Chapter 299: Head of the House

The lights of the National Teacher's Mansion were flickering, the footsteps were chaotic, there was a panic at a loss, and the long-brewing anxiety finally broke out, and it was extremely sad.

In the main courtyard, the old lady who fainted and woke up first after receiving the news was lying in the hall crying, beating her heart and whimpering. Jin Wei and Yurui sat next to the old lady, each of them grabbed the old man's hand and wept silently. And it was not them who cried the most, but Zhong Yidie.

The changes in the family in the past two years have been earth-shaking, her sisterhood with the Li family was originally false, and the Li family completely opened up for Nan Yueping, and simply tore her face with everyone, but she couldn't be so ruthless. Wu Mei was named Mrs. Donghai and was supported by her wife, she was not envious, but when she found that Wu Mei did not rely on her wife to bully her and the children, her thoughts were unconsciously corrected.

It is impossible for her to go back to her parents' house, and it is impossible for her to fight against the whole family alone, so she should be more peaceful, so she took the initiative to take care of the old lady and sincerely helped Wu Mei take care of this home. Moreover, it did pay off later, the old man sent Ling'er out to study, and Sha'er also got closer to her sisters and was a lot more cheerful. In the days when the old man was ill, although he was worried and worried from time to time, there was no intrigue, and life was peaceful. Seeing that the master's body was not as good as day by day, he thought that he was prepared, but when the bad news came, he still felt that the sky was falling, not so much grief-stricken as he was dazed and afraid of the unknown future.

Zhong Yidie knows very well that Nan Yueya only loves Wu Mei, whether she marries Li Ju or herself, it is the marriage between the old lady and the Zhong family of the Li family, and it has nothing to do with his own emotions. At this age, she has nothing to be unwilling, Nan Yueya gave her a son and a daughter. Hope is all on the two children. Recently, the imperial court has been arguing over whether to retain the position of the great master, and the cabinet headed by the prince is more and more inclined to abolish it, and Jin Wei Yurui's marriage has not been settled for a long time, and the Li family has staked the name of her daughter, and the old lady and the old man begged the queen mother together, but she won a prince Liangdi, and she couldn't think about Sha'er's marriage. And if the national teacher is abolished, the national teacher's mansion will naturally be gone, in case the Nanyue clan becomes a common person. Will Ling Er go out of the way?

Thought that was the worst-case scenario. Who knew that at this juncture, the old man actually passed away. Zhong Yidie realized that the worst thing about a family is not the decline of status, but the loss of the head of the family. Not even a grown man. All that was left was a woman. Since then, there has been no one to rely on. Therefore, how could she not cry out loud, how could she not grieve from the bottom of her heart. I can't wait to go with Nan Yueya.

Nan Yuesha has grown into a daughter who can hold her mother's shoulders, and she can only pat her mother's back with her eyes red like a rabbit. She is seventeen years old, because of her frail and slow development, she still looks like a little girl of fourteen or fifteen, and when her sisters are confused, she doesn't know what to do.

The women in a room, the old, the middle, the young, Wu Mei vomited blood and fell, no one could afford the backbone of the main body of the house, and overheard the servants outside shouting-

"The eldest lady is back! The eldest lady is back! ”

This shout fell into a bright light in the hearts of all the women, the old lady stopped crying, Zhong Yidie stopped crying, Jin Wei, Yurui and Nan Yuesha immediately stood up, and walked to the door at the same time to greet them, and they all thought like this: There is still Nanyue Lansheng in this family!

And when the curtain was lifted, and it was not only Nanyue Lansheng who came in, but also the six princes, not only the old lady and the others found an exit in their grief and despair, but even the maids and servants serving in the house were also relieved.

At this time, the masters didn't have enough time to shed tears, and the sixth prince was the son-in-law of the family, and his appearance meant that there might be one more decision-maker in charge. Of course, they only dare to comfort themselves like this, and it is very difficult to say whether the six princes are willing to take care of this matter. After all, the eldest lady is just happy to get married, although she is a concubine, she is also an empty name, and the sixth prince has been away for two years, and now she is back, and she can't see that the relationship between the husband and wife is good, although it is quite surprising that the two of them come together.

"Eldest sister......" Yurui called Lan Sheng, tears bursting into tears.

Lan Sheng's expression was cold, "What about Dad?" ”

Jin Wei choked up, "In the back room." Aunt Mei ......"

Lan Sheng didn't wait for Jin Wei to finish speaking, and was about to go to the back room.

Lan Sheng...... Lan Sheng" The old lady raised her hand with difficulty, "Come over and ......"

Lan Sheng hesitated for a moment, glanced at Hyun Jinfeng, and saw him nodding before he walked over and held the old lady's hand. This grandmother has always been lukewarm to her, and at the moment it seems that she has to rely on her wholeheartedly, which makes her feel unaccustomed.

"Child, I know I can't stand you......" In fact, they both understood very well in their hearts, the old man said, "but for your mother's sake...... Help your sisters, your daddy...... As soon as I left, there was not even a person in this family who had an idea......"

"Old lady, isn't there me?" Hyun Jinfeng also stepped forward, squatting down and shaking the old lady's hand.

The old lady was flattered and struggled to get up, "How dare you have His Royal Highness Lao Liu?" ”

"Although I am the prince, I am also the eldest son-in-law of this family, I have been in Beiguan for the past two years, and I have not been able to help the family. I have summoned a doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau to confirm the cause of my father-in-law's illness first, and then report it to the imperial court. Hyun Jinfeng began to "fill the hole".

Everyone was just guessing with hope just now, but now they can be relieved in one breath, and at the same time, they secretly wonder that the relationship between the six princes and the eldest lady is not as unfamiliar as the rumors.

"What's so embarrassing?" The old lady thinks a lot, how can there be a prince to handle the affairs of her father-in-law? couldn't help but look at Lan Sheng.

Lan Sheng looked at the old lady, "The old lady allowed him, I was so panicked at this time that I had no idea, I heard that my mother vomited blood?" ”

Sweeping the tomb on this day, so that Jin Wei expected that her mother actually had something to say with her, and there was no opening remark, and she said that she had discussed with her father to pretend to be dead, and stay away from the emperor, maybe she could find a cure for the disease, let her cooperate with the acting, and take care of her mother's affairs.

Lan Sheng felt that it was a battle of will between his father and mother, how could it be so simple to pretend to be dead, and he had to push a lot of trouble onto himself, so he naturally disagreed.

Wu Mei said that it was not impulsive, it was something she had thought of over and over again. It's just that Nan Yueya couldn't let it go, and it wasn't until what the prince did this time made people completely chill that he decided to implement it. Again. Although it was a fraudulent death, Nan Yueya was terminally ill, and if she let it go, she was really not far from death.

And Tong Zhenwu, who lived in the house a few days ago, will also walk with them to find an antidote to the descendants of the Neng clan to maintain their natural ability. He said, although the natural ability of the mixed-race capable person is getting weaker and weaker the more he uses it, but such a rapid decline and early death is likely to be related to the medicine that poisons the three major energy clans, since it is poison, there must be a solution. The dark forces in the imperial capital are the strongest. After the prince's incident. They have already been startled, and the slightest change in them will attract attention, so it is better to stay away first.

Wu Mei Danjue's statement coincided with what Da Da said before he died, taking advantage of the emperor's southern tour. The prince is mediocre. Everyone knows that the condition of the great teacher is not optimistic. The time is ripe to leave. Therefore, whether Lan Sheng agrees or not, he will not change his mind. The reason why she only told SΓΉ Lansheng the truth was that her daughter was unusual. The heart is strong, and secondly, as soon as she and Nan Yueya leave, the family will definitely be in a mess, and there will be external oppression, and Lan Sheng not only has the strength to take on heavy responsibilities, but also has Hyun Jinfeng to rely on. She was relieved.

The old lady was in tears, "I can't think of it...... I didn't expect that this marriage that made me ashamed of my eldest granddaughter would find such a good son-in-law for the family. "It's been a long time to see people's hearts.

"Don't worry, old lady, there is me." Hyun Jinfeng persuaded a few words, asked the maids and servants to help the old lady go back to recuperate, and asked Zhong to take care of the old man's body.

There are two reliable principals of the eldest granddaughter and the sixth prince, the old lady is finally willing to listen to the persuasion, Zhong Yidie is no longer dizzy and crying, and supports each other to leave. Nan Yuesha bravely took care of her grandmother and mother, and also followed.

'Have you informed Brother Ling?' Lan Sheng asked.

Jin Wei and Yurui glanced at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"I'll write a letter." Yurui sniffled, called out her colorful eyes, and ran to the next study.

Jin Wei said, "Yurui blamed herself very much, saying that it would be good if she could see her father's illness." ”

"Silly." Lan Sheng's mouth was unforgiving, "Not to mention that she can't see her family's illness, even if she can see it, her father's physical condition is not a disease, but an exhaustion of heavenly energy, which has lost her life." You can look at the face, know divination, and should be clearer than the jade. ”

Jin Wei nodded, "Yes, I know, but I'm unwilling for my father and grandfather." Two generations are loyal to the Son of Heaven, grandfather, father, never selfish, never hesitated to waste his life, grandfather left early is lucky, but look at the fate of his father, take all the merits but exchange Pingmei for a prince Liangdi, and was humiliated by the prince. The more he talked, the more sad and indignant he became, the death of his father completely subverted the belief of the heavenly daughter, "What the world is born, what the national fortune and society, you can't get a word good for paying your life." ”

"You think well, the Nanyue clan no longer needs to do anything for Darong today, it's time to think more about yourself." Lan Sheng has never been a good lady, even if she marries into the royal family, she has never had the slightest intention of serving the imperial power, and she is happy to spend the money of the national treasury. Because, this treasury has become a mountain of gold for the emperors and high-ranking officials, and they will not want to do practical things for the people. In that case, let her grab the flowers, lest it be a pity to raise a group of fat bellies.

"The imperial doctor is almost here, and the Empress Dowager and Concubine in the palace have sent someone to ask, and there is no movement in the East Palace." Liu Xia's voice came in.

"Jin Wei, you go to the front to receive it, and when I see my father, I will go to see my mother." Lan Sheng said that he went into the back room.

Hyun Jinfeng followed, but said to Jin Wei, "Liu Xia volunteered to help, if there is anything you can discuss with him." ”

Jin Wei stared stunned, bit her lip, and lifted the curtain to go out.

In the inner room, Nan Yueya was lying straight, her face was dead, and she was sick and sick, if it weren't for the slight undulation of the quilt covering her chest, she would be no different from a dead person. Hyun Jinfeng stayed by the curtain, actually listening to the movement outside, providing a release service for the dialogue between the dead and the living.

But Lan Sheng was not in a hurry to talk, as if he was saying to Hyun Jinfeng, and seemed to be talking to himself, "I knew that this was the case, how good it would be to get married to Jin Wei and Liu Xia first, and I had to keep a year's funeral for no reason." ”

Hyun Jinfeng knew that this was a living and a dead person.

Nan Yueya really opened her eyes in shock, fortunately she knew that she was pretending to be a dead person, and lowered her voice, "Who is married to whom?" ”

Lan Sheng didn't answer, pretending to be even more surprised, "Yo, Dad, where are you alive." Crying outside, the old lady almost went with you, did you hear? ”

Nan Yueya learned from Wu Mei that her eldest daughter did not agree with him to cheat death, so she naturally heard the irony in it, and was not angry, "Your grandmother's health is much better than mine, and she will live a hundred years old." Ahem! Although I am pretending to be dead, I am not pretending to be sick, I am terminally ill, do you have to worry about so many days earlier? ”

"Don't dare." She is willful, not unfilial, "It's just that you should discuss it with me first, instead of informing me to clean up the follow-up, and my father and mother will fly away with a light body." Think about it, what if I told you that I decided to elope with someone tomorrow? Will you still be in a good mood? ”

Hyun Jinfeng coughed dryly. When he's dead, what is it?

Nan Yueya snorted coldly, "Originally, I said not to sue you, but your mother believes you very much, and thinks you can help." "I found that my attitude was too cold, and I wanted to ease, but I didn't know how to ease. For this eldest daughter, he has been estranged for too long, and he doesn't know how to get along, and now he has to leave, leaving her with a lot of family affairs, he feels guilty and indebted, but he can't express it.

"I can help and I'm willing to help." She disagreed with this plan because she thought that there might be a lot of trouble in the future, "I also think that in addition to me being credible, Jin Wei is also in charge of the house, she is the eldest daughter of her father." ”

"Jin Wei is the eldest daughter of this family, and for me, you are my eldest daughter." Nan Yueya suddenly said.

Hyun Jinfeng changed her mind in her heart, and felt that it was meaningful, but looking at Lan Sheng's disapproving expression, she knew that she was confused again, "Lan Sheng, usually when my father dies, I have to cry twice." "Although the outhouse is cleared, it is difficult to ensure that there are people with long ears in the yard.

"My father and I are not close, as we all know, crying at this time is fake." After returning to this family for less than a year, she got married, and her father's deepest impression on her stayed at the first sight, with a trace of silver hair and half a pupil, and her momentum was like a dark cloud covering the sun, and even her daughter couldn't recognize the prestige.

Nan Yueya sighed, knowing that the relationship between father and daughter was difficult to repair in a few words, but said, "After I leave with your mother, you will be bothered by the affairs of the family." ”

In the face of this obvious trust, Lan Sheng was uncomfortable, and he agreed. can still be more comfortable with Wu Mei, after all, they have been together for a long time, they can forget that they are reborn, and they really become their own mothers in their hearts, but Nan Yueya is too strange, there is no memory of her father, and there is no experience of getting along later, every time the father and daughter meet, a bunch of people are present, and they have never felt father's love at all.

There were footsteps and talking in the outhouse, Hyun Jinfeng made a quiet gesture, walked quickly to Lan Sheng, and said in his ear, "Even if you don't kiss, in the end, your biological father will pass away, and you will have red eyes if you can't cry." He pressed her head between his shoulders lightly, "Think of something that will make you cry, so that no one can see anything." ”

Lan Sheng naturally did not struggle, and leaned on half of his face, leaning on his broad shoulders, which were much more reliable than his master's face, and sighed. (To be continued......)
