Chapter 514: Trade-offs
Chapter 514: The Trade-Off (Page 1/1)
It's not yet the moon, but the night wind is already very cold, Rao is Xu is wrapped in a snow coat, and he still feels that the cold is drilling straight into his body.
She could only shrink her neck and quicken her pace.
Mama Shen lit the lantern and kept reminding Xu to watch out for her feet.
Xu opened her mouth, and all she exhaled was white gas, she smiled, and said, "You see, my body and bones are still much better, cold to cold, not to the point where I can't bear it." ”
"In the past two years, I have been treated by Dr. Wutai, and it is still very effective." Mama Shen echoed.
"Yes," Xu smiled bitterly, "so many medicinal materials, after all, they are not wasted." I know this body, if I don't advance, I will retreat, if it is not for the help of my little grandfather, now in this season, I am afraid that I can only hide in the house, and then a year will not be a year. ”
Mama Shen didn't stop, but she had some doubts in her heart, not knowing why Xu suddenly talked about this.
Xu Shi still took care of himself, and said: "From this point of view, the old lady asked me to come back to Beijing for my own good, if I stay in the cold north, I will be more and more unbearable." ”
Mama Shen raised her eyes to look at Xu, and the deeper the doubts in her heart.
Although she is an old servant, she still has incomprehension and ambiguity about the old things back then.
Xu's position in the general's mansion is a little embarrassing.
In addition to looking at the long room, Mrs. Tian is almost the same to the other three rooms, regardless of the concubine, and it is precisely because of this similarity that people feel that the old lady is closer to Gu Zhize, the second son of the concubine, than to the two biological younger sons.
As for the grandchildren, the old lady is really a bowl of water for the remaining three rooms.
Mama Shen understands Gu Yunjin's fear of the old lady when she was a child, Mrs. Tian is upright and rigid, not the image of the old man that children will like, her temper is naturally indifferent to Xu's daughter-in-law.
The old lady was serious, Xu was respectful, and she was originally quite stable, but soon after Gu Zhiyu's death, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law suddenly became tense.
Mama Shen only remembered that in the afternoon of that day, Xu was called by the old lady, and the two talked behind closed doors for more than two hours, Xu came out with red eyes, and decided to take Gu Yunqi and Gu Yunjin back to the capital that night.
Mama Shen was taken aback, and went to the old lady's yard to inquire, only to say that the old lady scolded Xu's head, and no one was in the house, and the scolding was so powerful that even the yard could hear it.
Xu's iron heart wanted to leave, Mrs. Tian didn't stop her, let alone ignore her wanting to take the child away, Mama Shen always felt that something was strange, and turned her head to Shan to listen to the tone, wanting Shan to make a conciliation, but the long room did not flow this water.
From the trouble, to the simple division of the industry, and finally packed up the things and set off, which was only five days.
It is said that in this situation, Xu should have countless complaints about the old lady, but according to Shen's opinion, she has never read indignation in Xu in these years.
Mama Shen always thought that Xu was peaceful by nature, and even if she turned her face with her mother-in-law, she would not accuse or blame the other party, but listening to Xu's words at this time, she tasted something different.
Xu's feelings for the old lady are not so much not strange, but grateful.
Mama Shen hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "Madam, what did you talk about with the old lady back then?" Why did you suddenly want to go back to Beijing? ”
Xu did not avoid this question, but smiled lightly: "I actually don't want to come back, you know, I'm not close to my mother's family, what am I going to do when I come back?"
It's just that the old lady repeatedly told me that people have to make trade-offs in this life.
She said, 'The horse of Seon, you know whether it is a blessing or not,' and I did not understand her at the time, but I did as she said.
Thinking about it today, I have some understanding, so I also want to say this sentence to my sister-in-law. ”
The answer is yes, but there is no head and no brain, Shen Mama looked inexplicable, and if she had to listen to Xu's explanation a few more words, she had already arrived outside the long room.
As soon as the Xu family entered, he met Gu Yunyan who came out of Shan's house.
Gu Yunyan's expression was very solemn, his eyebrows were tightly locked, and when he saw the Xu family, he was quite surprised, and said, "Why did my aunt come over at this time?" ”
Xu said: "Yun Jingang told me that she would go to the north with you, and the little grandfather also agreed, I didn't stop her, and came to inform my sister-in-law." Along the way, I bother you to take care of her more. ”
When he first heard it, Gu Yunyan was a little puzzled by Gu Yunjin's decision, but after thinking about it again, he also wanted to turn around.
They are all children of the Gu family, and such a choice is not surprising.
"Auntie, rest assured, Yun Jin must have thought deeply, she will not act rashly," Gu Yunyan said, "I will also protect her." ”
Xu's chin bowed and went in to see Shan's.
The room was quiet, only an oil lamp was lit, and Shan sat back on the chair by the table, her eyes closed, she looked very tired, and her whole shoulders drooped.
Xu stepped forward and called in a low voice: "Sister-in-law......"
Hearing the sound, Shan Shi opened her eyes, but her gaze was scattered, and after a long while, she focused on Xu, she moved her lips, and her voice was hoarse: "Why are you here?" ”
Xu sat down, and with this little oil light, she saw a few silver threads on Shan's sideburns.
It's clear that there wasn't one a few days ago.
Xu's heart tightened, today there was a sudden change, everyone was talking about how the Gu family was, how the generals were, how the children were, how the Northland was, in the eyes of outsiders, the Gu family was a guard, and in the eyes of their own family, the Gu family was a relative.
As the hostess in Beijing, Shan's carried all the contacts by herself, but aside from those, she tasted all this in the dead of night, what Shan lost was her husband, and she did not have time to be immersed in pain.
Xu Shi saw it in his eyes and wanted to persuade a few words with his own experience, but he still swallowed the words when he came to his mouth, this is not the time.
"I met Yun Yan at the door," Xu Shi simply said business, "If the fourth brother stays, does Yun Yan know?" ”
The "fourth brother" in Xu's mouth refers to her husband Gu Zhiyu.
Shan nodded solemnly: "Before we set off for Beijing, the general and I told him together, and he knew; Yun Si also knew that once I talked to the old lady and asked her to eavesdrop on most of it, and I had to tell her everything; Yun Xi didn't know about it, and he kept it a secret from him, just because of this, he had a trouble with me before.
I also told Yun Si today that the loss of the Northland may not be the reason, maybe it is a change on the side, and you must understand it before you can make a decision.
I just explained it to Yunyan, if not, it will continue to rot in the stomach, if it is, it will be up to him, the eldest brother, to tell his younger brothers and sisters, and then fight back the lost city.
Gu family, you must be worthy of the soldiers and people of the Northland. ”
