Chapter 82: Accidental
Emperor Jingtai looked at the object in front of him, evoking his dusty memory for a long time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At that time, I was about three or four years old, and I liked to pester my grandfather to tell stories, and I came to this palace early every day to wait.
In order to let him go out to play, the emperor's grandfather found a skilled craftsman and bought himself a car like this, which seemed to be three-wheeled...
The New Year is approaching, and the thirteenth who returned to Beijing sent his new bicycle into the palace, half showing off and half filial piety.
Qinglan said that riding more bicycles is good for physical and mental health, and Thirteen suggested that his father should not take a sedan chair when walking in the palace in the future, and ride a bicycle directly, which is fast.
The angry Emperor Jingtai flew over with a pile of folds at the thirteenth, I can obviously sit without effort, why do I have to push myself hard!
Emperor Jingtai remembered his young self and obediently listened to the words of the emperor's grandfather: "Jin'er rides around the palace, and the emperor's grandfather is busy, and when Jin'er comes back, how about the emperor's grandfather tell Jin'er a story?" ”
Why was I so stupid at that time, I happily agreed, in order to listen to the story earlier, I kicked and pedaled vigorously...
Thinking of this, Emperor Jingtai couldn't help but glare at his youngest son again, stinky boy, I don't think it's tiring enough to deal with so many government affairs every day, right?
Father-in-law Shi, who was lying on the ground and picking up folds, couldn't help but slander, has the emperor recently had early menopause, and he lost his temper at every turn, and he didn't know how many folds he had to pick up in a day... Your Majesty, the minion is not a husky... No need to walk...
Thirteen stepped back, he seemed to have slapped the horse's leg, oh no, the dragon's leg, uh, the dragon's claw...
Emperor Jingtai simply threw down the red pen, supported his cheek with one hand, and let himself fall into the memories of the past.
Imperial grandfather... He is a very special person, at least, he has never seen anyone like the emperor's grandfather again.
There is no woman in the harem, if it weren't for the father, the world might think that the emperor's grandfather didn't love women.
In fact, they didn't know that the imperial grandfather had always loved a woman, but unfortunately she was dead, so the imperial grandfather overhauled the imperial mausoleum and buried it with his beloved. I don't know if she's my own grandmother.
It should be, Jingtai remembered his own father, who had no mother when he was a child, and grew up with his grandfather in the army.
The emperor's grandfather had only one son, but the father's father had several sons.
When I was still very young, I thought about this question: who would my father give the throne to?
The little man began to can't help but compare himself with his brothers, and the more he compared, the more anxious he became, until the emperor's grandfather woke up to himself: a country is like a big car full of travelers, and the Son of Heaven is the coachman. The person who drives the car is not necessarily full of wealth, but most importantly, he can drive and know where the destination is.
After that, whenever he was jealous of his father's praise or love for his brothers, he would always think of the words of his grandfather, he did not dare to say that he was a master driver, but he would definitely do his best to drive the car of Dashun.
Right now... Emperor Jingtai touched the handrail of the bicycle and fell into deep thought, he had been an emperor for twenty years, and he also encountered the problem of choosing a prince. It's not that he doesn't know the small actions of his sons in private, but he can't reach out, maybe it's right to put Thirteen outside, at least not like those children.
Emperor Jingtai suddenly said to Shi Gong: "Get out of the palace." ”
Father-in-law Shi: (⊙o⊙) Huh? Out of Gong?
"I'm going to change my clothes." Emperor Jingtai said and walked towards the inner hall.
Only then did Gonggong Shi react, and the emperor said "out of the palace", not "out of the palace".
Your Majesty, where are we going, Your Majesty?
"Wander the streets." Emperor Jingtai seemed to hear Shi Gonggong's heart, and added a sentence before stepping into the threshold.
Yes?! Go again?!
Father-in-law Shi wants to cry without tears, Your Majesty, you are not doing your job...
Emperor Jingtai has recently become obsessed with going out of the palace to "wander".
It's really a "stroll", getting out of the imperial city and getting out of the car to wander around the streets, sometimes going into small alleys to wander around.
Father-in-law Shi felt that his legs were running thin, what was the emperor "strolling"?
******
The sky was gray, and Shu Lao Er drove the carriage very quickly.
On the morning of the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, the family returned to Weixian County with a large bag for the New Year.
When she arrived at the old house, Qinglan ran into the alley first, but when she opened the door, the door was locked.
"Dad~" Qinglan shouted at Shu Lao Er behind her, she was still holding a lot of things in her arms.
"It's weird," Shu Lao Er took out the keychain and looked for them one by one, "Your aunt and Ming Ran should be at home." ”
"Maybe Xiao Ran went to her grandmother's house." Qinglan said unconcernedly.
The others didn't care, they were busy during the Chinese New Year, so they might be doing something.
It was dark, and no one in the family came back.
Shu Lao Er realized that something was wrong, even if the whole family went to work, it was time to get off work.
I asked my neighbors, but I didn't know, I didn't hear that I was going to go far away. Shu Lao Er couldn't sit still on the spot, he was going to find someone in the eldest brother's medical hall.
Pan Erniang added a piece of skin to him, and the northwest wind in Weixian County is not ordinarily big.
Qinglan and Brother Mingyu packed up and sat under the lamp to read, accompanying Pan Erniang and others to come back.
This waited until the third watch, and the gate was still quiet.
Pan Erniang is also anxious, why don't you go home one by one!
was chatting with Qinglan and the two, the door finally rang, and two figures came in, Pan Erniang looked at it, it was not Shu Laoer, but Ming Zhuang and Ming Ran.
"Second aunt." The two children were so cold that their teeth were shaking when they spoke, and their snot was sticking on their faces.
"Have you eaten?" Pan Erniang caught up with the two children on the kang, and when she saw the two children, she shook her head, put on her coat and walked out, "Second aunt will get you a hot meal to eat first." “
Qinglan and Mingyu put down the books and sat around them in a pile.
"Sister." Mingzhuang's words are still indistinct, but his body is obviously much better than before.
"What's going on?" Qinglan poured hot water from the kang table, and their family stopped drinking tea after dinner.
Both siblings looked at each other and bowed their heads without squeaking.
Qinglan and Mingyu glanced at each other, their eyes were worried, but they didn't chase and ask, they only helped the frozen brother and sister to keep warm.
The room was silent like this, and Qinglan wanted to pick up a conversation several times, but saw that Ming Zhuang and Ming Ran seemed to have tears in the corners of their eyes, so they accepted the idea of chatting.
The hot water and marinade are ready-made, Pan Erniang's noodles are made quickly, and there is a poached egg in a bowl, and Brother He'er is hungry.
Ming Ran and Ming Zhuang rolled up their sleeves and devoured them, as if they hadn't eaten for a long time and were hungry.
After eating and drinking, Pan Erniang sent the brothers and sisters back to the East Cross Courtyard and made them a warm house and a hot kang before coming back.
"Mother, what's wrong?" As soon as Pan Erniang returned to the house, Qinglan couldn't wait to inquire, after staying for so long, her mother could always ask something.
"Don't talk about it, go to sleep." Pan Erniang looked tired and didn't want to mention it.
Qinglan's heart is like a cat's paw, adults are always like this, and they hide everything first. If there is anything difficult, let's brainstorm to solve it!
It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Shu Lao Er came back from outside, and he came back with Qin and Erlang Sanlang.
Shu Lao Er fell asleep when he came back, and he didn't even eat dinner.
Pan Erniang was locked in the main room with the Qin family, and the two concubines didn't know what to talk about until late at night, Qinglan didn't wait for Pan Erniang, and fell asleep first.
On the third day, Qinglan was dug up from the bed by Shu Lao Er early in the morning, "Go see your third uncle." ”
What's wrong with the third uncle? Qinglan was surprised.
After Shu Lao Er finished speaking, Qinglan suddenly felt that the old Shu family was not in a good year, and it was time to go to Shangxiang to ensure safety. I don't know which god I offended, the second aunt's matter hasn't been dealt with yet, and this time it's the third uncle's turn.
Shu Laosan was sick, very sick, and vomited blood every day.
After listening to her father's description, Qinglan analyzed it in combination with modern medical knowledge, and it was very likely that her third uncle had a malignant tumor in his body, commonly known as cancer.
The reason why I can't swallow it, and the filth that I vomit every day emits a special stench, and at the same time, it is accompanied by a large amount of blood, and it is supposed that the tumor is around the stomach, so this situation is caused.
This disease will be difficult to cure in a few hundred years, let alone the backward medical equipment!
"Why did the third uncle get this disease?" Qinglan privately thought that the frequent occurrence of cancer in later generations was closely related to various pollution, but she didn't expect the third uncle to be so back!
"Your uncle said that he didn't eat well, and he couldn't eat anything."
In order to save a few more money, Shu Laosan was reluctant to eat and wear, just to make Ming Zhuang take a few more medicines.
Alas... Pity the hearts of parents all over the world.
Shu Laosan's condition was even more serious than Qinglan imagined.
His stomach pain has not been a year or two, and he always thought he was hungry before, and it passed without worrying.
Who knew that just after lunch two days ago, he vomited blood before he could start work, which frightened everyone in the shop and sent him to the hospital immediately.
This vomit was out of control, eating and drinking, and the medicine could not be saved, and Shu Laosan saw that he had lost weight.
Wang Yufen quit her job and served her husband in the hospital, Qin helped cook and deliver food, and Ming Zhuang and Ming Ran also stayed by his father's side to replace his mother.
Qinglan didn't like Wang Yufen's attitude.
The third uncle was already sick like this, and Wang Yufen also accused him from time to time, saying that Shu Laosan was to blame for being sick like this.
Shu Laosan didn't refute either, and let her say and listen to her with a smile, so that everyone didn't know how to speak.
Aunt Shu also came, and after Aunt Shu's incident, she looked much older, and her temples were all white. Now Shu Laosan is in this situation again, Aunt Shu is haggard, and she cheers up to take care of her younger brother.
On the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, Shu Laosan was taken home by everyone, and Shu Laoer held his younger brother, who was about the same weight as his son, and his heart was bitter.
"Ugh..."
At night, the two couldn't sleep, Pan Erniang said to her husband: "What do you say these two children are doing?" ”
It's still the matter of Shu's third family that worries.
"It's really not good, let's take it and raise it." Although Shu Lao Er is not often in Weixian, some things can't be hidden from him.
Wang Yufen's two sisters have begun to inquire about the next family for their younger sister, and there is no old man in the Shu family, if the third child has something, Wang Yufen will definitely not be able to keep it.
Pan Erniang also heard the rumors from the eldest sister, and felt that Wang Yufen was pitiful, lamentable, and even more hateful.
The two children are still so young, how can she, a mother, bear it!
It's just that Ming Ran is okay, except for the thin point, there is nothing wrong with it, but Ming Zhuang... He spends half of the year taking medication, and as he gets older, his hearing gets worse and worse.
What kind of family can afford a nephew like Ming Zhuang, Pan Erniang is afraid that she will be kind but end up with a no, Ming Zhuang's situation is there.
Shu Lao Er naturally knows this, but his younger brother is such a lone seedling, he can't let him go uneasy, and the incense is cut off behind him.
Not only Shu Lao and his wife, but Shu Lao and his wife are also worried.
"Mingzhuang... Is it okay? Qin asked her husband cautiously.
"It's good to be early," Boss Shu said angrily, "No matter what, we can't lose the two children!" ”
The Qin family nodded, the conditions at home are better now, so let's think I have two more children.
Without oxygen, esophagus, or morphine, Shu Laosan stopped breathing the day after his birthday.
Jingtai has been twenty years, and the Shu family's year is destined to be lonely.
Seeing off Shu Laosan, Mingyu was also preparing to go back to Jinan, Mr. Ji told him to end this year, and he had to go back early to prepare.
There is also Brother Huan'er who is walking with Mingyu, and he can't help much here, so it's better to go back to practice and study early.
Qinglan stayed to help the family deal with the follow-up things, and the trivial housework is easy to say, it is where the two children go...
As soon as Shu Lao's three heads were seven, Wang Yufen rolled up her baggage and left, Ming Zhuang and Ming Ran stood at the door of the east house, and Mu Tingting watched his mother leave, and did not stop it.
Wang Yufen didn't leave anything to say, although the two children can take care of themselves, what can they rely on to live?
Boss Shu and Er Shu didn't stop her, only Pan Erniang chased Wang Yufen and didn't let her go, at least don't abandon the two children now, they just lost their father!
Wang Yufen pursed her lips and didn't speak, and walked out of the alley quickly, a navy blue sedan chair was waiting on the side of the road, Pan Erniang knew that no one could chase Wang Yufen back.
Until many years later, Qinglan couldn't forget Wang Yufen's resolute back, she felt very glad that she was not born in someone else's family, and her parents were both enlightened and loving children.
Ming Zhuang wanted to follow Shu Lao'er and his family to Jinan, but Ming Ran wanted to stay in Weixian and stay with his uncle.
For the first time, the siblings had a huge disagreement, and even the adults could not persuade them.
When Qinglan brought lunch into the East House, the two siblings were still angry.
"Xiao Ran, isn't it good to follow my sister?" It wasn't until the two children had finished eating their meals that Qinglan asked.
"Sister," Ming Ran's eyes widened, "It's good to follow you, but my brother..."
"Xiao Ran," Qing Lan caressed her little face lovingly, and overnight, Ming Ran was forced to grow, "You think too much, we are a family, my sister won't feel troublesome, and neither will your second uncle." Mingzhuang is good, and we are happy. ”
"But..."Ming Ran hesitated: "I still want to study medicine with my uncle..."
Or for the sake of Mingzhuang, Qinglan smiled: "You can also learn when you go to Jinan, my sister has a friend who is the nephew of Imperial Physician Qin, you can worship him as a teacher." ”
Ming Ran lowered her head and stopped talking, she still didn't want to leave here, this was her home, and her father had to guard her home and brother before he died. Ming Ran stubbornly thought that as long as she was obedient, maybe one day, their family would still be together.
