Old man Zhao died.

Everyone in the Zhao Mansion had heavy faces.

Because the Zhao family is still an exiled family of criminal ministers.

Therefore, the funeral of Old Man Zhao is simple.

Everyone changed the filial piety clothes that had been prepared before, and the descendants of the Zhao family stayed in the mourning hall of the old man Zhao.

Ye Jingzhao, as the granddaughter-in-law of the Zhao family, also changed into a newly tailored filial piety dress.

She knelt beside Mu Yanzong.

Mu Yanzong hung his head and didn't say a word.

It wasn't until he noticed that there was a figure next to him that he raised his eyes and took a look.

When I saw that it was Jing Zhao's sister.

A flash of surprise flashed in Mu Yanzong's eyes, and he said, "Sister Jingzhao, thank you." ”

Ye Jingzhao shook his head slightly, signaling that he didn't have to care about this.

The third lady, Xie Shi, was standing on the side.

The maids brought are now helping the Zhao family.

Now there are no descendants in this house, all of them are the descendants of the Zhao family.

Although the Son of Heaven gave grace and let the Zhao family live here, in the end, he was still a family member of the guilty minister, and there was no one to serve him.

Wang's mother became the chief steward.

Fortunately, the Zhao family is at the border, and there are no relatives on the side, they are all these people in the family.

Three or two tables are enough.

After three days of rest, Old Man Zhao will go to the city for burial.

The night vigil is the old man of the Zhao family and his two grandsons, and the rest is the only grandson of the old man Zhao, Mu Yanzong.

Ye Jingzhao slept with his mother.

When I went back to the room to rest, it was the end of the day.

The border pass is bitterly cold, and now the climate in Kyoto has gradually warmed up, but the border pass is still like the middle of winter.

Although there was a charcoal fire in the house, it was still a little cold.

The third lady, Xie's mother and daughter, put on their middle clothes and went to sleep.

With the burial of Old Man Zhao.

Mrs. Mu Zhao was full of exhaustion and slept all day.

Only then did everyone wake up in their worries.

In the middle of the night, Zhao can always remember the time when her father played with her when she was a child.

She seemed to be a child when she was a child, wrapped around her parents.

In the blink of an eye, she had become a mother.

Now, she has sent away her father, and she has not dreamed of her mother's Zhao family for many years.

This time, I finally dreamed of my mother.

Her mother was still twenty-six, gently rubbing her hair and gently coaxing her to sleep.

She is her father's first child, and she is also officially born.

In childhood memories, her parents were loving, and she was the only pet in the family.

Later, her mother died when she was seven years old.

But half a year later, my father married his stepfamily and returned home.

Since then, she has been without a father in her heart.

The stepfamily that her father married, at first, also treated her very well.

I think it's because I've always been cold.

The stepmother ran out of patience, so she grew up on her own and never took care of her again.

Zhao felt that this family no longer belonged to him.

Later, her younger brother was born, and her presence in the house became even lower.

Two years before getting married, my stepmother also died.

looked at his younger brother who was kneeling in front of his stepmother's spiritual throne and wept bitterly.

It was as if she had seen herself all those years ago as a child.

Even though the father has been trying to mend the relationship between father and daughter.

But at that time, the Zhao family had reached the age of leaving the cabinet.

I only think about getting married earlier, where can I still think of this father.

Before the accident in the Zhao family, her father came to see her.

Said a lot of things.

Zhao's heart was sour.

After the Zhao family was in trouble, her husband suddenly became seriously ill.

She was caught in a dilemma, and her heart was in great pain.

In the end, she did not wash away the grievances of her mother's family, nor did she keep her late husband.

Mrs. Mu Zhao looked at her son who was guarding the couch.

Squeezed out a wry smile and said, "Zong'er, tomorrow, let's leave for Kyoto." ”

Mu Yanzong nodded lightly and did not say anything more.

The face is haggard and lonely, and I can't hide it.

It's a little sad to watch.

The carriages were all prepared beforehand.

Master Zhao learned that the eldest sister was leaving.

Specially brought his wife Fu Shi here.

I learned that my younger brother was coming with my younger siblings.

Mrs. Mu Zhao sent her son out.

There was no one else in the house.

Master Zhao and his wife Fu bowed to the eldest sister who was already sitting on the soft couch.

"Come today, but what's the matter?"

Zhao looked at his younger sister Fu and spoke slowly.

Fu Shi secretly looked at his husband, not knowing how to speak.

Old Man Zhao frowned, sighed, was still cheeky in the end, and said to the eldest sister, "Eldest sister, my younger brother has never asked you for anything. ”

"Now, I beg my eldest sister to bring Mianmian back to Kyoto."

"The kindness of the eldest sister, the younger brother will never forget, if there is a chance in the future, he will definitely repay the eldest sister."

Fu knelt in front of Mrs. Mu Zhao, holding back tears.

The voice was also a little hoarse, and she begged, "Eldest sister, if there is really a way to do it, I will not embarrass the eldest sister with my master." But ......"

"But now, I really don't have any way with my master."

The family members of the guilty ministers are not allowed to enter Beijing without a purpose.

This year, the Zhao family stayed quietly at the border, and there were no delusions on the side.

But who knows, her daughter Zhao Mianmian has come to the border, and her body is getting worse day by day.

Now he is only seven years old, and he is as thin as a kitten.

It looks like she is malnourished, and her face is much more sallow than that of a woman in her early forties in Kyoto.

When Zhao first saw this niece, he was also extremely shocked.

It's just that the situation of her and her son in the Hou Mansion made her put away her pity in the end.

Now the title of marquis is undecided.

If you take your niece back to Kyoto.

It was played to the Son of Heaven by someone with a heart.

That is a capital offense.

Mrs. Mu Zhao did not speak for a long time.

Master Zhao just sighed and didn't force it.

Fu Shi couldn't stop crying.

Mrs. Mu Zhao, who was watching, was pricked by a needle in her heart.

Mu Yanzong has been guarding the door and has not left, talking in the room.

He listened to the whole picture.

He pushed open the door and walked slowly inside.

He bowed his hand into the house and said, "Mother, uncle, aunt." ”

When Fu heard his nephew's voice, he hurriedly stopped crying, turned his head away, took out the handkerchief, and wiped his tears.

"Uncle, I was about to tell you about this, when I came, I specially asked for grace for my cousin, and this time, I took my cousin back to Kyoto."

Mrs. Mu looked at her son in surprise, and had never heard her son mention it.

I was afraid that my son didn't want her to embarrass her, and wanted to open his mouth to stop her.

"Mother rest assured, the son has really come to the heart of heaven in this matter, and the mother doesn't have to worry."

Mu Yanzong saw his mother's worries and opened his mouth to explain.

Mrs. Mu Zhao will be suspicious.

Fu Shi was overjoyed, and hurriedly looked at his nephew, seeing him nodding solemnly.

Fu got up and walked to her husband's side, full of relief.

Master Zhao looked at his nephew with approval in his eyes, "Zong'er, you are a good boy, if you have a heart, your uncle will not forget your kindness." ”

In fact, Master Zhao also has an eldest son, who is now ten years old.

But the eldest son is a man in the end, and his body is much stronger than his daughter.

Looking at her daughter's figure every day, how can parents not feel distressed.

When parting, Zhao Mianmian tightly grabbed the curtain of the carriage with both hands.

His eyes were frightened and he looked helplessly at his parents and eldest brother.

In the end, he could only grab his brother's arm and call, "Brother, brother......"
