Chapter 458: It's Late at Night

Zhao's mother was actually at the door, but she heard that Qingzhao and her mother were talking, so she was embarrassed to disturb. Who knows that his son Mingcheng is also here, and he has a good conversation with the mother and daughter.

Hearing Mingcheng's words, Zhao's mother naturally knew that Mingcheng's words came from her heart, and secretly thought: "Mingcheng, this child, is quite filial to her mother-in-law. But why hasn't he been so filial to his old body? ”

There was still a slight imbalance in her heart, and Mother Zhao slowly entered the door.

Mother Li saw Mother Zhao, and the two said a few polite words.

Zhao Mingcheng said to his mother: "Mother, mother-in-law, she seems to still have something uncomfortable, why don't we find a doctor to come in?" ”

Mother Zhao held back a smile and said to Ming Cheng: "Didn't you take the initiative to find a doctor?" Why ask me? ”

Zhao Mingcheng touched his head, and then smiled: "Am I not panicking?" But now that my mother is here, Mingcheng can't help but ask! ”

Mother Zhao smiled: "What a filial child." ”

Mother Li looked left and right, and secretly felt that something was wrong, so she waved her hand and said, "Forget it, there is nothing wrong with the old body, so you don't need to call a doctor." ”

When Mother Zhao and Ming Cheng spoke, their faces were straight, and then they turned their heads to look at Mrs. Li, and suddenly changed their faces again, and came over with a smile and said, "Where can this work?" If you have any discomfort in your body, just say quickly, if you sleep in the open on the way, if there is a little problem because of this, you will have to live with illness in the future. ”

Mother Li heard Mrs. Zhao's sincere words, and said a word. All revealed their true feelings, and they were immediately moved, nodded and said, "Mrs. Zhao is right." ”

Mother Zhao sat down beside Mrs. Li. Said to Mrs. Li: "What, do you still have a fever in your head?" ”

Li Qingzhao said on the side: "I don't have a fever, my mother's complexion has improved a lot today!" ”

Mother Zhao smiled and said, "That's good." When I heard that Mrs. Li was infected with a cold, I was surprised for a long time. It's enough for our family to be demoted, and if my mother is sick again, it's really a bad thing. OK. My mother-in-law has nothing to do, and I, the old woman, am much more relieved. ”

Mother Li said with a smile: "I am grateful to Mrs. Zhao for her care, and I am very touched by the fact that I am a person who is in the last years of my life." Thank you very much. It's hard to put into words. ”

Zhao's mother said: "It doesn't matter, why is my mother so polite?" Where else do you feel uncomfortable? ”

Mother Li suddenly got up and sat up, swayed and said, "I'm fine, you see." I'm so energetic. ”

Mother Zhao reached out to support Mother Li's shoulder. and Li Mu said: "Don't be like this, what are you doing here?" ”

Li Qingzhao was also busy covering his mother with the quilt again, and said softly to his mother: "Mother don't catch a cold." ”

Zhao's mother said: "Okay, Qingzhao is a filial child and a filial daughter-in-law. The old man is very happy to have this daughter-in-law. ”

Mother Li said: "Mingcheng, this child is talented and intelligent, and he is also a rare good material." ”

Mother Zhao shook her head and said, "What kind of good material can he be, he is just a scholar who reads." Nothing useful. ”

Zhao Mingcheng said with a straight face: "Mother's words are not right, I am born to be useful." Mingcheng thinks I'm of great use! ”

Mother Zhao turned her head and smiled at Ming Cheng, and then said, "Okay, your use is very good, you better go and grab some medicine and come back first." Mrs. Li also needs to recuperate. ”

Zhao Mingcheng nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Then he turned and jumped away.

Li Qingzhao said: "I'd better go." ”

Mother Zhao stretched out her hand to stop and said, "No, let him go, you just stay in this house." ”

Li Qing looked at the back of his father-in-law going out, and a smile crossed the corner of his mouth.

Mother Zhao said: "Yes, Mingcheng is a good child, but ah, he didn't put his mind on business, he only thought about crooked ways, and he didn't have any seriousness." ”

Mother Li smiled, but stopped talking.

Mother Zhao said: "I, I'm bored in that room alone, so I came over to talk to you." ”

Mother Li said: "It is also my honor to be able to talk to my mother-in-law for a few words. ”

Mother Zhao laughed on her back, and said, "What are you talking about, the two of us are talking and chatting, it's just two old people chatting together, don't be so polite." ”

Mother Li looked at Mrs. Zhao's complexion, and saw that she was as kind as ever, and there was no color change, presumably Mrs. Zhao was really talking to herself, so she was relieved, and smiled with Mrs. Zhao: "Yes, Mrs. Zhao said yes." ”

Mother Zhao smiled: "You and I are both elderly people, and we are not shy about saying that we are both people who have lost our husbands." In the loneliness of widowhood, you and I have a place. As soon as this person gets older, he feels very lonely, doesn't he? ”

Mother Li smiled: "Yes." ”

Mother Zhao snorted and laughed twice, and then said: "Yes, you and I are both elderly people, so in some places, the two of us still have something to say, I, I can't talk to them." ”

Mother Li said: "When people reach our age, they don't think about anything, and since they don't think about anything, there's no point in doing anything." ”

Mother Zhao stretched out her finger and replied to Mrs. Li, "Yes, you are right." The old body thinks the same way, since I lost my master, this person feels like half the sky has fallen. Oh no, it's the whole sky that's falling. At that time, my mind was in a mess, and I really didn't know what I should do. How can I manage this big family as a woman? ”

Mother Li said: "Yes, Mrs. Zhao has raised three sons, which is very difficult. ”

Zhao's mother said: "Who said it wasn't, fortunately, the eldest and the second are both sensible children, and I can't work so hard." At that time, after the three of them were released by the emperor, I was busy finding work for them. The eldest and second are okay to say, and they are back in their official positions. It's this third child, what can I say about him! Oil and salt do not enter. I really can't help him. ”

Turning her head, Zhao Mu said to Qingzhao: "Qingzhao, what do you say?" Mingcheng, is he bent on going his own way? ”

Li Qingzhao said shyly: "Xianggong, he is quite like that, but Qingzhao thinks that Xianggong can have such arrogance, presumably he really has his own ideas, and Qingzhao is difficult to influence Xianggong's thoughts." ”

Mother Li said: "Well, yes, Mingcheng's child is good anywhere." Filial piety, kindness, and truthfulness. I can entrust him with the clear light. It's really reassuring. ”

Mother Zhao said: "Okay, if you say so, I have the cheekiness to agree." I don't deny that he can do this, but he is ignorant of the world. I can't make sense of it. Hum. Say he's stubborn? He also doesn't have the demeanor of a general. Said he ...... I had to say that he didn't eat oil and salt. What's the use? In the future, Qingzhao will still point to him to live, and he can't just eat and drink with a real character, right? Since ancient times, scholars have been based on gaining fame and fame in the examination, and then winning official positions, and then glorifying their ancestors. Mingcheng is good, he is familiar with classic poetry books, why can't I see what he wants to do? ”

Li Qingzhao said: "Xianggong, he doesn't hate being an official, he is afraid of saying bad things to others." There are the most words around the official, whether it is good or evil. Whether it's true or not, whether it's good or bad. It's all human thinking! He wouldn't be like that. He once told Qingzhao that when his father-in-law was alive, he could still rely on his father-in-law's prestige to go back and forth in the officialdom. Now that the father-in-law has passed away, the father-in-law has no support, so he has no courage to be an official. It's not that Xianggong hates being an official, it's that he is afraid of being an official. ”

When Mother Zhao heard this, she nodded and said, "I see, I said, this kid is unwilling to return to his official position, what is going on." Alas, what is there that a big man must not go through? Like him, if he retreats when something happens, what can he do? ”

Mother Li smiled and said: "It's okay, everything has a first time, and when Mingcheng becomes an official again in the future, he will be natural." ”

Mother Zhao said: "I hope so. Mrs. Li, don't talk about him, I get angry when I mention him, let's talk about us. When people get older, they don't want to do anything, I don't have a husband, you don't have a husband, the two of us are people with the same experience, do you say? ”

Mother Li said: "Yes, of course it is." ”

Mother Zhao said: "That's right, I'm very lonely now, so I want to find someone to talk to!" Now this is expelled back to his hometown, although we have been belittled by the emperor and have lost our status in the capital, but it is also a good thing, the capital is now very chaotic, you and I just avoid the limelight. Besides, we two lonely people can talk to each other, can't we? ”

Mother Li said: "Yes, I am at home, Nuoda's house, it is empty, and it is not interesting. I'm tired of it, too. ”

Mother Zhao said: "Yes, just right, let's talk." ”

Mother Li said: "Yes, we two elderly people have gotten together. ”

Zhao's mother said: "All the way, the sky is high and the road is far away, and it will take a while to return to my hometown." I was so tired from the bumps in the carriage all day. We'll stay here for a few days to rest. ”

Mother Li said: "What, don't you leave immediately?" ”

Mother Zhao waved her hand and said, "Why are you in a hurry?" This is to go back to my hometown, not to catch the market, there is no panic. Besides, Mrs. Li, you are not feeling well, and you should recuperate from your injuries. ”

Mother Li said: "I'm fine, I can't burden everyone because I am alone." ”

Mother Zhao said: "Here it is again, what is the burden, you and I are both down-and-out people, who said who is involved." It's okay, you and I will stay here for a few days, and when you are completely well, we will leave. Otherwise, if you walk in a hurry, if you catch the wind chill again on the road, and there is no one in front of you, it will not be good. I'm shivering on the road! ”

As she spoke, Zhao's mother retracted her arms and trembled all over, as if she was really afraid of the cold.

Mother Zhao's appearance made Mother Li and Li Qingzhao smile at each other.

At this moment, Zhao Mingcheng ran in from outside the door in a panic and said, "The medicine is here, the medicine is here." ”

Mother Zhao said: "What are you panicking about? Go and decoction, don't stay here. ”

Li Qingzhao got up and said, "Let me go." ”

Mother Zhao said: "Don't, just let him go." ”

Zhao Mingcheng said to the lady: "I have nothing to do with it, I'll go." ”

Li Qingzhao took out a handkerchief and gently wiped it on Xiang Gong's forehead, and said to Xiang Gong: "You have walked so much, how can you say that it doesn't matter?" ”

Mother Li said: "Okay, the two of you can go together." ”

Li Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng both nodded, which was exactly what they wanted.

After the day, it was already evening, and the sky was getting dark, Li Qingzhao and Xianggong went to find the doctor and Li's mother to take a look at their bodies, and the doctor said that Li's mother's body was no longer in trouble, and the two were completely relieved.

It was already night, Li Qingzhao was sitting next to his mother, and said to his mother: "Mother will rest for another night, and she must be in good health." ”

Mother Li said: "Get better quickly, so that we don't drag others down." ”

Mother Zhao suddenly came in and said, "How can you say it's a drag?" ”

Mother Li saw Mother Zhao and said with a smile: "Mrs. Zhao is here, sit down and talk." ”

Mother Zhao said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Mrs. Li's face has improved a lot." Not bad, not bad, the body is recovering well. ”

Mother Li said: "I think it will be fine tomorrow." How is Mrs. Zhao's rest? ”

Zhao's mother said: "I rested well, I slept all afternoon, and the whole person was in good spirits." I'm bored again, and I'm here to talk to you. ”

Mother Li said: "That's good, let's leave tomorrow, right?" ”

Mother Zhao said: "Do you want to leave tomorrow?" Is your body okay? ”

Mother Li said: "My body has been healed a long time ago, and now I am raising it here." ”

Zhao Mingcheng suddenly came in and said, "It's so nice outside." ”

Li Qingzhao said: "What's good outside? ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "It's raining outside, it's really fun." ”

Li Qingzhao said: "What? Is it raining again? ”

Mother Zhao said: "It's raining again, it's cold outside, you can't go." ”

Mother Li sighed anxiously.

Mother Zhao smiled: "Why is Mrs. Li sighing? It didn't matter, we stayed a few more days. ”

Li Qingzhao got up and walked outward, and when he came to the door of the inn, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body, his hands held each other, and he suddenly felt that there was someone behind him. As soon as he turned his head, he was hugged by Xianggong.

Zhao Mingcheng and the lady said with a smile: "Lady, is this weather good?" Is it beautiful on the outside? ”

Li Qingzhao said coquettishly: "What do you say? ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "Lady, look, outside the door in the wind and rain, those mountains, rivers and trees, how beautiful!" ”

Li Qingzhao said: "What? ”

Zhao Mingcheng said: "Look over there." ”

Li Qingzhao carefully looked in the direction pointed by Xiang Gong, but saw nothing. Where can I see what clearly at night?

Zhao Mingcheng asked, "Lady, have you seen anything?" ”

Li Qingzhao shook his head and said, "It's dark, I can't see anything clearly." (To be continued.) )
