Chapter 225 Acacia
Just when the two of them lamented the impermanence of life, Yun Qiumeng jumped in with a vegetable basket, "Brother-in-law, we are going to leave for the Snow God Palace in the near future, I want to buy some souvenirs for my sister to take back, you can accompany me to the market!"
Looking at the smiling look on her face, Gu Huaiyan really couldn't bear to refuse. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info Although he didn't like to stay too long in a bustling and noisy place, he nodded in agreement, "Well, it's fine. ”
Qu Zongrong couldn't help but mutter: "Huaiyan, you are so good to your sister-in-law...... If you are half as good as Luo Hua is to her, I am afraid that Luo Hua will wake up laughing even from a dream!"
Although Gu Huaiyan ignored Qu Zongrong, he knew it very well in his heart, because Yun Qiumeng was Liu Yanxue's sister, and he did all this for Liu Yanxue.
Of course, this is inseparable from Yun Qiumeng's lively and lovely personality, and she admires herself so much, Gu Huaiyan naturally treats her better and better.
It happened that Jin Di and his wife came here to deliver food to Qu Zongrong, and when they heard that Gu Yun and the others were going to go shopping in the market, Yun Qiaozi took the opportunity to ask: "Auntie, can you go to the dumb mother-in-law's house in the small hut north of the market for me to deliver some things?"
Yun Qiumeng asked curiously, "Dumb mother-in-law, who is she?"
Yun Qiaozi said: "The dumb mother-in-law was killed when she was young and went to Liaocheng, and Grandmother Jin Di took her in when she saw that she was pitiful. Having said that, Jin Di's grandmother has been dead for a long time, and the dumb mother-in-law is also in her eighties this year. But her physique has never been very good, and her temper is even more eccentric...... She drove back all those who had been sent to serve her.
She barely gives anyone a good face but me...... But my father-in-law is a little unwell today, and I'm afraid I won't be able to see my dumb mother-in-law, so I have to bother my aunt to go for me. ”
Yun Qiumeng immediately agreed: "It's not a problem!"
Yun Qiaozi said very gratefully: "Aunt Fulao bought some cuttlefish soup and walnut cheese for me to send, you just need to tell the dumb mother-in-law that Miss Yun asked you to send these, and she will accept them." ”
The so-called matter of being entrusted by people to be loyal to people, Gu Yun and the others bought a whole basket of cuttlefish soup and walnut cheese after arriving at the market. On the way from the market to the small thatched hut, Yun Qiumeng ate all the way, "Brother-in-law, this cuttlefish soup and walnut cheese are delicious! Let's bring some back to my sister, she will definitely like it!"
Gu Huaiyan touched her head and smiled: "Count your little girl with a conscience!"
When they were still some distance from the hut, they heard a rapid cough coming from inside. Slowly walking into the hut, I saw an old woman with gray hair and a hunched waist.
Although the thatched hut was full of daily necessities sent by Yun Qiaozi, they were placed in a disorderly manner, and it was obvious that the old lady did not care much about these things.
Looking around, the overwhelming loneliness and loneliness swept in an instant.
Yun Qiu Mengdeng's heart softened, and he hurriedly stepped forward and thoughtfully stroked the old woman's back and asked, "Are you uncomfortable?"
Unexpectedly, her hand touched the old woman's back, and the old woman pushed it away with her hand. Although she was babbling and couldn't speak, Yun Qiumeng read disgust and fear in her eyes.
Gu Huaiyan hurriedly handed over the basket, "This is cuttlefish soup and walnut cheese, which Miss Yun asked us to send to you." ”
Hearing this, the old woman fell silent. I saw her snatch the basket from Gu Huaiyan's hand, and then quietly squatted in the corner and buried her head in eating snacks.
Gu Huaiyan asked Yun Qiumeng softly: "It seems that she really doesn't like to come into contact with people, are we disturbing her?" Now that the things have been delivered, let's leave as soon as possible!"
Yun Qiumeng nodded and said, "It's all here, it's better to clean up the house for the old man and leave!"
It doesn't matter if it's cleaned up, Gu Huaiyan actually found two pictures in a crooked small cabinet. One picture is printed with the pattern of a maple-dyed sword, and the other picture is vividly depicted with the grand scene of Yunjiabao.
Gu Huaiyan hurriedly handed the two paintings to Yun Qiumeng, "Meng'er, isn't this your father's maple dyed sword? At the beginning, your brother used this sword to compete with me in the back garden of Yunjiabao, and the other picture drawn on it is clearly the main gate of your Yunjiabao." ”
Yun Qiumeng was stunned for a moment, and then walked up to the old woman with the two pictures and asked, "Dumb mother-in-law...... Why do you have these two pictures?"
As she spoke, she held up the picture with the maple dye pattern in her hand, "The pattern printed on it is from my grandfather's maple dyed sword, do you know him? If so, you just nod, okay?"
Two lines of tears suddenly flowed from the old woman's cloudy eyes, and she slowly put down the snack in her hand and wrote a big "Hang" on the ground.
Yun Qiumeng pointed to that word excitedly and said: "This is my grandfather's name, because my great-grandmother is from Hangzhou, so I named my grandfather 'Chuhang'." ”
At the mention of Yun Chuhang, the old woman silently took out a silk handkerchief from her arms and handed it to Yun Qiumeng, and kept gesturing Yun Qiumeng to keep it.
After Yun Qiumeng spread out the silk handkerchief, he found that it was embroidered with a lifelike lotus and a small poem engraved next to it: Enter my lovesick door, know that I am lovesick, long-term lovesickness, and short-term lovesickness are infinite.
When he turned to the back of the silk handkerchief, the expression on Yun Qiumeng's face was even more surprised, "This ...... This is my grandfather's handwriting, with the mantra of the Flying Phoenix written in charcoal...... But why is it only the first half?"
Gu Huaiyan asked in disbelief, "Are you sure this is your grandfather's handwriting?
Yun Qiumeng immediately took out the sword book and compared it with the words on the silk handkerchief, "Sure enough, it is my grandfather's handwriting, but I still don't understand why my grandfather wrote the mantra of the flying phoenix on this silk handkerchief, and it is only the upper half." I don't understand how this silk handkerchief got into the hands of the dumb mother-in-law. ”
With a stomach full of doubts, Yun Qiumeng leaned over and squatted down beside the old woman and asked, "Dumb mother-in-law, are you good friends with my grandfather, right? ”
The old woman moved her fingers, but she only wrote the four big words, "Let's go."
Yun Qiumeng tried to ask for the whereabouts of the second half of the formula, but the old woman stood up from the ground violently, and then grabbed Yun Qiumeng's arm like a frenzy and pushed her out.
After driving Yun Qiumeng away, the old woman threw the snacks in the basket on Gu Huaiyan, and pointed to the door with her teeth and claws to signal him to leave here.
Considering the old woman's emotions, Gu Yun and the others had to leave first.
On the way back, Yun Qiumeng always held on to the silk handkerchief and refused to let go, "Brother-in-law, what do you say this dumb mother-in-law has to do with my grandfather?
After pondering for a moment, Gu Huaiyan replied: "Your grandfather has passed away for so long, and this dumb mother-in-law can still keep the silk handkerchief so well, I think it must be your grandfather's best friend, otherwise he would not have handed over such an important thing to the dumb mother-in-law." As for the second half of the formula, if it is really in the hands of this dumb mother-in-law, she should give it to you. Since she didn't give it to you, maybe she doesn't know about it at all!"
After walking for a while with a restless heart, Yun Qiumeng suddenly felt someone rubbing her shoulder, "Who, scare me!"
When she turned to look, all her worries were swept away in an instant, replaced by unconcealable joy and enthusiasm, "Night Stalker, why are you! Did my brother ask you to come to me?
As if he understood Yun Qiumeng's question, Night Owl Ji nodded her head twice.
Then, Yun Qiumeng pulled Gu Huaiyan's sleeve with great excitement and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, let me introduce you, this is my brother's mount, Night Owl Ji! Its personality is very docile, and it will emit a silver-white light from its body at night, and the breed is the Night Jade Lion, which is the best among the horses!"
After listening to Yun Qiumeng's introduction, Gu Huaiyan stretched out his hand and gently stroked the body of the horse and praised: "It is indeed a good horse!" It is rumored that Wu Yun, the Marquis of Nanyang during the Sui Dynasty, summoned his young son to retire from the master and apprentice, and it was this horse that single-handedly killed the heavy encirclement. ”
Yun Qiumeng smiled: "As soon as my horse was stolen by Baili Luohua, the Night Owl Ji came to me...... Brother-in-law, do you think this is providential?"
Gu Huaiyan nodded and said, "So you don't need to worry too much about the second half of the formula, maybe it will suddenly appear in front of you one day." ”
Yun Qiumeng naughtily stuck out her tongue at Gu Huaiyan, "What my brother-in-law said is right!"
At this moment, the crowd in the market suddenly ran in the same direction, and even Jin Di and his wife were among them.
Under careful questioning, the two learned that it was the dumb mother-in-law who committed suicide by jumping into the river.
This news was like a muffled thunderbolt on the heads of Gu Yun and the others, especially Yun Qiumeng, she still couldn't believe that it was true.
"How could it be? When my brother-in-law and I went to deliver snacks to her, everything was fine, why didn't I suddenly think about jumping into the river......
Gu Huaiyan, who was also surprised, said softly: "Let's go over and have a look!"
When everyone rushed to the river, the old woman's body happened to be salvaged, and Yun Qiaozi rushed over as soon as possible, "Mother-in-law...... Open your eyes and look at me, I'm a cloud girl!"
Yun Qiumeng slowly squatted down to her side and patted her shoulder, "Qiaozi, don't be too sad...... Maybe the dumb mother-in-law just wants to take advantage of this, but the boundless loneliness and loneliness!"
At this time, the sharp-eyed Gu Huaiyan suddenly noticed that the old woman seemed to be holding something in her hand. Everyone thought it was her last words, and when they broke her hand, they found that it was a crumpled note. Although the handwriting on it was soaked with water, it was not difficult to see that it was a small line of poetry.
Sauvignon Blanc is long and remembrance, and Sauvignon Blanc is infinite.
