Cui Wenjun asked very carefully, with a little flattery, she was excited, but she was not stupid, she would not be naΓ―ve to think that An Lan took the initiative to come to her at this time, and she came to recognize her relatives. This girl's dead temperament is exactly the same as when she was young, Granny An's death, although this girl has never said a word of resentment, it doesn't mean that she can let go so quickly.
Cui Wenjun is not very clear about the matter on Qinghe's side at present, but no matter what happens, the first time her daughter talks to her, of course she will not refuse. Moreover, the matter of rushing Bai Guanghan to pick up An Lan from the incense courtyard and cultivating it with her heart is worthy of her help to Bai Guanghan.
However, Bai Guanghan must not think about it!
An Lan put down the tea cup in her hand gently, looked at Cui Wenjun, nodded slightly, and said sincerely: "Mr. Guanghan handed over to me the matter of transporting incense to this recent fleet, I heard early this morning that the convoy encountered some small troubles on the Qinghe side, because it was the first time for me to take over such an important matter, and I had no experience before, and I didn't know much about the situation on the Qinghe side, because I knew that Qinghe was Mr. Cui's birthplace, so I ...... I had to come to consult Mr. Cui, and I hope that Mr. can give advice. β
"Bai Guanghan handed over this matter to you?" Cui Wenjun was a little surprised, the incense that Tianshu Hall transported back this time was set by Bai Ye back then, and it stands to reason that Bai Guanghan should be personally responsible for it.
An Lan nodded, Cui Wenjun looked at her for a while, and asked rhetorically, "What do you want me to do?" β
An Lan couldn't help but be stunned, so she looked at Cui Wenjun and hesitated slightly, Cui Wenjun said again: "Bai Guanghan's scheming is so deep that others can't reach it, and I have never liked to calculate, I don't want to investigate what kind of purpose he asked you to be responsible for this matter, and now that he will let you come to me, it is accurate that I will not refuse you." β
An Lan paused. couldn't help but say, "Mr. Guanghan didn't let me come to you, I took the initiative to ask for it." β
Cui Wenjun looked at her and sighed: "Silly girl......" Then without waiting for An Lan to speak, he continued: "I will send a message back, let the convoy of the Tianshu Hall pass through Qinghe smoothly, and give full help." β
After she finished speaking, she looked at An Lan.
An Lan understood, and said, "Sir, please speak." β
Cui Wenjun hesitated. In the end, he said directly: "Child." I don't beat around the bush with you, Xie Yun came to me, and justly. The goldfinch has already told me everything, so ......"
When she said this, she suddenly paused, and An Lan couldn't help but clench her palms. Silently waiting for the conditions she will propose.
Cui Wenjun sighed softly, and then continued: "So." As a mother, I don't allow anyone to be bad for my children. He got you back for me, and I'm grateful and I'll do my best to help him. As long as he lets you go. β
An Lan was silent, lowered her eyes, and looked at the refreshments that were placed in front of her.
I don't know if these refreshments were specially prepared for her. Everything is so delicate that it doesn't look like something to eat...... But she came here out of nowhere today, just to prepare. It's too late in time.
"An Lan, you have to understand that when a man is ruthless, what he can do is something you can't imagine no matter what." Cui Wenjun didn't dare to push her into a hurry, so he had to persuade slowly, "I'm not asking you to break off with him, as long as you are willing to leave, whether he agrees or not, leave the rest to me." β
"I'll be in the futureβ" An Lan raised her face and looked at Cui Wenjun and said, "I'll come over every day to greet you." β
Cui Wenjun was stunned and forgot what he was going to say next.
An Lan continued: "When I was in Yuanxiang Courtyard before, although I didn't live in a room with Granny An, I went to see my mother-in-law almost every day. At that time, my mother-in-law's legs were already difficult to rope and could not carry water, so Goldfinch and I went to carry water for my mother-in-law whenever we were free. However, we were still young at that time, and we didn't have much strength, and after falling a few times, we remembered to find a wooden stick and two people to carry water together. β
Cui Wenjun's eyes were a little red, and he asked distressedly: "Cai, only seven years old, have you already gone to fetch water?" β
She had seen An Lan at the age of seven in the fragrance realm, thin and small, like a kitten, only so big, how could she carry a bucket!
"It is right to honor your mother-in-law." An Lan looked at Cui Wenjun, her clear eyes sparkling, "You don't lack people who carry water, but I can make tea for you, maybe it's not as good as the incense waiter next to you, but I will learn it by heart." I will also make a few simple foods, and I have made them for my mother-in-law before, as long as you don't dislike it, I will make it for you to taste in the future. β
Facing those dark eyes, even though he knew that she was negotiating terms with himself in a bent way, Cui Wenjun still felt that his whole heart had melted. Then I felt more and more distressed, how could such a good child have suffered for so many years, and now it is really not enough to compensate.
"How could I dislike it, but An Lan, this thing is the same as what I just said-" Cui Wenjun was struggling in her heart, and she realized that she would have a day when it would be difficult for her to express her thoughts smoothly.
An Lan suddenly said again: "I came over today, in fact, there is another matter. β
Cui Wenjun stopped and asked, "What's the matter?" β
"Since my mother-in-law left, I only went to see off my mother-in-law on the day she entered the earth, although I was a little involuntary at the time, but it really shouldn't be." When she said this, she lowered her eyes and paused for a while, then raised her eyes and looked at Cui Wenjun, "Mother-in-law's tomb is not far from Yuheng Palace, so I want to pay homage to my mother-in-law today." β
"Of course, it's okay." Cui Wenjun said busily, and stood up as he spoke, "I'll ask someone to prepare incense, candles, and paper horses, and I'll accompany you over." β
An Lan also stood up: "I have already brought incense." β
β¦β¦
Dayan Mountain is a treasure land of feng shui, because Granny An has no children and no daughters, she was sold into Cui's Mansion back then, so after her death, Cui Wenjun asked people to choose a place on Dayan Mountain for Granny An to be buried. Because of this, the golden finch's impression of Cui Wenjun has improved a little.
An Lan slowly knelt down, placed the melon and fruit snacks in front of Granny An's tombstone, and then placed the incense burner, and took out the incense she had prepared and lit it carefully, bowed three times seriously, solemnly inserted the incense burner, and then still knelt, looking at the tombstone, looking a little stunned.
The mother-in-law's voice and smile are still there, and the words she said to her in the past are still vivid, but now why has she become a steamed bun?
It's winter, the grass on the grave has withered and yellowed, everywhere is full of cold, green smoke curls on the incense burner, and I don't know if it can really convey the thoughts of the living.
Cui Wenjun stood behind An Lan, looking at the thin and sad back, and wanted to open her mouth several times to get her up, but before the words came out, he closed it again.
"Sometimes, I'm thinking about ......" I don't know how long it took, An Lan said in a low voice, "I've been used to death since I was born. β
Cui Wenjun's heart thumped.
"I don't have an impression earlier, I just remember that when Liu Banxian died, I was very scared, and when Xiaohui died, I chose to forget everything because I couldn't accept it. Before entering Genxiangyuan, the families that were sold into also encountered death, or the main family suffered misfortune, or the people around them suffered diseases, and those people left one after another. And after entering the Yuanxiang Temple, the first woman who cared a little about me also fell off the cliff and died not long after, and then it was my turn, I almost died under the stick at that time, because I lost my memory, so my brain was not very clear, but I still felt that human life was really fragile, cheap and worthless......"
