Chapter 369: Back then
Only Sanniang and Mama Zhao were left in the house. Mama Zhao was already lying flat at this time, but her head was tilted to the inside of the bed, and her eyes were closed, just like when Sanniang first came in, and she put on a gesture of refusal.
Her face and lips were pale, and her breath was shallow, and if it weren't for the slight rise and fall in her chest, it would make people feel that the shriveled old man lying on the bed was no longer breathing.
Sanniang naturally had no way to be angry with such Mama Zhao, she sighed lightly, got up and walked to the table and picked up the porridge bowl that the maid had just put on the table. The temperature on the wall of the bowl is slightly hot, and the porridge should be just enough to eat.
Sanniang took the porridge bowl and returned to Mama Zhao's bed to sit down, picked up the spoon in the bowl with her right hand and stirred it gently, the spoon touched the edge of the bowl, making a unique sound of porcelain colliding. Mama Zhao's eyelashes trembled.
Sanniang let the bowl and spoon in her hand occasionally make a soft sound, and said softly: "When I was a child, my mother always thought that the people who followed me to take care of me were careless, so she always had to serve me by herself. My brother still laughs at me, and when I can walk and jump, my mother always secretly feeds me behind my mother's back, just to let me eat a few more bites at each meal. Speaking of this, Sanniang chuckled, "Fortunately, my embryo is good, so I haven't been used to a pampered temper by Mama." ”
Mama Zhao couldn't help but whisper: "Miss was also raised by me like this, and she also has an excellent temperament, where will she be used to being pampered?" She grew up and forgot, when she was a child, she always asked me to feed her, otherwise she would not eat. When I get older, I become more well-behaved than when I was a child. I don't know if it's because she remembered the past, Mama Zhao had a smile on the corner of her mouth. Let her face finally bring a little color.
Sanniang also smiled: "Was my mother like this when she was a child?" I don't know. ”
"Where would you know this, your mother doesn't remember." Mama Zhao's face was soft.
Sanniang suddenly said with some grievances: "Mama." The bowl is so hot, my hands are red. ”
Mama Zhao was so shocked that she immediately opened her eyes, looked at the porridge bowl in Sanniang's hand and said hurriedly: "Put it down, where did you do this?" Her voice was still hoarse, and she spoke quickly, feeling a little out of breath.
Sanniang held the bowl and didn't move, her aggrieved expression remained unchanged, but she said seriously: "They said that you won't eat when they serve you, then you will always eat a bite or two if I feed you, right?" ”
Mama Zhao's tears flowed down instantly.
"I eat. Put the bowl down and call the maid in. "Because of crying. Mama Zhao didn't say this clearly, but Sanniang heard it clearly.
She obediently got up, put the bowl on the table, and raised her voice to call Bai Ying again.
Bai Ying soon came in, and Sanniang pointed to the bowl she had just put down and said, "Mama said she wanted to eat something, you can serve her with porridge." ”
Bai Ying answered, and first walked to the side of the bed and helped Mama Zhao up, who was already thin. Bai Ying had no difficulty helping her up. Let Mama Zhao sit at the head of the bed. Bai Yingcai took the bowl on the table in his hand.
Sanniang watched quietly as Bai Ying fed a bowl of white porridge to Mama Zhao, and after eating, Mama Zhao's face finally had some blood.
"I'll feed it later. Put it on a small stove and warm it first. "Many medicines in Chinese medicine are not allowed to be drunk on an empty stomach, and they are generally taken two quarters of an hour after eating.
Bai Ying warmed the medicine bowl again, and then picked up the empty bowl and retreated without saying a word.
Mama Zhao had just eaten, Bai Ying didn't help her lie down, she was still sitting against the head of the bed.
Sanniang walked back to the bed and sat down: "Mama, you eat and drink medicine well." You wait a little longer, and after a while, when the prime minister returns, I will take you to my house. ”
When Mama Zhao heard this, tears flashed in her eyes: "The slave is already old, and if you still follow you, it will make people laugh." ”
Sanniang said softly: "Mama is just sick now, isn't she still very healthy on weekdays?" I'll see how many more decades you'll have to work on. Later, I have a child, and I want you to take care of it. ”
When Mama Zhao heard this, her eyes lit up, and she subconsciously looked at Sanniang's abdomen.
Sanniang smiled and continued: "I don't worry about others. Or will you raise children, just look at me and my mother. ”
Mama Zhao smiled: "Where is there anyone like you who boast about yourself." ”
Sanniang smiled but did not speak.
Mama Zhao looked at Sanniang, her eyes were full of warmth, and she was half loud, but she said, "Young master, have you come back?" ”
Sanniang paid attention to Mama Zhao's expression, and saw that her expression was very complicated, so she said quietly: "I sent someone to find him, there are already his whereabouts, Mama, you don't have to worry." ”
Mama Zhao sighed lightly and stopped talking.
Sanniang looked at Mama Zhao and said softly: "Mama, brother, he has been a person who doesn't worry about him since he was a child. He had never done anything to worry us, so I was puzzled as to why he would run out without saying a word this time. ”
Mama Zhao's lips squirmed, and the expression on her face was complicated and incomprehensible.
Sanniang said again: "In this deep mansion compound, although it looks like it is full of flowers, it has no worries about food and clothing, and the days are enviable. In fact, only those of us who are in it know the bitterness behind the smile and the murderous intent under the calm. Mama, you see, my father had my mother by his side, Aunt Liu, Aunt Cui, and the eldest lady of the Xue family who he put in his heart. But now, just a dozen years, where are all these people? ”
When Mama Zhao heard this, she looked at Sanniang with horror in her eyes.
Sanniang said calmly: "In the homes of ordinary people, life may be difficult, but the biggest thing is just some food and clothing. Zhong Mingding's family, but at every turn, it is the shadow of swords and swords, and the killing machine is lurking. At that time, her mother had a pure heart, so she did not escape the joint murder of Aunt Liu and Aunt Cui. And I'm ...... Mama, do you remember a serious illness when I was ten years old? I was actually poisoned. Later, when I thought about it, when I was testing medicine for my mother, I accidentally let the poison into my mouth, and it was only because of the small amount that I didn't have the same symptoms as my mother. ”
Mama Zhao had never heard Sanniang say it before, so she was so frightened that she grabbed Sanniang's hand and looked at her hurriedly.
Sanniang patted Mama Zhao's hand: "I'm fine now, fortunately, I met Imperial Doctor Jiang a few years ago, she saw that I was poisoned and helped me out." I didn't want Mama to worry about me, thinking that the matter was over, and the culprits were all buried one by one, so I didn't talk to Mama. I suddenly took it out today and said it, not to let Mama worry about me for no reason, but to let Mama know. Over the years, my brother and I have had a hard time, and even our lives were in danger for a while, but we have finally survived by supporting each other. ”
Mama Zhao looked at Sanniang blankly, not knowing how to react.
"I know that if Mama doesn't want to tell me some things, it must be for my good, just like I think crankily in order not to worry Mama, and some things are not known to Mama. But if it's about my family's life, then it's better to worry when I'm worried or when I'm worried. It is better to be prepared than to suffer a sin or lose your life for no reason. ”
Mama Zhao's face was tired, and she said with some uncertainty: "Little Miss, you are already married, and you are a member of the Xuan family, even if there is anything in the Wang family, it will ...... It doesn't concern you. ”
Sanniang smiled bitterly when she heard this: "Mama, do you really think so?" In a family like ours, which family doesn't marry each other's family background? It is better to say that I am married, but it is better to say that the third lady of the Wang family is married. I am married, to put it mildly, even if the Wang family is raided and exterminated in the future, I don't have to worry about my life, but can I live well in my in-law's family? Won't my children be affected? At the beginning, my mother was in a difficult situation in the Wang family, but it was only because she did not have a hard mother's family. ”
This sentence is poking at Mama Zhao's death hole.
Mama Zhao closed her eyes, struggling and entangled in her heart.
Sanniang's words have come to this, so she didn't force Mama Zhao, and just sat quietly by the bed.
Mama Zhao's room is good in terms of ventilation and lighting, and the Xue family takes good care of Sanniang and Wang Jing's face. The winter sun shone in through the tissue-covered panes, casting a square shadow four or five paces in front of the bed. In the slanted beams of light, fine dust danced with the light. Such a scene makes this not very spacious room seem even more silent.
In such an environment, Mama Zhao's voice is like the sound of the wheel on the ancient well. The vicissitudes of life, dullness, and even worries that the crisp rope on the wheel will not be sharpened and suddenly broken.
"Miss, she married into the Wang family at the age of sixteen, and the slave maid watched her grow up, so she could naturally see that she was very happy to marry the master. Even if the old man is cold and rarely comes to the lady's house, and even if he comes, he doesn't talk much, but the young lady is still happy. My young lady is like this, she is not greedy at all and is easily satisfied. ”
Mama Zhao sighed lightly: "But even so, the Wang family still has to come up with a way to trample on her." Not long after the young lady entered the door, the old lady married another flat wife for the old man. At that time, Mrs. Tai's health was already not good, and she was powerless to stop it. Otherwise, the old lady would not be allowed to do such a humiliating thing. Since my wife Liu entered the door, my young lady has hardly lived a comfortable day. ”
Regarding the situation of the Zhao family back then, even if Sanniang did not see it in person, she could understand it. Her husband was cold, her mother-in-law didn't like it, and there were people beside her who were staring at her position.
Soon after the marriage, the young lady was diagnosed with a happy pulse, and at that time, I thought that I had finally survived. When a woman gets married, she has a child before she has roots, and if she gives birth to a boy, her in-laws will not dare to abandon it at will. ”
