"Remembering the Monarch Across the Blue Sky"

"Mr. Cheng." Aunt Li turned around and whispered to Cheng Jingyi, who was changing clothes. "When you came back, did you feel that something was wrong?"

Jingyi tied the button under her flank, and also whispered: "Nothing abnormal, the car is still following." ”

She heard a voice outside, looked at Aunt Li, and shook her head.

Aunt Li lowered her voice a little lower and said, "Sir, you must be careful when you enter and exit......

"I know. This is the French Concession, and they don't dare to do anything. Jingyi tried to speak as calmly and relaxed as possible. Since one day half a month ago, there were suspicious people and cars waiting outside her mansion, and her personal safety has become the most worrying thing in this family. The third brother asked her to withdraw to the rear with the ancestors and grandchildren of the Tao family, so as not to worry about everyone's worries, and instructed Shanghai Tek to secretly protect her. Although Tao Xiang did not forcibly order her to evacuate Shanghai, he also asked Du Wenda to take proper care of He.

The spies who were frequently active around her, although they had not brought substantial trouble to her daily life for the time being, still made her seriously consider whether to send Mrs. Tao and Suixin back to Lanzhou. At the moment, she can neither leave the hospital behind, nor be too far away from Tao Xiang...... The battle was fought so fiercely that the army was swallowed up in an instant as if it had been thrown into a furnace. She reads newspapers and listens to the radio every day, and China outside the concession is like purgatory on earth. Her lover was among them, but she couldn't help anything, and it was already painful.

"The car was parked outside, and I looked panicked." Aunt Li said again. She was very worried about her hostess.

"Don't tell the old lady about that. Fortunately, the old lady doesn't go out much, so it's not good for her to know that she is worried. Jingyi instructed.

She was ready to go down to dinner. I came back a little late today, and although I called 61 to ask them not to wait for her, Mrs. Tao and Suixin were still waiting for her together.

Aunt Li nodded and said, "But the old lady should also know." I got up early this morning to go grocery shopping, and before I went out, the old lady said that I would talk to the driver and go another route. ”

Jingyi's heart moved, and just as she was about to say something, she heard someone knock on the door, "Please come in." ”

She straightened out her cheongsam.

The weather is hot, and it is immediately wet again after taking a shower and changing clothes. She grabbed a folding fan.

It was Suixin who came in, followed by the white lion and the snowball - the snowball was already like a dog, but she was still naughty and wanted to make love when she saw someone, and after a while, she stained the hem of Jingyi's cheongsam with a lot of snow-white fluff - so she hurriedly hugged the snowball, patted it, and said to Jingyi: "Is Mom hungry?" ”

Jingyi bent over and kissed her daughter, and said with a smile: "I'm hungry, I only ate a cake in the afternoon today...... Let's go down and eat. ”

"Grandma said you must not have eaten, and she said that you have lost a lot of weight these days." Then he looked up at Jing Yi, blinking his big eyes, his dark eyes were wet, "Mom, can you not be so busy?" ”

She raised her hand and grabbed Jingyi's fingers and tugged, and the snowball in her arms licked her chin desperately.

Jingyi kissed her again, and said with a smile: "I'm a little busy, but you see that I'm very fast, right?" Don't worry about me or grandma. ”

She took Suixin's hand and went out of the room with her.

The white lion slouched inside the door, and Jingyi pulled it up - the white lion was getting lazier, and she needed to take a little more time to let it exercise more...... Then I talked to her about what happened at home all day and what she did with her grandmother when she wasn't at home...... The mother and daughter were walking on the porch when the lights suddenly went out. The hallway went dark. This has been a common occurrence lately, and they have not panicked, but have slowed down. Only Aunt Li hurriedly took out a foreign fire from her apron, lit the kerosene lamp placed on the shelf on the side, held it in her hand, and walked in front to shine it.

The faint light that came on in the darkness was warm. But the fan suddenly stopped, and the room was suddenly stuffy.

Jingyi looked at Suixin, and Suixin was also looking at her.

Jingyi whispered: "Nan, my mother will come back late in the future, and you have to eat on time with grandma, do you know?" You're growing up, grandma is too old to go hungry. Mommy isn't at home, you have to take care of grandma, okay? ”

"Oh." Then he agreed, "But Mom, you have to eat on time." If you don't eat on time, how can you have the strength to take care of your patients? ”

"That's right." Mrs. Tao was getting up from the sofa and looked at Suixin and Jingyi, "It's time to eat." ”

"Mother, don't always wait for me in the future." Jingyi felt very sorry not to go.

"It doesn't matter if you wait." Mrs. Tao asked Suixin to put down the snowball, not to always hold the puppy will be spoiled, and when Suixin obediently put down the snowball, she asked Suixin to wash her hands and prepare for dinner. She motioned for Jingyi to go over with her first, and when she sat down, she looked at Jingyi and said, "These days, the water pipe in our house has been checked five times, the electric 61 line has been overhauled four times, and the circuit has been suggested to be changed three times...... I don't know what's wrong with this house yet, waiting for the man to come and check it out—how can I eat if I don't wait for you to come back for dinner?" ”

Silent and silent.

Mrs. Tao motioned for someone to serve the food.

Jingyi said: "In recent days, there have been many patients in the hospital. ”

She did not explain to Mrs. Tao why the number of patients multiplied. Under the existing conditions, the hospital is operating at full capacity. If it continues like this, sooner or later it will be overloaded. But when the hospital opened the door, she couldn't let the patient go out again...... They are patients in the church hospital, and even if they are not, they cannot refuse to see patients at will. The relatively safe and well-functioning Tzu Chi in the isolated concession is considered by many to be a haven for rescue.

She also felt tired, but she couldn't breathe a sigh of relief easily.

"Young grandma, last night you said you wanted to eat white porridge, so you specially boiled it. Soup is also prepared. What do you want here? Zhang's mother asked softly.

"Give me porridge." Jingyi said.

"Serve more." Mrs. Tao saw that Mama Zhang only filled half a bowl according to Jingyi's instructions, and said. "If you don't eat on time, and you eat so little, you're about to become an immortal."

"My mother was like a fairy." Sui Xin climbed into a chair, sat next to Mrs. Tao, and said with a grin.

Jingyi smiled.

Mrs. Tao first asked Suixin to reach over and check whether she had been cleaned, and said, "Your mother is better than Guanyin Bodhisattva in your eyes, can she still do it?" ”

She glanced at Jing Yi's thin pointed chin, and remembered that when this child first married into the Tao family, he was still young, and his face was clumped at that time, and he was very childish. Her mother-in-law likes Jingyi very much, saying that she is good-looking and blessed...... Nowadays, people have lost weight, and the beauty is still very beautiful, but it makes people worry about the small appearance at that time.

"Grandma, I didn't say that my mother is like a fairy first, but Dad said it first." Then he laid out the napkin and winked at Mrs. Tao.

Jingyi heard Suixin say this, thought about it, and didn't remember Tao Xiang saying such a thing. She thought that this was just a child's talk, so she ignored it and let her talk to Mrs. Tao. Zhang's mother put the side dishes with porridge and said that it was just pickled by Aunt Li. She nodded. Mrs. Tao came to live with Suixin, and only a few servants in close proximity brought her. This old lady can also enjoy it when she is rich, and she can endure it when she is thrifty, and she does not see any inconvenience in her. At the beginning, Aunt Li's cooking was light, and she only asked Mama Zhang to cook one or two of her delicious dishes occasionally...... Jing Yiwu thought about it while eating, and then laughed in her heart. When she looked up, she saw that Mrs. Tao was looking at her with a straight face, and Mama Zhang and Aunt Li couldn't help laughing, so they hurriedly avoided it. She was wondering when she heard Sui Xin asking, "Is it, Mom?" ”

"What's not?" Jingyi asked.

"Dad said Mom, you're a goblin. I heard him say it. It was the morning before Dad left, Dad said that Mom was a goblin, and Mom pinched Dad very much...... "Then he pouted.

Jing Yi's face was as if she had been put out by fire, and her eyebrows and hair were burned...... Fortunately, the candlelight was dim, and no one could see her face clearly.

Seeing that she didn't speak, she whispered, "I asked my father why my mother is a goblin, and my father said that it was because my mother was very smart...... Grandma, Xiaocui is a smart and beautiful goblin, right? There is also Infant Ning...... Grandma Zhang said that Ying Ning is not a goblin, but a fairy. However, Grandma Zhang said that there are good and bad vixens...... The White Lady is a good demon ......"

Jing Yi listened to the entangled string of fairies, fairies, and fox spirits, and wanted to say something for a while, but she couldn't say it in a hurry...... She really regretted that when she talked to Tao Xiang, she didn't pay attention to this child...... It's all Tao Xiang, who was obviously in his heart at the time, but he didn't pay attention to it.

I feel that this child's memory is too good, when did this happen...... He had been away from home for months. Sui Xin still remembers his jokes.

"Eat." Mrs. Tao said, picking up the chopsticks.

Then he nodded, picked up the chopsticks, and said, "When will Dad come back, I really miss him." ”

Jingyi was already embarrassed, and she couldn't wait to cover her little mouth, but when she heard her say this, she was even more speechless.

The cups on the table are scattered like astrolabes, shining little by little.

Mrs. Tao put vegetables on a plate for Suixin and said, "You eat obediently, practice the piano well, and study hard...... Dad will come back and give you a certificate. ”

Then he muttered and said, "Grandma is a liar." Dad is at war, so he won't have time to come back and send me a certificate. ”

Although it was a complaint, the little girl's delicate tone could still be heard full of hope.

Jingyi didn't say anything, Mrs. Tao couldn't help but touch Suixin's head, and said softly: "It's good if you know, let's eat." ”

After the meal, the electricity did not come, Jingyi accompanied Mrs. Tao to sit in the living room, drank tea and listened to the piano.

When they listen to the piano and practice, they always have a tacit understanding to keep quiet. Jingyi didn't know what Mrs. Tao was thinking at this time, she couldn't help but think about how good it would be if Tao Xiang was also there at this time...... It's just that she was so tired in the past two days that she didn't even want to serve a teacup at this time, sitting on the sofa, and couldn't help but take a nap.

"Let's go up early and rest." Mrs. Tao whispered.

Jingyi sat up straight, a little confused, and shook her head.

Mrs. Tao looked at her and said, "Qiu Wei lives alone with the child, why don't you let her move over with us, what do you think?" ”

Jingyi was silent for a moment and asked, "Then will you feel inconvenient?" ”

The four little tiger cub-like sons of the Tu family are also as energetic as little tiger cubs.

"Where there will be something inconvenient. Qiu Wei came over, and you didn't have to worry about it all the time, and you had to go over to see them. Mrs. Tao took a sip of tea.

Jingyi understood that her mother-in-law was watching her visit Xia Qiuwei every morning and evening, because she was afraid of her hard work.

"If you want me to say it's good for them to come over, they usually have playmates. I see that I am lonely every day, I can't play anymore, and I can't study anymore. Mrs. Tao said slowly, thinking of something, frowned slightly, and looked at the living room, "If you move here, it will be a little too crowded." It's better to go back to the sixth, and settle down. ”

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, so he ran over and said unhappily: "Grandma and mother talk, don't listen to the piano!" ”

Jingyi smiled and said, "Nan Nan's playing today is better than yesterday's, and my mother can't find fault with it...... Nannan, let Aunt Wei live with us, do you say okay? ”

Then he asked: "And the younger brother of Dabao?" ”

"That's right." Jingyi nodded.

"Good! When? Tomorrow? I'm going to call Aunt Wei for Chapter 61 now......" I was happy, and I was about to call Chapter 61 to Qiu Wei immediately, but I was stopped by Jingyi.

"It's late, Aunt Wei is going to be coaxing Sibao to sleep right now. You call Aunt Wei again tomorrow for 61 words. But there is one thing, if Aunt Wei and Brother Dabao come together, you have to look like a sister, you know? Jingyi said with a smile.

"Good!" He agreed happily, as if he had been waiting for this day for a long time, "Of course! I'm meant to be a sister! ”

"Huh?" Jing Yi rubbed Suixin's face.

"My aunt said that sooner or later I will have a lot of little brothers and sisters. I thought I couldn't be worse than Cousin Yuening and Cousin Maomao. Cousin Yuening has two younger brothers, and Cousin Maomao has a younger brother and a younger sister...... Isn't that Mom? Then he asked Jingyi.

Jingyi thought for a while and said, "Then next time you see your father, just go and ask your father, okay?" ”
