Chapter 21: Wei Zhenghong
When Wei Changying heard this, he said, "Then do you want me to ask my grandmother?" ”
"Now that Song Duan's situation has not been inquired, you went to ask, but how did you ask your third aunt?" Mrs. Song scolded lightly, because now the house is full of confidants, and she is not afraid to tell the truth to the 'daughter', "Since your grandmother has not raised the marriage of the cicada in the past few days, then the marriage of the high cicada mentioned last time has already been said casually - now your grandmother is too late to 'worry' about you and Changfeng, where do you have the heart to take care of the affairs in the third room?" Not to mention that Song Duandi went over to annoy her without inquiring clearly, if it weren't for your third aunt to stop her quickly, it would be strange if your third uncle didn't be scolded this time. In this case, you don't care about it, go back and wait for your third aunt to listen to people clearly, and I'll go with her. ”
Wei Changying was about to agree, but Mrs. Song said again, "You take this back, remember to apply it after bathing at night, don't wipe it off after applying it, just sleep like this all night, and Ming'er will get up and keep her face all right." ”
As she spoke, she took out a celadon bottle from her sleeve, but it was only the size of a square inch, and Mama Shi saw that Wei Changying was 'confused' and 'confused', and explained on the side: "This is snow lotus cream, didn't the eldest lady get sunburned two days ago?" Mrs. urged people to make it, but unfortunately this thing is not easy to store, every time you want to use it, you have to make it fresh, but it is very moisturizing to the skin, especially the sunburned area, it can be good if you apply it. ”
At the beginning, Wei Changying was worried about the sunburn on her face, but she was worried that Mrs. Song would reprimand her and deliberately make a scene, so she shouted that her face hurt, in fact, she didn't get to that point, she didn't expect that Mrs. Song had been busy these days but still remembered it, her heart warmed, she took the bottle and put it in her arms in person, and said sweetly: "No wonder my cousin always envies me, it's different to have a biological mother to love me." ”
Mrs. Song listened comfortably, and said with a smile: "This is natural, I can only be such a pearl in your palm, who else can you hurt if it doesn't hurt?" "I don't think it's right to say this to the second son, this long 'girl' is used to looking at people, and she has no teacher to be pampered and arrogant when she is young, and she says this by herself, don't let her become more arrogant and difficult to manage.
However, it was too late to change his words, and Wei Changying was triumphant: "I know that my mother is the most reluctant to me, and everything is close to me." ”
Mrs. Song could only sigh and tell the last thing she called the 'girl' this time: "I will go to have dinner with your father the day after tomorrow, you can think about how to dress up, and all the things you 'messy' that will worry your father will be put away for me!" But there is one word that annoys your father, look how I beat you! ”
Although Wei Zhenghong is frail and sickly, he has a good relationship with Mrs. Song. It's just that Wei Zhenghong's body is too weak, even if the Wei family tries their best to recuperate for him and renew his life, they can't make noise, because after Wei Changying's sister and brother landed, the husband and wife lived in separate hospitals, after all, children always have to be noisy.
After that, out of precaution against the second room and for the sake of Wei Changfeng's future, Mrs. Song insisted on letting Mrs. Song become a home. In the courtyard of the lady in charge, people naturally come in and out to ask for instructions, and it is impossible to be quiet, so after Wei Changying's sister and brother grew up and lived alone, Mrs. Song did not go back with her husband. After all, Mrs. Song's arrangement is also for the long-term consideration of the big house.
The current situation is that Wei Zhenghong has been served by a few "fine" servants who have lived in a secluded courtyard of Ruiyu Hall for many years, and occasionally when he is in good health, he can reunite with his wife and 'daughter', but it is only for a meal and a few words. Because they can't see each other every day like an ordinary father, for Dafang, such a reunion is like a holiday, and the mother and son will start thinking about what they will wear and what they want to say a few days in advance - in short, they will try to make Wei Zhenghong happy and reassured.
For example, Wei Changying's stubbornness in beating Xiao, and being beaten by his future mother-in-law this time, these things can't be 'exposed' in half a word.
For this father who has been ill for a long time and is rare to see, Wei Changying did not dare to be presumptuous, and replied with his hand, and asked Mrs. Song if there was no advice from the side, and then he retired.
The two days passed in a flash, and it was time for the big house to reunite.
Wei Zhenghong lives in the southeast corner of the Le Yi Yuan, the local atmosphere and warmth, now this season is even more grassy and green, because Wei Zhenghong is afraid of noisy, know that they are all sticky clean, in the summer step on the sparse 'flower' shade to walk in, the melting 'medicine' fragrance comes to the face, only to feel extraordinarily quiet.
Although the eldest son, who is rarely seen in Ruiyutang, has been sick for many years, and when he meets his wife and daughter, he mostly lies on the soft couch, but he does not hide his grace. Wei Zhenghong is forty years old, but he can only look at more than thirty years, his eyebrows are like swords, flying obliquely into the sideburns, his eyes are black and bright, his nose is like a hanging gall, he is extremely handsome, if it is not for the lack of blood on the thin "lips", the long-term recuperation house causes the skin "color" to be pale, these two pieces show the weakness of the body, it does not look like a patient, but it is more like an elegant celebrity who reclines on the soft couch in the afternoon to rest.
The word "manners", which is the most exquisite in the famous "family", has been vividly interpreted in him, and it cannot be covered up by a diseased bone.
It's just that Wei Zhenghong's demeanor is good, but when he speaks, he obviously 'reveas' his lack of qi, and his voice is light and fluttering, and it is even difficult to hear clearly if he is not close: "Chang Ying is wearing this pomegranate red shirt today, and she is very 'spirited'." ”
Wei Changying's outfit today was picked by He's help, the pomegranate red entwined branch 'jade' orchid 'flower' secretly embroidered undergarment, the water 'color' Luo skirt, the waist of the silk training, the single screw, and the oblique hairpin with two 'jade' orchid 'flower' hairpins. Originally, the weather is hot now, and the pomegranate red is the face of the top red and the top of the "glamorous", this piece of upper shirt makes people's hearts a little hot, but the green here in the Le Yi Yuan is thick and shallow, red and green, but her original bright and bright appearance is set off with brilliance, almost so that people can't look at it directly.
Hearing his father's praise, Wei Changying opened his eyes and smiled: "I knew that my father would definitely say yes, and my mother asked me to change to another lotus lotus 'color' before!" How can the lotus lotus 'color' have pomegranate red and bright 'bright'? As he spoke, he grimaced at Mrs. Song.
Wei Zhenghong smiled softly, his smile was indescribably elegant, and he said slowly: "The lotus lotus 'color' is good, my son was born well, and he looks good in anything." ”
Although it is a very common word used by the parents of the pampering son and 'daughter' to coax the 'daughter', from what he said, it is unprovoked and convincing. After being ill for a long time, she can still have such a demeanor, no wonder Mrs. Song is heartbroken for this son's '', and she can't let go of it and is unwilling.
Just look at Wei Zhenghong's long-term illness, and he can still cultivate this romantic charm, if he is a healthy person, Wei Huan's branch, what is there to worry about?
Mrs. Song glared at the 'girl' and said, "Don't get used to her all the time, she is getting used to her becoming more and more unruly now, and I can't control her anymore." ”
"How could my mother not control me?" Wei Changying said flatteringly, "I listen to my mother the most!" ”
"It's not easy for your mother to take you, don't let her 'worry' too much." Wei Zhenghong was still smiling and admonishing softly.
Wei Changying stuck out his tongue and said yes, Wei Zhenghong turned to Wei Changfeng and said warmly: "How is your homework these days?" ”
"Both my husband and grandfather said that the child was quite attentive." Wei Changfeng said respectfully and humbly, he is a typical child of a famous 'family', he already attaches great importance to manners and conversation at a young age, although he strives to behave elegantly and calmly in front of his biological father, but because of his age, he looks a little young, far less than Wei Zhenghong's charm infiltrated into his bones, and he is always a little restrained by his sister.
It's just that Wei Zhenghong's requirements for his sons and 'daughters' are different, and he has such a son under his knees, although he doesn't think that everything in Ruiyutang and Wei Huan should be Wei Changfeng's like Old Madam Song, but he also hopes that his only son can support his own 'door' court. Therefore, he was very satisfied with Wei Changfeng's sensibility, and Wen Yan said: "The quality is famous in the sea, and it is your blessing to be able to worship under his 'door'. ”
Wei Changfeng hurriedly gave up his hand to receive it: "The child obeys." ”
Mrs. Song said angrily: "Changfeng is doing well in schoolwork, so don't let anyone 'worry' about it at all." Because he knew that Wei Zhenghong's 'essence' was limited, and seeing that he had already asked his son and 'daughter', he changed the topic and said, "How have you been these days?" Do you feel more refreshed? ”
A faint smile appeared on Wei Zhenghong's pale face, and in the smile, there was tiredness and helplessness that could not be concealed, but he said, "It's better." ”
When Wei Huan and Mrs. Song asked a famous doctor in China to live in the Wei family for two years, they recuperated a little 'color', but it was just a pair of 'daughters' who took the 'medicine' stone and hung their lives.
Even so, from time to time, he has to have a small illness, Hugh looks at his elegant demeanor, calm and unhurried, in fact, he has to suffer a hardship at the end of three days, and it is common to toss and turn all night when he is uncomfortable. Even the famous doctor he had invited before couldn't do this, and he was already doing his best to renew Wei Zhenghong's life.
Wei Zhenghong is very clear about his body, and he has been dragging his life like this all his life. It's just that although it is a sin for him to live, he is willing to live such a painful but gratifying life for the sake of his parents and daughters, and his cousin, who has been married to the 'door' for decades despite his poor health.
But Wei Zhenghong has become accustomed to such pain, but Mrs. Song has been worrying about him, in order not to annoy his wife, so he doesn't want to talk more about his body at the moment, so he changed the topic and said: "Didn't Chang Ying mention lotus seed cake last time, Lu Quan went to the garden early this morning to pick lotus seeds and came back, and you will taste them in a while." ”
His purpose in changing the topic was very obvious, and Mrs. Song couldn't help but look dark when she heard the meaning. It's not that she doesn't know that her husband's health is like this now, but she doesn't give up, she always looks forward to the day when she finds another good solution, or God has mercy, Wei Zhenghong is all of a sudden, and the husband and wife support the eldest and youngest sons together, and they have a good relationship with each other.
The husband and wife were sad, and Wei Changying was lively, smiling and snuggling on his father's couch and saying, "Lotus seed cake? Father didn't know, two days ago, the little maid 'girl' next to me was playing in the garden, picking wild water chestnuts and going back, I ate a few, but I also think it has a different flavor, why don't you let Lu Quan make a water rhombus cake next time? ”
Mrs. Song immediately flew over: "Your father deliberately remembered the food you casually mentioned, but you became fast!" ”
"It's just a pastry, since my son has spoken, how can he not?" Wei Zhenghong smiled gently, raised his hand and ordered the next person not far away, "Write it down, let Lu Quan do it next time." ”
Lu Quan is the person in charge of Wei Zhenghong's diet at the 'door' of the Leyi Academy, and he was taught by the famous doctor back then, and he was good at 'medicine' diet, but the ordinary food was also unique, even Wei Changying and Wei Changfeng, who were quite picky about their diet, also appreciated his craftsmanship.
…… Since it came to eating, Wei Zhenghongsuo's 'sex' ordered the rice, and the lotus seed cake mentioned by Wei Changying last time was served, and it was served with Poria cakes, cloud bean rolls and lychee porridge.
Seeing the lotus seed cake with a pale green color and lovely, sprinkled with a layer of sugar, Wei Changying's eyes lit up, and he went to clip one and put it in front of Wei Zhenghong first, and at the same time, Wei Changfeng also raised his sleeves to pay tribute to Mrs. Song, and when Wei Zhenghong smiled and let them use it for themselves, the two sisters and brothers happily ate it.
Wei Zhenghong has been ill for a long time, and he drinks 'medicine' three times a day, so his appetite naturally does not improve, while Mrs. Song is worried about her husband and is not interested in pastries, so they both eat a little bit casually. However, when Wei Changying and Wei Changfeng were young and had a good appetite, they ate very sweetly, and the husband and wife looked at the healthy and lively appearance of the son and daughter, and the depression that was worried about Wei Zhenghong's body before unconsciously dissipated a lot.
Wei Changying finished eating one and wanted to take it again, Mrs. Song hurriedly said: "Eat less, this thing is made of glutinous rice, I'm afraid I will save it if I eat more!" ”
Hearing this, Wei Changying had to reluctantly look at the lotus seed cake, took a piece of Poria cake and took a bite absentmindedly, and threw it back into the plate in front of him - Mrs. Song was about to teach the 'daughter' 'wave' fee again, and the dishes outside came up one after another, because of Wei Zhenghong, most of them were 'medicine' meals, and it was a family banquet, and only two plates of cold dishes were used.
After mixing fresh bamboo shoots with celery and steaming chrysanthemum, it was a cold duck with cordyceps, Mrs. Song was busy rolling up her sleeves and serving soup for her husband, and she didn't care about her previous words for a while, but let Wei Changying just 'mix' it over......
