Chapter 7: Sadness (3)
Shu Yao asked people to get warm water, wet hand towels, stepped forward and gently wiped Shu Ya's face, Shu Ya's eyes began to slowly move, and when she looked at her, she looked carefully as if she had seen a stranger.
Shu Yao's heart ached, and she called her sister softly, wiping her face and hands more carefully.
For a while, there was only the gentle and soft voice of Shu Yao in the room, like a bubbling hot spring, moisturizing the dry and cracked hearts of people.
Suddenly, a long gasp was heard, and Shu Ya let out a low voice in a hoarse voice......
Finally spoken! Finally recognized! Shu Yao hurriedly responded:
"Sister, I'm here, I'm here!"
The people who stayed in the room all gathered around, and Li Cunyi also got up from the chair, stood three feet away from the couch and looked at Shu Ya, his face was full of concern, and he muttered okay, okay, this is good......
Shu Yao held Shu Ya's hand tightly, only to feel that Shu Ya's hand was cold, thin and full of bones. Shu Ya's eldest maid Chun Tao held back a handful of tears and said:
"Second Miss, I'm boiling rice porridge on the stove, let the eldest lady eat a little!"
Shu Yao glanced at Chun Tao and answered, and Chun Tao turned around and went out in a hurry.
Not long after, Chun Tao not only came in with a bowl of hot rice porridge, but also brought Mother Liang next to the old lady of the Maoguo Mansion.
Liang's mother looks to be in her fifties, her hair is neatly combed, and although there is a sad face on her face, she is very gentle and respectful. She saluted Li Cunyi and Shu Jiao and said:
"The second master and the second lady of the in-laws, the slave and maid have said hello to the two of you. The two of you came from afar, and you worked hard all the way, and the first time you came, I didn't expect such a thing to happen at home...... The old lady wanted to come over in person, but the slaves and maids easily persuaded her. As soon as the matter of the eldest young master came out, her old man was sad that she couldn't eat or sleep, and cried all day. It's a little better, and the slaves and maids can't help but be sad when they come. Although the old lady did not come, she had been thinking about the grandmother, so she specially sent the slave and maid over, one to see how the grandmother was doing, and the other to arrange a table for the two of them - no matter what, the two of them had been through the wind and frost all the way, and when they arrived at this time, they had a lot of food to eat. ”
As he spoke, he brought in the food boxes and laid them out on the table outside.
To tell the truth, from the moment he entered the door, none of the Maoguo Mansion was smooth, and there was coldness everywhere, and even the people brought over by Shu Ya were not useful. Until this moment, Fang Jue had a little human touch.
Li Cunyi and Shu Yao thanked Liang's mother, asked the old lady how she was, and arranged for Chun Tao to help Shuya get up to drink porridge before sitting down. Shu Jiao didn't even have lunch, she had been on the road for a day, and she was already hungry by this time, but she didn't feel hungry, and she remembered her sister's side in her heart, so she couldn't eat. She hastily took a few bites, then put down the dishes and chopsticks.
Seeing this, Mother Liang, who was standing on the side, hurriedly asked:
"But the food is not to your liking? If the second lady has anything to eat, don't see it, just say, the slave and maid will arrange it tomorrow. ”
Polite and amiable. Seeing that Li Cunyi also put down the dishes and chopsticks, Shu Jiaofang cleaned his hands before saying:
"Mom, don't be careful, it's not that the food is bad, it's just that I don't have an appetite."
Mother Liang sighed and said:
"The second master and the second lady mourn, and they also persuade the grandmother a lot."
Turning his head to look at the leak, he continued:
"It's not too early, the old lady sent someone to clean up the Biyu Courtyard and Shulan Garden, the second master and the second lady should rest early. It's just a small burial today, and it's going to be a big burial early tomorrow morning, and there are still a lot of things to do. ”
Li Cunyi responded, went in and took a look at Shu Ya again, he didn't know how to persuade him, he just said that you should use more and take care of it, so he sighed, turned around, and followed the people arranged by Liang's mother to Biyu Courtyard.
Shu Yao didn't want to leave, she said:
"Mom thanked the old lady for her kindness. My sister is like this now, I still live here and accompany my sister. ”
In fact, the old lady also has this intention, but it is inconvenient to arrange it directly, listening to Shu Jiao say this, how could Liang's mother not agree, and hurriedly followed her words:
"It's good, it's good! The second lady and the eldest grandmother are close to each other, and they can't say anything between the sisters, so they can unravel and explain the eldest grandmother, the body is the most important, and nothing can happen to them. In this case, the slave and maid retired first, and Miss Lao Er took care of the eldest grandmother! ”
Shu Yao nodded, and Liang's mother took a few steps back, turned around and walked out of the house.
