The little maid at the door of Cheng's mansion had already received Mrs. Cheng's orders, and now when he saw the old man's clothes and appearance, as well as the sign on the carriage, he immediately greeted him respectfully.

"I've seen Old Lady Wei! Our old lady knows that you are coming today, and specially ordered the little one to welcome you here! Inside please! ”

Old lady Wei was worried all the way, and now when she saw the little guy with a smiling face, her heart that had been nervous all the way gradually relaxed by two points, and she bowed slightly, "There is little brother Lao!" ”

As instructed, the little servant respectfully led Mrs. Wei to the front hall, and the old lady Cheng had already greeted her in the middle of the hall.

Old Mrs. Wei was flattered, and said a few words of greeting excitedly, and then sat down with Mrs. Cheng. Seeing that the girl she had fallen in love with in her early years is now full of silver hair, Old Lady Wei's heart is indescribably melancholy.

"If it weren't for the day before yesterday, I heard that you had entered Chang'an, and the old man would have thought that there would be no day to meet the old lady in this life!"

Mrs. Cheng nodded in agreement, "Yes, I haven't seen each other for more than thirty years, and I didn't expect that goodbye would be for my children and grandchildren." ”

When it came to her children and grandchildren, Old Lady Wei was a little embarrassed, took a sip of tea from her teacup, and then considered her words, "I received your letter some time ago, and the old man called his grandson to ask him if he was close to me, and the matter between him and my granddaughter was purely misinformation, and he was just a simple brother and sister to Fang'er, and nothing else. I hope the old lady is not strange. ”

Old Madam Cheng only smiled faintly when she heard this, "Old lady Wei thinks too much, no matter how you say it, it's all a family matter of the Wei family, what's so strange about me as an old woman." If you want me to see, one of their cousins and a cousin are a good match, if it can be done, it will be a joy and a joy, and it is also a good thing to say! ”

As soon as Old Lady Wei heard this, her face instantly changed several times, "Old Madam Cheng said with a smile, the Wei and Cheng families had a marriage contract many years ago, how could my Wei family do such a disobedient thing?" ”

Old Madam Cheng shook her head, "Eh, that's a bad word!" The marriage contract is dead, people are alive, we also have to learn to be flexible, right? Now that the matter of your grandson and granddaughter has long been spread throughout Chang'an, if your grandson has no intention of being male or female to Miss Du, I'm afraid few people can believe it, right? Even if your granddaughter is telling the truth, what about your granddaughter? What does she think, do you know? ”

Seeing that Old Madam Wei wanted to explain, Old Madam Cheng raised her hand and swallowed it back instantly.

"Old lady Wei has been frank all his life, have you ever seen a few brothers in Chang'an City who can accompany my little sister to visit the fat powder shop and jewelry building? How many cousins not only pull and pull with their cousins in front of everyone, but also call their cousins by their names in public? I'm afraid this kind of behavior is beyond the love of brother and sister, right? ”

When Old Lady Wei heard this, her old face turned red when she was already angry, but she had to explain.

"Old lady, those are rumors in the market! The rumors are not credible! ”

Mrs. Cheng picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, put it down unhurriedly, and sneered: "Rumors? The old woman had heard a few words that were different from Wei Lao's words. ”

Old Lady Wei knew that it must not be a good word, but he couldn't say it or not listen, so he patiently pretended to be calm, "Old lady, it's okay to say it!" ”

Of course, if you want to listen to it, there will be more ugly ones, I'm afraid that the old man won't be able to stand it.

At this age, he is the only living playmate since he was a child, even if Mrs. Cheng doesn't miss anything else, she still has to remember the friendship when she was a child and went down to the river to fish together!

Old Lady Wei wanted to explain, but she was choked by this sentence and had to shut up.

Seeing that what she said was almost over, Mrs. Cheng personally poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Wei and handed it over, and sighed: "Brother Wei, now that you and I are old, the words we say don't have much weight!" Why do you cling to this, so that you have to be them? Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, so why not let them go? ”

When Mrs. Wei heard the word "Brother Wei", her heart trembled, and she trembled and took the teacup and didn't drink it for a long time.

I remember that back then, when he was young, he wanted to ask to marry her who was still a girl, but she called him "Brother Wei" first, and in a blink of an eye, he ruthlessly rejected him who was still immersed in joy. Later, she married a wife, and finally used a little trick to ask for the opportunity for the two families to become in-laws, he looked forward to it, and the two families gave birth to sons! How? Can't you let a few boys worship the trick? Fortunately, Mrs. Cheng later had something to say, saying that the marriage contract could be extended to his grandson's generation, and he had hope. Now that she has finally lived to be able to watch her grandson marry her granddaughter, there are such rumors from those unscrupulous descendants! How can he be willing to wait for this all his life?

Her sentence "Brother Wei" made him a little unbearable!

Mrs. Cheng saw him holding the teacup and was silent for a long time, and she felt a little unbearable in her heart. Turning his head to Lan Mo, Lan Mo understood, and quickly took a box on the side.

"I remember when you were a child, you loved to eat the pastries sold in Meixian County, and this time I came to Chang'an to bring you one. It's still the original shop, but now the shopkeeper is the great-grandson of the old shopkeeper in the early years. You take it back and taste it to see if it's still the taste you remember from your childhood. ”

Old Lady Wei wanted to refuse when she saw the box for the first time, but when she saw that she personally handed it to him, she opened the box like a ghost.

Sure enough, as the old lady said, there were a lot of pastries and preserved fruits that I had eaten when I was a teenager. Old Lady Wei tentatively picked up a piece and tasted it, and her eyes couldn't help but get mist.

Mrs. Cheng also had some emotion when she saw this!

"In the future, I will live in Chang'an, if Brother Wei has nothing to do, you can take the time to come and sit with me. At our age, what obsession can't be resolved? ”

Old Lady Wei swallowed the pastry in his mouth with difficulty, bitter in his heart, and still smiled reluctantly: "Sure enough, it is still the taste of childhood!" Mrs. Cheng's heart is old and decrepit! In the future, if you have nothing to do, you will come over and ask for a cup of tea! ”

On the way back, Mrs. Wei touched the box full of pastries and preserved fruits, and her heart was extremely bitter.

It was filled with all the things he had bought for her back then to make her happy. It's just that they were all returned later. I remember that when we met after that, he was worried that he would lose face in front of her, and he forced his face to say that what he bought there was what he wanted to eat.

Now that I think about it, I was so stupid back then! No wonder she rejected it for the rest of her life!

Now, decades later, she still remembers the things that were in the box.

Did she understand his unspeakable heart?

The carriage trembled all the way, and the old lady Wei was also melancholy all the way!

It's just that I never won a fight with her when I was a child, and now that I'm at such an age, it doesn't matter if I win or lose!

Besides, losing to her, Ben is nothing! Let her go! It's a big deal that I have time to sit and drink more cups of tea in the future!

If you say you don't regret it, it's false. After all, he has been stubborn all his life, and his half-life wish has been lost. But so what? If you want to blame, blame the Wei family's children and grandchildren for not being blessed!

As for the unfilial grandson, he doesn't care! Let him go! As long as you don't beat up the singles, which daughter you marry, won't all the children born in the future have to call yourself great-grandfather?

Thinking about this, the old man's heart that had been melancholy all the way finally got some comfort!
