Chapter 3 Tears and Hope for the Return of Children
Now that she has borrowed the corpse to resurrect her soul, she also feels very mysterious and ethereal, such a ridiculous thing happened to her.
This body is very weak, and before he has taken two steps, the sweat seems to be raining down, and he keeps flowing.
Outside the window, the shouting of the merchant and the sound of the pedestrian haggling as he bought the goods.
I remembered the incomparably real dream just now, and closed my eyes and thought about it.
The moment she opened her eyes, she appeared again in the thatched hut, supporting her weak body, sitting on the chaise longue, looking at these crochet products that were too familiar to be familiar.
She smiled bitterly, it's really tailor-made! If she is still alive, I am afraid that she will be accompanied by these perennial companions, using these stitches and threads of crochet to support her family.
It's just that this weak body makes her tired from breathing, and she doesn't know if she can survive again.
Slowly got up, walked out of the hut, and returned to the stool just now in the blink of an eye.
wiped a handful of sweat, and his stomach began to make a fuss, and his eyes were staring at the wooden door, why didn't Xiao Er, this girl, come back.
Xiao Er, who changed her name, took the magnolia hairpin and left the inn.
I don't know how long I found a silverware pawnshop, and when the pawnshop owner saw that she was covered in dirty blood, he decided that she was a thief and wanted to send her to the official yamen.
Xiao Er knelt down and said the reason, and the boss stopped thinking about it, and he also took pity on the master and servant.
I took the magnolia hairpin and looked at it carefully, the texture was round and delicate, and it was a rare good jade, and I gave this girl two taels of silver and two pieces of money.
Xiao Er thanked him again, took the silver taels, and found the same way back to the inn.
The pawnshop owner shook his head and sighed, what a hard-working master and servant!
Half an hour later, Xiao Er hurriedly came back with Yinliang, said hello to the little two and went upstairs.
Pushed open the door of the guest room, saw that the young lady was still sitting at the table of the eight immortals, and hurriedly bowed, and said, "Miss, the hairpin got two taels of silver and two pieces of money." ”
As he spoke, he handed the rose-red purse embroidered with cherry blossoms to Gu Ling.
When Gu Ling saw Xiao Er coming back, she was full of joy and let her take all the silver taels with her for easy purchasing.
"Xiao'er, you go to the cloth village to buy some muslin cloth, buy six horses of different colors, buy some scissors and needles and threads, a dagger, buy more cotton, and bring the cherry blossom hairpin when you come back, and ask the shopkeeper for a separate courtyard."
After saying this, Gu Ling's mouth was dry, and he hurriedly called Xiao Er to get busy.
"Yes, miss."
Xiao Er didn't understand what the young lady wanted to do, so she hurriedly went downstairs and told the shopkeeper.
"There happens to be a single courtyard," the shopkeeper greeted Xiao Er, asked him to take the guest officer to live in the single courtyard first, and returned the hairpin to Xiao Er, saying: "Such valuable jewelry, don't use it as a mortgage anymore, you can't find it if you drop it." ”
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
Xiao Er went upstairs and said to Gu Ling to understand, then helped her downstairs, and slowly came to the single courtyard, Xiao Er helped Gu Ling onto the kang and covered the quilt.
Turned around and went to the inn kitchen, took some white porridge and side dishes, brought them to the guest room of the independent courtyard, and put them on the table next to Gu Ling's bedside.
Then he gave another gift, and then went out of the courtyard, and went straight to the street to find the cloth village, and purchased the items that the lady needed.
Gu Ling saw that this girl was in a hurry, and her order could make her do her duty so much. How virtuous can she! She can bear that these are the original owners from this body!
While drinking porridge, I looked at the new guest room, the bamboo hanging fan on the wall, and the flower screen next to the kang bed, and the other objects were the same as the upstairs guest room.
After eating the white porridge and the pickles, he closed his eyes and recuperated. This body is not an ordinary void, and it can sweat like rain after eating a meal, I really don't know how the Wu family could have such a vicious hand! This is to give her daughter a highly poisonous food, and after she died, she took over this body, since she ate it is highly poisonous, I am afraid that her internal organs have been damaged, and she can live for a few days if she comes back again?
sighed, hoping that Xiao Er's girl would buy those materials, make a doll and sell it as soon as possible, and then buy some tonic medicine to take care of this body.
She hasn't seen the world yet! Since you're here, let's take a few more looks before leaving!
Xiao Er came to Anyang City for the first time, and she was almost unfamiliar with this place, and she still asked many people to find the pawnshop.
After asking a lot of people, I found a cloth village in this huge Anyang City.
Entering the cloth village, the little guy saw that she was dirty, so he didn't come forward to ask, but the old shopkeeper who was old enough to introduce the fabric to Xiao Er on crutches.
"What kind of fabric do you need, and if it's your first time, you'll be given needles and scissors."
Looking at the old man's smiling face, Xiao Er told the old man what he needed.
"There is a horse of muslin cloth, and there is also cotton, but the girl wants to make a quilt or a dress? Medium or Top? The old man pointed to the place where the muslin was placed, looked at the girl in front of him, and said with a smile.
"Medium is good!"
"Okay."
The old man ordered the proud little servant to take six horses of different colors of cloth that the girl needed, along with the needle and thread scissors, and twenty pounds of medium cotton.
The little guy pouted, but he still obediently obeyed the order and brought those objects.
The old man saw that this girl was small, and ordered the little girl to send it for her.
Xiao Er paid the money, told the little guy his address, and then bought a dagger at the ironware shop near Buzhuang, and came to the Tongfu Inn with the little guy.
When Xiao Er saw Xiao Er coming back, he also took these objects back to the courtyard.
"Miss." Xiao Er panted, looked at Gu Ling on the kang with his eyes closed, and called softly, "I bought what you need." ”
"Bring it to me and take a look," Gu Ling said weakly, asked Xiao Er to bring the cloth, opened it, and glanced up at Xiao Er, "Go eat something and come back later." ”
"Yes."
Xiao Er went out with the leftovers that Miss had eaten, and closed the door by the way, Gu Ling looked at the colorful cloth on the kang, took the scissors that Xiao Er put on the table, cut the rose-red cotton cloth into strips of cloth five millimeters wide, cut several strips in a row, connected the two ends, and looked at the joints that were not very obvious.
Set aside, pick up the dagger, and slowly sharpen the chopsticks that had just been hidden.
Xiao Er gently pushed the door open, and then closed it again. When I came to the screen, I saw the cotton cloth cut into long strips, and I saw the young lady sweating, and she was sharpening the chopsticks with a dagger in her hand.
I didn't know why, so I asked in a daze, "Miss, what is this going to do?" ”
"I'll make some small things to play with," Gu Ling raised his eyes to look at Xiao Er, and said with a smile, "You see which color you like, pick it out to make a dress." ”
"Thank you, Miss," Xiao Er smiled, immediately picked out the blue cotton cloth, looked at Miss's dress, and said: "Miss usually likes plain colors, so the slave maid will use this pink and white to make a dress for Miss!" ”
"Okay." Gu Ling smiled, this girl knows what the original owner likes, so according to the current situation, she can only act according to the original owner's preferences.
After the two of them sent the Guling master and servant to the hospital, they left Anyang City and went to Andingfu City.
When night fell, before I arrived at the mansion, I saw a woman in plain clothes standing outside the door from a distance, smiling and talking to a group of girls behind her.
As soon as Yi Yi got off the carriage, he was pulled over by this plain woman, looked up and down, and looked at the child who had been away from home for many years, growing taller and more handsome, but too thin, and the eyebrows and eyes were very similar to the old man, looking at it, tears flowed down, I haven't seen it for many years, but it has changed, from the immature little hairy child to the current coldness, and said with tears: "It's good to be back!" It's good to be back. ”
"I've seen my mother." Yi Yi bowed down and remembered that he had exchanged letters with his mother all these years to know whether his mother's safety and health were in danger.
"Hurry up," Li picked up his son, and went straight back to the house in the way that the girls and mothers-in-law had gotten out.
Gu Feng asked the uncle who was the gatekeeper to take the carriage over, and he took the child's bags into the house.
Along the way, Li and Yi talked about the income of the shops in the family in recent years, although the price of the family is fair, and the fabric is also good. But in the past year, I don't know what happened, resulting in the accumulation of fabrics and the delay in selling.
When Yi Yi came back this time, he didn't go back to the battlefield, and when he heard his mother report his worries, he had to persuade him: "Mother don't worry, these children will deal with it clearly." ”
Li no longer talked about those shopping mall trivialities, and asked how he was doing outside and how he ate and wore for so many years.
Yi Yi has been fighting against the Narong people all the year round, and he has not smiled all the year round, and when he saw his mother, he never smiled, so he had to say lightly: "Mother, I have to hurry tomorrow, so I will go back to the other courtyard first." ”
After speaking, Yi Yi walked towards the courtyard of Na Tinghao.
"I'm going to go again!" Li's lonely eyes looked at the disappearing figure.
"I've seen Madame." Gu Feng, who rushed over, saluted the Li family, and said, "The son has something to do, please don't stop the lady." ”
"Don't worry! I don't stop him, I just want to talk to him more. Li wiped the corners of his eyes with the handkerchief in his hand, and said with a smile: "When will you come back this time?" ”
"I don't know."
"Then, go and send hot water to the eldest young master to wash up, and come to the hall for dinner later." Li said to the girls, and looked in the direction of Tinghao's courtyard again.
She shouldn't have seen the child talk about the shop as soon as he came back, she just wanted to know if he had lived well in the wilderness all these years, how he had eaten, and how he had dressed.
Alas!
Li sighed, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and went to the kitchen to bring the lotus seed soup that he personally made for Yi'er, his favorite lotus seed soup when he was a child, and he didn't know how the times changed, does Yi'er still love to eat this lotus seed soup?
