Chapter 17 Is there also Aunt Ke's share?
---
Early in the morning, when Liang Xueyin opened her eyes, they were already busy. There was some cold wind last night, and she didn't cover the quilt when she slept, and pressed the quilt under her as a blanket, so she was blown and frozen. After a simple wash, I didn't eat breakfast, and I was going to buy some buns on the street to pad my stomach.
She watched Ke Rong carefully examine her outfit in front of a broken mirror, holding the hairpin she gave her in her hand, hesitating. Liang Xueyin walked up to her, took the hairpin from her hand, found a good position and put it on her head, and praised: "Madame wears it more beautifully than my mother." But she is an elegant beauty. ”
After Ke Rong heard the praise, he unconsciously smiled and bent his eyes, and replied to her: "The mouth is so sweet, it will really please me." Yangui's mouth is not so sweet. ”
"Flim Flam." When Ke Yangui heard his mother mention his name, he stood outside the door and cast an indifferent look into the house and said.
Liang Xueyin didn't take his words to heart, but smiled and shook his head at him proudly.
He stared at her expression, turned around and smiled secretly.
"Madame, what are we going to do today?" She then asked.
Ke Rong gently stroked her face, walked to the bamboo basket over there, lifted the cloth spread on the basket, took out a piece of shortbread from it and handed it to her, saying, "Try Aunt Ke's craftsmanship." Call me Aunt Ke, Mrs. seems too raw. ”
"Thank you, Aunt Ke." She said gratefully, took a bite of the shortbread, which was fragrant and sweet, and exclaimed, "It's delicious." ”
"Thank you for the compliment, too." She smiled knowingly, and took several more shortbreads out and stuffed them into her hands.
Liang Xueyin was forced to get these pieces and felt flattered. He stuffed them all back into the basket and said with a smile: "No, no, no." I can't eat too much, one piece is enough, and the rest can be sold for more money to buy some daily necessities. ”
"It's fine. Now is the time for you to grow your body, you have to eat a little more and not go hungry. You don't have to be so polite to me, our family can't take out any good things to entertain you, if you don't eat, Aunt Ke will always feel that she owes you something. When she talked about the situation at home, she didn't dare to look at Liang Xueyin, not because she was afraid, but because she felt indebted to her from the bottom of her heart.
Ke Yangui also heard her words, so he was outside the door and was about to come in to refute her, but Liang Xueyin spoke up: "Aunt Ke, don't be like this." I didn't have anything to get since I was a child, and I didn't care about this moment. And I'm not that kind of person. I'm already embarrassed to disturb your life, who cares about that. ”
Ke Rong was a little flattered, and a smile suddenly bloomed on his originally tense face. Pulling Liang Xueyin in his arms and hugging her, he patted her on the back in surprise and joy and said, "You are a good boy." Aunt Ke naturally loves you. Your Liang family, there are no bad people. All generations are heroes. Your father was, your grandfather was, and your great-grandfather was. Even the women are heroines among women. can teach his husband and children, and he can also go into battle to kill the enemy. ”
"Does Aunt Ke know a lot about my family?" Liang Xueyin asked puzzled.
Ke Rong let go of her, picked up the bamboo basket, locked the door, and took the hands of the two of them. Say as you walk:
"There are a lot of things that even I don't know very well, but I heard from my father. Seventy-three years ago, when the world was in turmoil, your great-grandfather was at the top of the list, and when he conquered the last land, he died due to the betrayal of his old friend. Your great-grandmother fled with your grandfather overnight, and my grandson's family returned the favor of your great-grandmother and protected the safety of their mother and son. Three years later, your grandfather married and had children. Then, within two years, your grandfather broke out of his own world by himself. I don't need the help of the grandson's family. He's a great character. But good people don't live long, and within ten years of business turnaround, he fell ill and died, and then his wife also committed suicide. After his death, the pillar of the Liang family fell, and life changed back to the embarrassed way it used to be. Your grandfather endured his grief, relied on a little knowledge taught by his father, and worked hard to bring back the past glory of the Liang family, among which your grandmother's family helped a lot, but she was framed by traitors and led to the tragic murder of the loyal and good people, and your father has a grandson family to protect the natural health. Everyone in the Liang family is a hard-working person, but you are different, they will definitely protect your "baby" after all kinds of hardships. You're going to grow up to be that kind of person after all. ”
Liang Xueyin's heart tingled, grandpa had such a hard time.
"The Liang family is kind-hearted, affectionate, and obsessed with one thing. So, you're going to change that habit, and it's not good. Of the five generations of the Liang family, three generations were close to destruction because they believed in one person too much. Ke Rong's eyes were sad, and he sighed.
"So, you still have to listen to the truth of your predecessors, it's good for you." Ke Yangui came over to see her and reminded.
"Does Aunt Ke also think I can become a big man?" She wasn't confident in herself and didn't even want to accept that fact. It's ridiculous, it's like a fake. She just wants to protect the people who love her, and the other feelings are too big, how can she be virtuous. Although her friends are eager to become a great person, she just wants to be a person who lives up to the expectations of her relatives. She doesn't have that much ambition, she yearns for the countryside more than the world, and has no quarrel with the world.
Ke Rong stood in place, squeezed her hand, and encouraged her, "Of course. Not everyone has such a good family and generous care. From the first time she saw Xueyin, Aunt Ke knew that the little girl in front of her would definitely do something. Because she is full of righteousness and insists on doing what she feels is right. The back is hard, but the spirit is positive. Then there will definitely be such a day. ”
"But..." Tears welled up in her eyes. I thought of a certain scene and wanted to refute it, but I was too embarrassed to say it, so I stopped just saying two words.
"If there is no point in struggling, then what does Xueyin think your relatives have to struggle for more than 70 years, even if they have endured all kinds of hardships?" Ke Rong asked.
Ke Yangui saw that her mother was too tight for Liang Xueyin when she said this, she didn't look like she wanted to complete the task, and she couldn't bear to be so sad, so she said a little blame and stopped Ke Rong: "Mother." ”
Ke Rong looked at him and smiled, shaking his head resolutely with determination, his gaze not evading. Then she said to the silent her: "Xueyin, you are carrying the expectations of many people, and you can't let them down." ”
"Do you also have a copy of Aunt Ke?" She raised her teary eyes and asked in a simple choked voice.
Ke Rong saw her aggrieved appearance, and his heart seemed to have been hit by something, but he still nodded.
"Do you also have a share of the wild goose returning to my brother?" She persistently continued.
Ke Yangui turned his head and couldn't bear to look at her, his body was stiff, and he refused to move.
"Of course." Ke Rong said on his behalf. He was a little displeased, but he didn't show it.
Liang Xueyin wiped away her tears with her sleeve, smiled reluctantly, and said, "I know." ”
