Chapter 217: Things about the Wei Mansion (Second update)
Mrs. Cui shook her head and said: "It's too far away, so they probably didn't receive the news."
Mrs. Cui looked a little dazed.
Looking at Mrs. Cui's expression, Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mom, you miss them."
Mrs. Cui had a sad look on her face and said, "How can I not think about it?"
“But far away, the Cui family has been sentenced to exile again, and I don’t know if I can see them again.”
“So Zhiluo, your parents, brothers and sisters live close to each other, and my mother supports you to visit them often.”
Jiang Zhiluo felt a little sad when she heard Mrs. Cui's words.
“My mother is marrying far away, so it will be a bit hard for me.”
Mrs. Cui said: "Fortunately, the Cui family are all very good, and the family tradition is also very good. My father-in-law is sensible, and my mother-in-law looks strong, but she is very kind to me. When I went to the Cui family, my mother-in-law delegated power to me and let me take charge." "Zhongfu, my husband understands me and respects me, and my children are filial."
“It’s just that we are far away from my parents’ home, but my brother and sister-in-law came to see how I was doing, so I felt relieved.”
“But I don’t know how they are doing now. If they are affected, there is nothing the Yang family can do.”
“The aristocratic family is no longer the same as before. The status of the aristocratic family has been weakened a lot in the past hundred years.”
Jiang Zhiluo listened carefully to Mrs. Cui's words, and she understood a little more about the Cui family.
After a conversation with Mrs. Cui, Jiang Zhiluo packed her things and went to Xingshan Village.
She also has surgical tools in her space.
She found this to be made by a blacksmith.
Fortunately, she had earned thirty taels of silver from Jian's house, and she spent some of it to build a complete set of surgical tools and hidden weapons for self-defense.
These alone cost a lot of money
But I also made some money during this period.
After deducting the daily expenses from the money she earned, plus the money she had saved before, she now has twenty-one taels of silver in her hand.
Her father had been using medicine on his feet and legs for so long that he could undergo surgery.
Jiang Zhiluo took her things and went to Xingshan Village.
It was just past noon when we passed by, and only Dad and Xuanxuan were at home.
Jiang Xiangchuan was very happy when he saw his daughter coming, "My daughter is here, sit down quickly, daddy will give you some water."
Speaking of conditioned reflex, I got up and poured water.
“Dad, don’t move your legs.”
Xuanxuan saw Jiang Zhiluo and ran over excitedly, "Sister, sister..."
Jiang Zhiluo picked him up smoothly.
She could feel that Xuanxuan had become a little darker, and she seemed to have grown taller.
It can be seen that if the family eats well during this period and keeps up with nutrition, it will be easier to grow taller.
Jiang Zhiluo took out the egg yolk cake for Xuan Xuan to eat.
“We’ll eat together when mother and brothers and sisters come back.”
Jiang Zhiluo touched his hair and said, "You are so sensible."
“Dad, where are mom and the others?”
Jiang Xiangchuan said: "Today there is a market in Yangliu Village, and your mother is taking your brothers and sisters to set up a stall to sell things."
“I have bad legs, so I am making an umbrella at home.”
Speaking of umbrellas, Jiang Zhiluo saw something lying next to her, "Dad, have you made an umbrella?"
Jiang Xiangchuan smiled and said, "Well, it's done. I'll keep these three for you, your mother-in-law, and the crane."
“I kept two umbrellas at home and six umbrellas, and your mother sold them at the market.”
Xuanxuan hugged Jiang Zhiluo's neck and said, "Sister, last time I went to the market, all the umbrellas made by dad were sold."
Jiang Xiangchuan nodded and said happily: "I just finished making umbrellas last time I went to the market. Your mother and the others took five umbrellas to set up a stall. Our umbrellas are cheaper, so they are easy to sell."
Jiang Zhiluo put Xuanxuan down, picked up the umbrella over there, opened it, and was amazed when she saw the lotus painting on the umbrella, "Dad, who painted the lotus so beautifully?"
“The umbrella surface must be beautiful, so people are willing to buy umbrellas.”
She has also seen umbrellas in grocery stores and markets in town. The umbrellas have very simple patterns, some have no patterns at all, and they only cost 300 cents each.
Xuanxuan said: "My mother painted it, my mother painted it."
“What about this color?”
“My mother picked some leaves on the mountain and there were colors on them, so she pounded out the juice and painted on them with a pen.”
Hearing this, Jiang Zhiluo's expression changed, "Mom can also draw."
She felt more and more that her mother was not an ordinary woman. “Dad, my mother has learned painting before?”
Jiang Xiangchuan lowered his head and explained in a low voice: "Your grandpa is a down-and-out scholar. He can read, write and draw. Your mother has followed him since she was a child."
Jiang Zhiluo touched her chin, she didn't believe it.
Her father lowered his head and did not dare to look at her expression, fearing that she would notice something.
Her father is an honest man and is not very good at lying.
She always felt that her parents had some background.
As if thinking of something, Jiang Zhiluo said: "Dad, I don't know what's going on lately. I always dream about a little girl."
“A little girl of four or five years old.”
Jiang Xiangchuan paused in his movements, "What did you say you were dreaming about?"
Jiang Xiangchuan's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it.
There was even a trace of fear and worry in his eyes.
Jiang Zhiluo is best at observing subtle expressions.
Looking at her father, she felt that he was nervous.
But he is nervous and afraid of something.
“Dad, I said I dreamed of a four or five-year-old little girl who looked a bit like me when I was a child.”
Although she has no memory of before the age of six.
But after the age of six, although it was vague, she also looked in the bronze mirror and probably knew what she looked like when she was a child.
A bit like that little girl, but not quite the same.
She checked her own pulse and found no poison.
So she became even more confused.
So she wanted to ask tentatively.
Judging from her father's reaction, it was obvious that something was wrong.
Jiang Xiangchuan's face turned pale, he opened his mouth and said, "You...you, how could you dream of this?"
“Yes, Dad, I think it’s quite strange. I dreamed that a little girl lived in a mansion. It was very big, and there was a General Wei mansion hanging on it..."
“Bata!”
The umbrella frame Jiang Xiangchuan was holding suddenly fell to the ground.
His hands trembled.
Jiang Zhiluo said: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
“I...I’m nothing!”
At this moment, Jiang Xiangchuan's mind was very confused.
But when picking up things, he quickly calmed down.
“Zhiluo, this is just a dream, don’t think too much about it.”
Jiang Zhiluo saw her father's expression change so quickly and thought that her father must not be an ordinary person.
This kind of reaction ability, especially the ability to calm down so quickly, is beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.
At first she didn't think it was anything.
But her father's reaction made her realize that this little girl from Wei Mansion might have some connection with her.
Otherwise, she would not have dreamed about what happened in Weiwei Mansion.
You should know that there is no one in General Wei's mansion now.
The Wei family was ransacked and executed. That was eight or nine years ago.
It seemed like she wanted to check on the Wei family.
However, the Wei family's affairs seemed to be taboo in Yun State, so she could only check it secretly.
Or ask Cui Hejin.
At this moment, the voices of my mother and brothers and sisters came from the door.
“The flowers my mother painted are so beautiful, that’s why our umbrellas sell so well.”
“It’s because we sell them twenty cents cheaper than other umbrellas…”
