"Mom, mom, stop talking nonsense, you will be fine, you will be fine."
Liu Mingzhi held the old man's hand tightly and shook his head in a hoarse voice.
"Mom, you are just tired, just a little tired.
You listen to my son-in-law, if you drink the decoction, you will be fine. If you drink the decoction, you will be fine."
"Yiyi."
Liu Yiyi hurriedly wiped the tears from her eyes, looked at her father and said with a choked voice: "Dad, the child is here, what are your orders?"
"Quick, quick, go get the soup for your grandma, go quickly."
"Well, let's go now, kid."
Qinglian's mother looked at Liu Mingzhi's panicked look, and placed her other withered palm on the back of Young Master Liu's hand tremblingly.
"child."
"Mom, please stop talking now, take a breath and drink the decoction before talking.
After you recover, you can tell your son-in-law whatever you want."
The old man obviously knows very well what kind of state his body has reached now.
She knew very well in her heart that if she didn't explain some things to Liu Mingzhi now, she might not have time to explain them again.
Therefore, no matter how Liu Mingzhi comforted herself, it could not stop her determination to explain what happened after her death.
"Child, ahem, kid, listen to my mother."
"Mom."
"Son, my mother understands what you mean, but she knows her own situation better.
If I don't say something to you now, I won't have the chance to say it again."
Qinglian cried, and Lihua sobbed twice, then stretched out her hand to tug at Liu Mingzhi's sleeve.
"Husband, you... hum... just let my mother continue talking."
When Liu Mingzhi heard what Qinglian said, the unrealistic psychological defense line he had been holding on to in his heart instantly collapsed.
He blinked his eyes hard several times, trying his best to not look so embarrassed.
Lian'er's pressure is already high enough now, and he really doesn't want Lian'er to see him lose his composure.
This once again increased the pressure on her heart.
Liu Mingzhi breathed a silent sigh of relief and nodded heavily to the old man.
"Uh-huh, grandma, you say it, you go on, my son-in-law is listening."
Qinglian's mother took a few hard breaths and turned her head slightly to look at Qinglian, who was standing behind Liu Mingzhi with tears streaming down her cheeks and wiping the tears on her pretty face with a handkerchief.
"My child, this silly girl Lian'er has a miserable life!
When she was young, her family suffered a natural or man-made disaster. Since then, she and her sister have followed their parents and lived a life of uprooting themselves from home, wandering around and begging for a living.
It was a calamity year, and the people's lives were miserable!
In order to leave a ration for them, the parents of her two sisters eventually starved to death in a foreign land.
Then, the two sisters became orphans without a father or a mother.
Fortunately, the road is boundless, and these two poor children met an old man who went to Jiangnan to visit his relatives.
When I first met the sisters, they were already hungry, skinny, and inhuman shape.
To put it bluntly, the two sisters were already so thin that they looked like they could be blown away by a gust of wind.
Because I had no children, I felt compassion and adopted the two sisters as daughters.
Under Lao Shen's care, Lian'er and her sisters managed to survive the disaster.
At that time, Lao Shen originally thought that the sisters could stay in Miao territory and live peacefully by his side for the rest of their lives.
Who would have thought that the two sisters relied on some poisonous techniques they learned from Lao Shen.
She went astray when she was young and became a sword-wielding maid beside the leader of the White Lotus Sect.
These two stinky girls were too young at that time, and they really didn’t know how high the sky was.
Is it possible for two stupid girls with no experience to get involved in a place like the White Lotus Sect?
as expected.
Lian'er, this girl, lost her only blood relative when she was as young as a flower.
That is her sister, Bai Shao.
later.
later.
Later this silly girl met you again.
Regarding all the things between you, you two are more clear-cut than I am.
I will no longer...ahem...no longer be verbose.
child."
"Hey, grandma."
"Lian'er, this silly girl, has a bad fate. It's really hard for her.
I will never have the chance to take care of her again.
She... hum... hum... she will leave it to you."
"Mom, my son-in-law knows, my son-in-law knows, please take a rest first, please take a rest first."
Qinglian's mother looked at the crying Qinglian with pear blossoms and rain in her eyes, and twitched her arm slightly.
"Son, grandma is tired and can't rest anymore.
I'm afraid that if I take a break, I won't be able to open my mouth again."
Liu Mingzhi noticed the old man's movements, and hurriedly released his hands holding the old man's withered palms, and led Qinglian to his side behind him.
Qinglian stopped next to Liu Mingzhi, knelt in front of the old man without hesitation, reached out and grabbed the old man's palm and placed it on her jade cheek, which was already stained with tears.
"Mom, mom."
"Silly girl, don't cry, don't cry, be obedient.
If you cry like this, my mother won't feel relieved to leave."
"Well, Lian'er doesn't cry, Lian'er doesn't cry, Lian'er is obedient."
Qinglian said that she would not cry, but the tears in her eyes slipped out of her eyes like rain.
It flowed down the cheeks and wet the clothes on the chest.
"Silly girl, you are not young anymore.
Not only is she a wife, but she is also a mother, a mother-in-law, and even a grandmother.
You must be sensible, be a good wife, a mother, and a mother-in-law.
You should also be a good grandmother.
Zhi'er is a boy with great talent and foresight. Whatever happens to you, you must discuss it with him more often.
Don't be too arrogant to make decisions, lest your good intentions turn into bad things.
No matter how much Zhi'er dotes on you, you must never do anything to show your favor.
Do you understand?"
"Yeah, yeah, Lian'er knows, Lian'er knows."
"My mother believes in you, don't let her down."
"I don't dare, Lian'er doesn't dare, I never dare."
Qinglian's mother looked at her well-behaved and sensible daughter and nodded happily.
With difficulty, he raised his hand and caressed Qinglian's tear-filled cheek. The old man looked at Liu Zhi'an and his wife with unsteady breath.
"I really can't stand it any longer. This silly girl Lian'er will be your biological daughter from now on.
If she does something wrong, you two should teach her a lesson.
At the same time, I hope you two can bear with me.
Please, please."
"Mom, don't worry, I already treat all my daughters-in-law as my own daughters."
"My mother-in-law, I know it, I know it."
"Thank you so much..."
The old man smiled gratefully when he saw Liu Zhi'an and his wife, and looked at Liu Chengfeng and his wife kindly.
"Ride the wind, Serena."
"grandmother."
"Being able to see the two of you getting married with my own eyes, grandma will have no regrets."
"grandmother."
The old man took a weak breath, and with more difficulty, he turned his attention to Liu Feifei and Liu Yiyi, the two sisters who had just returned with the soup.
"Yiyi, Feifei."
"grandmother."
"After you two sisters leave the government, don't forget to offer incense sticks to grandma.
Grandma...Grandma will be watching you from heaven.
I will also bless you.”
"Grandma, no, no, you will definitely live until Yiyi gets married."
"Grandma, Feifei doesn't want to get married. Feifei wants grandma to live well."
"You two silly girls, don't be sad, I can see you grow up one by one.
Even if grandma is gone, I can feel at ease.
Grandma, grandma, I walked away smiling."
"Grandma, please rest for a while."
"Grandma, Feifei, please, please take a rest."
The old man glanced at everyone in the bamboo house with longing eyes for the last time, and as if he had exhausted all his strength, he grasped the palm that was touching Qinglian's cheek on Young Master Liu's wrist.
"Child...child."
"Mom, my son-in-law is here, my son-in-law is here."
"Don't forget... don't forget what you promised to my mother... my mother.
Good...take good care of...take care of Lian...Lian..."
Before he could finish saying the word "Lian'er", the old man's palm on the back of Young Master Liu's hand slipped down weakly.
At the same time, the old man's neck was too weak and he fell on the pillow.
The originally dim eyes became completely dim.
There was no sparkle, no vitality.
However, there was a heartwarming smile on the old man's lips.
That smile seemed to contain a sense of reluctance to leave the world, and also seemed to contain nostalgia for the children.
Likewise, there is still a bit of relief for this generation of life.
Maybe it was just like what she said to sisters Liu Yiyi and Liu Feifei just now.
She walked away with a smile.
"Mom! Mom!"
The moment the old man died, his arms slipped, and his neck fell, Qinglian's heart-rending cry suddenly rang out in the bamboo house.
"Mom! Don't leave!"
Qinglian screamed in pain again, straightened up and gently nestled in the old man's arms, crying uncontrollably with tears streaming down her face.
"grandmother."
"grandmother."
"grandmother."
"mother-in-law."
"Mom."
"Mom."
"aunt."
In the blink of an eye, the bamboo house echoed with the shouts of a crowd of people.
The little guy Liu Chenyu seemed to be startled by the sad shouts from everyone in the bamboo house. He clutched his mother's waist tightly with his chubby little hands, held his neck and cried loudly.
Liu Mingzhi let out a long breath, raised his hand and patted the beautiful lady's back, and then held up the old man's arm that had fallen on the edge of the bed with both hands.
How many years has passed since you ascended the throne and proclaimed yourself emperor?
It seems that many years have passed.
Yes, it has indeed been many years.
Ever since I sat on that chair, it had been many years since I had witnessed someone driving away in front of me.
That being said, that's not entirely true.
After all, during this period, the movie owner and dozens of spy agents showed up in front of him with their generous sacrifices.
However, at that time, I was more filled with emotion and admiration.
Not like now.
It made me truly feel an indescribable sadness.
Liu Mingzhi silently placed the old man's wrist on the bed, and murmured softly with a sad expression.
"Mom, don't worry, old man.
My son-in-law will definitely not forget what your old man told me.
Moreover, no matter whether you give it to your son-in-law or not, I will take good care of Lian'er.
This is not only what I should do, but also what my son-in-law owes Lian'er."
"Lian'er, my condolences and submission!"
"Master, Master, I and Brother Chu are back.
In the morning, Lao Chan and Brother Chu went to the mountain to dig for herbs that neutralize the properties of ginseng, angelica and other medicinal materials.
Old madam, what is she doing now..."
Sai Huatuo and Chu Renxin, two medical experts, arrived before they arrived.
However, when they hurried into the bamboo house and saw the people crying, feeling sad, and sighing too much, they suddenly swallowed the words in their mouths.
Saihua Tuo looked at Qinglian's mother who was lying on the bed, already lifeless, and shook the herbs he just picked in his hand with a low expression.
"Destiny! Destiny!"
Chu Renxin on the side also tightly grasped the herbs in her hand, raised her hand to support her gray beard, and shook her head with a sad expression.
The complicated emotions of the two of them are naturally different from the grief of the three siblings Liu Mingzhi, Qinglian, and Liu Yiyi who have lost their loved ones.
Their sadness stems from the feeling of powerlessness that the patient has given up in front of them, but they are powerless and unable to save the life.
That feeling of powerlessness as a doctor but unable to save the world.
Sai Huatuo sighed heavily and walked towards Liu Zhi'an who was sighing with a complicated expression.
"master."
Liu Zhi'an raised his hand and patted the table next to him, then turned to look at Sai Huatuo.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Master, I have let you down."
Liu Zhi'an glanced at Qinglian and Liu Yiyi, who were still crying, and raised his hand to pat Sai Huatuo on the shoulder.
"Old man Sai, life, vegetation and autumn are all determined.
How can it be changed by human power?
You, don't take it too seriously.
My biological mother left with a smile.
She is already content with this life."
"master."
"No need to say anything, I know what you want to say."
"Okay, then I won't stop talking nonsense."
"lady."
Mrs. Liu hurriedly looked towards Liu Zhi'an, with a dull look of doubt in her eyes.
"master?"
Liu Zhi'an looked at his wife's doubtful eyes and said nothing. He raised his head and gestured to Qinglian who was lying on his mother's body.
"Well, I understand."
"Yun'er, Ya'er, Wanyan, Shan'er, you sisters, please give me some advice to this girl Lian'er."
"Yes, mother."
Liu Zhi'an started to walk towards Young Master Liu, and heard the head of the bed tugging Young Master Liu's sleeve.
Young Master Liu glanced at Qinglian who was crying bitterly, got up and followed his old man towards the main hall.
"Old man?"
"You bastard, your mother-in-law has no sons, so you, the son-in-law, should oversee her funeral affairs."
