Peach Blossoms

Chapter 2

Ah Yin doesn't know how old grandma is, but from the very beginning of her memory, grandma has been so old, and her hair is gray. A pile of cloth is tied on the head.

Grandma is always very kind to Ah Yin and speaks softly.

Ah Yin liked to sleep with grandma since she was a child. Grandma would drink some wine occasionally, and then hugged little Ah Yin in her arms. Her arms smelled of sweet-scented osmanthus and smelled of wine, soft and warm Yes, Grandma hummed softly to Little Ah Yin, the tune was always very soft and soft, which made Little Ah Yin drowsy.

Occasionally, when grandma drank too much, she would whisper about the sect master. Grandma would first "shush" to little Ah Yin, asking her not to tell others, and every time she would start with "Miss is also a hard-working person." ..." at the beginning, and then kept crying.

Ah Yin knew that Grandma had served the head of the sect when she was young, and followed her all the way here.

The head of the door has not been valued by her parents since she was a child, and even her brothers and sisters often ignore her and bully her.

"Miss is an upright person."

Whenever this sentence is said, Grandma's eyes are full of joy.

"Miss' qualifications are no worse than anyone else's, but just because she is a girl, and she is not as delicate and beautiful as the second miss, I no longer teach her carefully. The young lady was eight years old when she first started practicing martial arts, and she was already inferior to her brothers and sisters at that time. It's too far away, even though she practiced hard day and night, she memorized the profound exercises in the library, but she was still far behind the young master, they could already walk before they learned how to run... .”

"If, if the young lady can get the attention of the family early on, maybe the young lady can be included in the Fenghua record earlier, and there will be no such thing as the young master anymore!"

Ah Yin also didn't understand, "If Grandma is the nurse of the sect master, why is she here to take care of Ah Yin now?"

Grandma stopped talking again, and was silent for a moment, her warm hands stroked little Ah Yin's soft hair, "Because the sect master asked me to take care of you."

The sect master actually valued her so much!

Knowing this fact, Ah Yin's face turned red, and he never thought about why.

Ah Yin adores the sect master, and also likes grandma to tell her about the sect master, but whenever grandma wakes up, she forgets everything, even if Ah Yin asks, grandma will never say the word sect master again up.

It's a secret.

Ah Yin knew in her heart that she and Grandma kept this secret together.

After drinking, Grandma told Little Ah Yin that she used to be the nurse of the head of the house, and the head of the house respected her the most and always listened to her.

Little Ah Yin asked: "Then grandma used to be the nurse of the sect master, and now she is my grandma. Will I become the same person as the sect master in the future?"

Grandma smiled and said to little Ah Yin: "Do you like the sect master?"

Little Ah Yin nodded, "The sect master is an omnipotent person."

Grandma would smile and pat Ah Yin's head: "Good boy, then Ah Yin will become as powerful as the head of the sect, and will never be bullied by others, nor will he be deceived by bad people."

"Has the door master been deceived by bad guys?"

As soon as Ah Yin uttered his words, he knew that he had asked the wrong question. Grandma's smile drooped all year round, her eyes quickly became moist, and the hand on Ah Yin's head trembled slightly.

After a long time, she replied, "Ah...that's really a bad person...how could there be such a bad person..."

Little Ah Yin didn't dare to ask what kind of bad person he was, and what bad things he had done to such an omnipotent sect master, but Xiao Ah Yin believed that this was no longer something she cared about for the sect master. The Lord is so lofty, like the God in the world of Little Ah Yin.

It is impossible for God to be defeated by a little thing.

Little Ah Yin just helped Grandma cook a pot of water that day, Grandma came back from the outside, her expression was unusually excited, she put her hands on Little Ah Yin's shoulders, looked into her eyes and said: "Good boy, do you want to be the sect master's disciple?"

Little Ah Yin wiped her hands on the apron, guessing something in her heart, staring blankly at Grandma's eyes, suddenly at a loss what to do.

"What, what?"

Grandma put her hand on little Ah Yin's head, and narrowed her eyes with a smile: "When you are ten years old, the door master agrees to accept you as a disciple, and we Ah Yin will be able to stand in the same red clothes as them. I practiced swords inside the wall, the head of the sect told me personally."

Little Ah Yin seemed to be jumping up happily, "I am nine years old this year, and I have one more year! One more year!"

Grandma is also happy for little Ah Yin, "Don't be too happy, take the basket and go down the mountain with that sister over there to buy some things, and I'll give you some copper coins. If you want to buy something you want to eat, don't worry about it." ...Don't patronize eating for yourself, buy some for your sister, in the future you will all be from the same family, it's not a bad thing to get to know each other first."

"Here's an umbrella for you. It's about to rain, go and come back quickly. If it really rains, you two will come back with an umbrella."

Little Ah Yin listened carefully, carefully packed the copper plate in Grandma's hand into a handkerchief, and hid it in the bottom part of the basket.

"I know it all."

As soon as Ah Yin went out, he saw two disciples in red clothes standing there, one of them had slender eyes and a pointed chin, but his expression was very impatient.

Ah Yin lowered his head.

It turned out to be Ling Yufei...

The most "famous" Ling Yufei in the servant's yard.

She shook the basket, touched the handkerchief that wrapped the money in the basket, and approached Ling Yufei with her head down.

"Senior Sister Ling."

Ling Yufei turned around and saw her, "tsk", "It's really slow."

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be three people.

Mamaw was wrong too.

Ling Yufei walked in front, ignored Ah Yin, and just dragged another senior sister to walk in front.

The mountain road was steep, it rained heavily last night, the road was muddy and slippery, Ah Yin couldn't keep up with them, so he walked slowly.

Ling Yufei occasionally looked back and saw that A Yin was getting farther and farther away from them, and shouted at A Yin: "Have you broken your leg? Why are you so slow? Just like this, you still want to be Master's disciple? Do you want to be equal to us? "

Ah Yin was most afraid of arguing with others, and he had no intention of arguing with her, so he just lowered his head and quickened his pace.

Another female disciple pulled Ling Yufei and signaled her to stop talking, and Ah Yin rushed to them as soon as possible, that female disciple smiled softly at Ah Yin, "A... Yin, Ah Yin is Well, congratulations, the master has decided to accept you as an apprentice, and you will be our little junior sister from now on, you, Senior Sister Ling, have a quick temper, don't mind."

A Yin looked at the two of them and just nodded.

The female disciple continued: "My surname is Gong, and my name is Gong Xue. You can call me Senior Sister Gong."

Ah Yin called out: "Senior Sister Gong."

Only then did the three continue to move forward. This time, Ah Yin could only keep up with them as quickly as possible, but this time she clearly heard Senior Sister Ling say in a moderate voice: "If the cook in the kitchen hadn't knelt down Please master, the master will not agree to accept a servant as an apprentice!"

Senior Sister Gong comforted Ling Yufei with a smile, "Our Zongying Sect accepts disciples without ever recognizing their backgrounds. The Sect Master has such a kind heart, so we disciples should stop talking too much."

Ah Yin pursed her lips, lowered her head and continued to follow them.

Ah Yin listened to what Grandma said, and just came down to buy things, but Ah Yin didn't know that this kind of "job" was a good job for other disciples to go out and relax. Don't dare to rush, and followed them, the things Ling Yufei asked her to carry were too heavy, she couldn't walk anymore.

Seeing Ah Yin behind her, Senior Sister Gong pointed her to the nearby teahouse, "Ayin, go to the teahouse and rest, we will come to find you after we finish shopping, let's go back together."

Ah Yin nodded. Fortunately, Grandma gave her some coins when she came, and asked her to buy a pot of the cheapest tea and sit in the teahouse to rest.

There was a storyteller in the teahouse who was telling stories about talented scholars and beauties. Ah Yin didn't pay attention and looked around for other people.

It wasn't the first time she went down the mountain to buy, but she used to follow Grandma, and Grandma would buy her some snacks on the side of the road to take home.

This time... Ah Yin felt for the remaining copper plate, so let's forget it.

Ah Yin reckoned and bought some fruits, but she didn't dare to eat them by herself. She listened to Grandma and shared them with the two senior sisters when they came back.

Ah Yin picked the biggest and reddest fruit and put it in her bosom, she wanted to take it back for Grandma to eat.

A few men were sitting at a table beside them, eating melon seeds and drinking tea, listening to a man gossip.

Ah Yin heard them talking about a person's name——Chu Hengying.

That is the name of the gatekeeper.

Ah Yin regained his energy in an instant, and moved the stool closer to them, only then intermittently heard what the man said in a low voice.

"Let's follow up from last time...then Chu Hengying eloped from the Chu family. Do you know why Mr. Chu drew up Chu Hengying's family tree so eagerly?"

Another thinner man said: "Didn't you say that it was Mr. Chu's problem last time?"

The man shook his head inscrutablely, "I got a message."

He waited for someone to ask him, and sure enough there was a thin voice: "What?"

The man turned his head and found a girl with wide-open eyes. She was wearing buns, a coarse cloth blouse, and patches of the same color on the cuffs. She was thin and thin, with a pointed chin, but her eyes were even bigger. She looked like a child from a poor family. .

The man didn't pay attention, turned his head and continued: "Why did the third miss of the Chu family run away with others? You must know that once a woman elopes with others, her reputation will be ruined! Even the family will be shamed. …”

This time it was the thin boy at the same table who asked, "Why?"

The man looked at the eager eyes of others, and said with great satisfaction: "That's because... the third lady of the Chu family already had a child at that time!"

"Ah!" It was the girl who exclaimed.

"I also heard that after the third miss of the Chu family was abandoned, she gave birth to that child and took her back to the Zongying Gate. At this moment, her illegitimate child is probably hiding in the Zongying Gate! Otherwise, how can I explain the third daughter of the Chu family?" Since the young lady is very strong in martial arts, she could have attended the Promise Banquet when she was removed from the family tree by the Chu family, so why did she wait until the Promise Banquet three years later?"

Everyone seemed to have suddenly realized, "Oh!"

The girl silently moved the stool and sat away.

Ah Yin's mind is numb, and she only remembers the conversation between her and Grandma.

"Since Grandma is the nurse of the sect master, why does she come to take care of Ah Yin?"

"Because the sect master asked me to take care of you."

Why... the sect wants its wet nurse to take care of her...

The answer seemed to swell in his chest, almost blurting out...

But Ah Yin couldn't believe it, it was just their nonsense...

How is it possible for her...how is it possible for the door master?

If the door master is really her mother...

Those two words appeared in my mind, and a hot current rushed into my heart, and the hot current rushed directly to the nasal cavity, and evaporated out of the eyes, A Yin wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

Why didn't the sect master recognize her?

Does the gatekeeper like her?

Thinking of that possibility, Ah Yin instantly understood the sect master.

If this is the case, then the sect master is really a hard-working woman.

She just wanted to bury an unknown history and didn't want people to know that's all.

The reason why he didn't throw her away casually is because the sect master is a kind person after all, and the sect master may have had a little bit of pity for her...

How can such a powerful figure as the head of the door have a weakness that makes people poke the spine?

That's why she can't be the weakness of the sect master.

True or not, she will keep it a secret.

Little Ah Yin had already made a decision in his heart when he was nine years old.
