spring cloud warm

Chapter 501 Return to Yang
The animal charcoal is scarlet, and spices are sprinkled in the charcoal basin, making the room warm and fragrant.

Huo Tian asked the woman to sit down and ordered someone to bring her a cup of hot tea.

The woman held the teacup in both hands, her head drooping.

Everything here is too gorgeous, even if it's just the carpet under her feet, she dare not actually step on it.

But on the clean and rich carpet, there was an out of place muddy water mark, which was left when she walked in.

Her shoes were so worn out, so dirty and wet, that it made her feel even more ashamed.

Huo Tian opened a box and took out half a jade pendant from inside.

The two halves of the jade pendant are facing each other, and the broken marks match, which is exactly the same.

"This half piece of jade pendant was given to me by Uncle Fu before his death. He said it was evidence of recognition with his family." Huo Tian put down the jade pendant and said to the woman in a gentle tone, "It's just that you came to Beijing alone? Your family Woolen cloth?"

The woman was saddened when she heard this, and replied in a low voice: "As for the father-in-law, my grandmother died less than ten years after my grandfather joined the army.

My parents defected to my uncle and did some small business to make ends meet.A few years ago, my father also passed away, leaving me and my mother alone.

My mother has also been ill since last year, and my aunt was persuaded to give me as a concubine to an old wealthy local businessman.

My mother was naturally reluctant, but she was seriously ill and could not protect me at all.

Before he died, he took out the half of the jade pendant and told me to go to Beijing to find Mr. Huo.

She guessed that my grandfather was probably gone, but she thought that you might be able to take me in because of the old subordinate's affection. "

"Uncle Fu is indeed gone," Huo Tian was also very sad when he mentioned it, "Why didn't you come earlier? I have been looking for Uncle Fu's family, but unfortunately the personnel changes, I have not found your whereabouts."

"As long as we can live on, we absolutely don't want to cause trouble to the father-in-law." The woman cried and said, "Now there is really no other way."

"You can feel at ease here, when you meet Madam later, she will settle you down." Huo Tian said, "After all, you will be in the inner house in the future, and everything will be up to Madam."

After finishing speaking, he ordered someone to take the woman to Jiang Nuan.

Two servant girls came up and very politely asked the woman to follow them to see his wife.

Jiang Nuan also heard that she was Uncle Fu's granddaughter, so she asked someone to bring her in.

"You have suffered along the way, don't think too much when you get here. I don't know your name, how old are you?" Jiang Nuan asked with a smile.

"Returning to Madam, the girl is sixteen this year, and she is called Shuang Lian." The woman boldly raised her head and glanced at Jiang Nuan, then quickly lowered her head.

Jiang Nuan saw that the girl's body was tattered and her color was not the same. She must have been cold and hungry.

He hurriedly said to her: "Sister Shuang Lian, you don't have to be polite, just call me sister from now on.

I won't talk to you about family matters first, the important thing is to let them take you down to change into clean and warm clothes, shoes and socks, and then have a good bowl of hot noodle soup.

After you are full, take a hot bath, and then ask a doctor to come and see if you need to take some medicine.

In such cold weather, you have driven such a long way alone.Not to mention starving and freezing, I must be anxious in my heart.

Now once settled down, it is often easy to get sick.This is careless. "

Jiang Nuan is a solid heart, not to mention Uncle Fu is Huo Tian's benefactor, and this girl is really pitiful.

Since Huo Tian entrusted him to her, she naturally couldn't neglect her.

The servants in the mansion took care of her with great care, because they didn't have time to make clothes for her, so they found clothes of Zhui Zi's similar stature.

"Sister Shuanglian, although these are my clothes, they have never been worn on my body. They are all gifts from my wife. If you don't dislike them, you can wear them first!" The pendant held a stack of clothes, including underwear, coats, shoes and socks. All brand new.

Even more carefully prepared such small odds and ends as handkerchiefs and sweat towels.

"Thank you, sister! I don't want to dislike you, how can I wear such good clothes?" Shuang Lian said with a blushing face.

"You mustn't say that, the father-in-law and the wife look at you differently, how can we let you be wronged?" Zhuizi smiled and pushed her to change the clothes first.

Here Huo Tian also came to Jiang's greenhouse, and the husband and wife had dinner together.

Jiang Nuan said: "I have already asked Zhuizi to take Shuang Lian to eat and take a bath, and I will ask the doctor to come and see later, if there is any discomfort, I will treat her as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your hard work," Huo Tian said, "I don't want to ask too much, because men and women are different after all."

"I don't know how the father-in-law plans to arrange Shuang Lian?" Jiang Nuan was a little undecided, "She is not too young, so I can't directly ask her what her plan is, it seems to be disgusting.

You know I'm not good at planning for others, if I do something bad again with good intentions, wouldn't it be a disappointment to Fu Bo's kindness? "

"Actually, I'm still quite undecided," Huo Tian said, "Don't be in a hurry, let her stay temporarily, and take a look at her character and temperament."

Jiang Nuan nodded, it wasn't that they didn't want to repay the favor, it was just that they couldn't make up their minds at the moment, what was the best way to treat Shuang Lian.

It was already dark when Shuang Lian came into the mansion, and after she had eaten and bathed before seeing the doctor, it was already late at night.

Wan's mother came over to deliver a message in person: "Madam knows that Miss Shuang Lian is running all the way, and besides, it's getting late, please go to bed quickly, and talk to me tomorrow.

He also said that the girl must not see outsiders, if there is something missing, or if there is something uncomfortable, just tell the waiter.

Or if the person who serves you is too tired, just tell me, my old lady will definitely teach you a lesson. "

Knowing that Mama Wan is the mother in charge of the house, Shuang Lian hurriedly stood up and replied, "Shuang Lian really dare not be the one, the sisters and sisters here treat me very well, but I am causing trouble for everyone.

I am the same as everyone else, but the father-in-law and wife took me in because of their mercy.

All the mothers, sisters and sisters looked at me pitifully and took good care of me.

It's a pity that I'm penniless and incompetent, so I can't repay everyone, I feel very ashamed. "

After hearing this, Wan's mother said: "Miss is serious, we should. Ladies, let's rest early! It's getting late."

But Shuang Lian sent her and Zhui Zi outside the door before returning.

On the way back, Zhuizi said: "This girl is really good at talking, but she is not usually appropriate."

Mama Wan didn't speak at first, and she walked for a while before opening her mouth: "It takes a long time to see people's hearts, and after a while, you can see whether she has the same heart and mouth or just a clever mouth.

But she has a special status, and it's not something we talk about casually.Let's wait and see! "

On the second day, Shuang Lian got up early, followed her little maid to comb her hair, and brought her over to say hello to Jiang Nuan.

Jiang Nuan saw that she was well dressed and her complexion was much better than yesterday, so she couldn't help but happily said: "My father-in-law has gone to court, you can have breakfast with me! Go back and ask them to go shopping with you and see the excitement of the capital." .”
