Chapter 246: Old Tears

Zhao Fengnian also smiled calmly and at ease, stepped forward to cover the thin quilt for her, patted the soft pillow, and then helped her lie down, for the first time in his life, he didn't care that outsiders were present, bowed his head and kissed his wife's forehead, and said softly, "Sleep for a while, I'll go and give you steamed egg custard." ”

Ruixue remembered the finished product he had steamed last time, and couldn't help but sigh, "I don't want to eat custard with eggshells and salt particles." ”

Zhao Fengnian's face turned red, coughed dryly twice, and knocked his wife's head dotingly, "It's okay to eat, and it's so picky." After speaking, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "Let Caiyue prepare, I'll just burn the fire and steam it." ”

The old lady sat stupidly aside, watching them talk and laugh, the oil lamp that had just been lit on the table was reflected on the two of them, and the shadow cast on the white window paper was intimate and warm in one place, for some reason, she suddenly remembered the deceased Lord Hou and Mrs., although the Lord Hou was rarely accompanied by Mrs. a few days a year because of the war, but as long as the two were in one place, it was like this, even if they didn't speak, just looked at each other, they made everyone in the house envious, only envy the mandarin ducks and not the immortals, that's it...

In this life, a woman is the most fortunate to be cared for by her husband like this...

However, why is this man a Mr. Mengxue from a small mountain village, and not the mighty and handsome young general?

Thinking of how angry the young general would be if he saw this scene, the old lady couldn't help but shudder and woke up.

No, no, she must persuade Miss to change her mind, she must take Miss back to Houfu, she must fulfill the last wishes of Lord Hou and Mrs., and she must marry Miss into the General's Mansion...

The Zhao family and his wife were laughing for the "delicious egg custard" they had made before, when they suddenly heard a low sobbing sound next to them, and then they remembered that there were outsiders in the house.

Zhao Fengnian was familiar with Rui Xue's temperament, squeezed her hand, and immediately tightened, how could Rui Xue not know what he was worried about, smiled at him comfortingly, and then said, "Mama, it's not that I'm ruthless, I can't remember anything from the past, instead of treating you as strangers, it's better to live your own life, after all, I didn't die, getting married and having children in this small village is already God's favor, I don't have any extravagance, Mama can rest assured to go back." After two years, when the children are old and our family goes out to play, I will go to visit my grandmother again. ”

The old lady saw her young lady talking gently, but the look in her eyes was very firm, and her heart became colder and colder, the woman in front of her was the face of the young lady, but her temperament was as weak and quiet as before, a little different, did she forget the past, and even her temperament changed?

Seeing that Zhao Fengnian got up, Ma Shan was about to invite her out, and hurriedly put away the cranky thoughts in her heart, and then knelt down, walked to the bed, took Ruixue's hand, choked and begged, "Miss, Mama is old, there are not a few years to live, Mama has no other requirements, just beg Mademola not to drive me away, let Mama serve Miss for some more time, okay?"

Miss is not feeling well, she is pregnant with a child, and today is so dangerous, Mama is worried in her heart, Miss, whether you remember the past or not, Mama is your Mama, you should be a beggar at home, let Mama serve by your side.

Miss, Mama has no face to see Mrs. Houye, Hou Ye died in battle, Mrs. also went later, Mama hugged you, coaxed you, from the age of dissatisfaction, to now, nineteen years, although the people of the General's Mansion treat you well, but under the fence, how can there be no difficulty, Mama has carried you over, I just hope that Miss can marry a good family... But, Miss, why don't you recognize Mama, Mama loves you the most, Miss... You let Mama stay, even if you treat Mama as a rough mother-in-law..."

The old grandmother's tears flowed more and more urgently, and soon wet Ruixue's palm, which provoked the trace of nostalgia in the depths of her heart, which instantly turned into sourness, and almost fell into tears, Zhao Fengnian also felt uncomfortable when he heard it, and saw that his wife's face seemed to be sad, where was he willing to do it, he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded, "It's getting late, it's better to let Mama stay, in a few days, your body is better, Mama is relieved, and you can hurry back again." ”

The old lady didn't wait for Rui Xue to speak, hurriedly turned around, kowtowed to Zhao Fengnian and thanked her, Zhao Fengnian stretched out his hand to help her up, and told Rui Xue a few words before taking the old lady out.

Everyone in the backyard who had been busy all day had already eaten, half curious, half worried that the Zhao family needed help, so they gathered together, smoked dry cigarettes, and waited for news.

The maids and guards who came with the house were hungry all the time, waiting in the courtyard, the guards were fine, their faces were still tight, standing quietly outside the door, but the maids and women were angry, this complained that they didn't prepare more snacks, and the one who secretly scolded the countryside for not having a good number of manners, it was late, and the guests were starving...

Zhao Fengnian thanked the villagers, saw that they were out of the courtyard gate, and instructed Sister-in-law Zhang to take people to prepare two tables of seats, take care of the empty houses on the left and right wings, and entertain everyone in Houfu to eat and rest.

Lu Rui looked at the old grandmother's face was not good, and her heart was tight, and after she thanked Zhao Fengnian, she helped her mother to follow Sister-in-law Zhang into the guest room that had entertained Bai Zhanpeng and others in the East Chamber, Sister-in-law Zhang helped light the oil lamp, and then withdrew, Lu Rui immediately asked, "Mama, did Miss promise to go back to the waiting house?" ”

The old lady lowered her eyes, holding a cup of warm tea in her hand, as if thinking about something, and said after a while, "No, I'm afraid that Miss won't go back with us." ”

"Don't go back!" Lu Rui was so shocked that her voice immediately rose by three points, and she asked anxiously, "Why doesn't Miss go back?" But the poor scholar stopped him? I'm going to scold him, what kind of thing is he, how can he be worthy of our young lady? ”

"Stop!" The old lady stopped her with a loud voice, rubbed her aching forehead fiercely, and said in a low voice, "Miss had a serious illness before, and she forgot all about the past, she didn't even want to recognize us, how could she say that she would go back to Houfu?" All she remembered was the village, the yard, and hers... Husband and child, we are strangers! ”

Lu Rui still couldn't believe it, stepped forward and pulled the old lady's sleeve, and begged, "Mama, you beg Miss, Miss has a good temperament and has no temper, Mama advises Miss, Miss will definitely listen..."

The old lady remembered Ruixue's look just now, and let out a long sigh, "Miss... It's not the old lady anymore, I forgot all about the past, and I changed my personality, I'm afraid I can't persuade her. ”

"Then what should I do, absolutely not, Miss must go back to Houfu, the young general is still waiting for her, the young general..."

When the old lady heard her mention the word "young general", she immediately turned cold, shook off her hand, and said in a deep voice, "Miss forgot the past, naturally I don't know about the general's mansion, you keep your mouth shut for me, if Miss listens to half a sentence, it will make her body even more uncomfortable, don't blame me for moving the family law!" ”

Lu Rui closed her mouth in response, but her face was full of unwillingness and despair, the old lady's eyes narrowed, and she said, "Don't think I don't know what you want in your heart, immediately give me those thoughts that shouldn't be, you are Miss's personal maid, you must put Miss's preferences first all your life, whoever she marries, you have to love whom!" If you dare to have two hearts, hum..."

Lu Rui shuddered fiercely, her face immediately turned pale, if even Mama didn't support her, what chance would she have to accompany Miss to marry that person, and what chance would she have to put on the armor for him...

The old lady looked at the change in the expression on her face, lowered her eyes again, and drank tea without a sip, this girl's temperament just doesn't know how to return, even if she is so harshly reprimanded, I am afraid that she will not be willing to give up.

She and Miss grew up together since childhood, although Miss is the master, but her temperament is too soft, almost everything is this girl in charge, how can she bear Miss in this small mountain village, marrying a poor scholar? She must move her mind and persuade the young lady to change her mind.

In this way, if she can persuade her to transfer, it is naturally the best, if she can't persuade her to transfer, she will annoy Miss, and she will have an excuse to turn around...

The old lady thought about it clearly, and her heart relaxed slightly, and she called the little girl to turn out the homely clothes she brought, and went all the way to the stove, preparing to cook a few dishes for the young lady that she used to love, if it could remind her of half of the past, it would be good.

Lu Rui stayed in the guest room, spinning all over the floor, and the brocade in her hand was almost crushed, thinking about how to make the young lady change her mind, how did she know that her thoughts had been clearly understood by the old lady?

Rui Xue woke up after a nap for less than half an hour, and the old mother had already sat on the side with a smile and waited, seeing that she woke up, with a loving smile on her face, she brought warm tea to rinse her mouth, and then waited for her to put on her shoes and go to the ground.

Rui Xue is used to doing everything by herself, she bought Caiyun Caiyue and came back to serve, and it took half a month to adapt to the days of this 'landlord's wife', even now, most of them are treated as little sisters, at this time, naturally she can't see the old mama doing her own service, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop her, and said with a smile, "Mama rest." ”

Caiyun immediately stepped forward and squatted down, put on shoes for the master, and the old lady smiled and praised, "Miss's little maid is really clever." ”

Ruixue helped Caiyun out of the inner room, sat at the dining table, and said with a smile, "Their sisters were bought by my husband when they went into the city, and they accompany me on weekdays, and they are all sensible children." After she finished speaking, she looked around the room and asked, "Why don't you see Mr., Brother Yu, and Amber?" ”

Caiyun seemed to be a little hesitant, and after a while, he saw that the old lady didn't speak, so he couldn't, so he said, "Brother Yu'er, Da Zhuang, and Heizi went into the mountains to play, and they haven't come back yet, Mr. and Amber brought people to look for them." After she finished speaking, she seemed to be afraid that Rui Xue would worry, and persuaded again, "When Mr. left, I said that I want Mrs. not to worry, Brother Yu has some kung fu on his body, and there will be no danger, and they will come back soon." ”

When the sky is dark like this, even if there are few wild beasts in the mountains and forests, they are a little more dangerous than the day, how can Rui Xue not worry?
