The morning sun tore through the night sky, and the sun shone on the land.

Returning to Ningrong Street, which had been absent for a long time, looking at the familiar scenes on the street, I couldn't help but feel relieved.

Jia Qiong got out of the carriage and looked at Ning Rong's Second Mansion close at hand, and was excited again.

This time I came back differently from the past, with my own fame, I have a certain amount of confidence, although I am still too weak, at least the effort has been rewarded.

looked at Jia Zhu who was standing beside him again, and he also silently looked at the façade of the two mansions on the street.

The two had been in Yangzhou for seven or eight days before returning.

In those days, there was nothing to do, every day in the courtyard to read and practice calligraphy, play the flute and stroke the qin, occasionally go to the streets of Yangzhou to visit, and buy some gifts for relatives and friends at home.

Lin Ruhai occasionally instructs the two of them to do their homework, life experience, and cultural skills are not comparable to the two, but the intelligence of the two also impresses Lin Ruhai.

A few people chatted quite happily, and agreed to go to Yangzhou again in two years, and teach again before the two township exams.

The rest of the time is to teach Daiyu to blow the flute and stroke the piano.

Or tell some small stories, but they are different from the stories that will be given to Baochai.

The main reason is that Jia Min saw his mother's family, and he was in a much happier mood, so he kept it again and again.

After seven or eight days, he left Yangzhou and returned to Shenjing in the north.

On the street, Jia Qiong looked at Jia Zhu, who was still remembering, thought for a while, and then said to him:

"Brother Zhu, I'll go home first, and then come to the house in the afternoon to kowtow to my grandmother. The mandarin duck and the parrot were taken away by Brother Zhu first, and they... ”

As soon as he spoke, Jia Zhu stopped remembering, turned his head to look at Jia Qiong, and listened to what he said.

After seeing Jia Qiong say this again, he immediately interrupted Jia Qiong's speech, with some displeasure on his face, and said:

"Brother Qiong, there is no need to say this, since my brother let the two of them take care of you, as your handmaid, how can you get it back.

Brother wants to work hand in hand with Brother Qiong, and advance together in the future, there is no precedence, Brother Qiong does not have to be tempted by words. ”

After speaking, he looked at Jia Qiong meaningfully and said:

"Brother Qiong's knowledge is deeply admired by my brother, and Brother Qiong is not the kind of person who is willing to live under others. In the sound of the flute that day, my brother also heard it, and my brother was not willing to be lonely. ”

When Jia Qiong heard what Jia Zhu said, there was always a little surprise in her eyes, this Jia Zhu was a little more powerful than she imagined. I can't help but say:

"Brother Zhu, I misunderstood the younger brother, but the family is small and there is no one to live in.

During this period of time, I am ready to find another place to live, and then someone cleans it, and it is time, it may take ten days to go back and forth, or it may take more than a month, if there is no suitable place to live, it may take several months. ”

Hearing Jia Qiong's words, Jia Zhu couldn't help but nod in agreement, and said with a smile: "It's for my brother to think too much, Brother Qiong's words are right, and it will be fine to let the two of them live for more than a month."

It just so happens that Brother Qiong often comes to the house to study, so let them live in your room.

But now, Brother Qiong wants to take them to meet her aunt first. In the afternoon, when Brother Qiong comes to the house, bring it over again. ”

The two laughed and talked for a while, walking slowly, feeling the prosperity of Ningrong Street, and the carriage followed.

"Brother Zhu, that brother will say goodbye first, and then go to visit in the afternoon."

When he arrived at the intersection, Jia Qiongfang said goodbye to Jia Zhu, got into the carriage again, and pointed out the road with the coachman.

Jia Zhu looked at the back of Jia Qiong leaving, and couldn't help muttering:

"Brother Qiong, Brother Qiong. Your ingenuity and flexibility are too good, calm and calm, taoguang and obscure, and move in a timely manner, and you are willing to bow down for your brother.

If it weren't for the same family name, I would have persuaded my father to marry my eldest sister to you. ”

After a little emotion, he also got into the carriage and went straight to Rongfu.

Ancient alleys, small courtyards.

The carriage stopped at the door of Jia Qiong's house, and Jia Qiong, the follower of the mandarin duck and the parrot, got out of the carriage.

Standing in front of the door, Jia Qiong took a few steps forward, saw that the courtyard door was closed, stepped forward, and knocked on the door.

Although I miss my mother and sister very much, I am an adult after all, so I don't have too much excitement.

In my previous life, I was a soldier for a few years, and I never returned home, I just missed it, and after returning home, I was a little excited, and there was nothing else.

Shen Xian was making a real girl red in the courtyard, and the fourth sister watched around her, occasionally helping to sort out the fabric and hand over a silk thread.

Hearing a knock on the door outside the courtyard, both of them looked up at the door, only to see that there was a wooden bolt pinned to the courtyard door, which had not been pushed open.

Immediately after another knock on the door, Shen Xian couldn't help asking, "Who, is there something wrong?" ”

Hearing that her mother was indeed at home, Jia Qiong couldn't help but shout: "Mother, the child Jia Qiong is back." ”

Hearing some familiar voices outside the house, as well as the words in these words, Shen Xian stood up excitedly, and before she even noticed that the needle and thread had fallen on the ground, she was about to go to the door.

Unexpectedly, the fourth sister got up and ran faster than her. All the way to the gate of the courtyard, pull out the wooden bolt, open the courtyard door, and do it in one go.

Seeing that it was indeed his brother standing in front of the door, tears flowed out involuntarily.

did not jump directly into Jia Qiong's arms as before, but stood there a little timidly, and muttered weakly:

"Brother, you are finally back, Yaoyao will definitely be obedient in the future, brother don't leave me again, don't want the fourth sister."

Jia Qiong, who was not excited, couldn't help but have a sour nose and a slightly moist eye when she heard the fourth sister say this.

I couldn't help squatting down and gently picked up my sister. said to Jia Yao:

"You will always be my brother's sister, how can my brother not want you. In the past two years, my brother went to travel for the exam, and I bought a lot of gifts for my sister, and you came back.

Hearing Jia Qiong speak, Jia Yao didn't speak, just hugged Jia Qiong's neck tightly and shrunk into her arms, her little head hidden in her brother's hair.

At this time, it has not yet been crowned, and the hair is still a little long.

At this moment, Shen Xian slowly paced to the door, her moist eyes were bloodshot. quietly looked at the two brothers and sisters who hugged each other, and did not speak.

Jia Qiong looked up at her mother in front of her, saw the bloodshot in her eyes, and knew that she must still be doing needlework in the two years since she left.

When he left, he left 800 taels of silver, why was he reluctant to spend it?

I didn't want to criticize my mother, looking at the tears rolling in my mother's eyes, I could only say softly: "Mother, your Qiong'er is back." ”

Hearing Jia Qiong say this, Shen Xian endured tears for a long time, and finally slowly flowed out of the corners of her eyes.

Or to hide his gaffe, or to see Jia Qiong's two girls and the carriage.

couldn't help but turn to wipe away the tears with a silk handkerchief, and then looked at the mandarin duck and the parrot, only to see that the two of them were pink and jade, and they were both beautiful embryos.

He glanced at his son in surprise, and then said:

"Qiong'er, what's the matter with these two girls and this carriage?"

When Jia Qiong heard this, she first patted Jia Yao on the back and said to Jia Yao: "Sister, you come down first, my brother still has some things." ”

Hearing my brother say this, I was afraid that I would make my brother angry if I was disobedient, and I was worried that my brother would leave again. Jia Yao twisted reluctantly, and then got out of Jia Qiong's arms with an 'oh'.

After getting up, Jia Qiong smiled at her mother Shen Xian and said, "This is when I was in Jinling, Brother Zhu asked them to take care of my daily life, and they have been following me since then. ”

After talking briefly, he said to his mother, "Mother, I'll talk to you later." I'll ask the driver to take it off for me, and we'll put it inside the house. ”

After speaking, Jia Qiong talked to the coachman, and gave a few more money, and the coachman and Jia Qiong unloaded the things one by one. Shen Xian took the mandarin duck and the parrot brother to move the things into the courtyard one by one, and Jia Yao picked some small items and took them to the courtyard.

After the coachman left, things were slowly cleaned up, and Jia Qiong told Shen Xian about going to Jinling all the way.

From taking a boat to Shandong to see his senior brother, to going to Jinling to live in Jia's house to prepare for the exam, to doing business with the Xue family, earning more than 10,000 taels of silver, and then meeting Shidian to practice martial arts, until he was admitted to Xiucai, the head of high school.

When I returned to Shenjing, I went to Yangzhou, met the Aunt Jia Min that my mother had said before, and finally returned to Shenjing.

I picked out some important ones and talked about them.

When Shen Xian began to speak from Jia Qiong, she listened with a worried face, and heard that there was nothing to do in Shandong and Jinling, Fang Chang breathed a sigh of relief, and heard that there was a flood in Nanzhili, a snow disaster in Huguang, and a lack of rice and grain in Jinling.

Although the son stood in front of him safely, he was worried that he had suffered hardship, and when he heard that he was a talent in the examination and won the first place, the tears could no longer stop flowing, and he no longer listened to what Jia Qiong said afterwards, and went to the room to cry alone.

Seeing this, Jia Qiong couldn't do it, so she had to introduce the mandarin duck and the parrot to Jia Yao, and gave some small gifts from Jinling and Yangzhou to her sister.

"Brother You, I'm worthy of you... Our son is a talented man... Uncle and uncle, you ... ”

Looking at my sister's smiling cheeks, listening to the mother crying in the room and constantly reading her father's name, speaking vague words, and occasionally saying a few words about the title of the eldest and second uncle.

Jia Qiong knew that her mother's emotions that she had endured for so many years had finally been vented.

The effort of my life is not to redeem others, but to let my mother and sister live a good life. Then marry a few wives and concubines and live a proud life.

If you can reach the top, you can not hesitate to give it a try, as long as you arrange your mother and sister.

The line in the mother's hand, the wanderer's shirt.

Before leaving, I am afraid that I will return late.

Whoever says an inch is careless, and he will be rewarded with three springs.
