Ah Yong, who had been doing fabric business with Xi Yuanzhen in Jiangning before, knelt under the front hall, his eyes drooping, and when he talked about what Jiang Ning saw in his rough voice, and the tragedy of Uncle Xi's death, he choked up and wiped his face. The eyes were sobbing.

For a big man crying like this, one can imagine how miserable it must be.He continued intermittently that there were about twenty people in Jiangning's cloth shop. When he returned, the whole yard was empty and messed up everywhere. There was only a lingering smell of blood permeating the air. , like the rust gas that has been rusted for many years.It was terrifying and desolate again.

Before Ah Yong finished speaking, Xi Xuyao, who was standing beside the old lady, turned his head to look at the old lady Xi's face, and somehow said from his throat: "Enough, stop talking..."

Mrs. Xi was supported by a maid, leaned on the ground with her cane forcefully, and raised her voice, "Let him speak!"

Everyone in the hall was frightened into silence by the old lady's shout, and suddenly the whole room was filled with Ayong's intermittent and confusing narration. Ayong has been working with Xi Yuanzhen in Jiangning since he was a teenager. Xi Yuanzhen also looked up to him very much, so after seeing that scene, Ayong was immersed in shock and pain for a long time and couldn't extricate himself.

For half an hour, all the people stood in place and listened to Ah Yong's sad complaint. Many people wiped their eyes with handkerchiefs when they saw this scene, and Xi Xuyao's eyes were also red.On the contrary, Mrs. Xi seemed very calm, but her complexion was not very good, and her face was terrifyingly serious.

It was so easy to wait until Ah Yong finished venting, and the sobbing sound subsided, but Aunt Feng happily turned out from the corridor behind the hall.

Today, it was decided that Aunt Feng should go to Du's house to visit her married daughter. She hadn't seen Qingse for several months, so she missed her dearly.Although the girl was always lukewarm towards her, she grew up under her nose and never left her side for so long.I don't know how she is at her in-law's house, she is not used to staying there, Aunt Feng was so excited that she didn't sleep well all night, and she had to dress up for a long time before going out in the morning.

"What... what's the matter?" Seeing the scene in the hall, the smile on Aunt Feng's face suddenly froze, her round eyes turned from the kneeling A Yong to the sobbing crowd standing in twos and threes, "Hey, Well done, why are you all crying?"

Xi Xuyao ​​was standing closest to her, so Aunt Feng took the opportunity to ask him, but Xi Xuyao ​​didn't start, Aunt Feng only saw the blue veins on his neck, and she was quite excited.And Mrs. Xi was tense all over, and Aunt Feng didn't dare to ask more questions. She looked at each one, and finally walked to Xi Wanxiang with a smile, and stroked her docile hair: "Wanxiang, tell Auntie, What exactly happened here?"

Aunt Feng suddenly leaned over and got too close, her enlarged eyes seemed to be filled with tears that were about to fall.Xi Wanxiang was taken aback, and before she could react, her cousin's sister-in-law, who had been standing behind her and hugging her shoulders, grabbed her arm, and immediately distanced herself from Aunt Feng.

Yin Tang turned and stood in front of Wan Xiang, protecting her with his hands.In fact, there was nothing to worry about at all, but Aunt Feng always liked to do some tricks before, and she even had a precedent of framing Wan Xiang, which made Yin Chan take extra precautions against her.

"Ma'am, Master Xi... Master is gone!"

Fortunately, Ayong wailed like thunder, which freed Yin Chan and Wan Xiang from Aunt Feng's persecution.

Aunt Feng took a step back in disbelief, and accidentally tripped over the foot of the chair. She staggered three steps and walked to Ayong's side, holding his collar, her eyes tearing apart: "What nonsense are you talking about? Let the master know that you are like this!" Curse him, I must drive you out!"

Ah Yong wiped away the tears all over his face, looked at Aunt Feng's round and plump face like a full moon, and said: "Ma'am, what I'm telling the truth is the truth. Master, he was killed by the rebel army who killed a thousand swords! He suffered three or four bloody cuts, and even his intestines flowed out! It’s just that Ah Yong wanted to bring the news back to the old house himself, so he hurried back day and night, and the master’s coffin is still parked in Jiangning..."

Aunt Feng didn't want to hear what Ayong said, but she was at a loss, so she slapped Ayong's face blankly, and said through gritted teeth: "Shut up! Who allows you to talk nonsense?!"

"Okay! Don't make trouble!" Old Madam Xi was already annoying enough, but Aunt Feng's naughty brawling made people even more upset, "Xiao Rong, take your master away!"

Xiaorong, the girl who was going to go to Du's house with Aunt Feng, was still standing there, with a bamboo basket covered with blue and white silk cloth on her arm, she was already dumbfounded.After being called by Mrs. Xi, she suddenly woke up. Throwing the bamboo basket in her hand, she quickly stepped forward to hold Aunt Feng, and gently persuaded her in her ear.

But Aunt Feng was in a daze right now, she couldn't listen, she just felt that there was someone buzzing in the way, so she let Ayong go, turned around and wanted to slap Xiaorong again with wide eyes.Just as he raised his hand high, seeing Xiao Rong's astonished expression, he was suddenly discouraged and changed into a bewildered expression.Suddenly feeling dizzy for a while, he collapsed on the ground, without a trace of tears in his eyes, just staring at the crowd in a daze, without saying a word.

Seeing how Aunt Feng, who used to hold her face even when she lost power, was now in disarray, Xi Wanxiang couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and she looked up at her sister-in-law.

Yin Tang touched Wan Xiang's shoulder reassuringly, and whispered in her ear with a very thin voice: "It's okay, Wan Xiang is not afraid."

Of course Wan Xiang is not afraid, it's just that the difference between life and death is particularly shocking.However, fortunately, the sister-in-law was by my side, and her voice and breath were real and audible, which made people feel much more at ease.She gently hugged her cousin's arm, as if hugging the only reliable life-saving driftwood in the world, as long as she can walk with her, there is nothing that cannot be passed.

Soon, Aunt Feng was supported and sent back to the room. She was still silent, which was more worrying than crying.

On the other hand, Mrs. Xi seemed to be thinking very clearly and sharply, she arranged the funeral in an orderly manner, and ordered Ah Yong to go down to rest for a while, and then she was ready to take a few servants at home to Jiangning to pull the coffin of Xi Yuanzhen Come back, after all, Ye Luo returned to his roots, so he couldn't be left alone in other places without relatives, and his soul never returned to his hometown.They also sent letters to report the funeral to Xi Yuannian in Jinmen Town and Xi Xiahua in Yongzhou.

After ordering everything in an orderly manner, the old lady Xi shook suddenly, her eyes were dark, she was about to fall down and sit down.It happened that Wan Xiang was standing beside her, so she quickly supported the old lady, and asked the maid behind her to bring the grand master's chair, and after letting the old lady sit down, she brought her a cup of hot water.

Before the old lady came to her senses, Xi Xuyao, who was still red-eyed, lifted the collar of his straight skirt, knelt down on the ground with a "du" sound, straightened his neck and said that he would go to Jiangning to take care of his father's funeral in person. His father taught him a lot of principles, whether it was in the business field or the principles of life, there is no repayment for the kindness of upbringing, if he didn't go to Jiangning himself, his conscience would be disturbed.As he spoke, Xi Xuyao ​​bowed his body and knocked his head on the ground a few times.

Mrs. Xi seemed to have expected it long ago, and she still didn't have much expression.

On the other hand, Mrs. Yu, who was standing behind Xi Xuyao, was taken aback, and hurriedly tried to pull him with a pale face, but unexpectedly, he shook his hand away. If you are not born, you must stay in Xi's family to "have a child".This made the Yu family panic, she didn't want to lie to the family alone, and without Xi Xuyao's protection, she had no one to help when things happened!

Thinking about it, before Mrs. Xi could speak, Mrs. Yu quickly knelt down, crying and saying that she would go to Jiangning together.

Even though Mrs. Yu was crying, Mrs. Xi's heart was as numb as a lump of ice at this time, frowning and waving her hands, she said flatly, "Go Xu Yao, Mrs. Yu stay."

With such an undeniable sentence, what else could Yu say, so Xi Xuyao, who stood up first, helped her, carefully touched her lower abdomen, with a sad face.

The next day, Xi's house hung up the plains, and the mourning lanterns dangled at the gate of the house, which was very bleak.

After five years, Young Master Xi stepped into the carriage again at the gate of the ancestral house to go to Jiangning, but at that time he was hesitating in ambition, but now his face was like ashes.

A group of more than a dozen people set off in a mighty way. Mrs. Xi stood at the door and waited until the figures were no longer visible, and then staggered back.

Xi Wanxiang stayed by the old lady's side all the time, and the bank started to get busy a few days after the beginning of spring. The sister-in-law wanted to stay with the old lady to take care of her, but she was driven to the bank by the old lady, saying that the sky would not fall. Come down, you have to live.So Yin Dang had no choice but to let Wan Xiang stay, Wan Xiang was smart, and Yin Dang was relieved that she was here.

During dinner in the evening, the atmosphere was dull and depressing, and Aunt Feng didn't show up again, so Mrs. Xi ordered someone to bring some food over.While eating, the old lady suddenly felt a little blunt and uncomfortable, and thought that she had also suffered from a stroke, so she had to send someone to invite the doctor to come over and have a look, she must not collapse at this juncture.

Fortunately, after the doctor saw it, he said that the old lady was just suffering from headache and dizziness caused by over-thinking, and she would be relieved by taking a good rest.Then he prescribed a prescription for warming and nourishing qi, and asked the servant girl to go down to grab the medicine and fry it.

Halfway through a meal, they broke up unhappy.

Xi Wanxiang was still hungry, but she didn't dare to say anything in front of the old lady.Now when she arrived at the cousin's house, she hurriedly asked Jinlian to come down and bring cakes to eat.

While eating almond crisps, while resting her chin on her chin to watch her sister-in-law make a celebrity, Xi Wanxiang felt that the house of her cousin's sister-in-law was a safe haven for calm weather.

What Tangsao embroidered was a little tiger. Although it had teeth and claws, it was very cute. It made people think of a newborn white and fat baby.This is embroidered for the child in Mrs. Yu's belly. My cousin has been embroidering it for several days, but it is always intermittent, and I don't have time to finish it properly.Now, taking advantage of the free time, I seized the time to embroider.

Xi Wanxiang watched her sister-in-law shuttle back and forth carefully, knowing that it was impossible for the little tiger to be delivered to Mrs. Yu, so she asked, "Sister-in-law, if Wanxiang gets married and has children in the future, will you Will you embroider a little tiger for me?"

Hearing these childish words, Yin Chen couldn't help but burst out laughing, she tapped the tip of Wan Xiang's nose, and smiled softly: "So you're thinking about spring now?"

Wan Xiang's fair face immediately burned up, she really shouldn't have joked, but now she was made fun of by her sister-in-law!

"No, no, no, I didn't, I just assumed, that's all." Wan Xiang spoke incoherently, shaking her head like a rattle.

Seeing Wanxiang's embarrassment, Yin Chan smiled and lowered his head, and continued to embroider the tiger on his hand, as if raving, and said, "You, if you are pregnant, my sister-in-law will embroider a little tiger for you first, and then embroider the tiger for the baby." In the end, you will always be a child to my sister-in-law."

Xi Wanxiang frowned slightly, and said, "But I'm not a child anymore, and I don't want to be my cousin's child either."

Yin Yang raised his eyes and said with a smirk, "Then what do you want to do?"

Confused for a while.

It wasn't until the dead of night, when the lanterns went off several times, that Yin Tang stopped his work and went to bed rubbing his shoulders.

After saying good night to each other for a long time, Xi Wanxiang looked at her cousin's picturesque eyebrows and eyes and opened her lips lightly.

She said: "I don't want to be a child, I want to grow up quickly and be with my cousin. I, I like you."

Xi Wanxiang felt that she was a coward in this matter.

Such a simple sentence, a simple "like", has to be lingered in the heart and mouth countless times.Like a fool, he only dared to speak after she fell asleep.

Seeing her cousin's sleeping face without any ups and downs, Wan Xiang sighed, although she didn't feel sleepy, she had to close her eyes.

You have to grow up quickly, and let your sister-in-law know what she wants.

The author has something to say: What Wan Xiang didn't expect was that after she fell asleep, the cousin opened her eyes.Yin Chan was so awake, there was no confusion in his eyes at all.

She just quietly looked at Little Wanxiang's sleeping face, and slowly smiled.

I like you too.
