New widow

"Mom!" Although Xia Yun had already thought that Sister-in-law Xiao Zhu would say such things, she still couldn't help but hugged Sister-in-law Xiao Zhu and shouted. Sister-in-law Xiao Zhu patted her daughter's face: "Okay, okay, you are all Now that you are so lucky, I used to worry about your marriage, but now that you have such a good blessing, why should I worry about it?"

"I will always be your daughter no matter how old I am." Only then did Xia Yun understand what Song Zhen said, don't forget where you came from. He could only say this when looking at Xiao Zhu's sister-in-law.

"I know you are filial, but in this world..." Sister-in-law Xiao Zhu looked outside worriedly. If someone was outside the hall at this moment and listened to their words, would it be harmful to Xia Yun? Do you think Xia Yun is willing to be humble and does not know how to praise?

"Mom." Xia Yun helped Xiao Zhu's sister-in-law sit down. Manager Xiao Zhu looked at Xia Yun, with a pleased look on her face but still with a warning in her tone: "Anyway, we are all just for your own good. As for you, you can feel at ease here. "

"I will." Xia Yun knew that if he said anything else to his parents at this moment, they would not listen and could only agree softly.

"This child has always been worry-free, don't you know?" Mrs. Zhu said to her son. Manager Xiao Zhu's face turned red again: "Mom, aren't I just afraid that something will happen to her?" She has no foundation in the Duke's Mansion, and now she has the favor of the madam. If someone doesn't like her and tries to do something bad to her, we will be damned."

"No." It was Song Zhen who made the promise. Manager Xiao Zhu looked at this, his sister's daughter, whom he met for the first time, but could not call her niece, and still said respectfully.

: "Yes, I know the girl is good to her, but I am a father, so I can't help but worry a lot."

"Don't blame him. When they were young, I told them to be more careful and never let others catch them in their mistakes." After saying this, Mrs. Zhu sighed: "But I couldn't protect you either. mother."

"It's my aunt." Sister-in-law Xiao Zhu reminded at the side, and Mrs. Zhu said hurriedly: "Yes, I failed to protect your aunt."

"My mother is buried outside the town where we live." Song Zhen said softly: "Mother Wu said that she had a Feng Shui master visit and found that the cemetery was very good. She also bought [-] acres of land as a sacrificial field and told the tenant farmers to ask them to Sacrifice at the four seasons at the right time.”

Mrs. Zhu listened carefully. That was the place where her daughter was buried. There were people guarding the tomb and offering sacrifices. That was enough.

"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Zhu nodded, but she didn't know when the tears had already fallen.

"My mother said that she missed her mother very much. I asked her at that time, why don't we go back to find my grandmother." Song Zhen's voice was very low, and Mrs. Zhu held Song Zhen's hand tightly, because her own My daughter will definitely answer, saying, the rules don’t allow it.

The maid who was sent away to marry the Duke of Guo gave birth to the Duke's child. Even after her husband died, she could not leave without permission. She could only wait there, waiting for when the Duke's Palace would take Song Zhen back and let Song Zhen go. Live the life of a daughter of a prince.

I have been cautious all my life, followed the rules, and have never done anything wrong in my life, but all I got in exchange was that my bones were buried in a foreign land. Mrs. Zhu felt like her heart was twisting in a knife, and her throat was a little bloody. She didn't know when she would vomit out the blood.

Song Zhen only felt that her hand was held tightly by Mrs. Zhu,

Song Zhen looked at Mrs. Zhu and her tone was still very light: "My mother said that you taught her a lot, and she also made you a pair of shoes every year."

Those shoes were burned by Grandma Wu during the funeral. Song Zhen only took back one pair, in the name of leaving a memory for herself.

Mrs. Zhu looked at the pair of shoes that Song Zhen took out, the fine needlework, and the chrysanthemums embroidered on the shoes. She became even more heartbroken. She reached out to take the shoes and stroked the patterns on them. This was what she had taught her daughter. It was embroidered. At that time, my daughter asked what kind of flowers she liked. What was your answer at that time? At this age, I still care about these flowers and powders?

Then I will embroider chrysanthemums on my mother, hoping that she will live a long life. His daughter's voice seemed to still be in his ears, and the chrysanthemums she embroidered were right in front of him, but his daughter was already separated from him by yin and yang.

"I haven't seen your mother in 16 years." Mrs. Zhu couldn't take her eyes off the shoes for a moment, and said in an erratic tone: "At that time, I thought that I would be able to see her during the holidays. Who knows? She married into the Duke's Mansion, and I haven't seen her since."

It was okay when he was in the capital. Even if he couldn't see her, he knew his daughter was not far from him. With her daughter's cautious character, she won't get into any trouble.

But who knows? Being attracted by Song An has become a nightmare for her daughter. She reluctantly gets pregnant with a child, is not easily married off, and reluctantly stays in a small town far away from the capital. She misses her parents in the capital, but can't bring one with her. Write back.

"My child, you have suffered a lot these years outside." Mrs. Zhu looked at Song Zhen with a very loving tone. Song Zhen smiled: "I didn't suffer

It’s bitter, my mother loves me very much, and our life is quite carefree. "

Being rich and powerful without the government's palace is a kind of freedom away from the troubles. There is no need to think about the difference between concubine and concubine, let alone the difference between wife and concubine. When someone calls her mother, she will say coldly, "You can't call me mother, you have to call me aunt."

"I like the outside very much." Song Zhen said frankly. Mrs. Zhu smiled: "Yes, I have been living in the Chen Mansion for so long that I have forgotten the life in the market. It may be hard, but it is also very free."

There are not so many rules, and you don’t have to worry about too many people’s eyes. There are very few ordinary people in the market who can take concubines, and most of them are monogamous. When a man has extramarital affairs, a woman can pick up a broom and scold the man, or even fight him. After the scolding is over, the woman can still be a good couple.

"When the time comes, if grandma is willing..." Song Zhen stopped before she could finish her words. How could she be willing? In the Chen Mansion, although the Zhu family were servants, they were well-fed and well-clothed. As long as they abide by their duties, they would be safe and sound. How could they be willing to live with them?

Mrs. Zhu looked at the confusion flashing on Song Zhen's face and patted her hand gently: "I know you are thinking about me. I think it's because your mother talks about you in front of me all the time. But I don't either. That's fine, I'm just the mother-in-law of the Chen family. I'm getting older and people call me mama wherever I go, but I know that I can't even protect my own children, so who am I?"

Mrs. Zhu's words were broken, and Manager Xiao Zhu took a step forward: "Mother."

"Okay, okay, it's not easy for us to meet and talk, what are we talking about?

, but it is just a sudden increase in sadness. Mrs. Zhu hurriedly wiped her tears before holding Song Zhen's hand: "You are a good child. You don't think you should remember us. We live a good life. The old lady and the madam are all very good to me." "
