Chapter 371: Departure
On the thirteenth day of the lunar month, Qian Yixiu sat on the kang and read the account book, and the three guards stood next to Liang Sisi's small bed, and someone came to report that the Qian family had come. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It's Mother Song by Pan Yue's side. Her expression was grim, and she bent her knees for Qian Yixiu and said, "Auntie, our grandmother invites you to go back, the old lady is not good." ”
Qian Yixiu was startled, "What's the matter?" Didn't you say a few days ago that my grandmother's body bones are better again? ”
Mother Song said, "Hey, yes, because ......" She stopped talking, blushed and said, "Aunt and grandma will know when they go back." ”
It seems that there are reasons why it is difficult to say.
Qian Yixiu hurriedly got off the kang and put on a purple fox fur cloak.
When Brother Cheng and Brother Xin saw that their mother was going out, they both ran over and hugged her legs and shouted, "Go out to play, go out to play." ”
Qian Yixiu squatted down and coaxed them, "My mother is not going out to play, my mother has something to do." You followed your mother, what should my sister do? Let Monkey Panpan be alone with her? ”
As soon as the monkey pan pan monkey spirit heard this, he ran to the door and stood first, staring at the little brother with two round eyes, full of threat.
Qian Yixiu pointed to the monkey Panpan and said, "Look, if you all go out to play, it will be the only one left, and it will not accompany it, so only let my sister be alone in the house." ”
The little brothers looked back at their sleeping sister, even if they were asleep, the corners of their mouths were smiling, and they had to let go of their mother's legs in frustration.
Brother Xin was also very reluctant to say, "Mother, come back quickly, Xinxin thinks." ”
Qian Yixiu nodded, and each little guy kissed it, and then went out of the east side room.
There was still heavy snow outside, and the cold wind was howling. As soon as I lifted the thick curtain of the upper room, a cold wind swept the snowflakes in.
Qian Yixiu tightened his cloak and hurriedly walked towards the main courtyard.
Cui Shi is sitting on the kang with Aunt Lian, Aunt Qin, and Aunt Xi playing leaf cards. The common man was not at home, and several women were unusually harmonious.
Sister Li rode a walker sent by Qian Yixiu and scurried on the ground. Although she is only a month younger than the little brothers, her development is far behind, and she still can't walk, and she can only speak a single sound.
Qian Yixiu took leave with Cui's family, and hurriedly took a carriage to Qian's house.
The old lady is already seventy-three years old, and the weather is not good. Qian Yixiu's heart was sour, and tears couldn't stop flowing.
Although she has traveled over so many years, she is not very close to Mrs. Qian, and she doesn't like the old lady's patriarchy, and she has a lot of complaints about the old lady who often bullied the little lady in the past.
However, she still hopes that the old lady can live a long and healthy life and enjoy two more years of happiness. When the third room of the Qian family was in difficulty in the past, the old lady often saved a mouthful from her mouth, and secretly sent food and a lot of money to the third room, which was met with a lot of eyes from the Wang family. Although it was mainly for Zhu Sujin and Sangui's grandfather, it also helped Sanfang through many difficult years.
Qian Yixiu went directly to Fuxi Hall, where the old lady lived. Grandpa Sangui, Aunt Manxia, and Qian Manting are all in the hall, and their eyes are all red.
She stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with my grandmother?" ”
Qian Manxia was just about to speak, and Qian Manjiang accompanied an imperial doctor out of the bedroom. The imperial doctor said, "The old lady is already weak, and she is very angry, I'm afraid it's not good, so you can prepare for the future." ”
When everyone heard this, they all started crying, except for Daddy Jiang who sent the imperial doctor out, everyone else poured into the bedroom.
The bedroom was hot and stuffy, with a strong smell of medicine and the smell of fart and urine. Wu's grandmother and the little lady stood by the bed with red eyes, the old lady was pale, her eyes were closed, and she was still shouting something vaguely in her mouth.
Wu cried, "The imperial doctor said that the old lady can always stand up because of this thought. Let us fulfill the old lady's wishes, so that she can go without worry. ”
Qian Sangui cried, "The old lady wants to see the prince." But the prince went to Liaocheng for disaster relief, and he didn't know when he would be back. ”
The girl came in with a medicine bowl, and several women from the Wu family went over to help the old lady up and help her feed the medicine. A small half of the medicine was fed in, and more than half flowed out of the corners of his mouth.
Qian Yixiu pulled Pan Yue to the side room and asked in a low voice, "Mother, why did my grandmother suddenly become seriously ill, and what did the imperial doctor say about being so angry?" ”
Pan Yue said angrily, "It's not that you're too angry. That old man is really-badly. ”
This word was the most intense word Pan Yue could use. After speaking, he stopped his mouth, and his face was red with anger.
Qian Yixiu was taken aback and asked, "What did my grandfather do?" Seeing that Pan Yue's desire stopped again, Qian Yixiu was anxious and said, "Oh, my mother is in a hurry." ”
Pan Yue sighed before she said the reason. It turned out that Old Man Qian had found a good match outside, a widow in her thirties, and it had been more than a year. The day before yesterday, the old man Qian came back and confessed, saying that he wanted to take the widow into the house, because the widow was pregnant. The old man is proud, he is over seventy years old, and he is still majestic. also said that he really didn't like to let that woman into the house, so he asked Qian Manjiang to pay for it to help buy a big house outside and settle his old son.
When Mrs. Qian heard this, she fainted with anger, and she didn't wake up when she pinched people. When the old man saw that he had the old lady to death, he was afraid. Because he also knew that in this family, the old lady was Mrs. Hou of the Imperial Seal, and he was just a white ding. Moreover, he is also very self-aware, knowing that the whole family treats the old lady much better than all of them. He knew he had caused a catastrophe, and he scared away.
While serving the old lady, the Qian family sent someone to find the old man.
When I found the widow's house, I found the widow at home with whom she was kind. It turned out that the widow had calculated that the old man would not go to her that day, so she called her good friend. When interrogated, her child was also that good.
After looking for a day and a night, he didn't find the old man, and when he was in a hurry, Qian Manduo sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that the old man was scared and hid at her house.
Qian Yixiu gritted his teeth angrily, dead old man, he is still learning from others when he is so old. said, "What about following my grandfather's long entourage?" Are they dead? ”
Pan Yue said, "The old man's original entourage was transferred elsewhere for some reason. Last year, your lord saw that the old man was more honest over the years, and he didn't go out to look for trouble, so he agreed that he chose a long-term follower by himself. That Changsui is still a half-sized child, and he was bought by your grandfather for a few taels of silver, not only helping him hide it, but also often helping him ventilate and report the news. ”
Qian Yixiu was speechless and choked.
She stayed at Qian's house until the evening before returning to the Liang Mansion.
Caiyue waited for her at the second gate and said, "Sister cried soon after you left, and no one can coax her." When the two brothers saw their sister crying, they were also uncomfortable, and they cried together. Somehow, the old ancestor found out and asked people to take them to Wanshoutang. ”
Qian Yixiu was very helpless, these children were all brought by her, so she was very sticky to her.
As soon as I walked into the hanging flower door of Wanshoutang, I heard a cry in the upper room, mainly from Brother Cheng and Brother Xin. She ran in quickly, and saw Sisi, who was crying with a red face, being hugged by Cui's family, the eldest lady holding Brother Cheng'er, and Xia's holding Brother Xin'er, and the two little guys crying and shouting "sister, mother".
Not to mention that Cui's face is crossed, even the faces of the old ancestor and the eldest lady are not good-looking.
Cui Shi first said, "Daughter-in-law Zhao, we didn't stop you from being filial, but you are also the mother of several children. ”
Qian Yixiu blushed and took Sister Si'er into her arms and went to another side room to breastfeed the child. As soon as the little one ate his mother's milk, he immediately stopped crying. Brother Cheng and Brother Xin also ran in, one holding one of their mother's legs.
When Qian Yixiu led a few children back to the hall again, the ancestors had already heard Zizhu talk about the Qian family. The old ancestor didn't blame Qian Yixiu anymore, and asked her to take the child back to the Lotus Fragrance Courtyard.
Qian Yixiu didn't want to go back to Qian's house often, so she only soaked a stick of ginseng in Biquan water and asked people to send it to the old lady to eat, hoping that she could hold on until Zhu Sujin returned to Beijing.
The old lady persisted for ten days, and on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, Zhu Sujin returned from Liaocheng. As soon as he heard that the old lady was no longer good, he kept standing because he thought of him. He was so shocked that he didn't even change his clothes, so he hurried to Qian's house.
At this time, Mrs. Qian was already so thin that she was out of shape, her face was sallow, and her cheeks were deeply sunken.
Zhu Sujin half knelt beside the bed, took her hand and cried, "Grandma, I'm Jinwa, I'm your Jinwa, open your eyes and look at me." ”
The old lady, who rarely woke up once a day, finally opened her eyes, her cloudy gaze slipped on Zhu Sujin, and she looked at him stunned for a while before she said vaguely, "Jinwa, it's really my Jinwa." As he spoke, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
Zhu Sujin cried, "It's me, Taima, Jinwa has come to see you." ”
The old lady tugged at the corners of her mouth, stretched out her hand again, and said, "Oh, it's really Jinwa who came to see me." They are bad and say that you are not my own great-grandchild. But I know that you are my great-grandchild. Jinwa, you are a good child, and your grandmother enjoys your blessings. ”
Zhu Sujin clenched the old lady's dry hand, nodded and said, "Yes, I am your great-grandson, my grandmother will live well, and I will be able to enjoy the great blessings of Jinwa in the future." ”
The old lady grinned, looked at the back of Zhu Sujin, and became nothing, but her voice was much louder, and her words were very clear, and she said with a smile, "Jinwa, the grandmother left you a few pieces of meat, it's not good to bring them, hurry, follow me to the compound to eat." Shhhh......h
Then, slowly close your eyes.
"Too much, too much." Zhu Sujin crawled on Mrs. Qian's body and cried.
Qian Sangui and the others were waiting in the east side of the room, and when they heard Zhu Sujin's loud cry, they all cried and hugged in.
The old lady died at the age of seventy-three.
When the old lady died, Qian Yixiu was not in front of her, and when she heard that the Qian family came to report the funeral, she quickly changed into plain clothes and went to the Qian family.
Zhu Sujin had a very good relationship with the old lady, and he couldn't cry so much that he almost fainted. After calming down a little, he went back to the palace to ask Emperor Qianwu to guard the old lady's spirit.
Emperor Qianwu was very happy this time, not only made an exception to let Zhu Sujin wear plain clothes, but also asked him to go to the Qian family to keep a vigil for three days. He also asked the three little county lords to wear plain clothes, and Huang Liangdi led them to the Qian family to pay respects.
After that, Emperor Qianwu even came to the Qian family and put three incense sticks on the old lady.
The Qian family is now a high-ranking family in the capital, and the emperor and the prince have given such favors, so there are even more people who go to pay tribute to Mrs. Qian.
Three days later, Qian Sangui, Wu Shi, Qian Manjiang, Qian Yishan, Qian Yiming, and Li Zhandong, who served as an eight-rank official in the household department, all had to carry the coffin back to Huaxi Village. The old lady wants to return to the roots and bury the big grave bag where Xijing Mountain and Xishi Mountain intersect.
They were accompanied by an animal house. They are going to send the mountains and white wolves home, and then take the monkey Panpan, Tuan Tuan, and Yuanyuan to see the place where their ancestors grew up.
In fact, Pan Yue, Qian Yixiu and Zhu Sujin all wanted to follow back to Huaxi Village, but they couldn't make the trip for various reasons. The crown prince can't go out of Beijing casually, and the crown princess is about to give birth again. Qian Yixiu's children are still young, especially Sisi is less than three months old, so she can't take her children with her, and she can't leave her children alone. Pan Yue is because she has to stay in the capital to take care of her family.
The mountain and the white wolf are already very old, and they have a lot of geriatric diseases, and this time they must go back with them, maybe they also want to return to their roots.
When Qian Yixiu said goodbye to it, Dashan stretched out his tongue and licked Qian Yixiu, and Qian Yixiu also kissed it and hugged the white wolf. This is the first time Qian Yixiu has hugged a white wolf for so many years, and it is also the last time. She knew that this separation was goodbye.
And when Dashan said goodbye to Zhu Sujin, he cried. Zhu Sujin also guessed that this was a farewell, hugged it and shed tears, and said, "Dashan, I will always remember you and remember the good times we had together." ”
When Dashan heard this, he sobbed.
Qian Manjiang is a grandson, and he can stay in the system for three months, and he will be able to return to Beijing in a few months, and he will come back with the animal house. And Qian Sangui and Wu are sons and daughters-in-law, and they must be kept by Mrs. Qian for three years, that is, they can return to the capital after three years.
Thinking that it would take so long to see them, Qian Yixiu was very reluctant, and then the third noble grandfather's sleeve burst into tears, "Master, when the children are older, I will take time to go to Huaxi Village to see you." ”
Qian Sangui said, "You are someone's daughter-in-law, don't always think about going back to your parents' house." Seeing that the granddaughter pouted, she added, "You must come back, and you can't dislike the elders." It's best to bring all your great-grandchildren with you, I miss you. ”
Qian Yixiu nodded.
This time, Old Man Qian is also going back to his hometown. The old lady was angry to death, and learned that her good friend had another good friend, and she was still pregnant with someone else's child, and the seventy-four-year-old old man Qian also withered. He no longer picked himself up as smooth as before, and suddenly he was much older, and his spirit was very bad.
Maybe it's the discovery of conscience, or maybe it's the lack of spirit. The old man proposed to go back with the old lady, and in the future, he lived in Huaxi Village and lived with the eldest family, and did not come back.
Qian Yixiu, Qian Manxia, Qian Manduo, and Qian Manting were angry with the old lady to death, but thinking that this parting might not be seen in the future, they still cried and kowtowed to him.
