Chapter Seventy-Five: Purpose
Seeking supportββ
The sixteenth master's cry was really heartbroken, and the crying was higher and higher, and the Zhen Xun inside also made him cry.
Everyone on the side looked at each other, and it was difficult to persuade them, so they could only vent their emotions by him.
The old lady Jiang stood in the courtyard, her face expressionless, and she only knew that the old lady's hands were trembling slightly.
The old lady is old, she only sleeps for a while at night, and her body is a little rickety.
She clenched Zhen Jue's hand, which made Zhen Jue's brows tighten, and the old voice repeated it several times: "Flesh and blood, it is really flesh and blood!" β
Zhen Jue didn't dare to cry out in pain, and she didn't dare to withdraw her hand, and was about to call Mrs. Jiang softly, when she saw tears in the corners of the old lady's eyes, she hurriedly shut up.
After so many years of hard work, although it can't be said that it is the same as her own child, Mrs. Jiang asked herself if it was good to treat this inherited son.
If it weren't for the fact that the maid gave birth to a daughter, she would not have insisted on going her own way, and insisted on taking her family to the north, and staying in that unfamiliar place for nearly ten years.
After the sixteenth old man Shiyi arrived in the north, Xu did not have the pressure of being in a dilemma between the second and fourth rooms, and the fourth old lady and Mrs. Jiang became closer day by day.
But the old man is old, he misses his hometown, and he has been moving to the south for many years, and the sixteenth old man is so old, it shouldn't be a problem. Only then did the family move back to Yongzhou.
It's just that mother and son can't deceive people by nature, and the news of Mrs. Bao's death hit the sixteenth old man in the end. Such heart-rending crying is afraid that it will cry out so many years of gloom.
Old Mrs. Jiang's mood is very complicated, if the sixteenth old man doesn't cry, this son will be raised to be a cold-blooded person, and when she and the fourth old lady are older, can they still rely on him? But after crying, she had pimples again, afraid that the sixteenth master would care about her biological mother too much, but resented her adoptive mother who made him unable to fulfill his filial piety in front of his biological mother.
The sixteenth old man cried for a long time, and then his voice became quieter. But he couldn't get up, and sat on the ground in a daze.
Zhang came out to see when he first heard the cry, and when he heard it, it was because Mrs. Bao had passed away, so how dare he go up to comfort him. I had to retract back into the house to continue taking care of Zhen Xun.
Chen Yubao's family knows that there must be orders. He didn't go away, but stood in the corner waiting to be dispatched.
Zhou discussed a few words with Duan and asked, "Fu Ling is back." Are they all back? β
Chen Yubao's family wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied, "It's all back." Originally, the second lady was scheduled to leave the cabinet next summer, but now she has to keep her filial piety, so she can only postpone it. β
Zhou silently counted in his heart, so many people, Qinghetang has been vacant for so many years. I don't know if it's too late to start repairing now. It's just that this house is such a little place, and the emptiest is Qingdetang. It's just that the relationship between the second room and the fourth room will not agree to live together.
Thinking of this, Zhou also had a headache, so he asked Chen Yubao's family to spread the word, and hurriedly found another group of workers, saying that they would repair Qinghetang before the year.
Zhen Xuan persuaded Ji to rest for a while, sat on the edge of the bed and took care of Zhen Heng, and drank the medicine again in the afternoon, sweating densely. Zhen Xuan and Lu's mother held hands, carefully dried them, and changed their clothes, but no matter how gentle the movements were, Zhen Heng snorted a few times in pain. Zhen Xuan was distressed, and whispered a few words of comfort, Zhen Heng should have heard it, and his brows stretched a little.
Caimei brought in another snack, and her mouth broke a few words: "They are all praising Miss Nine, but she is young but careful, that is, Mrs. Sixteen treats her badly, and she is still thinking about preparing food for all the old ladies, ladies, lords and young ladies." β
Zhen Xuan drank sweet potato soup and asked, "Is the ninth sister still in the kitchen?" β
Cai Mei nodded: "Here it is." The sixteenth old man was not in good spirits, Mr. He prescribed a soothing medicine, and Miss Nine was boiling it herself. β
Ji ran out, raised his hand and combed Li Zhenxuan's forehead: "Mother looked at my brother, you didn't sleep last night, go lie down for a while now, be obedient." β
Zhen Xuan didn't want to go against Ji's will at this time, nodded and planned to go to Zhen Lin to squint for a while, thinking about Caimei's words, and went to the kitchen after going out.
Zhen Jue sat on the side boiling medicine, fanning the fire in the medicine stove with a pu fan, and sometimes turned back to say a few words to the cook lady.
When Zhen Xuan went in, she only felt that it was full of medicinal smells, and she couldn't help but sneeze.
Zhen Jue raised her head when she heard the voice, and said in surprise: "Why is Seventh Sister here?" There are heavy fireworks here, so be careful. β
"If you can come, I can't come?" Zhen Xuan raised the corners of her lips slightly, and saw that Zhen Xuan's face was stained with a lot of black stains, and took out a handkerchief for her, "Hurry up and wipe it, it's like a flower cat." β
Zhen Jue took the handkerchief, but did not wipe his face, and said: "The two younger brothers are injured, and Ruan's mother is gone, where can I care if my face is dirty or not, just go back and wash it, don't stain your handkerchief." She looked at the plum blossom pattern on the handkerchief and said, "Sister, I heard that our female embroiderers in Yongzhou are all very good, and you embroidered this handkerchief yourself?" β
Zhen Xuan didn't know that Zhen Xuan suddenly asked about this, so he said, "It's embroidered on peach silk." β
"Why doesn't my sister embroider it herself?" Zhen Jue asked.
Zhen Xuan looked away slightly, she couldn't let people know that her embroidery was exactly the same as Mo Yan's, so she shirked and said, "I don't embroider much, it's all prepared by Tao Aya." β
It was about Zhen Xuan who saw that she was unwilling to answer, so she stopped asking, Zhen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and did not stay in the kitchen, and went to Zhen Lin's house.
Zhen Lin was in the room, lying on the table with her chin propped up, and when she saw Zhen Xuan, she beckoned: "Come and talk to me for a while." β
Zhen Xuan saw Zhen Lin's distress on her face and asked, "What is the fourth sister thinking?" β
Sighing, Zhen Lin looked at Zhen Xuan and said, "I know it's not good to say this at this time, but I really have no one to say, so I can only tell you." No matter how I think about it, I don't think something is right. Ruan's mother is either a nurse for the first day, or someone is talking to her. She won't leave her two younger brothers alone and let them run away. β
Zhen Xuan also thought so in her heart, Mother Lu walked away to get water because there was still Mother Ruan by her side, Mother Ruan knew that there was no one else in the road, how could she still leave? Even if you want to leave, you have to wait until Lu's mother comes back. Thinking of what Lu's mother said in the middle of the night, Ruan's mother's family situation, Zhen Xuan simply told Zhen Lin about this.
"For the sake of the child, Ruan's mother will not easily commit suicide." Zhen Xuan folded her brows and said. "Later, I learned that the eighth uncle and grandmother had passed away, and it made sense to think about it that way, but I always felt gloomy. I don't know if it's true or not. β
Zhen Lin also meant the same: "Let's not talk about that for now. only said that Ruan's mother left for something. The thirteenth brother couldn't remember, and the eleventh brother didn't wake up...... Let me say something with the heart of a villain, what if someone deliberately broke up Ruan's mother? β
Zhen Xuan's eyes widened. almost screamed, and seeing Zhen Lin's cautious look, he tried to suppress his voice: "Deliberately branched? For what? β
"Yes, for what?" Zhen Xuan also asked, pointing her finger at her chin and thinking. "That's what I don't understand. A person, no matter what he does. There is always a purpose, but I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't understand what it would be for if someone broke up Mother Lu, that is, what would it do to hurt the eleventh and thirteenth brothers in the end? β
Zhen Lin's assumption was something Zhen Xuan hadn't thought about before, she always thought that Ruan's mother walked away by herself, but she didn't think that maybe someone deliberately broke her away. If there really is such a person, does he know that such a big thing will happen later, and if everything is expected, what is the plan?
"Fourth sister, look." Zhen Xuan tried to analyze, "After that, two were injured and two were punished, our fifth and second rooms will not joke about the safety of the eleventh and thirteenth brothers, and you will not harm your own brother, this is ......"
Zhen Lin nodded slowly, agreeing with Zhen Xuan's words: "I think about it, so far, no one has reaped the benefits!" β
Zhen Xuan thought of Aunt Li, and heard that she was bent on letting the Duan family punish Zhen Hui, so she asked, "What about Aunt Li?" β
Zhen Lin snorted: "She doesn't have the guts." β
This time is different from the last time at the end of the night, it is to implicate Zhende, Aunt Li does not dare to do this kind of thing under Duan's nose, besides, Zhenke has only entered Beijing, and there is still a month or two before leaving the pavilion.
The two thought carefully a few more times, and Zhen Lin smiled apologetically at Zhen Xuan: "I really want to go wrong, there is no such person, and I have been pulling you to accompany me for so long." β
"It's better for us to think clearly than to have something in our hearts and have doubts about our family." Zhen Xuan comforted her a few words, and her sleepiness came up, so she didn't say goodbye to Zhen Lin, and lay down on the couch and slept for a while.
Zhen Heng's burning finally subsided before dawn on the third day, and Mrs. Li recited Amitabha Buddha several times with her eyes closed, and thanked Mr. He again and again.
Wanmo got the letter and hurriedly ran to report to Mama Qin.
When Zhen Heng woke up, his body was very weak, Zhen Xuan fed a bowl of rice soup, and asked a few words in a warm voice: "Does it still hurt?" If you feel uncomfortable, you have to tell your sister. β
Zhen Heng showed a smile and said, "Sister, I heard you call me, when I dreamed, there was still my mother and grandmother." β
Zhen Xuan's nose was sour, tears were falling down, she touched Zhen Heng's little face, and said, "Yes, we have been talking to you." β
Zhou came in to see Zhen Heng, didn't dare to ask more, only mentioned a few words, heard Zhen Heng say that an unknown maid came to say a few words to Ruan's mother, but because he was on his back and across the trees, he didn't see who it was, and he didn't pay attention to when Ruan's mother left.
Later, Zhende and Zhenhui passed by, saying that they were going to play, and when they saw Zhenxun arguing to follow, they ran away, Zhenxun was angry, crying and shouting to chase, Zhenheng was worried about Zhenxun, and also followed, so he fell.
Zhou didn't ask again, and went out.
At the end, a letter came, saying that Zhen Xun's foot injury was not particularly good, the child's bones still had to grow, and there was a chance to raise it back, but he was not completely sure.
Zhang's crying was sad, and Mrs. Li sighed when she heard it, but she said that she was a white and mellow child who was afraid that she would be disabled, and it was no wonder that she couldn't accept it as a mother.
Zhen Xuan's mind was down at this time, and what came to her mind was Zhen Lin's words, and their sisters didn't discuss a result, but she still felt uncomfortable, so she opened her mouth to Mrs. Li.
When Mrs. Li heard this, she took a sip of tea slowly, pulled Zhen Xuan to her side, and said, "I also thought about it like this, but there is no real evidence, these words have not hurt the feelings of the family, you, you still can't think of it well." β
When Zhen Xuan heard this, she was horrified, Mrs. Li thought about it like this, does it mean that there is really such a candidate? (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come (qidian.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
