[The Legend of Mulan] Daughter Love

At three quarters of the hour, the whole body blood of the human body will travel to the fingers at this time after running for a week. Soaking hands at this time can make the hands of embroidered women more flexible and flexible.It is an honor for the embroidered women of Wufeng Valley to soak their hands in Tianxingtang, and only those with outstanding craftsmanship are allowed to come here.

There are no less than a hundred households in Zhihu Xiuzhuang in Wufeng Valley, and no more than 20 people can soak their hands in Tianxingtang.The space in the main hall is limited, and there are two rows of mahogany table frames one and a half feet wide and square on the left and right sides, and ordinary copper basins are placed on them, which are used by ordinary embroidered women.There are silver basins on the two table frames in the middle. They symbolize higher honors and are used by experienced embroiderers who wash their hands in silver basins.I remember that more than three years ago, these two positions belonged to Si Niang of Jinxiu Villa and Jia Yun of Huaerjin.There is also a gold basin on the table frame in the middle of the front, which should not have been used for more than ten years.

Zhiqing looked at the Tianxing Hall, only to hear a deep voice next to her ears: "Concentrate, meditate..." A pair of slender hands flexed their muscles and bones and slowly soaked into the potion in the basin.

This movement was so familiar, her memory told her that she was also one of the embroidered women who soaked her hands in Tianxingtang, and she was eligible to be here when she was 12 years old.There are only four positions in each row on both sides of the main hall, with the south facing the entrance as the criterion, the left is first and the right is the last, one order, the position of the embroidered women also shows the time when they entered the Tianxing hall.I remember that she was standing on the left side of the main hall, which is now on the right hand side, but a few years have passed, new people have changed, and now there are both familiar faces and some unfamiliar faces.Time flies, I don't know how many people can remember her now...

All the embroidered girls were soaking their hands intently, Chunsi quietly raised her eyes to look at Luo Zhao, and happened to see a girl standing outside the door.She was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a beautiful face. Chunsi's eyes had been missed, but she immediately turned back in shock, and took a closer look. That face——

Ten years ago, she knelt outside Luoshen Manor for a day and a night before Grandpa Babeican agreed to take her in. Since then, they have been together day and night, inseparable.Chunsi believed that she would not be mistaken, this person is Zhiqing, she... she is back.

A pair of big hands waved in front of her eyes, Luo Zhao laughed jokingly and said, "What are you thinking, so engrossed?"

Chunsi's thoughts were pulled back, and she looked at the person in front of her in a daze, "Doctor Luo, what's wrong?"

"I asked you what you were thinking about so preoccupied? Look, everyone has already left after soaking their hands." Luo Zhao shook his head helplessly and pointed, "Your hands are still soaked in the potion."

Chunsi was startled, quickly took out her hand, and hurriedly looked outside the door, the girl who was standing there just now was gone.She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and said goodbye to Luo Zhao, and hurriedly left Tianxingtang.

Walking on the street, Chunsi felt more and more uneasy the more he walked, and all he could think about was the past.Eighth Grandpa is a lonely and arrogant person. Although he took her in, he did not accept her as a disciple. He has always been indifferent to others. Fortunately, there is Zhiqing. They eat and live together. Even the basic skills of weaving and embroidery were taught by Zhiqing , although she was two years older, but most of the time it was Zhiqing who helped her and took care of her.But that year, Grandpa Eight suffered from a coughing habit, and they went to the woods to pick mint leaves for Grandpa Eight, and they agreed to split up and find someone to meet outside the forest.But when she came out, she encountered a caravan of barbarians passing by. Some of them were from Rouran or Gaoche, and they walked towards her with malicious intentions. She was afraid and ran into the woods to hide stand up.Those people chased into the woods and saw Zhiqing, and kidnapped her.

At that time, she was so scared that she forgot to shout, and watched Zhiqing being taken away.She didn't dare to go home, and only limped back to Luoshen Manor when it was getting late.She told Grandpa Eight that she accidentally rolled down the hillside and got separated from Zhiqing, and asked if Zhiqing had come back, Grandpa Eight was in a hurry and ran to report to the county magistrate, but the people from the county government searched all night but couldn't find him .Later, I heard that some people in the neighboring counties also lost their daughters. It was a caravan going to the Western Regions. The eighth grandfather asked people to go to the border and go to the grasslands to look for them.But the eighth grandfather's health is getting worse and worse, and he has hardly walked outside in the past few years.

Now that Zhiqing is back, should she tell Grandpa Eight?Chunsi wasn't sure if Zhiqing saw anything back then, and if she would bear a grudge against herself, as long as she thought about the scene at that time, her heart felt as if a thorn was pricking her.

Zhiqing wandered from Fengming Street back to Fengqi Street. She didn't know if it was because of her closeness to her hometown. She was a little afraid to go back to Luoshen Manor. In her memory, her grandfather with gray hair and always serious and serious face was still there.She didn't even dare to inquire about the situation of Luoshen Manor, and wandered aimlessly on the street alone with her burden on her back.

Several caravans from the Western Regions entered the city, with a large number of horses and goods, Fengqi Street suddenly became very crowded.

Zhiqing was looking at clay figurines and small jewelry by the side of the road, when she was bumped by someone suddenly, she turned her head and saw that the person was about to fall, so she quickly put her hands on him to support him.

"Mom, are you okay?" A girl in blue came over, looked at her mother nervously, and said to Zhiqing in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I was busy playing, so I didn't take care of my mother." , hit you."

"Look how careless you are." The woman glanced at her daughter reproachfully, then patted Zhiqing's hand, "Thank you very much."

Zhiqing smiled and shook her head, then watched the mother and daughter turn around and leave. They were Huaerjin's Mulan and Aunt Yun.In the past, she often knits embroidery with Mulan, Fuling, and Chunsi. The former hometown and the former people are all in front of her eyes, but her mood is complicated, with a kind of inexplicable familiarity and strangeness.The sense of familiarity is due to memory, and the sense of strangeness is due to her.

Just as she was leaving the spot, Mulan turned her head to look for the figure who had helped them just now, but the street was full of people, and the girl in blue clothes had disappeared.Not far from Jiekou to Hua'erjin, Mulan thought all the way and followed her mother to the door of the house, and suddenly stopped.

"Why don't you leave?" Jia Yun looked back at Mulan when he entered the door.

Mulan frowned and raised her head, "Mother, didn't you think that girl looked familiar just now, like, like Zhiqing?"

"Zhiqing?" Jia Yun was taken aback, then sighed helplessly, "Zhiqing has been lost for several years, why did you bring it up again, don't let Eighth Grandpa hear it!"

Mulan chased her mother into Huaerjin, and said unwillingly, "She is Zhiqing! Mother...you should think about the appearance of that girl just now. Although it has been a few years, Zhiqing's appearance should not be too big. change, right?"

"I just came back, what are you two arguing about?" Huahu heard the mother and daughter arguing when she came out of the dyeing room, and she didn't know what happened.

"Father, I saw Zhiqing!" Mulan ran over excitedly, "Mother said no, but I really saw it!"

Jia Yun lowered her head and thought about it carefully, "Don't tell me, it's really similar, maybe, will it be..." She raised her head with some joy, "Huahu, it may really be that Zhiqing is back!"

"Then the two of you are still arguing, why don't you hurry up and get him back!" Huahu was a solid heart, and when she heard the good news, she pulled them outside. "Grandpa Eight knows, he might be so happy!"

"That's right." Jia Yun pulled Mulan away as he walked out, "Your father and I are looking for someone, you should go to Luoshen Manor and tell Eighth Grandpa!"

"Oh, mother! I'll go find it with you, and ask Dad to tell Eighth Grandfather that Dad didn't see Zhiqing just now." Mulan urged again, "Hurry up, Dad!"

The three members of the Hua family all left Huaerjin at once, Jia Jun and Mulan split up to find someone, and Huahu went to the suburbs to Luoshen Manor.

As the sun was getting higher, Mulan was wiping her sweat while looking around at the shops and stalls along the street.The more she searched, the more impatient she became, wishing she could find Zhiqing immediately.In the past few years when she disappeared, not only their good friends who grew up together were sad, but also the eighth grandfather's heart was broken and his health was not good. Now there is finally hope.Thinking of this, Mulan happily had tears in her eyes. She quickened her pace and searched the streets back and forth. If there is no one on this street, find the next one. Zhiqing will definitely be found by her!

She ran across the whole street, turned to Fengxiang Street to the north, and finally saw the blue figure in a small teahouse.Mulan ran to the door of the teahouse in a few steps, and slowly stepped up the steps. She wiped the tears from her face and looked straight at the person sitting at a table by the door.

"Zhiqing..."

Zhiqing was taken aback when she heard someone calling her name, turned her head cautiously, and saw Mulan standing beside her looking at her with moist eyes, she opened her mouth bitterly, "You are...Mulan..."

Mulan ran over to hug her, and cried, "It's really you, Zhiqing! Great, you're finally back!" The two hugged and cried for a while before letting go. Mulan pulled Zhiqing out, "Follow me quickly." I'm going home, my father is going to inform Grandpa Eight, you will be reunited soon!"

Mulan took Zhiqing home, her mother had already returned.Seeing Zhiqing, Jia Jun held her in his arms and cried and laughed at the same time. After the three of them stopped crying, they went into the room and sat down together.Jia Jun and Mulan talked about what happened in Wufeng Valley, but when they talked about the eighth grandpa, the topic went back to the time when she just lost it three and a half years ago, and everyone was very sad again.

Until noon, Hua Hu went to Luoshen Manor and hadn't come back yet. Although several people were a little hungry, no one mentioned the matter of eating.Zhiqing sat restlessly in Huaerjin's embroidery room, accompanied by Mulan and Aunt Yun, when suddenly, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the courtyard, Mulan stood up smiling and ran outside,

"It must be Grandpa Eighth!"

Jia Yun also got up and went out, but Zhiqing was not seen in the courtyard.She turned around and saw Zhiqing standing at the door of the embroidery room. She hesitated and dared not come out, so she walked back, patted her hand, and asked, "Zhiqing, what's wrong with you, grandpa is here, why don't you dare?" go out?"

That's right, she is Zhiqing. Zhiqing has been dependent on her grandfather since she was a child. Now that grandpa is here, what's wrong with her? Why is she a little afraid of seeing that old man.Zhiqing looked at the door with tears in her eyes, and said to the people around her: "Aunt Yun, I haven't been with grandpa these few years, how is the old man doing well... After returning to Wufeng Valley, I dare not ask Luoshen Manor, I really don't know what to do." I'm afraid grandpa is gone."

Jia Yun wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and comforted him: "Silly boy, Grandpa Eight is fine. Although he is in poor health, he will be fine as long as you come back. With you taking care of him in the future, he will live a long life."

"Grandpa Eight, please slow down!" Mulan and her father's voice came from outside the door.

Then an old man's trembling voice sounded, "Qing'er, child, is that you, grandpa is here!"

Zhiqing couldn't bear it any longer, and ran into the yard with tears in her eyes. The old man in a plain coat was much older than a few years ago, with gray hair and a gray beard. She often saw him in her dreams, Now we finally meet. "Grandpa..." she whispered.

Babei Canzai looked at Zhiqing carefully, from head to toe, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, he walked over slowly, stroked Zhiqing's hair, and cried with red eyes: "Yes, it's me Dear Zhiqing! Qing'er, Grandpa has been looking for you so hard these past few years, and you're finally back!"

In the eyes of the Hua family, and even in the entire Wufeng Valley, Babeican's status cannot be shaken by anyone. Although he has been in poor health for the past few years and does not walk around outside, he is still a hale and hearty Grandpa Babei with everyone's demeanor.Now seeing his old man crying, hugging his lost granddaughter, weeping in his heart, he was moved to tears.

……

A few days later, word spread throughout the Five Phoenix Valley that Grandpa Eight's long-lost granddaughter returned.

The author has something to say: I don’t know if you have guessed which family Zhiqing belongs to when you read it before, and finally returned to Wufeng Valley. The next chapter will start to pick up the plot. I hope everyone will join in!
