Chapter 1 The little beggar on Ning Rong Street stops the car

Next Chapter

Dayu Dynasty, Hongtai five years.

Shenjing West City, Yankang Fang, Ningrong Street.

The reason why it is called Ningrong Street, because although this street is more than a mile long, there are only two households, and the east is the Ningguo Mansion, which is the residence of the descendants of Ningguo Gongjiayan, the founder of the Dayu Dynasty.

To the west is the Rongguo Mansion, which is the residence of Jia Yuan, the Duke of Rongguo.

On an August evening, the heat had not subsided, and the smooth stone pavement of Ning Rong Street had been scorched for a day, and the temperature was still a little hot.

There were almost no pedestrians on the street, and the three beast-headed gates at the main entrance of Rongguo Mansion were closed, and the two tall stone lions on both sides of the door stared angrily at the silent street.

Without warning, the silence of the street was broken by a chaotic sound of footsteps, and it turned out to be a group of Rongfu people in short cloth clothes coming from the west.

This group of family members couldn't help but say that they came to disperse the few pedestrians on the street, which was quite a bit of the majesty of the city management in later generations.

"Get out of the way! The old lady of Rongfu and the old lady have returned home! ”

Pedestrians were also interested, and avoided or hid under the wall.

Behind the family is a green cover beaded eight-treasure cart, followed by a few old men and young men riding tall horses and wearing brocade clothes. There were a few more green cars behind them.

"This is your chance!" At the base of the wall, a little boy of seven or eight years old in ragged clothes rushed to the group of men on horseback in the middle of the street, grabbed the reins of the horses, and shouted, "I want to see my father!" I want to see the pardon master! ”

A horse was frightened, and the man with his front hooves dangling stood up, almost knocking off the middle-aged man who was riding on the horse.

The horse's front hooves fell, and it was about to step on the little boy's head.

Fortunately, there was a housekeeper-like man on the side, and he quickly dragged the boy aside to avoid the tragedy.

"Where did you come from, but you're crazy! Running here to make trouble? Don't ask what this place is! The butler raised his hand and slapped his mouth in the boy's face.

The little boyfriend fell to the ground in response, but got up again to clamoring to find his father.

There were a few knocks in the Cuigai Zhuying Eight Treasure Car, and the car, which was already not fast, suddenly stopped.

The curtain next to the car was lifted, revealing an old woman's face.

The old lady looked to be in her seventies, with silver hair, some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and forehead, but her skin was fair and ruddy, and she looked pampered.

This person is the wife of Jia Daishan, the second-generation Rongguo Gong, and the first-class wife Shi Taijun Jia's mother.

"What's wrong?" Mother Jia asked a housekeeper who was walking with the car next to her.

The mother-in-law replied: "There is a little flower who doesn't know the rules, and suddenly came out from the side and startled the big man's horse, the big man almost fell, and the little flower was almost trampled to death by the horse." ”

"Oh?" Jia Mu couldn't help frowning: "Are people okay?" ”

"It's okay, fortunately, Uncle Lai quickly pulled the little flower away."

Jia Mu nodded and asked, "Why did I listen to that kid say I want to see his father in a trance?" ”

The mother-in-law smiled: "I think it's a little madman." ”

Jia Mu said, "Don't embarrass that child, bring me to see." ”

The mother-in-law agreed and went back, and sure enough, after a while, the butler grabbed the little boy by the neck and dragged him to Jia's mother's car, and pressed him to kneel.

Mother Jia glanced at the unkempt and skinny boy in the car and said, "It's strange and pitiful." What kind of child are you, your parents? How did you get here? Beware of horses stepping on it is playing? ”

The little boy looked up and said, "I want to see my father!" I'm here for my dad! ”

Jia Mu asked, "Who is your father?" ”

"My mother said that my father is a first-class mighty general in the Rongguo Mansion in Shenjing, surnamed Jia Zhiyu!" The child replied without thinking about it.

Jia Mu couldn't help but be stunned.

"Dare to talk nonsense! Where is my eldest son like you! You're begging! The butler raised his hand and wanted to hit again.

"Lai Da, don't do it yet!" Mother Jia stopped the housekeeper and asked, "Child, your father is Jia Yu, who is your mother?" ”

"My mother is Xiao Cuiliu!" The child said again.

Everyone's faces were a little ugly, this is obviously the name of a fireworks girl!

"Have you seen your father?"

The boy shook his head.

Jia's mother asked again: "Did your mother tell you that your father is Jia Yu?" There is no evidence for words, but there is evidence? ”

The boy suddenly became vigilant and asked rhetorically, "Grandma, who are you?" ”

Jia Mu smiled: "I am Jia Yu's mother." If you have proof, I'll call the shots for you! ”

"...... Grandmother? ”

The boy looked at Jia's mother carefully again, and then took out a pendant from the placket of his clothes and took it off, his dirty little hands clenched tightly.

After hesitating for a moment, he handed it to Jia's mother and said, "This is what my mother left me, saying that it was a token of love that my father gave her...... You...... You're going to give it back to me when you're done! ”

Jia Mu smiled: "This is nature! Can I, an old woman, still rob your children's things? ”

Lai Da was about to pick up the pendant, but the child glared at him, took a step forward and crossed his feet and directly delivered the pendant to Jia's mother.

Jia Mu took it and took a closer look, and couldn't help but catch it.

The boy gave her not a pendant, but a jade pendant with a Pixiu pattern. The style is simple and the pattern is vigorous, and it is obviously an antiquity.

This Jade Pei Jia Mu recognizes! It was the dowry given to her by her father, Lao Shangshuling, when she married into the Jia family from her mother's family. It is an antiquity of the Han Dynasty, and Jia's mother loved it very much, and later gave it to her eldest son Jia Yu.

Although she hasn't seen her for many years, Jia Mu won't be wrong. There is no second piece of this jade pendant.

"Take this child into the house, wash him and change into clean clothes first, and then I will ask him carefully! Go home! ”

Mother Jia glanced at the little boy outside the car again and lowered the curtain.

"Yes!" Lai Da agreed.

He could see Jia Mu's demeanor clearly, this jade pendant, or this little boy, should indeed have some origin.

He faintly regretted that he had slapped the boy just now.

"Little ...... Little brother, please come here. ”

Lai Da didn't dare to drag the little boy like a chicken this time, and his tone was a little more polite.

The little boy didn't speak, lowered his head and obediently followed Lai Da in.

Many of the men were watching and whispering to him, but no one saw a hint of cunning in the boy's eyes.
