Chapter 167 Mother is Dead
The Jiang family felt as if there was a scorching sun in their hearts, warm and burning.
Jiang Jinyou felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. He sighed, "These are all divine objects, too rare. Su'er, you should keep them. Making salt is extremely dangerous."
Jiusu handed the bag over, and his hands felt much more relaxed.
"Nothing will happen to me in Suming County. The Crown Prince and the Marquis are here, and Ajing is also with me. I still have a lot of these things. Take them. Otherwise, my aunt will be worried and unhappy."
Jiang Jinyou glanced at his wife, then he put on his bag and said solemnly, "I will remember your kindness. Jing'er, please protect the girl well, okay?"
"The child knows."
The courtyard became empty. Due to their special status, Jiusu did not allow her aunt and Nianyin to go to the shop. In the courtyard, they were admiring the flowers and showing their handkerchiefs when they were bored. Suddenly, someone left, which made them feel a little depressed.
Worried about the safety of loved ones.
Jiang Nianyin lowered her head. "It would be great if my daughter could help father and Susu, but I can't do anything. I'm not good at work, and I'm not the best girl in Shengjing."
Jiang's mother paused for a moment.
Her smile was gentle, like the warm sun. "You don't have to be the best, but you have to be the most dedicated. In a few days, the weather will get cold, and Susu will be busy. She won't have time to drink hot tea or eat hot meals. We can help."
Jiang Nianyin's eyes flashed.
"I'm going to make a pair of warm sleeves for Susu!"
"I won't make a pair for your brother." Jiang's mother smiled.
Jiang Nianyin thought for a moment, "He's a man who can withstand the cold. I'll make warm sleeves for Susu first. If there's time, I'll make him a pair."
My brother is not as good-looking as my sister-in-law.
Qiu Man, on the other hand, has been eating hot pot. When she has time, she will come to visit Jiang Nianyin and listen to her stories about Jiusu. In the end, she becomes full of admiration and decides in her heart that she will wait until she sees Jiusu again next time.
Be sure to express your love.
At night, Jiusu had a nightmare. No, it should not be called a nightmare, it should be called a very miserable dream. In the dream, a beautiful woman was crying while hugging a pillow. In the end, it turned out that Jiusu's mother was crying while hugging her.
Jiu Mu's figure became increasingly transparent, staring straight ahead, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.
"Mom..." she murmured, then woke up with tears in her eyes.
In front of her, two maids were whispering. Seeing that the young lady had woken up, they knelt in front of the bed, looking at the person on the bed with hesitation and indecision, as if they had something to say but stopped themselves.
Jiusu sat up and woke up with a hoarse voice.
Looking at the dark sky outside, there was no light at all.
"What's wrong?"
Zitan pursed her lips and sighed, "Aunt Yuan sent someone to bring news that Madam Jiu has passed away. She said her family wanted to come look for you, but the village chief suppressed them and asked you to take some time to go home."
Jiusu sat there in a daze.
It wasn't until I felt warmth on my hand that I figured out who Madam Jiu was. "My mother?"
Zitan nodded and said distressedly: "Miss, Aunt Yuan said that it's okay to wait a few days before going back. Now your brother and sister-in-law want to put the blame on you."
Kou Shao also advised.
"I'm afraid you might get hurt."
After a moment, Jiusu sighed deeply. The candlelight on the table was blown askew by the wind. She turned her gaze to the shadow on the wall and said, "Prepare the carriage. I'll go back now."
They supported all the decisions made by the young lady, and Zitan went to harness the carriage.
Kou Shao dressed her up, her tone tinged with grievance, "Can't you take Zitan with you this time? I want to go too, but if they're unreasonable, I'll be hurt more than Zitan's claws."
I stretched out my hand and saw that my nails were not long at all.
Uh, I should have grown it longer.
"I'll take you there." Jiusu looked at herself in the mirror and thought of the dream. She and Jiusu had a mother-daughter relationship. Her mother had passed away, and as a daughter, she should go and see her.
She wore a plain dress and no red hairpins.
In ancient times, Jiusu was also well maintained.
No one expected that Jiang Jing would also come. He stood in front of the carriage and took the initiative to say, "I woke up at night and saw the candlelight flickering in your yard, so I wanted to check it out. Zitan told me, Ah Su, I'll take you back, but it's too late and it's not safe for you."
Three girls, it's really not very safe.
Now the automatic crossbow has also been lent to Uncle Jiang.
Along the way, Jiusu closed his eyes and dozed off, constantly thinking about a question in his mind: Was Jiu's mother's death indirectly caused by her not giving the money?
Zitan said softly, "Miss, we're here."
At dawn, there were no white flowers in front of Jiu's house, and it looked like no one had died. However, there were many neighbors squatting around. The courtyard door was wide open, and the mourning hall was set up.
It was just that Jiugui and his wife were lying on the ground and sleeping soundly.
Jiudali was secretly eating the two cakes offered to him.
The carriage entered the village and soon everyone arrived.
The snack in Jiudali's hand fell to the ground. He bent down to pick it up, looked up and saw someone at the door. He pointed at Jiusu and shouted, "Dad! Mom! That bitch is here!"
A child of a few years old, yet he speaks so viciously.
Village Chief Chen frowned, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the yard with Jiusu. He scolded: "Jiugui, is this how you usually teach your son?"
"Village chief, did my son say anything wrong?" Chen Yulan protected her child and retorted with her hands on her hips.
Village Chief Chen snorted coldly: "Someday something bad will happen!"
The couple looked at each other and softened their attitude. They were not going to quarrel today.
As a woman, Chen Yulan's eyes seemed to be filled with poison when she saw Jiusu looking so beautiful. In an instant, she knelt in front of the mourning hall crying and wiping her sleeves with snot and tears.
"Mom! You died such a tragic death! You had a rich daughter, but she still starved to death!"
Jiugui shouted, "Jiusu! You killed my mother, you vicious person! If I had known you showed up at our house, I would have strangled you to death!"
Aunt Yuan stood in front and explained to the villagers.
"Jiusu is a kindhearted girl. She was afraid that Jiugui would take the money and spend it, so she asked me to cook an extra meal for her mother. Zhishu, you have seen that she often comes to the factory to eat with you in the big pot. It was also Jiusu's request.
Just a few days ago, my elder sister said she didn’t want to come to eat anymore. It was her own choice.”
Jiugui is so annoyed with Aunt Yuan.
My mother went to someone else's house to eat in an unbelievable manner and didn't even bring back some steamed bread, so he threatened her not to go back, "She is so rich, what's wrong with giving us some money?"
There was a chillness everywhere.
It's disheartening.
Kou Shao raised her head and said, "You are a grown man, and your wife is strong, but you can't support two children and an old man?"
Aunt Wang sneered.
"Just them? In the past few years, Jiugui's mother has been working in the fields to support these parasites! Forcing them to work in the fields is like asking for their lives. A grown man abuses his mother and puts the blame on his sister. Do you have any shame?"
Jiusu didn't expect that so many people in the village would speak up for her.
The family had no money to buy a coffin, so they just covered the deceased with a straw mat.
She said, "Village Chief, I want to go in and see my mother."
Jiang Jing followed behind without saying much.
The straw mat was lifted, and Jiu's mother was only wearing thin clothes.
Seeing this, Jiang Jing's eyes darkened slightly: "She didn't die of starvation, she died of freezing."
