Chapter 116: A dilemma
"In my life, as long as there is a person who truly knows and loves each other, it is enough. ”
Although I know that in this dynasty, three wives and four concubines are a normal thing. But Xue Ning has received modern education since he was a child, and he can only accept monogamy.
Now that she is moved by Li Yinhong, she naturally hopes to be a couple for the rest of her life. If she wants to share Li Yinhong with another woman, then Xue Ning would rather not.
Li Yinhong understood what Xue Ning cared about, and said these words to make her feel at ease.
Listening to Li Yinhong's words, Xue Ning immediately showed a bright smile: "This is what you said, I take it seriously." If one day you disobey what you say, I will never forgive you. ”
"Don't worry, I will never fail you in this life. Li Yinhong pursed her lips and sat down with her promise.
After having lunch at Li Yinhong's place, Xue Ning went back to the Guogong Mansion. As soon as he got out of the carriage, Xue Ning saw Xia He running out in a hurry, and hurriedly greeted him: "Xia He, what's wrong?"
"Miss, you can be regarded as coming back, the old lady fainted. Seeing Xue Ning, Xia He hurriedly pulled her and walked inside.
Hearing the news that the Duchess of Huguo had fainted, Xue Ning did not delay at all, and followed Xia He to the mansion.
When he arrived at the courtyard of the Duchess of Huguo, the doctor was treating him, and Xue Ning walked up to Song Hong with an anxious look: "Brother, how is grandmother?"
"The doctor is still in there, don't worry, nothing will happen. Song Hong's heart was also very worried, but in the face of Xue Ning's flustered appearance, he could only say something of relief.
Although Song Hong said so, Xue Ning was still very worried. The Duchess of Huguo should also be older, and she was hit by the death of her own children before, and her health has not been good.
After a while, the doctor walked out and waved at the two: "Young master, miss, don't worry too much. The old lady fainted only because she had been too tired lately. ”
"Too tired?" Xue Ning frowned slightly, and turned to look at Song Hong, "Grandmother, what are you doing lately?"
Song Hong thought about it carefully and shook his head: "As far as I know, grandmother has been no different from usual recently, and she hasn't done anything too tiring. ”
"Doctor, in this case, why does my grandmother still overwork and faint?" "To cure the disease, you must first find the root of the disease, and the doctor can use medicine to make the Duchess of the Protector's body temporarily better, but if the cause of the Duchess Protector's fatigue is not found, such a thing will still happen.
When the doctor heard this, he sighed lightly: "I have been seeing the old lady for many years, so I said it bluntly. The old lady had been badly injured and had a serious illness before. Although he was well, his health was not good. Now it seems that this body is becoming more and more empty, and I am afraid that ......"
After that, the doctor didn't continue, but everyone present understood. Xue Ning's eyes suddenly turned red, and the tears in his eyes were forced back: "Please also ask the doctor to bother to take care of my grandmother's body." ”
"That's for sure, miss, rest assured. Not finding the lost granddaughter has always been the old lady's heart disease, and now that the young lady is back, it can be regarded as fulfilling one of the old lady's wishes. ”
Xue Ning pursed her lips and showed a smile: "I also hope that I can fulfill all my grandmother's wishes and let her not leave any regrets." ”
It's not like death doesn't happen if you don't want to talk about it. Since the Duchess of the Protector's body is already so weak, I am afraid that this limit will not be too long.
Instead of avoiding these things all the time, it is better to take advantage of the remaining time to fulfill all the wishes in the old lady's heart, and then let her leave no regrets.
The old lady woke up quickly, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Xue Ning standing next to her, smiling at her with concern: "Grandmother, you are awake." How does your body feel?"
"It's nothing, my grandmother is just old and in poor health, and it's all ** sick. The Duchess of the Protector sat up and reached out to take Xue Ning's hand, "Child, it's really good that you can come back." ”
As she spoke, the Duchess of the Protector's eyes turned red, and then she burst into tears. This is the first time since Xue Ning came back to see the Duchess of the Protector crying.
Xue Ning sometimes forgets what the old man in front of him has experienced. The children she gave birth to all died on the battlefield, and the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, which is the most painful thing in the world.
"Grandmother, don't worry, I will always be by your side in the future, and I will not go anywhere. Xue Ning pursed his lips, his smile full of distress.
She felt sorry for the old man in front of her, and she felt sorry for what she had experienced. If he could, Xue Ning only hoped that he could use his current identity to comfort the old man in front of him.
"Grandmother, you have a good rest. I'll go to the kitchen and make porridge for you, and when you wake up, you can drink it. ”
The Duchess of Huguo did not refuse, Xue Ning helped her up, let her talk on the bed, and after covering the quilt, Xue Ning left.
Leaving the courtyard of the Duchess of Huguo, Xue Ning and Song Hong went to the kitchen together, cooked in person, and cooked porridge for the Duchess Huguo: "Brother, you don't have to accompany me here, after I am done, I will send it to my grandmother." ”
"Ning'er, have you ever thought about leaving here?" Song Hong stood aside and looked at her lightly.
When Xue Ning heard this, his face froze slightly, and he turned to look at Song Hong, slightly puzzled: "Why does my brother ask that?"
"Grandmother's body now should be recuperated in a quiet place. Here, my grandmother was afraid that she would not be able to recuperate in peace. ”
There are too many people staring at the Guogong Mansion and wanting the Guogong Mansion to lose power. The Duchess of the Protector is in charge of the backyard of the Guogong Mansion, and it is natural that she is exhausted how to get the best rest.
Song Hong's idea is indeed for the good of the Duchess of the Protectorate, but if he wants to leave here, then Xue Ning will be separated from Li Yinhong, and he will see him again later, but he doesn't know when.
On one side is the person she loves the most in the world, and the other is the person she loves the most in the world. This multiple-choice question, no matter who she chooses, means that she has to be separated from the other.
This is not the scenario that Xue Ning wants to see.
"I know that you and the prince are in love, and naturally I hope to be together forever. But you are not married yet, so you can't leave with you. Ning'er, grandmother is afraid that time is running out, and you should accompany her in these last days. ”
Xue Ning knew what Song Hong meant, but she hadn't made a decision in her heart: "Brother, I know what you mean, but I don't know what to do now is the most correct decision." So, give me a little more time to think about it. ”
"Okay, then you can make porridge well. Song Hong didn't force Xue Ning to decide to leave with them immediately, giving her time and space to think about what kind of decision she should make.
