Chapter Eighty-Nine: Bitter Memories of Childhood
After the banquet, everyone sat down to drink tea and chat. After a while, the three heads of the Sunflower Sect and Ji Wei first said goodbye and went back to the guest room to rest. Fang Shang and Liu Jing saw that the people left behind were Junxia and their young people, and it was not easy to stay for a long time, so as not to make it inconvenient for them to talk, they just said goodbye and returned to the room.
After the two left, Yi Lan immediately asked, "Jin Yu, Ji Wei is the one who proposed to you, right?" Jin Yu was embarrassed to answer, only smiled, and Fang Yang replied on his behalf: "Exactly, it's okay, it's not a good talent, right?" Without waiting for Yi Lan to answer, Jun Xia asked first: "Jin Yu, did you promise someone?"
This time, Yi Lan replied for Jin Yu: "Don't worry, senior brother, your sister Jin Yu didn't promise others!" Jin Yu said shamefully: "Brother Jun, see where you said?" Seeing this, Yi Lan even teased: "People Jin Yu is waiting for her dream in her dream The sun god Jun brother appeared, how can she easily agree to someone else!"
Jun Xia smiled proudly, which made Jin Yu's heart full of sweetness, Jun Xia and said: "It's still my Xia Nanfu!" Jin Yu was even more ashamed after hearing this, and said, "Don't make fun of me two of you!" Jun Xia hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Don't dare, don't dare!" Because it was not good to talk too late, it disturbed the quiet of the night on the outskirts of the city, as well as the dreams of the guests in the Yunlai Inn. After a while, they also went back to their rooms to rest.
Fang Shangliu also went to bed to rest after a quiet bath, this is the first time the two have lived in the same room, and there is no need to mention the love between husband and wife. The light of the faint tung oil lamp swayed on the faces of the two, Fang Shang hugged Liu Jing in his broad arms, and after a while, he asked strangely: "Lady, I never dared to dream that you are still perfect, what is going on?"
This was indeed something Fang Shang had not expected, after all, Jin Yu was a big girl. And Liu Jing was ready to explain everything to Fang Shang, she replied: "Husband, Jin Yu's original father was an excellent person, but his body was not sound, and the immortals must have been prophets, so they handed Jin Yu over to us to raise." ”
Fang Shang was even more curious, and asked, "Then why did you want to marry him at that time? Didn't he explain to you before marriage?"
Liu Jing sighed, and then said: "It's clear, just because my family is poor, and my parents are sick, in order to cure the disease, my parents sold the house, and then there is nowhere to live, since I was three years old, my parents took me around begging, and when I was six years old, my parents both died of illness." So, when I was six years old, I had no one to take care of me. I was so young, I had to live by begging on my own.
"At that time, I didn't see the slightest hope for my future, and I thought about just dying. But later, when I begged all the way to the county seat of Tedalis, I met an uncle who was running a tea stall and asked me, 'Little sister, why did you come out to beg alone?'
"When I said that my parents were sick and dead, he saw that I was pitiful and said to me, 'Little sister, you can follow me to sell tea!' Although I am also poor, it is better than begging alone on the road!' Since then, I have helped him sell tea, although I can't eat all meals, but at least I have someone to rely on, and he loves me very much, so that I feel like a family again.
"Later, I told him my name, and he said to me, 'What a nice name, but now my life is a little harder, if only I could have all the hardships!' Later, he said to me, 'Liu Jing, don't call me uncle, just call me father!' ’
I asked him why he couldn't marry and have children, and he told me that he was not in good health and that he was no longer blessed. Although I was young and didn't know what it was, I didn't want to call him Dad, I just called him Uncle. When I was eight years old, I thought to myself that I would marry him when I grew up, so I changed my name to Big Brother.
"He doesn't follow, but he can't do anything about me. Later, I followed him back to his hometown, that is, Qinxiang County, and he told his brother and sister-in-law that I was the daughter he picked up outside, so I told his brother and sister-in-law that it was not a daughter, and I wanted to marry him when I grew up. His brother and sister-in-law asked me why I wanted to marry him when I grew up, and I said he was a good person. But he insisted on telling others that I was his daughter.
"When I was sixteen years old, he invited a matchmaker to tell me about matchmaking, but I just didn't look at it, and he didn't recognize me as his wife until he died, but I had long regarded him as my husband. As I told you, when I had Jinyu, I asked Jinyu to call him father, and he asked Jinyu to call him grandfather. Jinyu listened to me even more and always called him his father.
"Ten years ago, when the West invaded, all the people who went to the west, with more than two brothers in the family, and men under the age of forty, had to send one to the battlefield, Jinyu and her father didn't want his brother to go to the army to fight, so he went, and then he died on the battlefield!
After hearing this, Fang Shang couldn't help hugging Liu Jing tightly, as if he wanted to give her more love and more care. He sighed: "Lady, I didn't expect your childhood to be so miserable, and now it's finally bitter!" Liu Jing lay softly in Fang Shang's arms, with indescribable happiness and sweetness in her heart. It's just that the past is unbearable, and the beauty is filled with memories of a difficult childhood.
There was a question that made Fang Shang a little puzzled, he asked: "Lady, you say, why did your parents go in the same year?" Liu Jing's thinking entered the unbearable childhood again, she said: "At that time, my mother was bitten by a dog, and my father went to kick the dog again, and was also bitten by the dog. I remember hearing the adults who buried my parents say that it was mad rabies. ”
Hearing this, Fang Shang stopped talking about this topic, so as not to cause Liu Jing more sadness, and he said, "Tell me, who is the young and beautiful woman who instructed you to come to the Touyunlai Inn?"
Liu Jing began to dig into her memories again, and after a while she replied, "I don't know who she is, and I haven't seen her again." Looking back now, she may have something to do with Jinyu, what do you say?" Fang Shang agreed: "It's very likely! If it's really related to Jinyu, I'll definitely see her again in the future." ”
In fact, Liu Jing didn't really want to meet her again, but he said duplicitously: "I hope!" Fang Shang's curiosity became stronger and stronger, and he asked, "Why did you say that the immortals handed over Jinyu to you to raise?" Liu Jing shook her head unconsciously, and then said, "It was a fairy-like beautiful woman who handed over Jinyu to us." In this way, the two talked until near dawn and then fell asleep for a while.
When it was dawn, Fang Shang and Liu Jing also got up and had breakfast with all the guests, and the four guests of the Sunflower Sect said goodbye and went back first. Junxia, the thirteen of them only sat for a while, and then left for the Yi Garden.
Fang Yang and the three of them were still the same as before, riding horses first, but Junxia and the others arrived at Yiyuan first, because Yi Lan wanted to arrange for the three of them to enter the palace tomorrow to face the saints.
As soon as Yi Lan and his entourage arrived at Yiyuan, they took Jane into the palace to ask for a saint, and it didn't take long for Eulva to ask the two to bring Jane back, saying that they would welcome everyone to the palace the next morning.
