"Okay, you can sit down too."
After Liu Zhi'an took a sip of tea, he looked happily at Qinglian's mother.
"My mother-in-law, we haven't seen each other for many years. Is everything okay?"
Qinglian's mother sighed softly and turned to look at Qinglian who was sitting diagonally across the bed, her cloudy eyes filled with distress.
"My father-in-law is old and no longer useful.
Not only is it useless, it’s also causing trouble for the children.”
Mrs. Liu heard the sadness in Aunt Qinglian's tone and hurriedly put down the tea in her hand.
"My mother-in-law, please don't say that.
We sisters have not seen each other for so many years. Sister, I see that you are no different from before.
You are not old, not at all."
Qinglian's mother laughed bitterly and raised her palm with difficulty.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Liu immediately stood up and sat on the bed.
Qinglian's mother grabbed the back of Mrs. Liu's hand with trembling palms, and shook her head with a bitter look.
"My mother-in-law, you don't need to comfort me. I know very well how my body and bones are.
You, please stop saying nice things to make me happy."
"My mother-in-law, don't think too much, don't think too much, everything will be fine, everything will be fine."
"mother-in-law."
"Why."
"My father-in-law."
"Mom, my brother is here."
"I have caused trouble for you again. Jiangnan is so far away from the Miao border area of ​​Shu. It's really hard for you and your wife to come all the way."
Liu Zhi'an stood up and walked to the bedside. Looking at Qinglian's mother's guilty look, he waved his hand disapprovingly.
"My mother-in-law, you are just talking about this.
You are the mother-in-law of this child Zhi'er, and my brother and wife are the father-in-law and mother-in-law of this girl Lian'er.
We are a family, and there is no need to cause trouble among a family.
Besides, brother, I have worked hard for most of my life to save a fortune for the children below, and I have long wanted to take my wife to have a good time.
Coming to Shu to visit you this time not only allows my brother and wife to relax, but also gives us the opportunity to appreciate the beautiful mountains and rivers of our Shu.
This is all thanks to your blessing, my mother-in-law!"
Qinglian's mother couldn't help but laugh a few times when she saw Liu Zhi'an's sincere expression.
"My father-in-law, you are so eloquent. I really can't speak to you."
"My mother-in-law, you also know that I am a businessman, and what is important in business is to be articulate and well-rounded.
Brother, if I didn't have this eloquence, how could I have accumulated such a large fortune for the children below?
This is your brother’s special skill!”
When Mrs. Liu heard Liu Zhi'an's humble boasting, she glared at him angrily.
Liu Zhi'an noticed Madam Liu's unhappy gaze, raised his hand and pressed the tip of his nose a few times with his palm, and gave Madam Liu a vague wink.
Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly.
My master is telling me to change the subject and not continue to talk in depth about the topic of typhoid fever.
The husband and wife have been together for decades, so she naturally understands Liu Zhi'an's character.
With just one look, she already understood what Liu Zhi'an wanted to express.
Mrs. Liu gave Liu Zhian a knowing look, raised her eyes and glared at Liu Zhian and spat softly.
"Old man, can't you be more reserved in front of your mother-in-law?
You are already dozens of years old, and you are bragging about yourself so shamelessly, do you still want that old face?"
"Madam, what you said makes no sense. How can I brag about myself in front of my mother-in-law? What I said is obviously the truth."
"Yes, it's true, but you don't need to brag about yourself in front of your mother-in-law?
What do you have to brag about? Do you want to show off how much money you have to your mother-in-law?"
"Hey, madam, where do you start with these words?
I'm just telling my mother-in-law that I'm very eloquent, since when did I show off?"
Qi Yun and the others looked at the couple who started arguing out of nowhere, with expressions of astonishment on their faces.
This? What is going on?
We were talking happily, but why did we start a quarrel?
Qi Yun and the others looked at each other with tangled expressions, wondering whether they should step forward to break up the fight now.
Qinglian's mother looked at the old couple who kept bickering, shook her head with a wry smile, raised her hand and patted the back of Mrs. Liu's hand.
"My father-in-law, my mother-in-law, please give in to each other.
As the saying goes, when a couple quarrels, it's a quarrel at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed. For the sake of my pity, don't say a word, don't say a word."
Mrs. Liu glared at Liu Zhi'an and snorted, then turned to look at Qinglian's mother and smiled.
"Sister, this old thing is so annoying."
"Hey, no matter how annoying I am, you have been following me for decades.
I've been angry with you for decades, aren't you still reluctant to leave me?"
"Old man, whoever is reluctant to leave you is reluctant to leave you.
Tomorrow we will leave under the witness of Zhi'er, the emperor's son, do you dare?"
"Hey, madam, just say this..."
"My father-in-law."
"Brother is here."
"My father-in-law, just say a few words less."
"Yes, yes, brother, listen to your mother-in-law. Brother, I just want to see your mother-in-law's face, and you don't have the same level of experience as this womanly person."
Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes at Liu Zhian and said nothing more.
Qi Yun and the others realized what was going on when they saw Grandma Qinglian's helpless face and her energy obviously getting much better.
Qinglian breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Liu Zhi'an and his wife with eyes full of gratitude and touch.
She naturally saw that her father-in-law and mother-in-law were deliberately quarreling to divert the heavy topics from the past.
Just when Qinglian's mother was about to say a few words of comfort to Mrs. Liu, Young Master Liu's somewhat excited voice suddenly came from outside the room.
"Selena, this is your grandma's room. Quickly take Chenyu in to meet her."
"Yes, daddy."
"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey."
Liu Chengfeng suddenly stood up and hurriedly ran towards the bamboo house.
Liu Zhi'an and the others looked at each other, with excitement flashing in their eyes.
Huangtian paid off and finally arrived.
"father."
"Aunt Yan, Aunt Lingyi, you are finally here, the children are polite."
The third princess and the others waved their hands with tired expressions on their faces, and stretched out their hands to help Liu Chengfeng up.
"Good boy, get up quickly."
