Chapter 166: Shouzhi


Rongzheng was led by the maid to the courtyard of the fourth room.

Unlike Mrs.

Cui's place where people were coming and going, this place seemed particularly quiet.

Not even the chirping of birds can be heard.

Before Rongzheng stepped into Min's bedroom, a maid had already passed the news for Rongzheng.

Then the maid opened the bamboo curtain for Rong Zheng and invited her in.

Rongzheng smelled a strong smell of medicine before she even stepped into the house.

After entering the house, a maid dressed in plain clothes walked towards her and saluted Rong Zheng.

"Greetings, grandma" Rongzheng glanced at the canopy bed behind the screen and asked softly: "Is your wife awake?"

The maid said: "Grandma, please come in, our wife is awake at the moment."

Rong Zheng turned around the screen embroidered with flowers of wealth and glory and walked to the bed.

A half-old green gauze tent hangs on the canopy bed, and a woman is lying inside the tent.

His scorched face was lifeless at all, and his body was half covered with a new, pale-colored quilt.

"Fourth Mrs."

Rong Zheng called in front of her while sitting on the edge of the bed.

Min glanced at her with dull eyes and said feebly: "It's grandma here."

She was about to sit up, but Rong Zheng held her down and comforted her: "The fourth wife is not feeling well, so just lie down."

Come on, don't move."

Min said apologetically: "I'm sorry.

Where is the princess?

Is she here?"

Rong Zheng shook his head and said: "The princess is not in good health either, so she asked me to come on her behalf."

Min said: "Let the princess worry about it."

After a few words, Rongzheng secretly wondered.

Min's tone was very calm and his emotions were well controlled.

Maybe after so many days, she has accepted it.

"After such an accident, there is no possibility of recovery now.

Please express my condolences, madam."

Min shed tears in front of Rong Zheng for the first time.

She didn't try to hide it at all and let the tears roll down onto the pillow.

She looked at the tent ceiling with a somewhat hollow look, a little remorseful, and said with great sadness: "His father and I only raised one son, because after having him, the doctor said that I can no longer have children.

Now he But his father and I have left first.

Do you want to live this life again?"

"Master Qi is gone and he will not come back.

Madam, please take care of yourself."

Min said: "I always blame him.

If I knew that such a day would come, I would definitely take back those words."

"Madam, the medicine is here" A female voice came from outside the screen.

Rong Zheng was still a little puzzled, and hurriedly looked up, only to see a figure flash across the screen.

What appeared in front of her was Li Wuniang, whom she had not seen for twenty days.

The fifteenth mother was slightly surprised to see Rong Zheng here.

She quickly returned to her normal appearance, nodded and said: "A Zheng is here."

Rong Zheng stood up and said, "I'm here to offer incense and libation to Master Qi on behalf of the princess."

The fifteenth mother held a lacquered plate in her hand, and placed a cup of medicine that had just been boiled.

There is a small plate next to it, which contains a piece of fortune cake.

She whispered: "Madam, it's time to drink the medicine."

The fifteenth mother temporarily handed the plate to the maid behind her, and then went to help Min sit up.

Wrapping a green handkerchief around Min's neck.

Waiting for Mrs.

Min, she took the medicine, wiped her hands, and handed the blessing cake to her hand.

Rong Zheng watched blankly from the side, seeing that Fifteen Niang was very meticulous in her work.

His words are gentle and gentle, and he is a very considerate person.

After taking two bites of the fortune cake, Min didn't want to eat any more, and handed the remaining cake to Fifteen Niang.

The fifteenth mother frowned and said, "Isn't this sweet today?"

Min said, "It's too sweet."

She glanced at Rong Zheng again and said, "Grandma, I don't have enough energy, so let the fifteenth mother accompany you."

Rong Zheng naturally followed the arrangement.

Then she followed Fifteenth Mother to a room next door.

"Zheng, what kind of tea are you drinking?

There are Biluochun, Queton and Xinyang Maojian."

"Me, whatever you want is fine."

The fifteenth mother made Rong Zheng a bowl of Biluochun.

Then he sat quietly next to Rong Zheng, with his hands folded on his thighs.

The eyes are gentle.

Rong Zheng looked at Fifteen Niang carefully.

She wears a bun with a hanging bun, but it doesn't look like any pearls.

The silk ropes tying her hair were all replaced with white ones.

She also wore a white silk flower on her temples.

The clothes and skirts are all of the same fine linen.

After she was shocked, she realized that Fifteenth Mother was wearing mourning clothes for Cui Shangzhou.

"Fifteenth mother, what are you doing?"

Facing Rongzheng's surprise, Fifteen Niang seemed very calm.

She smiled bitterly and said, "Can't you see it?"

"But you haven't entered the Cui family after all.

If you do this, have you thought about the future?"

"Everything has been arranged for the future.

They adopted Uncle Xiang's son from the Fifth Uncle's family into the name of the Seventh Master.

Although that child is a little timid, I see that he is quite smart.

As long as he kowtows too much and offers tea, I will She is his mother.

I will teach him well in the future.

He is literate.

With our relationship with the Li family, it will not be too difficult for him to take the imperial examination and pursue an official career.

I heard that he has already passed the enlightenment, and it is really difficult for him to do so. , I am such a small person, I still can’t hold a pen very firmly.”

"That's enough."

From the moment Rong Zheng heard the news yesterday afternoon to now, although she has cried a few times, she has never been as uncomfortable as she is now.

Choking, she put her arms around Fifteen Niang's shoulders, let her head rest in her arms, and said sadly: "Actually, you don't have to do this.

Widows can still remarry, not to mention you haven't married yet, you still have a future.

Don't Bury your whole life here."

Rong Zheng couldn't bear to see Fifteenth Mother living a miserable and lonely life guarding an heir.

A lively and lovely girl like Fifteen Niang should not end her youth early.

The fifteenth mother snuggled into Rong Zheng's arms and said with silent tears: "This is the path I will take in the future, otherwise what else can I do.

He passed away suddenly and will never be seen again in this life.

Him, but I can't I will follow him and live a good life for him, honor my parents-in-law, and although I cannot raise a son whose blood is in his blood, I will definitely raise this heir as my own and will always enshrine his legacy."

Fifteen Niang's words made Rong Zheng feel pain as if his heart was being ripped out.

She choked and said: "Fifteenth Mother, don't be stupid.

Your life is not over yet.

If they force you to do this, I will go back and tell the princess to come forward and let them finally let you go.

If the seventh master has a spirit, , and I don’t want you to keep it.”

The fifteenth mother said dreamily: "No one forced me, I was willing to do it.

Although I couldn't marry him while I was alive, I hope that I can be buried next to him after my death, and that the words "Cui Men Li" can be engraved on the monument. ” Rong Zheng cried harder and harder, her heart was filled with turmoil, and she secretly complained to Fifteen Niang.

"You silly little girl, all his tenderness has been given to another woman, what can he give you in the end?

If you lie next to him a hundred years from now, he may not be moved by you."

These words struck his mind.

He turned around, but Rongzheng didn't dare to say anything.

"Zheng, let me tell you a secret that I have never told anyone."

"Um."

"I like him.

I told him in front of his coffin, but I don't know if he heard me.

I will say this to him again when I go underground in the future."

"Fifteenth Niang" Rongzheng felt as if needles were pricking her heart, and she hugged Fifteenth Niang tighter.

When Rong Zheng saw Li Wuniang's infatuation, she knew that no matter how hard she tried to persuade her, it would be useless.

Apart from heartache, she didn't know how to comfort Fifteenth Mother.

After returning to the villa, she went to the princess to report the Cui family's affairs.

"How is Min's situation?"

"When I was talking to her, I saw that her condition was not bad, much better than expected.

Later, the fifteenth mother told me that it was because of the medicine.

The doctor prescribed antipsychotic medicine."

Duan Hui said: "Suffering such a big blow is unbearable for anyone.

Xiao Qi is really a person who values ​​​​love and justice.

Over the years, as long as Jun Hua and I give orders, we have always helped him run forward without saying a word.

After running away, he left early.

We still need to treat Mr.

Min well."

Rongzheng had no objection to the princess's actions.

"When you met the fifteenth mother, how was she?"

Rong Zheng said solemnly: "The fifteenth mother is so stupid.

I heard that the Cui family has chosen an heir for the seventh master.

The fifteenth mother said that she would be the heir's mother and keep her will for the seventh master for the rest of her life.

I don't care what other people think of this matter. , She hasn’t even entered the Cui family, she hasn’t been the Cui family’s daughter-in-law for a day, and she’s been hooked up with her for the rest of her life so easily.

Princess, do you think she’s stupid?”

Princess Duanhui was also quite surprised.

After a while, she said: "This child is so thin and weak that it is difficult to tell that he has such ambition."

"Does the princess also think that the fifteenth mother should guard the seventh master?"

Rong Zheng looked at Duan Hui in surprise.

Duan Hui smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't say that.

If she really planned this, it's obvious that her future would be very miserable."

She thought of what happened in Fujian.

When Ji Bin died, the head of the Ji family also said that he would choose an heir for Ji Bin and raise him in her and Ji Bin's names.

Her mission for the rest of her life was to raise that child.

The Ji family's plan was too obvious, and she didn't want to live a gloomy life in the Ji family.

With the help of her father, she chose to return home.

When the dynasty allowed widows to remarry, there were many princesses who had remarried before them.

But she still chose to live alone and stay with Ji Bin for the rest of her life.

She has no regrets either.

It's just that she and Ji Bin were a loving couple for several years.

Although he died, the love they had had was not extinguished.

She is willing to stay with him for the rest of her life, and no one else can do anything to her.

"What about the Li family?

Will the Li family let the fifteenth mother do this?"

Duan Hui said: "The fifteenth mother is a concubine girl.

I heard that her biological mother is the aunt raised by the maid.

Her status in the family can be imagined.

As her aunt, Mrs.

Li might be happy to see it happen.

She is not raising it herself.

I don’t feel bad and can earn a good reputation as a virtuous and loyal person.

Isn’t it the icing on the cake for the Li family?”

The princess's analysis was not wrong, but it made Rong Zheng feel chilly.

Is it possible that Rong Zheng is the only one in the world who doesn't want Fifteenth Mother to embark on such a path of no return?

"The funeral has been scheduled on a certain day" Rong Zheng said: "It's the first day of next month."

Duan Hui nodded and said: "When the time comes, you can take him on his last journey for me."

Rongzheng said nothing.

Soon it was the first day of May, and Qixia Villa also held a road festival on the way to the funeral.

Rongzheng still changed into Yuebai's clothes and went to see Cui Shangzhou off for the last time.

She saw Brother Xiang, who was wearing linen and wearing mourning, holding the memorial tablet in grief.

She also saw Fifteen Niang, who was also wearing mourning and was closely following Brother Xiang.

In the white sky, the figures of these two people are particularly eye-catching.

Rong Zheng looked at their figures for a long time and couldn't help but burst into tears.

It was too far from the Northwest Camp to Bianliang, and Mu Xuan did not rush back to see Cui Shangzhou off in the end.

Rongzheng thought that when he came back, he would be so sad when he couldn't see his former friend.

After finishing this work, Rongzheng went home and stayed for two days.

When they returned to the villa, the Cui family sent a servant girl to invite Rong Zheng to come over to the Cui family.

Rongzheng asked what was going on, and the servant girl said, "The eldest wife and the fourth wife want to express their gratitude to eldest grandma."

Rongzheng thought to herself that she was just following the princess' instructions, so she said thank you, "We have a close relationship with Master Qi.

When he leaves, we should see him off, so why don't we thank him?"

Later, Duan Hui heard about it and said to Rong Zheng, "You go and relax for a day and then come back.

It's rare for someone to come to invite you."

"But" "There's nothing going on at home, so go ahead."

Only then did Rong Zheng realize that she couldn't shirk away, so she followed the servant woman in the car to Cui's house.

Although Ms.

Min still looked not in good condition, she was able to get out of bed.

The fifteenth mother helped Min to the flower hall here.

Rongzheng hurriedly stood up, her eyes swept over Min, and finally landed on Fifteen Niang.

Her eyes were calm and her face was gentle.

"Grandma is here, please sit down quickly."

Rongzheng sat down again.

The fifteenth mother considerately helped Min sit down, and stuffed a brocade bundle behind Min's back.

"How do my siblings feel today?"

Mrs.

Min glanced at the fifteenth mother beside her and said, "It's okay with the fifteenth mother taking care of her."

Mrs.

Cui looked at Fifteen Niang with a smile and said, "You are really a good child."

The fifteenth mother lowered her head silently.

In front of the elders, she behaved very humbly and meekly.

Min then said to Fifteen Niang: "I'm going to talk to grandma and sister-in-law.

You can go and sit somewhere else."

The fifteenth mother agreed obediently: "Okay, madam, please don't be too tired."

When she left, she accidentally glanced at Rong Zheng.

Rongzheng was keenly aware that the two wives of the Cui family must have something to say to her, and it was probably about the fifteenth mother.

Then she should be more alert to deal with it.

She couldn't bear it when the fifteenth mother came to this point.

She didn't want to see the fifteenth mother feel wronged again.

If the Cui family dared to treat the fifteenth mother badly, don't blame her for being rude.

"Excuse me, grandma, for making this trip.

It's been a hard journey."

Mrs.

Min apologized.

Rong Zheng said hurriedly: "I came by car, it's not hard.

It's not hot either."

Mrs.

Cui ordered her maid to refill the tea bowl in front of Rong Zheng, and made herself ready to have a serious discussion with Rong Zheng.

"We don't dare to invite the princess to come and sit down, so we have to work hard for grandma.

If there is any rudeness, please forgive me."

Rongzheng said hurriedly: "Madam, you're too polite
