However, before this smile even took shape, it was broken by the obvious aura on the side. My lips slowly pursed into a line. I turned my head and saw Xie Feng walking over from the side.

He bowed to me and said, "Miss Yan."

"Mr. Xie," this time, I slowly laughed, but there was no smile in my eyes: "This time, I have to work hard for Mr. Xie."

Of course he understood what I meant, and lowered his head and said, "It's neither going to the mountain of swords nor the sea of ​​fire, so it's not hard."

"That may not be."

I curled the corners of my lips: "Care for someone like me may be more troublesome than taking up a mountain of swords and falling into a sea of ​​fire."

He said: "Miss Yan said this, but I was a little embarrassed."

"Oh? Why don't you feel sorry?"

"I feel that if I don't work harder, I'm sorry for the young master's entrustment."

"How do you know that I won't let you work hard?"

"...This is true," he nodded again: "Then, but by Miss Yan's order."

My eyes were bent and I said, "I'm just a joke. Mr. Xie should not be scared by me. Finally, all the people who do big things have left. If you are just living a life like me, what can I do to send you? What I'm afraid of is that Mr. Xie will be bored and become unfamiliar with his kung fu when he stays here."

He also smiled and said, "I can't be unfamiliar."

Hua Zhu stood aside, blinking her big eyes at us, as if she was listening to us having a good conversation, but after careful consideration, it seemed that it was not the case at all. She probably couldn't figure out what was wrong with this, so she just walked to Xie Feng and said softly: "Master, then I--"

"You're still the same as before."

"oh."

"When the young master left this time, he kept reminding him to protect Miss Yan's concern. No matter what happens, including anyone close to Miss Yan's room, you must go back and forth to me one by one, and you cannot hide anything. Otherwise, if something happens, your teacher will not be as easy as before."

Hua Zhu immediately clasped her fists nervously and said, "I understand, I'm sure."

“…”

I stood aside, of course I knew that these words were for me, but I remained calm and finished listening with a smile, then turned around and walked to the other side.

Xie Feng immediately said, "Where is Miss Yan going?"

I smiled and said, "I finally didn't bother me, I want to go and chat with Mrs. Zhang."

"Look for her?"

"Yes," I smiled and said, "Two days ago, Old Lady Zhang's bad attitude towards his wife, probably also made both the young master and the wife very angry. I didn't go to see her much. Now, they have finally left, so I'll go to talk to the old man."

Xie Feng hesitated for a moment: "But, this old man is already confused."

I smiled and said, "I'm confused, how can I live a living person?"

“…”

He was stunned, and I waved my hand with a smile, meaning that he would not follow him and would leave on his own.

Xie Feng stood there, as if hesitating for a while, Hua Zhu seemed to walk to him and asked tentatively if he wanted to follow him. Xie Feng didn't say anything, but soon he heard his footsteps following him.

The weather is pretty good today. I slowly walked to the garden of Old Mrs. Zhang. Just as I was about to knock on the door, I saw two servants standing outside the door, who had been following Song Huaiyi before.

When they saw me, they all came up to salute.

I nodded and said, "I'm here to pay homage to the old lady."

The two men said, "Miss Yan may have to wait for a while. Our master is talking to the ancestors inside."

"oh……"

I glanced at the door and it was indeed closed. The two of them made a gesture to the side: "Ms. Yan, please sit in the side hall and have tea."

I smiled and said, "Okay."

So I walked over slowly, Xie Feng followed, and the maid immediately served two cups of hot tea. He stood behind me, without any intention of moving. When I just picked up a bowl of tea and prepared to drink it, I heard a very heavy sound coming from the room over there.

"Mom, my son does all this for our family's sake."

I just stood in the yard and didn't hear the sound in the room. Obviously, Song Huaiyi was still talking, but when he said this, it was not too loud, but the heavy feeling penetrated the doors and windows and reached my ears.

My eyebrows were slightly raised.

The loving voice of Old Lady Zhang also came from the room: "Of course I know that my son has worked very hard over the years."

"I am not afraid of hardship, but I am afraid that after the hardship, I will get nothing."

“…”

"Mom, it is not easy for our Song family to establish a family. We cannot remove all our roots just because of some laws and regulations that the court ordered them to change every day!"

"What? What rules? I can't understand."

“…”

"What the hell is my son talking about?"

"Mom, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Son... I just have too many things in my heart. If you say something to my mother, I feel better."

"If my son works hard, he will think about things more and let go."

“…”

"Didn't you say a long time ago that you should cherish your blessings?"

“…”

After saying that, Song Huaiyi did not speak anymore. The room fell into a long silence. After a while, even the tea in my hand became warmer, and then he heard his low voice: "Mom, have a good rest, my son has something to do."

"Well. Don't be too tired. When you are free, come and see you more often."

"yes."

After a while, the door opened.

I saw Song Huaiyi coming out of it. He had just said that he would feel better after talking to his mother, but when I saw the expression on his face, it seemed that there was nothing to do with the feeling. Instead, the folds on his eyebrows became deeper. He stood at the door for a while and looked back.

Then, he walked down the steps.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Just as I walked to the center of the yard, I turned around and saw me standing up from a chair in the side hall. He opened his eyes slightly and turned around: "Ms. Yan?"

I smiled and won: "Mr. Song, I'm disturbing."

He looked at me, then looked back at the door of Mrs. Zhang's room and said, "Did Miss Yan come to see her mother?"

I smiled and said, "I hope I haven't disturbed Taijun's rest."

He paused for a moment and didn't speak immediately. Instead, he looked up and saw Xie Feng standing behind me, and said with a smile: "Where? We children have too many things to do on weekdays and really can't take too much time to come and spend with our mother. She likes to be with Miss Yan very much. With Miss Yan's company, her mother's smile has become much more."

I smiled and said, "I like the old lady very much, too."

At this moment, Old Lady Zhang's voice came from the room: "Is it my daughter-in-law?"

When he heard this, Song Huaiyi and I looked at each other, and he said apologetically: "Please forgive me, my mother is really confused."

I smiled and waved my hand: "The old man is willing to get close to me, but I can't ask for it."

After saying that, he nodded to him and turned around to walk inside.

After walking two steps, I heard him call me again—“Ms. Yan.”

I stopped and turned around: "Mr. Song, do you have any instructions?"

Song Huaiyi seemed to hesitate for a moment, especially when he saw Xie Feng not far behind him, but after thinking about it, he raised his hand and saluted me. I hurriedly said, "What is Mr. Song doing?"

Song Huaiyi said: "Last night, thank you Miss Yan for speaking out for the righteousness of my Song family, and I am very grateful."

I smiled and said, "It turns out that it's this, Song Gongyan is so heavy. I just said whatever I thought of last night. Besides," I glanced at Old Lady Zhang's room: "The old man is so confused. When I am a stranger, how can I bear to see others use words to frame her?"

Song Huaiyi nodded with a heavy expression.

I asked, "By the way, when did the situation of the elderly start? I just can't recognize people. I can treat such a disease in my hometown. Maybe it can prescribe prescriptions and relieve symptoms for the elderly."

When Song Huaiyi heard this, he hurriedly said something grateful, thought about it, and then said, "She has been in poor spirits, but she has been like this in recent years. Since the middle of this year, it has become serious. Fortunately, she still recognizes us children and grandchildren, but she doesn't remember many things. She often regards what happened a few years ago, or even more than ten years ago."

"Oh, that's it..."

I nodded.

In the middle of the year...

I dare not ask in detail. After all, what he said to Old Lady Zhang just now is okay if it is a son's heartfelt confession, or if it is a kind of - temptation, it is OK.

I can't say more.

But, mid-year...

If I was not wrong, it should be that Nangong Jinhong took Nangong Lizhu to escape from the capital, and stayed in the mansions of these people along the way, and the time was probably the same.

But I just thought about it for a moment and said, "If I have the opportunity to send a message to people in my hometown, I will definitely let them do this."

"Thank you Miss Yan."

I smiled and heard the urging of Mrs. Zhang from the room, so I turned around and walked in. When I walked up the steps, I heard Song Huaiyi behind me say to Xie Feng: "Since you have to stay and protect Miss Yan... You must watch more and listen more."

Xie Feng said "yes" and followed him in.

|

I stayed in Old Lady Zhang's room for most of the day, and I also ate lunch there. I didn't say goodbye until the afternoon was approaching evening.

But for such a long time, Xie Feng never left behind me.

Old Mrs. Zhang called me as she was still the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law. She was happy and took me to do needlework, but she said nothing else.

On the contrary, I was a little more tired than when I was calculating two days ago.

I just hope I can have a good night's sleep at night.

After lying down after dinner, my sleepiness was really like a tide, and soon my eyelids almost closed.

But at the moment when I was about to fall asleep, suddenly, my heart skipped a beat and I suddenly woke up.

I sat up and turned to look outside.
