In the midst of the chaos, the hot summer passed like this.

Fu Jian's 800,000 soldiers and horses have been stationed in Huishui for more than a month, and there is no sign of crossing the river to start fighting.

The head of the Xie family, when the prime minister Xie An sent his second son Xie Yan and nephew Xie Xuan to lead the troops, and Fu Jian looked at each other across the river.

Because of the loss of life and money by crossing the river, both sides did not want to cross the river, so they confronted each other.

Hagi Niang thought this scene was very interesting, she imagined Xie Yan and Fu Jian standing by the river and shouting at each other, such as "come and beat me, stupid" or something.

It's fun to think about.

History shouldn't be changed, Hagi Niang is not worried about Xie Yan at all, he will definitely be able to return victoriously.

Hagi Niang shook her fan while thinking about her heart, the sky was slightly cool, the wind was blowing very comfortably, since the last time I went shopping in Jiankang and bought a rattan rocking chair back, Hagi Niang fell in love with the entertainment activity of drinking tea and enjoying the cool in the yard alone, hiding in the yard so as not to listen to my mother's nagging, the most annoying female red horse.

Squinting her eyes with satisfaction and shaking it twice, Hagi Niang suddenly found a pair of shoes at the root of the wall, startled, opened her eyes and took a closer look, it turned out that the little boy who came to eat last time came again, and as usual, her face was still full of mud.

Are you a native grandson, can you tell me how you got in?

Hagi Niang smiled and called him: "Qinu, are you hungry again?" ”

The clear big eyes dimmed, and Qinu was still the stubborn little boy: "I changed my name to Jinu."

Although it was a little strange, Hagi didn't ask much, just beckoned him into the house to wash his hands and face, and gave him pastries.

Only Cai Feng was embroidering a handkerchief for Haginiang in the house, and Mother Li took the other three girls to the warehouse.

Cai Feng went to the small kitchen for a turn, filled a bowl of lily and lotus seed soup, and brought back all the hot shredded radish rolls on the stove.

Hagi Niang didn't let the slave eat, and the slave pouted angrily. Cai Feng hurriedly brought hot water to serve the slave to wash his face and wipe his hands, and the slave happily started eating.

"My name is Zang Hagi Niang, you can call me Sister Hagi. What about you, whose child are you? ”

"My surname is Liu." The little boy's eyes were misty again, and he was very cute: "My mother is dead, my father doesn't want me anymore, and I don't know what my last name is." “

Hagi didn't know how to comfort him, how similar their backgrounds were.

In the end, she only held back one sentence: "My mother is also dead." "It's nothing when I say it, but I feel very sad when I say it, thinking of my future, thinking of my marriage that was taken care of by the Zheng family, although I eat a lot and wear a lot, and I am much happier than sending slaves, but I am the same rootless duckweed as him, no one can make decisions for himself, no one can protect himself.

Tears slipped out unconsciously, causing the slave to be at a loss, and the little chubby hand stained with dim sum crumbs wiped two handfuls on her face indiscriminately, and said anxiously: "You, don't cry." "I found that my hands were very dirty, and I was a little embarrassed to retract my hands and hide them behind me, and my timid appearance was very cute, and I was so graceful and graceful at a young age, and my charming and shy posture was more delicate than that of a little girl.

Hagi Niang burst into tears and smiled, and asked, "Where do you live now, and how did you climb into our yard?" ”

"I live in my aunt's house, my aunt's surname is Zhao, Sister Hagi, am my surname Liu or Zhao?"

It's a tough question.

"Aren't you called Jinu, I only know that Jinu is my good brother, and I don't care if Jinu is Liu Jinu or Zhao Jinu."

Jinu smiled happily, the happiness of a child is really simple.

"Tell you secretly, there is a hole in the wall of your house, and adults can't climb in, but I can climb in." The slave's eyes were shining, and he had an expression that I was very good, come and praise me.

What the!

When exactly did this hole come into existence and how was it dug? The word "private teaching" came to Haginiang's mind.

If it is artificial, does it have anything to do with Zheng and his mother? I remember that Li's mother said that when my mother was pregnant with Brother Xi, she lived in Xiyuan!

Do you want someone to take a look? But when it was sealed, how did this kid come in and eat?

Hagi Niang smiled on her face, silent, but her heart was full of turns.

In the puzzled eyes of the slave, Hagi Niang told him not to tell others about the hole in the wall, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come in and play with his sister.

The slave nodded several times.

The next day, Haginiang took Li's mother into Jiankang City to visit the market, saying that she needed Li's mother to buy some home decorations, and she didn't even bring Cailing.

Although the Qin army pressed the border, Jiankang remained unmoved as usual, and the bazaar was bustling, and there was no sign of panic.

It's no wonder that Xie An is too capable and too good at appeasing the people, and almost everyone in Jiankang City trusts the Xie family almost blindly.

Hagi Niang found a restaurant called Mingyueju on the most prosperous square street, asked for a private seat, and took her mother up to drink tea.

It is not easy to park on the square street, so Hagi Niang instructed the coachman Sang Hu to come back to pick up people after an hour.

"Mom, sit down, I want to ask my mom if I have something." Hagi Niang asked for a pot of tea and four-color refreshments, and after driving away Xiao Er, she hurriedly asked, "Mom, do you know that there is a hole in the wall of our West Garden?" “

Mother Li's face changed: "Really? “

"What the slave said, he said he climbed in through the hole in the wall. I didn't look for it carefully, but I was afraid of startling the snake, and Xiyuan was not monolithic. “

"That's right." Li's mother recalled: "The girl didn't know, the lady was very pregnant at the beginning, and the female husband who invited the fetus also said that the lady did not need special maintenance and should be a smooth birth." It was only later that the old man was busy with the official affairs of the government, and when he came back, his temper was not good, and he became angry with his wife, and his wife's face gradually became worse. In the last few months of Mrs. Huaixi's brother, the master rarely came to Xiyuan, and he left in response to the scene, although Mrs. did not complain, but the slave knew that Mrs. was bitter. At that time, the lady ate and drank in a small kitchen, and the fresh vegetables and fruits were purchased and cooked by the slaves and maids, and were never handed over to others. The door of Xiyuan was also very tight, Ruan's mother was still there at that time, she was older than me, and several little girls were well managed. ”

Hagi Niang listened, and couldn't help but bend her index finger and gently tap the table a few times, thinking carefully.

If the portal is really tight, what's going on with the hole in the wall? If nothing happens later, it's okay, since something happened, it doesn't matter how much this hole in the wall can't run away.

How can there be no cause for nothing?

"Mom, do you know the current whereabouts of Ruan's mother?"

At that time, because it was said that the jade comb that was lost in the girl's room was in Ruan's mother's cage, although the discerning person knew at a glance that it was a crime to be added, but the girl was still young, and Ruan's mother was speechless, and there was no one who could call the shots, so she had to give up an old face to beg the lord to take it lightly, because the old man thought that it was Mrs.'s personal grandmother, and he didn't beat or scold him, but sent it back to Ruan's house. If the girl seriously wants to find out the reason for the incident back then, I am afraid that she will have to be closer to the Ruan family in Liyang, but after the lady goes, the lord will not let the girl interact with the Ruan family, and the slave and maid will have no good way. “

"If the child told her father that the Zheng family was greedy for Mo'er's mother's dowry, and begged the Ruan family to bring the dowry list of the year to make the decision for the son, does the mother think it is feasible?"

"The slave maid is trying to discuss the girl's marriage with the girl, and after the lady goes, the girl's marriage is decided by the Zheng family, although Zheng has no intention of urging the marriage at present, but the girl does not know whether the Zheng family is already talking about the girl's marriage, if he tears his face with the Zheng family, fortunately succeeds, the Zheng family cannot control the girl's marriage; If there is no evidence to prove that Zheng is greedy for ink or assassinates his wife, he must be careful that Zheng uses the girl's marriage to make it bad, even if he accuses the girl of disobedience and unfilial piety. It is not advisable for a girl to have a hard time with the Zheng family, and the girl's marriage is a lifelong relationship. ”

In this way, if you are not absolutely sure, you can't tear your face with the Zheng family.

However, even if she doesn't break with the Zheng family, won't the Zheng family stumble on her marriage? Obviously, it still will, but it will be more or less affectionate.

"Mom, can you ask the steward to repair a letter to Ruan's house in Liyang, and say that I miss Ruan's mother very much, and ask to tell me on my behalf."

Mother Li's eyes lit up, yes, the girl can't go to Ruan's house, Ruan's mother can come and see the girl.
