Chapter 35: Orikyo (1)

The hookah hugged Mrs. Shen, and Mother Li greeted her all the way, and then she arrived at Feng Shen's courtyard.

The night in this courtyard was quiet and silent, and the cool wind accompanied by the sparse rain slanted into the oil-paper umbrellas, falling on the faces of several people.

The hookah clearly noticed that the rain in mid-spring was so cold.

Through the dim light, the place where she landed was actually yellow, just like her aunt's lonely years, falling flowers and flowing water.

The old lady didn't say anything all the way, and when she helped her in, the girl welcomed her into the side room, and when the hookah looked intently, she saw that her cheeks were already soaked, shining with crystal light.

The atmosphere in the room is low, and even if the brazier is raised, it is difficult to warm the atmosphere of the freezing point after all.

At this time, Lang Zhong carried the medicine box, came out of it with a powerless look, and was sent out of the house by the girl.

Behind the screen, there was a group of people, all of whom were old and young in the Feng family's rooms, and even the uncle, who had not shown up for the past few days, was also present.

Old Madam Shen was silent for a while, and the room was surprisingly silent.

Standing still in the distance for a while, the hookah could barely see her old man's mood, and she was naturally very embarrassed by her mood at this time.

I don't know if it was frozen in the cold wind just now, or because of this atmosphere, Old Madam Shen's hands were so cold, shockingly cold.

The silence lasted for a long time.

Old Madam Shen had tears in the corners of her eyes, and when she stayed in the crowd and saw the thin figure on the kang, she was like waking up from a dream, and ran inside regardless of it.

The hookah followed, and one or two of them were red faces with weeping eyes.

The atmosphere was overwhelming.

Feng Wanniang lay on Feng Shen's kang, crying almost out of strength, and the girl willow branch was also secretly sobbing on one side, gently smoothing her back.

Feng Shen's face on the kang seemed to be painted, and the whole person was lifeless and half-leaning on the pillow, his chest rising and falling slightly.

Seeing that fine and dense beads of sweat appeared on her smooth forehead, and her eyes were deeply sunken, she looked extraordinarily deep, and when she saw Old Madam Shen coming, her pale lips opened and closed slightly, stretching her wrist, as if she was going to say something.

When she first came, she was much haggard and emaciated, skinny, and lamentable.

Now lying on the sickbed for a long time, I finally survived until the day when the oil ran out and the lamp dried up.

Shisha was stunned, as her grandmother said, she was not a bodhisattva who saved people and helped the world, but at this moment, she had a resonance that she had never had before.

The same sadness and misery, the same patience and swallowing the voice, but without a trace of love and pity from the husband's family, life is like walking on thin ice.

When Old Madam Shen shook Feng Shen's hand, she heard a faint voice like a mosquito: "I have received a blessing, it is also rare, this time everyone is together." ”

Old Madam Shen didn't reply to her words, but just pressed her head as if she didn't have it.

Feng Wanniang looked up slightly, and when she saw them like this, she couldn't help it, crying pear blossoms with rain.

"Yes, what the eldest lady said is that everyone is here, and the family is rare and complete." On one side, Aunt Cui wiped her tears with a handkerchief and murmured.

"God favors me, I have been sick for most of my life, and now I can walk decently." Feng Shen covered the handkerchief, coughed lightly a few times, and when he took a closer look at it, his eyes wandered, and he saw that the white handkerchief was dyed with a dazzling red.

also swallowed his saliva, and only covered it lightly, so that everyone would not see it.

Yes, the body has been weak since childhood, this disease is brought out of the womb, since giving birth to the girl, the body is even less conditioned, that is, more and more day by day.

How can the big family of the Tongmo Dynasty not have a branch and leaf, and the heirs of the second house are thin, so they have accepted many concubines one after another.

Feng Shen smiled with relief, the path she chose at the beginning, even if it was blocked at the end, she should go on hard, not to mention, she was already used to this disease.

Thinking about it, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he held Mrs. Shen's hand, and his tone was as vague as a misty cloud: "Mother, for many years, Ping'er has not been born by you, but you have always treated Ping'er as your own, and Ping'er has nothing to repay." ”

As she was talking, I saw a tear fall from the corner of her eye.

Old Madam Shen paused, pulled out a pale smile, and kept reading "silly girl" in her mouth.

There was a moment of silence.

"Ping'er has never begged you for half a point in her life, but now she has a word, and she should have asked for your consent." Feng Shen thought for a moment and continued.

When the old lady heard this, she also traced her carefully, and choked up: "Ping girl, you say." ”

"I have spent my life in vain, living like a walking corpse, and now I am gone, only this girl has always been a person who can't let go of her heart, she is not blessed as a child, and she can't enjoy the slightest bit of my mother's goodness, I have dragged her down until now."

Feng Shen opened his lips slightly, and his eyes fell on Feng Wanniang on the other side, but he saw that she was also looking at herself in a daze, so she slightly hooked the corners of her lips.

continued: "She is my only blood and bones, in this deep mansion compound, how can she deal with a weak girl?" I beg you to take her in, let her stay by your side, and give her only food, so that she can serve you on my behalf, and fulfill my filial piety. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the room, and the ladies looked at each other, as if they were chewing something in their mouths.

Her eyes soon fell on Feng Wanniang, she didn't dare to raise her head, she just listened silently, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

Aunt Cui also felt that it was inappropriate, and glanced at the Lord Feng Geng beside her, her face was somewhat embarrassed, and she took a breath.

Tuggled the corners of her mouth and said, "Where is this big lady?" Sister Juan'er, this child is the most obedient, the concubine likes it very much, and will be her own ......"

As she was talking, she was glanced at by Feng Geng on one side, and realized that there was no room for her to speak here, so she shut up stupidly.

Old Madam Shen didn't look at her, snorted softly, and said indifferently: "The housemother of the family is still there, and my aunt is also anxious." ”

This is what didn't give Aunt Cui a good face, and when the voice came out, it was also shocking, and the gossip in the room stopped abruptly.

Feng Wanniang was still crying, pressing her head, and her eyes were rolling.

The hookah was still standing in place, but his heart had already flown out, and his eyes were cold.

When the family is beautiful, they greet each other in every way, accompanied by Yan Yan's smirk, until the day when people are about to leave, they can't cover their nature, and it is also cold.

Feng Shen's eyes were still staring at Old Madam Shen with longing, and the hand holding her became tighter and tighter.

After all, there is something wrong with it, but how could this Feng Shen give up? It's nothing more than a mother to pave the way for her own children.

In this regard, Mrs. Shen can't respond to the snake in vain, so she naturally has to think about it.

She only paused, and finally said lightly: "Leave the matter of the girl to me." ”

After all, it was not finalized, and Feng Shen's cicada-like eyelashes trembled, coughed a few more times, closed his eyes, and gasped for breath.

Feng Wanniang's heart was about to raise her throat, and when she heard Old Madam Shen say this, a coolness appeared in her usually soft eyes, and her hands squeezed the handkerchief tightly.

Seeing that Feng Shen was quiet at this time, Feng Wanniang covered the emotions in her eyes without a trace, and her heart became flustered, and her tears were like beads of broken threads, soaking the corner of the brocade quilt.

"I've been tormented for half my life, it's time to get a good night's sleep."

After a while, Feng Shen opened her mouth, she struggled to half-open her eyes, and looked at Feng Wanniang behind her, her eyes were full of pity.

said lightly: "Good girl, I've suffered you, I should crawl your dreams a few more times in the future, so that you don't feel sad." ”

Feng Wanniang's tears were about to dry up, and Mrs. Shen also moistened her eyes, so she only relaxed Feng Shen's hand, gave Wanniang a position, and was staggered up by Mother Chu behind her.

This time, he also brought a hookah, and sent everyone along the way, and walked straight outside.

Only the two of them were left in the house.

Feng Wanniang glanced at everyone leaving, and then slowly moved her body to take Feng Shen's hand and meet her gentle and godless eyes.

Feng Shen barely supported his pale hand, gently stroked Feng Wanniang's forehead, carefully combed her messy broken hair, and pulled out a smile: "Silly girl, the old lady won't want you, you are her granddaughter, and you have half of the Shen family's blood, you will be more pleasing in the future, say some good things, she will eventually take you back with a soft heart." ”

As he was talking, he helped his own wrist, and almost used all his strength to take off the jade bracelet on his head and bring it for Feng Wanniang in person.

The jade color is emerald green, the texture is thick, the color is good, and it is just right to wear it on Feng Juanniang's hand, and the skin color is white and delicate.

Feng Wanniang fixed her eyes to take a look, and then looked at Feng Shen's pale face, and sighed lightly when she saw her: "Blame me, I can't watch you go out in person, if you get the old lady's blue eyes in the future, in the Shen family, you will rot your mother in your stomach, although the eldest lady of the Shen family is not easy to get along, but if you have her protection, it is also good, in the future, polish your eyes, fight for yourself, find a good husband, the Feng family must be unreliable, this is his family's thin dowry." ”

When Feng Wanniang listened, she couldn't help nodding in response.

Before she could speak again, Feng Shen had already let go of her hand, and the corners of her mouth were still smiling, and she fell asleep deeply.

When she came out of the room, Feng Wanniang cried into tears.

The people outside knew what was going on, and they all lowered their eyes in silence, and Aunt Cui first led the way and cried, and then listened to the sobs in the room.

Old Madam Shen staggered, and she didn't need Mother Chu's support, she only walked quickly to Feng Wanniang, and when she saw her crying sadly, she took her in her arms and gently stroked her back, only allowing her to cry.

Feng Wanniang just lay in her arms, tears soaked Old Madam Shen's clothes, crying out of strength, only collapsed in her arms, sobbing in her mouth: "Grandmother, Wan'er has no mother anymore." ”

The hookah just watched quietly, silent, and she knew that everything was just beginning.
