Lian Jue

Ma'am, you can't hold the child like this, you have to hold it with your left hand, with your head close to the mother's heart, so that he will be safe. "

"okay."

"It's best for a child to drink breastmilk. You've only given birth a few days ago, so take care of yourself and drink the old woman's ancestral peanut and pig's trotters soup to replenish qi and blood, and you will definitely have milk."

The old lady taught her patience, and when she saw Ruyan push the door in, she said, "The old lady thanked the two ladies for giving me rice, and I will come back tomorrow, the lady is good at self-cultivation."

Qing Yao: "Thank you Mrs. Wang."

Ruyan said: "This old lady is really good, but it's strange to say, Dr. Pan passed by the day before yesterday, and he is good at treating birth injuries. Today, Mrs. Wang came and said that she lived next door and came to borrow rice. I don't mean to ask Thinking about what she has to promote lactation, her family has a wonderful recipe for promoting lactation passed down from generation to generation, if God helps, Xiao Baa, is it because you are so cute?"

Qing Yao: "Luck, but I think Mrs. Wang is really kind-hearted. I used to think that after giving birth, I would be able to take care of it, but I was still in a hurry and no one helped me. I can't support you, a precious little lump." She Pointing at Xiaobaa, Xiaobaa held Qing Yao's finger with her small hand and shook it gently.

Ru Yan smiled and said, "Do you agree or disagree? Oh, poor little Baa, I haven't learned how to speak yet, so I'll just assume you agree."

The old lady Wang walked out of the inner courtyard, and a gray figure flew down from the secluded blue brick eaves.Mrs. Wang said in a low voice, "The child is safe, but the young mother is not in good health." The man in gray said, "Thank you, Mr. Wang. You don't have to bother to arrange people to monitor the child when you go to help take care of the child."

"Don't call me the boss, I left very early. You can just call me the old lady." Wang Nian once worked for the 20th floor, but it was more than [-] years ago, and people and things are old.Recalling it a little bit, I feel that it was dyed a layer of yellow.

He was originally a very capable person in the building, but who knew that he would withdraw in his prime, and he had to know the whole story.Now, her body is slightly plump and her complexion is kind.It is no different from ordinary old women.

While it was still early in the daylight, she went to the market to buy something.This world is not good, so he came back in chaos, and Liangdu is no longer as busy as it used to be.If you want to buy something, you have to run a few streets.People are also flustered, looking tired.Night markets and brothels are even more sluggish.

At her age, she didn't want to run away with her. Although rumors were rampant that there would be wars here sooner or later, she felt that life had to go on.The war is too far away from her. The sky is falling, and there are young and strong people supporting it, so they can't hit her.She couldn't even remember that she had been strong when she was young.

"Oh, Xiao Gu, are you still selling vegetables?"

"Yes, Mrs. Wang, I didn't expect to see you again." Gu Miao, the vegetable seller, was a sturdy farmer with white teeth, and smiled shyly while rubbing his head.

"There are still vegetables for sale. Isn't it a lot of money at the current price?"

"On the surface, this is the case, but buying other things is expensive, much more expensive than vegetables. Although the food has been harvested, the grain requisitions have been collected from door to door, and basically the rations have been kept. They can only sell a la carte to subsidize."

"Life is not easy. It will be fine after this year, but this mess is really hard to clean up."

"We farmers don't understand these things, whoever can give us a little peace of mind is a good master."

Wang Nian nodded and picked up the dishes with a smile.

Gu Miao said: "Not much, do you think it's all there? I'll send you home."

Wang Nian quickly waved his hand, "It's not over, or it's not over. It's two catties."

Before Gu Miao was ready, a hand stretched out to hold Gu Miao's hand.

A somewhat hoarse voice said: "Don't pierce, I want them all."

"Brother, this won't work. This old lady asked for some herself. Is this okay? Come early tomorrow and give it all to you?"

The man with black face and beard, raised his hand and grabbed Gu Miao's skirt.

Wang Nian said: "Young man, I don't want it anymore, can you let me go?"

The man seemed to be finding fault on purpose, and said fiercely: "Such a small dish, is it too little to give to the uncle?"

The words trembled unconsciously at the end of the sentence, and he didn't notice how the old woman's hand was placed on his wrist, and she seemed to persuade him to let go, but in fact it was like an iron hoop that prevented him from moving.

"Young man, why don't you leave?"

"Stop! Ah! It hurts!"

After the black-faced man was dripping with cold sweat and covered his hands and ran for a few steps, he was caught by something again and kicked him hard.An old beggar grunted in pain.

Gu Miao straightened his clothes and said, "What happened to him just now, he suddenly felt pain."

"Oh, it's probably a sudden illness." Wang Nian picked up the dishes and was about to leave, but accidentally caught sight of the person lying on the ground, "By the way, the person lying over there is a beggar?"

"Oh, yes, I've been here for the past two days, talking about it all the time, and I can't see what it looks like."

Wang Nian is old, she doesn't want to care about those things anymore.But the beggar who passed by still lost two copper coins.

"Boom."

The old beggar half opened his eyes, one side of his face was bruised, and he looked old.He grabbed Wang Nian's skirt and said, "Good old lady, please save our family, please help me." He said, and shed a little tear.

Wang Nian heard from him that he claimed to be an eunuch in the palace, and probably escaped because of the war.It seemed that he was quite old, so he thought about it and brought him back.

Wang Nian asked his name, and he said it was Liao.

In the dark, all the dusty things will rise from the mist of the dark night.

Lian Jue entered the room by herself, Ru Yan sat beside her making clothes for the child, Qing Yao stopped coaxing the child, with a kind and helpless smile on her face, she looked up and saw someone coming in.

"Oh, Your Majesty..." Qing Yao looked at Ru Yan, unable to find a good address for a while, and got out of bed in a hurry.Lian Jue hurriedly said, you rest and don't move around.

Qing Yao hurriedly said, sit down.

The two of them had some words to say, and each of them said a word, but they were short of words, and they couldn't say anything more for a long time.

Qing Yao had a lot of things to say, and when she saw him, seeing his thin figure, with a tired forced smile waiting for her to speak, she felt that saying anything would only increase her troubles.

As for Lian Jue, he searched his guts and couldn't say anything more.After asking Qing Yao how she was, and how the child was, she seemed to have nothing to say.He was surprised to find that when he was no longer in that position, it seemed that he couldn't even speak.

Ru Yan's face was somber, seeing the two of them like this, she also guessed their identities.

She snorted coldly, "It's too early to say, why don't you come back after the children know how to call you daddy?"

Lian Jue was embarrassed, "I should have come earlier."

"Say it this way, you can make up for your faults, and you can make up for the pain of the child's mother. Do you know how brave and cowardly a mother is when she gives birth to a child? You simply don't deserve to be Xiaobaa's father."

Lian Jue said seriously, "I know I can't make it up, and I don't deserve it."

This sentence can be choked like smoke, you you you you for a long time, and finally stopped.The child's mother did not lose her composure, but herself.She quickly restrained her anger, paid a gift and went down. She knew that she couldn't steal the show.

Qing Yao said, "Don't mind, Ruyan didn't mean it."

"She's telling the truth. I'm here today to see you. If you don't mind, I'll give the child a name. Second..."

Qing Yao interjected, "Secondly, what should we do with our mother and child?"

"It's not a disposition, the child is at your disposal."

Qing Yao gently patted the child on the back, her loving eyes refused to move away for a long time.

"You hug him, this is your child."

Lian Jue took the child and hugged her in her arms, a little flustered.The child slept well, but because of the uncomfortable posture, he snorted a few times, Lian Jue was afraid that he would cry.

"Xiaobaa looks like you."

"kindness."

"What did you name him?"

"Yun." Lian Jue said, fearing that Qing Yao would not like it, she added, "If you don't like it, then don't use this."

"I like it, why don't I like it, I like everything you give. But, from now on, Your Majesty, let me call you Your Majesty one last time, take the child away."

Lian Jue did not expect Qing Yao to make such a decision.He was surprised, "Why?"

"I've thought about it for a long time. This child is my lifelong obsession. But it's time for me to let go. I'm leaving to start my new life."

"Are you really willing?"

"If you can't bear it, you have to give it up. Your Majesty doesn't seem to be in good health, so let Xiaobaa stay by your side for me. In the future, no matter where I am, I will always hope that Your Majesty will be happy."

"You don't hate me?" Lian Jue murmured.

Qing Yao smiled, and two lines of tears flowed down.

"I hate you. But, I gave you the greatest courage and love of my life. Sometimes I think, this is really unfair, isn't it?"

"I…"

"You don't need to say anything sorry, you chose a road that is a thousand times more difficult than mine. Let's say goodbye."

Lian Jue walked out the door with the child in her arms, Ru Yan's surprised voice sounded, "You want him to take Xiao Baa away?"

Lian Jue didn't hear what was said later, it must be the saddest answer.

When he came out, Dongli Yutian quickly stepped forward and hugged him.Lian Jue said, "I'm fine."

"Let me hold the baby."

"Need not."

On the carriage back to Dongli Ben's house, Lian Jue asked, "Will you treat this child well?"

"I will. Though I'm mad with envy."

Lian Jue suddenly became very low, "I sometimes wonder why no matter what I choose, I always have regrets."

Dongli Yutian comforted, "Although I'm jealous, I won't hurt him. On the contrary, I hope that you will feel better because of this. You always say it's your choice, but how do you know it's not mine or hers?"

After a while, Dongli Yutian said, "That woman is also worthy of admiration."

Carriages clanked down the street.

Liangdu is by the water, and several avenues used to be the neatest. In the fireworks alley, there are countless novelties, and now it is a scene of survivors.The management is chaotic, the garbage cannot be removed in time, and there is a rotten smell.

Lian Jue said, "Don't stay with me all the time these few days. There are fewer things in the military, and someone in the palace must take charge of the overall situation. The sooner the better."

Dongli Yutian smiled and listened to him, Lianjue was also happy to see the meaning in his eyes, "It's true that the three sentences are not far from the line."

"It seems that being an emperor is also an addiction. Your task now is to be a good father."

Because Dongli's family has a child, everything seems to be alive.

For this reason, Dongli Yutian renovated Dongli's house and transplanted various flowers and plants.Originally, there were not many people in the family, but there were a lot of craftsmen who made things for children.

Wang Nian hadn't stepped into Dongli's home for many years, and Qing Mei was the one who led her in. As soon as she came in, she felt that the atmosphere here had changed.The Dongli family, who was cold, colorless and never dared to slack off before, has also become ordinary.

"There's nothing I can do to get you back. That child has upset the entire Dongli family. Listen, he's still crying."

Upon hearing this, Wang Nian asked, "Who is taking care of the child?"

"It's not the two masters."

On the other side, Lian Jue looked at Dongli Yutian helplessly, his eyes were full of requests.Look at him, his chest is all wet, and there is still a fishy smell.

Dongli Yutian laughed heartily. "I told you not to hug you, get yourself dressed now."

So, he took off Lian Jue's coat, untied it, and stretched his hand inside, not restless at all.

Lian Jue was furious, "It's fine if you don't help me, but you still have to take advantage of it."

"Why don't I help, isn't this helping?" So he ordered people to put the bath water inside.

Lianjue refused to touch the urine-soaked clothes with a single finger.He said angrily, "It turns out that raising a child is so troublesome."

"This is boy urine, and the common people use it as medicine. It is said to have miraculous effects."

Lian Jue couldn't believe it.Those bewildered eyes are hard to put down.

Dongli Yutian took the opportunity to peck.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, I asked Qingmei to invite Mrs. Wang back, and let her help take care of the child, and you are responsible for playing with him."

After hearing this, Lian Jue breathed a sigh of relief, showing an expression that should have been like this long ago.

Dongli Yutian was secretly relieved that Lianjue seemed much more lively these days, maybe this child left him no time to worry about other things.

After he finished washing, he felt worried and went to the other room of Nuan Pavilion to look at Lianyun.Dongli Yutian had already gone to deal with other matters, Wang Nian took up his post and was putting the child to sleep.

Lian Jue looked at the old woman, although her hair was gray, she was in good spirits.And the old woman was also distracted for a moment when she looked at Lian Jue.

She suddenly remembered that there was a certain person in her memory, and the appearance of the two of them overlapped for an instant, and she couldn't help calling out, "Miss."

Suddenly, she realized something again, and said, "I'm being unreasonable, and I was blinded for a while, and I was abrupt."

Lian Jue asked casually, "Can the old man talk about it?"

Maybe it's because of old age, some memories can't be stopped suddenly, she can't hold back, "There's nothing to say, Miss has passed away for many years. You just look a little bit alike, but you don't look alike when you look closely."

"I've heard other people say that too, and I'm curious as to what kind of person they are."

"Miss has a hard life, and has a brother who is not as good as a beast. I am old and unreasonable. These words make the young master laugh."

Wang Nian didn't want to say any more. He should have kept quiet about such a secret matter, but he was full of complaints after all. If Dong Liye was still at Dong Li's house, Wang Nian would never set foot here again.

Lianjue saw the connection between this story and herself.He also hesitated, as if the truth was about to come out, he had searched for half his life, trying to find out the origin of his destiny, and now they were all gathered around him lightly.

"It's fine if you don't want to talk about the old lady, the child will be taken care of by you tonight." Lian Jue said sincerely and politely, and went away.

There is no moon outside the house, and the sky is full of stars. These are the few clear nights in late autumn.After a few hours, the water mist will rise from the ground and form hoarfrost.

Liang Ducheng fell asleep peacefully.

Lian Jue was a little cold, after all, his body was not as good as before, so he pulled on his cloak.He felt that he should cherish himself, for the only people around him.

P's: No one should have noticed that I took a clubbing, silently wishing you a happy Valentine's Day.
