Date: 212-12-18
Li Danruo resigned Mrs. Cheng and came out, turned the stairs down to the lobby, stood and thought about it, the third master, they ...... I'm afraid that Jiang Yan will come over with the coffin tomorrow, and the eldest master and the eighth master will set off in two ways, and the eldest lady will also follow, and this place is full of female dependents...... These things have to be discussed with Jiang Yanming. \[\]
The second wife looks like something is wrong, and she has to ask a doctor to come and see, this group of women and children, whether they want to go to Jiangning or take a boat lunch, they have to hurry up and let people go to find the big boat, and the mother still goes over to the past, and tells her in person, and there is something to do with the silver...... You can't rush to the road, just stay here for a few days, and wait until things are clear before you set off.
Li Danruo made up his mind, called Yao Huang and others in, and sent messengers one by one, the next day at dawn, everyone went to be busy, Li Danruo sent Doulu to wait beside Mrs. Cheng, Lu Cao followed Grandma Wu San to take care of Brother Xian and Sister Rui, Huyue followed Zhao Da/Grandma to take care of Sister Ye, Li Danruo resigned from Mrs. Cheng, and brought Fat Hong and others to prepare to rush back to the capital.
Turning into the backyard of the inn, Second Grandma Su hugged Brother Cai'er, followed by Li Danruo into the backyard of the inn, Li Danruo looked at her in surprise, Second Grandma Su subconsciously looked back, trying to be generous, but said very unnaturally: "You take me to the capital, I want to go back to my mother's house to see." ”
Li Danruo looked at Su Er's grandmother clearly, hesitated, and persuaded in a low voice: "Second sister-in-law, it's better to go back after a while, I just left the city yesterday, Su Fu is only afraid of being embarrassed, and then ......."
"What's so hard about it? What's so hard about it? Second Grandma Su hugged Brother Cai tightly, nervous, and shouted with her eyes pricked up: "How much did you help them in previous years?" Begging me to go back all day long, I have something to do, why can she be difficult? What's so embarrassing about her? Li Danruo was told by her to take half a step back, sighed secretly and nodded: "Okay, the second sister-in-law has made up her mind, let's go." ”
Li Danruo simply made Su Er's grandmother unexpectedly stunned, and hurriedly rushed over to put Brother Cai on the car, and he was also busy climbing into the car, Li Danruo thought about it, and let people find the car again, and the two cars went out of the inn one after the other and rushed back to the capital.
Entering the inner city gate, Li Danruo looked at Su Er's grandmother and said: "This car will be used by the second sister-in-law, I will ask Liu Qingjia to send the second sister-in-law over, and then come back after watching the second sister-in-law enter the Su Mansion, if the second sister-in-law has anything to do, she will send someone to Pingshun Street to leave a message." ”
"Well," Second Grandma Su twisted her head and agreed speciously, Li Danruo didn't pay much attention to her, put on a hat and jumped out of the car, explained a few words to Liu Qing's family in a low voice, and got into the car behind.
Li Danruo got out of the car, Second Grandma Su breathed a long sigh of relief, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, hugged Brother Cai and whispered: "Let's go back to your grandfather's house, grandparents like our brother Cai'er." Brother Cai'er looked up at her mother in shock, and Second Grandma Su kissed her son distressedly: "Don't be afraid, just go to your grandfather's house, let's go back when your father comes back, and let grandma make some crispy snails for Brother Cai to eat later, okay?" ”
Su Er's grandmother hugged her son and talked, not long after, the car arrived in front of the Su Mansion, Su Er Grandma lifted the curtain and looked at the gate of the Fuli Su Mansion, breathed a long sigh of relief, a smile appeared on her face, the car went forward again, and was about to turn into the second gate, but was stopped, Su Er Grandma hurriedly lifted the curtain and smiled: "Don't hurry up and open the door, it's me!"
The housekeeper at the door took two or three steps back, looked at Su Er's grandmother vigilantly and shouted, "Wait, I'll go back to our wife." As he spoke, he turned around and instructed a few janitors: "Look, no one can come in without my wife's orders!" Several mothers-in-law hurriedly agreed, and Su Er's grandmother looked at the housekeeper in a daze, in the past, she hated to kneel down and give her a step, what kind of guest did she bump into today?
Before Second Grandma Su came to her senses, the housekeeper had already rushed out, stepped forward and pushed the car and scolded: "Hurry up, hurry up!"
"Bastard thing!" Second Grandma Su was angry and anxious, put down her brother, lifted the curtain and jumped out of the car, raised her hand to hit the housekeeper's mother-in-law in the face, the housekeeper quickly flashed back, took two steps back, squinted at Su Ergrandma and smiled: "Our wife said, I only heard that our aunt and grandmother were driven out of the capital by the official family, and my aunt and grandmother are naturally abiding by the king's law, how dare they enter the city again?" If anyone dares to pretend, just report to the official!"
"You! Tell your wives to come out! I asked her to her face!" Second Grandma Su's face was white and there was no trace of blood, she pointed at the housekeeper and screamed, the housekeeper dusted off her clothes, looked at Second Grandma Su raised a few eyebrows and smiled: "Our wife can be called if you say it?" Go to the yamen of the capital and say it, someone is pretending to be a prisoner!" A few mothers-in-law next to her agreed, watching the excitement with their sleeves, Su Er's grandmother took half a step back, leaning on the car, trembling and almost unable to stand.
Liu Qingjia sighed, stepped forward to help Su Ergrandma and whispered, "Second grandma get in the car, let's go back." Second Grandma Su shook her off vigorously: "Don't worry about it!" Liu Qingjia laughed softly, took half a step back and said: "Our grandmother has instructed, if the second grandmother thinks we are troublesome, let me not have much trouble, hurry back, our grandmother still has a lot of things to do, second grandmother, there is still a talented brother in the car, do you take it down, or will I take it back and hand it over to the old lady?" ”
Second Grandma Su looked at Liu Qingjia in disbelief, but Liu Qingjia ignored her, walked around her to the car, jumped up and sat down, turned her head to look at Second Grandma Su and said, "Second grandma hugs the child?" Su Ergrandma pulled the car stiffly, tears fell like melons, the car shook slightly, Su Ergrandma rushed to the car, climbed into the car with a rolling belt, hugged the frightened brother with a face, and was about to cry loudly, Liu Qingjia lifted the curtain and said: "This is the capital, if the second grandmother doesn't want to go to the prison of the Criminal Department again, it is better to save some trouble." ”
Second Grandma Su rushed to her throat and cried, she was frightened back, hugged Brother Cai tightly, retreated back to the carriage, and retreated again......
Li Danruo went back to the Li Mansion, came out and turned to the back corner gate of the Wei family, and talked to Lu Xinglin in a low voice for a while, and then turned back to Pingshun Street, just entered the courtyard gate, a mother-in-law came out of the gatehouse and saluted: "Fifth grandmother, I am waiting by the side of the second aunt and grandmother, surnamed Zhu." Li Danruo was stunned for a moment before she reacted, this is the second aunt of the Jiang family, Jiang Yanshu, waiting for her mother-in-law, and hurriedly politely said: "It's Mama Zhu, please speak inside." ”
"The fifth grandmother is polite, I don't know where the old lady is?"
"Outside the city, I'll rush back in a while, you can go over and have a look? Or are you ......"
"I'll go, I'll go, I'll go with the fifth grandmother." Mrs. Zhu hurriedly responded, Li Danruo nodded and responded: "Then grandma, sit and drink a cup of tea and wait, I still have a few things to be busy with, and when the busyness is over, let's go over together." ”
"Fifth grandma is polite, thank you fifth grandma." Mrs. Zhu thanked her respectfully, Li Danruo nodded, and went straight inside.
Not long after, Jiang Yanming hurried back, Li Danruo hurriedly greeted him, Jiang Yanming was dressed in cotton plain clothes, his face was blue and gray, his cheeks were collapsed, his eyes were bloodshot, he looked at Li Danruo and nodded, the two entered the house, Jiang Yanming drank three or four cups of tea in a row, even exhaled a long breath, looked at Li Danruo and said in a low voice: "It's all gone, the eldest brother and the fourth brother are in different places, they can't just ...... After looking for many people who refused, I finally found the executioner in the government office, and finally ...... All right. ”
"Coffin, where is it?" Li Danruo was silent for a long time before asking in a low voice,
"I didn't dare to stay in the city, now I send it to the North Potai Temple."
"Is there a letter on the side of the eldest uncle and Hachiro?"
"Well, the eldest uncle, they are assigned to serve in the Yongzhou army, Hachiro, go to Xiongnan." Jiang Yanming paused: "Uncle matter, thanks to Lu Langzhong, it is really a great luck in misfortune, the eldest uncle, but it is hard along the way, and it will be no obstacle when I arrive in Yongzhou, it is Balang, just now I went to find the third son of the Hou family of Annan, his ancestral home is Annan, and Xiongnan are all the same, and now Annan also has a few family members, and there are many business contacts, the third son is a righteous man, and promised to find me a few safe family members who often go to Annan, and send Balang all the way over, so I can only do this first." ”
"This is already a great luck, the wife and the others are all good, that is, the eldest uncle, saying that they want to go to Yongzhou with the eldest uncle."
"Well," Jiang Yanming was silent for a moment, sighed and said: "It's okay to go, there is the eldest aunt to take care of all the way, Liulang and they can also be better, the eldest uncle, they will leave early tomorrow morning, I will stay in the city tonight, and you will let the eldest aunt wait outside the gate of Weizhou tomorrow." ”
The two discussed carefully for a while, prepared the silver tickets and other things, Li Danruo looked very haggard Jiang Yanming, hesitated, and said in a low voice: "You can rest for an hour and then go, don't get tired." ”
Jiang Yanming was stunned, glanced at Li Danruo, but lowered his gaze again, and said in a gentle whisper: "I'm fine, it's hard for you for a while, you take care of yourself." Jiang Yanming was silent for a moment, looked up at Li Danruo, wanted to say a few more words, but didn't know what to say, she was still the same as when she was a child, smiling and watching him write, but talking like an adult: "...... Take a break, look, your arms are red, your aunt will feel distressed when she sees it......"
"Once, you also asked me to take a break, saying that my arms were red when I rested my arms." Jiang Yanming said in a low voice, Li Danruo looked at him blankly, Jiang Yanming blushed inexplicably and explained: "Once upon a time, when I first returned to the capital, your mother took you to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion......"
"Oh, it was all those years ago, I don't remember." Li Danruo thought about it and smiled with a hint of apology, Jiang Yanming hurriedly explained: "I also just remembered it, from the past...... You just said that you want to take the waterway, then I will go to the East Water Gate, there are many boats there, you have to find a safe one, you rest, I will go and see. Jiang Yanming said, hung his head and got off the kang, and without waiting for Li Danruo to speak, he grabbed his cloak and went out.
