Due to the decline of the family road, the Li Mansion was moved from Wenyuan Street to Chang'an Lane.

Li Xu took his son Li Mingran to push the door in, and saw that Li Zhuying was still the same as when he went out, holding a book, half reading, half distracted, and he became angry.

"Read every day, read every day, but you can read something? After following you for half my life, the idea that I hope that your study can make our mothers live a good life has long been broken. Can you, not be like this every day? ”

Li Xu's words can be said many times a day, and for decades, Li Zhuying listened to it as the wind blowing in her ears, ignored her, and smiled at her son: "Xiao Ran is back?" ”

Li Zhuying is in her forties, her body is thin, her hair has turned a lot whiter, and her eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Li Xiangyu.

Li Xu threw down the basket in his hand and entered the house. A piece of new cloth in the basket was made for Li Mingran as a spring dress. Li Zhuying has three sons, the first two sons, Li Mingsi and Li Mingcheng, became relatives and lived separately, Li Mingran is the youngest one, seventeen this year.

Li Mingran saw his mother enter the inner room, and approached his father with a mysterious face.

"Father, I was on the street just now, and I heard those people talking, like my aunt died."

The book in Li Zhuying's hand fell to the ground with a "bang". After being stunned for a long time, his eyebrows and eyes suddenly twisted together, and he shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about?" How old is your aunt? ”

Li Mingran was taken aback by his father, and said, "People on the street said that this morning, the Yun family brought back two coffins, saying that the old lady of the Yun family went. The old lady of the Yun family, the old lady went a few years ago, and now, now... ”

Li Xu heard the voice and walked out, "Your sister went, what are you yelling at your son?" After all these years, I haven't seen her treat you as a brother, you have a brother's heart in vain. ”

Li Zhuying glared at Li Xu fiercely, stumbled out.

"Am I wrong? How dare you stare at me? Don't go, you make it clear! Li Xu shouted, and was about to rush up and pull Li Zhuying, but was stopped by his son.

"Mother, father, he's in a bad mood, so don't make trouble."

"What do you call me fuss? All right! You father and son have one heart, I have loved you for so many years! I'm miserable! Failed to give birth to a daughter intimately! Li Xu began to cry routinely again.

Li Mingran felt that his head was big.

"Mother, father, he is in a very bad state, I'll go out with me to see, don't have any accidents."

Although Li Xu was angry when he saw Li Zhuying, he had been like this for decades, and he didn't want him to have any accidents. She naturally knew that over the years, Li Zhuying had always felt ashamed of that sister. But over the years, his sister has obviously been enjoying happiness, and it is obviously himself who has suffered and suffered, but he can't see it every day.

Li Xu put away his tears, "You follow and look at him." ”

Li Mingran ran out in a hurry as if he was amnesty.

Li Mingran didn't know that his father could still run so fast, and he had already run to the corner of the alley at this moment. When he caught up, he was startled. His father, who had no temper and always smiled at him, was crying with tears all over his face.

Since Li Mingran remembers, I don't know where I heard it, saying that he has an aunt who is married very well and is a famous Yun family in Jiyang City. It's just that over the years, except for the occasional complaint about my aunt by my mother, my father never mentioned it. He never knew that in his father's heart, his aunt would be so, so important, so important that she only hid it in her heart, and now it has turned into tears.

Li Zhuying ran forward with tears streaming down her face, regardless of her image. Passers-by looked sideways, they were all acquaintances along the way, Li Mingran had no choice but to keep up, ignoring anyone's greetings, and he couldn't see them.

The porter said that Gongzi's uncle was here, and Meng Fucheng came out, but he didn't recognize it at first sight, and the person with frosted sideburns in front of him was Madame's brother, Li Zhuying. He has had little contact with his wife's mother's family, and he has been in the capital with his master for many years, thinking about it, he has not seen this man named Li Zhuying for many years.

Li Zhuying ignored Meng Fucheng's surprise, pushed him away, and rushed towards the mourning hall.

There were two black coffins side by side in the mourning hall, and after seeing Yun Jintong's name and Li Xiangyu's name on the tablet, Li Zhuying couldn't stand anymore and fell to the ground.

Yun Shu saw Li Zhuying on the evening of the second day. The group rushed back from the cemetery, covered in dust.

In the dim light shadow under the corridor, Li Zhuying stood alone, full of the desolation of "yellow-leaved trees in the rain, white-headed people under the lamp". Looking at that little figure, walking step by step. His posture is heroic, his eyebrows and eyes are so good-looking, and the way he commands things is not like a child at all, but he is still so young, and his mother is also very young, and he depends on him for his life.

Yun Shu finally noticed the person standing under the porch, and saw that he was looking at him affectionately and almost crying, and his heart was a little strange. In this cloud house, there are still people who have such deep feelings for themselves? She didn't think much about it, she was in a hurry to talk to her father and mother. He nodded at the man, lifted his robe, and was about to enter the mourning hall.

"Trees!" There was a choked voice in his voice.

Yun Shu only felt a mention in his heart, paused, and turned around.

"Trees!" The man began to cry.

Yun Shu felt that his tears, one by one, made his heart become heavy. She turned her head and looked at Steward Meng.

"Childe, this is your uncle, Li Zhuying." Steward Meng said softly.

Yun Shu looked back at Yan Shizhen.

Yan Shizhen signaled that he didn't know.

Zhuying, Xiangyu, my grandfather is a bamboo lover. Li Zhuying. Uncle. Mother's older brother, half-brother. His eyes seemed to be unbearable, did he care about me so much?

Yun Shu looked at Li Zhuying fixedly.

"You are Li Zhuying, my uncle?"

Li Zhuying nodded hurriedly. Tears fell to the floor, "snapped", so loud.

Li Zhuying wanted to step forward, wanted to stretch out her hand to Yunshu, moved half a step, stopped again, raised her hand, and put it down weakly, her expression became even more sad. He saw Yun Shu take half a step back and was supported by Yan Shizhen. He didn't want to admit himself.

Yun Shu felt very confused in his heart. For the first time, she knew that tears had so much magic, the tears of this thin man, and his eyes, which were somewhat similar to his mother's, looked at her with affection, and made a mess of her heart, her head. She grabbed Yan Shizhen's hand fiercely and took a few breaths before she said to Steward Meng: "Steward Meng, please, please, please ask my uncle to go to the side hall to see tea." ”

"Yes."

"Your side, please." Steward Meng led the way in front.

Li Zhuying looked back at Yunshu step by step.

Yan Shizhen felt her hands trembling, squatted down, and said softly, "What's the matter, Mei'er?" ”

Yun Shu turned around and hugged Yan Shizhen's neck and sobbed.

When Li Zhuying saw this scene, she didn't dare to look back.

Yan Shizhen gently patted her on the back and picked her up into the mourning hall.

"Tell my father-in-law, what's wrong? Is your uncle bad? Yan Shizhen sat on the futon, put Yunshu on his lap, and gently wiped her tears. Li Xiangyu only said that her mother's family could not let her trust Mei'er with confidence. What is the specific reason, Li Xiangyu didn't say, he didn't want to ask.

"His eyes are like those of a mother." Cloud Tree sobbed.

"Isn't that good?"

"His tears made my heart and head very messy."

Seeing that Yunshu's language was a little confused, Yan Shizhen guided: "Have you never seen this uncle?" ”

"No, I haven't been back. He also hadn't been to the cloud house in the capital either. ”

"Did your mother tell you what was wrong with her and your uncle?"

Yunshu nodded and said, "Said." ”

"Did your mother tell you how?"

Yun Shu looked at the coffin behind him and sobbed: "Mother said that she has a hurdle in her heart, and she can't step over, so let me take care of my uncle." ”

Yan Shizhen wondered in his heart: What does Li Xiangyu think, instead of entrusting a nine-year-old child to an adult to take care of, but entrusting an adult to a nine-year-old child to take care of! Could it be that in her heart, that Li Zhuying needs to be taken care of more? What kind of relationship is this? That Li Zhuying is not only thinner, but she doesn't look sick?

"Then why are you crying?"

"I don't know. I didn't expect that in this Jiyang City, there were still people who would look at me with such heavy eyes. ”

"Mei'er is too tired to stand such a heavy gaze?" Yan Shizhen patted her.

"Father, he's my uncle. I have a stepfather and an uncle, and I'm not alone. ”

Yan Shizhen hugged her hand tightly, "Don't cry, your father-in-law will always be by your side." Your uncle is here, and everything will be fine. ”

"Hmm." Yun Shu hummed, and big tears fell again.

Yan Shizhen hurriedly caught it with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "Look, I caught the tears from my eyebrows again." ”

Yunshu sobbed and curled the corners of his lips. "Father-in-law, be playful."

Yan Shizhen wiped away her tears, "It's not good to cry and swell your eyes for a while, and it will scare your uncle for a while." Also, the blood scab on the forehead hasn't fallen off yet, and if you cry it again, it will leave a scar. When the time comes, Li Ge will not spare his father-in-law. ”

Yun Shu was a child after all, and he was quickly caught up in Yan Shizhen's topic, and said with a little pride: "Brother Li said that it is also good to have a scar." ”

"Silly eyebrows! Do you believe this? He lied to you! Yan Shizhen scared her seriously.

"Huh? Father, you can't lie to me, do you? Yun Shu's little smugness froze on his face.

"If you don't wait for you to go back, your father-in-law will draw a scar on your forehead, and you can see his reaction to know if your father-in-law lied to you." Yan Shizhen said it seriously, and the bluffed Yunshu immediately put away his tears.

Yan Shizhen helped Yunshu stand up, "Come, put incense on your father and mother, we have been talking for a long time, and they are all going to be jealous of their father-in-law." Tell your father and mother what our shelter is for them today. ”

Yunshu knelt there and chattered for a long time. She emphatically described the open space in front of the tomb, saying what flowers she wants to plant, what flowers will bloom in spring, what flowers will bloom in summer, and in autumn and winter, there will be flowers to bloom and flowers to accompany them. said that he would accompany them well.

Yan Shizhen stood next to him, smiling while listening. It turns out that sometimes, Mei'er is also a little chatter.
