44. 044: The Trap (I)
Xia Ruan rubbed his eyebrows, a little upset for a while.
If Li Changfeng is really her third uncle, then she will have to dissociate herself from the Yue family now.
How could it be Li Changfeng, how could this person be her third uncle.
As soon as Xia Ruan thought of this name, she felt that all the nightmares of the past had appeared in her mind, and she couldn't get rid of them.
She couldn't help but squeeze her mother's hand, as if she could know that her mother had hidden a secret in her heart for many years.
It's just that my mother is like this now...... She decided to suppress her fear for a moment and think about what to do next.
Cuiliu went to find Chen's mother again, and Xia Ruan should have gone in person, but Cuiliu seemed to be very flustered and wanted to hide from Xia Ruan to sober up alone.
Seeing that Cuiliu was so persistent, she didn't say anything anymore.
After all, Cuiliu also has its own difficulties.
Recently, it is said that the second aunt and grandmother who came to the door this time have a lot of temper, and almost all the people in the house have reprimanded her. Now even an old mother like Chen's mother, when she sees this second aunt and grandmother, she can only bow her head and dodge.
Although Xia Ruan didn't want to provoke Tang Jingxuan's mother, Yue, but now that they were under the same roof, it was not that she could hide if she wanted to.
Just like back then, she has always kept a low profile, but she will still be troubled by the Yue family.
Xia Ruan felt that her mother was trembling all over, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she muttered to herself: "No, don't, I can't go...... Mother, I can't, don't take me away. ”
The next mother's voice became smaller, and Xia Ruan couldn't hear what her mother was saying, but she was sure that her mother had a nightmare.
She nervously wiped the cold sweat off her forehead with a handkerchief for her mother, and couldn't help but call out loud: "Mother, mother, I'm Ruan girl, can you hear me?" ”
"Third brother, I don't want to be like this, it's my father who is sorry for my mother, I don't want to, don't blame me." Li Shi struggled so badly that he seemed to be trapped by something, and tears of anxiety fell out, "How can he ...... Third brother, how can Daddy ......"
When Li Shi said this, his eyes opened suddenly, only to see a little bloodshot in his eyes, and his face was full of horror.
Xia Ruan held her mother's hand tighter, and her heart felt as uncomfortable as a pinprick in her heart, because she didn't know what her mother meant by saying these words, what kind of nightmare would make her mother so out of shape.
Xia Ruan stabilized his mind and asked with some concern: "Mother? What's wrong? Where is it uncomfortable? ”
Li Shi felt that his mind was in chaos, how could it be this nightmare again, if it was really a nightmare, why would it be so real.
"Mother? Do you want to drink saliva? You ......" Xia Ruan saw that her mother's eyes were cloudy, and her heart became more and more worried, "Mother, where are you uncomfortable?" Tell your daughter about it. ”
After hearing the word 'daughter', Li's eyes gradually regained clarity, and his body trembled not as much as he did just now.
After a while, Li glanced at Xia Ruan, who was kneeling on the ** head, and wanted to laugh but found that he couldn't laugh, so he had to hook the corners of his lips shallowly: "Ruan girl, are you tired?" ”
As soon as this sentence came out, Xia Ruan's eyes suddenly turned red, even if her mother was sick and confused, she was still thinking and thinking about her. Even though she is very uncomfortable now, she opens her mouth to ask if she is tired.
In this world, the person who will put her on the tip of her heart is her mother.
Xia Ruan shook his head, and felt even more uncomfortable: "I'm not tired, mother, where are you uncomfortable?" I have already asked Cuiliu to hand over Chen's mother to invite the doctor, can you drink saliva to moisten your throat first? ”
Li Shi showed a bitter smile, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Okay." ”
Xia Ruan hurriedly turned around and went to the outer room to pour tea, her mother likes Pu'er, and she brought some with her when she came to Xianyang this time. The tea leaves given by the Yue family are all old tea from a few years ago, and I always feel a musty smell in my mouth when I drink it. Now that my mother is pregnant, how can she drink tea like that?
Xia Ruan sighed, did her cousin really deceive people too much, did she really think of them as beggars on the side of the road? You must know that when you come to the Yue family, you will cry bitterly and beg the Li family for help.
There are still some years left in the current sainthood, and this serious illness will make the people around him mistakenly think that the position of the great prince is strong. But as an emperor, who wants the power in his hands to be divided? Even if it's his own son, he will definitely kill the killer.
It's just that the eldest prince doesn't know these things, and he has never restrained his ambitions.
It's normal to lose a lot.
The Yue family, will they make the same foolish choice as before? Following the fate of the eldest prince and the sixth prince, she knows better than anyone else.
Xia Ruan gathered his mind a little, and then slowly walked to the inner room with the teacup.
The candlelight in the room was a little dim, making Li's face look a little haggard, her eyes were blank at this time, but her hands exposed outside the quilt were tightly clenched into a fist.
In my mother's heart, after all, there is something on my mind.
In the past, my mother may have been overwhelmed by these things, and she would choose to commit suicide by jumping into the river at the last time. If she didn't want this to happen again, she would have to untie her mother's knot.
But where do you untie this knot in your heart? Cuiliu refused to reveal more than half a word, judging from her father's daily affairs, her father seemed to know a little about her mother's life experience, but definitely not all.
Otherwise, according to his father's temper, he should have shown off to his uncle a long time ago.
Over the years, the eldest uncle's attitude towards his father and mother does not seem to have taken his mother into account at all, and it stands to reason that it should not be like this.
In the future, if the eldest uncle and eldest aunt know the identity of their mother, they will definitely be posted and wagging their tails and begging for mercy, and they will definitely not be half arrogant on weekdays.
If Li Changfeng is her third uncle, then the notoriously arrogant old man Li Tianqing is her maternal grandfather.
Xia Ruan glanced at her mother, still planning not to ask about these things in person.
Cuiliu is right, if her heart is bitter, her mother's heart is even more bitter.
"Mother...... Come and drink saliva. After Xia Ruan helped her mother up, she took a pillow and put it behind her mother, let her mother lean on it, and then handed over the tea, "Be careful, it's a little hot." ”
Li Shi smiled faintly, his expression had regained his tranquility, as if the panicked appearance just now was Xia Ruan's illusion.
"My mother is not a child, I know this." Li Shi took the teacup, took a sip of tea, and felt that the taste of this tea was fragrant, so he couldn't help but taste it again, "Your cousin is really hearted, and she actually remembers that I like Pu'er, I'm afraid this is this year's new tea, right?" ”
Looking at the smile on her mother's face, Xia Ruan didn't know how to answer.
Why did my mother think that it would be tea from my cousin at this time? If my cousin really cared about her mother, she wouldn't be so lazy these days. Then Xia Ruan looked at the satisfied smile on her mother's face, and her heart sank, and she couldn't explain, she was afraid of seeing her mother's disappointed expression.
Seeing that Xia Ruan didn't speak, Li Shi smiled and said, "Why hasn't Cuiliu come back yet, it's dark." ”
"It's coming." Xia Ruan comforted, but after Li mentioned this, Xia Ruan's heart also had doubts. It's been almost an hour, why hasn't Cuiliu come back? You must know that Lu Dao Cuiliu has never been a playful person.
Could it be that something happened to Cuiliu?
Before Xia Ruan could continue to speak, he heard a rush of footsteps outside the house.
She quickly stood up and looked at the outer room in a strange way.
At this time, I saw a little girl about eleven or twelve walking into the outer room, looking at Xia Ruan with an arrogant face: "Are you Xia Ruan?" ”
"I am? May I ask ...... you are" Although Xia Ruan was a little puzzled, he still showed calm between his words.
The little girl showed a sarcastic smile: "It turns out that you are Xia Ruan, so you also know Cuiliu, right?" This little cheap hoof was so bold that he dared to go to the second aunt's grandmother's room to steal something, and was caught by the prince. Hurry up, come with me to the second aunt's grandmother's room to give an explanation, after all, this is your family's descendant, and the old lady is already there. ”
