But how did he do it?
He stopped after two sips, and even got angry and knocked over the porridge with a slap in the face. He asked Wei Jingwei if she wanted him to starve to death and actually made such unpleasant porridge for him. It was obvious at a glance that Wei Jingwei was careless.
She kept the porridge herself, but it took two hours to cook it. How could it be bad?
Mei Yuanqing also scolded her, saying that she was not qualified as a mother.
The old lady said in a weird way that she was not virtuous and deserved to have no heirs.
Afterwards, she returned to the yard to reflect. She tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep. She asked herself over and over in her mind, had she really done a bad job? Are you really incapable of being a mother?
no!
It's them who don't deserve it!
They were so ambitious that they just wanted to see her step by step towards the point of no return and watch her struggle in pain.
Stretch out your plain white hand, with slender and tender fingers.
There is a very beautiful bracelet hanging on it, and you can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary thing.
She gently brushed the messy hair from Brother Cheng's forehead. At this moment, to outsiders, the two of them seemed as close as their own mother and son.
After reading it, she dropped her hand.
He also asked the maids and servants to take good care of him, and then stood up to leave.
"Mother..." A low murmur caused her to pause in her steps and look back at the couch.
At some point, the little figure woke up, opened a pair of tired eyes, and looked at her with nostalgia.
That gaze made her stunned for two seconds, and she quickly returned to her normal expression.
"You're awake. I'm going to tell my subordinates to prepare some food. You must be hungry after being unconscious for so long."
"Mom... I'm not hungry, where is... Aunt Zhang."
Wei Jingwei smiled and sat gently on the edge of the couch. The distance between the two was not close, but it was not unfamiliar either.
"Why are you so good? You asked about her as soon as you woke up."
"Son...Son is just curious."
"Aunt Zhang is probably in the yard. I haven't seen her much these days. If you have any questions, I can ask Lian'er to go there. It won't take much effort."
After hearing this, Brother Cheng shook his head like a rattle, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.
In the past, when he was close to his mother, Wei Jingwei could feel unhappy at all times, but now she speaks very calmly, without the slightest hint of anger, as if these words...
To her, it doesn't matter.
"I won't bother mother... I'm just asking casually."
He raised his head and tucked his quilt, "Well, you had a good rest. It will be fine now that you wake up. But, how did you fall into the water that night? Do you still remember..."
Brother Cheng frowned, recalled it carefully, and then said with some uncertainty, "That night, a little maid in the corridor said that a funny little animal broke in in the yard, and she said it must be me. If you like it, why don't you go take a look and bring it back to keep for yourself, so that you can pass away the depression. It was night at that time, and I was afraid that the boys would know that they would definitely not allow it, so I went out secretly... Then we went to the waterside in the yard, and maybe the road was slippery in winter, so my son slipped down."
It's not like she hadn't thought about this before. Why did she slip when she walked to the edge of the pool smoothly?
If it were to slip, wouldn't the gravel road be even slipperier?
However, Aunt Ruan must have arrived in this matter. If Brother Cheng continues to investigate this matter, he must find that maid.
"Did you see clearly what the maid looks like?"
Brother Cheng shook his head slowly, "The sky was too dark, and the maid was standing on the corridor through the window talking to my son. There was no light in the corridor, so my son couldn't see very clearly..."
I couldn't see the maid's appearance clearly, so it seemed like the matter was over.
Even if Mei Yuanqing and the old lady wanted to investigate, nothing would be found.
It has to be said that Aunt Ruan's trick is crude, but effective.
She nodded, told her to have a good rest, and went out of the inner room, asking her servants to inform everyone about Brother Cheng's awakening.
"Mother, are you leaving?"
Seeing that Wei Jingwei was about to leave, Brother Cheng asked in a soft tone.
"Do you need anything?"
"No...I'm just a little scared alone..."
A child of several years old would be frightened if he suddenly encountered such a thing, and would need the company of his close elders, but they were never close to each other.
She wasn't close before, and she won't be close in the future, and she doesn't like to be superficial.
He immediately said, "I will notify your father or Aunt Zhang to come and see you. Have a good rest."
"..." Brother Cheng couldn't say anything anymore, he just sat on the bed a little dejected.
The boy next to him was very clever and immediately sent several people out of the yard.
Looking at Wei Jingwei and the maids leaving, I sighed in my heart.
It's not that he couldn't see that the young master was determined to make amends with his wife during these days. He had done many things in the past, but in the end he broke Wei Jingwei's heart. Not to mention her, even the servants like them find it incredible that a serious young master in the mansion is closer to an aunt all day long than to his nominal mother. What a big deal.
They were servants and couldn't talk too much. They felt puzzled and at the same time felt that their master was a little stupid.
Now, it's too late.
Madam's heart, the young master can never restore it.
The bead curtain moved and made a tinkling sound, which was very pleasant.
A weak voice came from the bed, "Blessed...has mother left?"
"Let's go, Master."
"good."
His voice was a bit muffled when he answered. Youfu glanced inside and saw his dull face, which made him very unhappy.
Hey, you are still having a bad temper now, Madam is not used to it.
Furthermore, this young master's future has been ruined, and he doesn't know what will happen next.
The boys like them were ordered around by him like dogs, and they worked hard without complaining. He just thought that if he inherited the Mei family in the future, they could also work as stewards.
This is good, her face is ruined, her future is ruined, and Aunt Ruan is carrying something in her belly, I don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl, anyway.
It's hard to say in the future.
Soon, the news that Brother Cheng had woken up spread throughout the mansion.
Aunt Ruan looked nervously at Cui'er who had just walked in from outside, "Did you hear what he said when he woke up?"
Cui'er shook her head and showed a bit of a smile, "It's pretty much what I guessed. He was young and didn't have any defensive mentality. He didn't remember my appearance at all. He only said that he slipped into the lake by himself."
"But the old lady and I... can you believe it?"
