In the room full of lights, the mayor turned around and saw the posture behind him, and almost stopped holding the pipe in his hand.
Brother Ah Qing scratched his head and said, "These guys are from Beijing and have stayed at my house for the past two days. They said they wanted to bring relief food to our area. You see, the mayor, we are not good either."
Take someone else’s for nothing.”
"Seriously?" the leader asked, staring at the long-haired man.
Jiang Huaiyang nodded slightly and said in a cold voice, "It's just not necessary for the others. You can keep an eye on it yourself and make sure that every household has it, rather than someone taking away some of it." He meant something.
He will come here just for this purpose.
It's not that he doesn't know how officials protect each other and exploit each other, it's just that he can't keep an eye on everything. At the moment, it's better to avoid it a little.
The chief handed the pipe to the lady on the side, coughed twice, and responded repeatedly, "That's natural."
"This is really a big help. I don't think I have anything to worry about in this cold winter." The head of the village walked in on his own, "It's just that this remote country is not as good as yours in the capital, so there is nothing to thank you for."
He led the group of people into the house.
This bedroom is neatly arranged, with a short bed, curtains, and curtains. There is an ancient shelf standing by the wall, and there are some weird things on it, such as withered ears of rice.
The kerchief used by one woman was even a stone as big as a fist.
When he went to pick up something from the high side under the window, Ruan Yuyi casually walked to the book shelf over there.
This shelf is usually used to store antiques and rare items, but it is rarely used to store these.
Brother Ah Qing knew some of the reasons. Seeing her interest, he pointed out to her one by one and said, "This ear of rice is one of the branches that grew first in the village in previous years. I asked the village chief to get it for me. This stone is
He found it for his wife to press sauerkraut, but the lady in charge thought it was too small, so she left it here."
He pointed to the scarf and said, "This scarf——"
After rummaging around for a long time, I still didn't find what I was looking for. When I heard brother Aqing mention this handkerchief, I became anxious and rushed forward, "You kid, why are you saying everything to others?"
He randomly stuffed the handkerchief into the lapel of his clothes and glared at Brother A-Qing.
Brother Ah Qing was not afraid. He laughed and continued, "His wife randomly threw this veil to him at that time. I didn't want him to take it as a keepsake and hide it."
The headmaster was just laughing and cursing when he heard Ruan Yuyi suddenly say, "Where did you get this?"
There was an imperceptible tremor in her voice.
She took the palm-sized wooden box from the shelf. The wooden box was open, and inside was a white jade inlaid gold wrench. The inner ring of the wrench was engraved with the seal of the Ruan family, which could be faintly discerned by the light.
Mu Xiang was stunned when she saw it, and blurted out, "Isn't this something that belongs to the eldest young master?"
She couldn't admit it. She didn't need to look at the seal inside. The gold inlay technique alone was beyond what ordinary craftsmen could do.
This item was originally made by a craftsman who once worked in the Ruan Mansion, but later the Ruan family fell into disrepair and there was no leisure time for him to make jewelry, so he was dismissed.
Mu Xiang's words penetrated Ruan Yuyi's ears, causing her eyes to turn red and she repeated, "Where did you get this? Is there a person named Ruan Zhuoxin who once passed here?"
The gold on it came from the same place as the gold on the bell at her ankle, and was fused into a longevity lock. The first time I thought of this was when I saw the luster on the longevity lock was dim, so I took it away.
Hit nearby objects.
Don't want to see me here again.
Afraid that he might not understand clearly, she added, "Er Yuan Ruan, Zhuo Ying's Zhuo, the old and the new are the new."
The commander was stunned for a moment, "I don't know what his name is. This was indeed left here by a major general."
At that time, it seemed that the young general was going to lead his troops north to Hu Di and rest at their place. He had no money to give, so he left this thing as a letter and would repay the money later.
He originally refused to take it, but had no choice but to refuse it, so he had to keep it for the young general for the time being.
However, several years passed, but the young general did not come back.
"Young lady, do you recognize that person? Why don't you return this thing for me?" The chief thought that the thing could be returned to its original owner and he breathed a sigh of relief.
She smiled slightly, her eyes were so pale that she couldn't hold back the tears, and they fell one after another.
"That's my brother."
Like Ah Qing, she has an older brother. But her older brother will never joke with her again.
But at least he unexpectedly found his things. Ruan Yuyi put the ring on her fingertips and gradually tightened her fingers - was this an unexpected surprise? She should be happy.
Her nails dug into the palm of her hand, and she didn't know how hard she used it, but she didn't even feel the red marks.
Jiang Huaiyang noticed her raised metacarpal bones, which were slender and pitiful, and he knew how much force she had used. He opened the little lady's hand bit by bit so that she would not hurt him anymore.
She gradually relaxed her strength, and the wrench hung empty on her finger. As soon as she lowered her hand, it slipped directly.
The ring jingled and rolled far away, stopping just at Wen Zhi's feet. He leaned over to pick it up, but his expression was slightly strange. He didn't say anything and handed the ring to Jiang Huaiyang.
The finger was warmed by the little lady, and the pattern on it was particularly eye-catching.
His throat tightened.
Ruan Zhuoxin and Yuan Yuhuai. Isn't the word "Yuhuai" the split of "Zhuo"? He should have thought of it when he found out who her family was.
He put the ring on the correct finger for her, his eyes were dim and unclear, and underneath his calm face, there was an unknown turbulent wave that almost knocked him down.
It turns out she is the sister that guy always talks about.
In this case, isn't everything he had planned against her ridiculous?
Jiang Huaiyang hugged the little lady who was sobbing softly, but he accidentally controlled the strength for fear of hurting her. In the place where she could not see, his fingertips trembled slightly.
What exactly did he do?
A strong sense of suffocation surged over him, tightly wrapping him up, and the fragile person in front of him seemed to be the only straw to save his life. He had no choice but to hug him tightly.
The little lady's body was as gentle and soft as a doll made of the finest silk in the world. She looked like she was missing her loved ones and was very well-behaved.
He seemed to understand why that guy doted on his sister so much. If it were him, he would have held it in his hand for fear of dropping it, and held it in his mouth for fear of breaking it.
Now she is gradually letting down her guard against him, but what would she think if she knew that her brother died for him?
His mind seemed to be empty for a moment, and he did not dare to think too deeply.
He held her hand tighter, but in the eyes of others, he was just trying to comfort her.
When he returned, the ring finger was naturally left on Ruan Yuyi's body.
Li Chang originally wanted to find a family heirloom to express his gratitude, but an accident like this happened during the period, so he naturally forgot where to put it. Fortunately, the nobleman from the capital didn't care, so he just sent it off in person.
The carriage parked at the entrance of the village traveled leisurely, leaving long ruts on the ground, and gradually disappeared into the snowy night.
Brother Ah Qing stood there, looking at the ruts that were completely different from the ox carts.
It should be covered with new snow tomorrow. He thought so.
