Extra: "Beauty Like Flowers Across the Clouds" (7)
I thought that my grandfather had nothing to say, and my father was inconvenient to come in anyway...... So for so long, my father was waiting outside?
Jingyi sighed secretly.
"Mr. Cheng asked me to tell you that you can accompany the old lady here, and it is convenient to take care of anything." Chen's mother said.
Jingyi nodded and asked, "Grandpa didn't say that he drove us away?" β
Chen's mother pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her head.
Jing Yi turned her face and winked at Old Madam Feng and said, "Grandpa just drove us away, and he didn't leave." β
Old Madam Feng laughed out loud, slowly turned around according to Jingyi's meaning, and lay down on the bed. Chen's mother came over to help and asked Jingyi to inject her.
Jingyi whispered to her, distracting her spirit, hearing her sigh lightly, thinking that her hands were heavy, and she was about to be lighter, only to hear what she said clearly: "It's really hard to have this filial piety......"
Jingyi pulled out the needle and rubbed it for her. When she was back to her stomach, she stayed by the bedside again.
"Go and rest. Rushing from Shanghai, how hard it was along the way. Old Madam Feng said. She looked at Chen's mother. Chen's mother said that the bedding in the wing room was ready-made, and when they moved in, the landlord had prepared it in advance. She just asked someone to clean up again, and Miss Cheng just went over to rest.
"I'm here with you." Jingyi didn't want to leave. First, I don't feel at ease, and I can't give up anymore.
Old Madam Feng stroked Jingyi's chin with her slightly cool hand, looked at her, and said, "If you're tired, go and rest." Don't get tired. β
Jingyi nodded and said, "Grandma, don't worry, I'm not tired." β
Of course, Old Madam Feng was reluctant to let her go, and talked to her softly.
Jingyi felt that although she and her grandmother were close for the first time, they did not feel estranged at all. It was as if a hand in the dark was constantly pulling them closer...... She thought how relieved it would be to see their mother so close if she was still there. It's a pity that it can't be now...... She took out a small gold bag from her purse, opened it, and took out a stack of small photos to show Old Madam Fengβmost of them photos of her heart. She has recently sorted out everything from her infancy to the present. The last one is a group photo of their family of three.
Mrs. Feng asked Chen's mother to bring the glasses to her, put them on, and looked at the photo carefully. She looked at Jingyi for a long time before she said, "Like, really like...... Yo, but it's not like my uncle......"
Jingyi smiled.
Whoever sees Suixin says that he looks exactly like her. In her opinion, Sui Xin's eyebrows and eyes are still quite similar to Tao Xiang's.
"My uncle gave birth very well. The photos in the newspaper are often blurry, and the birth is good. If you look at it so clearly, you can't believe it in the photograph...... Too much worse. Old Madam Feng looked at the group photo again and again, and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, "This family affair is good." β
Jing Yi smiled and said nothing.
"It's just this girl, it's a little thinner. While you're young, let's regenerate. Old Madam Feng looked at the photo of Suixin again, and her face was full of love. Can I keep the photos? β
Jing Yi saw that she hadn't agreed yet, and her grandmother was already afraid that she would take it back, so she took it like a baby, wrapped it in a silk handkerchief, and pressed it under the pillow, so she smiled and said, "It's skinny, and there is no photo to look at the well-behaved." β
"When you were young, you were naughty too." Old Madam Feng said with a smile.
Jingyi was stunned for a moment, and when she saw that her grandmother was tired, she understood that she was tired, so she didn't ask.
Old Madam Feng fell asleep, still holding Jingyi's hand.
Jingyi carefully put her hand back under the covers.
Chen's mother came over and put on a robe for her, and asked her softly if she was going to sleep, "It's better not to go to the side room, just take a nap on the couch." Here I am, Miss Cheng. β
Jingyi said: "I'm not sleepy yet. β
Chen's mother looked at her for a while, lowered her head, and sat on the footstool, accompanying Jingyi. The night was quiet, and I could hear the slightest movement outside.
"My wife said yesterday that I can see you this time." Chen's mother whispered. She saw that Jingyi was not unhappy, but looked at her with encouragement in her eyes, so she continued to whisper: "Mrs. has seen you, and she is very well...... Miss Cheng, can you see more of your wife in the future? β
Jingyi smiled and nodded. She looked back at the old man lying on the bed, and gently dimmed the oil lamp. The smell of kerosene was a little pungent, the tip of her nose was numb, and she hurriedly rubbed it, and told Chen's mother to let her rest and guard it here. Chen's mother listened to the order and went outside to rest. Jing Yi leaned against the bed, looking at Old Madam Feng from time to time...... The wind was blowing outside, and the branches of the trees kept knocking on the windows.
She seemed to smell a faint fragrance.
At this time, it should be the plum blossoms that are in bloom......
For two days in a row, Jingyi didn't take a step out of Old Madam Feng's bedroom. Under her careful care, Mrs. Feng recovered quickly, and that evening, she was able to walk two steps on the ground, and her steps did not lag. When she went to the window and looked at the plum blossoms that were quietly blooming in the drizzle outside, she looked at them for a long time, and said, "It turned out that the plum blossoms were blooming." β
"Hmm." Jingyi stood beside her grandmother.
The plum blossoms are faint and have a unique style. There are only two old plums in this small courtyard, which are rare green calyx plums in the north. In the damp rain and mist, it is quietly open, and it is really beautiful...... Jingyi looked at the plum blossom, and suddenly felt a flower in front of her, and a ball of light suddenly lit up in the thick shadow behind the plum shadow, and she actually saw a tall shadow flashing out. She was stunned for a moment, and then her grandmother asked, "Who is here?" β
"Is it my father?" Jing Yi's heart was pounding. Except for the guards, only her father was taller, but she knew it wasn't. Others don't act like that...... She leaned out a little to take a closer look.
The window here is the east window of the inner hall, and when someone enters the courtyard, they can see it immediately, but the other party may not be able to spot them immediately. Jing Yi took a closer look, but it was really Tao Xiang. Her face warmed up and she said, "Why is he here......
It's really Tao Xiang.
For two days, he hadn't been in front of each other. The people around him didn't come once. Even though she was in the same city, she knew the situation, and she might not be able to see him again before she left. Gradually, the glimmer of hope she had held was dispelled. Only occasionally could she hear the sound of artillery fire coming from outside the city, and her heart was tugging...... But she can't show this little bit of her mind in front of people.
My grandfather didn't seem to hate them as much as he had two days before, and when he came in to visit my grandmother, he was willing to sit and listen to them for a while. When there was a cannon fire again, it happened that my grandfather was also there, and I was about to see her momentarily stunned, and even when my grandmother asked her, she forgot to pick it up immediately, and the old man said: "It should be a military drill, don't worry." β
The old man got up and left, leaving her and her grandmother speechless for a while.
Grandmother said that your grandfather has become more and more eccentric over the years, and it is rare to see which one of them...... This uncle of yours is the exception to the exception in my opinion. I still think about it a long time ago, one day, he went out for tea and came back to say that the seventh son of Tao Shengchuan, the king of the northwest, was not bad. If you want to ask him anything, he won't say anything......
She asked her grandmother when it was, and she said she couldn't remember it exactly, but it had been a few years.
How many years has she been thinking about the old lady, how many years is it? Calculation headache.
I haven't slept well in the past few days, so I naturally have a headache; What can make her feel that she doesn't have a headache is that her grandmother is in good health, and she can leave Xuzhou with them soon, and her grandfather's stubborn old man, accompanied by his father, although he still loses his temper from time to time, like a big fireball, but the more he looks at it, the more he feels that he is a little self-satisfied. Thinking about it, even if you tie him up and force him to leave here, you will push the boat down the river......
Old Madam Feng was stunned for a moment when she saw Jingyi, and told Chen's mother to go out and have a look.
After a while, I heard someone talking outside, and Mrs. Feng sat down with the help of Jingyi, and I could hear a low male voice outside, talking to Chen's mother asking to see Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Tao...... Old Madam Feng heard it clearly, looked at Jingyi with a smile, nodded, but didn't say anything.
Jingyi lowered her head.
Mrs. Tao ...... Listen to his serious appearance.
Chen's mother came in and said Mrs., Commander Tao asked to see her.
Chen's mother looked at Jingyi as she spoke, smiling silently. Jing Yi's face was a little hot when she looked at her, and she turned her face to look at Old Madam Feng, and she didn't say anything, just looked.
Old Madam Feng was really in a happy mood, pushed Jingyi, and said, "It's obviously my own family, why don't you speak quickly and let my uncle wait outside for so long...... You go first. β
Jingyi didn't know why she felt even more embarrassed, she brushed the broken hair from her ears, and saw that her grandmother was going to retouch it, so she had to go out first.
As she walked, she looked back at Old Madam Feng - in fact, the old man was blameless, she was a dignified and dignified old lady, and she thought that she should be more thoughtful in front of her grandson-in-law who came back to meet her...... She came out, and the girl at the door opened it for her.
Tao Xiang was standing in the middle waiting. A mother-in-law came to serve him tea, but he still stood and did not sit down to drink tea.
It was drizzling outside, and he was damp. But when I walked through the courtyard and entered the house, it was as if I had been stained with a faint fragrance...... As soon as he looked up at the bright place, he vaguely saw the figure of a beautiful woman in the window under the shade of a plum tree--he deeply felt that the anger and blood accumulated in his body before the two days of the war had disappeared a little in an instant.
He heard the familiar sound of gentle footsteps, turned around, and before he could see the man, he heard an "ouch".
