042 Old Lady Chu's routine
In her previous life, she didn't feel much of what it was like to be a mother's love, but now, she knows that it is a feeling of having someone to protect you and someone willing to shelter you from the wind and rain.
Chu Renmeng's eyes flashed with tears, and he muttered, "Mother." ”
Old lady Chu, who had been lying on the kang, waved her hand, and Old Lady Chu understood what he meant, and said, "Everyone go back first, let the old man rest alone." ”
The second master and the third master looked at the old lady, and their faces were indeed bad, so they gave up and left.
The second master and the third master left, and the ladies also said goodbye one after another, seeing that the people in the house were almost gone, the old lady Chu, who had been lying on the kang, spoke, "Mengmeng stays." ”
The eldest lady shook Chu Renmeng's hand, turned around and left, and the green pothos also followed out obediently, and the old lady Chu hid in the wing room for some reason, giving her grandchildren a chance to be alone, and for a while Chu Renmeng and the old lady were left in the house.
Old lady Chu beckoned and motioned for Chu Renmeng to come and sit.
Chu Ren was puzzled, now he looks at his grandfather as if he is not as weak as just now, so what happened to his grandfather?
Chu Renmeng sat meekly on the edge of the kang, and grandpa opened his eyes, "Good Mengmeng, it seems to be thin." ”
"Uh." It seems that grandpa has nothing to do, can he still joke, put his mind at ease, Chu Renmeng asked, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" ”
Old lady Chu didn't answer, but said, "Mengmeng, if I hand over all the family business of the Chu family to you to take care of, what do you think?" ”
Chu Renmeng was startled, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa, don't be kidding, I can't even play abacus, how can I take care of this family business?" Besides, there are second and third uncles, so I can't take my turn! ”
Old lady Chu shook her head, "Mengmeng, I handed over the Chu family to you, I have my own plans, and I believe that you can do it, when you were young, there were Xiangshi who asserted that your life is extraordinary, and the future will be unspeakably expensive." ”
Chu Renmeng's heart was weak for a while, thinking that this might be a criticism of Chu Renmeng in the past, but now that this body lives in the original owner, can that batch still be counted?
Old lady Chu continued: "Xiangshi asserts that your life will have a great chance that is different from ordinary people, and now it seems that what Xiangshi said has come true, and Xiangshi has said other things, and grandpa has kept it in mind, but there is a sentence that grandpa wants to tell you that you are a blessed person who can bring great glory to the whole family." ”
Chu Renmeng thought to herself, this Xiangshi is eating honey, and he actually picked up the good ones and said, yes, can the fortune teller say the bad ones?
Chu Renmeng asked, "Grandpa, did Xiangshi mention the second uncle and the third uncle?" ”
At the mention of the whole, the old lady Chu was obviously angry, and said hatefully: "It's mentioned, the son of a loser, don't mention it, it's your father..."
It was the first time that Chu Renmeng heard Old Lady Chu mention his father, and he wanted to hear more inside information, but he didn't expect Old Lady Chu to sigh heavily and say, "Hey, forget it, everyone has their own ambitions, don't mention your father's affairs." ”
The grandfather and grandson sat for a while, and Chu Renmeng suddenly thought that grandpa's body didn't look so bad, and asked, "Grandpa, do you feel much better." ”
Old lady Chu smiled: "I'm fine. ”
Chu Ren was stunned, "It's okay, why do you want to put on such a big formation." ”
Old Lady Chu sighed and said, "People are in the court, and they can't help it." ”
Chu Renmeng was puzzled, "Grandpa, what does this mean?"
Old lady Chu said: "Mengmeng, there are some things, grandpa can't help it, you must choose to retreat bravely, otherwise our entire Chu family will suffer." ”
Chu Renmeng suddenly thought of what she heard with Qin Lang in the night market that day, what those Qinglou women said had noses and eyes, could it be that grandpa also noticed it, she was looking for an opportunity to talk to her grandfather about it, so she said: "Grandpa, is it related to the Xie family." ”
Old lady Chu did not deny it, and said: "I didn't expect even you to hear about it, exactly, this time I retired through illness, and I want to come to the emperor to remember my past merits, and I won't be too embarrassed by our Chu family, but I can't stay in Kyoto anymore." ”
"Grandpa, where are you going?"
"I plan to take your grandmother and some servants back to our hometown in Jiangnan, I am old, I don't want to get involved in the court battle, and I will not be able to guarantee a late festival, and the shops in Kyoto and some fields will be handed over to you."
Chu Renmeng: "No, grandpa, how can I have experience, I can't do it, I'm afraid I will live up to grandpa's kindness." ”
Old lady Chu sighed and said: "If Mengmeng doesn't agree, I really can't think of anyone who can take on this heavy responsibility, your second uncle and third uncle are too arrogant, and there is no one who has become a weapon, if the huge family business is handed over to them, I am afraid that it will be squandered in a few years, if that is the case, after a hundred years, what face do I have to meet the ancestors of the Chu family." ”
"This ....."
Chu Renmeng hesitated, and the old lady Chu comforted: "Mengmeng." Don't worry too much, until then, I will find a gentleman to teach you, and grandpa will be with you until you officially take over. ”
Chu Renmeng saw that his grandfather had made up his mind, but he couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree to it, and the old lady Chu smiled reassuringly, after all, grandpa was very old, and after saying so many words, he had already spent a lot of physical strength, and after Chu Renmeng retreated, the old lady Chu fell asleep in a groggy state.
Chu Renmeng gently closed the door and walked out, and saw her mother and pothos standing outside the door, waiting for her.
Seeing her come out, the green pothos hurriedly greeted her, holding her arm, her eyes full of concern.
Chu Renmeng walked up to the eldest lady and called out to her mother in a low voice, the eldest lady touched her forehead, didn't ask anything, and said kindly: "Let's go, go back with my mother." ”
The eldest lady took Chu Renmeng's fat hand and walked silently towards Meng Yuan, the two were speechless all the way, Chu Renmeng finally couldn't help it, and asked tentatively: "Mother, don't you want to know what grandpa said to me?" ”
The eldest lady said lightly: "I must want to hand over the family business to you to take care of." ”
Chu Renmeng: "Mother, you guessed everything." ”
Eldest lady: "I can't agree to this matter, I'll talk to the old lady another day." ”
Chu Renmeng didn't expect that her mother's opposition was so fierce, and she blurted out, "Why, mother?" ”
The eldest lady stopped, turned her head to look at her, and said: "Because this is a thankless task, and Mengmeng, have you ever thought about it, if you really agree, will your second uncle and third uncle agree, you also saw it today at your grandfather's place, with your grandfather here, they are still so rampant, if there is no grandfather's protection, how will they embarrass you?" ”
As soon as the eldest lady's voice fell, she heard a lazy voice coming, "Sister-in-law, who is rampant!" ”
