Tang Xiaoshi read a seven-character regulated poem, but didn't recognize two or three characters. Because of writing, there were still a few that she didn't recognize.

She politely praised a few words.

Jiang Lang smiled and said a few words of humility, the topic was revealed

Tang Xiaoshi saw that he looked a little anxious, as if there was something else to do, and apologized: "I have been talking to you for a while, and I have delayed you for so long, you must have other things, so I won't talk to you. "

Jiang Lang shook his head slightly and smiled, "I don't have anything important to do, just buy some nourishing medicine for my mother."

"You can't delay this, you go!" He glanced in the direction of the medicine shop in the town.

Seeing her urging, Jiang Lang couldn't force himself to speak any more, he patted the package in his arms, thanked her again, took his leave and left.

After walking more than ten steps, looking back, seeing her still standing at the entrance of the alley, he smiled at her.The golden sun hit his face head-on, making the already gentle smile even warmer and brighter.

She was inexplicably happy, and couldn't help but smile back.

Jiang Lang walked for a short distance, turned around again, and the neighbor next to him came to talk to Tang Xiaoshi, blocking his view.

The neighbor looked at Jiang Lang on the street, and asked Tang Xiaoshi with a thief look: "Who is this gentleman? He looks pretty good, where is he from? How did you know each other?" A series of questions were asked.

Tang Xiaoshi knew that she was fast-talking, so she didn't want to say more, so she said: "My sister-in-law's natal neighbor." Then she turned around and went back with the excuse that she still had something to do.

Shu's father had already gone out to talk to his uncle about the New Year's event, and Shu's mother took her grandchildren to gossiping at the neighbor's house next door.In the yard, Shu Dalang was chopping wood, and San Lang was carving something with a small piece of wood in his hand.

As soon as he sat down in the yard, the sister-in-law came back and grabbed her and kept asking about her and Jiang Lang.

She didn't hide anything, and told her sister-in-law one by one, and asked Jiang Lang about some things.

When Shu's mother came back from lunch, she didn't know what she heard at the neighbor's house, and asked her if she had heard about Yan's house.

"Why did you bring up the Yan family again?" She showed displeasure.

Shu's mother didn't care, and said with a smile: "Auntie heard from the third aunt and daughter-in-law that the house that the Yan family bought in the city was cheated, and now the house is gone, and they still owe debts. It's going to be a bad year for the Yan family."

She had already guessed that Yan's family had moved since returning home two days ago.At the beginning when buying a house was short of money, Yan Wangui refused to listen to her and borrowed it from Uncle Yan, but insisted on borrowing it from his group of wine and meat friends.

Since her words have no weight, and she will be maliciously misinterpreted or even accused by the other party, then she can only choose to keep her mouth shut.

Yan Wangui should now recognize what kind of people his so-called kind friends are, right?

Hearing this, Saburo curiously asked about the details, but Shu's mother was afraid that she would not be willing to listen, so she simply said a few words.

Saburo applauded: "Yan Dalang should be taught a few more times to know how good sister is."

Tang Xiaoshi said disdainfully: "I'm good, I don't care if he knows."

San Lang immediately changed his words: "What sister said is that Yan Dalang is not worthy of such a good sister."

Shu Dalang and his sister-in-law were also helping and talking.

One year, the family is in harmony, laughing and laughing, and Tang Xiaoshi is much more relaxed.

After visiting relatives and friends for New Year's greetings, Shu Dalang accompanied his sister-in-law to Jiangcun.

The two came back the next day and the sister-in-law pulled her into the room to talk.

"I went to see Hong Lang's aunt yesterday." The sister-in-law sighed sadly, "The condition is worse than I thought, and it's probably only a month or two."

"So seriously ill?" She was shocked, looking at Jiang Lang's expression years ago, she didn't see how sad and melancholy, and didn't she say before that she still had one or two years of life.

"Yeah, I've been sick for so many years. I heard from my aunt that Hong Lang is a filial man who tried various ways to seek medical treatment and hanged himself with medicine. If he had been left in someone else's house, he might have died of illness two years earlier. "

After finishing speaking, she sighed again, pulled her sign language and said earnestly: "Hong Lang is really a good man. My sister-in-law grew up with him and knows his character. Although the family is poor, she is a kind man. A person with good intentions and a kind heart has ambition since he was a child, if it wasn't for his mother's illness, he would have achieved something at this age."

"Tian Niang, I talked to Hong Lang for a while yesterday, and I also inquired about his thoughts, and I could hear that he has intentions for you, but his mother and his family are in such a situation, so I can only endure it. "

Tang Xiaoshi lowered her head slightly, not knowing how to speak.She liked Jiang Lang a little in her heart, and felt that he was worth continuing to get to know.She doesn't care about the other party's poverty, as long as she has the ability and ambition to treat her well, it's just a few years later for the happiness of material life. She is only in her twenties now, and she can afford to wait.

It's just that this relationship has not yet reached the level of talking about marriage, and Jiang's mother is like this, so Jiang Lang must not have half the intention of marrying a wife.

Sister-in-law smiled and said to her: "Sister-in-law can only tell you so much, everything still depends on your decision, and it also depends on what uncle thinks."

She smiled but didn't answer, it's too early to say.

She thought so, but she didn't expect Shu's father and Shu's mother to call her over at night and talk about it.They learned about Jiang Lang and her acquaintance from Shu Dalang.

For the first time, Shu's father said that he thought Jiang Lang was good, and even said that if she married, he could accompany her with more dowry.This is what Shu's father said when she was reconciled with Yan Wangui when she was reconciled with Yan Wangui, and she was pointed out by her neighbors. After Feng Lang's incident happened, Shu's father's attitude changed drastically. Unexpectedly, everything has changed now, and he can still say such words. I can't help being shocked .

Just about to guess the meaning behind Shu's father's words, Shu's father revealed it himself.

Mother Jiang's fate is only one or two months away, and Jiang's family is not encumbered by Mother Jiang. A virtuous and talented person like Jiang Lang will surely become a great weapon in the future, and the Shu family will also be honored.He even said that he wanted to get them married before Jiang's mother died in the name of Chongxi.

If Jiang's mother passed away, she would be a lady no better than a child during the three-year filial piety period.

There are other reasons and worries.All in all, I think now is the best time.

After hearing these words, she felt very uncomfortable. Although Shu's father had good intentions for her, he essentially regarded her marriage as a calculation, a profit management.

She smiled and refused, "My daughter has no feelings for him, and she has no intention of marrying him."

"It's not urgent. After we get married, we will naturally have feelings." Father Shu persuaded, "There is no one who has such deep feelings just after we got married. I only met your mother once before we got married!"

Shu's mother echoed and persuaded.

Seeing that Shu's father had made up his mind, she explained again: "He didn't have the idea of ​​marrying a wife to celebrate the joy at all. If he had, he would have married a wife to celebrate the joy a few years ago. Why should it be now. Jiang Lang is kind-hearted, It’s because I don’t want to hurt others. And Aye’s plan, Jiang Lang is a smart person, how could he not see it? Instead, it’s self-defeating and things backfire.”

Shu's father thought for a while, met Shu's mother for a glance, finally nodded, and then frowned, thinking about something again.

Returning from Shu's father and Shu's mother's room to her own room, she couldn't calm down.

Thinking that Jiang Lang didn't want his wife to be troubled, he didn't marry a wife for so many years, and he and his younger sister took care of their mother, but Shu's father put his abacus on this, which made her feel an invisible guilt, as if her feelings for Jiang Lang were no longer purely.

It was not until the second half of the night that her mind calmed down and she gradually fell asleep.

After the Lantern Festival, she packed up and went back to the city, but Shu's father and Shu's mother stopped her to stay at home, intending to finalize the matter between her and Jiang's family, and even went to invite a matchmaker, but she stopped her.

She dragged on for two days, thinking about this matter, and being told by them, she became more and more worried about Jiang's mother's health, but it was inconvenient for her to go and see her alone.Finally, I talked to my sister-in-law about it, and went to Jiangcun with the excuse of going back to my mother's house with my sister-in-law.Sister-in-law led her to visit.

A low yard built of earth and rocks, the few houses are not dilapidated, but they look old compared to the houses in the village.

A seventeen or eighteen-year-old lady, tall and thin, with five or six features like Jiang Lang.She was drying clothes in the yard, when she turned her head and saw the elder sister-in-law calling out with a smile: "Sister Wan, when did you come?" Wiping her hands on the apron, she came over.

"I just came here. I heard that my aunt is seriously ill again. I'll come over to have a look."

The little lady's face darkened, and her smile became forced. "It's hard for sister Wan to still miss my mother."

"My aunt loved me a lot when I was young. If I don't think about it, it would be too heartless."

The little lady glanced at Tang Xiaoshi again, and looked at her sister-in-law questioningly.

"My sister-in-law, Tian Niang." The sister-in-law laughed.

The little lady looked slightly stagnant, and then smiled politely: "Miss Tian, ​​Sister Wan, sit in your room." He led her into the room, "My elder brother went out in the morning and will not be back until evening."

"Going to work again?"

"Yes."

As soon as she walked to the door, Tang Xiaoshi smelled a strong smell of medicine. When she entered the door, she saw that the room was simple and clean, and the light was dim. There was a person lying on a low bed beside her, covered with a thick quilt, and her face could not be seen clearly.

"Who's here?" The voice was weak and trembling.

"It's Sister Wan and her husband's little girl, Tian Niang." The word Tian Niang is a little bit longer.

Tang Xiaoshi looked at the little lady suspiciously, and she walked towards the bed with a smile on her lips.

Tang Xiaoshi walked over with her sister-in-law, only then did she see clearly the woman on the bed, her face was yellow and thin, her lips were colorless, her eyes were sunken, hollow and blurred, she seemed to have no focus, her breathing was slow and heavy, and she seemed to be struggling.

"Wanniang is here." The woman didn't know if she had expended too much energy to speak, she coughed twice, and even the cough seemed weak.

"Yes, I'm here to see my aunt." The sister-in-law put the basket she brought when she came here on the small table beside the bed, and sat on the edge of the bed.

Mother Jiang glanced at the basket, and sighed quietly: "Every time I come here, I carry things, why waste it!"

"It should be what my aunt said."

Jiang's mother struggled to speak, so she looked at Tang Xiaoshi for a long time, as if she couldn't see clearly and tried to see clearly, but also seemed to see clearly what she was identifying.The originally empty and blurred eyes gradually became brighter.

After taking a few breaths, he smiled weakly, his eyes returned to emptiness again, and the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually became bitter and embarrassing.

"They're all good ladies." Weakly said, followed by two soft coughs.

Tang Xiaoshi saw a little blood on the pale lips, and the little lady wiped it off immediately.

"Aniang, rest more and stop talking."

Mother Jiang let out a shallow sigh, as if she had exhausted all her strength, and slowly closed her eyes.

Jiang's mother rested, Jiang Lang was away, Tang Xiaoshi and her sister-in-law talked with the little lady for a while at Jiang's house and then left.

When he returned to town in the evening, Jiang Lang hadn't come back yet.

In the afternoon of the next day, she was impatiently listening to Shu's mother nagging about asking a matchmaker to get married, when the elder sister-in-law hurried in from the outside and shouted: "It's not good, Hong Lang and his mother... are gone."

There was a bang in Tang Xiaoshi's head, as if struck by lightning, and everything went blank.
