After her figure was completely gone, Liang's mother walked out of the house and looked at Mr. Qi but hesitated to speak.
Seeing her expression, Mr. Qi showed a self-deprecating smile, "I was really just asking casually."
Mother Liang sighed in her heart, and then came over to help her in.
Mrs. Qi seemed a little uncomfortable, "I guess I'm getting older, but walking around this house now feels very strange.
I used to feel that there were too many people here, and the chatter of one or two people made it a headache, but now all of them have disappeared, and even the girl from the third room doesn't come out much now."
Mother Liang then said with a smile: "The girls have all left, and the remaining six girls have no playmates, so naturally they won't be able to come out."
Mrs. Qi was silent for a while, and then suddenly said: "How come the fourth girl disappeared like this!"
Xie Li...
It's been a long time since anyone could remember this name.
Her biological mother was originally a maid of the Qi family, but she was later raised as an aunt just to compete with other women.
After giving birth to Xie Li, she was basically not pampered. She just stayed in front of the Qi family every day, hoping that this would make the life of mother and daughter easier.
She was so pleased with the Qi family that Xie Li became a person who only wanted to please Jiang Shuhua.
If Jiang Shuhua's identity had not changed, she might indeed be able to please her mistress and get a good future.
But who knew that things in the world are so unpredictable that so many unexpected things would happen in the end.
Thinking of those years, Mrs. Qi couldn't help but sigh, "Although I have always looked down on her unattractive appearance, at least she has been quite well-behaved in front of me for many years.
I originally thought of finding her a legitimate son of a side wife or a concubine of the main wife with a fairly upright family tradition, but who knew she would have such a fate."
Mother Liang sighed in her heart again and said with a smile: "How can anyone be sure of anything in this world? From my point of view, if Madam thinks there is nothing wrong, she might as well ask about any suitable places in the capital.
Miss everyone.
Although we don’t know when our brother will come back, when he comes back, things will be sorted out immediately."
"Didn't I say that?" Mrs. Qi sat down by the window. Now that she was able to go out, she didn't feel any difference when she came back. She was lost in thought for a while before continuing, "Brother Lang's marriage.
I won't ask, let the old lady and his father worry about it.
Together, they can't harm him, so I can just watch from the sidelines, so as not to cause any further trouble."
Ms. Qi had said this before, and Mother Liang only thought she was saying it out of anger or to get Xie Yuncang to get her brother back.
After all, Mother Liang knows her wife’s temper best. How could she be so easy-going about her son’s marriage?
But now that there were only two of them, Qi still said this, which showed that he was sincere.
"Madam is right," Mrs. Liang nodded with a smile, "Madam is just waiting at home to have a grandchild, and while she was talking, she was about to have a grandson at some point."
Qi just smiled faintly and didn't seem to be interested.
Mother Liang knew in her heart that her wife was actually at a loss what to do now.
I used to be the housekeeper of my family. I had to worry about everything and take care of everything. I never had any free time all day long.
Later, something happened, and the master also took away the job of housekeeper and director, but there was still Jiang Shuhua at that time.
The wife regarded her as her lifeblood, and was devoted to planning for her, so naturally she was also very busy.
But now...
Even if I can cross the threshold, there seems to be no place to go.
Mother's family...
After what happened before, the relationship between the Xie family and the Qi family is still not harmonious.
In addition, when the Qi family heard that the Qi family often went to the East Palace to interact with Jiang Shuhua, they knew even more clearly that they could no longer get involved with her natal family.
After waking up, I saw many things clearly, including the relationship between myself and the Qi family in the past.
Thinking that she had thought about letting her son marry her niece before, she couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
With the way my mother's family behaves, my son may be dragged into trouble when the time comes.
I can't go to my parents' house, and the children are not here either.
There seems to be nothing in the house that I can participate in.
She didn't have the face to socialize with the ladies who used to travel between Beijing and China.
If asked, what would you say?
What's more, after such a long time, I'm afraid I know almost everything that I should know and shouldn't know. Then won't I just look at the curious and appreciative eyes of others?
What's more, as long as she has a good relationship in the past, who doesn't know how much she loves her daughter? If someone who is short-sighted asks her, how will she answer?
Therefore, Mrs. Qi now found that after she could step out of the Summer Palace, there was actually no place to go.
As a result, the whole person seemed to be wilted.
Lost all vitality.
Mother Liang then suggested: "The weather is nice today, why don't I go out with my wife for a walk? I have been eating the food in the house for a long time, and everyone is tired of it. I heard that several new restaurants have opened in the capital."
Let’s try something new in the restaurant.”
Qi was stunned for a moment and subconsciously wanted to refuse.
But Mother Liang added: "I have always heard from others that the food is delicious somewhere, but Madam, you have never been there even once.
Except for other people's invitations and entertainment, I rarely go out by myself. I am doing one thing or another all day long. Now I finally get free time. Wouldn't it be a letdown if I don't go?
Furthermore, seeing that the peach blossoms are about to bloom, let’s go live in a separate garden. It’s also great to enjoy the flowers. People who have nothing to do are light-weight and can go wherever they want. Such a free and comfortable life is not
Anyone can get by."
Seeing what she said was interesting, Mrs. Qi actually had a rare thought.
"I still remember that time when the old lady took a group of us to Bieyuan'er, and the sisters went out to catch peach fish!
Now that these young people are not here, we can go and have a look."
"No!" Mother Liang immediately agreed, "At that time, girls and young men were young and didn't care much about the rules outside. We can't be like them, but we can ask someone to prepare fishing rods and let's go fishing!"
