Chapter 13: Joy
Not long after Xia Wenmei left, a servant came to the study and knocked on the door, saying that the old man had called them down and that Mrs. Meng was leaving. Mei Jinrong put down the book, got up, Fang Xuan followed closely, put the book back in its place, and followed Mei Jinrong downstairs.
The people downstairs walked a little, and it was a lot quieter, and the old woman Meng was still sitting on the sofa, but her expression was not as relaxed as when she left just now, her brows were slightly frowned, and when Fang Xuan walked in, she only heard her grandmother say: "Let my wife think about it." General Mei smiled and nodded, saw the two of them coming over, got up and nodded and agreed: "Okay, good, I must think about it seriously."
Although Fang Xuan was puzzled, he didn't ask anything, walked to his grandmother's side to help him, looked at the old general and smiled well-behaved and gentle, and didn't see the unforgiving appearance in the study just now.
Mei Jinrong looked at it and felt magical, turned his head to look at the smile on his father's face, pinched his throat and praised it very gently, and felt even more uncomfortable.
Fang Xuan helped the old lady to leave, on the way back, the old lady always looked at Fang Xuan beside her, Fang Xuan was looking out of the window at the beginning, when she left the Mei Mansion, it was already a little rainy outside, it rarely rained in Fengtian, most of the time it was snowing, even if it rained, there was rarely this foggy feeling, there was an illusion of smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, which suddenly reminded her of Du Xunhe's poem: "The cold winter snow in the north of the country, the spring flowers in the south of the Yangtze River." How can people not linger, the most difficult thing is to stop. The rain in the south of the Yangtze River is dripping with pear blossoms. Just as she was looking at it, the old lady suddenly said: "Simmer, grandma asks you." ”
"Huh? Grandma, you said. ”
"That's the case, if grandma wants you to stay in Nanjing and accompany grandma, what do you think?"
"Okay." Fang Xuan didn't think much about it, and responded happily.
"Okay, when you go home, grandma and your father and mother will tell you to ask your uncle to help you find a school." The old lady sighed, and spoke a lot easier.
"Looking for a school? Why should I look for a school? Fang Xuan was puzzled.
The old lady heard Fang Xuan ask like this, and understood that Fang Xuan was afraid that he did not understand his words.
"Simmering, grandma means, I hope you can stay in Nanjing and live here, Fengtian is like that now, but your family still has a school, according to your father's temperament, you can't let go, and your mother will definitely go back. In the past, I couldn't control her, but Fengtian is so chaotic now, you don't feel at ease when you go back. "It's true that I don't feel at ease, I often listen to the radio, and every time I say that there is "martial law" and "lockdown of the city", the broadcaster often reprimands Zhang Xueliang and others for their inaction, so that they lost Fengtian in just one day, and in less than half a year, the huge three eastern provinces fell into the hands of others and let them ravage. Grief-stricken, resentful and accusatory, so what, but can only vent the dissatisfaction in their hearts, no one can do anything for them, now this chaotic world, the country will not be a country, who can keep whom, but the mud bodhisattva queues up to cross the river, sooner or later.
"Grandma, you let me think about it, I have to think about it." Fang Xuan's voice became lower and lower, and he turned his head to look out the window, how long can the calm here last?
said that she was thinking about it, but it seemed that the matter was settled like this, because, after going back, Mrs. Meng didn't know if she was suffering from the cold that day, and the next day she had a high fever that did not go away, and the illness came like a mountain.
This disease caused the whole family to mess up, and Fang Xuan also saw his cousin who he had never seen before.
