Zhao Mudeng's eyes widened, as if she had something to say in her heart, but after a pause, she didn't say anything, and smiled awkwardly.

Zhao Mingcheng said to his mother: "When the teacher died, Mingcheng and his mother-in-law never expected it. A few days ago, the teacher was still smiling with us, and in the blink of an eye, it was already yin and yang. Mingcheng was very sad in his heart, so he stayed here, accompanied his mother here, and took care of his mother-in-law for a while. Mother, please also ask for your consent. ”

Mother Zhao didn't speak, Mother Li looked at Mother Zhao's appearance, and knew what she was thinking, so she sighed and said to Mingcheng: "Mingcheng, why are you so ignorant?" The old man is gone, and the old body is sad, but it has not yet reached the point where you can't take care of yourself, how can you think so? Do you want to go wherever you want? Your parents are at home and need your care! ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "The eldest brother and the second brother are better than Mingcheng to take care of people, and I am also free at home." ”

Li Qingzhao wanted to accompany his mother, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he just knelt in his mother's arms, stared at everyone blankly, and didn't speak.

Mother Li said: "Mingcheng, the old man's funeral has been completed, and the emperor has come to take a look in person." This is a great honor for the old body, and from now on, the old body will take care of itself. Go back to your house with your photos. ”

Zhao Mingcheng was about to shake his head, but saw his mother-in-law glaring at him.

Mother Li said: "Mingcheng, why is your child still like a child?" Your mother came to see the old man, and that's enough. My in-laws are thinking about me! ”

Mother Zhao hurriedly said: "The old body learned that his in-laws had passed away, and his heart was really uncomfortable. I can't believe it. After just a few days of not seeing each other, it became like this. The old man is even more sad, and the old body will come over today. First, the old man comforted his mother-in-law, and secondly, he also talked about the pain of the old body. ”

Mother Li chuckled and said, "My mother-in-law can have such a caring heart, and the old body is very comforted. Thank you in advance. ”

Mother Zhao sighed and said, "My mother is polite. I remember that when the emperor held a banquet last year, we toasted with the emperor together. At that time, the lord and his father-in-law were still laughing. I haven't forgotten that scene to this day. Who knows, in the blink of an eye, it will become like this. ”

Mother Li said: "Master, his health is not good. Years ago, I was always sick at home, and I didn't go to court too much. Who knows, he just gave up. ”

Speaking of which. Mother Li couldn't help it, and cried again. Li Qingzhao hurriedly comforted: "Mother must stop crying. It's not good to hurt your body like this. ”

Mother Li held back her tears, and then said, "Alas. Man is dying. His words are also good. Before the lord died, he talked about us. Hmph, this old man doesn't usually have much to say. ”

Mother Zhao said: "My father-in-law doesn't talk much on the surface, but in fact, he cares about you very much. ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "The teacher is familiar with the past and the present, and he is even more knowledgeable. This loving lady and daughter is naturally no different. It's a pity, why can't the teacher live a long life? ”

Looking around, Zhao Mingcheng sighed again: "The way the teacher taught us at the beginning. Mingcheng still remembers. ”

Mother Zhao said: "Master Li has devoted himself to teaching future generations, and the old body also knows it. But this ...... Hey hey ......"

Mother Zhao smiled awkwardly. Then he said: "This, things between their men are always inscrutable. People are still worried about official positions, no matter what, as long as they don't agree with each other. There is always a fight for the high. The old man once persuaded the master. As an official of the same dynasty, why fight for it? But the old man said that he was in the middle of the court, and he couldn't help himself. ”

Mother Li cried, but shook her head at this time and said, "No, the old body didn't mean to blame her father-in-law. How they are, that's their business. The old man has already driven the crane to the west, so there is no need to fight anymore. As mothers, we have to teach these children well. Now that Mingcheng has entered the official career, in the future, the two of them will be in your house, and they will need to be taken care of by their mother-in-law. ”

Mother Zhao said: "This is natural. ”

Mother Li nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Slowly lowered her head and looked at Qingzhao in her arms, Li Mu said to Qingzhao: "Qingzhao, you can go back today." ”

Li Qingzhao looked up at his mother, still reluctant to give up, but looked at his mother with a calm face. Li Qingzhao thought in his heart again: "Qingzhao and Xianggong have stayed here enough. If you don't go back, you can't say it. ”

But looking at my mother's appearance, I was really a little reluctant. After thinking about it again and again, Li Qingzhao decided to go. Finally looking at his mother and nodding, Li Qingzhao whispered to his mother: "Then mother should take care of herself, and when she is free, Qingzhao will come back to visit her mother." ”

Mother Li smiled happily: "This is naturally good." ”

Zhao's mother, Zhao Mingcheng, and Li Qingzhao talked to Li's mother for a while, and then slowly got up and walked out of the door of Li's house.

On the way back to Zhao's house slowly, it seemed that everything was long, although Li Qingzhao walked slowly, he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, he was still like a gossamer, and his heart was at home.

When he returned to the door of Zhao's house, Li Qingzhao suddenly felt a pain in his feet, and then he let out an "oops", and felt that his arm was grabbed, so he didn't fall.

After coming back from the fugue, Li Qingzhao saw Xiang Gong supporting him.

Zhao Mingcheng said to the lady: "The lady is slow." Watch your step. ”

Li Qingzhao didn't care about the pain in his feet, but nodded lightly and said, "Yes." ”

Back home, Li Qingzhao sat on the bed, his eyes staring at the empty place, and his heart had not yet returned.

Zhao Mingcheng looked at the lady like this, and knew in his heart that the lady was still immersed in the pain of losing her father, and her heart was uncomfortable, which was naturally understandable.

stretched out his hand, and Zhao Mingcheng was about to take the lady into his arms.

But his fingers moved slightly, and his hand stopped again, Zhao Mingcheng thought about it, forget it, don't bother the lady.

After a while, there was a sound at the door, and Zhao Mingcheng looked out and saw his father coming in, and then his mother also came in.

Zhao Mingcheng hurriedly said: "Daddy, are you here?" ”

Zhao Tingzhi nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Zhao Mingcheng hurriedly turned around to look at the lady, and saw that the lady was still thoughtful. didn't come back to his senses, so he went over and touched the lady's arm, and called softly, "Lady." Daddy is here. ”

Li Qingzhao came back to his senses and said, "What? ”

Zhao Tingzhi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Mingcheng, don't be surprised by Qingzhao." The old man just came to take a look. ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "Lady, she is still immersed in grief and difficult to wake up. ”

Li Qingzhao saw his father-in-law and mother-in-law at this time, and when he got up, he was about to salute.

Mother Zhao hurriedly stepped forward to support Qingzhao and said to Qingzhao: "Qingzhao, you are not feeling well now. You don't have to fall on your knees. ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "Qingzhao, sit down." ”

In his words, there was a little more kindness and gentleness. Zhao Tingzhi looked at Qingzhao and said softly to her: "You are not feeling well." Sit down. ”

Li Qing looked at his father-in-law's sincere appearance and sat down.

Zhao Mingcheng said: "Daddy, Mingcheng is really uncomfortable, so he stayed at his teacher's house for a long time. I hope my father will not blame him. ”

Zhao Tingzhi hurriedly said to Ming Cheng: "You should call Master Li your father-in-law." ”

Zhao Mingcheng nodded and said, "Yes." Yes, father-in-law. ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "Alas, the world is really impermanent. Why is Lao Li suddenly gone? ”

Li Qingzhao and Xianggong looked at each other and felt strange. Zhao Mingcheng thought in his heart, his father usually treats his teacher with hatred, why does he suddenly seem to treat his teacher as a brother today?

Li Qingzhao was also puzzled, and thought to himself: "My father and father-in-law have always been at odds, why is my father-in-law so close to my father now?" ”

Zhao Tingzhi looked at Mingcheng and Qingzhao. I also guessed what they meant, so I smiled lightly. The two of them said: "Why, do you think what the old man said just now is strange? ”

Zhao Mingcheng hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's not strange, it's not strange." ”

Zhao Tingzhi waved his hand and smiled: "Your doubts are written on your faces, why aren't you strange?" ”

Zhao Mingcheng and the lady looked at each other, and they were all ashamed.

Zhao Tingzhi then sat down slowly and said to his wife: "Madam, you also sit down." ”

Mother Zhao said "hey", and then sat down next to Qingzhao, still comforting Qingzhao and said, "It's okay." ”

Li Qingzhao looked at her mother-in-law and sobbed.

Zhao Tingzhi sighed and said: "Alas, although the old man and Master Li have a dispute with each other, they are also people who serve the king together. Why can he say that he will move the emperor and embarrass the old man? ”

Li Qingzhao and Xianggong looked at each other again, their faces gloomy, but they both knew that when their father spoke like this, he must have something to say.

Zhao Tingzhi shook his head from side to side, then snorted softly, smiled to himself, and said, "Oh, but the old man didn't embarrass him a little." Hmph, fighting back and forth, but Lao Li was lost. ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "Is my father also sad about my father-in-law's departure? ”

Zhao Tingzhi nodded and said embarrassedly: "Qingzhao may not believe it, as soon as the old man heard that Master Li had left, he didn't believe it at first." It wasn't until the old man really affirmed that Master Li left, and the old man believed it. ”

Li Qingzhao hurriedly said: "Qingzhao believes in his father-in-law's words. ”

Zhao Tingzhi nodded and said, "Well, that's good, that's good." In fact, the old man didn't have any prejudice against Master Li, and hatred couldn't be talked about. If there is really hatred, how can the old man let you become a husband and wife? ”

Turning his face to look out of the door, Zhao Tingzhi's face was full of vicissitudes, and then he turned his head again, looked at the three of them, and said to the three of them: "Actually, the old man just can't help himself." On the side of the Changers, how can you not attack them?

Hmph, in fact, the old man also has his own selfishness! Every time the old man attacked Master Li, he was very happy first. But what about then? squeezed Master Li away, but the old man had an indescribable sense of emptiness. I don't know what's going on, sometimes I miss him, hum, it's really cheap. ”

Mother Zhao said: "Then you have run on others many times." ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "Where can the old man not do that? I am the prime minister, and I want to advocate changing the law. He Li Gefei is against me, what can I do? ”

Originally, I was thinking about arguing with my wife, but after thinking about it again, Zhao Tingzhi stopped again, and then sighed again: "Alas, what's the use of talking about that now?" People are gone. The old man still misses the time when he had Master Li. The two of us had an argument, and it was a good day. ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "My father has always refused to accept my teacher, but now that my teacher is gone, my father is not happy." ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "Well, yes. Why do you say? I can't tell. Alas......"

Zhao Tingzhi sighed again, and then said, "What's wrong with the old man?" ”

Mother Zhao said: "Then master, are you still wary of Master Li?" ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "Yes, and no." Master Li and the old man are also fellow villagers. The old man and Master Li have been arguing in front of the emperor for a lifetime. Now it's finally stopped. ”

Mother Zhao nodded and said, "No wonder when the master believed that Master Li had gone, he actually shed tears." ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "How did the old man know that Master Li actually left so soon?" It's really impermanent. Now that there is no Master Li, who is the old man still fighting with? Hmph, it's useless to fight back and forth. The old man stopped. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Tingzhi slowly raised his head, looked up, slowly closed his eyes, took another deep breath, then lowered his head again, blinked his eyes, and said to them: "The old man hated Lord Li before, but now he misses Master Li a little. Alas, I regret it, I regret that I didn't have a good word with him before he died. What is the picture of a person's life? ”

Li Qing looked at his father-in-law's serious appearance, and knew in his heart that his father-in-law was sincere. Li Qingzhao thought happily in his heart: "My father-in-law has good intentions towards my father. ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "Qingzhao, after Lord Li died, the old man couldn't go to see it, and it was really the old man's regret." But you have to understand that the old man, as a new-school person, can't go. ”

Li Qingzhao nodded and said, "What my father-in-law said, it is clear and white. ”

Zhao Tingzhi nodded and said, "Okay, it's good if you understand." Alas, how can this man say that he is gone? Hmph, it's good now, one of the old man's opponents is gone, and I'm not interesting in the court anymore. The old man really regrets it, when Master Li was reprimanded and returned to Qingzhou, why did I have to fall into the ground? also fabricated a letter of resignation and gave Qingzhao a resignation. Now that I think about it, it really wasn't right. ”

Suddenly turning around, Zhao Tingzhi said to Qingzhao: "Qingzhao, can you forgive the old man?" ”

Li Qingzhao looked at his father-in-law's sincere appearance, and was naturally moved by it, so he looked at his father-in-law, shook his head and said, "Qingzhao has never blamed his father-in-law. No matter what happened in the past, Qingzhao is still with Xianggong now! Qingzhao is already satisfied. ”

Zhao Tingzhi nodded and said, "Well, good, good daughter-in-law." You don't blame the old man, the old man is satisfied. Say anything now, Master Li is gone. Qingzhao's family lost their support. From now on, the old man will look at Qingzhao differently, Mingcheng will treat you as a baby, and our whole family will treat you as a baby. Qingzhao, you don't have to be afraid, your father is gone, and your father-in-law, your father-in-law, and your brother and sister-in-law. Our family treats you like a baby. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Tingzhi burst into tears.

Mother Zhao looked at it and sighed in her heart: "When people are here, you fight with others." When the family is gone, you start to regret it again. What are you trying to do, sir? ”

Zhao Tingzhi said: "Forget it, things have become like this now." If you are clear, you will mourn. The old man came here today just to come to see you and comfort you. ”

Li Qingzhao said: "My father-in-law is thinking about Qingzhao, and Qingzhao is in my heart. ”

Mother Zhao said: "Forget it, let the children stay at home for a while, let's go out." (To be continued.) )
