Chapter Ninety-Seven: Mother and Son
In the evening, You Zi woke up slowly, and now the You family knows that her time is short, as soon as she wakes up, she cries with joy without leaving the Wei family who is guarding in front of the couch, but the tears just fall, and he hurriedly called the little envoy 'girl', "Go next door and invite Lang Jun to come!" β
You Zi didn't know the doctor's diagnosis, but she also felt that her illness this time was different from before, and there was no strength at all in her limbs, she struggled for a while, and Wei Shi hurriedly held her down and said, "Lady, hurry up and don't move, Lang Jun will come over immediately!" β
I was afraid that You Zi would misunderstand Ren Shenzhi and not care about her condition, so he hurriedly said, "Lang Jun was supposed to stay here, and the maid was afraid of delaying his homework, so he persuaded him to go next door to read the book." β
"He's supposed to read." You Zi struggled for a while, and it was dark in front of him, and he didn't dare to move anymore because he knew that it was not good, sighed, and said, "It's not the first time I've been sick, why did I call him back again?" How many times have you called him this year alone? How can you not disturb him in the long run? β
Wei Shi opened his eyes to blink away a tear, and said with a forced smile: "Lang Jun also has the guidance of Lao Hanlin at home, and he will definitely not delay, don't worry, lady." β
After saying these few words, I heard a sound of footsteps coming in quickly, Ren Shenzhi's face was pale, he pushed open the 'door' of the inner room, came in with his robe, grabbed the couch and knelt down, and choked up: "Mother! β
You Zi knows that Ren Shenzhi is filial, but Ren Shenzhi's 'temperament' has always been 'gloomy' and depressed, and he rarely 'shows' his emotions, but this time he actually ...... Her heart sank and she looked at Wei: "But my illness ......"
Wei couldn't bear to answer.
You Zi was stunned for a long time, but he smiled bitterly and said, "This is also fate, not to mention...... It's better now than it was then. β
Wei Shi saw that Ren Shenzhi was already sad and speechless, but tears were raining down, remembering that the doctor's advice to Yu Zi could be delayed for a few more days if he recuperated, and if his mood was 'excited', then three or five days would be almost the same, and he was in a hurry, and hurriedly pulled the corner of his clothes hard.
Ren Shenzhi was pulled by her several times before he reacted, but he didn't know what to say, the mother and son were silent for a moment, and in the end, Wei Shi said in a low voice: "Doesn't the lady have anything to say to Lang Jun?" β
Hearing this, You Zi was a 'excited' spirit, and suddenly reached out to grab Ren Shenzhi's hand, and after a while, he said: "This 'jade' pillow I have been pillowing on is empty, and there is a general book, and the things recorded on it are all yours." β
Ren Shenzhi burst into tears, and nodded his head - You Zi's words were already being 'handed over', he didn't want to hear it, he couldn't bear to listen to it, he didn't want to listen to it, but he had to listen to it.
"Most of the things in the booklet are in this Feixia Garden, including the dowry I brought back that year, and the You family helped add them after I came back...... But there are a few pieces, still in the Ren family, really can't bring back, if you can come back in the future, you want, if the Ren family is not willing to give...... Forget it......
"Your grandmother, treat our mother and son very well, back then, your biological grandmother did something sorry for her, but she really didn't treat me badly, all these years we have food and clothing, she has never deducted half a point, you don't complain that she has always been lukewarm to you, here is the You family, she is also for your good, you are not like Zhaojie has a Hou Mansion behind, others can only envy and dare not be jealous, if she treats you too well, when the time comes, it will hurt you!
"Mr. Tian is a person with real talent and learning, although I have been sick for many years, I have also heard of his reputation, he is willing to accept you into the 'door', I should personally go to thank you, but my body...... In the future, you must listen to your teacher and do not slack off......
"It's time for you to talk about marriage now, but your grandmother thinks you have a great future and is afraid of delaying your studies, so she recommends postponing it for two years before looking for ...... Your grandmother has always had a vision, and I have already entrusted her with your affairs, and if you encounter trouble in the future, please ask her and your grandfather...... Don't look at them as if they are close to you, you are what they grew up watching after all......
"Backwards...... became a family and lived a good life with his wife...... Don't be foolish...... Even if you are going to be in and out of the future, don't 'mess around' people, always pick a good family, you look at the backyard of your two uncles...... A capable wife like your eldest aunt, even if she meets her, isn't she exhausted to death? β
You Zi said this, tears had already wet her front placket, and she finally said the serious aftermath, "After I die-"
"Mother!" Ren Shenzhi finally couldn't hold it back, threw himself into her arms and whispered, "Mother is fine!" That quackβ"
"My son, my body, I don't know?" You Zi looked at him sadly, gently stroked the top of his hair, and said softly, "I have been able to drag on all these years, and I have 'spent' a lot of money on the You family, and what I owe to my mother in this life can only be repaid in the next life...... It's all fate, you don't have to be too sad, in fact, I can delay until now, and I'm a lot more relieved...... Now that you are older, you have a famous teacher, and you are studying, and you will try your best to cultivate you...... Although I can't wait to see you on the list, I also thank God for allowing me to watch you grow ......up."
She waved her hand with difficulty, signaling Ren Shenzhi to listen to herself: "After I die, don't help Ling go back to Ren's house first!" β
You Zi took a breath, calmed down, and continued, "Although your father is gone, your grandmother is still there, and your aunts and uncles are also here...... Those people ......," she said, "you are still young and have a great future, and you can't afford to send the 'door' to scorn that stupid 'woman'!" β
Because you are a concubine' 'woman', she will look at the 'color' since she was a child, and when she arrives at her husband's house, she has not been happy, and she has always been cautious in her wording, for fear of offending people, so openly scolding people is a stupid 'woman', which is already a manifestation of the resentment in her heart, Ren Shenzhi listened to the blood in her heart, and she really hated the aunt and aunt who had no impression to the bones!
I only heard her continue: "When the time comes, please ask your grandmother to let her go, and she will say to me...... I can't bear to leave my homeland, so I want to stop in Jiangnan...... Decade! β
"Mother!" Ren Shenzhi choked up and couldn't speak - according to the rules at this time, although You Ling took her son back to her parents' house to live, she and Ren Shenzhi were members of the Ren family after all, not to mention that Ren Le, who went first, was buried in the ancestral grave of the Ren family.
Obviously, You Zi knew that the relatives on the Ren family's side were not good relatives, and he was worried that his young son, who had not yet made the list, would suffer a loss, so he used the excuse of being attached to his homeland, stopped Lingjiangnan, and did not bury him for the time being, nothing more than to fight for Ren Shenzhi for ten years of Chenguang, so that he would be old and sleek or go to Qi County after the title of the gold list - not to mention being welcomed by the Ren family, at least, he could also protect himself.
But in the eyes of today's people, it is a lonely soul in Youzi, who will be lonely in Jiangnan for ten years......
Ren Shenzhi buried his head deeply, he felt that he had never resented the Ren family so much!
"Don't be sad, my parents are ahead after all, and I am already blesser than your father." You Zi said gently, "At least I'm very pleased to see you grow up!" β
She gasped a few times hurriedly, and Ren Shenzhi was shocked: "Mother?!" β
"Ahem...... If it doesn't matter, how many days can I last? You Zi stroked his 'chest' with his hand, smiled lowly for a while, and said softly, "Shenlang, while I still have strength...... What do you have to ask? I'm afraid I can't think about it now, but don't forget to 'hand' over the important things? β
She was afraid that she didn't tell Ren Shenzhi what she had omitted on her deathbed, but Ren Shenzhi's heart was 'chaotic' at the moment, and she didn't even have her sobriety at all. Has he been using you to get back and forth with you? β
Wei wiped his tears from the side, and said with a wry smile: "Lady, today Lang Jun returned in a hurry, Mr. Tian is not at ease, it is this Jiang Seventeen Lang who accompanied Lang Jun back." β
You Zi was suddenly anxious, her face instantly turned red and pale, so panicked that Wei Shi and Ren Shenzhi hurriedly helped her stroke her 'chest' and pat her back, and brought water to feed her little by little to drink, You Zi eased up, grabbed Ren Shenzhi's hand, and said cautiously: "Hurry up and stay away from him!" Don't say that he made up his mind that even your grandmother can't take responsibility for Zhaojie, even if he takes a fancy to the poor mother from Sanfang, if something dishonorable happens, can Sanfang not hate you?! What are you going to do then? This person and you are not all the way at all, you can't offend Mr. Tian with his face, but don't have anything to do with him in the future!! β
Ren Shenzhi hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry! Today, Senior Brother Jiang has already talked to me, and the reason why he took the initiative to talk to Zhaojie in the first place was not because he was interested in Zhaojie, but because he ......"
"Do you believe this kind of 'desire' to cover up?" Jiang Fu's romantic name is full of Moling, Zhuo Zhaojie was born noble and beautiful at a young age, where is Youzi willing to believe this? Immediately interrupted him and shouted, "If you listen to him, let him use your name to deal with, don't look at this kind of little Langjun has a bad reputation, but the young lady is the easiest to fall for them!" When I was in Chang'an, Mrs. Yongcheng Hou - that was the head of the Yue clan! Isn't it just that he was 'dazed' by the young Yongcheng Hou three times and five times, and the head didn't do it, and ran to Chang'an with the famous generals in the clan to be willing to be a lady in the backyard? ! If Zhaojie is seduced by him, your grandmother ...... Where can I spare you?! Don't be killed by that Jiang Seventeen without knowing it! β
"Mother." Ren Shenzhi said in a low voice, "Jiang Fufeng said that he was talking to Zhaojie in order to inquire about me - I'm curious, mother, Xu Jingxin, the head of the Northland Trip, I don't know this person at all, why does she have my portrait there, and when she went to Moling last year, she asked Jiang Fufeng about me many times?" I don't think Jiang Fufeng is lying when he says this. β
You was stunned: "What? β
Ren Shenzhi said: "It was the eternal night tower on the Moling side last year that invited the head Xu Jingxin from the Drunken Pavilion in the north to ......"
"Drunk?" When You Zi heard this, his face changed slightly, and he said, "This Xu Jingxin, is it really from the Drunken Good Pavilion?" β
Ren Shenzhi was stunned, and when he heard that You Zi seemed to know something, he said: "I don't know, but Jiang Fufeng said so." β
You Zi bit his 'lip', thought for a while, and seemed to say to himself: "How is this possible? Since he is the head of the line, he should not be very old, but no matter what the people said back then, they shouldn't be there! β
Seeing Ren Shenzhi looking at her suspiciously, she sighed and said, "Your biological grandmother...... Once upon a time in Ren's house, when I heard your aunt scolding Huai, it seemed that he had been in this drunken pavilion, and it was said that he was once the head of the line. β
Ren Shen was surprised!
"But since this Xu Jingxin is the head of the line today, he should not be very old, the head of the line is not something that ordinary prostitutes 'women' can do, no matter how talented and skilled she is, it will be almost the same after Double Ten, your biological grandmother's age is at least three generations behind this Xu Jingxin...... And she has passed away a long time ago, this Xu Jingxin ...... "Although You Zi deduced from the drunken pavilion that Xu Jingxin paid some clues to Ren Shenzhi, it was more unclear.
Ren Shenzhi frowned and said, "Mother, I wonder where she got my portrait?" β
ββ¦β¦ Maybe not your portrait. You Zi frowned, stared at his face, and said softly, "You are very similar to your father...... I'm afraid she's looking for your father! β
"Why is that?" Ren Shenzhi asked suspiciously, but his heart suddenly jumped, and he blurted out, "Could it be related to that Zheng's illness?" β
In this matter, Ren Shenzhi came back that day and asked You Zi for instructions, You Zi wrote a letter very reluctantly, and was reminded at this moment, and he also raised his eyebrows: "Your uncle has been to Chang'an at the beginning of the year!" But then he said, "No, Xu Jingxin came to Moling last year." β
"But maybe she has already reaped the benefits of the Ren family? Acting at the invitation of the Eternal Night Tower? Ren Shenzhi now hates the Ren family in his heart, thinks about everything in the worst, thinks about the Ren family in any bad way, and said in a deep voice, "When my biological grandmother went, I heard that my father was also young, and since Jiang Fufeng could recognize me by that portrait, he was curious and suspicious about me, I thought that the portrait should be similar to my age at this time!" In this case, the biological grandmother actually didn't see it, and she was able to draw that picture...... I'm afraid, it's still Ren's family, right? β
You Zi was a 'excited' spirit, and muttered: "I don't expect you to get anything from the Ren family for a long time, and I don't care if I can't even get back the dowry I left thereβwhat do they want?" β
Ren Shenzhi's eyes were heavy, after all, he was a student with the goal of gaining fame, he had been in the academy, and You Ruoheng had 'private' guidance, but his vision and thoughts were more far-reaching than You's, and he said slowly: "I heard that now the eldest son and sister-in-law of the East Palace have grown up, and they have reached the age of marriage one after another, and there is a faint tendency to compete!" Grandfather...... Cui Shanchang...... Although they resigned, they all had a profound relationship with the times...... Maybe Ren ......"
Having said this, You Zi and Wei Shi have changed their faces!
"What a vicious Ren !!"
