Chapter 8 The delay in returning
After Ah Kai and Sister Zhan got engaged, Granny Li ran on both sides, thinking about ending the marriage at the end of the year. The Yang family and the Zhan family also have this meaning, sooner or later they will get married, and Yang will not be this year.
And at this time, Dongfang Yu of the Dachang Empire issued a holy decree inviting all the adult men of the Yang family to Yancheng for the New Year.
After receiving this holy decree, Yang Feiyong brought his four sons over to see Yang Feiliang's family.
After lunch, a few principals approached the inner hall.
"Third brother, what do you mean by Oriental Fish?" Yang Feiliang asked.
Yang Feiyong looked at everyone, "I don't know very well, I didn't act rashly on my side, and there was no news from the south, so I wondered." ”
"As for Yan Cheng, there is no news from there. ”
"Then what should the third brother do?" Yang Feiliang asked again.
"I can only go to Yancheng, now the surveillance is stricter, if you want to run, there is only a dead end. Yang Feiyong paused, "I think it should just want to beat us, let's be honest and don't have any excessive ideas." Don't dare to kill us. ”
"Is there any news of the family of the eldest brother and the second brother?" asked Yang Feiliang.
"Not recently, the eldest brother's eldest son fled to Da Gengguo half a year ago, and now the situation is not clear for Yang. The others, I estimate that Yan Cheng may know about it, and I think Dongfang Yu also wants to tell us the unfortunate news of the eldest brother and the second brother. ”
"I don't know how long we will be detained, we adult men are out, and we don't know who will take care of them at home. Yang Feiliang said.
"What are you worried about, your family has always been headed by younger brothers and sisters, and I am only careful of my family. Yang Feiyong looked at Jia's family, "When the time comes, my younger brothers and sisters will definitely help take care of one or two." ”
"The third brother can afford it, I will do my best to keep the two families safe until you come back. Jia replied.
"Then we will prepare, and in two days there will be government officials who will come and escort us to Yancheng. ”
After Yang Feiyong and the others left, Yang Feiliang said to Jia: "If we have an accident, you must find a way to send a few children away, I know that you have always been in contact with your brother." ”
"Okay, I see, I'll wait for you to come back. Jia Shi thought for a moment and said,
"Ah Kai's wedding can only be postponed, and we will talk about it when you come back. ”
Two days later, the people from the government came, along with a local army. Departure with the adult man of the Yang family.
Jia quickly asked the second daughter-in-law to find Granny Li.
Jia explained to Granny Li, saying that the imperial court had something to summon a few people from the family to the capital, and it might take about a year to come back, and the marriage with the eldest sister of the Zhan family needed to be postponed for one to two years.
"I hope Granny Li will go and explain to the Zhan family, it's troublesome to my mother-in-law. Jia said in a pleading tone.
"Well, I've heard that it's not a bad thing to have an army go with you?" asked Granny Li.
"That's not it, before we came to Wencheng County, we also had to go to the palace every two or three years to celebrate the New Year. Jia replied.
"Since that's the case, then I'll tell the Zhan family first, see what they say, I hope they can understand. Granny Li said.
Granny Li left the Yang family and went to the Zhan family, and told the situation and the Zhan family, but in the end she didn't say anything, postponed the unification for a year, and talked about it a year later.
In this way, spring went to autumn, and in a blink of an eye it came to the next year, 985 years of the Taikang calendar.
Granny Li came to Yang's house again, waited for a long time, and finally met Jia's family.
"Ah Kai, Ah Kai, haven't they come back yet?" asked Granny Li.
"Yes, I'm also wondering, I sent them a letter, and I haven't replied yet, I guess it's too busy, the capital is the largest city in the mainland, with a population of 800,000, there are many officials, and there must be a lot of things, so it's normal to not be able to come back all at once. Jia replied.
"A few days ago, I passed through the East Village, and the daughter-in-law of the Zhan family met me and asked, has Ah Kai come back, is he coming back?" said the mother-in-law, "Their family is worried about whether Ah Kai has something happened in the capital, or has found her." ”
"Well, I'll go and explain it to the Zhan family myself. Thank you, mother-in-law. Jia said.
"That's fine, after all, you can say it more clearly and sincerely. Granny Li said helplessly.
The next day, Jia had lunch and took his daughter-in-law to Zhan's house. Along the way, everyone was speechless, and they didn't expect Ruyang to let the Zhan family believe in their sincerity.
The men didn't come back, what if they really didn't come back? Jia Shi also thought about this, so he couldn't delay them.
When the three of them arrived at Zhan's house, Zhan Yongyuan and Yang were there, and the eldest sister was also there.
"My in-laws are all at home, it's really annoying. Jia said.
"Where, we are happy if you can come, but if you don't come, I will not be comfortable. Zhan always said, "Sister, get some tea." ”
"Yes, Father. "The eldest sister went to make tea.
"Mother, when will Ah Kai come back?" asked Zhan Yong.
"This ,.......," Jia Shi didn't know how to say, "we are all family, so I'll tell you the truth," Jia Shi took a breath, "I don't know when they will come back, I went to many letters, and there was no reply." Jia Shi said helplessly.
"What is the question?" asked Zhan forever.
"Well,......" Jia Shi said, "I don't know what the reason is, and I really don't know, so I came to tell you today, I'm also afraid that Granny Li will be embarrassed, and it's not easy to talk about it." ”
"Then if Ah Kai never comes back, what will happen to my eldest sister?" Zhan Yong asked the third time.
"Well, I know you're going to have that question," said Jia, "and I didn't sleep all night last night, and I wondered how to answer this question, and in the end I didn't come up with a good answer. ”
"If it's true that Ah Kai didn't come back, I'm a little sure, Ah Kai will definitely not find other women in the capital, but he has encountered difficulties, and my Yang family has encountered difficulties. Jia Shi was a little sad, "If this is the case, it is also my Yang family who is sorry for the eldest sister." ”
"If the eldest sister is willing to wait for Ah Kai, my old lady will thank you, if you are not willing to wait, I will definitely not blame you," Jia Shi looked at the eldest sister and said.
"I ,......" the eldest sister has a hard time opening her mouth, I don't know how to answer, I said wait, there is a general hope, say don't wait, she is still satisfied with Ah Kai, Yang is engaged, as soon as she withdraws from the marriage, who will be willing to marry her eldest sister in the future, even if someone marries, I am afraid it will be an unreliable man.
The eldest sister looked at Zhan Yong.
"Hey......" Zhan Yong sighed, "Mother-in-law, I haven't been idle in the past year, and I have also gone out to inquire," looking at Jia Shi and said, "You two have asked Cheng County in the same year, are you here to take refuge?" ”
Jia Shi felt Zhan Yong's gaze, a little embarrassed to face it, she stood up, went to the door to look, went to the back room to look, after making sure that there was no one, said, "You two go out to see the door first, don't let people in, the eldest sister also go out, okay?"
The eldest sister looked at Zhan Yong.
"Let's get out first. Jen said forever.
"In-laws, I'll tell you the truth," Jia Shi took a sip of tea, "Our two families are the royal heirs of the Southern Daxing Dynasty thirty-two years ago, and Ah Kai's father, Yang Feiyong, is the fourth prince of the Daxing Dynasty. Looking at Zhan Yong's trembling hands, he continued, "After the Daxing Dynasty was defeated and destroyed by the coalition army, all four of our families were escorted to Yancheng, and the eldest and second have already received persecution, so we came to Yancheng and said that it was right to take refuge. ”
Jia Shi held on, she knew that although she only said a little, she was already very shocked.
Waited for a while. Zhan Yong only had a move, he knew that what Jia said must be true, she didn't need to lie to herself, because, he heard that Yang Feiyong's family had their own royal family, and when he heard Jia talk about it today, he knew that what was passed on was far from hearing the shock with his own ears.
