It was also a few days later.

After Feng Shen's burial, the silent atmosphere in the courtyard was finally eased.

I don't know how long I stayed in Mrs. Shen's room yesterday, and the hookah only remembered that when I occasionally looked out of the window, it was already a bright moon.

At that time, Feng Wanniang was also there, she only sobbed and cried, which made the old lady sad for a long time, and several groups of people also took turns to comfort them for a long time.

Because it was late, I was tired these days.

The hookah fell asleep on the table unconsciously, and then was woken up by the jade, when she raised her eyes again, Feng Wanniang had already returned to the house, and she had a sleepy eye and said a slight resignation to her grandmother.

She didn't wake up until a ray of sunlight shone in through the window in the early morning.

The hookah got up lightly, and sat down in front of the makeup for a while, when the jade also crept in.

The hookah glanced at her, freshened up for a while, waited for the medicine, rinsed her mouth carefully, and then went to see Mrs. Shen in the main house.

The girl in the courtyard of the main house was also busy, and only did what she was doing, and when she saw the hookah, she saluted her respectfully and welcomed her in.

The people in the main house are also Qi.

Old Madam Shen and Feng Li sat on the kang and chatted happily. And sitting on the big Luohan chair on the left side of the lower head is my uncle Feng Geng and Aunt Cui.

When everyone saw someone coming, they were also silent, and they all looked down together, and Mrs. Shen saw that it was a hookah, and she also grinned, her eyes were full of love.

The hookah raised his eyes and looked at a few people, then he closed his gaze lightly, lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, and pressed the lotus step to salute a few people.

When I got up, I heard a gentle female voice: "A few girls, and they all gather on the side to have fun, Sister Yan will also go over and be with them." ”

As soon as the voice came out, the hookah smiled back, saw the grandmother's meaning, made a slight speech, and went to the side room with a few diameters of the jade.

Seeing people leaving, Old Madam Shen turned her eyes slightly to look at Feng Li's, her eyes fluttered, and she sighed lightly.

It was because of Feng Shen's illness that he came, and this time the people are gone, so there is nothing left to stay.

Then, he said lightly: "Thank you Mrs. Li for taking care of our ancestors and grandchildren, and now that you are concerned, you should go back, so you don't bother." ”

"Where is the old lady, just treat you as her own person, even if you live for another ten days and half a month, we will be happy in our hearts." When Feng Li heard this, his smile became even brighter, and then Yan Yan answered.

Old Madam Shen smiled and pressed her head, but she didn't speak, holding the tea and sipping gently.

Feng Li glanced at her, lowered his head, and his eyes wandered for a while, and then he continued to raise his eyes, and muttered: "My younger brother and sister are also unlucky, they went at such an age, making the old lady so sad." ”

As soon as these words came out, the room was silent for a moment, only to see that Old Madam Shen's face sank visibly.

Her eyes flashed with water, and she shook her head lightly, as if relieved: "Everyone has their own life, she has suffered for half her life, this time she is gone, it should be good, the whole of those lines is just to be a living person." ”

"Yes, the old lady is right to think like this, but it's my mouth, you are fine, and you will come to provoke again." Feng Li chuckled.

Speaking of Feng Shen's family, the rest of the people in the room were silent and didn't speak, Feng Geng's face was even more pale, he didn't want to mention his eldest lady, all these years she was just a costly and laborious medicine jar, and now that people are gone, it will add to the trouble.

Seeing this, Aunt Cui raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at her, and came out to play a round: "Everyone is only talking about the day, this tea is good, this time it should be cold, and it is not good to import it." ”

Feng Geng glanced at his aunt, his face was slightly soothed, and he put his hand on his lap, his fingers grinding gently.

Feng Li also could hear the meaning of the words, and he also smiled wryly, raised his hand to climb the tea cup on a few pieces, and took a bite: "Yes, my mouth is dry, it's good to eat some." ”

The atmosphere in the room also cooled down, and then I heard the sound of the curtain outside, and then a girl came in, and she only took a small copper chopstick to gather the coals in the brazier, and then she went out.

Old Madam Shen was silent for a moment, her eyes fell on the cloisonné enamel incense burner for a while, and she hesitated for a while looking at the wisps of green smoke emitting from the furnace.

Only then did he say lightly: "When I go back this time, I want to take the girl with me." ”

As soon as these words came out, several people were stunned, Feng Li's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he glanced at Old Madam Shen, and then subconsciously looked at Feng Geng.

Seeing that he just paused, and there was no strange look on his face, Feng Li lowered his eyes and smiled, and said softly: "I know that the old lady loves her granddaughter, but when I think about it, I'm afraid it's inappropriate." ”

After that, he gently put aside the teacup, looked at the side, lowered his expression, and said thoughtfully: "The old lady is the wisest person, although my brother and sister are gone, but no matter how you say it, the girl still has a respectful head, you know this reason best, if this girl goes with you, it should be seen by others to laugh at it." ”

As he was talking, Feng Li glanced at Mrs. Shen, Yan Yan smiled, moved his body forward, and continued: "People live for nothing more than to be skinny, and the girl is going here, the Feng family will not only be scolded by others, but even she herself will be looked down upon by others. ”

As soon as these words came out, Feng Geng still didn't say anything, but Aunt Cui, who was under her head, couldn't sit still at first, and only echoed with a smile.

Old Madam Shen only hooked her lips and smiled, and she saw through the thoughts of these people, it was nothing more than for the face of her own Feng family, and under the guise of caring for Feng Wanniang, she had a clear conscience in her own room.

It's also ridiculous and pathetic.

After thinking about it, Old Madam Shen looked at Feng Li with her eyelids, and her tone was not salty or light: "I know this reason, Mrs. Li doesn't need to panic, when my thin-lived daughter goes, she was also specially instructed, like this, it is only considered to be her thoughts." ”

"I know that the old lady loves my sister, but if she doesn't like it, she has also been sick for a long time, and she said foolish things at that time, you don't have to take it seriously, all in all, this girl is very obedient, her mother went, and we came to hurt her."

Feng Li said, the smile on his face froze, and his tone was cold, and he only sat down with his slightly leaning body.

Old Madam Shen glanced at her, snorted coldly in her nose, her eyes fell on the hot tea for a while, and said lightly: "Since you said this, then I have a sentence to ask here, you really mean to treat the girl well, what about the first, what about the girl?" If it hadn't been for my cigarette girl to stop it in time, it would have been the girl who suffered. ”

After all, it's hard to swallow this breath.

As soon as the voice fell, Old Madam Shen remembered something again, and she couldn't get angry, so she added coldly: "I think, the sisters in this room can't tolerate the girl, it's better to hand her over to me, my old bones should be able to pull her up." ”

These words also displeased everyone, Feng Li listened to it now, his throat was choked, and he only held his anger in his stomach, feeling that this old lady relied on the old and sold the old, which was unreasonable.

He glanced at her lightly, and opened his mouth to say something.

The old lady Shen only raised her hand slightly, straightened the hem of her skirt slightly, and didn't look at it, so she said unhurriedly: "After all, it's the internal affairs of the second room, the head of the family is here, and it's the father of the girl, I should say something, but don't just leave my sister-in-law to take care of it." ”

Feng Geng's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, he put it down, rolled his eyes, and got up slightly: "What my mother-in-law said is that this child is sensible and filial, but, as my sister-in-law said, the elders in the family are still there, and I haven't gone to the next house." ”

Hearing this, Old Madam Shen pounded the case hard, and her tone was very dissatisfied: "Hmph, you are very powerful, you don't care about your wife and children, why do you say this now, you actually know how to care about face!?" ”

These words hit Feng Geng's face like a slap, and it also gave him no face, his heart was stabbed and hurt, but he never replied immediately, and still made a gesture of giving up.

"When have you ever cared about the face of your wife and children? Now you have to worry about the Feng family's idea, what is the face? Since ancient times, it has been a dead end for a concubine to kill his wife, but you walked happily, leaving only your eldest lady to suffer in her life, and her face was lost early, so you don't have to think about saving something. Old Madam Shen continued to say nonchalty.

Aunt Cui's face was already not good, and now seeing that the lord was counted, it was not good to sit anymore, so she got up tremblingly, and only knelt down: "Old lady, don't blame the lord, they are all concubines, you blame the concubines." ”

Hearing this, Feng Geng also hurriedly turned his head around, and only glanced at her: "Your concubine is very lively here!" ”

All of this was fully seen by the old lady Shen, her face softened slightly, and continued: "If you really have the heart to be a good girl, then be a father's responsibility, let her live well, and don't let her be wronged in vain." ”

When these words entered Feng Geng's ears, he didn't think about it, but only made a deep gesture to the old lady: "The son-in-law should listen to his mother-in-law's teachings. ”

Then, the old lady Shen pinched the bridge of her nose and whispered to a few people to get up, not looking at Feng Li on her side, but only said lightly: "Do you have any objections?" ”

Everyone was silent, and they all lowered their eyes silently.

Feng Geng rested for a while before continuing to pick up the conversation: "Wan'er is raised by her mother-in-law's side, and she should be the best if she has done her filial piety." ”

Hearing this, Old Madam Shen pressed her head in satisfaction, glanced at Feng Li, and saw her smiling, so she glanced at her and said "um" lightly.
