Chapter 25: The Ancestral House
When Wu Yan heard this, she opened her mouth, as if she was still hesitating, and she cried again.
Seeing her like this, Tao Yao didn't force her, but said softly: "I'll go get the medicine box first and bandage the wounds on your body." ”
As he spoke, he got up and poured her a bowl of tea and let her hold it warmly. Her clothes were very thin, dirty and torn, and there were blood stains in a few places, in this cold and snowy place, I don't know how she escaped to the Purple Silk Pavilion, Tao Yao picked up the stove in the house, moved to her, and then went to get her spare medicine box.
Seeing Tao Yao taking care of herself so carefully and thoughtfully, and remembering that she had been a classmate with Tao Yao for two years, although she always felt inferior in front of these official ladies because of her family background, she didn't dare to get too close.
However, every time Tao Yao brought something from home, she always brought three copies to the little sisters in this house, not only with her best Zhou Die and Zhao Wanrong, but also with herself, and it was no different from them.
I often push and don't accept it, but Tao Yao didn't force her, and respected the stubborn self-esteem in her heart very intimately.
"I'm homeless," Wu Yan suddenly opened her mouth, "I'm homeless." ”
After that, Fu began to cry again, and Tao Yao responded, while carefully applying medicine to the injuries on her face and body, some hits, some punches and kicks, some stumbling and falling, and more chilblains, presumably because she fled from home all the way here. Fortunately, Wu Yan's home is in Jiang Village, more than 20 miles away from Ziya Pavilion, which is not very far, otherwise, she may not be able to make it to Ziya Pavilion alive if she is alone in her daughter's house.
Seeing that Tao Yao did not urge, Wu Yan finally gradually let down her guard and told her about the family's affairs: "You know, my grandmother was seriously ill a year ago, and my father came to look for me to go back, and served the decoction by my grandmother's side until my grandmother passed away. ”
Tao Yao nodded slowly: "Yes, I heard about it, so when you have to mourn for your grandmother at home, you won't come back." ”
Wu Yan listened to Tao Yao's words, she trembled a little with excitement, Tao Yao quickly held her shoulders and comforted her: "What's wrong?" Is it cold? ”
Wu Yan gritted her teeth and said, "Mourning, where will they allow me to mourn?"
I'm ...... My mother hanged herself when I was ten years old. It was on the crooked-necked tree in front of my house that my father and I went out to the market, and when I came back at noon, she was already hanging there.
It was my uncle who came to take her body down, and everyone was crying, my uncle was crying, my grandmother was crying, my father was crying, crying heartbreakingly, as if everyone was heartbroken.
But in less than half a year, my father married a step-family, and had a son and daughter, and the family was harmonious and happy, as if I was the only one, and my mother never existed.
Only my uncle was kind to me, and he often came to see me, took me to my grandmother's house for dinner, and remembered my mother with me, saying that she used to be kind to me, and telling me interesting stories about her childhood, as if she was still with us.
My embroidery was also learned from my mother, my grandmother's family, a well-known rich family in our village, the family has a set of ancestral houses, and later after my uncle married a wife, my grandfather's family paid for the construction of a new house, spacious and spacious, three times larger than the old ancestral house. I was able to come to the Purple Silk Pavilion, and the money for the annual tuition fee was also paid by my grandmother.
When she was seriously ill, she quietly gave me the title deed of the ancestral house at home, saying that when the dowry was added to the box, when she was dying, she also gave the title deed of the new house to her uncle, and instructed her uncle to leave the ancestral house to me.
But who would have thought that my grandmother had just passed away, and my uncle came to the door and asked me for the title deed of the ancestral house, saying that it was all their royal family, and my mother was already a married daughter, and I was a member of the Wu family, so I couldn't take my turn to share the ancestral house of their Wang family.
I've never seen such an anxious uncle and aunt, and they've always been kind to me. ”
Speaking of this, Wu Yan couldn't help crying: "Why do people become like this, I have always regarded my uncle as my dearest person, a person who is closer than my father." They were so good to me when they were children, and they have always been so good to me, how can everything change for a title deed? ”
