Chapter 768 Two Aunts Sleeping on the Floor
For several days, Jing Chunxi was extremely busy. It was not because he had anything important to do, but because there were always people around him during the day.
She talks to everyone about Qingshan Villa almost every day, the children's growth, the children's progress, and every little detail. The elders and siblings are all very interested.
Jing Yongjian and his clansmen, unless they had something urgent to do at home, gathered together. They stayed together for all three meals a day, except for sleeping, so it was a good opportunity to get together.
You can listen to the children's stories, have a lively meal together, and share the little things in life with each other. The atmosphere is warm and harmonious.
No wonder they came over. Who wouldn't miss those children who were abandoned in the capital when they were only a few years old or even just a few months old? And now four years have passed.
The children grew up in Qingshan Villa. Although they were away from their families, they were able to thrive because of the protection of Jing Yongcheng's family.
In their hearts, they were grateful and relieved. If it weren't for Jing Yongcheng's family, if it weren't for Jing Qiurong who didn't hesitate to divorce and instead took the children together to take care of and teach them attentively, I'm afraid few of the children would have survived intact.
It was Jing Qiurong's persistence and dedication that gave them a warm home and allowed them to feel at ease during their exile.
Even at night, Jing Chunxi rarely gets any sleep.
She slept with her grandmother for two nights, and one of them was a long conversation that lasted almost the entire night. They lay side by side in bed, the old lady wrapping her arm around Jing Chunxi's head and listening to her talk about the help the fairy aunt had given her.
The old lady stroked Jing Chunxi's head from time to time, with a gratified smile on her face. She knew the importance of Qingshan Villa to the family, and she also understood that Jing Chunxi's dedication and hard work played a key role in it.
Needless to say, my last night in Yamen Village was beyond words.
Jing Chunxi had already invited Mingrong over, and together with Jing Mingyue, he thought that three girls of similar age could sleep together and chat.
She wanted Mingrong to know more about Dianwutou and the others. After all, these past few days, apart from eating, she was busy in the kitchen just to avoid other people's gossip.
She made the bed early and even prepared an extra pillow for Mingrong, thinking that they could chat until dawn if they squeezed together.
Who knows, there was a knock on the door.
At first, Mingzhu and Qiaoqiao squeezed in together and climbed onto Jing Mingyue's bed on their own, intending to sleep there for one night.
The sisters were arguing for a while, but before they could start chatting, there was a knock at the door again.
"Who is it? We fell asleep." Before the older girls could speak, Mingzhu rushed to answer. Her voice pretended to be a little sleepy, but also revealed a hint of excitement.
"You guys are asleep, who is talking so late at night?" This caused a burst of laughter from both inside and outside.
Amidst laughter, Mingrong quickly got up and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, Zhuang and Yin were seen standing at the door with smiles on their faces, as if they already knew what was going on in the house.
"I knew you were here. It's a good thing it's only spring and still very cold, otherwise I wonder how you would sleep." Zhuang said this, and Mingrong, who let them in, found that they were each holding a large quilt. The quilt Yin was holding looked a little old, but it was washed clean.
"What are you doing, Madam? We're not cold." Mingrong thought it was funny. Two or three people were squeezed into one bed, and their butts were like stoves. The quilt was big and thick enough, so how could they be cold?
She looked at the two ladies and couldn't help laughing.
"You are allowed to squeeze in, but we can't?" Yin pretended to be unhappy and threw the old quilt in her hand down without caring whether the bluestone floor was dirty or not.
When the quilt was spread out, everyone realized they had brought pillows. Yin patted the quilt a few times to smooth it out. Then she sat down and lay on her pillow, patting the empty space with one hand. "Sister-in-law, hurry up."
"Hahaha!" Mother and Second Aunt also came to join them, and wanted to sleep on the floor together. It was really unexpected. Jing Mingyue laughed so hard that tears almost came out. But her mother and Second Aunt's actions made her feel very warm.
"Aunt, you're so funny!" Jing Chunxi was stunned. Two ladies who were supposed to be dignified and graceful were now sleeping on the floor. This scene really caught her off guard. She looked at her two aunts, not knowing what to say, she just wanted to laugh.
"Great, Mingzhu, go down and sleep with your mother." Mingzhu immediately threw off the quilt and wanted to jump down. She thought it would be more comfortable on the floor, and she could sleep with her mother.
"Stop, come down and sleep on the floor with me." Jing Mingyue also threw back the quilt and immediately dangled her feet off the bed. She said to the two people on the floor, "Mother, you and Second Aunt come up and sleep on my bed. Qiaoqiao, Mingzhu, and I will sleep on the floor."
After saying this, without waiting for the other two's agreement, he put on his shoes and squeezed towards the bed on the floor. Then, he landed on the two quilts almost at the same time as Qiaoqiao and Mingzhu.
"You're quite filial." Seeing her daughter being so filial, Zhuang was in high spirits. She sat up and pulled Yin over, "Hurry up, or you'll be kicked out with these two little monkeys."
Mingzhu, who originally wanted to sleep with her stepmother, should have long forgotten the hardships of sleeping on the floor and using the sky as a blanket and the ground as a bed during her exile. She rolled into the quilt and played with Qiaoqiao, and no longer planned to sleep with her stepmother.
"Xi'er, let's talk about Qingshan Villa again."
Whenever he was free during the day, he would find Jing Chunxi and ask him questions, but there were too many people and Jing Chunxi couldn't handle it all.
Everyone didn't hear enough during the day, so now they don't even let it go during their sleep time.
A single dim oil lamp lit the room, its weak light illuminating everyone's expectant faces. Jing Chunxi sat by the bed, smiled faintly, and began to tell the story of Qingshan Villa.
She knew everyone's concerns, so she didn't feel annoyed. Instead, she talked about the children of her two aunts in order of their age.
All the children left in the capital by Zhuang were illegitimate sons and daughters. Although she cared about them, she did not have the same concern for the legitimate children. She just listened quietly, nodded slightly occasionally, and did not deliberately ask about the specific situation of any child.
There was a hint of relief in her eyes. Hearing that the children were safe and hardworking, she felt at ease.
