Chapter 340: Memories of Bei Ming and Nan Ling
"Nan Jin, can you let me hug Cheng Cheng?"
The second elder looked at the little Chengcheng in Ming Nanjin's arms, his eyes full of love and nostalgia.
Xiao Chengcheng's lively appearance made him feel as if he saw Bei Ming Nan Ling when she was a child. An indescribable feeling of intimacy surged in his heart, and he really wanted to hug this lovely child.
Ming Nanjin looked at Xiao Chengcheng. He knew that he had to respect Xiao Chengcheng's wishes in this matter.
Little Chengcheng opened his big watery eyes and looked curiously at the old but expectant elder in front of him. He hesitated for a moment and finally nodded obediently.
The second elder of the clan carefully took Little Orange, his movements so gentle as if he was holding the most precious treasure in the world.
He gently stroked Xiao Chengcheng's hair, and his thoughts drifted back to Bei Ming Nan Ling's childhood.
At that time, Bei Ming Nan Ling was the happy fruit of the whole family. She had a pair of bright big eyes, always flashing with curiosity and smartness.
Although she is a small person, she is full of energy and courage.
The second elder held little Cheng Cheng in his arms, turned his gaze to Ming Nanjin, and slowly said, "Nanjin, your mother Beiming Nanling was a clever and naughty child when she was young. I remember one time, the family organized the children to go to the orchard to pick fruits. Your mother, although small in stature, ran faster than anyone else and went deep into the orchard in a flash. We elders waited outside for a long time, but we didn't see her come out, and we were very anxious. Later, we sent people to look for her, and found that she was sitting on the branch of a big tree, holding a bunch of fruits in her arms, smiling happily, and proudly told us that she had found the biggest and sweetest fruits."
The elder of the clan took over the conversation: "Also, when Nan Ling was little, she loved reading. She went to the family study almost every day. Once, in order to find an ancient book, she turned the study upside down, and finally found it in a corner. She jumped up and down with joy. Her thirst for knowledge is really admirable."
The third elder also fell into reminiscence: "Nan Jin, you don't know that your mother is very brave. Once, we took the children to the mountains for training and encountered a big snake. The other children were scared and stepped back, but your mother picked up a branch and rushed towards the snake. Although it was our elders who drove the snake away in the end, her bravery impressed everyone."
The fourth elder of the clan continued, "Nan Ling is a kind-hearted child. An old servant in the clan fell ill and had no one to take care of him. When your mother found out, she went to visit him every day and helped deliver medicine and food. She was not afraid of the hard work at all."
The second elder added: "When she was a child, she always pricked her fingers when learning needlework, but she never gave up. Although the things she embroidered were crooked at first, she kept practicing and her embroidery became better and better."
The elder added, "One Spring Festival, the family organized a performance for the children. Your mother volunteered to go on stage and sing a song. Her voice was clear and melodious, like a nightingale, and won rounds of applause from everyone."
The third elder recalled: "Nan Ling has a strong sense of justice. Once, she saw a child from another tribe bullying a child from our family. Without saying a word, she went up to teach the child a lesson, but she was also slightly injured. But she didn't care at all and said that no one in the family should be bullied."
The elder of the fourth clan said: "She was also very filial to her elders. One time on my birthday, she made a sachet for me by hand. Although the stitching was a little rough, the thought touched me for a long time."
The second elder continued, "When Nan Ling was a child, the family held a poetry competition. Although she was young, she showed extraordinary talent, and the poems she wrote amazed the adults present."
The elder of the clan said with emotion: "She is always curious about new things. Once, a circus troupe came outside, and she watched without blinking an eye, and even pestered them to learn a few tricks."
The third elder smiled and said, "Nan Ling is also a leader in the school. She always ranks among the top in her studies, and the teacher always praises her highly."
The fourth elder recalled: "Once, a batch of new flowers were introduced into the family garden. Your mother went there every day to observe them, and she also carefully took notes and studied the habits of these flowers."
The second elder said: "She also likes small animals very much. The cats and dogs at home are all very close to her. Once a puppy got lost, and she searched for it for a whole day before she found it."
The elder of the clan continued, "Nan Ling once secretly followed the family's caravan out to see the outside world. We found out that she was missing and were extremely anxious. Later, when the caravan came back, we learned that she was very excited along the way and was curious about everything."
The elder of the third tribe said: "When she was a child, she flew kites with her friends. In order to make the kite fly higher, she ran for several miles."
The elder of the fourth clan said: "Nan Ling is also talented in cooking. Once she tried to make dim sum by herself. Although the first time she made it, it didn't look good, but it tasted good."
The second elder said: "She is also interested in painting and often stays in her room painting until late at night."
The elder of the clan recalled: "Once the family held an archery competition, and your mother insisted on participating. Everyone thought she couldn't do it, but she actually hit the target with several arrows, which surprised everyone."
The third elder continued: "When Nan Ling was a child, she had a dream to make the family more prosperous and let everyone live a happy life."
The elders of the four clans sighed: "She was always so full of energy and brought countless joy and warmth to the family."
Several elders of the clan chatted one after another, recalling every detail of Bei Ming Nan Ling's childhood, their eyes filled with nostalgia and emotion.
Ming Nanjin listened quietly, as if she saw her mother's vivid childhood, and the image of her mother in her heart became fuller and more intimate.
Little Chengcheng was also listening quietly in the arms of the clan elders. Little Chengcheng had never seen her mother, so she couldn't empathize with what the clan elders said. However, Ming Nanjin was brought up by Bei Ming Nanling. Now, hearing what the clan elders said, Ming Nanjin fell into the pain of memories.
When he was a child, his mother used to tell him the same thing before he went to bed, telling him stories about his mother's childhood as bedtime stories.
Listening to the words of several elders, Ming Nanjin clenched his fists tightly. He would never let Bei Ming Mo go!
Several elders also realized that they seemed to have lost their composure and quickly wiped their wrinkled faces.
Little Chengcheng looked at the face of the second elder and stretched out his little hand to gently wipe away the tears on his face.
The second elder of the clan felt even more sad and hugged Xiao Chengcheng tightly.
The elder of the clan stood up angrily and shouted to the outside of the door: "Butler, go call the elders of the Anke clan over!"
