Chapter 6: Coincidence
Mrs. Su Wu stepped forward to support Chen with a bright and affectionate smile on her face, "The second sister-in-law is back, but my mother is looking forward to it, since you set off, you have counted the days, I heard that it has snowed recently in the south, and my mother is chattering, worried that your road is not smooth, how about it?" Is it going well? ”
Su Yunlai stood behind Chen, and when he heard her words, he felt a little emotional, he was worthy of being the daughter-in-law who couldn't even find fault with Su Wen's family, and she sold the old lady's good in a word, and let Chen get close to her.
Sure enough, Chen was already grateful, with a hint of trepidation: "The journey went smoothly, and the mother remembered that the daughter-in-law really shouldn't be." ”
Su Wenshi was very satisfied with Chen's attitude, and the smile on his face became more and more kind: "This is Ah Wan, come over and let grandmother see, Ah Wan has grown so big." As she spoke, she beckoned to Su Yunlai.
Ah Wan is Su Yunlai's milk name, after Chen gave birth to Su Zhan, Su Yunlai was born many years later, and Su Zhixun gave her the milk name Ah Wan.
Su Yunlai took a step forward, "My granddaughter has seen my grandmother. As she spoke, she bowed slightly.
Mrs. Su touched her head, she held back the goosebumps all over her body, and stood there motionless with her head down.
After Mrs. Su showed her loving concern, she finally withdrew her hand with satisfaction, and she looked at Chen: "The second child is good now, he is alone in Lingnan, and he is alone, thanks to your care." ”
"The second child is good now, he is alone in Lingnan, alone, thanks to your care." ”
Speaking of her husband, Chen finally relaxed: "Whether it's your husband, your husband often remembers his mother on weekdays, and says that he can't be filial by his mother's side, which is really unfilial, and he is terrified." ”
"Second child, it's filial piety, he is loyal to His Majesty, can I still find fault with him?" Su Wenshi said with a sigh.
Chen looked at Su Wen's family, and really remembered his eldest son in his heart, so he couldn't help but muster up the courage to speak: "Mother, is Zhan'er in the room?" After a pause, she hurriedly explained: "Zhan'er is by her mother's side, and her daughter-in-law is not worried, she is really worried." ”
It is a natural thing for a mother to think about her children.
It's just that as soon as Chen mentioned Su Zhan, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet, like a noisy place, and suddenly quieted down, with a strange sense of disobedience.
Chen twisted the handkerchief in his hand uneasily, and couldn't stop worrying in his heart: "Mother, but, but Zhan'er is ......," said him, and his eyes turned red.
Su Zhan's health is not good, and he was once asserted by the doctor that he would not live to be ten years old, but Su Zhan still grew up, and the doctor's assertion was like a short-headed knife hanging over his head.
For so many years, Chen was most afraid of receiving letters from the capital, because she was afraid that she would see news about the misfortune of her eldest son.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right at this time, Chen couldn't help but think wildly.
Su Yunlai frowned imperceptibly, when she went home with her mother in the previous life, Su Zhan did not appear, and at that time, Mrs. Su said that Su Zhan was sick again and was recuperating in the room.
Chen cared about his son and went to visit, when Su Zhan had already fallen asleep after drinking the medicine, although Chen was disappointed, he did not disturb his son's rest.
But the strange thing is that Su Zhan was sleeping when Chen visited several times later, in the previous life, Su Yunlai did not have a good relationship with Su Zhan's brothers and sisters, and she went to her mother twice and then didn't go, these are still things she heard in private that Chen and Mama Lan were worried about Su Zhan, saying that she only knew if she wanted to change Su Zhan's doctor.
At that time, she also had a temper because her mother only thought that her eldest brother couldn't take care of her, and later maybe she had just returned to the capital, Su Yunlai was not very adaptable, and she felt cold, so Chen was by her side and took care of her sleeplessly.
When she recovered from her illness, it was already a few days later, and Su Zhan's body gradually improved, Chen couldn't wait to see Su Zhan, but he got a cold speech from Su Zhan.
Although it was in the way of filial piety, Su Zhan did not speak ill of him, but Su Zhan's attitude towards Chen was very cold, and he had a resentment towards Chen in and out of his words, Su Zhan's attitude made Chen sad for a while, Su Yun couldn't see his mother sad, so he said a few words to his brother, and the two brothers and sisters quarreled again, and Su Zhan was so angry that he fell ill.
Mrs. Su was very angry and choked Chen, Mrs. Su said that Su Yunlai had no brother and no education, so she was punished to go to the ancestral hall to think about it, and Chen was worried about her daughter, so they went to the ancestral hall to take care of her.
After Chen came out of the ancestral hall, Su Zhan's family affairs had been decided, and Chen was ashamed because of what happened before, so he didn't say anything, and later when Su Zhixun wrote to ask, he said that she also agreed.
Su Zhixun didn't ask much.
It was also because of this that Su Zhan had such a marriage, which led to his later fate.
Now that he thinks about it, Su Yunlai realizes that the whole thing is weird, everything is too coincidental, it seems that someone has already calculated it.
