Chapter 64 Someone comes to visit at midnight
"Did you miss dinner again?"
Liu Ya was rubbing her belly when she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her.
She turned around and called out in surprise, "Second brother?"
"Didn't I ask you to come find me for dinner? Why didn't you call me?"
Jiang Youzhen touched Liu Ya's furry head, and then put a sky blue jacket on her.
This is Jiang Youzhen's clothes. Because she is taller than Liu Ya, but the original owner is thin, so it doesn't look big on Liu Ya, just the hem is longer.
"Wear it inside and your own clothes outside. Otherwise your mother will see it and get upset again."
Jiang Youzhen took out the buns and pastries and said, "The buns are cold. You are boiling water. Heat them up on the stove."
Liu Ya looked at Jiang Youzhen blankly and suddenly burst into tears.
"Oh! Why are you crying?" Jiang Youzhen quickly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve. It was made for her by Erya using the leftover fine cotton cloth.
Jiang Youzhen was used to using paper towels in his previous life, but now it’s inconvenient without paper towels, so he can only use a handkerchief.
Fortunately, except for the poor people, people with some money are used to using handkerchiefs. Regardless of whether they are men or women, it doesn't seem strange for her to use a plain handkerchief.
"Why is she still crying at such a grown-up age?" Jiang Youzhen was really moved with sympathy. The little girl was so pitiful!
"My second brother is the best to me in this family!" The little girl cried, but did not take the handkerchief, just wiped her tears with her sleeves.
"Wipe them quickly, you're such a grown-up now." Jiang Youzhen used a handkerchief to help wipe her tears, and suddenly his eyes fell on the black mole beside Liu Ya's ear.
Suddenly, she thought of something.
Hey! I forgot one thing. In the book, the original owner had a die-hard fan who didn't know any martial arts and relied on seduction to get some inside information.
The book only mentioned a few words, saying that this person was Jiang Youzhen's relative, but didn't say much more.
She was so loyal to the original owner, and her tragic death was also because of the original owner. And the original owner's blackening was not entirely because Tong Huaian didn't like her, part of the reason was also because of this diehard fan.
She remembered what the loyal fan's name was? It seemed to be Roujin, a prostitute.
The book described Roujin as being pretty and somewhat similar to the original owner, and a mole on her ear was a sign of her death.
In order to help the original owner find out the inside story, Roujin had contacts with some people in the court, and revealed the information she obtained to the original owner.
In the end, she died because she knew too many secrets and was killed by one of the officials.
This official was from the Fourth Prince's lineage, but he was a fence-sitter. Because he betrayed the Fourth Prince, he was eliminated by the heroine and the Fourth Prince.
Therefore, what Roujin got was just false news, which was reported to the Second Prince by the original owner, causing the Second Prince to suffer a great loss.
It was at that time that the second prince was furious and severely punished the original owner.
Could it be that Roujin was Liu Ya? But why did Liu Ya run into the original owner? And she even went to a brothel.
After the original owner became a secret agent, he never contacted his family. After all, he had become a dead soldier and cut off all ties with his family.
Only once did she hear from Tong Huaian that her parents died one after another within a month after she was rescued, both of them died of illness.
The lives of the three sisters were not easy either, but it was not described in detail, only that they were miserable.
However, the original owner had been blinded by hatred at that time and only wanted to take revenge on the heroine and Tong Huaian, so he didn't care about these things.
"From now on, as long as I have something to eat, you won't starve to death. Go to the pigpen and wait for your meal every day, and I'll bring it to you. Even if I'm not at home, I'll tell my second sister and the others."
Liu Ya nodded, but still grabbed the corner of Jiang Youzhen's clothes.
Jiang Youzhen understood that this was an instinctive attachment.
In fact, the original owner treated Liu Ya just averagely. After all, she had three older sisters that she couldn’t take care of, so how could she have the time to take care of her cousin?
When I see Liu Ya on weekdays, she only helps out occasionally.
I don’t know why, but Liu Ya is somewhat attached to the original owner. Maybe it’s because her own brother treated her badly?
"Heat up the buns." Jiang Youzhen was about to lift the lid of the pot when he was stopped by Liu Ya.
"There will be a fragrance, and your baby will smell it." Liu Ya stopped her timidly, and then handed the jacket to Jiang Youzhen.
"Let the second brother wear this! I'm used to it."
Jiang Youzhen was speechless. Does this grandma have a dog's nose? Is it so sharp?
"I'm still short of a coat to wear? Just wear it if I tell you to."
Jiang Youzhen thought about it and suddenly came up with a solution. He found two chopsticks, stuck the buns in, and put them on the flame to roast.
"Look! It's not as delicious as steamed, but at least it's hot."
Liu Ya smiled, her eyebrows and eyes curved.
Jiang Youzhen glanced at the straw sandals on Erya's feet, and immediately cursed in his heart that Fourth Aunt was a piece of shit.
Liuya and Sanlang are both her children, but she treats them differently. Does that mean Liuya is not her child? She is also a woman!
After thinking about it, how could she be afraid of Fourth Aunt? Humph! Just let Liu Ya wear it, and she will see what Fourth Aunt can do to her.
The buns were quickly heated up. Seeing that Si Ya was so hot that she couldn't even hold them, but still wolfed them down, Jiang Youzhen scolded Si Ya again.
In the past, the Second House had also suffered, but the Shen family was still good to the four sisters. They were reluctant to eat and saved it for them.
"Why do you have to boil water for washing their feet? Where is your mother? Where is your aunt?"
Liu Ya shook her head. "It's okay. I can boil some water to keep warm. They feel cold and are lying on the kang!"
"I'll heat the kang for you later. It won't be your job from now on, so you should do less. If anyone at home bullies you, come find me. I'll support you."
Jiang Youzhen knew that this girl didn't even dare to heat the kang when she slept, so she just endured it! It was lucky that she didn't freeze to death.
"No, grandma doesn't allow me to use too much firewood." Liu Ya's eyes were shining, and she was very satisfied with eating the meat buns.
"Use mine." Jiang Youzhen knew that the child would not dare to rebel against his parents and grandparents now, so he could only take it slow.
Late at night, Jiang Youzhen heated the kang for Liu Ya and went to bed early.
After coming here, she changed her habit of sleeping in the early morning in her previous life and went to bed very early.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound. Jiang Youzhen was startled and sat up.
Holding the dagger in his hand, he stared in the direction where the sound came from, which was the window.
In fact, the layout of the west wing here is a bit strange. Outside Jiang Youzhen's house is the main house of the Shen couple, and a little further inside is the house of the three sisters.
They are not in a row, but a little irregular. That is because the Jiang family did not have the money to build a house at the beginning, so they added it later.
Hey! It's a dark and windy night. Someone is coming to visit us so late at night?
It seems that the things during the day were too eye-catching, and they actually came that night?
She climbed up from the kang quietly, rolled the quilt into the shape of a person, and then hid behind a large box.
Outside, the snow had not yet melted, and there was some white light coming from the windows. The black shadow paused, as if getting used to the darkness before his eyes.
After waiting for a while, he went to the outer room of Jiang Fugui and his wife from the door in front.
Jiang Youzhen was more familiar with the house than the man. After waiting for a while and hearing no noise outside, he was about to follow Jiang Fugui to his room, but unexpectedly, he heard a slight noise coming from the window.
