Mrs. Li rubbed her brows tiredly, her voice seemed unable to rise, and she said feebly, "How can this be done? It's the twelfth lunar month and it's almost the Chinese New Year. Not to mention your marriage, your grandmother has fallen down, and at home, There is no one who can make the decision, so it has to be on your shoulders for the past two days, and food, rice, oil and salt are also no small matter."
Li's voice is not loud, but she talks a lot.
Men don't like to listen to chatter. They don't think there are many things going on in the inner house, but they just get impatient when they hear the chatter. "I think my mother will be fine. My sister-in-law and Hong Shao are just resting, so let them go outside." Bring her in to a soft couch, and I'll take care of you if you need anything."
In Mr. An's view, these are nothing.
It's okay that the old lady has nothing, but if there is anything, no matter how many people gather together, they can only listen to the doctor's words. If you stay with this master, who is the backbone in front of you, there will be no chaos if anything big happens.
It's definitely not easy for Mrs. Li, a widowed sister-in-law, to get along with her brother-in-law. Mr. An will do whatever he says.
He went to the back room to take a look at the old lady, and then led An Hongshao out.
However, after leaving the old lady's yard, Li had no intention of going back and led An Hongshao directly to the warehouse.
"Mom, don't worry about this. Just take a rest." An Hongshao was afraid that Mrs. Li would be tired, so she persuaded her from the side.
Ms. Li smiled and shook her head, "You are such an idiot, how could you not sleep a wink all night? Now your whole body is full of energy."
The voice seemed to be stronger than before.
Li insisted on this, so An Hongshao could only follow Li's thoughts and let Li know all the arrangements.
Mrs. Li took a deep look at An Hongshao, and then smiled, "Okay, she handles things neatly, which is the magnanimity a lady of the house should have."
Aunt Zhao had already fetched the account book. Mrs. Li checked everything in the warehouse against the account book. After confirming that they matched, she had someone change the locks of the warehouse.
"When tomorrow is free, let someone move all these things to our place." Now that the old lady is ill, and Mr. An is not a live-in person who can look after it, these things will be received by Li's family naturally. In the bag.
This matter can be arranged for An Hongshao to handle, but preparing the dowry has always been the mother's job, and Mrs. Li wanted to do it herself.
What's more, Mrs. Li plans to use all the efforts of the Baron House to get An Hongshao married in style. If An Hongshao manages it by herself, how could he take so many things from her mother's family?
An Hongshao vaguely understood Li's arrangement and shook her head in disapproval, "Mother wants her daughter to live a good life, so why doesn't my daughter not want my mother to live a good life?"
These days, everyone looks down on merchants, but no one can live without money. Only with money can you strengthen your waist.
Mrs. Li looked at the things in the room with a smile in her eyes, "Silly boy, the money that the court allocates to the Baron's Mansion every month is enough for my mother. Without the prodigal people in the second room, how can my life be comfortable? .”
She put her hand on An Hongshao's cheek, and there was some complexity in her eyes that An Hongshao couldn't understand. Slowly, Li's eyes turned red, "Don't refuse mother, or you will marry with glory and regrets." !”
Hearing Mrs. Li's voice choked with sobs, An Hongshao threw herself into Mrs. Li's arms and said, "Mom, I will be fine."
Sit properly in the position of Mrs. Li, with Mrs. Li's expectations, and sit in the high position she expected.
Aunt Zhao was crying outside the door. All the past events were like a blur. An Hongshao was not the Li family. She would not follow in the Li family’s footsteps. The Li family had paved the way for her. As long as An Hongshao followed the Li family’s arrangements in this life. The road will not fall into dust.
On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, An Hongshao's wedding day was getting closer and closer. Even if the old lady was ill, she still had to take care of the wedding matters.
The doctor has left, and the old lady is just hanging on for as long as she can.
Because there was a happy event in the family and there were many people coming in and out, even under the same roof, Mr. An didn't know that the public warehouse had been emptied.
Mrs. Li, still wearing red clothes, came to the old lady's bed to have a look. She thought that God would never provide icing on the cake, but she didn't expect to see it now.
Mrs. Li took the handkerchief from Aunt Zhu, wiped the old lady's hands, and then sighed, "Fate has its way with people. I have been strong all my life. Why did I end up like this?"
Second Master An sighed with emotion, "It's all Zhang's fault!"
Mrs. Li finished wiping the old lady's hands, but did not let go of the handkerchief. "Speaking of this face-saving matter, I would like to discuss it with my second brother. How should Xin You be settled? Hongshao will get married in ten days. At that time, the guests will The house is full, this kid Xinyou.”
Li Shi continued after a pause, "I'm not afraid of others. I'm just afraid that someone will know about Xin You's physical pain. If it gets publicized, how will Xin You raise his head in this life?"
Second Master An felt that Li's concerns were justified. An Xinyou was so bewitched by Zhang that he almost committed patricide. What should he do if he deliberately made noise during a wedding and disturbed the guests? .
"Send Xinyou and Hongye to Zhuangzi together, wait until the storm has passed, and ask the doctor to adjust it frequently. Maybe there is hope for a cure." After sending it to Zhuangzi, the people are clean, and it is convenient for the doctor to come and go.
An Hongshao Zhuangzi has been found, and she is just waiting for the order from Second Master An. As soon as he gave the instructions, Nanny Zhao went down to do it and sent the two people from the second room away immediately.
"Ah, ah." The old lady didn't know what she was thinking of. She opened her mouth to speak, but unfortunately no one could understand what she wanted to say.
Aunt Zhu quickly squatted in front of the old lady and held her hand. "Speak slowly, I'm here to guard you."
In the whole room, it can be said that Nanny Zhu is the most patient with the old lady.
"Leave the family matters to me, my second brother. You have been delayed for several days on your official business. Now my mother's health is not going to be anything serious. I think it's still early, so my second brother will be busy with his own business first." The old lady At this moment, he also expressed that he did not take lightly what he was thinking, and Li took the opportunity to send Mr. An away.
"In that case, I'll bother my sister-in-law." Second Master An said and stood up. He was just a casual worker, so it would be fine if he didn't go.
Mainly, after Mr. An was beaten by An Xinyou, he was so stimulated that his place was in ruins, and he didn't have the face to see those Yingying Yanyan again. But so many days have passed, and a lot of things happened at home, and Mr. An was very upset.
People like him who are used to living among the peonies are used to looking for those interpreting flowers when something happens, indulging in the flowers and getting by.
Doing nothing and having a pretty girl by your side is always a good thing.
In addition, I didn't sleep well yesterday while keeping vigil for the old lady. At this time, I miss the gentle countryside even more.
The door of the house opened and closed, and Mr. An left without any regrets.
Mrs. Li looked at the closed door and the old lady who only said a few words. She was so tired that she couldn't breathe. She lay there flat with her eyes open and her body kept rising and falling.
