After lunch, Yan Qi drank tea, looked at the blind man and said, "How is your host's leg?" ”

"It's not a leg, it's a foot." The blind man said, "It's gone." ”

Yan Qi frowned.

He asked Jiang Ji, and Wang Blind replied obviously Jiang Lingran.

Did she stumble? When?

Thinking in his heart, he asked unconsciously.

When asked, he frowned, the corners of his jaw tightened, and there was irritability in his eyes.

When he met her, he was never calm.

The blind man took a sip of tea, felt that all the greasy after the meal was gone, and smacked his lips comfortably: "The day of the first snow." ”

Yan Qi's eyes lit up when he heard the "first snow", and the emotions rising in his eyes sank.

The blind man then added, "It is said that my foot was slipped by snow." The ankle was swollen to the thickness of the calf. ”

Yan Qi's brows were about to twist into hemp rope when he heard this, and he didn't care about anything else, and blurted out: "Why is it so serious?" How's it going now? ”

The blind man smiled leisurely, and said without hesitation: "Hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, and wait to be raised." ”

"The last time I dislocated my arm, I told her to remember to be careful every day, this bone is delicate, if there is a root of the disease, it will be a big trouble."

Yan Qi's face was solemn and silent.

His mind was full of her feet, and he secretly complained that he shouldn't have walked so fast just now, and that he should have waited for her to get out of the carriage and come in by himself.

The blind man looked at him, drank his tea slowly, and left.

On the twenty-ninth day, Jiang Lingran sent Jiang Yanle back for the New Year.

At the gate of the house, I met Afu, who came back from nowhere.

Seeing them, he turned over his horse neatly, and stepped forward with a smile: "What is Miss Jiang going to do?" ”

Jiang Lingran smiled and said, "I'll send Yan Le home." ”

Ah Fu didn't wait for Jiang Zeroran to ask her, so she smiled and said, "We went hunting in Baoshan and hunted a big wild boar, and we made dumplings to eat in Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

Jiang Lingran smiled, and was about to speak, when he heard the sound of horses' hooves, he turned his head and saw Yan Qi Baixiang and seven or eight little guys rushing back.

The last horse had no one on its back, but a wild boar tied up.

Jiang Lingran heard Afu say "we", but he didn't expect that this also included Yan Qi.

Before her eyes could meet, she lowered her eyes.

The horse's hooves stopped in her sight, and Jiang Lingran's hand in his sleeve tightened.

Yan Qi's gaze turned around on her skirt.

The winter coat is heavy, and with a cloak draped, naturally you can't see anything.

But she can stand and walk, so she thinks it's okay, right? Yan Qi thought so and loosened his heartstrings slightly.

His gaze fell on the man beside her who was staring at him.

"It's small."

Jiang Lingran's tightness was inexplicably relieved by his clear call.

But the bottom of my heart was sour because I would have this emotion, and my head drooped lower for a while.

Jiang Yanle looked up at the person on horseback, and said with a smile: "I heard that my brother hunted a wild boar?" ”

Yan Qi laughed when she heard her call her brother, and was about to speak, but she heard Jiang Lingran scolding softly: "Yan Le, don't be rude!" ”

Jiang Lingran rarely scolded Jiang Yanle, and when Jiang Yanle heard this, he felt that he had made a big mistake and was so frightened that he was silent.

The round eyes looked at Jiang Lingran uneasily.

Jiang Lingran glanced at her, realized that his tone was serious, raised his hand and rubbed her head, and said softly: "Be good, give a good salute to Mr. Qi." ”

said that he was bent on his knees, accused Jiang Yanle of being rude, and asked for peace again.

Yan Qi smiled.

I was very reluctant to see her submissive, alienated and indifferent appearance, so I took a deep breath and turned my eyes away.

took out a purse from his arms: "Don't be small, give you New Year's money." He said and threw it to Afu.

Afu took it in her hand, and then respectfully handed it to Jiang Yanle.

Jiang Yanle didn't dare to accept it.

Jiang Lingran looked at the bulging persimmon red tuanfu purse, and was just about to refuse, when he saw the horse's hooves in his sight move, and swallowed back the words on his lips.

Afu watched Yan Qi leave, and couldn't help but stuff the purse into Jiang Yanle's hand and led the horse away.

On the carriage, Jiang Yanle spread out his purse, poured the contents into the palm of his hand, and showed Jiang Lingran with a smile: "Fourth sister, look, what beautiful beads." ”

Jiang Lingran came back to his senses and lowered his eyes to look.

In the palm of his pink and fleshy hand, he held four or five beads of different sizes and colors.

The color of the beads in the sun is transparent and warm.

She thought it was gold and silver, but it turned out to be all kinds of precious stones.

The gems are all polished into beads of different sizes, some are perforated, some are not, and it is okay to wear bracelets and hairpin rings.

She frowned, it was more valuable than the gold and silver bills.

Xiang Zhu looked at it and said with a smile: "It's really beautiful, it's not easy to polish and punch these gemstone beads, I didn't expect to collect so much." ”

Jiang Yanle didn't dare to accept it when he heard that it was so precious.

Pushed it into Jiang Lingran's hand and said, "The fourth sister will return it to my brother.... Thinking of Jiang Lingran's reprimand, she changed her words again: "Give it back to Mr. Qi." ”

Jiang Lingran saw that she liked it, so he said, "If he gives it to you, you can take it, it's okay." ”

Jiang Yanle listened, so he accepted it with peace of mind, shook his purse with a smile, and listened to the beads hitting each other, clanging, extremely pleasant.

In the blink of an eye, Chinese New Year's Eve.

The brother and sister kept the New Year together, opened the ancestral hall at a slight dawn to worship their parents, and then gave a reward to the people in the house and went to the big house.

Although the family was separated, the old lady was still there, and they only invited back their parents' tablets.

I still have to go back to worship my ancestors.

Jiang Ji was worried that Jiang Lingran would feel uncomfortable, so he said, "I'll just go back by myself." Your feet aren't healed yet, just rest at home. ”

Jiang Lingran took a blanket to cover him on his lap and said with a smile: "My brother is not at home, I am even more boring, and the New Year will be more lively." ”

said again: "Let's go to the third uncle's house later, I'm going to ask for New Year's money." ”

Jiang Ji smiled: "I don't want it for you, but I want the third uncle." ”

Jiang Lingran was wrapped in a cloak and sat next to Jiang Ji: "Do you want to give the New Year's money to the elders, my brother will give it, I can't hold it down." ”

This was meant to be funny, but after saying that, both of them were stunned and were speechless for a while.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ji gave her half of the blanket and chuckled: "Then let's ask the third uncle for two more." ”

Jiang Lingran smiled and said yes.

The carriage passed by the next door, the curtain of the car was blown by the wind, and Jiang Lingran saw the little maid entering and leaving the house.

Yesterday, Xiaofuzi came, and he stayed for a long time before leaving.

Then Gao Desheng also came, and did not leave until evening.

In the morning, firecrackers were also lit in the next house after they rang out firecrackers.

Xiaofuzi and Gao Desheng came to invite him into the palace, but he didn't go and stayed in his house for the New Year.

It's even more lonely than their siblings.

Jiang Ji looked at her with a depressed expression, and said softly: "I heard that he gave Yan Le New Year's money." ”

Jiang Lingran nodded: "I sent Yan Le back to the house that day, and I met him at the gate of the house." ”

Jiang Ji compacted the curtain for him to isolate the cold wind. "I thought he wouldn't bother with Jiang anymore."

Jiang Lingran was silent for a while: "He's not that kind of person. ”

Jiang Ji frowned slightly, looked at her for a while, and didn't speak.

Silent all the way to Datong Street.
