When Jiang Jiayue returned home, Ruoxiang was already busy making lunch in the kitchen, and she hurriedly stepped forward to help, but Ruoxiang was about to be kicked out.

"Don't stay here in the smoke, go see your father and brother!"

"Mother." Jiang Jiayue didn't move there, took a handful of firewood in her hand and put it into the stove, looked at the fire that was clearly extinguished, lowered her head and asked, "My daughter is a peasant girl, why can't she do this?" The two girls in the village, Hongmei, they all did it. ”

"You ......"

Wakaka was a little speechless for a while.

Since she was a child, in addition to letting Jiang Jiayue do embroidery work with her to earn money to support her family, she rarely let her daughter touch these rough jobs outside the home.

"What the leper monk said, are you still serious?"

Jiang Jiayue raised her head and looked at Ruoxiang steadily, "My daughter never thought about the glory and wealth of those Lao Shizi, and my daughter believes that my mother must not have thought about that." ”

When she was four years old, a sloppy monk with a leprosy head came to the village, and when she saw Ruoxiang's appearance, she wouldn't leave, and she didn't point to Jiang Jiayue and say that she would be rich and wealthy in the future, and was finally beaten out by her father Jiang Dalang with a broom.

Ruoxiang has a good color, although Jiang Dalang is taciturn, his facial features are upright and straight, and even a pair of children with the two of them are peeing and carved jade, which is indescribably clever and cute. When the people in the village see it, they always like to pinch the faces of the sisters and brothers, and when they are close to them, they always come together to take a sip.

As Jiang Jiayue gets older, her facial features have also grown, her eyebrows are not painted but daisy, her lips are red without dotting, especially the good skin of her body, porcelain white and delicate, smooth and soft, even if she braves the scorching heat to go to the field to deliver food to Jiang Dalang, she will not see any blackness.

The son of Zhang Xiucai's family in the village once saw Jiang Jiayue in the village, and since then he has been fascinated, and always pesters Xiucai's wife to go to Jiang's house to propose marriage.

didn't think about it, but it fell to the point of being divorced......

The old people in Xiaochun Village mentioned the crazy words of the monk back then, and they all said that she was going to enter a big family to be a grandmother.

But Ruoxiang always has to take a sip when she listens to it.

"Phew, whoever wants to be the grandmother of a big family should do it, and don't pull my family Yue'er!"

She came out of Jiangling Lu Mansion at the beginning, and naturally knew that with her family background, her daughter could only go to those big families to be aunts and grandmothers, which was not very good, not a good word.

Therefore, Jiang Jiayue couldn't understand why her mother always kept her as half a young lady?

When Ruoxiang heard this, she didn't say anything to let her out, sighed, and said lovingly: "When did my mother have those thoughts?" ”

"Why is that?"

"Yue'er, you are old now, and you can afford half of the family business, and my mother will tell you some things!"

It turns out that Ruoxiang's maiden Wang family was also a big surname, and his descendants built the Ling Wang family, which was a famous family that had three Hanlin and ancestral officials.

Jiang Jiayue's maternal ancestor, that is, the old man Wang who sold Ruoxiang to Lu Mansion, is just a side branch of the Jianling Wang family, reliable to his family, and also saved a few family assets, and came to Jianghe County, which is under the jurisdiction of Jiangling Mansion, to buy a house and buy land.

It's just that I had no choice but to encounter the famine that year, and there was a war, and the whole Dazhao was in chaos, not to mention a small Jianghe County? There is no armor left where the hooligans and bandits passed, and it is not easy for the old man Wang to take his family to Jiangling Mansion to hide, and he has already scattered his family wealth, so he really has no choice, so he has to sell his daughter and become a living deed, hoping that he can find it in the future.

For decades, she even blurred the appearance of her parents and relatives, and she earned her money to marry an honest farmer.

How Jiang Jiayue is also half a daughter of the Wang family, if she is fragrant and high, she is naturally bent on not letting her daughter smear the glory of the Wang family and go to make others small.

"Since I was a child, your grandfather taught me to read and learn calligraphy, and my mother entered the Lu family's study as an errand boy with this point, so that she could get out safely." Recalling the past, Ruoxiang had tears in her eyes and said: "Mother knows your mind, she has been very sensible since she was a child, do you want to go to the Lu family to be a girl for a few years, and get the money to treat your father's illness, and let Nanqiu enter the school?" ”

Jiang Jiayue was silent.

"What kind of philanthropists do you think those big families are? Mother told you the truth today, you must not go with your appearance! Even if your mother smashes the pot and sells iron, she takes your father out to beg for food, and she can't push you into the fire pit! I'll go to Zhang's house tomorrow and let the chief judge evaluate it, I won't ask Xiucai to withdraw from your marriage like this! ”

Wakaka's voice became louder, and she said categorically.

The kitchen was silent for a moment, except for the crackling of firewood and the smell of rice wafting out.

The Jiang family hasn't eaten proper rice for a long time, and this is still a little bit sent by Mrs. Li today.

Ruoxiang was in the house back then, and she could be regarded as helping Mrs. Li, so she became close.

"What about my brother? He was still young, so my mother couldn't bear to watch my brother beg for food with us? After a long time, Jiang Jiayue asked in a low voice.

Ruoxiang was really stunned, and stared blankly at the dilapidated pot lid.

"It's all fate." She muttered.

In this life, no matter how high her heart is, she can't earn the fate set by God, and neither can her children earn it......

"But my daughter doesn't believe in fate! My mother could not be confused by the glory of the Lu family back then, and she could come out to marry innocently, why can't her daughter? Even if she has to endure some hardships, her daughter is not afraid! After Jiang Jiayue finished speaking, there was an amazing light in her clear and bright eyes.

"My son is not afraid!"

Ruoxiang was about to say more, when suddenly a slightly immature voice sounded at the door.

The mother and daughter looked together, and saw a boy about eleven or twelve years old standing there, looking seven or eight points similar to Jiang Jiayue, with red lips and white teeth, and beautiful eyebrows, but his facial features were a little more heroic, and he was looking at them with burning eyes.

The perseverance and stubbornness on the little face are the same as Jiang Jiayue.

Jiang Nanqiu clenched his fists and said loudly: "It's okay if my son doesn't study, so many people in the village can't read, don't they live well?" It's just that my mother is right, the eldest sister must not be a maid for others, and I can also follow my mother to work in the fields. ”

"You're still ......"

"Big sister is trying to say I'm still young? But when the eldest sister was so old, she had already helped her mother do embroidery, and my father said that as long as the family worked together, no matter how hard the days were, they could always pass! Jiang Nanqiu interrupted her words, said righteously, and asked Ruoxiang at the end, "Mother, am I right?" ”

"Qiu'er is right." Wakaka looked at her youngest son with relief.

Jiang Jiayue was completely silent.
