Li couldn't stand Xu Hui's accusation, and staggered away, tears poured down along the way, and she couldn't stop it, even she didn't know what the reason was.

Xu Ting waited in Chunhui Courtyard, and when she saw Li coming back with tears on her face, she greeted her in surprise, "Mother? ”

Looking at the slim Xu Ting, Li thought that it was because of himself that Xu Ting's family affairs were dragged to today, and now Xu Shu has also offended, but Xu Ting's marriage is still not settled, and I feel sorry for Xu Ting, I don't know how to face Xu Ting, I staggered to avoid Xu Ting's hand that reached out to help her, dodged into the inner room and closed the door, and the sound of Li crying suddenly came from the house.

When the Li family had never had such a gaffe, Xu Ting was shocked, pulled Mama Wu and asked, "Mama, what's wrong with my mother?" ”

Although Mama Wu accompanied the Li family to the Peach Blossom Villa, she did not enter the house, and she didn't know what happened between the Li family and Xu Shu, so she only shook her head, "The old slave doesn't know either!" ”

Xu Ting didn't give up, and asked again, "Where did my mother go today?" Did you give your mother a look that didn't have long eyes? ”

Mama Wu was embarrassed, "Madame doesn't speak, and the old slave can't say it!" ”

Xu Ting stopped asking questions at this time, and ordered someone to prepare hot water and soup, ready to wait for Li to cry enough to serve her to change clothes and freshen up.

Mama Wu went to get busy, Xu Ting waited outside the door for an hour, Li finally opened the door of the inner room, Xu Ting didn't ask Li the reason for crying, only methodically commanded the maid to serve Li to clean her face and makeup.

Li was moved and fell into deep self-blame and guilt, what should she do to live up to her second daughter's filial piety?

After returning from Peach Blossom Villa, Li's body and mind were exhausted, and Xu Hui was even more tired of drinking, and he didn't even have the heart to speak, after washing, he drank two sips of bird's nest porridge and went to the couch on the side to squint, Xu Ting intimately put down the window to block the light, and took a thin silk quilt to cover Li's, and only after doing this did he pick up a book and sit down quietly not far from Li's.

In the fog, Li had a dream, the dream was full of firelight, the cry of children, the shouts of the old lady filled her eardrums, it was the scene of the day of the fire in De'an Hall, and she will never forget everything that happened that day in her life.

That day, Li was in the house to choose and try on the clothes to wear to attend his son's full moon banquet later, when suddenly the maidservant came in a panic and reported, "There is a fire in De'an Hall!" ”

The half-inserted peacock hairpin in Li's hand fell straight down, and the person immediately ran to De'an Hall with his skirt, her son, the son she gave birth to with all her might was in De'an Hall!

Still far away, Li saw the fire in De'an Hall, Li's legs were weak and he could barely walk, and he felt desperate every step he took, especially when the old lady shook her head at her in despair, "The fire is too big, and the children are trapped inside!" ”

Li Shi could no longer stand steadily, and rolled down at the door of De'an Hall, crying regardless of his image, "Someone is coming!" Hurry up and put out the fire, Brother Hua is still inside, and my son is still inside! ”

Wang's old tears went to help Li's, "The next room is full of spring sleep, the wine jar is broken, and the fire is not saved as soon as it is lit......"

"No...... No, it won't! Li desperately pounded the hot slate on the ground that was baked by the firelight, how could the son she had given birth to so desperately be gone? That's her life! She can do without anything, but she can't do without her son!

Li stood up crookedly and was about to rush into the fire, but was stopped by Wang, "Don't be stupid!" The child will still have ...... "Xu Hua is the eldest grandson of the Xu family, the Li family is distressed, and the Wang family, the grandmother, is also distressed."

Li cried and shook his head, desperately struggling to scatter each other and not give up, "No, I want to save my son!" At this time, Li Shi actually knew very well in her heart that she might never have children again in her life, and the facts proved that this was indeed the case!

But despite Li's crying, Wang just didn't let go, and the fire didn't weaken for half a minute, and the buckets of water poured on it were just a drop in the bucket, useless.

In the firelight, Li's face fell into ashes little by little, and the growing fire finally made Li desperate, her son is gone, is there still meaning for her to live? The collapsed Li knelt on the ground and slammed his head on the ground, again and again, and the blood did not stop.

The whole world seemed to be left with the sound of fire devouring wood, but at this moment, a burning window fell, and a small figure rolled out from it, this figure quickly stood up after landing on the ground, staggered out, and the fire was imprinted on her immature face, Wang saw it clearly, and exclaimed, "Sister Shu? ”

Li looked up and saw Xu Shu, who was still burning with flames and smoke on her body, running towards her, at that moment Li was disappointed, why did it be her daughter who ran out, not her son?

But Xu Shu fell in front of her, untied her wet skirt, and handed her the intact Xu Hua, "Mother, my brother is here!" ”

That was the last thing Xu Shu said before she fainted, and Li's bloody and tearful face was the last scene she saw.

Li held Xu Hua in his arms as if he had been reborn, and Wang's basin of water extinguished the flames on Xu Shu's back, suddenly revealing her bloody back, and Xu Shu lay there motionless, as if dead.

"Nope! No! Li shouted, but suddenly woke up, touching Xu Ting's concerned gaze, Li touched the sweat on his forehead and said weakly, "I had a nightmare!" ”

Xu Ting hurriedly handed over a bowl of ginseng soup, "Mother, this is overworked, it hurts your mind, drink a bowl of ginseng soup to replenish your vitality!" ”

Li Shi took the bowl but was suddenly stunned, this bowl ......

"Bang dang~" The bowl fell straight to the ground, and the ginseng soup was spilled on the ground.

Xu Ting looked sad, "This is what I boiled with my own hands, doesn't my mother like it?" For this reason, she also deliberately found a set of never-used bowls from the storeroom, just to surprise the Li family.

The sound of the porcelain shattering finally made Li come back to his senses completely, and waved his hand in shame, "It's my hand that slipped!" Serve me another bowl! After a pause, Li added, "Change the bowl, this bowl is not what I am used to, I am not used to it!" ”

Xu Ting changed the bowl and served another bowl to the Li family, and the Li family drank it in three or two clicks, and praised, "It's even better than your Mama Wu's stew!" ”

Xu Ting smiled proudly and shyly, pleasing and pleasing the Li family is not easy for her?

"By the way, where did you find that bowl just now?" Li asked casually.

Xu Ting replied, "I found it from the warehouse, and my daughter used it when she saw its elegant color, but what's wrong?" ”

Li smiled and waved his hand, "That set of bowls broke one, and I didn't think it was unlucky, so I never used it again!" ”

Xu Ting nodded obediently, "My daughter has written it down!" ”
