Chapter 2: Overboard

"Yes."

Jiang Jin coughed so much that her brain was shaking, she barely pressed it down, her face was crimson, and her eyes were wet to Ah Niang, "Just change your clothes halfway, so as not to show your feet and come out." ”

She kept in mind what her father had said.

Becoming an older brother is the only way to survive.

"Then you remember to bring Qingshan with you, with his skills, A-Niang is also more relieved." Jiang Lin caressed her face with pity, "I've suffered you for so many years." ”

Jiang Jin shook his head,

The real bitter is A-Niang.

She dragged A-Niang's hand down and held it in her hand, her originally white and delicate hands, in order to feed this family, her fingertips were full of thin calluses.

She hooked the coarse grains and forcibly endured the sourness, "Auntie, I will let you live a good life." ”

"What's wrong with this kid?" Jiang Lin was also a little stunned, she pulled out her hand and pressed the corner of her eye, then got up and said seriously, "A-Niang only hopes that you are healthy and safe." ”

"Can't a child be a big deal?"

Jiang Jin flattered the coquettish, grabbed Jiang Lin's clothes and didn't let go.

"You." Jiang Lin held Jiang Jin's hand, leaned over, hugged the person in his arms, and stroked her hair with the other hand as if comforting, "If it weren't for the situation, my mother would definitely take you to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, so as not to suffer these hardships." ”

Jiang Jin naturally understood what A-Niang meant, but she pretended not to understand, buried her face in her arms and rubbed it, causing Jiang Lin to laugh for a while.

"Okay, what an adult, and still like a hairy child." Jiang Lin complained, but pushed her away with a soft light in his eyes, "Mother go cook, you wait." ”

Jiang Jin nodded obediently.

She watched A-Niang put away the items sent by the two, took out the soup woman and filled it with water and stuffed it into her arms, tuck the quilt corners, and bend over to add two pieces of charcoal.

Obviously, she used to be a young lady who didn't touch hibiscus water with her hands, but now she is very skilled in these jobs.

Just because she lives with her uncle doesn't mean he's responsible for her family's expenses.

When they left the capital, they dismissed all the servants, and only Aoyama was to follow.

After his father died, the whole family was taken care of by Ah Niang, and there was no extra silver to buy a maid to serve.

Moreover, A-Niang is also worried that the newly bought person is a boneless person, and if she finds out that she is dressed as a man, something will happen.

So for so many years, these jobs have been done by A-Niang.

It didn't take long for the curtain to be lifted again, and Aoyama walked in with a small soup bowl, and her eyes lit up even more when she saw her awake.

"Young master, Madame asked you to drink the pear soup first."

Jiang Jin raised his eyes to look at this man who was a little older than her, with a tall figure, plump and handsome, and his high erect hair lined him neatly and neatly, if he wasn't wearing coarse cloth clothes, he would definitely think which young master this was.

Qingshan is more like a brother to her.

In her previous life, she was even more to protect her, and a good person was pierced into a sieve by an arrow!

She will never let her protector die again!

Jiang Jin took it and drank it in small sips, the sweet taste went down, and his throat felt much better.

"Qingshan, you should have been on the side when I fell into the water, did you find anything abnormal?"

"When I arrived, I saw Brother Ling panicking and trying to push the little guy down to save you, the little guy shouted that there would be no water, if I hadn't arrived, Brother Ling would have gone down by himself."

Qingshan frowned, "But Brother Ling never appears in the north of the city on weekdays, he may also do this to me, do you want to check the little guy around him?" ”

"Check." Jiang Jin put down the bowl, "Jiang Ling came to me today to talk about reading. ”

This Jiang Ling, her uncle's only son, has mediocre qualifications, but he is not bad, and he does not make too much trouble for her, on the contrary, sometimes his aunt is looking for trouble, and he will come out and make mud.

In her previous life, she didn't think so much about her falling into the water, she only thought that it was caused by a fight, and she also blocked Qingshan from checking, for fear that there would be some unnecessary misunderstandings between her brothers.

But now the more I think about it, the more strange I feel, even if Jiang Ling has something to look for her, why she can find the north of the city, and why the little gangsters who have always listened to her suddenly lose control, these are all things that make her care.

"Brother Ling is looking for you to study, also to go back to the Lord's house?"

Jiang Jin shook his head and said that he was not clear.

"It's not clear what the lord said."

She pinched her thumb and forefinger to the base of her nose, "Tonight, you go to the north of the city to help me send some medicine to a few of them, and by the way, check out those new kids, if it weren't for a sudden disturbance today, the bridge wouldn't collapse." ”

"Yes."

"The day after tomorrow, you will go to Cheng'an Temple with me and my mother."

Before Qingshan could say anything more, he was directly interrupted by Jiang Lin's voice.

"What do you two say?"

Jiang Lin entered the house with side dishes, and Qingshan turned around directly to take it.

Jiang Jin also got up to help, and answered A-Niang's words in her mouth and directly inserted the topic, some things, just dirty her own hands.

"I'm talking to Aoyama about going out tomorrow and letting him wear a mask."

She put away her three fingers, and framed Qingshan in a rectangle with her thumb and forefinger with both hands, "This figure is too eye-catching." ”

Qingshan lowered his head and hooked his lips, "Young Master, don't make fun of me." ”

"Brother Jin is right."

Jiang Jin snuggled up to Jiang Lin's side and smiled proudly, "Then there is Lao Niang personally preparing for Qingshan?" ”

"Qingshan's matter, I take it to heart." Jiang Lin pressed Jiang Jin to his seat, "Eat quickly." ”

The dishes on the square wooden table are very simple, a dish of cabbage in soup, stir-fried tender tofu, and two bowls of light porridge.

"I was worried that you wouldn't be able to eat the meat, so I didn't cook too much."

But just like that, Jiang Jin was already very content

Jiang Lin stayed with Qingshan to eat, but Qingshan still stubbornly refused and trotted out of the house.

"This kid." Jiang Lin reluctantly took back the dishes and chopsticks and sat down.

Qingshan, who ran out of the house, knew that the Jiang Lin clan treated him like a family, but he still didn't want to go beyond the rules.

He knows what duty is.

Not leaving is to repay the lady's life-saving grace, and guarding the young lady is for the young master's instructions before he dies.

If he had gone one step too late today, the young lady might have gone.

He must find out who is behind this.

Aoyama pursed his lips and was about to go to the kitchen when he saw a sneaky shadow poking in the doorway.

He chased him out immediately, but let Jiang Ling, who rushed out from the intersection, stop him.

"Qingshan, why are you in such a hurry, is my cousin better?"

Qingshan bowed his head and saluted, "The young master is fine." ”

Jiang Ling nodded, and his double chin piled up with his movements, "It's okay, I'm scared today, my cousin really had an accident, I can't escape the blame, it's just that the bridge that was just repaired a few days ago said it would collapse, and when my father came back, I must say it well, these craftsmen are cutting corners." ”

Qingshan's eyes flashed, but his attention was all on the three words "just repaired".

It is definitely not an accident that this happened.

Only Jiang Ling continued to ask: "Is there something wrong with you looking for my mother?" ”

Qingshan looked up suspiciously, and then saw that the courtyard of the eldest lady was in front of him, could it be that person just now......

"If you have something, I can tell you for you, and you must have caught a cold when you saved your cousin today."

"My young master asked the little one to come for the sake of going to Cheng'an Temple the day after tomorrow."

The humble Jiang Ling tilted his head, "Does my cousin want to go?" ”

He waved his hand and turned around directly, "It just so happens that I also want to say goodbye to my mother, I remember this, you can go back." ”

Aoyama saluted, looked at his somewhat round body and fell into deep thought, and then looked sideways at the intersection he had rushed out.

The road leads to the back door.
