Chapter 276

The morning breeze blows, and the bluestone steps are covered with yellow-green jujube flowers. The small flowers are like rice grains, but when you look closely, they have complete stamens and petals, delicate and lovely.

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl was sitting on the steps, her complexion was as rosy as the morning glow, her eyes were as bright as stars embedded in them, her good complexion could only be compared to Xinhe after the rain and Fresh Peach Chenglu.

The little girl looked up at the jujube tree, sighed and said in a low voice, "This year's jujubes will not be available."

At this time, a little maid wearing a green skirt and jacket came over and said to the little girl: "Miss is indeed here, Sister Lingdang's plan is really good!"

The little girl turned her face sideways, with a sad expression on her face: "Did my aunt call me over?"

"It's time to eat," the little maid came over and helped her young lady up: "The comforting noodles are ready, and they won't taste good after a long time."

The little girl was dragged out by the servant girl, her footsteps were a little hesitant, she turned her head to look at the jujube tree in the courtyard, and reluctantly sniffed the seemingly invisible fragrance.

In the main room in the backyard, his wife, Yu Hanying, was exhorting the old and the young and the two servants: "Mother Sang, Brother Nuan was brought up by you since childhood, and you are also the oldest accompanying her to Beijing this time. Although I am her My aunt, but she has been in our house since she was one year old, and my poor sister left early, she is just like my daughter. This time the Jiang family sent someone to pick them up, and I can see that those people make sense , and also inquired about the virtuous reputation of the Meng family, but after all, it was through the belly. When you get there, you must think about everything in your head, and don't let Brother Nuan suffer. "

"Ma'am, don't worry, since my wife is here, we girls must not be bullied!" Sang's mother patted her chest and said.

She is about fifty years old, with a strong body and a strong body. It can be seen that she is a hardworking person who has worked all year round.

After Yu Hanying finished giving instructions, Mama Sang said to the servant girl, Lingdang: "My good boy, you are the most stable even though you are young. Brother Nuan, this child is honest and has a quick temper. You have to persuade her not to let her Small things lose big."

The maid named Ling Dang was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with single eyebrows and narrow eyes, calm and docile.

She was a child of the Yu family, and she could not speak when she was five years old, so her mother tied a bell around her body to make it easier to find.

It is also because of this that the original nickname is no longer called, and everyone calls her Bell.

"Madam's advice, Ling Dang has written it down." Ling Dang's voice was soft and slow, as if she was never in a hurry.

"Ma'am, the people from Jiang's family have already prepared the car, and have been waiting outside the door for a while." Yu Hanying's maid, Xiao Chun'er, walked in and said.

"Miss, have you finished your meal yet?" Yu Hanying asked, "Don't tell her to go on the road hungry."

"If you go back to the wife, you've already finished eating." Xiao Chun'er came over from there, so she naturally knew: "The eldest and young masters are both there, and they are reluctant to let the girl go, and everyone is trying to persuade them."

Yu Hanying sighed and stood up. Ever since his father, General Yu Lie of Rongwei, died in Yanmen, his family returned to their hometown in Dengzhou from the capital.

There were only three sisters in their family and no brothers. The eldest sister married to the Lu family, and the second sister married to the Jiang family. She was the youngest, so she recruited an orphan who had no father or mother in her hometown.

At that time, the second sister was weak due to miscarriage, and the brother-in-law happened to be released to Minzhou. The road to Minzhou was not only long but also rugged.They worried that the second sister would not be able to bear it, so they let her stay with her niece Jiang Nuan at her parents' house.

Less than two years later, the second sister died of illness, leaving only a daughter.

At that time, the elder sister's family was not around, and Yu Hanying took care of the orphan girl under the care of her mother and devoted herself to it.

Fortunately, her husband, Qu Maolin, is a sincere gentleman. Although he is a rough man, he is very filial and kind. The husband and wife have two sons, but Jiang Nuan is the first to eat and use.

Now Jiang Nuan's father has returned to the capital, and Jiang Nuan is also 15 years old, reaching the age to talk about marriage.

The Jiang family paid tribute several times, but this time they directly sent someone to pick him up.

No matter how reluctant Yu Hanying and his wife were, they had to let go.

After all, Jiang Nuan is the young lady of the Jiang family. Although her mother is gone, her biological father is still there. As an aunt, she can only retreat.

This child Jiang Nuan is really sweet, she has never been so delicate and small like ordinary girls, she is very filial to the elders in the family, and she loves her two younger brothers very much.

So now that she is leaving, the two cousins ​​are reluctant to say anything, and have been begging their parents not to let her go these days.

Yu Hanying and his wife explained a lot of truths, but they just couldn't listen to them, they were crying and making noise, and now they must be fighting again.

Sure enough, when Yu Hanying came to Jiang Nuan's house, she saw two sons, Yu Dingguo and Yu Dingbang, one sitting on the packed luggage, and the other blocking the door.

"You two are not allowed to mess around! If you are disobedient, your father will make a move!" Yu Hanying is already the tempered one among the three sisters, but it is still very scary when she gets angry.

"Don't let my sister go! Send those servants of the Jiang family away!" Yu Dingguo jumped up and said, "My sister lives well in our house, why should they rob her?!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, kid! Your uncle is your sister's own father, how can he be called robbery?" Yu Hanying went up to tear her son away, and asked the servants to carry the luggage out.

The younger son simply lay on the ground and rolled over, crying and yelling not to let his sister go.

At this time, Jiang Nuan also cried into tears, and stepped forward to hug the little cousin.

This child has been kissing her since he was a child. The difference between the two is nearly ten years old. When he can't walk, he always likes to ask her to hug him.

"Good Dingbang, my sister is also reluctant to part with you." Jiang Nuan said while wiping her tears for her little cousin: "When my sister arrives in the capital, I will buy a lot of fun things for you to send back to you."

"I don't want fun, I don't want my sister to go to the capital. Good sister, don't go. In autumn, we two will still be playing dates together." Yu Dingbang stretched out his little hand to wipe Jiang Nuan's tears. He knew, My sister likes eating jujubes the most.

The jujube tree in the north courtyard was planted by Jiang Nuan's grandfather, General Yu, and it has been almost 40 years now.

But the Yu family took good care of it, so even though it is an old tree, it still bears a lot of fruit every year.

Yu Hanying asked the servants of the family to take the two sons away forcibly, took Jiang Nuan's hand and said in a low voice: "Be careful on the road, spend whatever money you have with you, and write to me if you don't have enough. Your father and the others will return It’s been four or five years in Beijing, and I was going to pick you up earlier, but at that time your grandmother was seriously ill, and I was afraid that you might not see her for the last time. After that, you made up your mind to keep a filial piety for your grandmother for three years. Now that the filial piety period has expired, don’t go there anymore But it can’t be said.”
