Fragrance Returned

Chapter 246 Looking forward to a letter from my brother

Mrs. Zhang stroked Ding Xiang's face and smiled, Time flies so fast. My daughter has grown up and is going to wear earrings.

Ding Zhuang sighed, I feel like yesterday I was carrying her all over the village, and today she has grown so tall.

He looked forward to her growing up every day, but when she did grow up and wear earrings, he felt empty in his heart.

Ding Xiang went over and pulled his sleeve and acted coquettishly.

In front of Ding Zhao's eyes was the scene of him picking up the box in the crowded crowd. By some strange combination of circumstances, he brought this girl home, and eight years passed...

And Mr. Qin, after looking at Lilac a few times, he will look at Ding Zhen.

In the next few days, if Ding Xiang didn't go to class, she would walk and talk with Mrs. Zhu at home, and sometimes she would call Ding Zhen over to play. If there is class, Mrs. Zhu will go to Tao's house to chat with the old lady.

Sun Yumu and Ding Lichun either meet up to play at Ding's house or at Tao's house. They are a pair of comrades and brothers who have an excellent relationship. The naughty kid is no longer as arrogant and mysophobic as before, and is much more gregarious.

The days passed happily and joyfully.

Two days before leaving, Mr. Qin, Ding Lichun, Sun Yumu, Ding Zhao, Feifei and Qian Lei went hunting in the mountains again and rested at Zhang's house at night.

On the morning of July 27th, Mrs. Zhu and others returned to Jiaozhou.

They came and went in a hurry, but Ding Xiang, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Tao were very reluctant to leave.

Ding Xiang brought some Ganoderma lucidum powder to Mrs. Zhu and Mr. Qin to drink with water on the way. He also said that when the apples turn red, he would bring more with him.

After they left, Ding Zhuang and Ding Shan had a secret conversation behind closed doors. He couldn't say that someone was interested in Ding Zhen. He only said that Ding Zhen was his grand-nephew and he would help find a good match in the future...

When Ding Shan came out, he couldn't hide his excitement. He had always hoped that Ding Zhen would marry into a good family.

After that, as long as Ding Xiang didn't go to Tao Zhai for classes, Ding Zhen would come to the second room and stay for half a day.

Or read and write with Ding Xiang, or learn etiquette from Aunt Wei.

In early August, Dingshan and Xie bought a girl for Dingzhen, who was thirteen years old.

Ding Zhen said it was autumn now and the leaves were turning yellow, so he named her Qiu Huang.

Xiao Nizi didn’t study in vain, it’s quite poetic.

Mrs. Zhang also wanted to buy another girl for Dingxiang, but Dingxiang didn't want it.

She is now a country girl, with a girl and a mother-in-law to serve her, and people are already gossiping about her.

Mrs. Zhang bought another little boy back. He is not only a slave in the family, but also considers Yang Hu and his wife as his parents.

Yang Hu and his wife were unable to have children and wanted to adopt a son to support them in their old age.

They were a good couple, one was a good orchardist and the other was a good needleworker. Everyone in the Ding family was very satisfied, so Zhang came up with this idea.

The little boy is just three years old. His facial features are quite handsome, but he is too thin and looks like he hasn't had enough to eat. Hearing that his father-in-law and his mother had died of illness one after another, his grandmother sold him and his sister and used the money to build a house for her second son and find a wife.

Who said there are no bad parents in the world? There are many unscrupulous parents.

After hearing the child's life experience, the Ding family felt very sympathetic.

The child kowtowed to Yang Hu and his wife. When calling father and mother, the little people cried.

You know how to cry with joy at such a young age, but look at how frightening the days were before.

Yang Hu named him Yang Bao, which means repaying his master's kindness.

Yang Hu's family put the prepared silver collar on Yang Bao, picked up the child and was reluctant to let go.

Ding Zhuang gave them a lot of wages, and with the rewards, Yang Hu and Li Maigao's family lived a better life than many villagers.

The Ding family has built several houses in the southwest of Beiquan Village, near his orchard, separated by earthen walls in the middle, specifically for the Yang and Li families.

Several rooms were vacated in the west courtyard of the Ding family. Granny Wei and Li Hui each live in one room, and brother Li Dalu lives in one room.

In the east courtyard, apart from a few masters, only Ling'er lived in one room.

One afternoon in October, Ding Xiang and Zhang were sitting at the table, preparing to eat.

Li Dalu came to report, Sister, there is a person claiming to be from the escort agency who wants to see you, saying that an old friend of yours has brought you a letter and some money.

Ding Xiang was confused, My old friend, asked someone from the escort agency to bring me a letter and money?

Mrs. Zhang was also puzzled, Can't he be a bad person?

Ding Xiang said, Invite him in.

Li Dalu led a man in his thirties in.

The man was tall and strong. He hugged Ding Xiang and Zhang and said, Are you Miss Ding Xiang from Beiquan Village?

Lilac nodded, Yes.

The man took out a letter and a small cloth package from his arms and presented them, Entrust your escort.

Ding Xiang didn't answer and asked, Who asked for the escort?

The man said, The escort master didn't say anything. He only said that Miss Ding would know after reading the letter.

Ding Xiang stretched out her hand, but Zhang stopped her, stretched out her hand and said, Give it to me.

The man glanced at Ding Xiang, who nodded.

The man just handed the letter and small package to Zhang.

Zhang opened the package and found twenty-six ingots of silver, two taels each, for a total of fifty-two taels. She took out the letter again and saw a few rows of words written on it. She couldn't read and handed it to Ding Xiang.

Lilac took it.

The title is, Xiangmei Fangjian.

The main idea of ​​the letter is that she is fine now and don't worry about her. Of the fifty-two taels of silver, twelve taels were returned to Ding Xiang, and forty taels were given to Ding Sifu. Thirty liang of them were treated for legs, and 10 liang went to study for two years. She also said that she only has this ability now, and if she makes more money in the future, she can repay Xiangmei and build a house for Ding Sifu.

She also asked Ding Xiang that the matter of her asking someone to send money back should not be made public for the time being except for her and Ding Sifu.

Finally, I can’t say enough about my thoughts, so I pray for you to cherish them.

Sign it, sister.

Lilac knew who it was.

It's Ding Panwang. She was illiterate before, and even if she took a crash course, she would never be able to write such beautiful handwriting and elegant written language.

This letter was ghostwritten.

It's pretty good to have saved so much money in two years.

Ding Xiang was overjoyed and asked, Where does the person who wrote the letter work?

The man said, The escort hasn't said anything yet. He then took out a similar receipt and ink pad, Miss Ding has received the goods, please sign and pledge it.

Ding Xiang looked at it and signed and fingerprinted it.

The man bowed to leave, but Ding Xiang said, Thank you for your hard work, uncle. Can you eat a simple meal before leaving?

She still didn't give up and wanted Li Maigao to talk to him while drinking.

The man shook his head and said, Miss Xie Ding, I still have to hurry.

After the man left, Ding Xiang told the contents of the letter.

Ms. Zhang also felt that it was written by Ding Pandi, It's a good thing that Pandi is making a difference. Why do you make it so arrogant?

Lilac shook her head.

Yes, why is Ding Pandi so mysterious?

Ding Xiang thinks there are several possibilities.

First, she was afraid that Ding Youshou would find out where she was and ask her for money. She didn't want to recognize this irresponsible father, and she couldn't say it clearly, so she could only avoid him like this.

Second, I am in a bad place and I am embarrassed to expose myself.

Third, I am in a too good place to be exposed.

The first seems to be the most likely, but the second and third are not impossible.

Ding Xiang paid special attention when she was looking at the bill just now. It said Beijing Wantong Escort Agency...

Thank you to Duckweed in the Water, I love Manbao the most, and I’m just one dollar away from the reward. Thank you for your monthly votes.
