The snow was full of snow, and the horses driving the car spewed out clouds of white gas from their mouths and noses.

The streets were deserted than usual, and the hawkers could not stand the cold, and the cries of the hawkers seemed weak.

Bao sat in the car and sank like water, and Wei Aluan and Wei Yining, sisters and brothers, sat in another car and did not share the car with her.

Bao's heart was irritable for a while, and she couldn't tell whether this irritability came from Zhong Ye's rude threat or Wei Hongan's face that looked too similar to Wei Zongfeng.

Or both.

Bao is only in her forties, but the storms she has experienced are not small, she has survived one catastrophe after another, and it stands to reason that she should be tempered into steel.

But those ups and downs are like a double-edged sword, making the armor she wears harder and harder, but her heart is full of holes.

Bao didn't tell anyone, but she woke up in the middle of the night and felt like she was alone.

It's just that these will be covered up by her very well at dawn, and to the outside she is still the graceful, luxurious, calm and dignified duchess.

The carriage stopped in front of the Zhiyong Mansion in the snow, and the housekeeper who guarded the door came up early to help the coachman hold the horse.

The pedals were put away, and the maids got out of the car first, and then went to support the masters.

Wei Aluan and Wei Yining took Wei Hongan's hand left and right and walked inside, and met the panting Ruyi halfway, and when they saw Wei Aluan, they couldn't help crying: "Mrs. Gu, where have you been?!" Call me easy to find! ”

Wei Aluan immediately panicked when he saw her like this, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the old lady?!" ”

Ruyi stomped her feet and said, "The old lady just now suddenly said that she was going to explain the aftermath and told you all to pass." I went everywhere and said you were all out of the door. I'm so anxious! ”

"Don't panic, let's go over!" Wei Aluan hurriedly said, "Don't change your clothes, let's go directly to the old lady's house!" ”

When they arrived at Mrs. Zhu's side, several people took off their coats and roasted them in front of the smoker, for fear that the cold would blow the old lady.

There was a soft satin curtain hanging in the middle, and Chun Tao lifted the curtain, and several mermaids entered.

Mrs. Zhu was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, the window lattice shining on her face through a ray of skylight, her cheeks collapsed badly, and she looked old.

Wei Yining stepped forward and whispered in the old lady's ear, "Grandmother, do you want to eat something?" ”

Mrs. Zhu slowly opened her eyes, held Wei Yining's hand, and said, "You came just in time, I asked Ruyi to prepare your dowry, and put it in the two cabinets behind the screen." There are a lot of things in it that are my favorite, and I don't want to worry about others. ”

Wei Yining's tears swirled in her eyes, the old lady had always been so good to her, and she didn't forget to help her save things at this time.

Wei Aluan heard this, and quickly hugged Guanyin to the old lady's bed, and said, "Mother, you will live a long life!" Look at this kid! Are you still willing to close your eyes?! ”

Mrs. Zhu already had a mortal heart, but when she saw Wei Hongan, her originally dull eyes lit up suddenly.

hugged him and looked left and right, and as if he didn't believe it, he trembled and touched Wei Hongan's jade carving-like cheek.

"Whose family is this child?" Mrs. Zhu's voice also trembled violently, but she refused to let go of the hand holding Wei Hongan.

"Old lady, don't ask who this child is, you only say who he looks like?" Seeing his mother like this, Wei Aluan knew that his method had worked.

"He looks like Zong Feng!" Mrs. Zhu couldn't help crying when she mentioned her son who died young.

This is the lost younger brother Hong'an, and now he found it by chance, Wei Aluan said: "I was also startled when I saw this child, and my heart said how similar to Zong Feng." ”

"Okay, good," Mrs. Zhu looked at Wei Hongan and nodded: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”

Wei Yining reminded his younger brother from the side: "Guanyin Bao, kowtow to the old lady quickly." ”

"I remember you said that his nickname was Guanyin Bao," Mrs. Zhu said with a smile, "What a bodhisattva blessing!" That's a good name! ”

Guanyin Bao knelt down and kowtowed to his grandmother, and Mrs. Zhu liked him so much that she asked him to sit on the edge of her bed, and asked Ruyi to catch fruit for him to eat. A pair of old eyes did not leave Guanyin for a moment, for fear that the child would disappear in the blink of an eye.

"Old lady, this is freshly boiled japonica rice porridge, why don't you use some." Bao stepped forward and said, "With a few light side dishes, they are all easy to restrain themselves." ”

It turned out that Bao felt that he couldn't interject before, so he went to the kitchen and ordered someone to prepare breakfast for Mrs. Zhu.

"I'm really hungry now," said Mrs. Zhu, "it's hard for you all to be so filial!" ”

For a while, Mrs. Zhu had breakfast, and it happened that Zhou Zhaochen came to ask for a pulse.

It was not good to leave too many people in the house, so Wei Aluan took Wei Yining's sister and brother out first.

When Dr. Zhou saw it, Wei Aluan asked outside: "How is the old lady's pulse now?" ”

Zhou Zhaochen stroked his beard and said: "The pulse looks a little better than before, but it is not obvious. However, I see that the old lady's spirit is much better than before, and if she can continue like this, she will be cured in only a few days. ”

Wei Aluan laughed all over his face when he heard this, and folded his hands and said, "Thank God! The Bodhisattva has appeared! ”

Zhou Zhaochen wrote another prescription and said: "Whether you can take these medicines or not, it all depends on the old lady's mood." ”

After sending the doctor away, Mrs. Zhu screamed in the house where Hong'an went, and everyone hurriedly hugged Guanyin to protect him.

Mrs. Zhu saw it and hugged her, and asked Ruyi to quickly open the bedside cabinet, find a piece of fine phoenix blood jade from it, and put it on for him with her own hands.

said: "Grandmother is so old and confused, she forgot to give you a greeting gift." ”

Guanyin Bao wanted to kneel down to thank him, but Mrs. Zhu did not allow him to kneel, saying: "In the future, you must not give so many courtesies in front of me, and the good children will be detained!" ”

Wei Yining said with a smile: "Grandmother is too spoiled by him, and he doesn't even understand the rules after a long time." ”

Mrs. Zhu said disapprovingly: "No, this kid is a sensible person at first glance, and he will be spoiled wherever he goes." ”

And he said, "Now that the weather is so cold, you are not allowed to go anywhere, so you can just live in the warm pavilion of my house." ”

"Grandmother, he has to study every morning and evening," Wei Yining said, "It will make you sleep badly." ”

"Oops! He was only a child, so he taught him to read and write. Mrs. Zhu was not happy when she heard this: "Which damn idea is this?" Grinding children like this! As I say, they all set those things on fire! It's never too late to learn when you're 10 years old. ”

Wei Aluan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "This child is already a child, and he will take the Xiucai exam in two years, but your old man will let him give up halfway?" ”

"My dear! Don't you really be the reincarnation of a boy in front of the Bodhisattva! Mrs. Zhu was surprised and held Guanyin Bao's little face and said, "God has opened his eyes and sent me such a live treasure." ”
