Chapter 65 Old Things

Lin Jinrong said goodbye to Zhiping and Zhiqing in silence, put on the violet mask, and led several women and litchi and Guiyuan, who were obviously in conflict, back to Zhuangzi.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Miao Ya, who had been sent by her to find Lin Shiquan earlier, slipped out of the shadow of the door and squeezed her eyes and said, "Girl, here's the guest. The young master of the Lu family took the little book boy to play in the mountains and rivers. He didn't notice that the bridge collapsed and fell into the river. My brother happened to meet the peach fish when he went to catch them and saved them. At this moment, the wife is talking with the young master, so that you can go there when you come back.

Looking at Miao Ya's relaxed smile, Lin Jinrong knew that Lu Yan did not tell the truth of the matter. Instead of going to Dow's place immediately, he went back to the house and was in a daze at the withered and sprouted plum tree outside the window.

"If the girl doesn't want to go there, why don't you wash your feet and go to sleep? I'll tell my wife that you're tired and go there for dinner?" Litchi didn't know what happened to Lin Jinrong outside today, but when he saw her wet shoes covered with dirt and her gloomy expression, he could also guess how good it would be. Later, when I saw that she sent Miao Ya out to find Lin Shiquan, I guessed a little more - most of Lu Yan's master and servant fell into the water related to her. Seeing Lin Jinrong like this, she subconsciously guessed that she didn't dare to go there.

"Hmm." Lin Jinrong really doesn't want to see Lu Yan's face at this time. She needs to calm down. In addition, after tossing for a long time and climbing high and low, he was really tired. He fell asleep with his head next to the pillow for a short time.

The gloomy sky, the dry ground, the withered yellow reeds, the river temple standing silently in the cold wind, and the disaster victims running around.

The dazzling snow is full of blood, and it is blood-red.

Lychee shouted desperately, "Run, run..."

She fled desperately, her feet hurt so much, and her chest seemed to be burning, burning her internal organs and throat...

" Hiss..." Lin Jinrong sat up in pain and looked at the surrounding environment confusedly.

The sun is slanting in the west, and the outside of the window is green. Under the window, there is a stone-blue half-old stone mat with a white vine sitting on the couch. The celadon carved flower and grass-pattern in the corner is spitting the fragrance of flowers. The peach blossoms are brilliant in the old shrug

She breathed a sigh of relief, subconsciously hugged the quilt, and stared at the plum pattern on the quilt in a daze. Recently, she has been busy with things in Zhuangzi, and she has rarely remembered the past, but the dream just now was so real that she didn't even have the deformation and distortion that often exists in the dream.

She tried her best not to go back to the scene, but the scene always stubbornly appeared in front of her.

The days waiting for Lu Yan were the coldest days in her impression of the two generations. Every day, there are always disaster victims waiting for the boat to tear down the things in the river temple that can make fire and keep warm. Tear off the clothes and curtains on the statue of the river god and cover them, remove the wooden doors, windows and tables, and start a fire in the hall. Boil soup and scones on the fire, full of strange smells and children's cries, old people's humming high and low, men's scolding, women's low complaints.

She and Litchi are lucky, and they don't have to squeeze with those people. When they didn't go out, they hid in the hidden utility room of the river temple. The temple Zhu and his adopted daughter locked the door and piled up a few piles of hay, and the outside world was completely isolated from them. Although there is no warm brazier, the bedding of the little ** is also very thin, but the master and servant are close together, but it is not cold, and there is no need to worry about who will invade them. Although the food is not good, she can eat enough. She is really satisfied.

It's just that she is always worried. Seeing countless people dragging their families back and going, she can't see a familiar face, so she can't inquire about the situation of her family and Lu Yan. It was not until that morning that their eyes were sore that they finally saw a familiar face, a son of the Lu family named Lu Ji.

Although Lu Ji was a child of a side branch and his family was poor, he often went to the Lu family before. Until Lu Lu's death, the Lu family was closed for a long time, so he didn't go. Although she and Lu Ji have not met, they have only met several times, but at such a time of wind and rain and everyone's danger, they are always a little more happy and kinder than usual when they see familiar faces and relatives.

She was surprised to ask Litchi to invite Lu Ji to ask.

When Lu Ji saw their master and servant, he was obviously shocked: "Why is the second sister-in-law here?"

She asked him about her family and Lu Yan with hope. Lu Ji simply told her that the Lin family had also suffered the disaster, but she did not see the Lin family. Speaking of Lu Yan, he looked at her for a long time and said without sighing for a long time, "Second sister-in-law, the situation is very urgent. The bandits are about to come. You'd better not wait. Why don't you come with me first and slowly meet the second brother again. Although I'm not talented, I don't have much ability. At least I can take care of the good care of you two weak women.

She has always been stupid. She didn't understand the meaning of the words, but just shook her head: "No, I promised to wait for your second brother. What if he can't find me?" Second sister-in-law..." Lu Ji sighed and shook his head. He wanted to stop talking, and his face was full of sympathy.

She subconsciously felt scared, tightened her heart, and said in a trembling voice, "What's wrong?"

Lu Ji sighed, "It's okay, it's okay. Just go first and avoid this disaster. I'll help you find the second brother. Keep the green hills without worrying about firewood. It's scary for the bandits to come.

The more he didn't say anything, the more scared she was. She thought that Lu Yan had suffered something wrong and begged him to say it.

"I really can't bear to tell you... But the second brother's method is really not authentic. I saw with my own eyes that he took his third uncle and third aunt to another road in a donkey cart. I'm afraid he has crossed the river now."

This news is like a bolt from the blue. Her mind was blank in an instant. She didn't believe it. Obviously, he gave her most of the valuable jade pendants of his money, and entrusted the temple Zhu to take care of her with a lot of money. He also asked the temple Zhu to help find a boatman. How could he throw her away like this? Is the money and jade pendant left for her to live? Is it also a cover to find a boat? He actually wants her to believe that he will come back?

After that, she only saw that Lu Ji's lips kept moving, as if comforting her, and as if persuading her and Litchi to go with him quickly. Litchi pulled her and shook hard and shouted her name. She reluctantly gathered her spirit and asked Lu Ji with the last hope, "Did you see, who else?"

Lu Ji smiled bitterly: "Sister-in-law, I didn't dare to tell you earlier because I was afraid you wouldn't believe it. Look, I really don't believe it. But why should I lie to you? Let me ask you, does my second brother wear a sky-blue silver rat robe, black leather boots on his feet, and a cyan knot scarf on his head? He grabbed his companion beside him casually: "Let me ask you, did we see Second Brother Lu accompany two old men in a donkey cart to the road to the south the day before yesterday?"

Although she didn't know his companion, the man's expression was very sure: "Yes, we saw it with our own eyes. He even called him, but he pretended not to hear it.

Litchi said in a trembling voice, "Did you read it wrong?"

"Did you see it wrong?" Lu Ji sneered: "We are relatives, not enemies. Why did I lie to you? It's your freedom to follow us. I think they are all clansmen, and you are willing to meddle in this business for the sake of two weak women, otherwise I will eat too much, right?

His companion hurried forward to make a round-up: "Why are you angry? My sister-in-law might as well think about it. The bandits are really coming soon, and it will be too late if they don't leave. You two single women, your wife is young and beautiful. If there is no one to protect you, I'm afraid it's not easy to be considerate. There is no boat here. We have horses, and we can go to the county government in front of us to take a boat..."

She rejected them. She wants to wait a little longer.

Lu Ji persuaded him twice again. He couldn't persuade him and left.

She leaned against Litchi's shoulder and couldn't cry. Litchi comforted her, saying that maybe she was wrong or Lu Ji lied to her. But she thought, how could he read it wrong? She and Lu Ji are also without grievances. I can't think of why Lu Ji lied to her. What's the reason to lie to her?

She and Litchi waited until dusk, when the snow fell all over the ground, when there were fewer and fewer people, and finally they didn't wait for Lu Yan. Waiting is the bandit, and what is waiting is death.

That's all! Lin Jinrong rubbed his forehead tiredly, turned over and got out of bed, forbade him to think further.

Gui Yuan came in with a smile and said with a smile, "Girl, my wife has asked me to ask twice. Have you slept well?"

Lin Jinrong said sullenly, "What are you asking?"

Guiyuan didn't stop laughing: "Why don't you go there? Are you not feeling well? Do you want to ask Mr. Shui to help you pulse?

"I'm fine." Lin Jinrong couldn't help shivering at the thought of the extremely unpleasant, numb, sour and bitter medicine that he had asked Mr. Shui to prescribe because of the irregularity of the moon earlier. No wonder Master Lin complained that the medicine was bad at the beginning, and it was really bad. It's really hard for Dow to eat for so many years without frowning.

"The young master caught a cold, and Mr. Shui opened the prescription. They are going to live in our village for two days. The wife asked the cousin about Mr. Zhu. Hearing that, it seemed that we wanted our seventh young master to study with Mr. Zhu.

This girl, even knows what Tao and Lu Yan said. She has been haunting Tao's yard 100% of the time when she was asleep, and went to see Lu Yan. Lin Jinrong frowned unhappily: "That's also a few years later. The seventh young master is still so young, but just opened, Mr. Zhu will not accept it.

She had thought about this when she heard the Tiehuai family mention Zhu Mengqi, but considering that Lin Shenzhi was too young, it was better to follow Mr. Lin. It was also after the age of ten to worship, so she didn't mention it.
