Chapter 187: Doubts
Early the next morning, Li Ping took a car to Anfu. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zeng Fan has gone to work, and if she doesn't show up again, I'm really sorry for Mrs. An. They came back for so long, Zeng Fan was sick, and the An family sent a housekeeper to deliver things, although everyone did the same, but the An family was in-law. The two old ladies of the He family, several wives came over together, including Mrs. He San, who had been quite sloppy about Li Ping before, also came.
The two young masters of the An family have also returned to Beijing and made a corresponding position in the ministry, and the An family seems to have fallen silent since An Yuan retired from the court.
The housekeeper went to the concierge to deliver the post, she came to meet the old lady, and she was a gift from the juniors. The time was longer than she expected, but she was sitting in a sedan chair this time, and she was also a super lady, and her status was much higher than that of Mrs. An Yuan. She really didn't need to stammer anyone.
Finally, the side door opened, and the old lady's mother-in-charge and Mama Liu came out together.
"Mrs. Zeng!" The two old ladies saluted the sedan chair together.
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Li Ping hurriedly came out of the sedan chair, the old mother took care of herself very well, and Mama Liu helped her raise Daxi'er single-handedly, and now she also helps Xi'er manage her dowry and private property. And, of course, the old lady wants to give them a private room. In front of these two, Li Ping would never dare to take Qiao.
"The old lady is talking about you, but it just so happens that you are here." The old lady smiled, pressed her eyes, and said softly.
"These days, the old man is sick again, and he has always wanted to come, but he has not been idle. Is the old lady okay? Li Ping decided not to sit in the sedan chair, and took the old lady into the house. didn't enter the second gate, but went directly to the west courtyard. The old lady was crooked on the kang, and when she saw Li Ping smiling and coming in with the old lady and Grandma Liu, she also laughed.
"It's just that you don't pay attention to it, and you can get a piece with anyone."
"What's that for? How tired! Ping'er salutes her mother! Li Ping let go of the old lady and gave the old lady a big gift seriously, she knew how to be grateful, if there was no old lady back then, they would not have been able to stand firm so quickly.
Although I listened to Zeng Fan's meaning, even if Zeng Fan didn't settle them back then, Zeng Fan would have moved seven times in ten years. In addition to being a little harder, I don't seem to have an impact on the overall situation. This made her a little uncomfortable, but the old lady was really significant to herself and Xi'er's growth, and the old lady could really afford this big gift.
The old lady finally sat up, but she didn't get off the kang, and she was busy calling people, "Hurry up, hurry up." ”
Li Ping still insisted on finishing the ceremony, and then stood up with the old lady's hand and sat next to the old lady.
"Master, how are you?" Li Ping couldn't help but redden her eyes when she saw the gray-haired old lady, the old lady was considered to have lived a long life, and they had been corresponding all these years, at this time, she regretted a little, she should have come to see the old lady earlier.
"Okay, okay! When did you get back? The old lady smiled and patted her hand and asked something that Li Ping didn't expect. Li Ping quickly looked at the person who looked down, and the old lady shook her head invisibly. Li Ping immediately thought that when she just entered the door, she had asked the old lady how she was, but the old lady did not answer at that time, but just opened the topic, and she didn't care about it at the time, and now it seems that the problem is a bit big.
"Yes, it's only been a few days since I came back, and my lord is sick again, so I can't come to see you right away." Li Ping smiled and shook the old lady's hand, at this time, the old lady's fingers that were once well maintained are now only a layer of skin. It's sad not to look at it.
"Why didn't you tell me when Zicheng was sick?" The old lady looked at the old woman.
"Yes, the old man of the in-laws will relapse when he returns to Beijing, and the little one is afraid that you will be in a hurry, so he didn't say it. You see, Madame Zeng is not here now, and she is afraid that you will be in a hurry. The old lady smiled and said.
"Exactly, how can the master be considered a junior in front of you, where can you still worry about it!" Although Li Ping didn't know what was going on, she hurriedly followed the old lady's words.
"Zicheng is still young, what should I do with this problem?" The old lady still worried about it, and pulled Li Ping to chatter, but she seemed to have forgotten the previous things again.
Li Ping sat with the old lady for a long time, and the old lady also took out the photos sent back by Xi'er to show her, Xi'er saw that her parents wanted a photo book, so she asked people to bring some photo books back, and the old lady also pasted the photo on the black album according to her own preferences. And the old lady still prefers Xi'er, and the photos of Xi'er are placed at the front.
Li Ping also likes to read photo books and chats happily with the old lady. But the doubts in her heart are getting bigger and bigger, she came early in the morning, and Mrs. An Yuan should come out to show her face even if she is the master's family. And the two daughters-in-law, as well as the granddaughters-in-law, should also come out to say goodbye, say hello, and arrange lunch, but there are only her and the old lady here, and then there are the old family members who are both old like the old lady but surrounded the old lady.
It was almost noon, the old lady finally came back, and when she saw Li Ping, she also smiled, "You are here, how is Zicheng?" ”
"As soon as I came back, I was sick, and I went to court yesterday. But when I came back, I was afraid that I would be called Zeng to shave my head. Li Ping saw that the old man was still tough, his eyes were attentive, and his heart was much calmer, and after he finished saluting, he spoke more naturally.
"He is not afraid, he is afraid that he will not risk the world's condemnation to manage the water master. Well done! The old man laughed, he now regarded Zeng Fan's achievements as his own, full of pride. He felt that Zeng Fan had done what he had not done, and he was honored, thinking about it and saying, "Have you prepared a meal?" What did Mrs. Zeng like, do you remember? ”
"Yes, it's ready, and when you come back, we'll start the table." The old lady said hurriedly.
"We are now divided into stoves, and there are many people in the family, which is troublesome." The old lady seemed to come back to her senses and said to Li Ping busily.
"Yes, I can only look at the photos now, and when the children come back, I'm afraid I'll have to kick them out, I'm afraid of making a fuss." Li Ping smiled, not daring to say anything about others, only about herself.
"Haven't finished yet? How did it take so long! The old lady took Li Ping's hand and was about to cry.
"Now that the kids are doing big things, and then what are they going to do, how can there be a place for them to live?" The old lady drank again.
"Just live in our hospital." The old lady whispered a reply, although she also knew that it was impossible.
"Now that Xi'er is in the eyes of the Queen of England, those British ministers have nothing to do with Xi'er, for example, we want to build our own arsenal, there were some bans before, and now we have signed an allied contract with them, and our shipyard can build mechanical ships. By the way, I made a small one for myself, thinking that I would go home if I wanted to go home in the future. The boat is fast, oh, it's noisy. At first, I was so noisy that my brain was buzzing and smelling. If I hadn't watched it fast, I wouldn't have wanted it. However, the old man later said that we Huaxia is that there are too many people like me, so we will get weaker and weaker. Typically, I want the horse to follow, but I don't want it to graze, how can there be such a good thing in the world? However, I still have some things to look down on them, so I asked the master to fence off Jingdezhen and make the porcelain fine, so that people can't catch up. Li Ping avoided the topic of the old lady and turned to other aspects.
