A carriage was walking slowly on the official road to the capital against the cold morning wind. The old horse was broken and the carriage looked like an ordinary one. The man driving the carriage was also a rough and tumble man who could not be found in the crowd. , no one even has the desire to take a second look, and no one would think that there might be anything valuable inside.
Naturally, there were no valuable items in the carriage, only a person slumped in the carriage.
The famous murderer left Pingcheng quietly and appeared on the streets of the capital on a rainy night.
From then on, there was a beggar who was deaf, dumb and stupid in the capital.
It’s the Laba solstice again, and today is a rare warm sun. The long-lost sunshine brings a little warmth to the long-frozen earth. In the courtyard of the Xiao family, Mrs. Song spread a thick cotton ball on the stone bench, and the family gathered around the stone table, eating melon seeds and fruits under the sun, chatting about everyday things, and the topic of discussion was naturally the tenth day of the lunar month. How to celebrate Xiao Ming and Xiao Han’s birthday.
In the blink of an eye, both of them were fourteen years old.
There was a swing made of flowers under a big tree in the distance. Xiao Ming, the person involved, was sitting on it and looking at letters from afar. The swing was swaying, which showed that she was in a good mood at the moment.
There is a leisurely and leisurely feeling of being aloof, as if everything has nothing to do with her.
She looked through the letters sent from the capital, including those from Su Waner and Chen Yuanze. Su Waner married the third son of Duke Xu at the beginning of the year. She is now three months pregnant. She is pregnant in less than a year. It is really gratifying. Congratulations. Between the lines, Su Waner revealed her joyful anticipation for the fetus in her belly and her longing for Xiao Ming, her younger sister. She hoped that Xiao Ming could go to the capital to reunite with her.
As a sister, Xiao Ming was naturally happy to have a son, but as a doctor, she had nothing to worry about.
Giving birth is like going through hell for a woman.
If Su Waner's letter made Xiao Ming feel happy and worried at the same time, then the dozen or so pages of trembling letter from Chen Yuanze's little friend made Xiao Ming feel tired and helpless.
Even though he has been away for a year, he is still nagging as always. Today he has read a few books, and tomorrow he will be tested by his father on his homework, or he will have a horse fight with so-and-so in the park, or his grandmother will reward him with something good, or he will refuse. The girl who fell in love with her mother was given a meal of fried meat with bamboo shoots by her majestic father and asked her to rush to save him...
Xiao Ming just wanted to sigh, this is how Chen Yuanze's version of Chen Seng was trained...
Xiao Ming raised her head and looked to the north, which was the direction of the capital. Brother Min's letters one after another were like a series of life-threatening calls. The trip to the capital was not far away!
"Xiao Ming, how about we go back to the city to have a lively birthday party?" Jiang Xiangyuan came to her side and suggested that she had thought of many plans for this birthday, provided that the real master returned to the city.
"Rent a painting studio and go on a lake tour, there are many." Jiang Xiangyuan got excited when she thought of going on a lake tour. This was the best idea she had ever thought of.
Mother Yi glanced at Xiao Ming and said nothing. Miss Jiang’s suggestion was very good. Her girl is as beautiful as a flower, has a good temper, is knowledgeable, and has superb medical skills that no one can match. Mother Yi can shout proudly. , even the ladies from aristocratic families who have been carefully cultivated in the capital are not as dignified and elegant as her girls, and none of them can earn money.
She thought that it started with appearance being more important than talent and being loyal to character. This probably described the girls in her family, like this.
Mother Yi Xinchen silently counted the girl's 100 good qualities, automatically ignoring the one that hurt someone that day. That was the secret she kept in her heart forever, not one of them.
Can her girl hit someone? Haha, it doesn't exist.
Privately, Yi's mother agreed a million with Jiang Xiangyuan's proposal. As a little girl, she should be more active and walk around to have fun. How could she stay bored in the house all day long? She would have no chance to go out after she leaves the government.
However, peach blossoms are still there, things are different and people are different, and today is different from last year.
Sure enough, Xiao Ming's voice rang out the next moment: "Birthday? It's not necessary. I'm tired after going back and forth."
Haha, when is her girl afraid of the word tired?
Now that the Xia family is gone, Mr. Shi is gone, and Brother Han is wandering around, it's strange how happy the birthday girl can be.
well! After all, this day is not as lively as it used to be.
Mother Yi was feeling sad here, sighing secretly in her heart, but Jiang Xiangyuan was full of energy over there. She was doing homework every day until her hands cramped, and she finally had a birthday to celebrate, so she just refused.
Is it easy for her?
"Go! Go! I haven't entered the city for several days." Jiang Xiangyuan was reluctant, her pink little mouth pouted, and she instantly turned on the coquettish mode.
If it was Xiao Yu or Yun Ling acting cute, coquettish, etc., Xiao Ming would definitely be right; unfortunately, Jiang Xiangyuan looks fresh and amiable, but is actually a violent woman on the inside...
Haha, Xiao Ming must be unmoved.
"I have an appointment the day after tomorrow and I can't go." Xiao Ming refused bluntly and refused to give a chance.
Nani? Jiang Xiangyuan was dumbfounded. Who did she have an appointment with? Why didn't she know that it was the way people make appointments after dusk with Liu Xiaotou on the moon?
That's right, Jiang Xiangyuan automatically figured it out.
"It's Xia Zhiyan." Xiao Ming replied briefly, ignoring someone who was messy in the wind.
Thinking of that handsome young boy, Jiang Xiangyuan understood. As expected, she was full of...
Seeing Jiang Xiangyuan's look, Xiao Ming helplessly hit her on the head with the letter: "Where did you think you were going? You were treating his leg injury."
The reason why Xia Zhiyan was disabled was entirely due to the lack of timely treatment after the injury, and also because he met a quack doctor who was careless and careless in setting bones. If he had met a good doctor, he would not be like this.
And treating his leg was the condition she had to convince him in the first place.
When Xia Zhiyan had the courage to stand up and identify the Huang family, the reputation of the Huang family was ruined. The Huang family and the Chen family turned against each other after the marriage was not as good as the Huang family. The Huang family had a daughter who became pregnant out of wedlock, which was well-known in Pingcheng, and rumors were flying everywhere.
I thought that the Huang family would be devastated by this, but it didn't happen.
Everyone underestimated Huang Jiaoyu's ability to withstand pressure. He was working hard to find a new home for his daughter, and finally, after choosing among thousands, he turned his attention to Xia Zhiyan again.
Because Xia Zhiyan has a good temperament, good looks, and good knowledge, even if he has no hope in the imperial examination, he can still be a private school teacher who can serve as a teacher. You must know that private school teachers can also be famous all over the world.
Naturally, such a good potential stock is a suitable successor, so Huang Jiaoyu shamelessly came to discuss the marriage.
Xia Zhiyan was oppressed by Huang Jiaoyu, who was once a teacher and always a father. He was just one step away from getting married, so Xia Zhiyan escaped one night when it was dark and windy.
If you don’t run away now, when will you wait?
Xia Zhiyan ran away without saying a word. Huang Jiaoyu was so angry that one Buddha left his body and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. But there was nothing he could do. He couldn't wait! If we wait any longer, my daughter will have a big belly and won’t be able to wear wedding clothes.
As a last resort, the daughter of the Huang family had no choice but to marry far away, to a widower who was over forty years old, and directly became a mother to a son of the same age.
Xiao Ming lamented that even though Huang Jiaoyu was not good at all, he was qualified as a father. He loved and protected his daughter. Even though he had been defeated, even if he could no longer protect himself, he was still under pressure to protect his daughter. Find a way out.
Compared with those families who let their unmarried and pregnant daughters hang with a rope, he was a great father.
The daughter of the Huang family got married, Xia Zhiyan also came back, and the delayed operation was finally put on the schedule.
