Chapter One Hundred and One: Poor Child
As he spoke, he lifted the quilt and was about to lie down.
Yi Jiaren silently raised the whip...
Xiao Yuwen quickly sat up and leaned against the bed frame, "Lady, what do you want to ask, I can answer while I sit." ”
Yi Jiaren put down the whip and sat up a little, "You said that the portrait of Horimuro is your biological mother, what's the matter?" ”
"Alas!" Xiao Yuwen sighed, took Yi Jiaren's hand and held it in his hand, and told her the story about his biological mother, "Back then, my biological father was still a military general in the DPRK and China, and he often secretly took my biological mother to fight in the south and the north. My uncle Xiao Jingkun was also a hussar general at the time, and occasionally took his aunt Wu to travel with the army. Once they went out to attack the Western Night Kingdom, but only my biological father and uncle and aunt returned, and my biological mother was nowhere to be found..."
Seeing that he seemed a little sad, Yi Jiaren hurriedly shook his hand, "Don't say it's uncomfortable." ”
Xiao Yuwen smiled indifferently, "It's okay, I want you to know everything about my husband." ”
Yi Jiaren nodded, indeed a little curious, "Is your biological mother captured?" ”
Xiao Yuwen shook his head, "No, that battle was won, and not a single soldier was lost." ”
"Why is that?"
"They first said that they died of illness on the way back, and then they said that they were trafficked into slavery in a foreign country by tooth lovers. In short, there is no one alive, and no corpse is dead. After a moment of silence, Xiao Yuwen said again, "However, the area around the West Night Country is the only way for the Hu people and the Tianshun Dynasty to trade, and it is not impossible to be trafficked to a foreign country." ”
"So you hate the slave traders so much?" Yi Jiaren understands him a little now.
"Yes." Xiao Yuwen breathed a deep sigh of relief, "If it weren't for tracking down these tooth lovers, I wouldn't have seen the last of the real Yi Jiaren." ”
Yi Jiaren comforted, "You don't need to be too sad, don't you still have her shadow on me, and you just said that I am her." ”
"Hmm." Xiao Yuwen smiled and nodded, and said with palpitations, "It's a shame that those teeth that have seen you have been disposed of by me, or it will be troublesome if Xu Yuanhui finds out." ”
Speaking of this, Yi Jiaren also had a cold back, got up and knelt on the bed and said to Xiao Yuwen, "Xiao Daxia's life-saving grace, the little woman is unforgettable." ”
"I hope that the lady will make a promise." Xiao Yuwen raised his eyebrows and stretched out his hand tentatively.
"Hmm..."Yi Jiaren snorted and raised the whip again...
"Lady, lie down and be careful of catching a cold." Xiao Yuwen immediately withdrew the hand on Yi Jiaren's shoulder, and An Fen leaned back on the bed frame.
Yi Jiaren lay down and covered the quilt and continued the topic just now, "How old were you at that time?" ”
"It's still a baby."
"So small! Haven't you ever seen your birth mother's face? ”
Xiao Yuwen smiled bitterly, "Isn't there that portrait?" ”
"Alas!" What a cute child, Yi Jiaren sighed, "What about your biological father?" ”
"Alas!" Xiao Yuwen also sighed, "Ran away from home and wandered the world." ”
"Then why didn't you go to him?"
"That's it, he doesn't want me, he wants to live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes, why should I go to him."
This... My mother doesn't kiss, my father doesn't want it, and my adoptive mother is still so harsh.
It's just miserable!
Yi Jiaren's sympathy almost flooded into a vast ocean, holding Xiao Yuwen's hand tightly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely try my best to like you and be good to you in the future." ”
Xiao Yuwen smiled gently, like solid ice turning into water, "Okay, wait and see for your husband." ”
After a moment of silence, Yi Jiaren said indignantly, "Although you are not born to your mother, she is too harsh on you, she only gives you two or two months of money every month, and it is even more pitiful if you have a small treasury." ”
"Nope." Xiao Yuwen shook his head, "On the contrary, my mother is very good to me, my food and clothing are all arranged by her, and they are all the best, I don't need to use money in the first place, and I give two taels a month." ”
Hearing him say this, and then looking at the furnishings of Jingyue Xuan's room, which one is exquisite, and each one needs more than 100 gold.
"But why did she only give us those things when we parted?"
"One is that the Xiao family really doesn't have much money, and the other is that she is forcing me."
Yi Jiaren was surprised, "Forcing you?" Why is she pushing you? ”
"She seems to have found out that I have a small treasury, so she wronged you, see if I don't care, how do you know that you went to Nanshan Academy to be a gentleman and opened a shop, and you don't need me to raise you for self-sufficiency."
"Huh!" Yi Jiaren was a little proud, "Then isn't she very angry." ”
Xiao Yuwen shook his head, "Why should she be angry, you and I are both self-reliant, she also saves a sum of expenses, she doesn't lose anything." ”
After talking in the middle of the night, Xiao Yuwen leaned on the bed frame and yawned, drowsy, "Lady, can I go to sleep?" ”
"Nope." Yi Jiaren was also sleepy, but she didn't want to sleep yet, and she still had a lot of questions to ask.
"Alas! What more questions do you have? Xiao Yuwen had already closed his eyes.
"How did you do it?"
"Find a few of my subordinates to dig it quietly." Xiao Yuwen closed his eyes and replied.
"Do you have any subordinates?"
"Hmm."
Yi Jiaren yawned, "Aren't you going to tell your mother about your Horimuro?" ”
"Nope."
Xiao Yuwen was so sleepy that he didn't want to speak.
"Then you..."
The next morning, as soon as Yi Jiaren opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Yuwen's beautiful sleeping face in front of her, calm and gentle.
This time she didn't slap him awake, but let him fall asleep, she sat up lightly, and she couldn't help but laugh when she saw Xiao Yuwen's sleeping position.
I saw him lying on the bed with his upper body covered by the quilt, and his legs were still sitting on the ground. Can you fall asleep like this? I guess I drank some wine, and I was really sleepy.
But Yi Jiaren still has a lot of questions to ask.
Forget it, ask later.
Sighing, she got out of bed, took off his shoes, and carried him to bed so that he could sleep soundly. In the haze, Xiao Yuwen muttered, "Lady, you really pulled me to bed this time." ”
Well... Yi Jiaren rolled his eyes, and let him go.
He doesn't have to get up early to go to the academy now, just let him fall asleep. However, he didn't get up early to go to the academy.
It's that Yi Jiaren is busy grooming and dressing up, and she hasn't been to Yiyin Pavilion for two days, so she has to go and see. Although Wu Shi let the rich shopkeeper watch inside, these two people are not at ease.
and his brother Yi Linfeng was also made an official by the DPRK, so he had to congratulate him.
When I arrived at the outer courtyard, I saw Luo'er and went out. If you don't go by yourself, this girl is lazy again. Yi Jiaren stopped her and said, "Luo'er, why are you so late?" ”
Luo'er replied lightly, "What are you afraid of, isn't there still Brother Yi, he will open the door." ”
But when the two of them came to the Yiyin Pavilion unhurriedly in the carriage, they were a little dumbfounded. The door of the Yiyin Pavilion was closed, and Qin Xiang and Ai Gongzi had been waiting in front of the door for a long time with a few little dolls.
Last night, Yi Linfeng was invited to have a drink by his classmates from several previous academies, and he didn't return overnight.
The two hurriedly stepped forward to open the door and invited everyone in.
In the middle of the afternoon, Yi Linfeng came back, he was violently beaten last night, and when he returned to the Yiyin Pavilion, he went to the second floor to sleep.
Yi Jiaren hurriedly went to the teahouse to buy him a bowl of sobering soup, and saw her brother lying on the bed humming and wanting to vomit but couldn't vomit out the uncomfortable appearance, she was also distressed.
Now my brother is a court official, and there is no one to take care of him when he has more entertainment in the future. Besides, he has been living in the Yiyin Pavilion, and he doesn't have a mansion of his own, and it doesn't look like it.
But if you want to buy a house, you have to say two or three hundred taels, plus the purchase of furniture, there are no four or five hundred taels that you can't get.
