C255

In the end, his mind was empty.

In the past, I wanted to take revenge. I wanted to let my mother have a taste of the pain of losing a child. But now, under the circumstances, my mother had suffered the same suffering as before, and even though I had lost my hope, I didn't feel happy at all.

After sitting for a while, my mother still didn't show any signs of waking up. However, I didn't have the patience to sit down anymore. I chatted with my mother and returned to my courtyard.

That evening, I was having dinner with Jiayi when Lan Leng rushed into the house. I threw my bowl of rice and went to talk with her in the inner room.

"Miss, the Madam said noisily that she was hurt by the two concubines and wanted the two of them to lay down the rules for her."

At this moment, the person she didn't want to see the most was these two concubines, right?

One carried the pregnancy she longed for the most, while the other indirectly caused her to lose the pregnancy.

[They don't look at me and don't get annoyed. Why would my mother do the opposite?]

"I heard that the Lu family's second young mistress didn't have a pregnancy when she was making rules for her old mistress."

Lan Lingyun whispered into my ear.

Would a mother really do such a stupid thing?

Then what was that mother Feng doing next to her?

Now I could not figure out what my mother was doing.

"Father is still at home. We don't have the right to care about this!" I smiled and patted Lan's hand, then turned and went out to continue eating with Jiayi.

The little child looked at me several times, obviously curious about what Lan Li had just said to me.

I thought, 'Isn't this the perfect opportunity to teach him not to overstep the boundaries of the altar.'

"Just now, Lan Lingyun came by to tell me that my mother wasn't feeling well and wanted Second Madame and Third Madame to attend to her. She asked if I wanted to do anything. Jia Yi, what do you think elder sister should do? "

"Should I stop my mother?"

The little boy blinked at me with his bowl.

"It's my duty to serve my mother."

The little boy looked a little wronged, as he obviously didn't want Aunt Mo to serve his mother. I couldn't help but laugh to myself. Judging from Aunt Mo's character, it was already good enough if she didn't scheme against her mother. What was there to worry about?

"Then elder sister wants to send the concubines over?"

I shook my head. "I told my concubines to serve the matriarch because of grandmother and father's rights. I could not interfere."

Although he was smart, he was still a child after all. He did not understand the principle of protecting his own life. He always thought about what he should do to protect himself.

"Then elder sister …" "Do nothing?"

It seemed as if he was unwilling to accept this outcome.

"Family righteousness, there are many things in this world that cannot be done as we wish. What we need to learn is to be able to adapt and gain a bit of freedom, so that we can live a bit happier. "

Young people always want to change this world. In the end, they only realized that time is like a carving knife that cruelly changes our appearances. Yet, they themselves still follow the same pattern.

I thought back to a few days ago, when I saw Jia Cheng reading "A trip to the Great Dao, a visit to the world."

In my free time, I asked him what the explanation of the Tao was.

That child is a reader of the Book of Holy Light, and he thinks that I have never been enlightened before. He goes on and on, explaining what is the path of a saint, the path of a gentleman, and the path of a king. I smiled as I listened to him, but when I saw his satisfied smile, I couldn't help sighing.

He thinks that Dao is the way of the world, but I think that Dao is the way of all things. He worships Confucius, and I the Old Manor.

By the time this child had experienced all the trials and tribulations of the world, he would probably understand that "doing nothing in peace" was a great joy in life.

The education of righteousness cannot be as sincere as that of the family.

He was the one in charge. He was destined to understand the principle of timing earlier than a person, and grasp the trick of taking care of people faster.

Seeing his confused expression, I sighed to myself.

Am I growing something?

"Today, Jiayi will take care of elder sister's house, and elder sister will be very grateful to you. Jiayi is a talented child, I'm afraid in a few years she will become a good helper for my sister. It was just that he had done the wrong thing today. "Since Jiayi returned the words of the mama in charge of the household, would it be better for the mums to listen to the family or to listen to the family's words in the future?"

At first, when I praised him, the child was a little proud of himself. However, after knowing that I was trying to say his mistake, his expression changed to one of fear. The moment I said that, he hurriedly explained, "I just did the right thing …"

The child in front of him probably didn't know. If Lan Li wasn't at his side, or if he had to account for it ten or eight times over, those mothers wouldn't dare to accept his cards to do business.

"Although we can only settle our debts at home, our mothers don't know. Maybe they will come another day to ask us about other things at home. If elder sister isn't here, what will happen to our family?"

The little boy was speechless from my question and didn't even eat his food. He only used the spoon in his hand to move the rice in his bowl and scattered it all over the table.

Although it was a bit cruel to a five-year-old child, it was still an essential step.

Only by knowing their own situation would they be able to do what they should do.

Normally, he would still stay here to eat some fruits, but today, he was sitting on the brick bed quietly playing with a cage made out of bamboo in his hand. He was obviously angry with me.

I ignored him, too, and hurried on with my work.

Big Miss Jiang wrote to me, saying that she came home the day before yesterday and stayed with her family for six days, inviting me to visit her in the near future.

I bought a jade pendant of the Five Blessings Hundred Sons, and was using the red silk thread to beat the string, preparing to give it to her as a gift.

After beating for a while and feeling a strange ache in his neck, he looked up and saw that Jia Yi had fallen asleep with the cricket cage in his arms, lying on the cabinet at the foot of the brick bed.

I smiled and took a blanket from the cabinet behind me and covered him with it. I moved the lamp on the table to my side and continued my work.

In the evening Lan Li came over to ask if I wanted to wake up the family. Wen Lian and Huang Ying were still waiting outside. I shook my head as I looked at his face, which had turned red from sleep. I tucked him in and said, "Tell them to bring the things that Second Young Master needs to wash up with tomorrow morning!"

This child had to wake up early every morning. He was also at the age where he loved to sleep, so it must be very tiring!

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but tuck him in again. I was teased by Lan Li's glib maid, "She was a girl before, but now she's a young master. Our young miss is just a little girl, but she's like the mother of a child."

Yes, when was I also the mother of children.

In this life, he would never have that possibility again.

The next morning, the two serving maids came in together with a copper bowl, a comb, a fragrant pancreas towel, and some other items such as clothes and jade pendants to help them get up from bed.

Jiayi was still asleep, wrapped in the blue brocade ball that I had covered him with last night. The blue brocade ball was leaning on the pillow of the mandarin duck, its small face shining like jade. Its long, curling eyelashes covered its eyes, making it look exceptionally cute and naive.

"Young master!" Young master! You should get up! "

Wen Lian went forward to gently push on my family's justice. She looked at me, who had already changed my clothes and was combing my hair, with an anxious expression on my face.

Could it be that this child usually gets up in front of me like this to establish some sort of rule?

It wasn't until I had combed my hair that the child woke up. He yawned and rubbed his eyes, trying to resist his sleepiness. He wanted the maidservants to help him wash his face.

After seeing how hard he worked, my heart ached for a while.

The road of life was long, and he didn't know how to face it.

After clearing his face, he had already completely woken up. Seeing that I was dressed properly, he hurriedly entered my room to change my clothes.

"Miss, last night when Aunt Chen was making the rules, she fainted and was picked up by Mother Du."

He didn't expect that at such a crucial moment, Madam Chen would be so astute.

I smiled and nodded. "Where did father rest last night?"

"The study room."

He knew how to avoid leisure!

"Where's Aunt Mo?"

"She was still in Madam's room, and sent Third Young Master to the old lady's room."

I secretly nodded my head, Aunt Mo was going to kill me.

His mother had just left his body and was not very strong. She should have been resting, but he had invited her into the house to serve him. This time, he was going to suffer.

In the end, Aunt Mo came from a peerless background. How could a young lady like her, who was born into an official family, accept such methods of subservient behavior?

When Lan Lingyun saw that the young master had come out, she immediately stopped and greeted him with a smile. "Have you had a good rest, young master?"

The little boy's face reddened, but he didn't answer Lan Li's question. Instead, he ran to me and said, "Big sister, I was wrong."

I knew he was talking about last night when I told him I shouldn't be my housekeeper.

Laughing, I carried him to the kang. The two of us had breakfast together, but I still took him to Grandmother's place.

Aunt Wang was serving breakfast to her grandmother and family members in the evening. When she saw me, she smiled at me gently.

After the salute, I smiled at my grandmother and told her that I wanted to wait until I had talked to my mother about my family.

Aunt Wang was a little surprised, and then she looked at the little boy in my hand as if she understood.

"That's good too!"

Although I was already yesterday yellow flowers, but the grandson is still on the heart.

"Miss Jiang, come back. Lady Jiang has posted a message for you. She wants to invite you to take a look, so take it easy."

Although it was a busy time at home, he still had to say what he had to say.

"Just prepare."

I didn't think my grandmother would agree to be a guest.

But the steward's life had taught me to remain calm.

I quickly smiled and retreated.

The next day, Grandmother and I went to Jiang's house. When we got on the car, the old lady told me that she woke up early and was a bit dizzy. I knew in my heart that I didn't want to ride with me, so I quickly smiled and sent Mother Du off and got into the first car. I took Green Cock and Mother Song with me to the last car.

Lan Li was left behind to deal with the household chores and to watch what was happening in my mother's yard.

As long as I think about how Aunt Mo is still sick in my mother's yard, I feel that this matter can't just end like this.

The car drove straight into the second gate, where Lady Jiang and the now married Lady Jiang greeted each other.

I got out of the car to wait on my grandmother,

While my grandmother was being greeted by Lady Xu and Lady Jiang, I nudged Lady Jiang with a smile and asked, "Is Second Grandmother Fang doing well?"

"Fuck you!"

Even though she was married, Miss Jiang still gave me a hard push with the girl's straightforward manner.

Seeing her embarrassed, I knew that she must have been living a good life, and I was happy for her, even though she had been quiet for so long.

Which couple hasn't had a few years to live?

"What's the matter with second sister? Ever since you left, she hasn't written to me. She hasn't replied to any of my letters and has only sent me some things. What does that mean?"

I've been busy at home lately and haven't been out much. Miss Wen and Miss Jiang were married again, so the only one left who could talk in the society was Second Miss Jiang. But this time, she changed her appearance and didn't write a single word to me.

Big Miss Jiang covered her mouth and laughed after hearing my words.

"What are you two siblings playing at now?"

I am going to scratch her, she flustered back, the two of them became a mess, making Lady Jiang turn around and point at us with a smile, saying to Grandma, "Look, these two are old Taoists. Together, they become children!"

The two of us hurriedly stopped what we were doing and arranged our clothes. When we saw each other in such a sorry state, we could not help but mock each other.

"Tell me, what is going on!"

I still wouldn't let her go.

"You still don't know? My mother told Second Brother about a marriage, and that was our cousin. He was waiting for Second Sister to marry him!"

I couldn't help but be stunned. In the blink of an eye, even Second Miss Jiang was about to marry someone?

"Don't be in such a hurry!" It's your turn next! "

Eldest Miss Jiang laughed and teased me. She pointed to the outer court as she whispered into my ear, "Recently, my brother has been saving up some silver coins in exchange for little gold ingots. He must be collecting a betrothal gift!"

In the end, she became a woman, so her speech became more casual.

I thought of that smile that was like a peach blossom and the refreshing smell of mint.

As the autumn wind blew, there seemed to be that same smell drifting in from the front yard.

My face was completely red as I kept pushing Miss Jiang forward.

"What nonsense are you spouting! "Look, I won't tear your lips off!"

"Ouch!" Big Miss Jiang pretended to be pushed back by me and still turned around to tease me. "I'm still unwilling to call you a little girl's shitty sister-in-law in the future!"

As the two of us were bickering, Qiu Yu hurriedly brought in a black lacquer box from outside. She handed it to Eldest Miss Jiang and bowed. "Grandmother, Young Master said your box fell on him."

Big Miss Jiang quickly grabbed the box with a blush on her face.

"Quick, look at what your husband, Baba, has sent you!"

It was my turn to laugh at her.

"It's for you!"

Big Miss Jiang shoved it into my hand. "I don't have this kind of thing on me, so I just let him take it!"

I couldn't help but to laugh in my heart. Maybe the young husband was afraid that he would have to work for his bride, so he volunteered to take it for his second grandmother!

Miasma oil. This was the description of the young couple at this moment.
