Entering the wax moon, the cold wind howled.

Daxia towards the alley of Kyoto's Dongcheng vegetable market, the northwest wind passed through the hall, blowing on the face like a knife, Ji Rongjin rubbed his stiff cheeks with both hands and walked out of the stall, and looked at the end of the alley, the weather was too cold, and there were few people in the usually lively alley.

Retracted his head, and smiled at a few uncles and aunts who sold radish and spinach at the neighboring stalls: "It's too cold, I'll close the stall." He gave them the remaining pounds of bean sprouts.

The uncle and aunt were all acquaintances and did not politely accept her bean sprouts, but before Ji Rongjin could clean up the stall, all kinds of vegetables were stuffed in the empty basket.

They are all simple people who don't like to take advantage of people in vain, she smiled helplessly, and before she could speak politely, the uncle who was close hurriedly waved his hand, "Seeing that it is about to snow, Jin Niang hurry back, don't be trapped by the wind and snow." ”

"Uncle Lin, then you should go back to ...... early"

……

After a period of cold noise, the basket was hung on the little donkey, Ji Rongjin pulled the little donkey out of the alley of the vegetable market, and looked at all kinds of food stalls while walking, the weather was bad and it was snowing, she didn't plan to go out of the stall, and by the way, she prepared everything she needed to eat.

Behind him, the uncle and aunt looked at the back that was gradually moving away, and sighed one by one, "It's not easy for the little girl!" ”

"Yes, it's not easy to live alone and sell dozens of catties of bean sprouts every day!"

Alas, sighing, an aunt suddenly said, "Otherwise, introduce Jinniang to the family, and have a man to support you, and this life will be better." ”

An elderly lady waved her hand, "Don't worry, don't worry about it." ”

The aunt looked puzzled, "Aunt Zhang, how can you say such a thing, everyone is destined to sell vegetables together, and it doesn't matter if you help each other!" ”

Aunt Zhang wants to smile or not, without the kindness she was with Ji Rongjin just now, "Li family, you have only been selling vegetables with us for more than ten days, don't you know?" ”

"......" Aunt Li looked at Aunt Zhang with a gossipy face.

Aunt Zhang shook her head.

"Sister Zhang, you say it!" Aunt Li looked anxious.

Being watched by everyone, Aunt Zhang cleared her throat a little bit, "Jin Niang has set up a female household, and she doesn't plan to marry in this life." ”

"What...... Aunt Li was obviously frightened, "this...... How is it possible not to marry...... How did you spend that day? ”

The sky was dark, there were few pedestrians on the streets, and a few horse-drawn carriages were speeding through the wind and snow.

The sound ......of the coachman flicking his whip resounded in the empty streets, and no one paid attention.

The guard on horseback leaned to the side of the carriage and arched his hand, and said with some hesitation, "Master ......" as if he wanted to persuade something.

"Osmanthus Lane."

"Yes, sir." The guard bowed to his waist, gave a military salute, and immediately waved at his companion who was opening the way in front.

The young general pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, pulled the reins with both hands, and walked towards Osmanthus Lane.

Out of the long alley, scattered snowflakes fell on the tip of her nose, and before Ji Rongjin could brush it off, it had turned into water stains, half of the water vapor was absorbed by the skin, and half was wiped off by her bare hands.

The scattered snowflakes gradually became dense, sprinkled and sprinkled, and slowly, the white expanse actually illuminated the heaven and earth.

Ji Jinjin didn't rush home, pulled the prepared ingredients, rode on the little donkey, let the little donkey slowly and leisurely, and calmly admired the snowflakes flying in the sky, or flying, or circling, or falling straight and fast, like an elf in the forest.

When the interest came, he reached out to catch the crystal snowflakes, but as soon as he arrived in his hand, they disappeared and turned into small droplets.

Wan Er smiled, stretched out his hand to hold the reins, and looked up at the eaves of various shops on the street, the gray roofs and tiles were dyed white, and the bustling Kyoto market full of fireworks instantly looked like an elegant ink painting, which was very beautiful.

There was a carriage whizzing by, Ji Rongjin glanced at it, and continued to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the snow, but her thoughts unconsciously diverged to three years ago, at that time, she was still a social animal in the Celestial Empire, not to mention fame, but she also relied on her own unremitting efforts, from being a homemaker in a small town to buying a small apartment in Kyoto to gain a foothold, and finally fought out a place of her own in the super involution.

I once thought that she accidentally died in the early morning of overtime, looking at the street market that was gradually covered in snow, and in a blink of an eye, she woke up from the land of poor mountains and rivers to live in the capital for three years.

Three years ago, when she opened her eyes, the weeds were overgrown, Ji Rongjin actually crossed over to a female corpse in the wilderness, her head was broken and bleeding, and her clothes were not good, she tried to struggle, but she didn't have half the strength.

Is the newborn life going to pass away? Just when Ji Rongjin didn't find a trace of the memory of the deity, an old couple chopping wood passed by and rescued her.

"Girl, what's your last name and what's your name?" The eldest lady asked kindly.

"I'm ......," she pointed to her fingers, "and I hit the rocks and can't remember anything." ”

The old couple followed the bloodstain and found that she had rolled down from a nearby hill and had indeed hit a stone.

"Poor little lady." The two worked together to save her.

From head to toe, it was all wounds, and it took the eldest lady a long time to clean up the blood stains, and when she looked at the wound that was about to pus, she turned her head and shouted, "Old man, why don't you go to Lao Langzhong to get a few medicines?" ”

The old man squatted on the threshold and smoked dry tobacco, and it took him a long time to squeeze a sentence, "I can't open the pot at home, so there is something to change the dressing." He looked at the herbs he had found from the mountains, and he used this to get it.

Ji Rongjin was lying on a dilapidated plank bed, looking at the thatched hut that was leaking everywhere, a small black square table, two tree stumps and small stools, and firewood burdens in the corner, and nothing else.

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a family with four walls.

Ji Rongjin smiled apologetically: "No need, aunt." ”

"That'...... Then I'll put it on you with the herbs the old man picked? ”

Ji Rongjin nodded gratefully, and sighed leisurely, there are still many good people in the world.

In the next few days, although food was very scarce, the eldest mother did her best, and even brought her the only new set of clothes for her newly married daughter to change for her.

Of course, when she wore it, she didn't know that this was the only new set of clothes for a newly married woman, until half a month later, she could get up from the bed and walk a few steps, originally thought that the old couple had gone out to chop wood, and when she came out to bask in the sun to mend the calcium of bone injuries, she heard whispers on the slope in front of the house.

Others speak, as a modern person, there is a quality of avoidance, first, there is a lack of food, she is hungry, and secondly, the injuries on her body hurt terribly, and it has taken all her strength to move outside, I really don't want to move, I didn't expect her to hear the words of a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

"Mother, if I can't sell it for a big price, my new clothes will be a loss, and my mother-in-law's family won't be able to spare me."

"I know, don't worry, as long as the injuries on her body are healed, the fine skin and white meat will definitely be sold for a good price......"

……

Saved her to sell for a good price? But the old couple doesn't look like bad people, they go up the mountains and down the river, the fruits they pick, and most of the fish they catch go into her stomach, are these things fake and deceitful?

His head buzzed, Ji Rongjin only felt a terrible headache, and he didn't listen to a word of the next words, so he endured his drowsiness and lay back on the broken wooden board in the house.

After a while, the old couple entered the house with a strange little woman.

The old woman smiled: "Jin Niangzi, how is it today, are you better?" ”

If it weren't for overhearing their conversation, Ji Rongjin would have seen that this smile would be kind and kind, but at this moment...... As a modern elite, the quietness cultivated in the workplace is not covered.

She smiled faintly, "It's okay, hard work." ”

"No hard work, no hard work." As he spoke, he took the wild fruit from her daughter's hand and handed it to her, "I can only take this for lunch at noon today." After speaking, he sighed worriedly, "Wait for two more days, and when the autumn grain comes down, I will boil millet porridge for you." ”

I don't know why, 'Wait two more days' rushed towards Ji Rongjin like a spell, making her breathless, are they going to start?

The young woman didn't say anything when she entered the room, and a pair of yellowed eyes kept turning around Ji Rongjin, as if she was waiting to be evaluated.

Ji Rongjin endured the discomfort and tilted his head to eat the fruit.

The old woman smashed her daughter in a place she didn't see, pulled her wife again, and said with a smile, "Let's go chop wood, you be careful, if you want anything, wait for us to come back." ”

Hearing this, she tilted her head again and nodded obediently, not allowing them to see what she knew.

The old woman thought that the little lady knew nothing, and with the wounds on her body, she was defenseless, and went out with a happy face.

Ji Rongjin was wounded, and it was not so easy to escape smoothly, after the old couple went out to chop wood, she first looked at the thatched hut before and after, and then she found that the hut was not in the village at all, and then she realized that maybe this was a foothold for the villagers to build in the mountains for hunting.

There was nothing in the foothold, which was normal, but the old couple created the illusion that this was their poor home.

Are the poor mountains and bad waters out of the people? Are they so cunning?

For a long time, in Ji Rongjin's concept of life, ordinary people are simple, they are a symbol of diligence and kindness, but a crossing made her find that these people were better than the opponents she met in the mall.

How could she escape?

The cry of the little donkey pulled Ji Rongjin back from her memories, and when she looked up, she had actually arrived home.

There are not only old horses who know the way, but also her little donkey, Ji Mianrong touched the ears of the little donkey affectionately, "Double the evening tonight." ”

The little donkey seemed to understand her words, and happily raised its neck and barked, let it pass, anyway, she escaped smoothly, what else do you want to do!

Ji Rongjin cleaned up his mood, jumped off the little donkey happily, smoothed his shirt, took out the key to open the door, but found that the door was unlocked.

No, is there a burglar in the house? Ji Rongjin picked up the flat pole with his hand and cautiously pushed the door in.

Inside the door, guards stood on the left and right.

"You are ......" Seeing that they were dressed like people from the official palace, what happened, Ji Rongjin couldn't figure it out.

The left and right guards instantly lined up in the middle and blocked them with knives: "Who are you?" ”

Isn't that what she asked, why did she throw it back again?
