Chapter 12 Sijun makes people old
At night, the moonlight is bright, and a bright moon lies in the inky sky. In the lotus pond of Mengfu, lotus flowers bloom, exuding bursts of fragrance, lotus leaves swaying with the wind, it is really a unique scene.
Under the moonlight, a few carps could be faintly seen, as if they were bathed in blood, and their scales were shining at night.
The fish are flicking their tails in the pool, swimming in the water without any trouble, and from time to time they poke out of the water and spit out blisters as clear as jade.
A slender jade hand reached into the water, disturbing the fish, they scattered and fled, some hid in the dark, some hid under the lotus, one of the fish was a little clumsy, one head actually plunged into the mud, provoked the warbler to laugh, in the blink of an eye this pond water suddenly did not see a fish.
"Alas...... Where did this dead ghost go, causing my sister to not be able to eat and sleep, it really hurt my sister's infatuation. “
Ying'er was lying on the edge of the pool boringly, her little hands swinging in the water, not knowing what she was thinking.
"My sister is so attentive to him, but I don't understand what is good about him. She muttered to herself, hugging for her sister, but she felt helpless, sighed and then fell into a daze, and at some point a slender hand behind her patted her shoulder.
"You don't understand a lot of things, you can't see it when he is interested in me. Mingyu walked quietly, and his speech was still as gentle as before, but he was not as energetic as a few days ago, and his face was extremely haggard.
This voice startled Ying'er, she stood up smartly, and then turned her head back, relieved to see that it was her own sister.
Her childlike heart came up, hugged her sister's arm like a coquette, shook back and forth, and begged: "Daddy and mother left early, I only have one of your relatives left, you haven't eaten for a few days, how can I rest assured?"
Mingyu cried and laughed, pushed her hand away, stood alone under the moonlight, and took advantage of the moonlight, but saw that she was thin, her clothes were full of wrinkles, and she was listless, and she didn't see any smile.
Although Mingyu's face was a little haggard, her eyes were very different, and she said indifferently: "If you can't wait for him for ten years, I will go with him." “
Hearing this, how could Ying'er not be in a hurry, she was so anxious that she was talking nonsense, and she actually said: "Wait? Wait for a Laoshizi! If he marries a wife and has children outside, and asks you to serve tea and pour water for her wife, you are also willing?"
As soon as these words came out, she couldn't help but be jealous, so angry that she stomped her feet again and again, and she couldn't help but blurt out and scolded: "He has the courage to do this? I'll go to him tomorrow, if he really brings people home, I will definitely not spare him!"
As soon as Ying'er heard this, she saw that she was in spirit, but she couldn't help but laugh at her, Lianbu moved lightly, strolled to the side, and sneered: "If the uncle is standing next to you, where do you dare to say such a thing, I'm afraid you will say: 'What the uncle says is what it is, I just listen to the uncle's orders.'" Then I didn't dare to come out of my breath, stood beside them, and looked at them with a smirk!"
The more she provoked her, the more angry she became, and she shook her sleeves and said, "Hmph, don't persuade me, in a few days...... I'll see how many sassy hooves he can find for me to go home in the past ten days and half a month!" Throw up your sleeves and leave.
Ying'er saw that what she said was not angry, and she was a little annoyed, annoyed that she wanted to provoke her, if she really went to find her uncle this time, three or five months would be less, and ten or eight years would not be impossible.
really let her give up this brocade clothes and food, and she couldn't bear to eat and drink.
But I wanted to persuade at the moment, but I didn't dare to go, thinking that she was angry, why bother to touch that moldy head, it was not too late to go again tomorrow.
By the lotus pond, she pondered for a while, how to persuade her sister to reassure tomorrow, and simulated it in her mind, and her heart would definitely be able to persuade her, so she turned around and went back to the room with satisfaction.
In the early morning of the next day, the golden rooster reported that Mingyu had been languishing in recent days, and Ying'er found a few guys to come to the house to cook and clean up.
Mingyu usually gets up early, makes some of his favorite foods for Meng Kang, and then changes his clothes and cleans his face, but now that he is nowhere to be found, Mingyu sleeps until he wakes up naturally, his hair is not combed, and he does not put on makeup, almost every day he sighs, like he has a heart disease.
Fortunately, Cao Caohua recovered from her condition, and she got along with her very happily, and she was usually able to help deal with some sundries.
As soon as it was early in the morning, Cao Caohua made breakfast for her mother-in-law and her, wrapped steamed buns, boiled porridge, and went to the street to buy some side dishes and desserts, and then went to Mingyu/outside the room to wake her up.
"Sister Yu'er, you should get up early, I have cooked the meal, just waiting for you to eat." She sent people to the fence, and her tone of voice was as low as possible, and there was no response in the house, so she stood at the door and waited.
After a while, Mingyu heard someone talking outside the house, so he responded casually, got up and put on his clothes, and when he opened the door, Cao Caohua was a little surprised.
Although it is not as exaggerated as unkempt, Mingyu's hair is scattered at this time, his clothes are full of wrinkles, his eyes are red, and he doesn't know how long he has been crying.
Cao Caohua felt a little pitiful in his heart, so he comforted him: "Sister, you can rest assured, Meng Daguan is definitely not a merciless person, if he doesn't encounter difficulties, he will definitely come back to you." “
Mingyu's eyes were red, tears hung in the corners of her eyes, she listened to Cao Caohua's words, she only felt wronged in her heart, she couldn't help but lie on Cao Caohua's shoulder, crying loudly, and said while crying: "Sister, why didn't Meng Lang bring a letter home for more than half a month?
Cao Caohua didn't know how to comfort her, just gently patted her back with her hand, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, and then helped her all the way to the dining room and sent her to the seat.
Even though Mingyu was very aggrieved, she couldn't lose her sense of proportion in front of outsiders, she sobbed to stop crying, her hands trembled and picked up the chopsticks, this bite of food was like chewing wax in her mouth, and when she swallowed it, it was like a fish in her throat, it was really difficult to swallow, not that the food was unpalatable, but that she was in the mood to eat at this time.
She just stood up, didn't think that Granny Wang would drop her chopsticks, and scolded: "I'm really angry! Meng Daguan has something, I only haven't seen you for half a month, so I miss you so much, since I'm afraid that he has something, why don't you go out to find it, what's the use of crying at home?"
Granny Wang's words were slightly inappropriate, don't say that what she said is ten to seven or eight, but also to worry about her sending people under the fence, and the meals she eats are still given by others, this time it is a little inappropriate, but there is no malice, but it is sincere, and hatred is not made of steel.
Cao Caohua saw that her mother-in-law was angry, so she hurriedly picked up vegetables for her, and whispered in her ear: "Mother-in-law, you shouldn't say this." “
Granny Wang sighed, her face softened, her tone was slightly sad, and she said: "You at least have a hope, but what about me, old woman? My son is dead, and I haven't even seen the last one, am I not worse than you? You sit down, and I will discuss with you in the long run." “
Mingyu only said that she was an old woman, where did she know what to find people, but because she was an elder, her son also died because of Mengfu, and she didn't like to listen to her, but she had to listen patiently to her a few words.
Mingyu sat beside Granny Wang, respectfully poured tea and water for her, and Granny Wang waved her hand again and again: "Girl, I know that you are of noble birth and look down on me and Caohua and other rural village women, but have you heard of the mountain people's own tricks?"
Mingyu hurriedly said: "No ......" Before she finished speaking, Granny Wang raised her hand to interrupt and said: "Child, Meng Daguan has been missing for more than half a month, less than a month, and he can't go to the Western Regions, let alone Fanbang and other countries, as well as all over the northwest, think about it carefully, where can Meng Daguan's evil foot go this month?"
Mingyu guessed carefully for a moment according to what Granny Wang said, but she couldn't guess that she had been in a trance for the past few days, and she hadn't recovered at this time, so she calmly guessed how to do it.
Ying'er is worried about her sister, afraid that she will fall into the devil's way, which will be difficult to do if she loses her mind and goes crazy, after all, she is such a relative, and she has to get her uncle back if she says anything.
After a while, Ying'er suddenly laughed, and everyone looked at her with puzzled expressions, Ying'er smiled: "Naturally, it is Jiangnan, the north is not as good as Daliao, the east is not as good as Fuzhou, and the west is not as good as Shudi, only the south is the closest." “
Mingyu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and then she was overshadowed, she said: "Jiangnan doesn't say that life is unfamiliar, and there are so many people in Jiangnan, how to find Meng Lang......"
Ying'er comforted: "If you look for it, you will find it sooner or later, at least it's better than if you don't look for it." “
She could only think about the benefits at the moment, she stared blankly at the door, hoping that Meng Kang would suddenly push the door and enter, and the two would meet again.
When Ying'er saw her in a daze, she hurriedly picked up the bowl and fed her porridge, Mingyu opened and closed her mouth in a daze, obviously in deep thought, and did not react at all.
Ying'er sighed and picked up vegetables for her, and fed her two or three bowls of porridge, Mingyu eased up and asked her to put down the dishes and chopsticks, but Ying'er was afraid that she would not be able to eat, so she hurriedly asked: "Are you full? ”,
Mingyu hadn't run out of water and rice for a long time, and after eating two bowls of porridge, his face eased a little, but he didn't even want to take a breath, so he stood up directly and said, "Go back to the room and pack up, and when I arrange the affairs, let's go." “
Ying'er was afraid that she would be tired, so she pressed her on the chair and said helplessly: "You can rest, I'll clean it up for you." He said that he would not eat, and turned to leave.
After Ying'er left, she turned her head to look at Cao Caohua suddenly, and grabbed her shoulders tightly with both hands.
Seeing this, Mingyu chuckled lightly and said, "Sister, don't panic, my little sister wants to ask you to help with the family business, and wait for the two of us to come back." “
Cao Caohua was a big deal, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sister, I'm a mountain villager, it's not difficult to just look at the house, you can rest assured to go." ”
