When I got home, I threw myself into Shi Tong's arms and kept saying sorry, he hugged me steadily, and after a while, he gently kissed my hair and said, "I'm sorry for you." ”
I raised my head violently and looked at him, his calm face also had pain written on it, I hugged him tightly again, and kept saying sorry again, yes, sorry, sorry I only felt sorry for myself, I didn't think about it from his position at all, his pain was not only the loss of the child, but more importantly, he thought he was hurting me, if it wasn't for Liniang and them, Kong Ma would not have made this decision, if he didn't bring back Kong Ma, if there was no if there was no ...... We talked a lot that day, and it seemed that we had finished saying all the sorry for the rest of our lives, and finally agreed that we would never say sorry again.
The next day I followed him back to the martial arts, the old man was really sick, but he seemed to be in good spirits, maybe because he saw Shiju, and knew that Shiju had already married, and the offspring was expected to have a dose of boost. I don't know if he will die, maybe this is the sorrow of the little people, for history, they are dispensable people, not even a name left, in this anxiety, life is still going on, Shi Tong saw that my spirit was better, so he proposed to take the children to climb the mountain together.
Shi Tong took me and three children to climb the mountain to look far away, maybe it was not a good activity for several months, from the halfway up the mountain, Shi Tong has been supporting me, the children ran before and after, protected by several strong old mothers, the silent hill seems to have been woken up by us, knowing that there is nothing wrong with the children, I and Shi Tong seem to have the leisure to walk and chat, suddenly saw a beautiful scenery, I stopped, this is halfway up the mountain, a small small flower that does not know the light is blooming quietly, standing in front of the flower, you can see a piece of fertile field in the distance, People's hearts are full of peace.
"Like it?"
"Shall we buy this mountain land?" I looked at him.
"Good!" He didn't even ask why, it seemed like a really spoiled parent, as long as I wanted.
"Don't ask why?"
"Why?" He is as good as a stream.
"Be a cemetery, in the future when I die, you bury me here, leave your own place by my side, I don't allow you to be buried in the ancestral grave of the martial arts, I want to watch the fireworks in this world quietly here with you."
"Good!" He hugged me tightly and nodded solemnly.
"If you die in front of me, I will also bury you here, leave me a place next to you, and then I will live well, and when the day comes, let Mei Niang put me next to you, and you will not think I am old at that time."
"Okay."
"I will buy another piece of land near here, and I will build a few houses, and when I die, you will live in that house for a year; If you are gone, I will accompany you for the first year, and I will come back to accompany you every year after that. Until I moved in. ”
"It's too cold for the New Year, come and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with me! Admire the moon with me. Tell me how you have been this year and if the children have bullied you. ”
I unconsciously burst into tears again, buried my head in his arms, and didn't want him to see the tears, he patted me gently.
"What a good couple they are!" A loud voice sounded behind me, I wiped away my tears before turning back, in front of me was a middle-aged Taoist priest, looking quite a bit of fairy wind bones, I suddenly thought of the legend, a little frightened, just want to know where the children are, the three children as if telepathically, all of a sudden jumped back.
"Master Yuan! Madam, this is His Majesty's Immortal Master Yuan Tiangang Yuan Daochang. Shi Tong was obviously very happy, and hurriedly introduced me, I bowed, and he continued: "The master came just in time, Madame just wanted to buy this place as a place to bury bones, and the master will see if it is okay." ”
"Madame is really a good eye, this ground is not suitable for a hundred years of yin and yang, but the trend of the mountains is gradually slowing down, there are good fields and fireworks in front of it, and the popularity is prosperous and the yin is rushing, and it is still a blessed land for the descendants of prosperity."
"Really?" Shi Tong's eyes lit up, and I sighed.
"Xianggong, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, no matter how good this place is, it is difficult to protect the children and grandchildren, let's find another place."
"Madame is wise, and the poor way is impressed." He stared straight at me.
"Immortal Master Miao Zan, the concubine is just an ignorant woman, don't disturb the immortal master's travels." I wanted to pull them away, I knew I couldn't escape, but I still wanted the day to come later.
"Mrs. is blessed with a long life, and she is not talented, dare to ask Mrs. why she chose such a place for a hundred years?"
"Really? Is my wife really blessed with a long life? Shi Tong refused to leave at this time, he knew Yuan Tiangang's reputation, and he had the heart to tell fortunes but didn't dare to speak, since he said it at this time, he immediately struck while the iron was hot.
"The blessing of Mrs. Zun is rare in the world, although she is young and widowed, but the luck of her children and grandchildren can be described as a rare precious life. These three are the young ladies of the house? He finally set his sights on the children, Liniang hid in my arms, I wanted to pull Mei Niang, but Mei Niang greeted him and let him look at him, Qiang Er was too lazy to pay attention to us picking flowers on the side. Yuan Tiangang took a step back violently, his face was pale, and after a while, he looked up at Shi Tong, Shi Tong's face was not good at this time, just now Yuan Tiangang's sentence of being young and widowed made his heart like a knife, but he still had a trace of hope.
Yuan Tiangang hesitated for a moment and turned to me, "Madam, let's settle down here for a leisurely and elegant place!" If Mrs. wants to go against the sky, it is just a mantis arm as a car. Alas! He let out a long sigh.
I knelt down, and he was stunned and turned sideways to avoid it, "Madame! ”
I didn't say anything, kowtowed, and after a while, he stopped me, knelt in front of me, and thought for a while: "The old Tao that Madame is asking for knows, the things of heaven cannot be said, the old way is clear, and the old way will not do things against the sky." ”
I cried loudly, Yuan Tiangang let out a long sigh and drifted away, he knew what I was asking him for, I just begged him not to follow what was said in the book and on TV, just run to tell Li Shimin what to say, 'Destroy Li Tang and Wu'. He said that the way of heaven cannot be violated, so it is best to let it go.
My father-in-law finally left, Shi Tong and I tried our best to organize a big funeral for the old man, although Datang did not have a system of abiding by the system, but because of Yuan Tiangang's matter, Shi Tong did not have the heart to take office, and wrote an excerpt saying that his father lost his mother and wanted to resign and return to the country. was beaten back by Li Shimin, gave him a few more months of vacation, and was reappointed as the governor of Jingzhou. He also had no intention of pleading, since the incident of Yuan Tiangang, he seemed very angry, but he never asked me why, he tried to bear it alone.
Finally, the Wu family gathered together, and the old man in the clan suddenly mentioned that the old man had no grandson and filial piety was always incomplete, Mei Niang's face immediately darkened and glared at the man, and the old lady began to cry again. I sighed, and it seemed like I couldn't hide from it. Shi Tong put down his chopsticks and thought for a while: "Seventh Master, I want to pick a boy among the children of the martial family." ”
Everyone was stunned, Shi Tong glanced at me and smiled slightly, "I just remembered that the Wu family has so many rooms, and there are many orphans, as a member of the Wu family, you should pay the responsibility, it is all the blood of the Wu family, you say yes!" He looked at the patriarch. The seventh master was stunned for a moment and looked at the old lady.
The old lady remained silent and bowed her head to wipe away her tears. I shook my head at Shi Tong, he squeezed my hand, and insisted on looking at the seventh master, he nodded, "Okay! I'm going to look for it, it's too young to bring, but it's okay to be a year old or two? ”
"No, Mrs. is too weak to take care of the child after giving birth, so she can find an older one, eleven or twelve years old." He seemed to have thought it through and spoke clearly and unambiguously.
The seventh master thought for a while, "Eleven or twelve years old is a coincidence, a few days ago, your tenth master's little daughter-in-law was gone, you also know that the tenth master's little daughter-in-law was gone within a few years of marriage, and now the little daughter-in-law is gone, leaving two sons, and the family is so poor." The eldest and second eldest of the Tenth Master family brought the children to me, saying that they were not capable of raising them, and asked me to give them food. But they were two children, twelve and nine. ”
"Two?" He hesitated, looked back at me, I smiled, one is raising, two is bringing, you can't just have one without the other. I nodded, and he nodded.
"Then you'll send someone to bring the child to me later." He didn't dare to say it to death, and thought for a moment, "Is there anything else?" ”
"Eldest nephew, my family has, my grandson is exactly eleven or twelve years old, and my four grandsons are there!" One person jumped out, after he finished speaking, the others also jumped out, chattering to stuff the child here, I smiled and looked at the seventh master.
"Just those two kids! There is no father or mother, and there is no shortage of these two pairs of chopsticks at home. ”
Shi Tong also nodded when he saw this form, it seemed that he could only ask for those two at this time.
'Alas! I heard a long sigh from my mother-in-law, and I gently hugged her, and she didn't look at me, and we snuggled quietly.
