An old lady's life

The two carriages drove to the gate of the city, and the cool autumn rain finally fell, but Ai Cao still did not change the route, and asked the coachman to go to a medical clinic first to treat the two children first.

The medical hall is near the edge of the inner city. At dusk, the doctors sitting in the medical hall are still there, and there are not many people seeing doctors and picking up medicines, only three or two.

The driver asked Ai Cao to wait in the carriage for a while, and he and a guard carried the two children into the hospital, and came out in less than half an hour.

The coachman Lao Huang opened a corner of the curtain and said to the inside of the car: "Old lady, the doctor has seen the doctor. The child is indeed hungry, some are malnourished, and there are some marks on his body, like pinched out, and there are also abrasions. These are all No problem, nothing else."

Ai Cao nodded: "Then go back home."

Jia Min will be fidgeting in the front hall. The rain has been brewing for a long time, and finally it has come down, but her mother-in-law hasn't come back yet, so don't let anything happen.

Hearing the butler's voice, Jia Min stood up immediately, and was relieved until he saw the figure.

The housekeeper was holding an umbrella, but the wormwood was not soaked in the rain. The coachman and the guards were soaked in the rain. The two children were dirty and stained with rain, and immediately turned into cats.

"Mother." Jia Min stepped forward to support Ai Cao, who patted her hand, "I made you worry, I'm fine."

Ai Cao pointed to the two children who were put down by the coachman, "My daughter-in-law will arrange to bathe the two children first. If there is porridge in the kitchen, feed the two children some porridge. If there is no porridge, then eat some snacks and drink Some water, don't eat too greasy food, I was hungry earlier, if it gets too greasy, my stomach will not be able to bear it."

Jia Min turned to look at the two dirty children, not knowing where her mother-in-law picked them up, nodded and said, "Okay, my daughter-in-law will arrange it now."

Ai Cao patted her hand, "Then I'll go back to Huifang Courtyard to wash up."

Jia Min ordered the maid and mother to bathe the siblings separately, but there were no clothes suitable for children in the mansion, so they got them from the servants.During this period, Jia Min also knew the origin of the siblings, and it was her mother-in-law who picked them up out of kindness.

After washing, the weight loss of the siblings became more obvious, and Jia Min couldn't bear it. Such a small child should live a carefree life under the wings of his parents, but now he is living outside.

Today, before her mother-in-law came back, Jia Min learned from her natal family that it seemed that the elder sister and the elder brother-in-law had quarreled. Maybe the elder sister's tone was wrong and hurt the elder brother-in-law's self-esteem. What about women?Didn't it mean that marrying him, a poor family Jinshi, will only be a five-rank pleasant man for the rest of his life. If he wants to give it a try, what's wrong with it?Since the Yue family can't help, don't delay!

Jia Siyao was so angry that she was trembling all over, she went back to her natal home this morning to ask her aunt for help.

Jia Min thought, it is true that the eldest brother-in-law is motivated, but he used the wrong method. With such exclusive means, it is better to do something practical, the emperor will always see it.

In Huifang Courtyard, wormwood was cleaned briefly and changed clothes. Jia Min came in with two cleaned children.At this time, the stove in Huifang courtyard has just started to heat up, and the water is still boiling, and the wormwood has no water to drink.

Jia Min bowed to the wormwood, "Mother, I gave the two children a small bowl of porridge and some water, nothing else."

Now my sister doesn't look like a hedgehog anymore, she just holds my brother's hand and never lets go.

The older sister seemed very sensible, and as soon as Jia Min finished speaking, she pulled her younger brother and knelt on the ground together, kowtowing to Ai Cao and Jia Min.

"Thank you, old lady, for saving my life." The younger brother didn't understand anything, he only knew how to follow his elder sister.

Ai Cao asked Qingqian to help the two siblings, pulled them to her side, and asked, "Little girl, what's your name? How old are you? Who's in the family? Do you remember where your home is?"

The little girl's eyes suddenly became terrified, "I won't go home, my mother is gone, my father has gone away to earn a lot of money, my uncle and aunt sold me and my brother." She was trembling while holding her brother, and his brother returned in a daze. Hold my sister.

Ai Cao patted the little girl's head immediately: "Okay, okay, don't go home."

"A lot of us are together, they are so fierce..." The little girl spoke incoherently and intermittently, and Ai Cao and Jia Min could only guess.

The two siblings were sold to Ren Yazi by his uncle and aunt. Ren Yazi took more than a dozen children on the road together. On the way, they either sold or bought, and finally reached the boundary of the capital. There were only about twenty people in total. .When sleeping in the wild temple at the top of the mountain at night, there was a quarrel with Renyazi, the quarrel was fierce, and finally moved hands, more than 20 children were frightened, everyone ran outside in panic, the elder sister led the younger brother She also ran along, and lost her way. She took her brother for a long time in the mountains and forests. She drank dew or stream water when she was thirsty, and picked wild fruits or leaves from the mountains when she was hungry. The exact time was unknown.

The little girl remembered that her hometown was called Sunjia Village, but it was useless. As soon as she heard the name, she knew that the name of the village was derived from the surname. There were at least a hundred or ten such Sunjia Villages in the Dafeng Dynasty.The little girl couldn't tell the time, so she could only speculate that Sunjia Village should be in Shanxi or Shandong.The father went out to run a business, the little girl's mother fell ill and died, and entrusted the two children to the uncle and the uncle's mother.The siblings stayed at the uncle's house for half a year before they were sold.

Ai Cao speculated that something might have happened to the little girl's father, which caused the uncle and aunt to sell her brother's two flesh and blood without any scruples.

The little girl finally said: "I am six years old, and my brother is three years old. Mother asked me to remember my brother's and me's names. My name is Sun Xinhui, and my brother's name is Sun Xin'an. Let me and my brother follow uncle and auntie. Daddy will come back to find us."

"I'm afraid I'll forget it. I read it several times a day. I forgot the names of mother and father." Xiaohui bit her lip in annoyance.

What happened to the siblings was embarrassing, and Ai Cao patted Xiaohui on the head, "Let's live in the Lin family for now." Ai Cao suddenly remembered that she could do something meaningful, that is, a shelter. She can do something good.

Xiaohui knelt down again: "Xiaohui and my brother thank the old lady for taking me in. I can do many things, including fetching water, washing clothes and sweeping the floor." Xiaohui said very sincerely, she always worked in the uncle's house to earn her Well-meaning people take them in with her brother's rations, she can't eat and drink for nothing.

When Lin Hai came back from the Yamen, he didn't see Jia Min in the main courtyard. Knowing that his wife must be in Huifang Courtyard, he changed his official uniform and came to Huifang Courtyard without stopping.

But why are there children in Huifangyuan?

"My son, send my mother's greetings." Lin Hai looked at his mother's expression and went out to play. He was not sick and looked good. His eyes fell on the Sun family siblings, "Whose child is this?"

Lin Hai sat next to Jia Min, and Jia Min briefly talked about the story of the Sun family siblings, Lin Hai nodded, but didn't say anything.The Lin family can still afford to raise two children. The couple will have no children for a while. It would be a good thing for the mother to have these two children to entertain her boredom.

Dinner was a simple soup, and the wormwood didn't let Xiaohui and Xiao'an eat more, so she ate until she was [-]% full, and then she would eat normally after a few days.After dinner, Ai Cao asked Qingyao and the others to arrange for Xiaohui and Xiaoan, while she asked Lin Hai and Jia Min to enter the study next to them, and the three of them said something confidential.

Lin Hai never thought that his mother would meet the Seventh Prince instead of going to Huiqing Temple to relax.

"Mother, today is indeed Concubine Shen Shu's birthday. I think that person must be the Seventh Prince." Lin Hai said without frowning. He has studied these princes in the palace, especially the prince whose mother has passed away, Prince Wei. , and the Seventh Prince.

Ai Cao nodded: "I don't know about this, I just guessed from his self-proclaimed Feng Qi. Don't be too surprised if the Seventh Prince expresses his affection for you."

Lin Hai nodded, Ai Cao glanced at the door of the study, and lowered her voice, "Don't get involved in the disputes between the four princes of Sujun, Prince, Xiangjun, and Gongjun. Since ancient times, people who can There are very few princes who become emperors, and the princes who compete with the princes that the emperor has painstakingly cultivated will not fall well."

Jia Min's heart skipped a beat, Lin Hai looked serious, nodded and said: "Mother, don't worry, son knows. I clock in on time every day and leave work at that time. My son is keeping his filial piety now, and my colleagues don't invite me. My future is uncertain. The princes You can’t see me now.” But he won’t always be like this, learning literary and martial arts, and being a king’s family, this is every man’s ambition.

Ai Cao smiled: "Don't be so serious, mother is just reminding you." After sending away his son and daughter-in-law, Ai Cao went back to the house early, and went to bed early after completing the daily fusion with the buds.

Lin Hai and Jia Min talked in bed again, and Jia Min was a little confused. If the prince can't become the emperor, the process will be extremely exciting. I hope that my family and my mother's family will not be swept away by the tail of the typhoon.

Rongfu

The masters also had dinner together. After this period of running-in, Zhang's and Wang's hearts were relieved. The mother-in-law didn't seem to be going to make a big move, as if after the father-in-law passed away, the mother-in-law suddenly became transparent. up.

Although Jia Hu's body is still weak, at least it can't be seen on the surface. Zhang's complexion has also turned red, and even Wang's complexion is ruddy, and he hasn't become dull because of filial piety. Hongye is very satisfied with this, Lingshui takes care of her The body is still very useful.

Seeing the two grandsons happily eating dinner, Hongye's mood improved because of her eldest son-in-law's corruption.

Everyone has their own aspirations, and since Qi Frame doesn't listen, she doesn't care.In the red building, without her sober Mother Jia, the Rongguo Mansion would not have collapsed in the Prince incident. She saved the family business like this, and it would not have been worse.

After dinner, the grandson and his daughter-in-law went back to their respective yards for bed. It was about seven o'clock in the evening. She couldn't fall asleep anyway. Thinking about it this way, Hongye went into the study and didn't let anyone wait on her. Jia's mother's previous handwriting began to practice big characters, and finally all the used paper was put in the space by her.

Hongye didn't intend to copy Jiamu's handwriting to be exactly the same. If there is a five-point or three-four-point resemblance, it's fine. Anyway, the elderly are old and have no hand strength, so handwriting changes can be rounded.

After washing up and going to bed, I dismissed the servant girl, and my consciousness entered the space again.The flower seeds planted on the land have sprouted, and they are emerald green, which is very gratifying.

Hongye murmured: "Ai Cao's life is really happy, the Lin family doesn't need her to worry about it, I'm just a hard worker!" She has learned from Jia Min's letter that Ai Cao has been staying at home for a month, and she is so bored. , ran to visit the temple.

She had to wait a long time before she could completely let go of her burden.Thinking of Hongye like this, he shook his head, started today's routine work, merged with the flower buds, and then went back outside to sleep peacefully.
