from the crane

Hearing someone calling him vaguely, Jiang Yin wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't open them. Someone put his hand on his forehead, and he heard Mr. Lin's voice.

"Don't open your eyes."

"Mr. Lin..."

The hoarse voice sounded a little strange. Jiang Yin wanted to get up, but Mr. Lin pushed him back, "Don't shed tears, or you won't be able to see for the rest of your life."

It was rare for Jiang Yin to be obedient. Mr. Lin turned his head and applied the prepared ointment on his eyelids, and then wrapped it with white silk in circles.

"Now there are still people who are raising blue spirit butterflies. It's really a big heart."

Jiang Yin felt his eyelids turn cold, and couldn't help asking, "Are my eyes okay?"

"Let's talk about it after recuperating for a while. The person who attacked you used the wings of the blue spirit butterfly to grind it into powder. You are lucky, otherwise you will only have two holes left."

Jiang Yin felt that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, and asked again, "Why is it so quiet?"

Mr. Lin raised his eyes to Jiang Yin, and said calmly, "A few days ago, the officials came and dragged all the people in the house out for interrogation."

"Interrogation? Haven't you already checked the books!"

Jiang Yin got up in a hurry, Mr. Lin frowned and knocked on his forehead, "Someone wrote a letter, asserting that the Jiang family killed the master of the Yu family, and the little emperor sent someone to investigate thoroughly. There have been guards outside the mansion for the past few days. .”

"Where's the fourth sister, is she okay?"

"Your fourth younger sister has gone back to Liu's house. Now you can rest in peace of mind. I will take care of the Jiang family's affairs for you." Mr. Lin got up and left, leaving only Jiang Yin in the room. The wound was extremely painful, and I tried to turn over but couldn't move.

There was darkness in front of his eyes, and the scenes that happened before came back to his mind, Jiang Yin felt that his heart was hurting to death, and he wanted to sleep but couldn't.

There were no other sounds in his ears, and at this moment he suddenly felt that he was not falling into the river valley with Luo Shuang.

Luo Shuang...

Jiang Yin read it over and over again in her heart, but no one responded. The sense of loss was exaggerated. Jiang Yin shook her head, trying to forget it temporarily, but those memories came to her again.

The eyes were a little sore, Jiang Yin came back to his senses suddenly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, she was an angry girl.

"Does it still hurt?"

When he heard Yang Pan's voice, Jiang Yin opened his mouth and said in a low voice, "It hurts like hell."

"I didn't expect this to happen. I'm sorry." Yang Pan sat beside him and said sincerely, "If you are angry, hit me."

"I don't want to hit you." Jiang Yin sighed softly, and said, "Talk to me for a while."

"I can't accompany you, Liu Yi'an wants to turn my sister into ashes, I'm going to watch him." Yang Pan looked at Jiang Yin's eyes covered by white silk, with a little apology, "I was too reckless, I could have waited You came back and told you."

Jiang Yin suddenly lost the strength to talk, he nodded silently, and heard Yang Pan's footsteps leaving.

The room became quiet again, Jiang Yin tilted his head, but couldn't hear anything.

This year's first snow came early, and it passed overnight, covered in snow.

Jiang Yao pulled the axis, looked up, the kite was flying higher and higher, the axis had been exhausted, before she had time to show off, Jiang Yao tripped over a stone, Jiang Yin stepped forward to help her up, she stuck out her tongue and said playfully , "I just wanted to ask you to take a look, but I stumbled."

Before Jiang Yin could speak, a servant boy came, and the smile on Jiang Yao's face disappeared, seeing her brother leave quickly.

I haven't seen Jiang Yin smile since the riding and archery competition. Although the injury is healed, there seems to be a wound in my heart that will never heal.

She heard from her second brother that a few days ago he passed out drunk by the pool, weeping uncontrollably, Mr. Lin punished him to kneel outside to copy the scriptures, and the next day he caught wind and cold and had a high fever.

It was just better today, Jiang Yao wanted to make him smile, but Jiang Yin lacked interest, so she didn't know what to do.

When she was depressed, she suddenly remembered Jiang Yin's birthday, so she had another idea and strode to find Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei was about to leave home, but was stopped by Jiang Yao, he got off his horse and said after listening to her, "I'm going back to Yingzhou, I won't wait till fifteen."

"I don't care, you have to stay."

Jiang Yao frowned, but Jiang Wei was not used to this trick, he gently pushed Jiang Yao away, and before leaving, he did not forget to tell him, "Tell your third brother to drink less, so as not to be scolded by Mr. Lin."

"Bad brother."

Jiang Yao muttered a few words, and suddenly saw a familiar face when she looked up. She finally breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and said happily, "Sister Aruina!"

Arina was also a little surprised when she saw Jiang Yao. It’s been a long time since she met Jiang Yao. This little girl has grown a lot taller. Think of the banquet as a surprise for Jiang Yin."

Jiang Yao smiled and nodded, then looked at the carriages behind Ariana and asked, "The third brother said you went to the Western Regions, is it fun?"

"I'm here for business, not for fun." Ariana smiled, and said again, "It's just porcelain calligraphy and paintings, not something valuable."

After chatting with Aruina for a long time, Jiang Yao hurried back to Liu's house. Just as she entered the door, she saw Liu Yi'an fiddling with something. It was only when she stepped forward that she saw clearly that it was a sandalwood box.

"Go to Jiang's house to celebrate my third brother's birthday in a few days." Jiang Yao whispered to him, Liu Yi'an looked up at her and nodded, "Your third brother is okay."

"Same as usual." Jiang Yao looked at the sandalwood box and asked again, "When will you send the ashes back to Jinzhou?"

Liu Yi'an was stunned for a moment, twitching the corner of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I'll take her back after I capture that person."

"You..." Jiang Yao hesitated for a while, but still said, "Ye Luo returns to his roots, don't be too selfish."

"I know." Liu Yi'an bowed his head and said nothing, Jiang Yao shrugged and left here quickly.

The lights were brightly lit, and during the Lantern Festival, Jiang Yin rested his chin and stared at the brocade box in front of him. The ink had dried up, and there were a lot of muddled accounts on the ledger, but he hadn't corrected them yet.

Luo Zhu sent him the newly made winter clothes this morning, and it took Xiuniang two months to make the bamboo-patterned gown. Jiang Yin stared at the clothes in a daze, but sighed softly.

People are long gone...

Feeling restless, when he really wanted to copy the scriptures again, there was a knock on the door. Jiang Yin raised his eyes, and saw Jiang Yao coming to him with a smile, and said very well, "Third brother, come with me."

Jiang Yin followed her out of the room, but when she came to the lobby, she was taken aback. Seeing his reaction, Jiang Yao couldn't help laughing. When she pulled him to sit down, the astonishment on Jiang Yin's face hadn't subsided.

"Brother Jiang was frightened into a fool?" Yu Wucuo looked at him with a smile, Jiang Yin came back to his senses, and also smiled, "I didn't expect..."

"Today is your birthday, you should drink three big whites!" Liu Yi'an pushed the wine glass in front of Jiang Yin, and Aruina poured wine for him with the wine glass.

"Ariana, long time no see." Jiang Yin saw that Ariana's voice was a little weird, but he quickly adjusted his mood, stood up and said to everyone, "If you don't get drunk, you won't return!"

She drank the wine in one gulp, the spicy feeling irritated her throat, Jiang Yin took one glass after another, seemingly absent-minded, Aruina looked at Jiang Yin's side face, and said softly, "Is there something that's bothering you?"

Jiang Yin's eyes were full of sadness, but he was still smiling. He couldn't bear to spoil Jiang Yao's kindness, and the grief in his heart was suppressed. Seeing him so distressed, Arina changed his wine for tea .

"Drunkenness only makes grief worse."

"I just……"

Jiang Yin looked at Jiang Yao, and found that the latter was busy playing with others, so he brought Ariana to the door.

"How can I forget someone?" Jiang Yin looked at her sadly, Aruina was stunned, and couldn't help laughing, "Why do you ask that?"

"I think I'm going crazy, Ariana..." Jiang Yin closed her eyes and said in a low voice, "I always have nightmares, dreaming that he is gone, no matter what I do, I always think of him, you Do you understand that feeling? Even though that person is gone, I still call his name subconsciously."

"The man is gone, you have to learn to accept it." Ariana seemed to feel that these words were a bit cruel, and said again, "I don't know how to comfort you, but you can't always be like this."

"It's easy to say...you know, what I said to him before, and the things I experienced tortured me every second, and I'm like a twitchy girl..."

Jiang Yin lowered his head and stopped talking. Ariana rubbed his hair and said softly, "Come with me to relax. I'll take you to the Western Regions. Elena has always wanted to see you..."

"Why are you pulling sister Arina to whisper?" Liu Yi'an came to Jiang Yin with a glass of wine, Arina gave him a wink, he patted Jiang Yin on the shoulder, and explained, "Don't be too sad , People live in the world, but life and death, a long tent built thousands of miles, there is no banquet that never ends, and farewell to the willows on the Baqiao, it is inevitable to experience."

"You can see it openly." Jiang Yin frowned at him, Liu Yi'an smiled, and laughed at himself, "After all, I hurt her, and I will pay her back this debt sooner or later."

"You young men, don't get trapped by yourself."

Ariana sighed and got up to leave, Liu Yian put down his glass and said seriously, "Is there any news about your elder brother?"

Jiang Yin shook his head, and replied, "Mr. An also sent someone to investigate, but there is no news, I'm afraid..."

"I got a piece of news a few days ago, it's about your elder brother, will you listen?"

Jiang Yin was taken aback when he heard this, and asked blankly, "What's the matter?"

"They said that your elder brother was kidnapped by those Qiang relatives and became the princess' son-in-law."

"what?"

Jiang Yin's face changed, and he was about to get angry, Liu Yi'an hurriedly stopped him and said, "Calm down, these are just rumors in the market."

"It's so boring, don't tell me these things in the future." Jiang Yin frowned and cursed a few words, and said, "Qiang's relatives are quiet now, and there is no big event brewing, let's give the little emperor a surprise. "

"You'd better look forward to it, look at the current state of the Jiang family." Liu Yi'an patted Jiang Yin and got up to leave. Jiang Yin looked at the hustle and bustle of lights outside the door, and suddenly remembered the problem with Luo Shuang.

Will the gods grant wishes?

will it...

Jiang Yin got up and walked out, the dragon dance team passed in front of him.

The dragon made of thousands of lanterns seems to be alive with the movement of the crowd. Jiang Yin's face is illuminated by the orange light. Tong Yin recited an all-too-familiar poem.

On the first night of last year, the lights of the flower market were like daytime, and the willows were on the moon, and people made an appointment after dusk.

On the first night of this year, the moon and the lamp are still there, but no one from last year is seen, and the sleeves of the spring shirt are wet with tears.
