Chapter 381: Old Lady
Fang Ziqing and Dong Yuexi walked in, although they already knew that Fang Jinyan was having dinner in the old lady's room, and they also knew that the old lady did not let this grandson leave as soon as they finished eating, they were very curious and wanted to come over to have a look, anyway, they had to come over every morning and evening to say goodbye, so this excuse was nothing, and it would not arouse suspicion, but when they entered the door, they were still really startled by the scene in front of them, the expressions of the two people were not good-looking, one was stunned, the other was stunned!
Fang Jinyan still got up slightly and said softly: "My daughter asks her father and mother to say goodbye." ”
Fang Ziqing and Dong Yuexi didn't take care of this child, and they weren't going to meet, because they heard the doctor at home say that the fourth lady is just a year's life, and now her life is not long, it doesn't matter if she doesn't see this disaster star, anyway, as soon as her mother dies, she must leave, because this family can't accommodate her!
The two stepped forward, and when they didn't hear Fang Jinyan speak, they bowed down to give the old lady a salute.
The old lady was a little unhappy, and thought to herself, "Isn't your measure as good as that of a thirteen-year-old child?" People still know that they don't embarrass you, why don't you know how to pretend in front of people, after all, you are still elders!
Fang Jinyan knew that this would be the result, and she was not surprised, but she seemed to be very aggrieved, tears were rolling in her eyes, but she pretended not to dare to let the old lady see it, and sat there with her head bowed and silent.
"You guys have also come to peace, go back, I'm so tired that I don't want to talk to you!" The old lady's words were clearly said with emotion, what does it mean that I don't want to talk to you. Who are you, and are you not your own sons and daughters-in-law? Why did this girl only see you, you have been two hours, and you don't want to talk to your son and daughter-in-law who get along day and night?
Fang Ziqing was very surprised. I don't know where I offended my mother, could it be that this little scourge said something bad about himself? It's impossible, no matter how confused the mother is, she has only seen this child for less than a day, and what can this thirteen-year-old girl say?
Dong Yuexi was also secretly surprised, but it was inconvenient to show it, seeing that her husband seemed to have something to say. Hurriedly and quietly tugged at his sleeve, and said respectfully: "Since my mother is tired, then we will go back." I'll come back tomorrow morning to say hello. After saying that, he bent down and saluted, and looked at Fang Jinyan before going out, and saw that she was still hanging her head, like a child who had done something wrong. I snorted disdainfully. Walking out of the door, Fang Ziqing saw that his mother had no intention of staying, and it was boring to stay by himself, so he also walked out.
When the old lady saw that they were all gone, she said to Fang Jinyan: "Okay, Yan'er, they are all gone, don't be afraid!" ”
Who would have thought that when Fang Jinyan raised his head, he was already in tears. The old lady was very surprised, and quickly wiped away her tears with her own handkerchief. said: "Yan'er, don't be sad, I will tell your father well, what fortune tellers and fortune tellers, but there are still a few years before you get out of the cabinet, and you are not always around when you get married, what else is there to taboo." ”
Fang Jinyan gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Grandma, seeing that my father and mother are in good health, Yan'er has no other extravagant hopes, they are good, Yan'er is no matter how bitter it is, it is worth it." ”
"Good boy!" The old lady was moved to hold Fang Jinyan in her arms, and couldn't help but burst into tears, which made Mother Yang on the side feel sad when she saw it.
After taking it in the old lady's room for half an hour, Fang Jinyan saw that the old lady was really sleepy, so she got up to say goodbye, and Mother Yang personally sent Fang Jinyan to the door to find two slaves who were in charge of the lamp and gave instructions, and then sent Fang Jinyan out respectfully.
Out of the front yard and in the back house, Fang Jinyan exhaled softly, and then stretched a long stretch, and Yuzhu, who accompanied him behind him, sent away the minions in the front yard, and walked behind Fang Jinyan with the lamp.
"Miss, I just heard from the girl below the old lady that the old lady and the eldest lady are so angry that they can't speak!"
Fang Jinyan smiled coldly, didn't answer, but asked, "When you were waiting for me at the old lady's place, did you see anyone else?" ”
Yuzhu didn't know what Fang Jinyan meant, so he could only answer honestly: "Except for the lord and the eldest lady, no one else has ever come." ”
Fang Jinyan sneered: "Isn't it true that every night in each room has to greet the old lady?" ”
After hearing this, Yuzhu didn't speak, Fang Jinyan said: "Probably because I was afraid that I would be unlucky, so I didn't dare to come." ”
Yuzhu didn't dare to speak, in fact, she knew that Fang Jinyan was such a smart person, and she would have guessed it a long time ago if she didn't say it.
"Miss, don't be angry, doesn't the old lady look at you differently? And let Mother Yang send a lot of Lin Luo silk to the third lady's room, let's go and have a look. ”
Fang Jinyan knew that tonight's play was a temporary success, but the old lady knew that it was not easy to bluff her, and sometimes she really had to invest a lot of emotion into it.
"Let's go, let's go see if Yunduo's treatment for my mother has any results!" With that, the two of them walked towards their mother's room.
It was probably the first night that the old lady's interest was very high, so Fang Jinyan was late with her, and she was in a good mood, no one had been talking and chatting with her like this for a long time, she was indeed very happy, so she got up nearly an hour later than usual.
The girl who was waiting on the side waited for the old lady to finish dressing and washing, and then prepared for breakfast, Mother Yang on the side combed the old lady's hair, and saw that the old lady looked at the top sent by Fang Jinyan yesterday, and knew the old lady's thoughts, so she said: "Although the stitches are not very fine, fortunately, the fourth lady's intention is there." ”
"That's it, just come back, you can't give this girl too much face, let's use yesterday's." After the old lady finished speaking, she looked at the top embroidered with plum blossoms again, and turned her eyes away.
After cleaning up, just as she was about to eat, a girl came in and said, "Old lady, the fourth lady has been waiting in the concierge for more than an hour, look ......?"
Mother Yang seemed to think about it, patted her forehead, and said, "Look at the old slave's memory, the fourth lady has indeed been here for a long time, saying that she is asking the old lady to say goodbye." ”
The girl continued: "The soy milk and bean curd that the fourth lady personally grinded for the old lady, is it now for the old lady to taste, or is it ......?"
When the old lady heard this, she frowned, but it was the first night when she talked about this girl's affairs in the country, and she couldn't help but ask a few more words when she was curious about how this child could still work like this, thinking that this child had a heart in mind and thought that she wanted to eat.
Mother Yang said: "Our small kitchen has nothing, where do we need the fourth lady to get up early in the morning and grind it herself!" After speaking, he looked at the old lady and showed it.
"Since it's her heart, then I'll taste it, what about the child?" The old lady asked.
"I'm waiting at the door, it's all ready, even the appetizers are prepared by Miss Fourth herself." The girl said.
"Okay, then let's pass it on quickly, this weather is cold and fast, be careful that the old lady is uncomfortable eating." Yang's mother said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a woman in a pale pink dress walk in with a delicate tray in her hand.
"Say hello to the old lady." Fang Jinyan held the plate and knelt down respectfully like yesterday, and said softly.
"Why didn't you call grandma today?" The old lady said with a smile.
The girl on the side saw that Mother Yang gave her a look, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the tray in Fang Jinyan's hand.
Fang Jinyan put his hands on the ground and kowtowed to the old lady again, and said: "I went back last night and told my mother about chatting with the old lady, and my mother blamed herself for not teaching her grandson these matters beforehand. ”
In fact, even if Situ Duruo didn't talk about it, Fang Jinyan knew these rules, after all, she had already remembered when she left this house. But she deliberately forgot everything, everything seems to need to be mentioned by others, I don't know, you can't blame me, who told you to throw me so far away alone? The reason why she said this was nothing more than two purposes, one was to let the old lady know that her mother was an understanding person, and the other was to verify the results of the first night.
The old lady motioned for Fang Jinyan to get up, Fang Jinyan quickly held the old lady's hand, helped her to the dining table and sat down, and took the bowl in the girl's hand and gave the old lady a bowl of soy milk.
The old lady looked at Fang Jinyan's skillful and swift movements, and said with a smile: "Don't wait in the gatehouse in the future, this day is not as southern as you, you can't stand the cold, come in and sit and wait when you come in the future, you know?" ”
Fang Jinyan agreed in a low voice, and then put some emerald green dishes on the old lady's plate.
The old lady took a sip of soy milk from the bowl and looked at Fang Jinyan, her expression seemed to be a little puzzled.
Fang Jinyan understood what the old lady meant, and said: "I know that the old lady doesn't sleep very well on weekdays, and has been taking calming medicine, and the grandson is good at making an opinion, adding some barley and red dates to this soy milk, I don't know the taste, the old lady is still used to eating?" ”
The old lady smiled, her smile contained relief and intimacy, she took another sip, took a mouthful of the dish and put it in her mouth, and pointed to the dish with her chopsticks again, this time she was even more surprised.
Mother Yang explained: "Early in the morning, Miss Fourth came to ask in person, saying that the old lady has always had a bad appetite, but there are any small dishes that she likes to eat very much, and the old slave said, there are yes, but some wild vegetables on the mountain, but they are not easy to pick in this season, who would have thought that Miss Fourth had the heart to pick them." ”
"Yan'er, grandma knows that you are a good child, but you should have a good rest when you come back, you see that your body is so thin and thin, when Mother Yang turned around, Dr. Zhang came to prescribe medicine for my pulse, and asked him to give Yan'er a look together." Yang's mother immediately responded.
The old lady took Fang Jinyan's hand and asked her to sit beside her, looked at Fang Jinyan lovingly, and said: "In the future, when we are in the family, we will still call me grandma, no one has ever called me like this, I don't want any courtesy, others can call me old lady, but you have to call me grandma, you know?"
