Chapter 82 Gathering and Dispersing
This little house was the most shabby dwelling in the neighborhood, and a sickly man hurried in at night, and from time to time came the cry of a baby, whose cry gradually weakened because the nurse refused to feed, and could still meow like a kitten during the day, and his voice was hoarse at night.
The man walked to the side of the bed and gently held the child in his arms, "Oh, oh, Yun'er is good, mother is back." ”
She lifted her clothes, tore off the chest strap on her chest, and saw in the bronze mirror that she was a beautiful girl, but she just tied the man's hair crown and put on the man's clothes.
The nurse came over and knelt in front of her, "Miss, I'm ...... I have something to tell you. ”
She kissed the side of the child's cheek and set the child aside, "I know what you're going to say." ”
Embarrassment flashed on the nurse's face, "There's no way around it, Miss Qingmei." ”
More than a year ago, Yan Qingmei was diagnosed by the family as pregnant, and she was only fifteen years old at the time, and she promised the second son of the Rong family.
That night, the head of the Yan family walked into his daughter's room, fed his daughter a bowl of sugar water, comforted her that he would solve the matter, and asked the culprit who seduced her to do the next thing a few times, Yan Qingmei only said nothing.
Drinking the sugar water, the little girl slowly closed her eyes, her father walked out of the room, called someone to bury the child alive, only said that he was seriously ill, Yan Qingmei's mother knelt outside the door and begged hard, begging her to do a ritual for her daughter, and then send her on the road at dawn.
Father Yan glanced back at his sleeping daughter in the room and nodded.
After listening to the conversation between the Yan family and the couple, the servant trembled with fright, and only quickly touched one heart, and before dawn, the ceremony was over, and Yan's father sent someone to see the young lady, and the room was empty.
After several inspections, the young lady's personal servants also disappeared together, and from that day on, the Yan family seemed to have no such person.
Yan Qingmei, who left the Yan family, grew her belly day by day, but fortunately she had the maid Sadai by her side. Sao Dai is illiterate, after leaving the Yan family, he married a butcher who slaughtered cattle and sheep, and he was pregnant in less than half a month.
It was one night that she had once again retrieved her unsuccessful master from the gambling house, and she scolded and dragged the butcher home, and just as she was about to reach her door, her reckless and vicious husband pushed her with his backhand, pushed her to the ground, and kicked her in the stomach.
Eight-month-old Sweep Dai was so painful that she died, someone reported a letter to Yan Qingmei, when Yan Qingmei gave birth to a child for only one month, her body was weak, she held the child, and came to her house with her feet, invited a nearby doctor, and administered needles and medicine overnight, but failed to leave Sweep Dai's child.
When she could open her eyes, she asked her to say, "Do you want to stay or come with me?" ”
On such a day, Sao Dai will never stay again, she is ruthless, she didn't bring anything, Miss Tong fled from the Southern Wei Dynasty, and she also took a small child on the way.
Yan Qingmei is not in good health, and her milk comes and goes, so she took over the task of feeding the child and watched the child at home.
Miss dressed up as a man during the day, fortune-telling on the street, reading palmistry, and unraveling marriage, the husband of the private school in her home was very good at Zhou Yi, and Yan Qingmei also followed to learn divination and fortune-telling, of course, this matter was hidden from her parents.
The life of the two of them passed quickly, and their money had already been spent, but they relied on the small money from Yan Qingmei's stall to survive, and the child was sick in the womb, and he was sick twice in three days after birth.
After coming and going, Sweep Dai got along with the doctor who diagnosed the child, Yan Qingmei saw it in her eyes, but she didn't speak, she had no way to keep Sweep Dai, and asked her to live such an undignified life with her.
On the day that Sao Dai left home, she knelt at Yan Qingmei's feet and kowtowed three times.
Yan Qingmei helped her up, "You didn't stand me, all along, I didn't live with you." ”
Sao Dai lowered her head, and her tears couldn't stop flowing, "If we meet again, the slave and maid will be a cow and a horse to repay the lady's kindness." ”
Yan Qingmei said, "The kindness between you and me has already been repaid, and we don't owe each other any more." ”
"How can I repay the life-saving grace?"
Yan Qingmei shook her head, "You have been by my side for many years, and this favor has already been returned to me, follow him with peace of mind, he is a good person, I wish you a smooth life and no more waves." ”
"Thank you, Miss."
Early in the morning of the second day, Yan Qingmei packed up her baggage, put the only remaining Jiuxiao Smoke Moon hairpin into the baggage, walked for half a day, and finally saw a hill, there was a small house made of stone under the hill, she passed by here, and saw the kind lady, she looked at people with a smile, and her hands were so warm, the same as her sister who married someone in her early years.
Along the mountain road, Yan Qingmei walked to the front of the house, there was a fence in front of the house, a black wolf dog was tethered next to the fence, and there was a chicken pen at the door, this dog was the guard who watched passers-by and did not steal chickens.
Seeing the two of them, the big black dog didn't bark, for fear of scaring the child, Yan Qingmei put the child on the steps, the child slept soundly, and there was a cloud word embroidered on the swaddling clothes, which was the name she gave her daughter, which means that she hopes that she will be like a cloud in the sky, free, unrestrained, and scattered at will.
She didn't have time to cry, but when she heard a noise in the door, she hurriedly ran away and left the child at the door of the family.
Walking to the other side of the mountain, a woodcutter asked, "The girl wants to go into the mountain?" ”
Yan Qingmei nodded, "My husband likes fishing the most, I'll go see how many he caught today." ”
"No, there is no one fishing in the lake in the back mountain."
Yan Qingmei smiled, "That lake can be called Xiaoyu Lake?" ”
"Exactly."
"That's right, my husband said he would wait for me fishing in Xiaoyu Lake."
"Okay, if you don't believe me, then you can go and see." The woodcutter looked at her like a madwoman.
Yan Qingmei walked to the lake, and walked around the lake, sacrificing sacred, but she didn't wait for the man after all.
It turned out that this was also his lie.
She cut off the future of her life for his lies.
Suddenly, the man stood in the middle of the lake and beckoned to her, "Qingmei, you come." ”
Yan Qingmei smiled, her eyes full of tears, "You villain, you said you were waiting for me here, why did you come today?" ”
He said, "I just want to be anxious about you to see if you care about me." ”
Yan Qingmei walked towards the lake step by step, the cold lake water soaked her shoes and socks, she went down further, and the skirt was already wet, that day, the lake level was quiet and cold, and when the lake water overflowed the top of Yan Qingmei's head, she hugged the man very tightly, as if in this way, they could no longer be separated.
The wooden door was pushed open, and outside the door there was a child whose face was purple from the cold, and the hostess exclaimed in surprise, "There is a child!" ”
Her husband was a woodcutter on the mountain, and he came out to take a look, "We just had a little devil in our house, where is another one?" ”
His wife patted him on the back, "This must be a gift from the mountain god, I said I wanted two children, gave birth to one, and the mountain god gave me another one." ”
Her husband smiled, "Okay, okay, let's give the child to the government, maybe someone lost it......"
When a neighbor in the mountains heard the commotion, another woodcutter befriended the woodcutter of the house, and told them about the woman he had seen today.
His wife stopped him, "Where are you going?" ”
He waved his hand, "I'm going to the mountains for some business, you take the child into the house first." ”
His wife laughed merrily, took the child in her arms, and brought into the house the burden that was beside the child, which contained several clothes and a hairpin.
She looked at it again, picked up the child and smiled against her face, "Ah, it's a little girl!" ”
The child began to cry, and she couldn't stop it, she hurriedly breastfed her, and while looking at the embroidered cloud characters, she whispered to herself, "Is that your name?" ”
Coaxed the child to sleep, she put Yun'er next to her child, "It's good, this one in my family is called Feng'er, and your name is Yun'er." ”
The woodcutter came back in the evening, soaking wet, and his wife boiled hot water, and pushed him to take a hot bath, and he soaked in the hot water, and told her about the woman's drowning.
The wife sighed, "It's also pitiful, how can you say that young girl can afford to raise this child?" ”
While gritting his teeth, "ruined the reputation of others, and refused to give the little girl a name, I must be a prodigal who has been abandoned from the beginning to the end, so that the girl has found a short sight." ”
The strength of his subordinates to rub his back was a little more, and her husband frowned in pain, "It's not me, what are you doing with me?" ”
She hurriedly laughed, "No, no, I'm angry when I think about it, and I don't have a sense of proportion under my hands." ”
The husband and wife discussed, it is better to raise this girl as their own child.
In the blink of an eye, the two children are already seven years old.
He followed his father to the mountains to collect medicine, and when he got home, the two children rushed to his mother's hug, and the woodcutter unloaded the wooden basket behind him, walked to the pot to add firewood, and smiled and talked to his wife.
The wife hugged her daughter, then put down her daughter and hugged her son, and said, "Did you bully your sister today?" ”
Before Chasing Feng could speak, the little girl interrupted repeatedly, "Mother, bully...... Bullying ......"
The little girl climbed into her mother's arms, and her mother smiled, "What does Chasing Cloud want to say?" ”
He ...... No...... Didn't bully ...... I ......"
Chasing Wind laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, "I stuttered again." ”
His mother slapped him on the buttocks, "If you dare to laugh at my sister again, I will beat your ass." ”
The little boy was bored and ran to his father to burn firewood with him.
These two are the marigold couple who live in seclusion in Donghu, they can also be famous in the rivers and lakes when they are young, and the latter two have made enemies, and the husband was injured at all, so the two had to live in seclusion and no longer participate in the disputes in the rivers and lakes.
The woodcutter died when the child was ten years old, leaving only his wife to take care of the two children, cultivating a few acres of land, and teaching the two children to practice martial arts, but the boy's foundation for chasing the wind was very poor, and it was not as good as chasing the clouds at home.
Swordsmanship and knife technique, if it weren't for Chasing Cloud forcing Chasing Wind to practice with her, he wouldn't even be able to remember the moves.
When Chasing Yun was fourteen years old, her mother told her about her life experience, and gave her the hairpin and her childhood clothes, and Chasing Cloud did not blink and threw the hairpin to Chasing Feng, telling him to change a bottle of wine.
The family never mentioned it again.
Before my mother died, there was only one thought.
Chasing Yun knew what his mother thought, and Chasing Wind put on a fiery red wedding dress, bid farewell to his mother in front of his mother's bed, and made a heavy oath to his mother that he would protect Chasing Wind and be safe in this life, and would not let any enemy hurt him.
The two of them sent their mother away in this way, and also left the mountain, wanting to go to Liangzhou City, the most prosperous city in Donghu.
