"Come in." Zhen Ping said with a smirk, turning sideways to lead Yao's way.

Yao's carriage was parked at the entrance of the alley, and she did not even bring her.

She stepped into the yard.

She is not coming, Zhen Ping is worried, she is coming, Zhen Ping is even more worried.

There is no other reason, the yard is too crude.

However, Yao's face was nothing unusual.

If he knew that the Yao family had been to a yard more rudimentary than this, and her biological daughter, son-in-law, and son had all lived there, he would understand why the Yao family was so calm.

Zhen Ping welcomed Yao into the hall, and said nervously and excitedly: "There is no hot tea, wait, I'll let Yuexiu burn a pot."

"Is her name Yuexiu?" Yao Clan looked at him and asked.

Zhen Ping was taken aback for a moment, and he was so bored that he confided his wife's name. He felt that this was not a good idea, but he said it all, and he couldn't take it back.

He bit the bullet and said, "Yes, Yuexiu, not from Beijing, but from a foreigner who came to Beijing to do business."

"People are very nice." Yao said.

Zhen Ping didn't know how to pick up these words. After a moment of embarrassment, he suddenly remembered the business and said to Yao: "My mother is in the next room. I will take you there. The home is really simple and neglected... I didn't expect it. You will come...I'm glad you came..."

Zhen Pingyu is incoherent.

Yao wants to say that you don't need to be nervous, and when the words come to your lips, you feel that you might be yourself.

Zhen Ping opened the thick cloth curtain and let Yao Clan into the house first. Yao Clan slightly bent and walked under the curtain he had set up.

This is the first time after more than ten years that the two of them are so close. The tip of Zhen Ping’s nose is full of her breath, but Zhen Ping did not let himself lose his temper. He tried to hold himself up high and did not touch To her.

After Yao entered the house, he also entered.

The room was filled with a strong smell of medicine.

I had a stroke a few years ago, and it is easy to get a taste after lying down for so long, but this room is not there. It can be seen that the husband and wife have taken care of the old man very well.

Mrs. Zhen was lying on the hospital bed with gray hair and pale face, withered.

Yao's memory was suddenly recalled more than ten years ago. Mrs. Zhen was a very aggressive temper, and she had more strength to work than a man. Who would have expected that she would be lying dying in a hospital bed like this one day.

She moaned but not a word, as if she was enduring great pain.

Yao didn't dare to look at it a second time, and quickly lowered his eyes, his nose sour.

Zhen Ping came to the bed, leaned over and gently touched his mother's forehead, and said, "Mother, who do you think is here?"

"Hmm..." Old Madam Zhen looked dizzyly in the direction Zhen Ping was pointing, and her turbid old eyes burst out with surprise, "Yao'er... Yaoer..."

Yao took a deep breath, held back his tears, walked over as usual, smiled slightly: "Old lady, it's me."

Mrs. Zhen stretched out her hand, wanting to sit up and take a good look at Yao.

Yao Clan sat down by the bed, moved closer to her, and said, "Don't get up, it's snowing today and it's very cold."

"Yao'er loves me." Old Madam Zhen said hoarsely. After the stroke, she was a little slurred, but she was also very happy.

Yao married into the Hou Mansion at the age of seventeen. Gu Jiao and Gu Yan were left at the age of eighteen. Fifteen years have passed, and now they are only thirty-three.

The years have treated her very preferentially, leaving no traces on her face, except for the innocence and youthfulness of a girl in her eyes, but this is nothing to Mrs. Zhen.

Mrs. Zhen took Yao's hand, joyously like a child: "Are you married in peace?"

Yao's stunned, turned his head, and looked at Zhen Ping unclearly.

Zhen Ping whispered: "My mother is suffering from dementia, and I remember many things, or I can't remember clearly."

Yao knows that it is indeed easy for people to get older.

Yao looked at Mrs. Zhen's expectant eyes and nodded: "Yes, we are married."

Zhen Ping's heart burst for a while, and the circles under her eyes were red.

Mrs. Zhen suddenly smiled like a child.

Mrs. Zhen is actually not dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law Yuexiu. Over the years, Yuexiu has been with her husband and son, serving in-laws, working hard and not complaining, and she is a little dull, but her conscience is not to be chosen.

It’s just that Mrs. Zhen knew Yao first. She never thought that the marriage between her son and Yao would be changed dramatically. She had taken Yao as a daughter-in-law in her heart.

In addition, one year old Mrs. Zhen fell off the ladder and was seriously injured, which coincided with Zhen Ping's exit from the country test. In order to prevent Zhen Ping from distracting, the Yao family secretly came out of the Yao family to take care of the old Mrs. Zhen.

They are not mother and daughter, but they are better than mother and daughter.

Later, the Yao family came over and retired, and Mrs. Zhen felt more sad than her son.

This incident became her long-cherished wish. She couldn't help mentioning it on weekdays. After changing into dementia, she couldn't help it. She talked about Yao'er all the time, why haven't you married Yao'er home?

"Then you can't be called the old lady, you should change your slogan to mother!" said Mrs. Zhen like an old child, with a serious face.

Yao choked and nodded: "Yes, mother."

Zhen Ping turned her back and wiped tears with her sleeves.

"Hey!" Mrs. Zhen smiled happily.

Yao put her skinny old hand in the quilt: "Beware of catching cold."

"I'm not cold." Mrs. Zhen said with a smile, thinking of something, she raised her right hand with difficulty and turned over the pillow on the left.

"What do you want? I'll help you." Yao stood up and said.

"Box, there...a box is pressed down." Mrs. Zhen said laboriously.

A simple action almost squeezed all her strength.

Yao leaned over and took out a small flat box from the left end of the pillow.

This box is a few years old, and the carving is a pattern from more than ten years ago, and the paint on the top has also fallen off. It can be seen that Mrs. Zhen often takes it out on weekdays.

Mrs. Zhen took the box.

Her hands trembled very much, and she still insisted on opening it by herself.

Inside is a pair of gold bracelets.

The color is excellent.

The style is very old.

Mrs. Zhen tremblingly picked up the bracelet and took Yao's hand. It was too trembling and didn't take it for a while.

Yao saw the beads of sweat coming out of her forehead.

"Mother, let me do it," she said.

"Okay." Mrs. Zhen finally put the bracelet on the Yao family, "I said that it was given to you when you got married. The family conditions are not good and you are wronged."

Zhen Ping failed in the provincial examination, and since then he has been in a slump. He hasn't passed the examination for many years. Later, he figured it out and gave up the road of imperial examination.

This pair of heads and faces was prepared by Mrs. Zhen more than ten years ago. She took all her dowry heads and faces to the shop and melted them. She wore a pair of gold bracelets with Yao's boudoir's name-Yao engraved on it.

This bracelet has been lying next to Mrs. Zhen's pillow for more than ten years, and Mrs. Zhen took it out and touched it when it was okay.

Zhen Ping always knew that his mother had a very precious box, but didn't know that it was actually a wedding gift for the Yao family.

Of course, when Yuexiu passed the door, Mrs. Zhen didn't treat her badly. She lent money to Yuexiu to buy a pair of golden noodles.

It's just that the meaning is different.

Yao Clan has been holding back since entering the house, but she couldn't help it for a while, she hugged Mrs. Zhen's hand, tears fell down her eyes!

Mrs. Zhen was terrified: "Why is Yao'er crying? Don't you like bracelets? Niang, Niang will buy you new ones!"

Yao shook his head with tears: "No...I like it...I really like it...Thank you mother...I'm so happy..."

Mrs. Zhen waved her hand: "Hey, what's so happy about a pair of bracelets? Huitou Ping'er was admitted to Master Juren, let you be a lady of Juren, and give you so many jewelry!"

Yao Clan spoke with Mrs. Zhen for a while.

Mrs. Zhen was sleepy, took Yao's hand and fell asleep.

Yao stayed in the room until Mrs. Zhen snored, then she gently took out her hand to tie the quilt to Mrs. Zhen.

Throughout the process, Zhen Ping in the house was ignored by his mother.

"Go out and talk." Yao Clan wiped his tears and said to Zhen Ping.

Zhen Ping drew the curtain to let Yao go out first, and then followed him out.

The two came to the hall.

There is hot tea in the hall, but no one is there.

I wanted to come here to be the tea made by Yuexiu, so put it down and left.

Zhen Ping took a deep breath and said to Yao, "Sit down."

Yao shook his head: "I have to go, I'll give this back to you."

As she spoke, she took off the bracelet from her hand.

Zhen Ping hurriedly grabbed her hand. He intended to stop her, but after realizing that his actions were wrong, he let go again: "Sorry...I..."

"It's okay." Yao Clan shook his head slightly.

She is very clear about his behavior, and he is not a frivolous person.

Zhen Ping said: "The bracelet is for you, accept it, and my mother will feel at ease. Otherwise, you will return it to me and I will let her find out at home. She should be stimulated again."

Yao thought for a while, but didn't insist.

"I'll send you." Zhen Ping saw her intention to leave.

"No," Yao said.

Zhen Ping smiled: "No, the door bolt is broken, and Yuexiu can't open it, and you may not be able to open it with your strength."

Yao did not refuse.

The two set foot on the corridor together and headed to the front yard.

The house is very quiet.

Zhen Ping suddenly said: "In fact, I didn't expect my mother to have been longing for my imperial examination. She told me back then, don't force it if you don't want to, and we don't have to study to live. I thought she was sincere..."

Today, after hearing what her mother said, she realized that her long-cherished wish was not to marry Yao as a daughter-in-law, nor did she see her son's title on the gold list.

He is very guilty.

Yao asked: "What did you do after you didn't study?"

Zhen Ping smiled: "I have done everything. I have been a teacher in a private school, I have been a biller at an inn, and I have also been to the dock to carry goods... Now I am a small tea maker."

He said, scratching his head, "In fact, life is not as difficult as you see. The business has been good in the past two years. I bought a house in East Street and will move over next month."

"It's great," Yao said.

After that, there was another silence.

Yao's mouth opened: "My eldest brother..."

Zhen Ping waved her hand and interrupted her with a smile: "It's all over."

Yao said guiltily, "I'm sorry."

The Zhen family only has one son, Zhen Ping. It is conceivable that when Zhen Ping was retired by the Yao family and her legs were broken by Yao Yuan, her old man experienced the heartache.

But after she suffered from dementia, she forgot all this.

She forgave.

Yao's throat was painful again.

"Here." Zhen Ping said. He glanced at Yao and his eyes were red. He hung his head hurriedly, "I'll open the door."

The two of them didn't say a word that shouldn't be said.

This may be the last time they met in their lives.

Something missed is missed.

There is no possibility of doing it again.

However, just as Zhen Ping was about to open the latch, the sound of a carriage came from the door.

"here?"

"Yes! It's here! I heard that man say it myself!"

It's Gu Houye and Gu Chenglin!

Yao's complexion changed!

Although Zhen Ping didn't recognize the voices of the two of them, he felt that the other person was not good, so he stopped pulling the latch and looked back at the Yao family.

Yao really didn't expect that Gu Chenglin would listen to her conversation with Zhen Ping in the restaurant.

And Gu Chenglin also brought Master Gu Hou to catch her own "traitor"!

Yao suddenly realized that things might not be that simple.

She asked Zhen Ping in a low voice, "Why did you go to that restaurant today?"

Zhen Ping thoughtfully said: "A customer asked me to go there for business talks, but it was strange that I went there but never waited for him."

Yao said: "Are you a guest you only met recently?"

Zhen Ping said: "Yes, what's wrong? Is there a problem with that guest?"

If things have developed to this point, if Yao still can't guess that it is Aunt Ling's handwriting, then it will be impossible to justify.

"I don't have time to explain to you now, is there a back door?" she asked.

Can't let Gu Houye see her here, Gu Houye will kill Zhen Ping!

Zhen Ping said, "Yes, but there are firewoods piled up. You have to move the firewood to open the door..."

"Hey! Open the door! Inside, open the door!" Gu Chenglin began to slap the door violently, "Huang Zhong, kick the door open!"

Yao's complexion changed, as he was looking for a room to hide, the door was kicked open with a creak!

Is there a monthly pass?

The kind that can summon miracles.
