A Timely Wife

The court hall of Nanjiang Mansion was in chaos. When Cheng Dong received the news and rushed over, Xiong Ruoshan had just woken up. Li Qi and Li Liang had already arrived, and Zhou Jinyan was also there. Like a person who is only 16 years old, his eyes are a little gray.

Chengdong was a little distressed, and began to reflect on whether he had been too negligent to the children in the past few years. When he was busy in the office, it was like returning to the time when he was alone in the previous life, except for work. After all, he was no longer alone, but a man with a family, so he should give some thought to these half-grown children.

"Ruoshan, are you feeling better?" Cheng Dong asked in a low voice.

"It's much better, why is brother-in-law here? Aren't you working on telegrams these days?" Xiong Ruoshan asked in surprise.

Chengdong went to the bed and sat down, raised his hand to touch Xiong Ruoshan's forehead, fortunately, he didn't have a fever, and when he heard Xiong Ruoshan's words, Chengdong said with some guilt: "I'm sorry, I don't know what to do when I get busy. Forget it, I should have spent more time with you these days, have you not had a good meal recently?"

Xiong Ruoshan shook his head, and said: "I can't eat, I have no appetite, brother, I'm fine, you go back and do your work, if the telegram can be used, it will definitely be of great use to us Nanchu, I just have a few days If you haven't slept well, just take a rest."

Chengdong sighed, winked at Li Ruosong, and said, "Ruoshan, I'll bring you a bowl of porridge, you can eat something first, okay?"

Although Xiong Ruoshan still had no appetite, facing Chengdong's concern, he still couldn't refuse. He nodded obediently and said, "Okay, then I will trouble you brother-in-law."

Chengdong got up and went to the dining hall to serve porridge. Li Ruosong pondered for a while, and said to Li Qi and Li Liang, "Grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, you should go back first. The city is not peaceful during this time. There are a lot of things to do, as long as Fulang and I stay with Ruoshan here, you are busy with your work, so rest assured to leave it to us."

Li Qi and his wife glanced at each other, Li Qi rushed to Xiong Ruoshan and said: "It's fine, we are all here, it's useless, and I'm really busy this time, I'll go back with your grandmother first, and we'll talk slowly when we get home at night, good Son, you two have a lot of things in your hands, go back to your respective offices first, it is enough to have Wakamatsu and Mrs Wakamatsu here, let them young people communicate well, it is better than us old people staying here Much more, by the way, just now Ruo Song said that the city is not very peaceful during this time, and told Ruo Feng, Li Cheng, Cheng Li, and Jin Si to pay attention to safety on the way to and from school."

Li Liang and his wife heard what Li Qi and his wife said, so they nodded and followed Li Qi and his wife to leave. Before Li Chen's departure, she held Xiong Ruoshan's hand and said, "When I come home tonight, my mother will cook for you. I really neglected you guys, just tell mother what you want to eat, and mother will cook for you, okay?"

Xiong Ruoshan tilted his head and thought for a while, and said: "I think everything my mother eats is delicious. I'm fine. Don't worry too much about your parents, as well as your grandparents. Don't worry about me too much. You must take care of yourself." Body."

Li Chenshi patted Xiong Ruoshan's hand and followed Li Liang back to their respective offices. The couple were walking on the road. Li Chenshi said worriedly: "Husband, Ruoshan's situation doesn't look very good. After the general passed away, the rest of us were really too negligent. Thinking back when Ruoshan first came to the house, he was a thin and small child who was obviously eight years old. He looked about the same as four or five years old. He is so old, we used to care a lot about him, but we don't know when it started, we have become more and more careless about these children, husband, do you remember the last time our family sat together for dinner? "

Li Liang was silent for a while, then slowly replied: "The last time we all sat together for dinner seemed to be during the Chinese New Year. We didn’t even dare to think about it before, but the relationship between family members is not as close as before. We used to be able to chat and talk together during meals, but now we can’t even gather people for dinner, and we are all busy. Very, to be honest, I see a few children who don't know what to say now. We don't understand what they are busy with, and they are not interested in what we are busy with. They can't find any common topics.

Sometimes I think of Ruosong when he was a child, he was not as tall as my calf, with his small face upturned, his big eyes open and looking at me dependently, you said, do children have their own lives when they grow up? Then you will go further and further away from your parents?If this is the case, I would rather our family is still the same as before, with no power, no power, no money, but a close relationship. "

When Li Chen heard the words, she didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, she held Li Liang's hand and said, "Let's have a good chat with our parents and children at night. I think we won't be the only ones who feel this way." Yes, they must have, some things, just let it go, no matter what, we are all a family, there is no reason to be polite to the family."

Chengdong returned to the lounge with the porridge, and Xiong Ruoshan was talking to Li Ruosong. For no reason, Chengdong thought of Xiong Ruoshan's appearance when he first arrived at Li's house. Ruoshan was like a little girl at that time, and she didn't talk much. Because of Li Ruosong's discord, the two brothers seemed to be in conflict at that time. Li Ruosong liked to bully Xiong Ruoshan, and Xiong Ruoshan was good at confronting Li Ruosong. I don't know when it started. The relationship between the two brothers has improved a lot. Although the dislike of each other is still there, they are more like brothers than before. Chengdong has never had any brothers and sisters. Seeing the way the two brothers get along, he is somewhat envious. Although Xiong Ruoshan and Li Ruosong don’t get along well , always competing with each other, but I have always trusted him, and I am willing to tell myself no matter what, but, as I get older, more and more things happen to me, and the communication between him and Xiong Ruoshan is far from what it used to be. After General Zhou passed away, he even forgot to consider Xiong Ruoshan's thoughts. He was not a qualified elder brother, nor was he a qualified father.

Xiong Ruoshan heard the footsteps and looked in Chengdong's direction. Zhou Jinyan stood up and wanted to take the bowl of porridge from Chengdong's hand, but Chengdong avoided him. Chengdong said to Zhou Jinyan: "Jinyan, you Sit down and I'll do it."

Zhou Jinyan didn't leave with Li Qi and Li Liang. When Li Ruosong was about to speak, he heard Chengdong say to him, "Jinyan just sit here, it's okay."

Li Ruosong shut his mouth obediently, thinking that Zhou Jinyan and Xiong Ruoshan have been together since they were young, and the two of them spent much more time together than their brothers. Maybe it would be easier for Xiong Ruoshan to relax with Zhou Jinyan here, Thinking of this, Li Ruosong didn't object anymore.

Chengdong fed Xiong Ruoshan with a spoon, Xiong Ruoshan's face flushed red, and he said embarrassedly: "Brother, let me eat by myself."

Seeing that Xiong Ruoshan blushed so much, Cheng Dong smiled slightly, and said, "No, I'll feed you, as if you haven't fed you since you were a child, and I heard Li Cheng and Cheng Li say that they were naughty and didn't eat when they were young. It was you who followed the two of them with a bowl to feed them, it's rare for my brother-in-law to want to feed you, so just open your mouth and eat obediently."

Hearing this, Xiong Ruoshan glanced at Li Ruosong, and saw that Li Ruosong was looking at him with a displeased face, his eyes were full of warnings, his husband hadn't fed him yet, why would he want to take advantage of this kid, Xiong Ruoshan? He is 16 years old and not six years old, how can he let his brother-in-law feed him, it is unbearable, Li Ruosong's resentment is about to vent, seeing this, Xiong Ruoshan immediately said: "Okay, then I will trouble brother Husband feeds me porridge."

Chengdong gave Li Ruosong a sideways glance, fed the porridge into Ruoshan's mouth, and said in a low voice, "Your Uncle Zhou should be happy, you don't know, he hasn't gotten married until now because he has someone in his heart, the most painful thing in the world." The thing is nothing more than wanting, that woman has already taken root in his heart, except for that woman, he doesn't want anyone else, Ruoshan, do you know who that person is?"

Xiong Ruoshan swallowed the porridge in his mouth, and said in a daze, "Uncle Zhou has such a person in his heart?"

Chengdong fed Xiong Ruoshan again, and said, "Your Uncle Zhou often looks at you in a daze. I heard your grandmother mention that you looked very similar to your mother when you were young."

Xiong Ruoshan was startled, and even forgot to eat the porridge in his mouth. He was stunned for a while, and asked in a daze, "Brother, is what you said just now true?"

Chengdong smiled and said, "Why am I lying to you about this? Of course it is true. A man who is 40 or [-] years old will not get married or have children. There is only one possibility. He has something in his heart that he wants to marry but can't marry." Man, I have seen him look at you in a daze, with a sad expression several times. At that time, I was thinking, he is a general, and he rushed all the way from the capital to Liujiagou, giving up everything in the capital just to take care of you. A child, no matter how he thinks about it, it will not be because of his duty, but because he wants to fulfill a very important promise."

Xiong Ruoshan was a little absent-minded, chewing the rice grains in his mouth one by one, Zhou Jinyan said suddenly: "What brother-in-law said is true. I was playful when I was young. Once I hid in the cabinet of my grandfather's study and heard me My grandfather told my father that my third uncle Xinyue Concubine Lan, I hope my father can think of a way to talk to my third uncle."

Xiong Ruoshan was shocked by what Zhou Jinyan said suddenly. He didn't expect it, he never thought about it that way, Uncle Zhou liked his mother and concubine, and he hadn't married a wife and had children for so many years, just to take care of himself, even There is no compromise with the infamy of being unfilial.

Xiong Ruoshan suddenly remembered the satisfied smile on the corner of General Zhou's mouth before his death. So it was so, no wonder Uncle Zhou smiled so happily. Thinking about it, being able to protect himself is really something to be proud of for Uncle Zhou. This is such a painful thing, just thinking about it, Xiong Ruoshan will feel a faint pain in his heart.
