350, meet
Coming out of the Ji Palace, Xu Shu did not go back to Jingyuan directly, but asked the coachman to drive directly to Sun's house, found the back door of Xiangzhu Courtyard, Tread Snow knocked on the door, and the maid who opened the door saw that Tread Snow hurriedly welcomed in, "The Snow Treading girl hasn't been here for a long time, why is she free to come over today?" "The last time I came to Taxue, I wanted to find Xu Jing to rescue Fu Liu, but when I saw that Xu Jing was sick, I couldn't open that mouth.
Before Taxue could speak, the maid saw Xu Shu behind Taxue in a blink of an eye, and screamed, "There is a ghost!" As soon as the eyeballs rolled down, the snow hurriedly supported her, pinched the middle of the person, the maid woke up slowly, and hurriedly pushed away the snow and ran to the yard, and the snow and Xu Shu hurriedly followed, and the maid ran faster.
Xu Jing heard the strange screams of the maids outside, and said curiously, "Didn't you say that someone came?" Is it called anything? As he spoke, he walked out, and when he walked to the porch, he saw the maid stumbling in, and hurriedly grabbed him, "What's the matter?" Who's coming? ”
The maidservant girl turned pale and pointed to Xu Shu who was following her, "There are ghosts, grandma, there are ghosts!" ”
Xu Jing glared at the maidservant, "What nonsense are you talking about for most of the day!" Although he said this, he still looked in the direction pointed by the maidservant, and the whole person froze instantly.
"I'm not dreaming, why did I see Xiao Jiu!"
Hearing Xu Jing say this, the maid's face turned pale with fright, her legs were weak, and she ran into the house with a roll.
"How is that possible? How did Xiao Jiu end up here? My Little Nine ...... Xiao Jiu was killed and can never come back...... I must have been dreaming! Xu Jing rubbed her eyes, looked over again, and still saw Xu Shu, Xu Shu, who was getting closer and closer, her eyes suddenly blurred, and Xu Shu's figure was also blurred, Xu Jing hurriedly wiped her tears, and when she wanted to see it more clearly, Xu Shu was already in front of her.
Xu Shu hugged Xu Jing, buried her head in Xu Jing's neck, and said in a low voice, "This is not a dream, eldest sister, I'm back!" ”
Xu Jing froze for a moment, and suddenly hugged Xu Shu tightly, Xu Shu was about to lose her breath, tears fell down in big drops, fell on Xu Shu's green silk, and soon soaked into her hair.
"Xiao Jiu is back...... Xiao Jiu is back......"
"Well, I'm back!" Xu Shu patted Xu Jing's back, wanting to soothe her restrained emotions.
Xu Jing was finally reluctant to let go of Xu Shu, but she grabbed her hand and refused to let go, for fear that Xu Shu would disappear as soon as she let go.
Seeing this situation through the crack in the door, the maid seemed to realize something, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Grandma, Miss Nine, sit in the house, it's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Let's go inside and talk! It's cold outside, you're too weak to blow the wind! Xu Jing took Xu Shu's hand tightly and went to the inner room to speak.
The room was quiet, and the voices of a pair of nephews and nieces were not heard, Xu Shu asked, "Why don't you see Zhan'er and Ah Qi?" ”
Speaking of a pair of children, Xu Jing showed a smile on her face, "Zhan'er goes to school, goes out early and returns late, I rarely see him as a mother, Ah Qi went to my uncle's house today, and he will come back at night!" ”
"I brought them something, big sister go back and give them back!"
Seeing that Taxue handed over the gift box, Xu Jing sighed, "You are only back now, everything is waiting to be happy, you have to spend money everywhere, where can you get so much money, what are you doing with these false gifts!" ”
Xu Shu said with a smile, "Eldest sister, just accept it for Zhan'er and Ah Qi, it's not for you, what are you anxious about!" ”
Xu Jing shook her head and smiled, she couldn't say anything, so she had to let people take the things down, and persuaded her bitterly, "When you left Beijing, you scattered all the money, fortunately I left some for you here, and you can bring it back when you go back, and the fourth sister wrote a letter back, and she didn't ask for any of the things you gave her, saying that she would bring it to you next time she returned to Beijing, she was far away from the capital, I'm afraid I don't know your news yet!" ”
When Xu Shu left Beijing, she divided the finances she had accumulated over the years into three parts, one was left to her maids, one was given to Xu Jing, and the other was given to Xu Ru.
With Xu Ru's temperament, Xu Shu expected this to be the result, and she didn't feel much surprised, but there was absolutely no reason to come back to the things she sent out, no matter who she gave them to, she had no intention of coming back, "Just keep those things for Zan Er and Ah Qi, eldest sister, you also know in your heart, the Sun family can't count on it, in the future, Zan Er will marry a daughter-in-law, Ah Qi will marry, which one doesn't cost money?" With your dowry, eldest sister, how can you afford this family? ”
Xu Shu is right, the Xu family is not a rich and noble family, Xu Jing's status in the Xu family was not high when Xu Jing got married, Xu Jing's dowry is very limited, and now the expenses for maintaining the entire Xiangzhu Courtyard are quite rich, but since Xu Jing has completely broken with the Sun family, then in the future, Sun Zan will definitely have to buy another house, and there is a dowry, only these two things will make Xu Jing difficult, and not to mention Sun Qi's dowry.
"However, these are your things, I can't ask for you, and I didn't want your hard work to be wasted in the first place! Now that you're back, I'm going to give it back to you! Xu Jing insisted on not accepting it.
Xu Shu said again, "These things outside my body are of little use to me, besides, I am for Zhan'er and Ah Qi, I will not have a gift for them to get married in the future, and the eldest sister is only keeping it for them now!" ”
"I ......" Xu Jing wanted to say more, Xu Shu said again, "Eldest sister, don't worry, I won't be short of silver, you and my sisters, if I really lack silver, don't wait for you to speak, I will take the initiative to ask you, since I arrange it like this, I must have my reason, this matter is so good?" ”
"It's up to you!" Xu Shu talked about this, Xu Jing finally stopped mentioning it, but said, "What's going on?" I just saw you back, and I was so happy that I didn't know what to say, and my mind was messed up, so I didn't even think to ask you what was going on? Why does the palace say that he is sick and dead? Where have you been in the past six months? ”
Xu Shu said yesterday's set of rhetoric about the wind and treading the snow, but he skipped Zhuang Li, and only said that their master and servant came back slowly all the way.
Xu Jing was very sad and indignant when she heard this, Xu Shu couldn't help but feel relieved again, and after Xu Jing's mood stabilized, Xu Shu said again, "I came today because I want to ask my eldest sister for help!" ”
"Just say it!" When Xu Shu asked her again, Xu Jing agreed without hesitation.
Xu Shu took a square cloth bag wrapped in plain cotton cloth from Bang Feng's hand, "This is the scripture I copied, the eldest sister helped me send it to the master in Hanxi Temple, now I am unable to move and can't visit the master, and I ask the eldest sister to apologize to the master on my behalf!" ”
"Good! I'll go tomorrow! Xu Jing nodded in response, and after listening to Xu Shu's arrangement, she also understood that Xu Shu only told the news that she was still alive to those close to her.
"I have one more thing to tell my eldest sister!" Xu Shu leaned over and whispered a few words, Xu Jing's pupils shrank, and she nodded.
