Chapter 53: Wake Up
Xie Roujia was dragged by Shao Mingqing to the outer courtyard.
"You said that the fifth uncle committed suicide by swallowing sand?" Xie Roujia said urgently.
Shao Mingqing nodded.
"I couldn't enter the inner courtyard at that time, I was wandering around, and I happened to see the fifth master being carried out, and I didn't worry about seeing his appearance, so I followed, and sure enough, he swallowed a handful of cinnabar while people were unprepared." He said.
This kind of thing happened to the old lady, if she really died, not only the old lady died, then the Du family was also finished, the fifth uncle wanted to save Miss Jiaona from the trap, but he didn't expect it to be such a result, and it was very likely that he couldn't think of apologizing with death for a while.
Xie Roujia sped up and ran forward, replaced by Shao Mingqing being pulled by her.
"Don't worry, it's back, it's okay to be short." Shao Mingqing hurriedly said, "I don't dare to leave an inch, just now I heard the old lady shouting outside, and shouted that it was okay, so I came out to find you in doubt, and I asked my little maid to guard it personally." ”
As they spoke, the two had already rushed into Xie Wenjun's courtyard.
In the room, Xie Wenjun was lying on the bed with a blank face, and he didn't have the slightest reaction to Xie Roujia coming in.
"Fifth uncle, the old lady is fine." Xie Roujia said.
"You don't have to lie to me." Xie Wenjun said and turned his head inward.
"No, I didn't lie to you." Xie Roujia said with a smile.
Shao Mingqing stepped forward and said a word in Xie Wenjun's ear, Xie Wenjun's face was instantly shocked, and he sat up suddenly.
"You!" He looked at Xie Roujia and glared, "Are you ......"
Shao Mingqing coughed lightly and reminded.
Xie Wenjun's words stopped at the edge of his mouth.
Xie Roujia looked at him and smiled.
"Yes, it's me." She said, "Fifth uncle, I won't lie to you, my grandmother is really fine, I made Dada, Du Wangshu was invited by me, and it was I who made my grandmother vomit blood, and I was the one who heard the doctor say that my grandmother was fine." ”
Xie Wenjun nodded, and his eyes were red.
"Good, good, good." He said, his eyes were a little refreshed, but his expression was still a little depressed, "But it was I who made the eldest aunt suffer this crime." ”
"No, it's not." Xie Roujia's eyes widened and said, "Fifth uncle, you are the great benefactor of your grandmother and the Du family." ”
Great benefactor?
Sending the Du family to the prison cell and putting Mrs. Xie's life in danger, what kind of benefactor is this?
Xie Wenjun smiled bitterly, the words of the child's coaxing are really ridiculous.
"No, I didn't coax you." Xie Roujia said, "Fifth uncle, the old lady and the grandfather of the Du family have made it clear. ”
What does it mean to be clear?
Xie Wenjun looked at her.
Xie Roujia told the story of the time, and Xie Wenjun and Shao Mingqing sighed.
"I see." Xie Wenjun sighed, "It's really..."
I don't know if it's pitiful or hateful.
"But it's still pitiful or hateful, and I finally relieved my grandmother's lifelong obsession." Xie Roujia said, "Although the body has suffered, but the person is like a new life, my grandmother has been sad for decades, and the rest of the days can be happy, in this way, it is indeed a good thing, this is the credit of the fifth uncle." ”
Xie Wenjun nodded and smiled bitterly.
"Moreover, I see that Grandpa Du also wants to let go, and there is hope for the relationship between you and Miss Nana, fifth uncle." Xie Roujia said with a smile.
Xie Wenjun smiled bitterly again.
"What are you doing here, the old lady is safe this time, and I have no regrets in this life." He said.
Xie Roujia looked at him.
"Oh, it turns out that Fifth Uncle, you are also the same as Grandpa Du." She said.
Xie Wenjun was stunned.
Same as Du Wangshu?
"Du Wangshu is because Miss Pang is dead, so whether it is his grandmother's fault or not, he has no way to cross this hurdle himself, and he does not dare to face the criticism of the world." Xie Roujia looked at Xie Wenjun and said, "And because of this incident, you feel that you can't be with Miss Nana anymore, you think this is a punishment for yourself, so that you can feel at ease, but in fact, it is just cowardice like Du Wangshu." ”
Cowardice.
Xie Wenjun stopped talking, thoughtful.
"If you encounter a little wind and rain, you can't face it together, so in this way, you and Miss Nana really don't want to be together." Xie Roujia said, and smiled again when she said this, "I think the fifth uncle should be like Du Wangshu, he will not marry anyone in this life, it seems that he is punishing himself, but in fact, he is just deceiving himself." ”
Xie Wenjun's face was a little embarrassed.
"However, I believe that Miss Nana will not be like Grandmother." Xie Roujia thought of something again and said.
Xie Wenjun looked up at her, and the little girl's eyes in front of him were bright.
"I think Miss Nana is very brave and smart, she is a person who can afford to take it and let it go, she will not do those stupid things that are happy and self-comforting, even if their Du family has experienced this kind of unjustified disaster this time, the family road will be more difficult, but I think she will definitely live a good life." Xie Roujia said.
Xie Wenjun was silent.
………………………………………….
"You're saying that, too, is too harsh."
Pulling Xie Roujia out, Shao Mingqing said with a sigh.
"What kind of ruthlessness is this, it is better to be able to understand the truth by being said a few words, than to die once to understand it." Xie Roujia said.
Shao Mingqing laughed.
"Yes." He said, looked at Xie Roujia again, and sighed, "Look at what this face and this eyes have become." ”
Xie Roujia looked at him and smiled.
"If it weren't for you, it would have been even harder this time." She said, "If you hadn't stopped the fifth uncle in time, even if the old lady was fine, I..."
Thinking that the fifth uncle almost died of poisoning again, Xie Roujia felt breathless.
This time it's not an elixir, it's cinnabar that hasn't been refined into an elixir.
And this time it was not Shao Mingqing who forced him to eat, but Shao Mingqing rescued him.
Let's just say that everything is different, everything has changed, and everything has changed for the better.
Xie Roujia stretched out her hand to hug Shao Mingqing, tears flowed down her eyes.
Shao Mingqing laughed.
"Oh, hey, our great witch, the great witch who can drive people back from the Hades palace crying nose." He laughed.
Xie Roujia sneered again, reaching out to twist his waist.
"Alright, alright." Shao Mingqing smiled, patted her head, and also exhaled, "It's all over, it's all right." ”
"Grandmother hasn't woken up yet." Xie Roujia said, letting go of him and wiping his tears.
"Then stay and wait for the old lady to wake up." Shao Mingqing said.
"But, I...."Xie Roujia pointed to her face.
Shao Mingqing smiled and patted her head.
"Well, you don't have to worry about it, let's go find Master Xie." He said, raising an eyebrow, "I think Master Xie will arrange it." ”
The last trace of the sunset disappeared, and the Xie family's mansion, which had been lively for two days and one night, finally quieted down.
Mrs. Xie was still in Mrs. Xie's bedroom, because according to the doctor's instructions, she was not allowed to move or let too many people in the room, so she only let her close family members serve.
When night fell, the maids and servants standing under the porch couldn't help but doze off, and after staying up for two days and one night, they couldn't stay up.
The room was silent, and the old woman who was lying down moved her hand at her side by the light of the two lamps beside the bed, then turned her head and opened her eyes.
The faint interior confused her eyes, and she turned her head to see the person lying on the side of the bed.
An old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face was asleep with his mouth open and his arms on his back.
Old Madam Xie looked at him and slowly raised her hand to touch his head.
When did your hair turn so white and your face wrinkled?
I remember how many years younger he seems to be than himself, small, how old?
How do you look older than yourself?
With his hand brushed over his face, the sleeping old man opened his eyes smartly, and looked at Old Madam Xie who was looking at him.
He froze for a moment.
"Ah Shan?" He muttered.
Old Madam Xie snorted.
"Still sleeping!" She muffled, trying to withdraw her hand.
Old Lady Xie grabbed her hand, tears welled up, and people jumped up.
"You're awake, you're awake." He shouted, "Come on, come on!" Ah Shan is awake, Ah Shan is awake. ”
He wanted to rush out, but he was reluctant to let go of Mrs. Xie's hand, and his legs and feet were weak and he couldn't walk, so he simply knelt down and cried loudly.
Old Madam Xie looked at him, and the hand that was about to be withdrawn slowly unloaded the power, let him pull it tightly, and a tear slipped from the corner of her eye.
