"Why, did I offend her in some way?"
"It has nothing to do with you. The little girl got into trouble on her own. She will be fine in a couple of days."
Yin Yin waved at Song Qiao and disappeared.
Song Qiao's gaze passed through the small door and fell on a few graceful leaf shadows. "The lotus and plum blossoms are over. I'll get you another pot."
Xu Jiang shook her head. "No need. The flowers will bloom again next year."
Yes, the flowers will bloom again.
Song Qiao sighed softly, then said to Xu Jiang, "Now that you're back, Mr. Wen's orchid book has been found."
Xu Jiang asked, "Has Zhuchun's sketch been completed?"
"Almost there." Song Qiao replied quickly. He looked up and saw Xu Jiang's meaningful smile, and a feeling of heat rose to his cheeks.
At this time, several guests happened to come to the door, and they were a little surprised when they saw Xu Jiang.
"When did Shopkeeper Xu come back?"
"Just got back yesterday."
"I heard you were back home to visit your family. You were away for quite a while, so I didn't have the chance to ask you to find some books for me."
"What book are you looking for?"
Seeing that Xu Jiang was busy entertaining guests, Song Qiao didn't want to disturb her any further, so he took the opportunity to wink at her and said goodbye to go home.
She thought about what Xu Jiang said all the way, and her heart became more and more relaxed, and her steps became lighter and lighter. When she reached the entrance of her alley, she saw a gorgeous carriage parked in front of it.
Feiyang's heart suddenly sank and fell heavily to the mud, stirring up old dust.
Song Qiao stopped for a moment and turned into the alley. After walking a few steps, he saw a beautiful woman with two servants standing in front of her house, looking around.
The beautiful woman turned around when she heard footsteps.
The two looked at each other, both stunned.
After a long while, Song Qiao stepped forward and bowed to the beautiful woman, saying, "Greetings, Madam Lu. I wonder what brings you here?"
Mrs. Lu was stunned, and immediately her face turned cold and she asked, "What did you call me?"
Song Qiao replied calmly, "Mrs. Lu."
————Little Carp Mouth Dividing Line————
After visiting Song Xuelu and others at the Imperial College, Liang Mo went to the West Market Paper and Ink Shop to deliver gifts to several shop owners he frequently visited. He also ordered paper and ink according to the materials Xu Jiang had listed, and informed them of Xu Jiang's return to the capital.
The owner of the paper mill was very happy when he learned that Xu Jiang had returned. He packed a piece of each of his new types of paper and asked Liang Mo to take it back to let Xu Jiang take a look.
Liang Mo agreed.
The stubborn donkey was kept in Zhao Zhang's stable as usual. When he went to take the donkey away, he found that it was not only tied with two bags of hay, but also with some wine, drinks and cakes, which were return gifts from the couple.
He couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it on behalf of Xu Jiang.
When leaving the West Market, there was someone selling osmanthus cake at the door. Liang Moben passed by and then went back to buy a bag.
Yinyin loves to eat it. She cried today, so I bought some to comfort her.
When Liang Mo returned to the bookstore, he heard the sound of Wang the shopkeeper crying like a cow before he even entered. He ran to the door and saw Wang the shopkeeper holding Xu Jiang and crying bitterly.
"My sister, why are you so miserable——"
He immediately withdrew his foot and started unloading the goods.
After unloading the goods, Liang Mo led the donkey to the backyard, but saw Yin Yin hiding by the small door, wiping her tears and eavesdropping, and she didn't even know he had entered the yard.
He tied up the donkey, walked to Yin Yin with the osmanthus cake and patted her shoulder.
Yin Yin was startled.
That was quite a jump.
Yin Yin jumped up and hit Liang Mo's chin, and Liang Mo immediately tasted blood in his mouth.
I bit my tongue.
Liang Mo was in so much pain that he couldn't speak for a long time, but he still held the osmanthus cake in his hand firmly.
"You scared me to death." Yin Yin saw that it was Liang Mo, patted her chest, and complained: "Why didn't you say anything when you came back? Why did you hide behind me and scare people?"
Liang Mo was really speechless at this moment.
He endured the pain and stuffed the osmanthus cake into Yinyin's hand, then went to the kitchen to find cold water to rinse his mouth.
"What is this?" Yin Yin opened the paper package and saw a few pieces of osmanthus cake, which were still hot.
She was stunned for a moment, then looked into the store, and then went to the kitchen with the hot osmanthus cake in her hands.
"Liang Mo, is this for me? You are so kind."
He stole away a few pieces of osmanthus cakes, but the little carp still hasn't learned a lesson: greed will lead to being deceived.
The osmanthus cake in the kitchen is fragrant and soft, and the fragrant rain in the bookstore is refreshing and bitter.
After Manager Wang stopped crying, he felt his throat was dry, so he picked up the tea to drink. However, he felt that Xu Jiang's experience was even more bitter than the tea, and he couldn't help but shed two more tears.
Xu Jiang had been speaking sentimentally, but his tears suddenly cleared her mind. She then reluctantly advised, "Brother, this matter has been concluded successfully, and we should celebrate. If someone who doesn't understand the situation hears your tears, I wonder what will happen to me."
Too.
Shopkeeper Wang wiped his face and fell silent, then asked in a hoarse voice, "Since you have recognized each other, why don't you bring your aunt to the capital to live a happy life together?"
Xu Jiang shook her head. "She already has a family and relatives. How can it be considered perfect if she follows me?"
Shopkeeper Wang sighed, "But you are also her daughter."
Xu Jiang looked at the smoldering tea, which resembled the moon. She reached out and gently touched it. "The moon waxes and wanes, but it's always the moon. It's the same for her and me. As long as we understand each other, no matter whether we're together or apart, we'll always be mother and daughter, the closest people in the world. Why should we be obsessed with being apart?"
Just as the master said, when she appeared in the ginger field, she had already embarked on a different path from her parents.
Therefore, she and Xu Yuan only have the relationship of master and disciple, but not father and daughter. She and Xi Zhi only have the relationship of mother and daughter, but not the name of mother and daughter.
Now, Xu Yuan has gone his own way as both her teacher and father, and the father and son of the Wan family have made up for Xizhi's loss over the years, while she has also crossed the rapids and reached the other side.
