Chapter 1253 Premonition
Erlang curled his lips and suddenly cried out. He rushed towards Zeng and tried to pull her away, "Great-grandmother, don't be sick. Get up and play with Erlang. Erlang will be a good boy from now on and will never be naughty again." Don’t break the cups in your house, oh oh...great-grandmother, uh uh..."
"You kid, why are you crying? Your great-grandmother is sleeping. She will wake up her old man in a while. Please get out."
Erlang was crying hard, but Princess Qinghui covered his mouth, picked him up and walked out of the house. When he walked to the door, he happened to meet a group of people from the Zhuo family. Princess Qinghui said, "Come here." Come on, come in.”
Such a tone frightened Ms. Zhuo to the point of suffocating her breath. She ran in with tears in her eyes. When she saw the figure on the bed, she whimpered and rushed over to cry. Xia Zihan grabbed her and said, "Mom, grandma is just asleep."
Mrs. Zhuo choked back her crying and asked quickly, "How is your grandmother... how is her health?"
"It's not good. I've been falling into a deep sleep these past two days, I'm afraid..."
Xia Zihan didn't say the next words, but Zhuo already understood.
Zeng's health is not good, and she is afraid that if she falls asleep one day, she will not be able to wake up.
There was a lump in her throat, and her tears flowed even more fiercely. "How long will it take for your grandmother... will she still be conscious?"
"Still awake, not confused, just lost energy." When a person loses energy, it's like losing life. No one can say how long it will take for him to wake up, not even she and her master are sure. What time.
Maybe one day, maybe three days, maybe half a month...
Mrs. Xia Er heard these words when she came in. Her eyes turned red instantly and tears fell down. She said sadly, "Why is it so serious? The master and I came to visit the old lady a few days ago. She is still well. Unexpectedly , so fast..."
"No, I had a premonition the last time I came here." Xia Shiming added sadly, "Last time my mother-in-law talked to me a lot, all about what happened to my father-in-law and Jiahui. My mother-in-law had never been in front of me before. I have been talking about them, but a few days ago, I was talking about them for more than an hour. After I left last time, I had a premonition of being uneasy, but I didn't dare to speculate in this regard. I thought that my mother-in-law missed my father-in-law and Jiahui. ”
"Why don't you say anything to me? If you do, I will stay in the Chu Mansion and be the daughter of the old lady and serve the old lady." Mrs. Xia Er wiped her tears and looked reproachfully. glanced at him.
The last time I came to visit Mrs. Zeng, after a few words, Mrs. Zeng left Xia Shiming to talk and sent Princess Qinghui to take her to the flower room to see more than a dozen pots of newly planted camellias.
At this glance, it lasted more than an hour.
After returning, she originally wanted to ask Xia Shiming what the old lady had said to him, but she thought that the old lady was his first wife's mother, and she was Xia Shiming's stepmother. Since the old lady sent her away, Talking to Xia Shiming alone meant that she couldn't listen to those words.
In this case, it would be hard for her to ask.
Afterwards, she forgot about it.
However, I didn't expect that for more than an hour that day, the old lady was talking to Xia Shiming about Mr. Chu Ge and Chu Jiahui.
If she had asked earlier, she might have noticed something was wrong with the old lady earlier than Yumugada.
Mrs. Xia Er regretted it very much and shed even more tears.
When Xia Shiming saw that he was treating his wife with all his heart, he advised, "Don't feel guilty. The old lady may have expected that such a day would come to her, so she talked to me so much. I don’t talk to you because I’m afraid of embarrassing you.”
How can the mother of her first wife go talk to her son-in-law's step-in-law about her daughter who has been dead for many years? There is no such thing.
As Xia Shiming's stepmother, Mrs. Xia Er has a sensitive status when dealing with the Chu family. Fortunately, the old lady has a gentle temper and can tolerate her. However, if she can be tolerated, she must be with someone. The woman who stole her son-in-law talked about her daughter, but the old lady couldn't do it.
Even if she did it, Mrs. Xia Er would be embarrassed listening to it.
This is also the reason why Xia Shiming did not tell Mrs. Xia Er about this.
"Okay, don't blame him, he's in trouble too." Madam Zhuo wiped away her tears and persuaded, "I'm staying these few days, and it just so happens that I've brought my child with me, and Ayu is here too, so we can all stay. Serve the old lady, you should stay too.”
The last words were said to Xia Shiming, his wife and Chu Xuanyu.
She looked at Xia Ziye and Xia Zihai again, and said, "There will be autumn exams in September this year. You two should also sign up to take part this year. Now is the time when studies are stressful. You two young men should go back to study and don't stay. ”
"Aunt, please let me stay. The old lady is my maternal grandmother, and I want to do my best to be filial," Xia Ziye said.
When Xia Zihai saw his brother expressing his stance, he nodded and expressed that he wanted to stay.
Xia Shiming also said, "No matter how nervous they are about studying, they will stay here for the next few days. We will wait until the old lady gets well."
Princess Qinghui saw that several people wanted to stay, so she sent people to prepare the yard.
Fortunately, the Chu Mansion is big enough, with enough courtyards, and there are not many people in the Chu family. Xia Shiming and the Zhuo family also have courtyards where they used to live, but no one lives there. Princess Qinghui still keeps it for them, and usually They have also sent people to clean it. Now they only need to order people to clean up a yard for brothers Xia Ziye and Xia Zihai to live.
Mrs. Zhuo and Mrs. Xia Er also sent their nannies back to their respective houses to get a change of clothes and daily necessities.
Xia Ziye and Xia Zihai's servant also brought several books that the two young masters read on weekdays and the Four Treasures of the Study.
At mid-morning, Zeng Yiran, who received the news, hurried over with his wife, son in his arms, and daughter in hand.
Not long after, Liao Jingtang also came with Zeng Jing, her children, and several ladies of the Liao family.
Suddenly, the room was packed with people. Although everyone saw Zeng sleeping deeply and did not dare to speak to wake her up, there were so many people crowded in the room that the air seemed to be thin and depressing. I can't breathe.
Princess Qinghui hurriedly ordered the maids to invite Xia Shiming and the young masters to talk in the side hall next door. The children were also taken out to play in the yard by the maids, leaving a group of women in the house.
Mrs. Zhuo and Mrs. Xia's second wife, Mrs. Liao, sat on the kang in the outer room to talk. Princess Qinghui, Xia Zihan, Zeng Jing and Liao Fangyi stayed in the house and guarded Mrs. Zeng's bedside.
As soon as Zeng Jing came, she couldn't stop crying. Liao Fangyi's eyes were red and she said, "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, my great-aunt is blessed with great fortune, so she will be fine."
