Chapter 338 The woman who came suddenly
The thunder was still rumbling.
After a while, the big raindrops flowed along the eaves and formed a rain curtain.
Feng put away the clothes outside, and Li Qiqiao also returned home from Xianquanju with an umbrella.
The two smiled tacitly, and then went into the house, one cooking pancakes, and the other sitting by the fire, chatting from time to time, enjoying the time alone between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Xiao Nuobao also woke up when she heard the sound of rain. She straightened her crooked braid and took a piece of peach cake to eat.
Seeing that the meal was about to be ready, Jiang Fengnian and Jiang Fenghu smelled the fragrance and were about to set the table for dinner.
"Auntie."
But at this time, Yang Tianmei's voice rang outside the door.
Mrs. Feng thought it was an emergency, so she called Jiang Fenghu to open the door. However, she didn't want to welcome a pair of unfamiliar mother and daughter into the yard.
Yang Tianmei looked embarrassed.
She was unwilling to bring the woman here, but they lived in the same village. Even if she didn't lead the way now, she would come to the door sooner or later.
Mrs. Feng was surprised when she saw the woman with wet hair and the crying girl in her arms.
"Didn't you just move into the village? What's the matter with you..."
Who knew that as soon as the words came out, the woman's eyes were red, she cried out, and immediately knelt down to Mrs. Feng!
The Jiang family was shocked.
"Let's talk it over, what are you doing!" Mrs. Feng frowned and took two steps back to avoid suspicion.
The woman was stunned when she saw that Feng didn't come to help her.
Then she pinched the corner of her clothes and tears flowed into two small rivers, which looked very pitiful.
"Sister-in-law, I am sorry for being so rude today, but I am really in trouble."
"My husband died in the war, and the academy and shop we opened were destroyed by the thieves from the north. The only family property we had was also robbed by the neighbors. I can only bring my daughter, my parents and my parents to escape here. I want to seek refuge with a relative in Yuncheng, and I want to ask your family to help find him." The woman sobbed.
Feng paused.
So, you just want to ask the Jiang family to help find your relatives?
I think finding someone is not a big deal, just try your best, and think of it as a good deed.
So Feng brought her into the house and brought a bench for her to sit on.
"Don't cry, talk slowly if you have anything to say." Feng leaned against the door and said.
Perhaps because of the rain and the discomfort, the little girl in the woman's arms cried loudly.
"Mom, I want to go home, I'm hungry!"
Feng saw that the child's face was pale yellow, and snot and tears were stuck to her chin. She looked very pitiful.
She sighed and said, "Fengnian, go and get the peach cakes on the cabinet in the inner room and give the child two pieces."
Hearing someone coming from the outer room, without waiting for the eldest brother to come in, Xiao Nuobao came over with a box of cakes.
She also picked a piece of her favorite sesame peach cake, stuffed it into the little girl's hand, and coaxed her in a baby voice, "Here's to you~"
It was rare to see a girl of the same age, and Xiao Nuobao couldn't help but feel sorry for her when she saw her hungry.
The girl grabbed the peach cake, didn't even look at Xiao Nuobao, and stuffed it into her mouth in a hurry, and coughed up the crumbs all over the floor.
Xiao Nuobao was like a little bee collecting honey, and she hurried over, took her cup, and poured some goat milk tea.
The woman kept nodding and thanking her.
"Thank you, thank you, you are such a kind child, I guess it's because of your family tradition, your whole family is kind-hearted."
Feng didn't want to talk nonsense, so she immediately interrupted.
"Let's talk business. I don't know what to call you."
The woman cried and raised her eyes and replied, "I was born Bi Zhuang'er. Later, my husband thought it was not elegant, so he changed my name to Bi Luochun. You can just call me Luochun."
"This is my daughter Bi Qingqing." She touched the girl in her arms.
"Bi Luochun..." Xiao Fengmiao kept repeating, thinking something was strange.
Feng nodded and asked again, "Then you said just now that you have relatives in Yuncheng? I don't know the name of that person, whether it is a man or a woman, how old he is, and what he does. Tell us in detail, so that we can help you find out."
Bi Luochun paused, and tears soon rose in her eyes again.
"Actually, you don't have to look hard. Your family knows that person. One day, I saw him helping out at your porridge stall during a porridge distribution..." Bi Luochun picked her fingers.
"Is he an acquaintance of my family?" Feng's eyes widened.
Bi Luochun blushed and stammered, "He is Wei Youhan, the dean of Wei's Academy."
"He is my husband's brother-in-law. My late husband only had him as a brother. They had a very good relationship when they were young."
The Jiang family was shocked when they heard this.
It turned out that this woman was the sister-in-law of dean Wei by coincidence?
Jiang Fenghu was honest and straightforward, so he laughed and said, "It seems that our family and Dean Wei have a deep connection. Even the refugees who were randomly assigned here can have such an intersection."
Bi Luochun felt guilty for a moment, and did not respond, but just touched the girl's hand.
However, since she already knew about Wei's Academy, why did she ask the Jiang family to help find him? Isn't this a waste of time?
Feng Shi became suspicious and stared at Bi Luochun.
"Strange, you just said you wanted to find your relatives, but now you said you saw him when you were giving out porridge, so why are you asking my family to help you? You have your own legs, so why don't you just go and find him?" Feng Shi questioned.
Bi Luochun waved her hands and explained, "Don't get me wrong, I'm telling the truth."
"It's not that I can't go by myself, but when my late husband was alive, the two brothers had a quarrel over some trivial matters and haven't been in touch for many years... I'm a woman, I don't have the face to go to my brother-in-law, I'm afraid he won't recognize me, and I'm even more afraid of being dragged out and losing face..."
"So... I wanted to ask your family to help... to help me make peace... After all, your family is familiar with him..." Bi Luochun lowered her eyes and sobbed.
"So that's the case." Jiang Fenghu nodded suddenly.
Before Feng and Li Qiqiao could speak, he said without thinking, "That's a big deal, Dean Wei is the kindest person. If he knew that you orphans and widows came out to escape famine, he would definitely take into account the brotherhood."
Bi Luochun raised her eyes and cried, "If that's the case, it would be great, but I don't know if you can go with me. It's inconvenient for me, a widow, to go alone."
Jiang Fenghu was calm and agreed immediately
. "It's a small matter. How about I take you to the academy in two days when I go to deliver something to Fengjing?"
Bi Luochun got the promise and bowed happily, "That's great, thank you, thank you! I know your family is kind, I will wait for you at home!" Jiang Fenghu
thought he had done a good deed, and smiled when he sent Bi Luochun out.
However, he didn't know that Feng and Li Qiqiao had already changed their expressions and had been winking at him, but he didn't notice it...
After sending the people away, Feng glared at her son, turned around and shook her head at Li Qiqiao.
"I shouldn't agree to this!"
If it was really as the woman said, then it was Dean Wei's family affairs, how could they interfere.
Moreover, with Dean Wei's temperament, even if he really had some conflicts with his brother.
But his brother had already passed away, he would definitely not refuse to see his sister-in-law and nephews and nieces for some trivial matters.
