Xun'er jumped out of the side door of Xin'an Mansion, Shi Jin followed behind him inch by inch, and as soon as the two of them took a few steps, they saw Yan Niang standing at the end of the alley, staring at a handkerchief in her hand.
"Yan Niang."
Xun'er screamed affectionately, and then ran quickly to her, hooked his head to look at the handkerchief in her hand, and asked puzzledly, "What kind of bird is this?"
It has a blue feather, which is so beautiful. ” Shi Jin also stepped forward, he looked at the handkerchief, his lips opened but slowly closed, he scratched his head, and then continued Xun'er's words, "Miss Yan, don't talk about Xun'er, even if I have grown so big, I have never seen this kind of bird, you see its claws, red as blood." ” Yan Niang touched Xun'er's head, then glanced at Shi Jin, and said slowly, "This is Jingwei." ” "Jingwei?
That reclaimed Jingwei?
Xun'er asked with wide eyes.
"Xun'er knows a lot," Yan Niang said softly, "Jingwei's reclamation seems to be futile, like a grasshopper shaking a tree, but her perseverance is greater than the sea." ” "Does Yan Niang also like Jingwei?"
Xun'er asked in a milky voice again.
Yan Niang didn't answer him, she asked with a smile, "It's a pity that my sister is not here, why didn't she send you to the academy?"
” "She has official business, and she was sent by her father to that town."
"Yuquan Town."
Shi Jin reminded him later.
"Yuquan Town?"
Yan Niang's face turned pale, and she squinted her eyes at the sky, as if she wanted to penetrate the sky, "That's a place with a story." ” "Did anything happen there?"
Xun'er held her chin and waited for her to continue, but Yan Niang's complexion returned to her usual light and breezy appearance, and she flicked a finger on his forehead, "I'll tell you another day, let's go quickly, beware of being scolded by Mr. if you are late." ” Jiang Xixi and Aunt Yang walked through the courtyards, and followed the maid who led the way to the front hall of the Jing Mansion, which was built extremely exquisitely, with the tiles on the roof pressed as dense as fish scales, the green pine eaves, and the jade fence around the building.
The gold-topped stone walls of the house are painted with patterns of flowers, fish, birds and beasts, which are colorful, and the floor is covered with a carpet of satin and brocade, which is extremely luxurious.
Jiang Xixi looked into the depths of the room and found that there was an elderly man sitting on the huge white marble chair inside, he was over the age of six, with white eyebrows and white beard, but a pair of eyes were very bright, and his pupils were black and shining, staring at the account book in his hand without blinking, like an eagle hovering in the air searching for prey.
The Miss Jing he met last night stood beside him, pointing to the account book and whispering something.
"Master, the sister-in-law of the Yang family and her sister-in-law are here."
After the little maid finished reporting, she walked to the side.
When the old man heard this, he put down the account book and stood up, he was long and jade, and the majesty in his eyes turned into full of kindness and thoughtfulness the moment he touched the two women standing in the room.
"Xiao Yu has already told me what happened to the Yang family, Yang Shufu is missing, leaving your mother and son with nothing to rely on, it's really pitiful.
It's better to live in Jingfu, the flood has just receded, and I am also lacking a few people here to clean up, and when you find another way out, it's not too late to leave, as for Yang Shufu, I will let people go to Qiu Xingshan to look for it again, I really can't find anyone to go to Xin'an Mansion to clarify the case, what do you think?
” Aunt Yang immediately knelt down and kowtowed a few times on the ground, "Jing Dashan is really a god in the sky, no, even the gods can't compare to you as benevolent, but my mouth should be gone, so I don't have to spend effort to go up the mountain to find someone." ” "Oh?
Why?
Jing Yunlai walked up to the two of them and reached out to help Aunt Yang up.
"My sister went to the mountain last night and found half of his sweat towel......
"Sister-in-law Yang couldn't go on, covered her face and cried one after another.
Jing Yunlai sighed and turned his gaze to Jiang Xixi, "Girl, let's talk about it, who did Yang Orion meet in Qiu Xingshan, and there was only this half of a sweat towel left. ” Jiang Xixi raised his head and looked directly into his gaze, "I'm afraid that what he met is not a person." ” Jing Yunlai frowned, "Not human?"
Is it a beast?
” Jiang Xixi shook his head lightly, "It's not like, the thing I encountered last night was very fierce, a hundred times more ferocious than a beast, but it would laugh like a child."
And it can hide under a weed, it must be small, like a three- or four-year-old child, such a small animal, but it can eat only a little scrap of people, I really can't deduce what it is. ” Hearing her say this, the little maid next to her trembled fiercely.
Miss Jing was far calmer than her, she walked up to Jiang Xixi's side and asked softly, "If that thing is really as powerful as the girl said, how did you escape from the mountain?"
She looked at her father, and continued, "Could it be that the girl was overly frightened, and that the sky was unknown, that she had taken the wild creatures of the mountains for bloodthirsty monsters?"
” Jiang Xixi couldn't tell them that she escaped with a lot of kung fu, so she couldn't explain more, and even she didn't figure out what she encountered in Qiu Xingshan last night.
She could only vaguely agree, ostensibly agreeing with Miss Jing's statement, but when she looked at Jing Yunlai, she found that his expression was much more serious than her daughter, and the essence in his eyes was removed, revealing the fatigue and vicissitudes that should be at this age.
"Dad, isn't Xin'an Mansion going to send someone over these days, why don't we make it clear about Yang Orion's disappearance at that time, and see how the government decides."
Miss Jing asked softly.
Hearing his daughter's words, Jing Yunlai woke up like a dream, he nodded, "I forgot about this, so I will go to Xin'an City again in the province," he looked at Aunt Yang, "You can live here with peace of mind, and leave the rest to me, I believe that the government will give you an explanation to the Yang family." ” Jiang Xixi followed Aunt Yang out of the front hall, a figure walked from the side coldly, almost bumped into her, she raised her head, and found that it was a young man, his eyebrows and eyes were quite similar to Jing Yun's next life, but his eyes were dull and indifferent, lacking the breath that a living person should have.
Jiang Xixi watched him walk into the front hall before asking, "Could it be Jing Gongzi who went in just now?"
” Aunt Yang nodded, "You can see it, this Jing Gongzi is very similar to his father, and he is also Zhou Zheng, but it's a pity that he is a mute." ”
