When everyone arrived at the main courtyard, Zheng Anyan was already waiting there, and when he saw his mother, Zheng Anyan greeted him and saluted his mother: "Say hello to my mother." The old lady raised her hand and helped Zheng Anyan.

Everyone saluted Zheng Anyan together, Zheng Anyan waved his hand so that everyone didn't have to be polite, and walked to the Li family again: "My cousin is here, my cousin was too busy yesterday, I couldn't go to my mother's place, it was my cousin who neglected my cousin and niece, and I hope that my cousin and niece are not strange!" ”

Seeing Zheng Anyan talking to him, Li was still a little excited in his heart, and said to Zheng Anyan with a restrained mood: "What did my cousin say, my cousin is in the position of prime minister, and he works hard for the country every day, how can my cousin blame my cousin, besides, although you and I are cousins, in my cousin's heart, we have long been a family, since we are a family, why should I be lazy." ”

Li Ziyue also said when she heard her mother's words: "Yes, uncle, in Ziyue's heart, uncle has always been Ziyue's relative. Therefore, mother and Ziyue will never blame their uncle or anything. ”

When Zheng Anyan saw the Li mother and daughter say this, he only smiled and nodded: "That's good." Today, my mother said that the family would eat together, so let's not talk here, let's go to dinner quickly. ”

So everyone followed behind Zheng Anyan and the old lady and entered the hall together. A maroon wooden table stands in the middle of the hall, flanked by eight round stools of the same color.

After Zheng Anyan and the old lady settled down, everyone sat down one by one, Zheng Anyan and the old lady sat in the middle position, Zheng Anyan sat on the right, and the old lady sat on the left, so the old lady on the left was the Li mother and daughter, and on the right was Zheng Anyan, and on the left was her own mother, and on the right were her two daughters.

Although it is said that there is no food and no sleep, after all, there is a Li mother and daughter today, and the old lady and Zheng Anyan will also say a word or two to them from time to time.

Li finally had an opportunity to talk to his cousin, so he was naturally reluctant to let go of the topic of continuation: "Cousin, my cousin-in-law has been gone for so many years, and my cousin really doesn't want to find another one?" Cousin, you are in a high position, how many people's daughters want to marry their cousin, cousin might as well think about it. ”

The old lady was a little unhappy when she heard that Li suddenly said this to Zheng Anyan, and said that she would let herself see it first, and then decide whether to tell her son, and now Li told her son about it like this. However, although the old lady was a little unhappy, the expression on her face did not change, and she still looked smiling.

When Zheng Anyan heard this, he frowned, and thought of what Jing Ning came to him yesterday to say about the continuation of the string, and he knew in his heart, no wonder Jing Ning said that incident yesterday, it turned out to be the Li family's reason.

Although Zheng Anyan understood it in his heart, he still decided not to pierce it first, so he pretended that he had not heard Jing Ning say this before, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Zheng Xiuning speak: "What? Auntie, what do you mean by that? My father's infatuation with Sister Jingning's mother is well known to everyone, for so many years, my father has not married anyone else, how can you, aunt..."Xiuning's words were deliberately not finished, she said too much, and the old lady might be unhappy, so she just clicked to the end.

Zheng Anyan saw that Zheng Xiuning said so much, and then said what he wanted to say just now: "Yes, Xiuning is right, I already have someone in my heart, and I don't want to marry her again, besides, I am not the kind of person who is greedy for momentary pleasure, if I marry someone else's daughter, and I don't have her in my heart, it will not be good for her." ”

After listening to Zheng Xiuning's words, Li Shi was already unhappy in his heart, and when he heard Zheng Anyan say the same, he was even more unhappy, so he threw out the question of the heir: "My cousin is infatuated with my cousin-in-law, but what about my cousin-in-law?" My cousin has no successor, how can my cousin be at ease? ”

Zheng Anyan heard Li mention his deceased wife, and his heart was a little unhappy. Although what she said was so reasonable, she shouldn't have brought out her dead wife and forced herself to marry again. Zheng Anyan didn't want to say it too ugly, so he just said lightly: "That's what you said, but I just don't want to marry another woman." I also know that cousin you are for my good, but I only have your cousin in my heart. ”

Seeing that the matter had been said, the old lady was a little unhappy with Li's self-assertion in her heart, but she still had to favor Li, because she had the same idea as Li, she needed her son to marry another woman and give birth to a son for her family, so as not to have no successor after a hundred years.

So the old lady also opened her mouth: "Feast! Mother has always wanted you to marry a room, but she hasn't said it before. Now that your cousin has mentioned this, Mother still hopes that you will think about it. The mother is old, and she has nothing more than to be able to hold her grandson. The mother didn't want to wait until she couldn't hold her grandson, but she still didn't hold her grandson. Mother is just an ordinary person, like an ordinary old man, who only hopes that she will have children and grandchildren. ”

Zheng Anyan heard his mother's words, and fell into deep thought, his mother had never told her thoughts to herself before, she thought that her mother didn't care about this, but it wasn't, but her mother was enduring it and didn't say it. He wondered if he was an unqualified son, his mother had always wanted to hold a grandson, but he only wanted to guard one person, and he didn't want to marry another woman.

Zheng Jingning couldn't help frowning when she saw what her father was thinking, although she didn't care if her father would marry someone else, and she also hoped that someone could accompany her father for the rest of her life, but Li was eager to let her father continue the strings, and she was afraid that she didn't have any good intentions.

Li Ziyue saw that no one spoke, and couldn't help but speak: "Uncle, as the saying goes, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest." Uncle has always been a filial person, and my aunt has always wanted a grandson, so it is better for my uncle to think about it, and there is no one else around my uncle. ”

Zheng Anyan looked up at Li Ziyue and sighed: "Ziyue, you are still young, and there are some things that you don't understand." Okay, let's not talk about that, let's eat first! I'll talk about it after dinner. ”

Li Shi wanted to say something more after hearing this, but under the table, Li Ziyue quietly kicked her, so Li Shi didn't say anything anymore Eat honestly.

Finally finished eating, Li hurriedly wanted to speak again, Zheng Anyan saw it, quickly looked at the sky, and spoke first: "It's not early, I have to go to the court." Cousin, Ziyue, I'll trouble you to stay at home with your mother. ”

When Li heard this, he could only swallow back what he wanted to say: "Yes, cousin, don't worry, we will accompany my aunt well." ”

Zheng Anyan also told Jing Ning that if Ziyue wanted to go out, she must accompany her, so as not to lose the demeanor of the master's family, as for Xiuning, Zheng Anyan just asked her to go back to the room and think about it.
