Chapter 485: Terminally Ill
Mi Hongmian looked tired, and her eyes were red.
"My mother-in-law's health has improved a lot in recent years, but for some reason it suddenly became like this. The imperial doctor said that it may have something to do with the colder weather this year......"
Mrs. Qi said a clichΓ©, "Jiren has her own natural appearance, and Mrs. Dong will be fine." β
That's almost all the people who come to visit.
After sending the Qi family, Xun Xiang entered the bedroom.
Mrs. Dong was lying on the bed, her face was sallow, she was thin and out of shape, looking less inlet and more out, more haggard than when she was in Jiaozhou, and she looked terminally ill.
Although Xun Xiang knew that she should have taken some medicine to deliberately make it like this, she was still sad.
The day of farewell is drawing nearer.
Xun Xiang called softly, "Uncle Niang......"
Mrs. Dong opened her eyes and looked at Xun Xiang, and said weakly to Mi Hongmian, "There is Xiangxiang here, you go back and see Brother Cheng." β
With Xun Xiang here, Mi Hongmian returned to his yard with confidence.
There was no one in the house, Mrs. Dong stretched out a hand, and Xun Xiang put her hand in.
Mrs. Dong sighed, "I can't give up Ping'er and Cheng'er, and I can't give up you." In my heart and my lord's heart, you are our daughter......"
She made a pun, tears welling up in her eyes.
Xun Xiang said, "Uncle, I can't bear you, you have to be good." β
If Zhang's maternal love is the most primitive pampering and doting, what Mrs. Dong gave her is the most intellectual maternal love.
Be gentle and deep when you should be gentle, and help her resist all unkindness when you should be strong......
She knew that Mrs. Dong was most worried about Dong Ping and Dong Youcheng, and said with a pun, "In my eyes, my eldest cousin is my own brother, and in my grandfather's eyes, he is my own grandson...... You and we will always be one family. β
The two talked for a while, and another woman came to visit the patient.
Xun Xiang went to the hall to receive her and introduced Mrs. Dong's condition.
In the twilight, Dong Yi returned home, and Mi Hongmian also came with Xiaoyoucheng.
Xiao Youcheng has been more than four months, humming and reaching out for his grandmother to hug.
There were so many subordinates, Dong Ping took the child and asked the mother to pull her little hand, and then carried it to the side room.
The soft curtain was hung up, and Mrs. Dong looked at the little grandson in the other room stupidly.
After dinner, Mi Hongmian took the child back to his yard.
Looking at the situation, Dong Yiqi and his wife's plan was hidden from Mi Hongmian. It's not that I don't trust the daughter-in-law, but I don't want to let her worry too much.
A few people entered the bedroom and sent the people down.
Xun Xiang took out the family photo she had drawn.
Dong Yiqian and Mrs. Dong sat on both sides of the Eight Immortals Table, Dong Yiqian held Xiao Youcheng in his arms, and Dong Ping and Mi Hongmian stood behind them.
There is a photo frame on the table of the Eight Immortals, and inside is Dong Fang's avatar.
In addition to Dong Fang, the other people in the painting are like real people.
This is a colorful family portrait that was standard in the past life, and the size is not the standard banner vertical banner of this era.
Xun Xiang said, "Don't frame, just make a glass photo frame like a foreigner and put it in." β
Dong Yiqian and Mrs. Dong liked it very much, and looked at the painting for a long time.
Xun Xiang took out another "group photo", pursed her lips and smiled, "Uncle and aunt treat me like a daughter, and I want to be with you." β
In the painting, Dong Yiqi and Mrs. Dong are sitting on chairs, and Xun Xiang is standing and reclining beside Mrs. Dong.
Xun Xiang in the painting is very similar to Dong Fang in another photo frame, like Dong Fang who has grown up.
Seeing this picture, Mrs. Dong took Xun Xiang into her arms and whispered, "Xiangxiang, my daughter......"
Dong Ping's eyes were also red.
Dong Yiqi sighed and said, "In my hearts and Xiaomin's hearts, Xiangxiang is our daughter. In the future, when we are gone, you brothers and sisters must love and support each other.
"Ping'er has to take good care of her sister and can't let her be wronged. Xiangxiang is a precocious child, your brother, and other descendants of the Dong family, you also have to take care of it. Can't let Ping'er be blinded by glitz, just keep the title and enjoy the blessings. β
He had been planning for this son, hoping that while they were away, the son would not be left alone.
He not only hoped that Ding Zhuang's father and son would cherish their son more, but also helped his son find a powerful Mi family to be his son-in-law. But he knows that the one who can help his son and the descendants of the Han family the most in the future is still Xiangxiang.
But Xiangxiang is still a child. The sacred heart is unpredictable and suspicious, the foundation of the Ding family is not deep, Dongyang is reckless, Xun Qiandai is clear, and the ancestor of Xun is old......
If she is there, Xiangxiang still has something to rely on. I'm not there, Xiangxiang is too hard.
Dong Pingqiang held back his tears and said, "Don't worry, Dad, my son will remember his father's teachings and will take good care of his sister." β
Xun Xiang knew Xun Yiqi's thoughts, and also said, "The eldest cousin is my own brother, we will support each other......"
Dong Yi nodded and said solemnly, "You are a smart child, I believe you have guessed some things." Although I admire Emperor Qingguan, I hate Zhenkang, the dog emperor, who listened to the greedy rumors and killed my Han family.
"Because of this hatred, I don't believe in the emperor, and the emperor doesn't believe in me...... In order to keep the bloodline of the Han family as much as possible, and the surname Han is open, I have been looking for an opportunity to stay away from the Great Li Dynasty...... In the future, no matter where Xiao Min and I are, we will always think about and bless you. β
"There are some things that we will deal with first. In my early years, I got a few commercial houses in Mingzhou Mansion and Guangzhou Mansion, leaving two for Ping'er and two for Ding Zhao.
"I have already told Ding Zhao that I will give Xiangxiang a ...... in his name in a few days Alas, Xiangxiang has helped me a lot, and the only thing my uncle can give you is these yellow and white things. β
Dong Yi raised his hand to touch her face, thinking that she was already twelve years old, and this was Da Li, he put his hand down and patted her shoulder.
Dong Ping shook his lips, but he didn't say what he said.
My father said that their mission was to find another paradise for the descendants of the Han family, but that road was too difficult. And his mission is to stay in Dali to preserve the bloodline for the Han family......
Mrs. Dong's external name is Yang Min. Xun Xiang knew that Concubine Li's surname was Li, and Mrs. Dong's surname should also be surnamed Li, but she didn't know the specific name.
Dong Yiqian spoke, and Xun Xiang also said clearly, "I have always known that my uncle and aunt are good to me. I am also a descendant of the Han family, and I hope that the Han family can prosper and pass it on......"
Xun Xiang's tears welled up, and she couldn't bear them.
They are here, they are her reliance and dependence, and many things that she can't do are done by them.
Mrs. Dong wept again.
From the bottom of her heart, she doesn't want to leave her youngest son, and she doesn't want to go to the unknown world to fight for an unknown future. But if her husband chooses that path, she will support and follow it without hesitation.
Suddenly, she opened her mouth wide and couldn't breathe.
Dong Ping hurriedly asked Mama Wang to come in and make a bowl of powder to feed her, and serve her to rest.
Mama Wang is the absolute confidant of the Dong family, and she will go away with them in the future, and she knows many things.
Dong Yiqi took Dong Ping and Xun Xiang to the Westinghouse for a secret talk.
