Chapter 82: A Chance Encounter with a Relative
The more Ye Ziyi spoke, the more excited she became, she rubbed her hands, as if she saw the mountains of gold and silver, which provoked Yong to laugh out loud.
"Brother Yong, don't laugh, really!" Ye Ziyi's two dark eyes blinked, and she said with her hands behind her back. "Now, I just have to think of a way to resolve this Tianshi matter, and even Ah Cheng's difficulties have been solved, do you believe it or not?"
"These are all things you think nonsense, how can you count?" Yong glanced at Ye Ziyi, and turned his face away with a look of disbelief.
"Tsk, you underestimate me, wait, I will definitely do a good job, Chen Guo has just been in turmoil, I still have time, when the matter of Tianshi is solved, I will do something big for you to see!" "Let's go, go to Uncle Zhong's. ”
Looking at Ye Ziyi, whose eyes were shining, Yong didn't answer, he picked up the bronze sword and put it on his back, and walked out of the house with Ye Ziyi.
It was noon, there were not many people in the teahouse, and when she came out of the elegant room on the second floor, Ye Ziyi walked slowly, thinking while walking, and just turned to the stairs, she almost collided with a person who went upstairs.
Seeing that Ye Ziyi and the person who came upstairs were about to collide, he was quick to take Ye Ziyi's arm and brought her to his side, glaring at her unhappily.
Ye Ziyi looked up at Yong in a bit of confusion, blinked, and looked at the man standing at the staircase.
This person is slender, with cloth clothes and hair, a pair of narrow and bright eyes, and a long sword wrapped in old cloth on his body, standing on the side of the stairs looking at Ye Ziyi, who is wearing men's clothes, and suddenly smiles. "How does Ji dress up as a man?"
"Is it you?" Ye Ziyi saw the person clearly, and was a little surprised, the person in front of her was the young man surnamed Qu who played the piano to her in Gongzi's Mansion that day to show her love, and this kind of goodbye was really a bit dramatic.
"The last time we met was too hasty, I didn't report to my home, in the next Qu Heng, the word Zilan. Qu Heng clenched his fists and looked at Ye Ziyi with a smile, looking familiar.
"It turned out to be Mr. Qu, rude. Ye Ziyi didn't expect to see this person again, so she bent down very politely and said lightly. "The concubine has something important, so she won't gossip with her husband and leave. ”
"Wait," Qu Heng saw that Ye Ziyi was leaving, reached out and pulled her sleeve, followed Ye Ziyi's Yong took a step forward, raised his hand with a calm face to block Qu Heng's outstretched arm, Qu Heng looked at Yong with a fierce look in his eyes, smiled slightly, and withdrew his arm. "Ji and I met for the second time, and I haven't given Fang a name, dare to ask Ji Ke if he has a surname?
"I'm just a layman, and my cheap name will not dishonor the ears of Mr., and I will leave. Ye Ziyi was really not interested in this person, and her tone was more distant.
"You ......" Qu Heng had to say again, Ye Ziyi had already bowed down and went downstairs with Yong.
Looking at the slender figure walking slowly, Qu Heng couldn't help but move under his feet, and he wanted to chase after it.
"Zilan, are you quite fast, the family has retreated, come in quickly, we have been waiting for you for a long time!" You Zhan poked his head out of a private room and beckoned to Qu Heng with a smile on his face.
Qu Heng glanced at the empty staircase, shook his head with a smile, and turned around and walked towards You Zhan. "What kind of person can work for you to welcome everyone?"
"You must know this man, come with me. You Zhan said, stepped forward and pulled Qu Heng, and entered the elegant room with excitement on his face.
In the empty tea room downstairs, there were only a few guests, and there was a strong fragrance of tea in the cool air, Ye Ziyi walked down the stairs and was about to go out, but Yong was pulled aside.
"How did you know that person?"
"He?" Ye Ziyi raised her eyebrows and blinked. "I met once in the Childe's Mansion, I don't know each other, do you?"
"That's the best, Ah Ye, you need to remember that what you are doing now is an extraordinary business, you must take precautions, and don't let him know. Yong seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and told Ye Ziyi. "When you see this person in the future, don't pay attention to it. ”
"Good. Ye Ziyi nodded, puzzled. "Who the hell is he, and deserves to be treated like this?"
"You should have heard of this person, he is a native of Wangchuan in Wei State, and his father is General Wei Zhenguo, named Qu Wok, and your father was once a righteous brother. ”
"Qu Wok?" Ye Ziyi thought for a long time, and finally remembered that there is really such a person, a very patriotic veteran, it is said that the family style is very positive, and the requirements for children and grandchildren are also strict, his son, I heard that he is not a general, he is a ranger, and he is chivalrous and righteous everywhere, and he is also a little famous, such a person, it is best not to provoke, she really has to stay away, so he nodded and said. "I see. ”
"Auntie, that Qu Heng seems to be interested in you, you have to be more careful in your actions in the future. Yong patted Ye Ziyi's shoulder with some unease, and suddenly lowered his head and whispered in her ear. "Someone over there has been watching you, do you recognize?"
Ye Ziyi was stunned, and subconsciously looked sideways at the couch on the west side.
There were only two groups of tea guests on the west side, and the one who looked at her was an old man sitting at the door.
The man's gray hair, his face was full of vicissitudes, his chestnut face was full of wrinkles, and his yellow eyes looked straight at her, and when he looked at it, he actually shed two lines of turbid tears.
Ye Ziyi looked at this person inexplicably, and when he was wondering, the old man stood up, staggered a few steps forward with a little trembling, and he said in a dumb voice, "Ah?"
Ye Ziyi didn't respond, and looked at him for a long time before he said in confusion. "Seven...... Uncle Seven?"
"Ahh "Ah, we said you weren't there, I didn't expect you to be alive! I, I can finally explain to your father!"
"It's me, Uncle Seven, I'm not dead, I haven't seen you for a few years, how did you become like this?" Ye Ziyi's eyes were also a little moist, when she returned to her hometown in the past, only this seventh uncle was willing to say a few words for the two of them, but she didn't expect that when she saw him again, it would seem that he would be thirty years old in three years, and she couldn't recognize him for a while.
"Alas, it's hard to say, it's good that you're safe, it's good that you're safe!" Jing Qi said, and couldn't stop crying, wiping his tears while patting Ye Ziyi's shoulder, and he couldn't stop crying.
"Uncle Lao Qi remembered. Ye Ziyi also shed a few tears, grateful for his help, she pulled Jing Qi's old rough hand. "Uncle Seven, it's really cold here, let's go, let's go to a warm place and talk well. ”
"Good, good. Jing Qi nodded again and again, and followed Ye Ziyi out of the teahouse.
The three of them walked out of the gate of the teahouse, and Jing Qi led Ye Ziyi to a dilapidated ox cart in front of the carriage shed, and said with a smile. "I just came back from a trip to Xingcheng, I made some money, and it is a great joy to meet today, let's not go elsewhere, let's go!
Ye Ziyi nodded with a smile, glanced at the goods behind the ox cart, and asked Jing Qidao. "What business is Uncle Seventh doing, why did you come to Fengcheng?"
"This, I'll tell you in detail for a while, you wait, see your aunt first. Jing Qi said and shouted into the car. "Wen Niang, come out and meet Grandma quickly!"
As soon as Jing Qi's words fell, there was a rustling sound in the carriage, and after a while, the dilapidated curtain was lifted, and a woman wearing an old cotton robe came out of it, the woman got out of the car awkwardly, holding her towering belly, and bent down towards Ye Ziyi, low and authentic. "Wen Niang has seen my aunt. ”
"This is the concubine I bought in Xingcheng, and I took her over this time for the sake of Jing's incense. Speaking of this, Jing Qi's voice trembled, and he burst into tears again, crying. "Auntie, you don't know, your second uncle is dead, your third uncle and fourth uncle are gone, the Jing family, only we are left. ”
"What? they all ......" Ye Ziyi was a little surprised, although these relatives of the Jing family were quite non-things, but suddenly they almost died so suddenly, she was still a little uncomfortable listening to it.
Jing Qi sighed and said in a hoarse voice. "Alas, after you ran away three years ago, one day Gongzicheng suddenly sent someone to say that he wanted to accept you as a concubine, and he wanted to welcome us to Fengcheng for a gift and take the gift money. ”
"It's a heart disease, right?" Ye Ziyi's tone was a little light, and she really couldn't pretend to be sad.
"yes. Later, when we arrived in Fengcheng, Gongzi said that you ran away and couldn't get married, so they went to Gongzi to become a theory, and they didn't get any bargains, but let those house slaves beat up, and later, your two uncles took the gift money and returned to Wei in a bad mood, who would have thought of this, and contracted the epidemic halfway, and the two families were gone...... "Jing Qi cried and chattered, and heard Ye Ziyi sigh with emotion.
This is evil and evil retribution, originally they wanted to use her marriage with Gongzi to bargain for some cheapness, but they didn't want it to backfire, so they took their lives for this bit of greed, which can be regarded as God's fate.
"Why didn't Uncle Seven go back with those two uncles, why did he end up in Fengcheng?" Ye Ziyi suddenly remembered Jing Ying she met a few days ago, and said. "Are aunts and Ying Gu okay?"
"Don't mention those two! I don't want to go back to Wei, you don't know where you are, how can I leave with confidence? Although your father has never entrusted me with anything, but how are you my Jing family's descendant, how can I let you go alone? I have been doing business all these years while inquiring about your whereabouts, and the sky has eyes, and finally let me find you, Ah Yu......" Jing Qi said more and more sad, and couldn't stop crying.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, it's all happy things right now. Ye Ziyi saw that Jing Qi was crying uncomfortably, and her nose was sour, so she hurriedly changed the topic.
"Yes, yes, it's the seventh uncle who is confused, and he mentions these sad things. Jing Qi took out the cloth he was carrying, wiped his face, and nodded again and again.
"Fortunately, Uncle Seventh now has this little aunt, I hope to get a man in one fell swoop, and it is a happy event to be able to renew the incense for the Jing family. Ye Ziyi breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward to help Wen Niang, who was still bent down, and saw that she had no resentment, she was very honest, Ye Ziyi also had a smile on her face, and turned her head to Jing Qidao. "I think Uncle Seven's aunt is a little blessed, this baby is designated as a male baby. ”
