Jiang's father felt that the story told today was very good, and it had the same flavor as what he heard in his hometown county.
It's a pity that there are not many people in the capital who understand, and most of them just listen to the excitement, which really makes him feel very lonely and has few close friends!
He was humming the tune he just heard and thinking about what to eat for lunch. At this moment, he regretted not buying some dried tofu when he passed by the tofu shop.
The daughter-in-law at home is really stingy. If she were to see the dried tofu she bought outside, she would definitely say that she was wasting her money.
After all, this is something you can make at home.
but……
Jiang's father had no choice but to complain. The dried tofu made by his wife was indeed not as delicious as the ones bought from outside. How could he make his wife accept this?
Jiang's father was a little confused for a while.
At this moment, he suddenly saw someone standing at the end of the alley.
To be precise, there was a woman standing there. She was young and dressed in snow-white clothes, as if there was no dust on them. She just stood there, looking at herself from a distance.
Jiang's father looked around and then behind him, but saw no one else there.
Only then was he sure that the woman's target was him. He took two steps forward and asked uncertainly: "Girl, are you..."
Xizhu gently pushed Jiang Shuhua, and Jiang Shuhua took a step forward, but her eyes turned red all of a sudden, "Old sir, I...I'm looking for you."
The voice was soft and waxy. Father Jiang felt a little uncomfortable, so he subconsciously slowed down his voice, "Are you... lost? Hey! This is in the capital, don't worry, just go out of this alley.
, keep walking and you will reach the street. There are patrolling officers and soldiers on the street. Just ask people where you want to go!"
Father Jiang chuckled, and then pointed to the power fence on her head, "Hurry up and put this down. Although we are in the capital, there are still some people with evil intentions. Girl, you are good-looking, so you have to protect yourself."
"
Jiang Shuhua did not move, but looked at him steadily.
Jiang's father hesitated a little, thinking to himself, could this beautiful little girl have a brain problem?
This was difficult to handle. He glanced at the baggage behind him. There was also a bag of sugar, which his wife wanted for pickled radish. She had been urging her to deliver it yesterday. He was in a hurry to deliver it!
But……
Hey, save a life!
Jiang's father made up his mind and asked with a smile: "Where is the girl's house? How about I give you a ride? When you see the officers and soldiers, you can follow them."
Jiang Shuhua looked at the man in front of her and didn't think clearly about what she wanted to say to him for a long time.
Xizhu couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him softly: "Master, you have to tell him who you are!"
Jiang Shuhua was very reluctant and kept hesitating. It was only now that he made up his mind, "I'm not lost."
"Why are you here if you're not lost?" Father Jiang looked puzzled, "You look like a daughter of a wealthy family. What are you doing here alone?"
Jiang Shuhua almost let him go in again, so she had to say quickly: "My surname is Xie."
"Oh! Thank you! There is a family named Xie around here..." Father Jiang seemed to be thinking carefully, and after a while he suddenly smiled and said, "What a coincidence, my daughter is also named Xie."
Jiang Shuhua suddenly felt depressed, gritted her teeth and said with a smile: "But now...my surname is Jiang."
Father Jiang opened his eyes in confusion, "Can this surname be changed? Is it a rule in your capital?"
Finally, the smile on Jiang Shuhua's face could no longer be maintained.
She almost couldn't hold back and yelled out that she was his biological daughter, but Father Jiang finally came to his senses. He raised his hand and pointed at Jiang Shuhua with one finger, his fingertips trembling non-stop, "You...
…You, you, you…”
Jiang Shuhua finally breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, this person's brain is not that stupid!
only……
Why is she the daughter of such a person?
Gritting her teeth, she took two more steps forward. The smile on her face became more gentle, but her eyes were red. Then she bowed to the person in front of her and said, "This is the first time you have seen me."
Father Jiang nodded dumbly.
Jiang Shuhua didn't wait for his second sentence and asked again: "Do you think I... look like you or..."
She didn't know how to address Jiang's mother for a while, so she simply stopped saying anything.
Jiang's father slowly came back to his senses and almost stopped Jiang Shuhua from going berserk when he said, "She is indeed not as good as my daughter."
She knew this a long time ago, and there was no need for this country bumpkin to emphasize it again at this time!
Father Jiang saw that the expression on her face froze, and then he came back to his senses, "Oh! You... why did you come here?"
Jiang Shuhua finally let out the breath, and the conversation between the two finally returned to some normality. She showed an expression that was about to cry, and looked at the person in front of her with tears in her eyes, "Are you all blaming me? Blame me for so long.
, never came to see you?"
Jiang's father was a little confused at this time. He didn't know why his daughter came here suddenly. Logically speaking, shouldn't she be enjoying happiness in the palace at this time?
Hearing this, he waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't dare, don't dare, don't listen to other people's nonsense, this... we all know that you are living a good life, this is fine.
Besides, the two of us have not raised you for a day, and we have not fulfilled any responsibilities for raising you. How can we have any requirements for you? So, knowing that you are doing well now, this is very good. It is considered that God has treated us like this.
A pair of irresponsible parents is not bad."
Jiang Shuhua did not expect to hear such words from this person's mouth, and was a little stunned for a moment.
She thought for a while and then said: "I don't know when you came to Beijing, but I have been in the deep palace, and it is very difficult to come out. In the past few days, I realized that you have always been there. Fallen leaves need to find their roots. In the past
That's all, now that I know your whereabouts, how can I remain indifferent? I always have to come and take a look in person to feel at ease."
When Jiang's father heard what she said, he hesitated a little, "You... don't need to."
Jiang Shuhua then took a step forward, "Don't you want to see me at all? After all, I am also your daughter. No matter what, after all, your blood is still flowing in me."
Father Jiang didn't know what to say when she said this. It took him a long time to say, "Mr. Xie made it clear when he sent people to our house. They took Ya Niang over and would not exchange you back.
You have also given us enough money to live in peace. If we still care about you, wouldn’t it be a breach of trust?
And it is better for you to be here than to follow us. What else do we have to hope for? You see, now you are a noble in the palace. If you were in our Qingshui Town, the most you could do is marry into a slightly better family.
After all, it’s still a hard life.”
"But..." Jiang Shuhua finally shed tears, "But it's not like we refuse to even see each other! Do you want me to be a fatherless and motherless person for the rest of my life? Don't you know that my surname is no longer Xie?
My name is Jiang Shuhua, and I entered the palace as a daughter of the Jiang family. Even the palace knows that my surname is Jiang, aren't you willing to admit it?"
How could Mr. Jiang be so eloquent? She stopped him in his tracks when she asked him.
Jiang Shuhua took another step forward and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous. I'm just excited to finally see you. Where is my mother? Where is she now? I can go see her.
One side?"
Jiang Shuhua thought about it in her mind. After all, Jiang's father is from a man's family and has many delicate thoughts that cannot be touched. Jiang's mother should be much easier to overcome.
