Chapter 2 Silver Bell

Upon hearing this, Yang Ying immediately remembered the past. At that time, she was ten years old and Zhang Yu was seven years old. The two of them went up the mountain to pick peaches to eat. As a result, she accidentally twisted her foot and cried in pain. Zhang Yu wanted to carry her home, but she couldn't use her legs and couldn't get up at all. Zhang Yu forced her to carry her up just like he did just now. As a child, Zhang Yu was so thin that after walking ten miles home, he couldn't get up.

With the past events still fresh in her mind, Yang Ying felt sad and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, let's go..."

"What are you saying you're sorry for?" Zhang Yu was puzzled. He grabbed the big travel bag on the ground and asked, "Where is your home and how to get there?"

"It's not far away. After passing the street in front, turn left, then turn right and you'll be there." Yang Ying said with a little choked up.

Zhang Yu responded and stepped away in the direction pointed by Yang Ying.

He was carrying someone on his back and an oversized travel bag in his hand, so walking was inevitably a bit awkward. Yang Ying also noticed it and said, "Let me carry the travel bag for you."

"Forget it, you can't carry it." Zhang Yu said directly: "It's more than fifty kilograms, I can only carry it."

Yang Ying was even more embarrassed when she heard that it was so heavy. She held Zhang Yu's neck with both hands, feeling mixed emotions in her heart, including an indescribable feeling.

Arriving at the place Yang Ying mentioned, this was a relatively new community. When entering the house, the house was not as luxurious as Zhang Yu imagined. It was just a small house with one bedroom and one living room, not as big as Zhang Yu's house. . Even the decoration is really ordinary.

Although Zhang Yu is considered a country bumpkin who came to the city, it doesn't mean that he doesn't understand anything. The car Yang Ying drove back during the Chinese New Year was a Passat, which was quite new. I heard it cost at least 200,000 yuan. Moreover, Yang Ying said that she married a rich man. Why would a rich man live in such a big house? Don't they say that people in the city live in high-rise buildings. The most important thing is, where will I sleep?

After carrying Yang Ying into the bedroom and lying down on the bed, Zhang Yu asked: "Little aunt, where is my uncle?"

Seeing Zhang Yu asking this question, Yang Ying couldn't help but sigh and said: "It's already here, and I won't hide it from you. I have been in Zhenhai for a few years, and I only work as a salesperson in a real estate agency. I earn about the same amount in a month." That is to say, I can provide enough food and clothing. They say that gold is everywhere in Zhenhai, but I don’t have this life. Who wouldn’t be greedy when I see other women wearing gold, silver, and high-end cosmetics? When I was selling a house, I met a A rich old man, who was already sixty years old, actually pursued me. I married him cruelly for his money. I thought I could live a life of plenty, but I didn’t expect that within half a year of getting married, he fell in love with me. He died of a sudden cerebral thrombosis. This old bastard was so cunning. He notarized his property before getting married, and also made a will. After his death, all the inheritance will belong to his son. A few days ago, there was a lawsuit, and I got nothing. After I got it, there was only one real estate agency he opened for me. Fortunately, I hid my intentions and my name was written on the contract. Now I am not as prosperous as I was during the Chinese New Year, even the matter of me marrying the old man, and I didn’t even dare to tell my family about the old man’s death…”

After saying these words, Yang Ying smiled bitterly and even shed sad tears. Think about how easy it has been for you these past few years. As a real estate salesperson, you have to run and break your legs every day and still make little money. It's hard to be greedy for vanity once, and you will lose both your life and wealth. If you marry another person, it will be a second marriage.

Seeing Yang Ying crying, Zhang Yu quickly said: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked blindly..."

"It's nothing. You can't hide this kind of thing, but it's good that you know it. Don't talk nonsense to your family..." Yang Ying warned.

"Don't worry, I keep my mouth shut." Zhang Yu said seriously.

"It's better to be strict... By the way, when I came back, I forgot to buy safflower oil. There is a pharmacy downstairs. Can you help me buy a bottle." Yang Ying said.

"You don't need this. I brought some wine, which is better than safflower oil..."

Zhang Yu said as he opened his oversized travel bag.

He first took out a large bag of apples, followed by a large bag of chestnuts and a large bag of mushrooms, and said with a smile: "They are all our own things. My mother said that you can never get them in big cities." Eat, let me bring it to you for a taste..." As he spoke, he unexpectedly pulled out a Taoist robe, a peach wood sword, cinnabar, talismans, compasses, etc., and a wrinkled Envelope, finally found a bottle of wine.

"What kind of mess are you talking about?" Yang Ying looked at the things Zhang Yu pulled out and couldn't help but frown. No wonder the contents in this bag weighed fifty kilograms.

"Didn't I apprentice with Mr. Wang in his birthday material shop when I was a child? Last year, he suddenly said that he was going to be an official, so he left these things to me. By the way..." Zhang Yu said with a smile, and then picked up the The wrinkled envelope was very tightly stained, and there seemed to be a hard object inside. There was no writing on the cover. He added: "This letter was given to me by Master before he left. He said that if I have the opportunity to come to Zhenhai in the future, , I went to Wudang Taoist Temple and gave this letter to my uncle. But the address... was ruined by my mother when she was washing clothes... You have been in Zhenhai for so long, do you know where Wudang Taoist Temple is? ?”

Yang Ying frowned when she heard this, and said angrily: "You can't be promising! Zhenhai Administrative District is huge, with more than 20 executive districts and counties below. I don't even know where the Po Taoist Temple is. You can look for it slowly in the future, but I advise you to save it... My feet are hurting now. Does your medicinal wine work? Bring it over and give it to me to try."

After saying this, Yang Ying propped herself up with her arms and sat up.

"Don't worry about this, keep it safe..." Zhang Yu immediately opened the bottle of Didajiu, wiped some on his hands, sat down at the foot of the bed, grabbed Yang Ying's feet, and began to apply it on the ankles.

Yang Ying's body trembled when Zhang Yu grabbed her ankle. To be honest, her feet had never been touched by a man before. But then I thought about it, Zhang Yu is not an outsider. We grew up together when we were young. This is just to rub medicine on ourselves, what can we do?

Yang Ying's ankle was swollen quite high. It was originally quite painful, but after being rubbed by the medicinal wine, she immediately felt a burning sensation. This feeling was a little sad at first, but the pain in my ankle disappeared, and gradually the hot feeling softened, and it was so comfortable.

But seeing Zhang Yu rubbing his feet with his hands and his serious look, Yang Ying would inevitably feel embarrassed. After all, she was no longer a child. Suddenly, Yang Ying saw something on Zhang Yu's wrist. It was a red rope, and a silver bell was tied to the red rope.

"He...he still has..." When she saw the silver bell, Yang Ying's heart trembled again, and the past events came to her mind.
