admiration

The two quarreled for a whole day, and after night fell, they reluctantly returned home. When they approached the door, they saw an old woman sitting outside the door, her head hanging down, as if she had fallen asleep.

Looking at the figure, it seems to be an acquaintance.

Xiao Zhijin walked over, patted her shoulder lightly, and said, "Grandma Ren?"

The old man had a light dream and woke up immediately. When he saw the two of them came back, he immediately stood up and said with a smile, "I'm finally back. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhijin asked.

"It's okay, I heard you guys came back, so I quickly cooked some dishes and brought them here." Granny Ren said, and handed Xiao Zhijin a food box.

Xiao Zhijin was a little surprised, so he quickly took it and said, "Thank you, Granny Ren, I have to trouble you even though it's so late."

"No trouble, no trouble, I have been taken care of by your parents these past few years, and my old bones have survived until now." Granny Ren smiled, and took Mo Yichi's hand again, saying: "Chi'er, you have lost weight Ah, how are you living in the palace?"

Seeing her red eyes, Mo Yanchi choked up her heart and said, "Okay, everything is fine."

"That's good, that's good." Granny Ren lowered her head and wiped her tears.

She was widowed in her early years and never remarried. When she was sad, she would bring some food to the children in the school as a way of expressing comfort.The children's parents also know how to repay their kindness and take care of them from time to time. Because Granny Ren lives close to Xiao and Mo's family, the relationship is naturally deeper.

Mo Yanchi likes to hear strange things, and often goes to Granny Ren to listen to stories, and Granny Ren loves him extremely.

"I was thinking of looking for you tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come here." Mo Yanchi supported Granny Ren's hand, and said, "I'll take you back, we can catch up on the old days tomorrow, okay?"

Granny Ren waited for a long time, and was a little tired, so she didn't stop, nodded and smiled, "Okay, I'll cook something delicious for you tomorrow."

Xiao Zhijin didn't follow, looking at Mo Yanchi's slightly bent back, his heart felt warm.

Watching the two leave, Xiao Zhijin opened the door and entered the room, lit the candles, and was about to put the food in the food box on the table when he saw a letter lying quietly on the table.

Xiao Zhi kissed him personally.

It's Jiang Wan's word.

He was a little puzzled by Jiang Wan's letter at this time, so he opened the letter after putting down the food box.

When Mo Yanchi came back after seeing Granny Ren off, Xiao Zhijin still kept reading the letter with a solemn expression.

He closed the door, walked over and asked, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Zhi regained consciousness, took a deep breath, and handed the letter to Mo Yanchi: "In a few days... let's go back to Beijing."

Mo Yanchi was puzzled, and looked down at the letter. He thought it was sent by Xing Yan, but the handwriting was delicate and soft, completely different from the previous scribbles. It was obviously not written by the same person. After reading the signature, this Only then did I realize it was written by Jiang Wan.

At the beginning of the letter, there was only a few greetings, and then Jiang Wan talked about her own life experience. It turned out that Jiang Wan's mother, Jiang Yan, was originally named Nie Qingqing, and she was the daughter of Nie Cheng. She was taken away more than ten years ago and sold to Jiang. Tongda, from then on began the days of unbearable pain.

Some handwriting on the paper was blurred, as if it had been wet by water droplets when writing.

Jiang Wan didn't mention the fact that she was sold into a brothel, she only talked about the little hope that Jiang Yan kept in her madness, and finally died of hatred.

Mo Yanchi read the second page with trembling hands. The first page was to open up his deeply buried wound, and the other page was Jiang Wan's determination to take revenge to the death.

Jiang Wan managed to get in touch with Nie Cheng, but Nie Cheng still didn't know that the daughter he had loved for so long was actually a fake, and Jiang Wan didn't intend to tell Nie Cheng at this time, she hadn't seen the tragedy that led to her and Jiang Yan's life. Concubine Jing, how could she let it go.

It's just that Jiang Wan was suppressed by Dai Yan today, and she had to tell Xiao Zhijin about her life experience several times, not because she wanted Xiao Zhijin to help her, but because she was afraid that if she died, this secret would disappear forever up.

Whether it is suffering or disaster, Jiang Wan still hopes that this past will be made public one day.

Mo Yanchi read it, raised his hand and burned the letter, Xiao Zhijin was a little surprised, and stretched out his hand to stop it.

"Burn it, let Jiang Wan talk about these things." Mo Yanchi said.

Xiao Zhijin nodded and let go of his hand.

Having known Mo Yan for so long, Xiao Zhijin would scold himself if he didn't understand what he meant.It's not that Mo Yichi doesn't help, but he hopes that Jiang Wan can survive and wait for that day to come.

Xiao Zhijin sighed deeply again, not knowing who or what he was sighing for.

For Jiang Wan to write this letter, she must have made the determination to die.Jiang Wan is not good at asking Xiao Zhijin for help, but no matter what his starting point is, Xiao Zhijin can't just sit idly by.

It was clear that they left Beijing, and the two of them were about to enter Beijing again.

At night, Mo Yanchi slept on the outside of the bed, tossing and turning, still unable to fall asleep, seeing the bright moonlight outside, he simply put on his clothes and got up, turned over to the eaves to look at the moon.

The evening breeze is slightly cool, not as warm as in the house, but it is very refreshing, making people drowsy.

He rested his arms on his pillow, closed his eyes, and planned to sleep like this all night, but unexpectedly, the sky didn't come true, so he lay down for a while, when the sky, which was still full of moonlight just now, was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and there was a patter of rain.

Mo Yanchi realized it was raining after being drenched for a few minutes, and hurriedly hid in the house again.

Xiao Zhijin, who had been listening to the commotion outside, turned his back on Mo Yanchi and laughed.

Mo Yanchi gritted his teeth and walked over, took off his coat, lay down on Xiao Zhijin's body, and said angrily, "What are you laughing at?"

"What do you think I'm laughing at?" Xiao Zhijin hid under the blanket, exposing himself with his trembling body.

Mo Yanchi threw off the quilt, held him down, and said, "Stop laughing, or I'll beat you up."

"Okay, don't laugh, Your Highness, please forgive me." Xiao Zhijin raised his eyebrows, and put his hands on Mo Yichi's waist naturally, feeling the warmth of his palms, he sighed again.

The originally good elegance was completely disturbed by the rain. After some tossing, Mo Yanchi became more energetic. Seeing that Xiao Zhijin didn't feel sleepy, he asked, "When are we going back to Beijing?"

"Whatever, Xing Yan will watch over Jiang Wan. If you don't want to leave, you can stay for a few more days." Xiao Zhizhi said.

Mo Yanchi: "It's not that I have to stay here, it's just... I simply don't want to go back to Beijing."

Xiao Zhijin hugged him, and said: "It's okay, you will live in my house when the time comes, otherwise it's fine if people know."

Hearing this, Mo Yanchi clenched his fist and hammered Xiao Zhijin's stomach, and said, "Are you planning to hide your beauty in a golden house?"

"...Subordinates don't dare." Although he didn't dare, he still thought about it.

Mo Yanchi laughed, leaning over Xiao Zhijin's body and laughing non-stop, the poor Xiao Zhijin didn't move or stay still, it was extremely tormented.In order not to have an accident, he pushed Mo Yanchi down, and began to face the wall and think about his mistakes.

No one knows his ghostly thoughts, Mo Yichi only thought that he was getting angry from embarrassment, and after laughing for a while, he stretched out his hand to poke his back, and said softly, "Brother Jin?"

Xiao Zhijin closed his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to him, but Mo Yanchi thought he was asleep, so he lightly made up the quilt, covered him, and slipped in himself, hesitating for a long time, stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his waist, Falling asleep with him.

Xiao Zhijin's breathing suddenly became chaotic, and thoughts that he had never dared to have filled his mind at this moment.

……

When he woke up the next day, Mo Yanchi was still in a deep sleep, with his hands on Xiao Zhijin's body, not at all defensive.

Xiao Zhijin was already awake, but now he was not disturbed by court affairs, so he hugged someone half asleep and half awake, and spent most of the day until even Mo Yichi woke up, then he got up to look for food.

There is a morning market in the village, and hawkers selling steamed buns often come here to set up a stall, so the two went there, bought some at random, and ate them while walking.

The two of them had made a decision. They would leave for Beijing tomorrow. The villages on the left and right were not big, so two days of strolling around would be enough to firmly remember it.

To Mo Yanchi's surprise, in the past two days, apart from Grandma Ren, I have not met any acquaintances. After asking, I found out that there was a plague of locusts before, and everyone ran to take refuge in front of the battle. After that, they settled there Oh, and the ones who came after were all new faces.

"I don't know what it will look like next time I come here." Mo Yanchi was deeply moved.

Xiao Zhijin said: "I don't think it will change."

Looking at the hometown, looking at the hometown.

The memory of several generations is carried here, and even future generations will not change it easily.

Mo Yanchi smiled, and suddenly found a stall selling lanterns, so he went over to buy a few, and planned to go to the forest to play with lanterns at night.

Xiao Zhijin looked up at the sky, and saw that the sky was clear, so he didn't intend to pour Mo Yanchi cold water on it.

The two teenagers didn't have the meticulous thoughts of the girls, and they just walked around casually when they went shopping. After buying some food and playing, they felt bored and went home early.

Mo Yan held back for three years, but he was willing to stay in the house obediently, put down the lanterns and slipped out, intending to find Granny Ren.Xiao Zhijin originally wanted to go together, but he missed Jiang Wan in his heart, so he left alone to watch the house, and wrote a letter for someone to take back to her.

He folded the letter and was about to wash the pen and ink when he saw the lantern he had just bought, so he drew a few strokes on it and wrote some small characters.

May you be happy.

May you know my heart.

It must be a sunny day at night.

Xiao Zhi washed his pen and ink, went to his home to find a few books, and returned to Mo's house.

Mo Yichi hadn't seen Granny Ren for several years, and she missed her very much. The two sat together and chatted, unknowingly, for the whole afternoon. won't stop.

Granny Ren originally wanted to stay with Mo Yichi to eat, but she was worried that Xiao Zhijin, the housekeeper, would also be hungry, so she cooked a few dishes and asked Mo Yichi to take them away.

Mo Yanchi didn't refuse, and after solemnly taking his leave, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Granny Ren is in good health, but after all she is an elderly person who can't stand the stimulation, Mo Yanchi didn't want to leave without saying goodbye again, making her worry again, he stopped in his tracks, turned around and said: "Grandma, we have to go back tomorrow. It's Beijing."

"So fast." Granny Ren was surprised and her tone was lonely.

Mo Yanchi nodded and said, "Well, when I'm settled down, I'll take you to Beijing, right?"

Granny Ren was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, Granny is waiting for you."

"Then we'll be leaving tomorrow, mother-in-law is waiting for me." Mo Yanchi waved his hand and left anyway.After walking for a long time, he turned his head and saw a long and narrow figure under the red lantern.
