Chapter 217 Wei Mansion Matters (Part 2)
Madam Cui shook her head and said, "They are too far away. They probably haven't received the news."
Old Madam Cui looked a little dazed.
Looking at Mrs. Cui's expression, Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mom, you miss them."
Mrs. Cui showed a sad look on her face and said, "Of course I would."
"But they're so far away, and the Cui family has been convicted and exiled. I don't know if I'll ever see them again."
"So, Zhiluo, your parents and siblings live nearby, and I really support you visiting them often."
Jiang Zhiluo felt a little sad when she heard what Mrs. Cui said.
"Mother is marrying far away, so it must be a bit hard."
Madam Cui said, "Fortunately, the Cui family is very nice and has a very good family tradition. My father-in-law is sensible and my mother-in-law seems strong, but she treats me very well. When I went to the Cui family, my mother-in-law gave me power and let me take charge of the household. My husband also understands and respects me, and my children are all filial."
"It's just that my mother's family is a little far away, but my brother and sister-in-law are relieved to see that I am doing well."
"But I don't know how they are doing now. If they are affected, then the Yang family can't do anything."
"The aristocratic families are no longer what they used to be. Their status has been weakened considerably over the past hundred years."
Jiang Zhiluo listened carefully to what Mrs. Cui said, and gained a better understanding of the Cui family.
After chatting with Mrs. Cui for a while, Jiang Zhiluo packed her things and went to Xingshan Village.
She also kept surgical tools in her space.
She had it made by a blacksmith.
Fortunately, she had earned thirty taels of silver from the Jian family before. She took out some of the silver to make a complete set of surgical tools and some hidden weapons for self-defense.
This alone cost a lot of money.
But I also made some money during this period.
After deducting daily expenses from the money she earned and adding the money she had saved before, she now has twenty-one taels of silver in her hand.
Her father has been using medicine on his feet and legs for so long that he can now have surgery.
Jiang Zhiluo took the things and went to Xingshan Village.
When I got there, it was just past noon and only Dad and Xuanxuan were at home.
Jiang Xiangchuan was very happy to see his daughter coming. "My daughter is here. Come and sit down. Dad will pour you some water."
As he said this, he stood up and poured water reflexively.
"Dad, don't move your legs."
Xuanxuan, on the other hand, ran over excitedly when he saw Jiang Zhiluo, "Sister, sister..."
Jiang Zhiluo picked him up.
She could feel that Xuanxuan had become heavier and looked taller.
It can be seen that if you eat well at home and get enough nutrition during this period, it will be easy to grow taller.
Jiang Zhiluo took out the egg yolk pastry and let Xuanxuan eat it.
"Wait until mom and my brothers and sisters come back to eat together."
Jiang Zhiluo stroked his hair and said, "You're so sensible."
"Dad, where are Mom and the others?"
Jiang Xiangchuan said, "There's a market in Yangliu Village today, and your mother is taking your brothers and sisters to set up a stall to sell things."
"My legs are not in good condition, so I just happened to be making umbrellas at home."
Speaking of umbrellas, Jiang Zhiluo saw something beside them and asked, "Dad, did you make an umbrella?"
Jiang Xiangchuan smiled and said, "Well, I've made it. I'll keep these three for you, your mother-in-law, and He Jin."
"We kept two umbrellas at home, and there were six left. Your mother took them to the market and sold them."
Xuanxuan hugged Jiang Zhiluo's neck and said, "Sister, we sold all the umbrellas Dad made at the market last time."
Jiang Xiangchuan nodded and said happily, "We just made some umbrellas last time we went to the market. Your mother and her friends took five umbrellas to set up a stall. Our umbrellas are cheaper, so they sell better."
Jiang Zhiluo put Xuanxuan down, went over to pick up the umbrella, opened it, and saw the lotus painting on the umbrella. She was amazed, "Dad, who painted such a beautiful lotus?"
"It must be because the umbrellas look good, so people are willing to buy them."
She had also seen umbrellas in the town's grocery stores and markets. The patterns on the umbrellas were very simple, and some had no patterns at all, but they still cost three hundred coins each.
Xuanxuan said: "It was drawn by my mother, it was drawn by my mother."
"What about this color?"
"My mother picked some leaves on the mountain. They had some colors on them. She squeezed them to get the juice and used a brush to paint on them."
Jiang Zhiluo listened and her expression changed, "Mom can also paint."
She felt more and more that her mother was not an ordinary girl.
"Dad, did my mom learn to paint before?"
Jiang Xiangchuan lowered his head and explained in a low voice: "Your grandfather was a poor scholar who could read, write and paint. Your mother learned a little from him since she was a child."
Jiang Zhiluo touched her chin, she didn't believe it.
Her father lowered his head and didn't dare to look at her expression, for fear that she would see something.
Her father is an honest man and is not good at lying.
She always felt that her parents had a background.
As if she had thought of something, Jiang Zhiluo said, "Dad, I don't know what's going on lately. I keep dreaming about a little girl."
"A little girl of four or five years old."
Jiang Xiangchuan paused, "What did you dream about?"
Jiang Xiangchuan widened his eyes, somewhat unable to believe it.
There was even a hint of fear and worry in his eyes.
Jiang Zhiluo is best at observing subtle expressions.
She looked at her father and felt that he was nervous.
But he was nervous and afraid of something.
"Dad, I dreamed of a little girl about four or five years old. She looked a bit like me when I was a child."
Although she has no memory before the age of six.
But after she turned six, although her memory was vague, she would look in the bronze mirror and roughly know what she looked like as a child.
She looks a bit like that little girl, but not the same.
She took her pulse and found no poison.
So she became even more confused.
So she wanted to ask tentatively.
But judging from her father's reaction, there's obviously something wrong.
Jiang Xiangchuan's face turned pale, and he opened his mouth and said, "You...you, why did you dream about this?"
"Yes, Dad, I think it's quite strange. I dreamed that the little girl lived in a huge mansion with a sign saying 'General Wei's Mansion' hanging on it..."
"Bang!"
The umbrella rib in Jiang Xiangchuan's hand suddenly fell to the ground.
His hands trembled.
Jiang Zhiluo asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"I...I'm fine!"
Jiang Xiangchuan's mind was in a mess at the moment.
But when he picked up the things, he quickly calmed down.
"Zhiluo, this is just a dream, don't think too much about it."
Jiang Zhiluo saw her father's expression change so quickly and thought that her father must not be an ordinary person.
This reaction ability, especially the ability to restrain his expression so quickly, is something that most people cannot do.
She didn't think anything of it at first.
But her father's reaction made her realize that this little girl from the Wei Mansion might have some connection with her.
Otherwise, she would not have dreamed about the things that happened in the Wei Mansion before.
You know, there is no one in General Wei’s Mansion now.
The Wei family was raided and executed, that was eight or nine years ago.
It seems that she wants to investigate the affairs of the Wei family.
However, the Wei family's affairs seemed to be a taboo in Yun Country, so she could only investigate secretly.
Or ask Cui Hejin.
Just at this moment, the voices of my mother and my younger brothers and sisters came from the door.
"The flowers my mother paints are so beautiful, that's why our umbrellas sell so well."
"Because we sell umbrellas for twenty cents cheaper than other umbrellas..."
