21, Hai's
The little girl who was waiting at the door of the room asked Han Quercus to say goodbye, and hurriedly opened the door curtain, and a burst of heating came to her face. As soon as Han Oak entered the door, he heard his mother's voice, and when he looked at it, heh, the whole family had arrived.
In the three-bay big house, the red sandalwood Baibao partition with openwork carving for more than one year, rich flowers, and continuous patterns of longevity is divided into three rooms with one light and two dark, and the middle is the hall house, the west room is cleaned up for Mrs. Li to make storage, and the east room is Mrs. Li's bedroom. On the ground of the bluestone carved lotus, all the carpets of the rich carpet of the long-staple woven peony made in Guizi are paved, people go up quietly and silently, and it is very warm, the house is lit with four or five prosperous charcoal basins, and the fine silver frost carbon burns without even a trace of smoke.
Mrs. Li was lying on the eight-step bed of rosewood carved treasure inlaid mica, wearing a purple lambskin jacket with purple brown brocade and a soft goose down quilt.
Mrs. Li wore a delicately embroidered light gray satin forehead on her head, and there were no more pieces of jewelry on her head, but a hairpin with an emerald openwork pine crane and a pair of jade bracelets on her hand that was clear and dark green and extremely watery, even in the best jewelry store in Yangzhou, could not be taken out casually. This must be Li Haizhu's filial piety to his mother.
Mrs. Li's dress is really different from yesterday. But Mrs. Li's mind obviously did not take these things to heart, and anyone could see that her eyes only followed the daughter and granddaughter who were snuggled up next to her, and her eyes showed love from the bottom of her heart.
Sun Zhangyang was sitting on the pear blossom wooden circle chair on the side, smiling and watching his wife carefully feed his mother-in-law with medicine, holding a small jar of white jade, which was rose-colored candied fruit, and said to Mrs. Li with a smile: "Grandma, this is a plum fruit that is candied with rose nectar and osmanthus snow flakes by yourself, it is sour and sweet, and it is best to eat it after taking the medicine." If you take one pill, you won't feel bitter when you take the medicine. ”
Mrs. Li sighed: "Good girl, I will feel bitter there now, with you in front of me, even drinking Coptis is as sweet as honey." ”
Han Quercus smiled and said, "Oh, I thought it was early, but I was the latest." Grandma, don't blame me, I just went to fold a plum blossom for you, you see, do you like this flower? ”
As soon as Mrs. Li saw Han Quercus, the wrinkles on her face smiled: "Good boy, come over and warm up." On a cold day, you run to pick some flowers. How is it good to freeze. I'm an old woman, and I still pay attention to what I do with so much flower powder. ”
Mrs. Li was holding the stained clothes in one hand and the Han oak in the other, and she was reluctant to let go. Look at this and look at that. After a while, he choked up and said: "Now that I am in front of you, I will die immediately, and I can close my eyes." It's just that there is one more thing that is always on my mind now: in recent years, the older I get, the more I think about my youth, and the more I miss my parents. I knew in my heart that it had been almost 40 years, and most of my parents were gone. It's just that when I think about it, I feel uncomfortable. Now that I am free, I must go to my parents' graves to pay respects, and it can be regarded as a time for my parents to give birth to my unfilial daughter. ”
Li Haizhu remembered the pain of missing her mother for many years, and felt like she was in tears.
Sun Zhangyang hurriedly pulled his wife over and comforted: "My mother-in-law is here now, what are you still sad about?" ”
Mrs. Li raised her hand, gently wiped away the tears on her face, and sighed: "Over the years, I have endured shame and humiliation, and I dare not reveal my background. But now, the more I get closer to running out of oil, the more I miss my parents and brothers. At this time, I can't tell you about the calendar."
She sighed: "My ancestor is the first-class founding assistant Su Guogong, whose surname is Hai Jing. My father was the third Suguo Gonghai Dongsheng. ”
Sun's father and son both gasped. Han Oak was young and ignorant, but Sun Zhangyang was surprised.
If you want to say that this Hai family, there are not many top-notch titles in Jinling City, which is full of princes, but what the Hai family can be proud of is wealth. Although the Sun family can be called a wealthy family in Yangzhou, compared with the Jinling Hai family, it can only be said that the fireflies are compared to the bright moon.
It is said that before the old man Hai pulled the pole to follow the founding emperor to make a revolution, the Hai family did a business with no capital on the sea: their family was the most powerful pirate in the East China Sea. Since following the founding emperor, with the courage of the Hai family, he has made countless contributions along the way. That's why he was given the title of Duke of the First Class. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Hai family was embarrassed to do their old business again, but with their familiarity with maritime affairs, the Hai family began to do maritime business openly. Over the decades, family affairs can no longer be described as "rich" alone. But as long as there are coral trees, white jade beds, jasper steps, and crystal beams, as long as there are in the world, his family is indispensable; There is nothing in the world, and his family abounds. It is really "pearls like earth and gold like iron", and it is difficult to speak of luxury.
This Hai family is strange, the men in the clan are extremely prosperous, there are ten brothers in the previous generation, and there are half a hundred brothers in this life, but the anode is declining, but the daughters are extremely rare. In his previous life, he had three daughters, and in this life, he was born and born, all of them were children. So everyone knows that the only thing the Hai family lacks is a daughter. Rare things are precious, and the daughters of the Hai family, not to mention the daughters of ordinary princesses, are more likely to be raised much more noble than ordinary princesses.
Sun Zhangyang sighed secretly, he couldn't imagine that such a pride girl of heaven who was so pampered would fall into such a state of poverty and illness.
Seeing that Han Quercus and Stained Yi had already wiped away the tears of Mrs. Li, and persuaded them to persuade them, they groaned and said, "Mother-in-law, don't be anxious, I will order someone to go to Jinling Haifu to inquire about the news." It's just that the weather is cold now, and secondly, your old man is still sick, if you rush to the road, I'm afraid that your body won't be able to bear it. According to the son-in-law, the top priority at the moment is for you to take care of your body carefully, and when the spring flowers bloom, your illness will be neat, and the weather will be warm. ”
Mrs. Li, oh, I'm going to be called the Hai family, I couldn't help nodding after hearing this, and said with relief: "It's still arranged by the virtuous son-in-law, it's my wife who is in a hurry." ”
The family's plan has been decided, and just after ordering breakfast, the Sun family of four has a lively meal around the Hai family. Sun Zhangyang said goodbye and went to the outer courtyard to deal with things, and glanced at Han Oak again and said, "Han Oak, you come with your father, I have something to tell you." ”
