, I'm desperate now, you can't take me in." ”
Widow Xie and Sister Hu were both amused, and the atmosphere was finally not so heavy.
Ji Xuelan was thoughtful, she brought two sets of her own clothes when she first came, both of them were new, Ji Yu took one set casually and changed them on, she and Ji Xuelan were of similar size, but they barely fit.
"Let's come back after a look, don't stay too long, Dacheng went to the town to grab medicine, come back early and drink medicine, your leg is still injured."
Regarding Widow Xie's chatter, Ji Yu responded one by one.
Her legs did hurt a little, and she was a little uncomfortable walking, so Hu Ximei held her arm and acted as her crutch.
Ji Yu didn't go to see her home, and went directly to the earth house.
The manpower arranged by Ji Xuelan has been put in place, and the shovel is lifted, and the shovel is in full swing.
The earthen house was small and made of adobe, so it was easy to clean up, and it took four or five men more than half an hour to get it done.
Ji Xuelan guessed that Ji Yu should have lost something important here, so she instructed her in advance, and everyone was extra careful when cleaning up, but nothing was gained.
Ji Yu was a little disappointed.
On the one hand, I feel that someone has taken the lead - the earthen house does not collapse sooner or later, why is it at this time?
On the other hand, I felt that I had thought about it - if I could take Dabao away silently, I must not be an ordinary person, if it was really Dabao's family who found her, not to mention how grateful I was to her, at least I should see her, why do I do banditry.
If the other party really did it in private, then it is very likely that the people who killed themselves were the people who kidnapped Dabao-
"Xiaoyu." Ji Xuelan walked over, "It's almost clear, according to what you said, the ground has also been dug up, you see ......"
"That's it, cousin. Whether it was someone who helped find someone yesterday or helped clean it up today, if it was a workshop worker, the salary would be doubled, and if it was a villager in the village, you would like to express your heart for me. ”
"Hey, I'll take care of it, you can go back quickly."
As soon as Hu Ximei and Ji Yu approached the gate of Hu's house, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves.
When I turned my head, it was the old owner of Sui and a few people from the horse farm.
Seeing that Ji Yu was unharmed, the old owner of Sui was obviously relieved.
"The old farmer has something to look for me?"
Judging by his expression, it was obvious that he had heard something.
The old farmer of Sui dismounted and said: "The old man went to Yeyang this morning to meet friends, and I happened to meet people from your village, and I heard that something happened to Ji Niangzi's family, so I came to take a look...... It's good if people are fine. ”
Ji Yu will be skeptical.
She suspected that the two black-clothed men who protected her last night were borrowed by Guan Shan from the old owner of Sui, but after thinking about it carefully, there was an aura similar to Guan Shan's between the two people's behavior, which seemed to come from the military camp, or was it Guan Shan's previous manpower?
However, Ji Yu knew that this old Sui farmer did have some connection with Guan Shan.
She had the heart to ask, but she knew that she couldn't ask anything, so she simply kept her mouth shut.
When Widow Xie heard that the owner of Guanshan was coming, she got up and greeted her, and she started complaining.
"You're the old owner of Sui, aren't you? There are many people in your horse farm, why did you send Guanshan out? When will he return? You said that there are so many things going on at home, he is not here at this time, and everything has to be borne by the girl, can you bring a letter to call him back early? ”
Guan Shan has not returned home for many days, and everyone naturally thinks that he has gone out again, and he has done it in the past, although not much.
The old farmer of Sui glanced at Ji Yu, and then looked at Widow Xie: "The old man is also looking forward to his return as soon as possible." ”
This was obviously a sloppy remark, but Widow Xie thought that he had agreed, so she hurriedly changed her smile and invited someone in for tea.
"The old man still has something to do, so he won't stay longer. Guan Shan is the pillar of our horse farm, and if something happened to his family, the old man couldn't help but ask, this is some heart......"
The old farmer of Sui took out a bulging money bag and handed it to Ji Yu, which contained not silver, but silver tickets.
"All the losses of the family are borne by the horse farm, and on the way to the road, I passed the brick kiln of Daguanzhuang, and the bricks and tiles were also given by the way, as well as the wood and stone needed, and I thought that it could be delivered to the ...... in the afternoon."
Widow Xie nodded again and again when she heard this, and said in her heart that this owner is not bad.
Ji Yu shook her head: "If you get it, you don't have to do this." ”
"Ji Niangzi misunderstood, the bricks, tiles and timber are the old man's intentions, but these are not.
Do you know, since Brother Guan came to our Sui Family Horse Farm, the horse farm has made countless profits, and the remuneration he deserves is more than that. It's just that he refuses to ask for more, and only receives ten taels a month, but the old man saves it for him.
Some time ago, another batch of military horses was transported, and I once again offered to give him a gratuity, but he did not refuse, Ji Niangzi knows why? I heard that Ji Niangzi plans to build a school, which is a good thing! ”
Ji Yu gritted her teeth now when she heard Guan Shan, how could she talk about receiving these so-called rewards.
Widow Xie doesn't think so, in her opinion, these are what Guan Shan deserves, and that is Ji Yu's. Husband and wife, who doesn't take it all the same?
What's more, now is the time when money is needed, Widow Xie can't watch Ji Yu make a mistake, and stretch out her hand to take the money bag.
The money bag was taken off, and without waiting for Ji Yu to react, the old owner of Sui said goodbye and turned over and galloped away.
Ji Yu: "......"
Widow Xie stuffed the money bag into her hand: "It's okay now, the sleepiness touches the pillow." Looking at the young and old, this owner is quite benevolent and righteous, mainly because of Guan Shan's ability. ”
"Mother! The medicine was bought. ”
Hu Dacheng came running with two strings of medicine bags sweating profusely.
Hu Ximei took it and went back to the house to decoct the medicine, but Ji Yu's gaze stayed on Hu Dacheng's waist for a long time - there was a waist card falling indecently.
"Dacheng, where did you get this?"
"What's this?" Hu Dacheng untied it and handed it to her, "I picked it up near the school school yesterday when I got out of school." ”
Ji Yu turned over the waist card and looked at it several times
The front is no different from the waist card that Mama Yao showed her that day, except that the back is engraved with the word "Chengming".
The Marquis of Hanchang's Mansion ...... Near the school......
Ji Yu's face was cold, and she held her waist card tightly in her palm.
