The day after Qin's arrival, he realized that his daughter was too busy to do so. She and Xiao Nuan accompanied Princess Yi to gossip for a long time, and then took the spring rolls sent by Mrs. Ning of Taifu Mansion, and Mrs. Li's invitation was sent and invited the Qin family to come over for tea.

Qin Shi took the invitation card, and his heart was a little unhappy. The girl is a month old, and she doesn't have enough time to take care of her daughter at home and prepare clothes for her grandson, so how can she have time to run from the south of the capital to the north of the capital to eat tea!

"If we live in the fourth village, and the old lady lives in Lijiazhuang, it is right to go over and see, and if we are so far away in the city, my mother will not go, right?" Qin discussed with Xiao Nuan. Besides, Empress Li's previous incident of bullying the noble concubine and beating Huayu made the Qin family unhappy and didn't want to see Mrs. Li.

Although Xiao Nuan didn't want her mother to go, she still persuaded, "My daughter heard that Mrs. Li's body is not as good as before, since she sent an invitation, you can go over and have a look." ”

Qin Shi was stunned, "It's serious?" ”

Xiao Nuan nodded, "Shuangcheng went to see it the day before yesterday, and he couldn't get out of bed anymore." ”

The old lady is a little old-fashioned, and she doesn't have a good time every winter, and she went to see her when she left, and she was fine at that time, why can't she do it after only a month. Qin asked in a low voice, "Are you anxious about the affairs in the palace?" Why didn't Princess Yi mention a word? ”

Empress Li was grounded, and the Qin family also heard about it.

Under the promotion of scholars and courtiers in the capital, the call for the seventh prince to be the crown prince has been higher than that of the second prince, and Empress Li is still grounded, so it is impossible for Mrs. Li not to be in a hurry. Xiao Nuan didn't want to talk to her mother about the situation in the court, so she said, "It's not good to say." ”

The Qin family is a soft-hearted person, and when she heard that Mrs. Li was not in good health, she took a carriage the next morning, Xiao Nuan was not at ease, so she asked Cui Qiao, Green Butterfly and He Fenglu to follow together.

When he arrived at the Li Mansion, he was welcomed into the inner courtyard by Li Qiutong, the third girl of the Li Mansion, and after seeing Mrs. Li, Qin's heart was tight. It's only been less than a month, and Mrs. Li's face is pale and her lips are purple, which is really not as good as before.

At Qin's age, she had already seen a lot of old people of the previous generation who were about to die, and she knew that Old Madam Li was like this, it was really going to be over.

Seeing that Qin's eyes were red and he couldn't speak, Old Madam Li was also a little moved. There are a lot of people who come to visit her these days, and the words are more than good to say, but I am really sad, except for Qiuyang, who has not been married for a long time, it is the Qin family.

After Mrs. Li asked Qiu Tong to lead the people to retreat, she raised her hand and held Qin's hand. Qin is accustomed to farm work and housework, her palms are calloused, rougher than the flesh of a large lady, but her hands are soft and hot.

A woman with such a hand has a good heart and knows how to hurt people, Mrs. Li held her hand and felt that her heart was also warmer, she held her spirit and said, "You just came back, there must be a lot of things going on in the Zhuangzi Mansion and Xiao Nuan, and the old man really shouldn't have called you over at this time." ”

Qin Shi hurriedly shook his head, "There are many people in the family, not one of them." If I had known you were sick, I would have come here yesterday. ”

Old Madam Li smiled, and then said, "I don't know how many days I can last with my body, so I called you here, I have something to say to you." ”

The old lady was about to tell the future, Qin straightened up, tears rolling in his eyes, "You say, I'll listen." ”

Old Madam Li closed her eyes and said in a low voice, "The old body has been strong for a lifetime, and no matter how difficult it is, it is also suffering, and she never opens her mouth to beg for help." I'm leaving, but I have to open my mouth with you. ”

The Qin family immediately understood what the old lady was going to say, although it seemed that she was too unkind to reject the old man at this time, but the Qin family still hardened her heart, "Old lady, Qin Lan really doesn't want to ...... in this life"

"The old body knows, and he knows." Old Madam Li patted her hand and gasped for a moment before she continued, "If the old man is standing in your seat, he will think the same way. But the child is the meat that falls from the mother's body, no matter how old or when, what the mother can't let go of is the child......"

Isn't that the case, her heart is now full of Xiao Nuan and Xiao Cao, for the sake of the two of them, the Qin family can even risk her life.

The old lady closed her dry eyes before she said, "Xi Ran, this child, has been sensible since he was a child, and he didn't let the old man worry about him in the first half of his life, but since his daughter-in-law went, the old body can no longer let go of this heart, after the old body goes, the marriage between Housheng and Qiu Tong is married, and there is only one Xi Ran left in the family, a lonely ......."

Saying this, Old Madam Li's tears also fell, and it was uncomfortable to see her crying Qin, the tears fell down, her mouth was tightly closed, and when she didn't know what to say, she could only not say it.

When the old man arrived here, the Qin clan didn't dare to promise anything. I can't do it after I promise someone, but I will be damned.

Mrs. Li paused for a while, and then continued, "Lijiazhuang has been almost repaired, and the old body will move back in a few days." After the old man is gone, Xi Ran will definitely be in Lijiazhuang, with his age, Ding Wei will not enter the office again. ”

"The old body doesn't ask you for anything else, after Xiao Nuan gives birth to a child and you move back to the fourth village, if you see him across the fence or meet him on the road, just say a few words to him, don't let him even have someone to talk to in the future. People must have a thought in life, right? After speaking, Old Madam Li looked at the Qin clan with cloudy eyes.

She knew her son's temperament, every time he finished talking to the Qin family, he was not in a bad mood, and Mrs. Li couldn't persuade the Qin family to marry, so she would retreat to the second best thing, so that her son could have someone who could talk to him.

Qin reminded Old Madam Li with a sigh, "The fence between the two Zhuangzi has been replaced by an old high wall. ”

Old Madam Li couldn't help laughing, "Also, the old body's memory is really not successful." After that, when you meet him on the road, he talks to you, so don't ignore him. ”

Of course not, Qin immediately nodded.

Mrs. Li saw her relieved appearance, and wanted to say a few more good words for her son, but she was afraid that it would be too much, so she stopped and asked about Xiao Nuan and Xiao Cao instead.

After Old Madam Li fell asleep due to lack of energy, the Qin family retreated softly, but saw Li Xiran in the garden. I haven't seen him for a month, and he is also a lot haggard, Qin Shi thought about what he promised Old Madam Li just now, so he thought about going over and talking to him.

What do you say? Qin's head turned for a while, and then he picked out a suitable sentence, "Xiangye, the old lady is asleep." ”

Li Xiran nodded, "There are Lao'an people who come to visit my mother in their busy schedules. ”

"It's not busy." After answering, Qin opened his mouth a few times before he said, "The old lady is sick, and the prime minister should also pay attention to his own body, don't let the old lady worry about you anymore." ”

With Qin's temperament, it is not easy to say such things. Li Xiran saw her looking down and counting the floor tiles, and didn't want to embarrass her, so he replied softly, "Okay." ”

Qin breathed a sigh of relief and bowed in return.

Seeing her leave, Li Xiran raised his hand and called Zhong Xiu, "What did the old lady say to Qin Anren?" ”
