"Slave maid...... The slave and maid were wronged...... "The flower in the nursery knelt on the ground with a "poof", and shouted in a trembling voice: "The slave and maid are for a while...... I was scared for a while, so I didn't dare to ...... I didn't dare to put my hand under the ding. Old lady, the slave has wronged ......"

This slightly hoarse voice sounded in the Mingyuan Hall, and it sounded a little harsh.

Old Madam Xu raised her hand slightly.

Furong on the side immediately understood, and commanded: "Come on, please go down and sit down." As he spoke, he turned to the flower in the nursery, and said, "Mama is so restrictive and restrictive, so as to leave two points of decency." ”

This almost gentle sentence is more amazing than a thunderbolt on a sunny day to the ears of the flower gardener.

Old Madam Xu didn't give her a chance to cry out at all, and she didn't even want to ask more.

Could it be that this time she really capsized in the gutter.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, her body trembled so much that she could barely kneel, but she didn't dare to shout injustice anymore, so she was dragged down by a few rough mothers-in-law.

"I remember in a trance, Mama Hua seems to have an only grandson." Seeing the Hunan curtain swaying in the wind, Xu Shi said unhurriedly and picked up a few tea cups.

Today's drama is really exciting, and the most important thing is that the matter is clear, the long house is unscathed, and she, the housewife, should be the one at this time. As for whether Mrs. Xu listens or not, it is not good to speculate as a daughter-in-law.

People have weaknesses, and the only grandson who flowers in the nursery family is a weakness. Just hold on to this, and any secret will be revealed.

Looking at the casual faces of the three people in the audience, Chen Ying's heart suddenly swelled with a deep boredom.

She closed her eyes, condensed her mind, and then bowed upwards and said calmly: "Grandmother, granddaughter has already concluded the case, and with the flowers in the nursery, I think the messenger will soon surface." The granddaughter's previous proposal, and asked the grandmother to ......"

Before she could finish her sentence, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

"Second lady, you wait a little ......"

"Second lady, slow down!"

The cacophony of words mixed with the sound of chaotic footsteps, but it came quickly in the direction of the main room.

The room fell silent all of a sudden, and Chen Ying was even more stunned.

Second lady?

Lee's coming?

As soon as the thought turned here, I heard a crisp sound of "pop", the Hunan curtain in front of the door was vigorously lifted, and Li's figure appeared by the door.

"Mother!" Chen Ying was shocked, and stepped forward to speak, not wanting Li to stand up with his eyebrows, and said sharply: "My son retreats!" ”

Chen Ying's footsteps were sluggish.

At this moment, the two maids guarding the door also hurriedly chased after them, standing behind Li with a red face, and when they saw the indifferent face of Mrs. Xu in the room, they both fell to their knees immediately.

"The servants didn't stop the second lady." One of the green-clad maids whispered.

Old Madam Xu nodded, and her eyes were very soft when she looked at Li.

"You're here." She said, still as she had spoken so many times, her voice sluggish and unebb.

The strange thing is that these three words seem to have magical power, and the two maids breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to the ground, and then got up and retreated outside the door.

"Second lady, sit down." Fleur took a few steps forward and said, leading Li to the side of her seat.

Li Shixian came all the way, his forehead was slightly sweaty, and his wheezing voice was very rapid.

Chen Ying was afraid that she would cough, so she stepped forward to pour tea for her with her own hands, but was slapped on the arm by Li.

"Why didn't you tell me anything?" She seemed to be enduring something with great strength, her eyes were red, her voice trembled, and even her lips trembled: "Why do you carry everything by yourself?" I'm so useless as a mother? ”

Looking at Li's sweaty face, for some reason, Chen Ying's heart was a little sour, and he was about to say something, but Li had already stood up, pulled Chen Ying behind him, protected her in front of her, and said in a trembling voice: "Old lady, since the old man has disappeared...... others."

As soon as she said this, her voice choked up, and Old Madam Xu also looked sad.

It's been a long time since Li has choked up like this.

She raised her hand to cover her eyes, large tears sliding down between her fingers, and a low sob.

At that moment, her heart was aching like a knife.

How many nights, she always woke up from her dreams and counted the drums outside the window until dawn.

From the beginning of hope, to the fear of hearing the news, the fear of bad news, and now no longer having any ideas, the process is so long, almost edgeless, almost desperate.

If it weren't for the company of her children, she would have despaired.

Fortunately, the children gave her the strength to feel that she was alive and at least a little useful, at least able to shelter them from the wind and rain.

But just now, when Furong took away Luo's mother and the others, the Li family finally understood that the person who sheltered from the wind and rain was not her, but her children.

Her thirteen-year-old daughter supported their family.

Li felt a pain that was eating away at his bones.

Since the day Chen Shao disappeared seven years ago, she has never been truly strong for a day, and it is only now, when she knows what her daughter is about to face, that she has the courage to face the world for the first time.

So, she broke into Mingyuan Hall.

The Guogong Mansion is facing a storm, and her youngest daughter is at the center of the storm.

Just thinking about it like this, Li felt that his whole body was puffed up with strength.

If she can't support her daughter, she will be too incompetent as a mother. And as soon as she thinks of what her daughter is about to face, Li's heart is full of cramps, as if a big hand is tearing hard, making her feel painful.

"Old lady, daughter-in-law...... Daughter-in-law, I want to talk to you. In the midst of the sobbing, Li gritted his teeth and spit out a sentence, and then raised his head.

Her eyes were red, her cheeks were filled with tears, and her face was distorted by suppressed emotion.

However, her eyes were incomparably determined.

Old Madam Xu looked at her in a daze, and her expression was in a trance for a moment.

At that moment, the slightly vicissitudes, sad and strong woman in front of me coincided with the young daughter-in-law who had just married into the Guogong Mansion and was resolute.

That's many, many years in the past.

The calm and dignified Erlang daughter-in-law in her memory has long since disappeared, and it was not until this time, when Chen Ying was in trouble, that the Li family seemed to have finally returned to her soul.

looked at Chen Ying, who was standing silently behind, and then looked at Li with a firm face, and for some reason, a trace of bitterness actually welled up in the heart of Old Madam Xu.

Among the four daughters-in-law, the only ones she carefully selected were the Xu family and the Liu family. Because Chen Shao and Chen Mian didn't pop out of her stomach, she didn't interfere too much in their marriage, so she handed it over to Grandpa Guo to deal with. But now it seems that the two daughters-in-law she picked by herself are really not very good.
