Lin Xi walked in, "My cousin and I made a bet, and my cousin lost."
It turned out that the two princesses had also arrived. After Lin Xi and the other two walked in, the Crown Princess smiled and said, "You chose a good time. You arrived together."
Zhenyue, "Meet sister-in-law."
Little Princess Jingxuan, "Meet sister-in-law."
Lin Xi finally spoke, "Sister-in-law."
The Crown Princess was very happy. "I will prepare your favorite snacks. Let you taste the cooking skills of the chef in the mansion."
Lin Xi was the most generous of the three. She sat down and took the food without hesitation. “I just didn’t have much breakfast.”
Zhenyue was already a grown-up girl, so she sat down and didn't eat anything. It was rare for the little princess to go out of the palace, so she was curious about everything. Seeing her cousin eating with relish, she also took some and ate it.
The Crown Princess asked, "What bet did you make just now?"
Lin Xi smiled and said, "I bet that my future brother-in-law would be waiting at the gate of the palace, but my cousin didn't believe it, so I lost."
Zhenyue blushed, "You are the weird one."
Lin Xi snorted, "Cousin, don't you want to see Master Wu? If you didn't want to see him, you stopped me from passing on the news yesterday."
Zhenyue's face turned even redder, "I can't argue with you."
The Crown Princess was stunned, she didn't know much about the eldest princess's engagement, she was preparing for her marriage at that time, and of course because the eldest princess was not born by the Queen Mother, she didn't pay much attention to it and thought it was an engagement without any feelings. Now seeing the eldest princess's blushing face, the princess and her husband had a mutual affection for each other.
The little princess suddenly said, "In the future, I want to find a great hero to be my consort."
Yuwen, "..."
The Crown Princess and others, "..."
After a while, Zhen Yue reluctantly said, "Have you listened to any martial arts novels recently?"
The little princess said, "Yes, it was written by Concubine Chen. I think the story is very good. It is so free and easy to travel the world with a sword."
Yuwen's eyes were a little distracted. This was all her grandmother's fault. It was her grandmother who started it all. As a result, Concubine Chen fell completely in love with her. She really wrote a lot of good stories over the years.
The Yu family’s ancestral home, today is the day that Yuyi sets out on her journey. If she doesn’t leave now, winter will be approaching. Yuyi also expected that she would have to stay in the Yu family for such a long time.
The old lady stood at the gate of the mansion, holding Yuyi's hand tightly and not letting go, "Take care of yourself on the way."
Yu Yueyang supported his grandmother and said, "Don't worry, your grandson will take good care of Yuyi."
The old lady really couldn't bear to let go. She had few granddaughters, and Yuyi was a likable child, more caring than her grandson. If she hadn't had to leave, she would have wanted to stay a few more days.
Yuyi said: "You have to take good care of yourself."
The old lady said, "Okay, okay."
Yu Yueyang, "... "
So having too many grandchildren is worthless, and then he felt happy, thinking that he had good vision!
As the carriage went away, Yuyi could still see people at the gate of the mansion. Yujiao said, "The old lady is afraid that she won't be able to wait until my sister gets married."
The old lady is old, so she is particularly reluctant to part with her sister.
Yuyi knew, "I wonder if grandpa and grandma are okay?"
Yu Jiao, "I'm finally going back to the capital. I miss my grandparents."
Yuyi thought to herself that she must ask the doctor more questions when she got home, as her grandparents are not young anymore.
Yu Jiao suddenly spoke up, "I thought I would meet my cousin at Yu's house, but I didn't expect to meet nothing."
Yuyi laughed, "You've read too many picture books."
Yu Jiao said: "It only shows that the Yu family values rules, and Ningzhou has many accidents."
Yuyi curled her lips and asked, "Didn't Dad clean up the mess?"
At the beginning, Brother Minghui was plotted against. Dad liked to use open schemes. So what if the connections were complicated? As a result, he used the opponent's force to defeat him. When they left, they all behaved themselves.
Time flies, and the first snow of this year fell in a blink of an eye. Zhou Shuren took a leave today and stayed in Rong Yuyun's yard.
Zhulan waited for the imperial physician to come out and sighed in her heart. She had been taking good care of her fourth uncle's health. Yesterday, the old man secretly left the house. Zhulan sent people to chase him, only to find out that the old man had gone to the Rong family's cemetery.
The old man went to visit his own grave. After sending him back, Zhulan asked the doctor to take his pulse. Even though he had taken precautions, he still had a fever last night.
Ming Teng paced back and forth anxiously, "Why did you suddenly go to the cemetery?"
Zhou Shuren, "The old man has been repeating some names recently."
Ming Teng was worried, "Grandpa, great-grandpa will be fine, right?"
He knew that some elderly people were sentimental, and he really didn't want anything to happen to his great-grandfather.
Zhou Shuren, "Don't worry, it will be fine."
The imperial physician came out quickly, opened a pharmacy, and revised the prescription for recuperation. As long as the temperature dropped, everything would be fine, and he needed to be taken care of more carefully in the future.
Zhou Shuren breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you for your hard work."
The doctor said, "As it should be."
Zhou Shuren didn't leave. After the old man drank the medicine, he waited for him to wake up.
In the afternoon, the old man woke up after his fever dropped. The illness had taken away his energy and spirit. After waking up and taking a while to calm down, he asked, "You've been watching over me all this time?"
Zhou Shuren, "Yeah."
The old man curled his lips and said, "I have enjoyed your blessing all these years. When I die, I will thank your mother."
Zhou Shuren curled his lips and said, "Who knows, my mother has already been reincarnated."
The old man looked deep and said, "No, they are all waiting for me to go down and tell them that the Rong family has successors. They are all waiting for me."
Zhou Shuren sighed, "You must live well."
Rong Yuyun looked at Ming Teng who was standing there, "I have nothing to worry about."
When he went to the cemetery yesterday, he seemed to hear many people talking in his ears. He couldn't hear what they were saying, but he no longer felt resentful. He could not forget the feeling when he just returned to the capital to pay homage, the resentment that could make people crazy.
He thought that they must be waiting for him, waiting for him to tell them everything that had happened over the years so that they could let go of their obsession and be reborn.
Zhou Shuren felt heavy in his heart. It was said that alcohol could not kill people who wanted to die. The imperial physician said that if he took good care of himself, he could still live. But his uncle's words clearly showed that he did not want to live. "Why did you suddenly go to the cemetery?"
The old man took a sip of water and said, "I've been dreaming a lot lately. I dreamed about playing and studying with my brothers when I was a kid. I dreamed about climbing a rockery. I dreamed about a lot of things."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on his face. This was his most precious memory. At that time, the Rong family was still the Rong family.
Ming Teng couldn't help but shed tears, "Grandpa, I'm still young."
The old man smiled, "You are not young anymore since you are a father. I have handed everything over to you. You have handled it well without my help."
Ming Teng regretted it. He originally wanted to relieve his great grandfather from worrying, so he tried not to disturb him. However, he ended up causing his great grandfather to give up.
Zhou Shuren sat in silence, his eyes never leaving the sick old man on the bed. There were age spots on his face, and this illness made him look even older. Did he really want to persuade the old man
Rong Yuyun noticed his nephew's sad eyes and said, "I have lived a fulfilled life. I have enjoyed wealth and glory, and experienced hardships. I have lived a wonderful life. Let nature take its course."
After saying that, Rong Yuyun took out a box from the cabinet beside the bed and pushed it to his nephew, "I'll give this to you."
Zhou Shuren took the box and asked suspiciously, "What's inside?"
Rong Yuyun said: "You will know once you open it."
