Chapter 120 Can't escape
...
Night falls.
The small courtyard is warmer.
It's lively when the family is together.
After the male master came, the whole family became more complete and had a backbone.
Mrs. Qin, who was well-behaved during the day, inexplicably had a little girl's shyness after her husband came back, which shows that the relationship between the two is very good.
The eldest girl became more arrogant and jumped around, because her father not only listened with a smile, but also echoed and praised her.
From time to time, she quarreled and made a few noises with her brother.
Aunt Yin knew the reason for Sister Yu's character.
The little girl was silly and cheerful, and she looked very happy.
She shouted: "Daddy, Daddy."
Then she shouted: "Brother, brother."
Very busy.
The calf ran happily.
The brother of the Jiang family surprised Aunt Yin.
Observing the two sisters, I feel that they are both girls who are spoiled too much and have many problems.
But Feng Ge'er is smart but not showing it. He smiles first when he meets someone. He looks very honest and similar to Madam Qin, but more stable and reserved.
He is a truly smart young man.
Such people will live longer.
Yin Gu is good at observation.
But she looked at other people, but didn't dare to look at Mr. Jiang.
The message that Zi Shuai asked someone to tell her emerged in her mind.
Mr. Jiang has been known as unfilial and unfraternal for most of his life. After they came, Mr. Jiang realized that his parents were not his relatives and he was an orphan in the family.
When Yin Gu married her husband, his children had grown up and started their own families.
Because of her, her husband's business was doing better, but she was always very worried in the capital. Seeing that she couldn't sleep at night and couldn't sleep well, her husband moved back to his hometown Jingzhou with his family.
Life in Jingzhou was also very good. But she didn't expect that the children wanted the prosperity of the capital more, and they forced her husband to death.
But they didn't think about it, the prosperity of the capital was only after she came into being. Before that, they lived in the corner of the capital, where the poor gathered, and lived a miserable life stepping on dirty water when they went out.
So sometimes, family matters don't look at the surface, but she really hates unfilial people, and she would be inexplicably unhappy when she heard these words.
She just thought that those children just didn't like her as a stepmother, and she rarely interacted with them, but she didn't expect that they would force their own father to death.
Wealth and honor blind people, and people's hearts are easily changed.
But an orphan in the family, which family can have such an orphan.
Seeing such a face.
Yin Gu suddenly understood who this Lord Jiang was.
The nobles in the palace would mention this Master Jiang, saying that he was a handsome and rare man.
Yin Gu really admired Madam Jiang for being able to live in this small place for so many years.
Think about her bold personality when she was young.
I really thought that it was because of the death of Master Jiang that made her feel hopeless.
But I didn't expect that there was another reason.
During the day, she felt that this small courtyard was peaceful everywhere. Although it was poor, life was extremely warm and comfortable.
She could grow old here in peace.
But at night, when she saw Mr. Jiang's appearance, she saw him wearing coarse cloth and straw sandals when he came home, and he was helping with the housework, washing and cutting vegetables.
Yin Gu really felt that it was not a pity for Mrs. Jiang to die eight hundred times.
"The mouth of a green snake and the sting of a wasp are not poisonous, but the heart of a woman is the most poisonous."
She was an old maid in the palace who had just escaped, and she had to be involved in such a thing. This was really like an old man jumping into a dung pit. She had lived enough .
No, she couldn't stay here.
...
Jiang Changtian received a letter from Zi Lu in the county government, saying that he would send a female teacher to his two girls. He briefly introduced the female teacher, Xu Xuan, from a wealthy local family, who was quite talented and now had no one to rely on.
It was a very good candidate.
Jiang Changtian is a very suspicious person. He is deep-minded and it is very difficult for him to trust others. However, when he saw the candidate mentioned in Zi Lu's letter, he had to say that Zi Lu was really good at grasping people's hearts. This female teacher was impeccable.
Moreover, he seemed to have just mentioned it casually, and he should not have said it in front of Zi Lu, but Zi Lu actually sent the person.
He really needed a female teacher to teach his two daughters.
It is not easy for daughters to act, and the world requires more from women. He hopes that the children can live more easily, at least to be able to get by on the surface. These are Xia Mei's weaknesses, and he is reluctant to teach them.
When he heard Yu Jie'er calling her aunt in an intimate voice, he knew that this female teacher was very powerful. In just half a day, Yu Jie'er liked her.
When meeting the female teacher, Jiang Changtian also felt that she was indeed good. This person gave people a very elegant feeling, although her face was ordinary.
But he was also sure that it was the first time he met her. Jiang Changtian found strangely that she seemed very nervous.
A woman who could kill all the unfilial sons by counterattacking should not be nervous. She was
even more capable than him.
Jiang Changtian felt that this Yin Gu handled it much better than him.
But she was nervous.
Jiang Changtian saw that she looked at ease, but she was just hiding her nervousness.
Because the amplitude of the swing of her hand holding Mianmian changed.
Jiang Changtian felt that things seemed to be interesting.
The Yin Gu in front of him seemed to have seen him before, or had seen someone similar to him.
Yin Gu's pupils changed, very slightly, in an instant, but there was a change.
Dinner was as warm as usual.
We had chicken in the evening, and we bled it according to Aunt Yin's instructions. The chicken was more fragrant than usual, and the soup tasted much better.
We hadn't made chicken blood yet, and the raw materials were insufficient, but the coagulated chicken blood could actually be used to make soup, which was also very delicious.
Jiang Changtian observed Yin Gu's every move. Her posture was naturally beautiful, as if she had absorbed the rules and regulations. She was friendly and at ease with everyone, but she was different with him. She seemed to respect him more subconsciously.
Mr. Jiang, a country boy, should not get such respect.
The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.
In the evening, Yin Gu joined a happy after-meal tea break. The mode of drinking tea and chatting was indeed warm and comfortable.
The relationship between the family members was very simple, and the family was very united. Among the families she had seen, it was already very good.
A harmonious family is the foundation of everything, and only this kind of family can last.
She returned to her room.
The bed where she fell asleep at noon was still dry at night. The bamboo in the room was still beautiful. It was rare to have a touch of green in winter.
After closing the window and turning on the light, there was a sense of comfort and warmth in the room.
But she couldn't sleep.
She was roaring inside!
Ahhhhhhhhhh!
She couldn't.
She had struggled for most of her life just to leave the palace alive.
Now it was like returning to her old nest.
In such a small country courtyard, there was a stunning beauty, who had also participated in the rebellion. She had a face that was prettier than the eldest princess. Her
lips were a bit like the emperor's.
His eyebrows and eyes were most similar to that of a man, whom Yin Gu had only met once, the monk Jingjue.
Thinking of this man, Yin Gu's heart trembled.
Fortunately, her bag had not been unpacked yet. Since
the luggage was not put out, she thought she should pick up the bag and run.
She lay on the bed, waiting.
Waiting for it to get quiet outside.
There was no laughter from the older girls.
There was no murmuring from the younger girls.
There was no Madam Qin's voice either.
They should be asleep.
It was pitiful that the child lived in such a small courtyard without even a guard. How did he survive?
But this was not the time to feel pity for others. If she felt pity for others, who would feel pity for her?
She wanted to escape. She
had to escape overnight.
When she heard that everything was quiet, she got up gently and opened the door.
Outside the door, there was a crescent moon and the moonlit night was quiet.
The big trees were tall and straight.
The courtyard was clean and tidy. It
was harmonious and peaceful.
Although it was only half a day, she actually felt a little reluctant to leave.
But she had to escape.
She looked around and saw that there was no one there, and was about to pick up her bag.
But she heard a clear voice: "Aunt, where are you going so late?"
Only then did Aunt Yin realize that there was a young man practicing swordsmanship in the corner of the yard.
He was holding a sword, wearing a thin shirt, and even in the middle of winter, there was a little sweat on his face.
"I can't sleep, I want to get some fresh air." Aunt Yin pretended naturally, not feeling uncomfortable at all.
The young man smiled and said, "That's great, Aunt, you can watch me practice swordsmanship, I practice every day."
Aunt Yin smiled and nodded, kicking her bag inside.
She sat at the door and watched the young man practicing swordsmanship in the yard.
The cold wind made her shiver.
She wondered when the young man would finish practicing.
But in the moonlit night, the boy's moves were just ordinary at first. This move was also seen in the palace by the guards. It was useless for one person to use it, but it was great when a group of guards used it.
But the boy was alone, practicing meticulously. The wind in the yard seemed to blow him alone. When he finished his sword skills, Yin Gu realized that his sword had always been aimed at a leaf on the tree outside the yard. The leaf floated over, came to her eyes, and then formed a piece of emerald green powder.
The boy put away his sword, stood there, smiled with his big white teeth, and asked honestly: "Auntie, what do you think of my sword skills?"
Yin Gu: ...I'm sleepy, I'm going back to sleep.
Close the door.
Yin Gu's wrinkled face looked a little pale.
What kind of young man could have such swordsmanship? Is this something that ordinary people can have?
She lay back on the bed, closed her eyes and rested for a while. It felt like she had only rested for a moment. When she opened her eyes again, another hour had passed.
It was really quiet outside now, so she got up. She
pushed the door open.
She picked up her bag and prepared to leave.
"Aunt, where are you going? Are you hungry too? Here."
In the dark kitchen, a white girl's chubby hand stretched out, and there was a greasy chicken paw in her hand...
Yin Gu was so scared that she lost her soul. She
had never been so scared in the palace.
Who could know how it felt to have a chicken paw suddenly appear in the dark window in the middle of the night.
It turned out that it was the eldest girl who got up in the middle of the night to eat secretly. She breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she breathed another sigh of relief.
Damn!
Why would a grown girl like you get up in the middle of the night to eat secretly!!!
You really eat a lot at night. I was worried that you would choke to death.
"Eating in the middle of the night is not good for your body. It's hard to digest." Aunt Yin frowned and said in a slightly reprimanding tone.
Jiang Yu stuck out her tongue. Aunt was really amazing. It was already the middle of the night and she got up to eat secretly and was caught.
"It's okay, aunt, don't worry, I can digest it very well. I can digest everything. I'll go back after eating this. Aunt, do you want to eat something too?" Jiang Yu said obediently.
Aunt Yin: ...No, go back to bed early.
Aunt Yin lay back on the bed again.
This time she tossed and turned, she couldn't stay, she had to leave.
It was estimated that by this time, the eldest girl would have finished eating the two chickens.
She stood up again and pushed the door.
This time she learned her lesson and did not dare to take the bag. Instead, she looked around. There was no one in the corner of the yard or the kitchen. Everyone was asleep. It should be fine.
Go!
"Aunt! You can't sleep!"
Aunt Yin was almost incontinent by the call of aunt.
When she looked up, she saw a person standing on the roof.
"Qin, Madam Qin, what are you doing on the roof in the middle of the night?"
Aunt Yin was about to cry.
Qin Luoxia raised her hand to show the two squeaking mice in her hand, and whispered: "My husband slept uneasily at night. He always felt a noise above his head. I guess there were mice. I finally caught them. Did I disturb you?"
Yin Gu: ...
shaking her legs.
I'm sleepy, really sleepy, go back to sleep.
Who is the good person catching mice on the roof in the middle of the night? o(╥﹏╥)o.
Yin Gu went back to the house and breathed a sigh of relief.
Her old waist really can't stand the torture, and her heart really can't stand the fright.
This time she decided to have a good rest and leave when it was almost dawn.
At that time, everything was quiet, and there would definitely be no one practicing sword, stealing food, or catching mice.
Yin Gu had already mastered the ability to plan how long to sleep in the palace without an alarm clock.
With eyes squinted, she may not be asleep, but she has rested.
Time passed slowly and quickly.
She opened her eyes. She
got up.
She picked up her bag.
She must go this time. She could go as
soon as she said she would. She
would definitely go.
She pushed the door.
Jiang Changtian and his daughter were standing at the door.
The bag fell to the ground.
They were about to push open the yard door.
They heard the sound.
Jiang Changtian turned around.
The baby in his arms was yawning, with eye mucus in the corners of his eyes.
The baby said slowly: "Good morning, aunt."
Aunt Yin: ...
How can it be early? It's not even daybreak yet! ! ! ! What
are you two, a pair of enchanting-looking father and daughter, doing before daybreak? ? ?
"Good morning." Aunt Yin showed a tired smile.
"Aunt, are you getting up to watch the sunrise too?" The baby yawned again after saying that.
Tears flowed out, watery and clear.
She rubbed her face in her father's arms, feeling comfortable and relaxed.
"Mr. Yin, good morning, did you sleep well?" Jiang Changtian's long hair fluttered, and he looked energetic.
Aunt Yin almost fainted.
She also smiled with difficulty.
"Good morning, I'm old and I can't sleep well." After saying that, she yawned in front of Mr. Jiang.
Aunt Yin covered her mouth tightly.
...
She stood under the big tree like a wandering soul, watching a red sun slowly rising in the distance.
The clouds in the sky changed brilliantly.
Time was slow.
The sunrise was so beautiful. She had never watched it so seriously in most of her life.
Her hand was tightly grasped by a small hand, swaying.
"Aunt, is it beautiful?" Jiang Mianmian yawned.
"Beautiful." Yin Gu also yawned.
The sunrise is beautiful.
The man next to it bathed in the golden light of the sunrise is even more beautiful.
Forget it, I'm sleepy. I yawned and tears flowed out.
"Go to sleep." Yin Gu turned and went back to the house.
