Chapter Seventy-One: Throwing Stones and Asking for Directions
Xue's mood swings were too big after giving birth, and she cried and fainted a few times, and Mrs. Gu was afraid that she would not be able to survive, so she specially arranged a few experienced daughters-in-law to help watch day and night. It's just that Xue Shi was too stimulated, and he was often in a trance, crying and laughing from time to time, as if he was stunned.
Gu Shichang came twice, but every time the Xue family cried uncontrollably, and in the end, it was the Fang family who helped persuade him. I don't know if I felt ashamed of the other party, or if I was afraid of the Xue family's madness, Gu Shichang didn't go to visit the Xue family again, but just sent someone to send something.
When Fang came in, Xue was sitting on the edge of the bed with his hair disheveled, crying bitterly: "Child, child, my child!" My child was killed by her! O my child! ”
Fang gently stroked Xue's hair, "Okay, don't cry, it's okay, the child can be raised again when it's gone, the body is important." ”
She looked at the Fang clan with red eyes, "Sister Fang, only you are good to me, obviously I robbed the lord of his favor in the first place, you don't blame me." ”
Fang's smile faded a little, and his gaze looked elsewhere, "What do you say about grabbing or not, the master is a person, not a thing, who he wants to spoil is not something I can control." Suddenly, "Besides, in this family, you and I are the closest, if you raise a child, it will be the same as my child, how can I blame you." ”
Liu Xu's daughter-in-law gave Fang's a salute, "Aunt Fang is really kind-hearted, there have been many offends in the past, please forgive me." ”
Fang glanced at Liu Xu's daughter-in-law, "I'm just doing my friendship with my fellow villagers and the same love." I am not as favored as Sister Xue, and I selfishly think that my child is afraid that it will be difficult to have in this life, so I love Sister Xue's child as my own child, but unfortunately it is a child who has no chance. ”
repeatedly mentioned the child, and Xue's anger suddenly rose: "She is so ruthless! Why don't you even let go of a child, where did I provoke her? ”
Everyone was afraid that Xue's grief and anger would cross their backs, and they persuaded Xue to look away.
"Why is it so lively?" Just when everyone was in a hurry, Ran Ran walked in, and when she saw the eyes that came unexpectedly, Ran Ran tilted her head and smiled: "What, don't you welcome me?" ”
However, no one was in the mood to laugh with Ranran, as soon as Xue's mood came up, tears fell as soon as he said it: "Lady, you have to make the decision for me!" ”
The green tendons on the corners of Ranran's forehead twitched, and she felt that Xue's crying was a little funny, she was a child daughter-in-law who had not yet passed the door to go to her father-in-law's concubine to be the master, what kind of drama was this. Besides, at present, the biggest suspect is the Yao family, does the Xue family want her to do it against her serious mother-in-law?
Everyone shut up and didn't speak, not daring to pick up Xue's stubble, and their eyes secretly looked at Ranran.
"Grandmother ordered me to bring you something nourishing, and asked me to tell you to take good care of your body, and only when your body is healthy can you raise another child for your master." Ran Ran didn't do what everyone wanted, she pretended not to hear Xue's words, and handed the food box she brought to Cuihe.
Liu Xu's daughter-in-law saw Ran Ran give the steps, and hurriedly took over, "Auntie, look! The old lady has spoken, so you should get up and take your medicine quickly. ”
The Xue clan was about to speak, but the Fang clan relieved Ranran, "Sister Xue still listens to the old lady's words, and it is important to take care of your body." The others are the old lady and the old lady, and I think the old lady will definitely make the decision for you. ”
"Grandmother said that this matter will definitely be investigated and asked for an explanation for my aunt. The first priority is to take care of yourself. Ran Ran didn't give Xue another chance to speak, turned around and nodded at Fang Shi: "Aunt Fang, it's really not easy to see you." ”
Fang was a little surprised, "If the lady wants to find me, just send someone to say it." ”
Ran Ran shook her head and smiled harmlessly: "It's nothing, I just want to get to know each other, can I go to your house and sit down?" ”
This sentence sounded ordinary, but Fang Shi chuckled in his heart, and turned sideways and said, "Of course, the lady is here, please." ”
The Xue family and the Fang family lived in the same courtyard. It is said to be a small courtyard, but in fact it is just three rows of houses behind an arch. Bypassing the Zhaobi, the first row was the Xue family's house, the second row of houses was uninhabited, and the Fang family's house was the innermost.
To Ranran's surprise, with the Gu family's background, the guest rooms are so exquisitely furnished, as Gu Shichang's aunt, even if she is not favored by the Xue family, she should not live so shabby.
Fang explained: "I originally lived in the front row of houses, but then my aunt fell ill, and I chanted for her every day, for fear of disturbing Aunt Xue, so I asked my wife to move to the back. The house is shabby, which makes the lady laugh. ”
Ranran's nose moved, smelled a stream of sandalwood, smelled the incense, and saw a small Buddha shrine. "It turns out that Aunt Fang believes in Buddhism?"
Ran Ran walked towards the Buddha shrine, Fang Shi also hurriedly followed, seeing Ran Ran standing in front of the Buddha shrine, she took a step forward, blocking in front of Ran Ran, her eyebrows and eyes curved into a beautiful arc: "I can't say that I believe it, but I just have time to read the scriptures a few more times, praying for the safety of the whole family." The lady should go outside to drink tea, I'm afraid you can't get used to the smell. ”
Ran Ran's eyes did not move, she raised her eyelids slightly, and looked at Fang Shi with a smile, until she was so nervous that her eyes flickered frequently, and she suddenly smiled: "Aunt Fang still has a heart, I will learn from Aunt Fang in the future." ”
Fang Shi hurriedly waved his hand and replied nervously: "The lady has tormented me like this, you are the master, I am just an aunt, how can I talk about learning, what do you have to say." ”
"Aunt Fang is too modest. I heard that Aunt Fang is obedient and virtuous, filial piety and generosity, and she has always been curious, but it seems to be true today. Ran Ran turned around and walked away, and the Fang clan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed. Auntie don't be nervous, I'm just coming to visit. If I bother, I'll finish my tea and leave. ”
How dare the Fang clan agree, he immediately smiled and said: "The kind words that the lady said are that I am really humble here, and I am afraid that the hospitality will not be good." ”
"I'm not a big lady, I'm just lucky." Ran Ran grimaced, which made Fang Clan breathe a sigh of relief, but his gaze still wandered around. "I just saw that you have a good relationship with Aunt Xue."
Fang's smile and voice were just right, "Aunt Xue and I are fellow villagers, and it's rare to have fate and be sisters, so just move around more." ”
Ran Ran sighed faintly: "Aunt Xue is really lucky, it's a pity to have a sister like you." ”
The Fang clan didn't dare to bluff at will, "Yes, Aunt Xue's body is already weak, and she has lost two children, and now she hasn't saved this." ”
"Huh? Flowed two before? Ran Ran was stunned for a moment, she didn't mean to say the child, but she didn't expect Xue to have a miscarriage before.
Fang nodded and said: "It's all before the lady enters the door, although Aunt Xue is not in good health, but she is favored by the master, and she has had two children before, but they are all unlucky, and she has not survived the first three months." In the end, Fang's smile was a little bitter, and his eyes dimmed a lot.
She cautiously asked, "Aunt Fang also flowed?" ”
Fang suddenly came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly: "I, no, how can I have this life, it's difficult to even get pregnant." Probably because he was afraid that saying too much would arouse Ranran's suspicions, he said: "The lady cares about these things, you are still young now, and after twelve, the old lady will teach." ”
