In Lin'an City in March, it rained lightly for several days.

Pedestrians on the road are in a hurry.

The Marquis of Anyuan's mansion was extremely busy, the slaves went in and out, the house was draped in white silk, and the coffin was carried in last night, I heard that ...... Just waiting for the old lady in charge to take her last breath, she immediately started to do things.

Zhao Mingruo, the old lady of the Hou Mansion, saw all this with her own eyes, and her old face could not see the expression, so she stood aside like this, silent for a long time.

"Old lady, don't be too careful, the next people just make more preparations, you will be fine, the doctor said that as long as you survive the beginning of spring, you will be cured."

Mama Fu secretly wiped her tears.

"It's okay."

Now, Zhao Mingruo, who is full of gorgeous hair, has seen what is happening behind him with his own eyes, but he is a little more free, "Ah Fu, the apricot blossoms on the mountain are blooming, I want to go to Xinghua Village to take a look, you can take a carriage and pick me up." ”

I have lived for decades, I have been in danger, I have enjoyed, I have been beautiful, and I have no regrets at this age.

She knew that her deadline was approaching, and she didn't want to cry and separate on her deathbed, she just wanted to walk quietly by herself.

"Do you want to inform the old marquis?"

"No need."

The apricot blossom forest in the western suburbs is about ten miles long, so it is called ten miles of apricot blossom village, every spring, the apricot trees are full of apricot blossoms, and it is beautiful.

This is where she and her husband first met.

After the Hou Mansion proposed, Zhao Mingruo came over to let people buy this land, and carefully built a house here, just looking forward to when the husband and wife could come to live together.

It's a pity, there are too many things in the Hou Mansion, she is too busy to take a break, she and her husband are busy, and after decades of time, she has time to come and take a look.

"Don't cry, everyone will have that day."

Zhao Mingruo looked at Ah Fu, who was secretly sad, but came over to comfort her.

The carriage drove smoothly, and the scenery around the road became better, the mountains and forests were foggy, the green of the weeping willows was covered with a layer of water vapor, and the small and delicate pink and white apricot blossoms were adorned with branches, which was very beautiful.

Out of nowhere, a few seven or eight-year-old children gathered around the tree, folding flowers and picking apricots, and laughing.

Mama Fu was angry, "Where did so many wild children come from, and they actually practiced the apricot trees that you ordered to be carefully raised by the old lady like this, and the slaves and maids will go to drive them away for you!" ”

"Let them be."

Zhao Mingruo watched them frolic with longing eyes, if she hadn't slipped and hurt her body, she would also have a son and daughter, and when they got married, their grandchildren should be so old.

Husband and wife are white-headed, and children and grandchildren are full, which woman doesn't have the luxury of spending her life together so smoothly.

It's a pity that she can't achieve her wish in her life.

The bluestone steps on the mountain are full of pink petals, and when you get here, you can't go immediately, you can only walk on your feet, Zhao Mingruo is old, and he is out of breath after walking a few steps.

"Old lady, it's still raining outside, or let's go back." Mama Fu comforted her distressedly.

Zhao Mingruo frowned, "Let's take a look." ”

Smoke came out of her house, and there was a bamboo pavilion in the courtyard, and inside the stone table, a steaming meal was being placed.

"Husband, the meal is ready, I'll call the children back for dinner." The woman is extraordinarily gentle.

"Evening sister, you've worked hard for a long time, I'll go."

The man in a gorgeous brocade dress gently pulled up the green silk scattered on the sideburns for the woman, and carefully wiped the fine sweat on her forehead.

"Younger sister, our childhood sweetheart, you have worked hard for me to have children, but unfortunately the business manager in the Hou Mansion is a good hand, and the prosperity of the Hou Mansion is inseparable from her, otherwise we can't be as happy as we are now......"

He said regretfully, "When my mother was leaving, I regretted that I couldn't let you marry into my Hou Mansion, so I could only place you in a private house, and I really wronged you." ”

The woman smiled softly, "I'm not wronged, as long as I can be with my husband, even if I have no name, I'm willing." ”

"She's going to die, then you and I will be upright, I will have to hold a wedding banquet, and marry you beautifully, fortunately, I didn't let her give birth to that wild seed at the beginning, otherwise the Hou Mansion may really be calculated by her......"

The two hugged each other tightly.

Zhao Mingruo suddenly laughed, smiling and smiling with tears in his eyes.

At that time, she was full of expectations to marry the second young master of the Hou Mansion of Anyuan, but on the day of marriage, her husband was arrested and imprisoned, and the men in the house were implicated and imprisoned, and the Hou Mansion was in chaos, and her mother-in-law was hit and sick in bed.

She begged everywhere, avenged her husband's grievances, treated her aunts well, carefully raised her children and nephews, married wives and families for them, and cultivated talents.

Forty years have passed, and she has worked hard for the Hou Mansion all her life.

The sideburns can't hide the silver threads, and the smooth and delicate face is also full of wrinkles, but the woman raised by his husband outside looks so young and gentle.

She thought it was because she slipped the tire and injured her body, so she couldn't give birth...... That's why couples get separated......

In the end, their children and grandchildren are full of family happiness, but they live in pain and guilt for the rest of their lives.

Gu Changheng, it's so hard for you to lie to me.

Zhao Mingruo staggered around and coughed up a mouthful of blood, which dripped onto the apricot blossom petals, staining the original pink and white scarlet.

Mama Fu hurriedly went to support the old lady's body, "Old lady......"

Unfortunately, there was no response.

——

In early February, the spring was light and cold, and the drizzle turned the snow into hoarfrost covering the lush greenery, and the scenery outside the window was misty and unreal.

Zhao Mingruo sat at the pear wood desk and carefully copied the Buddhist scriptures.

Ah Fu pushed the door in, his little face was red from the cold, and he said with great interest, "Madam, Qingshan is back." ”

The door opened suddenly, and a trace of cool air blew in, which made Zhao Mingruo's mind much clearer, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she was reborn in the second year of marriage in her previous life, and she was still a little uncomfortable.

"Let him come in and talk back."

"Yes."

A sturdy man in his early twenties came later, he was wearing a cyan robe and a delicate face, "Mrs. Yu, the villain went to check the traces of that Yun girl, and found that she was not in Hengyang's hometown, but in Lin'an City, and she was still ......."

Shen Qingshan hesitated.

"Say."

"Still living in the apricot grove house you bought in the western suburbs......"

Zhao Mingruo's hand holding the pen paused, the pen edge stretched on the paper, the ink spots on the rice paper blurred, and her heart also cooled, filled with hatred.

She and Gu Changheng, the second young master of the Hou Mansion of Anyuan, had just married, and the Hou Mansion was involved in the case of King Wei's rebellion.

Zhao Mingruo has a strong nature, sells his dowry and private property, and carefully serves his mother-in-law's bedside, and finally avenges the grievances of the Hou Mansion and her husband, and supports the Hou Mansion stubbornly.

In exchange for the husband's marriage, he was outside with other women, you and me, and the whole Hou Mansion helped the husband betray her, deceive her, use her, and trap her miserably and blamed herself in the Hou Mansion for a lifetime!!
