209 Father and daughter meet
Qin didn't expect that this question would really ask for a clue. (倩倩Chinese.)
Fangcao's mouth of the Jin family has been in decline for many years, the heirs are thin, living in the northwest corner away from the main house, and now it has been passed to the seventy-fourth generation only two young boys who are a few years old, their father is called Jin Shengyi, who was once a well-known elite disciple in the clan, originally had high hopes in the clan, but five years ago because of an accident in the test of the secret weapon, he died of serious injuries.
The reason why this little maid knows that the seventy-third generation of the Jin family's first house has the word "Sheng" in its name is because Jin Shengyi was once very famous in Ghost Santai, and the patriarch personally sent a message several times to let him live in the main house, but he refused on the grounds that he was greedy for tranquility and convenient to take care of the old and young.
Fangcao is the maid of the eldest lady of the fifth room of the Jin family, and the fifth room has an ordinary status in the family, all because the eldest lady has a good relationship with Jin Mingchun, a genius female disciple of the younger generation of the Jin family, and Jin Mingchun's aunt happens to be Jin Shengyi's wife, so this maid heard about these things.
Jin Shengchang and Jin Shengyi sound like brothers' names, but unfortunately Jin Shengyi is dead. Qin immediately asked the approximate location of Jin Shengyi's residence, and then planned to explore.
As for this herb, Qin sent her back to her own room to sleep, and then she would completely forget what had happened before.
According to the direction indicated by Fangcao, Qin quickly walked to the northwest corner of the valley, and the further she walked to the edge of the valley, the lower and narrower the house became, she asked a few people, and finally inquired about Jin Shengyi's residence.
The yard was quite good among the humble buildings nearby, and the small houses with white walls and gray tiles in the middle of the half-human high fence were not ornate and magnificent, but they looked quite clean and fresh.
Qin was thinking about whether to sneak in now, or wait until it got dark, when a child's laughter suddenly came from behind him: "Mother, mother, we are back!" β
Look back. It was two boys, one older and one young, less than ten years old, who were running in this direction. A woman in her thirties came out of the small house and beckoned to the two children, "Go wash your hands and wipe your face, and see how sweaty you are." β
Although this woman has a jingchai cloth skirt, her temperament does not look like she was born in a small family, and her demeanor has an elegant charm, and her appearance is beautiful and dignified, and the more she looks at it, the more she feels that she should not appear in such a poor and rough place.
As soon as the woman looked up and saw Qin standing outside the courtyard, she asked with some surprise, "Are you?" β
Qin Lu had already thought of a set of words: "I am the personal maid of the fifth lady. My eldest brother used to receive the favor of Young Master Shengchang, a while ago he went out with the old man to run errands and encountered an accident, before going to ask someone to bring a message, asking me to personally thank Master Shengchang for him. β
The servants in the ghost three platforms are all servants who have served the Jin family here for generations, and those who can follow the people of the Jin family out are the cronies of the cronies. The ghost Santai is almost isolated from the outside world, and no one in the valley will know what happened to this big brother made up by Qin, so as long as she doesn't break it too far, these people living on the periphery will not be able to confirm her lies.
The woman's face changed slightly when she heard her mention "Young Master Shengchang", and finally said calmly: "He was seriously injured, and he hasn't been better all these years. It's inconvenient to meet guests, you have a heart. I will tell you your brother's wishes, what is your brother's name? β
Her dad is really still there! Qin could barely control the expression on her face, and God knew how nervous she was when she waited for this woman to answer just now. How afraid that the other party will reply to her: "There is no such person." β
If her father was really seriously injured and never recovered, it would explain why he never tried to find their mother and daughter.
But how much was he injured? Qin tried hard to suppress his excitement, and said in a trembling voice: "I, I just need to go and kowtow to Young Master Shengchang for my brother, but he has a wish." Please Mrs. Fulfillment. β
The woman thought she was acting strangely, but it occurred to her that she might be remembering her brother who had died young. I was relieved.
She thought for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, you come with me, he can't be disturbed and stimulated, you have seen him but you want to go back." β
"Good!" Qin nodded vigorously.
The woman beckoned her into the courtyard, but instead of leading her into the house, she walked around the house to the back of the house.
There was also a small courtyard behind the house, and a man in his thirties and forties, dressed in a blue-gray cloth shirt, was sitting in a corner, holding a snowy knife, carving a piece of wood only the length of his palm, which seemed to be carving a human figure.
He sat upright, his hands were stable and powerful, how could he not look like he was seriously injured, Qin's heart was in turmoil, could it be that her father didn't live in this courtyard?
The woman brought her to the man and whispered; "He's the guy you're going to see, he's been so badly injured years ago, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone."
There was a deep sadness in her voice, but Qin didn't hear anything, she was completely stunned, and it took a while before she slowly walked a few steps, and Mu Ran slowly knelt down in front of the man.
The man seemed to sense someone approaching, and with a pause in his hand, he hurriedly took the wooden block he was carving into his arms, and unconsciously raised his head.
Qin finally saw his appearance clearly, if it weren't for those criss-crossing scars, he would have been a good-looking man, even if his appearance was ruined now, those autumn-like eyes were still exciting, but unfortunately such beautiful eyes were unfocused.
Can't see, can't hear, and forget all the past?
So also forgot her mother and her? Does he know that her mother has been martyred for him and that there are no bones left?
Qin felt a sense of grief and grievance in his heart, and unconsciously tears fell like rain, kneeling in front of Jin Shengchang and crying silently.
A white handkerchief suddenly appeared in front of her, and Qin looked up with blurry teary eyes, but it was the woman who brought her in who was looking at her with sympathy.
"Did you think of your brother?"
Qin nodded vigorously, took the handkerchief and wiped away the tears on his face, and when he saw the fat powder stains on the white handkerchief, he suddenly remembered the disguised dress on his face, and this cry was afraid that it would not be the same.
It would be a problem for her to show her feet now. The little reason she had left reminded her to leave as soon as possible before the woman noticed anything was wrong.
"IβI'm out of shape. Madam, I'll go back and wash the veil and return it to you, and I'm leaving! Qin hurriedly threw down a few words, turned around and covered his face with a handkerchief and walked away quickly.
I vaguely heard a low sigh from the woman behind her.
Qin found a secluded place to wash her face, Fangcao was not around, and she couldn't remember her appearance, so she simply stopped changing her appearance and waited for the night to turn back to the courtyard to take a look.
