After staying in Jiangnan for one night, meeting the people left by the Xie and Shen families, and discussing some things, Du Qifeng went out early on the second day.

According to my memory, I went to a century-old shop and bought Du Mingyue's favorite pastries before his death.

Go to the old house and dig out a few jars of good wine under the big tree, which was made by Shen Xingwan and Du Mingyue in the winter with the collected snow water.

The two personally dug a pit under the locust tree in the yard and buried it, and agreed to dig it out at the beginning of winter next year, enjoy the snow and drink wine with a mutton pot, and rest when they were drunk.

It's a pity that Mingyue didn't live until the winter of next year, and Shen Xingwan also went through the years and never returned.

After all, he dug up the bottles of wine.

Du Mingyue's coffin had long since left with Du's father and mother and was buried in a countryside with good feng shui.

In Jiangnan's grave, only the beautiful clothes she liked when she was alive were buried, and some gadgets.

Du Qifeng brought good wine and flowers and went to pay tribute to her alone.

The tomb was well tended by the old servants who were left behind, and Du Qifeng placed flowers and cakes in front of the tomb.

took out the plum blossom wine and poured a glass, and slowly sprinkled it on the ground, "This is what you brewed with Xingwan, and you left before you drank it, I brought it to you today." ”

Du Qifeng talked a lot, talking about the past, and his life in the past few years.

"Mingyue, you have to be good in the sky, bless your parents with good health, and bless Xingwan with all the best." Du Qifeng reluctantly stood up.

Just as he was about to turn to leave, he heard footsteps.

Du Qifeng touched the sword at his waist and turned back vigilantly.

A beautiful woman with a basket looked at him in disbelief.

"Is it Zhiwei?" The way of uncertainty about the style of chess.

Qi Zhiwei's eyes turned red suddenly, and he said excitedly, "Is it the brother of the Du family?" ”

The three little girls played well back then, and Qi Zhiwei was of course familiar with Du Qifeng.

"Are you really back?" Qi Zhiwei looked at him expectantly, "What about Xingwan, has Xingwan come back?" ”

Three people, Du Mingyue died in vain. Shen Xingwan left Jiangnan for Kyoto and never returned.

Leaving her alone and still staying in Jiangnan, many times looking at the spring in Jiangnan, when the little girls hold hands and giggle to step on the spring, they will always be in a trance.

After Qi Zhiwei finished worshipping, Du Qifeng said apologetically, "We should have eaten together, but I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm afraid I can't talk to you more." ”

Although Qi Zhiwei is married to a wife, she is not a woman who knows nothing about the situation in the world, knowing that the current form is dangerous, Du Qifeng suddenly appeared in Jiangnan, there must be something.

She smiled, "Go ahead, leave me alone." I have made good wine and buried it until you return safely. ”

"When the day of peace and prosperity, we will definitely return to Jiangnan." Du Qifeng promised.

"I, I'm waiting for you to come back." Qi Zhi's eyes were slightly red, "I will pray in front of the Buddha for Xingwan and you every day." ”

After a short meeting, Qi Zhiwei watched Du Qifeng's back and left in a hurry.

There are people who have the world in their hearts, and her heart is very small to pretend to be so many people.

Let her stay in Jiangnan and keep the memories of their youth.

——————————————

Banxia was not idle, especially returned to his hometown in Yangzhou.

I heard that Shen Tang had already come back with the Zhang family, and Shen Yu also came back later.

Shen Xingwan couldn't come back, Banxia was going to see their situation and go back to tell Shen Xingwan about it.

After all, their memory of the Shen family is still stuck in the Zhang family's betrayal of their own daughter in exchange for glory and wealth.

It was also because of her original words that Shen Xingwan was forced to leave Beijing and embarked on the road of exile.

She wants to see how these ruthless people are doing now.

The carriage stopped on the familiar country road, and Banxia got out of the car with a veil and walked towards the old mansion in his memory.

On the way, I met a chubby aunt, and Banxia stepped forward and asked, "How is this aunt going to Shen Tang's house?" ”

The fat aunt looked at her curiously and gave her a few enthusiastic directions, "You go inside from that side, and you can see three wooden houses at the foot of the mountain." ”

Banxia thanked the eldest aunt and walked inside with Yueji.

Soon saw three wooden houses, which looked a little old and were surrounded by weeds.

Banxia walked over and knocked on the door, but no one opened the door.

The door was not closed, Banxia simply pushed the door and went in. The room was a mess and smelled strange.

In the end, the two found Zhang's hair in a mess in another room.

Zhang, who used to be spicy, was lying on the bed weakly. The quilt on the bed was rotten and torn, and it smelled of urine, and it was obvious that she was not being well cared for.

Banxia walked in, "This is what happened to you when you betrayed your own daughter." ”

Zhang smirked at her with drooling, "Rice... Rice... Hungry..."

"Do you still know me?" Banxia approached her.

"Are you coming back, my mother is wrong, you don't want my mother..."

After being paralyzed and suffering, Zhang finally remembered the goodness of Shen Xingwan's daughter, and regretted the ghost she had been.

If Shen Xingwan hadn't been allowed to cut off relations with her family, she would definitely take care of her and wouldn't let her suffer.

Banxia took a step back, "It turned out to be crazy, this is the path you chose yourself." ”

Having nothing to say to a madman, Banxia quickly left the dilapidated house.

After coming out and walking a few steps, she ran into the fat aunt again, and Banxia handed her some broken silver to inquire about the Shen family.

"I don't know what's wrong with this Shen family, when I first entered Beijing, it was so beautiful. As a result, now Zhang's is paralyzed and crazy, and Shen Yu's leg is lame, so he can only set up a stall in the town to help people write letters to earn money. ”

Shen Yu was lame for a long time, and he was very surprised, he was still an official when they left Beijing.

"What about Shen Tang?" Banxia is most curious about this.

At the mention of this fat aunt, she was instantly excited, the fire of gossip was burning, and she lowered her voice, "Tsk, I couldn't see that Shen Tang was this kind of person before." ”

"Originally, after he came back, he opened a liquor store, and he had a good life. As a result, he hooked up with the beautiful little widow in the town, and the little widow swept away all the money in the shop, and the shop couldn't be opened. ”

"I often get angry at Zhang's at home, and the two often fight. Slowly, Zhang's went crazy. In the past, their family was envied by all over the country, and they didn't expect to live so miserably now. ”

Banxia listened to a stomach full of gossip and left satisfied.

If they don't have a good time, she will be happy, after all, she has done so many immoral things.

The fat aunt looked at the departing carriage, and always felt that the girl who had just accosted her was very familiar.

recalled all the way, and finally remembered that it wasn't the girl next to the Shen family.

couldn't help but sigh, other people's maids were all in the carriage, looking at the life of the Shen family. It's really one in the sky and one on the ground.

The fat aunt couldn't help but complain to her family when she went back, "I don't know how to cherish the blessings, speaking of which Shen Tang was the one back then, and the child got better after he came back." ”

* It's kind of an explanation of everything in Jiangnan.
