The servant woman realized that she was hindering the reunion of mother and son for a long time. She quickly replied, "yes, yes, look at my confusion!"
Then he turned and walked out with a smile and closed the door from the outside.
Hearing that the footsteps were far away, Zhan Yunzhu slowly turned back and looked at his mother, who was much older due to illness.
"Jin Ping..."
Jia held his son's hand tightly and cried out the name with tears in his smile.
"My mother's health is not good... My son is so ashamed that he can't serve his mother these days." Zhan Yunzhu raised his other hand and wiped Jia's tears.
"This is the retribution that mother deserves. Mother doesn't blame anyone..."
Jia looked vaguely in his eyes and said, "in order to cling to the Xia family, we did such a wrong thing and hurt the innocent girl of others... This is retribution. It's like God's thunder... The murderer of the Xia family had no place to hide..."
She was originally a Buddhist. She had a hard conscience when she helped her husband do those things. Later, when something happened, she first thought of the word retribution.
Although she was hit by her husband's and son's accident, she was unable to escape because she fell into guilt and repentance day and night.
And because he didn't have money to buy tonics and ask a wise doctor, his body could only collapse a little bit like this.
Listening to her talk about it, Zhan Yunzhu looked at her straight: "mother, don't mention these things anymore."
At the beginning, the world did not know that he was also a participant.
If it is spread, it will easily destroy everything he has worked hard to get again.
It seems that mother is really ill and confused
"No... the mother said these things. She has something important to tell you..." Jia looked at his son and said, "Geun Ping, let's remember that everything has cause and effect. People live and can't do anything bad..."
"Did you hear about your sister?" when he mentioned his daughter, Jia burst into tears and lost his voice: "she was the one who didn't know about it, but she was also implicated by the evil debts of our family. It seemed that she was evil and had no reason to plan for the girl of the Xu family... She ended up in exile. What do you think is retribution?"
Seeing that she kept talking like a demon, Zhan Yunzhu stopped and looked at her calmly.
"I repent in front of the Buddha every day... I beg the Buddha again and again to fulfill all the retribution on me. As long as I can make my Jin come back safely and safely, even if I suffer all the pain and torture to death, I am willing - Jin Ping, do you think the Buddha has heard it?"
Jia cried and smiled and said, "that shows that God still cares for my son... We have suffered enough retribution in our family."
Then a ray of hope burst out of his eyes: "Geun Ping, we still have a chance. In the future, we will do good deeds, do good deeds, accumulate blessings and virtues... Life will always get better..."
Zhan Yunzhu smiled: "my mother said that life will be better. My son has made great efforts to help me. It won't be long before he can become an official in the dynasty."
"Help..." Jia was surprised and happy, and more unbelievable: "seriously?"
Zhan Yunzhu nodded.
"After his son threw himself into the river, he was saved by Shangshu Ji of the Ministry of war, but he suffered from amnesia and forgot the past. He remembered it a few days ago and hurried to see his mother."
He knows what to say to make his mother happy.
As for the difficulties and dangers in the process, there is no need to mention a word more, and let mother listen to them happily.
"Mother knows that you are filial and haven't come back for so long. Something must have happened..." Jia told him: "Ji Shangshu saved you and is your noble benefactor. We should repay others in the future!"
He also said: "and the Ji adult and Ji Fuyin in the Beijing yamen... Are also good people and good officials! And Miss Xu, Jiao Jiao almost hurt others, but after Jiao Jiao was taken to the yamen, Miss Xu sent someone to take care of me... This must still take care of the friendship between our two families in the past..."
Zhan Yunzhu smiled and said in a slow voice, "Zhaozhao has always been hard spoken and kind-hearted..."
"Yes, we should not only thank you, but also compensate face-to-face. When our mother's body is better, we will go to the town government to make amends. The Xu family has always been generous and generous, and will forgive us..."
Zhan Yunzhu gave a faint smile and squinted at his old, sick and weak mother.
Didn't mother say that as long as he came back, she was willing to suffer all the pain until she died?
Why now, I want to keep my body well?
Sure enough, people are greedy and never satisfied.
His eyes looked inch by inch at his mother's dry lips, waxy yellow face, turbid eyes and dry gray hair.
"What did the doctor say about mother's illness?"
"The doctor said..." Jia's eyes dodged for a moment, as if he didn't want to worry his son: "the doctor said that it would be good to take good care of yourself, and now my mother feels half better when she sees you back..."
Zhan Yunzhu nodded, turned around, raised his hand, poured out a bowl of tea, brought the gaping thick porcelain bowl to Jia and said, "mother, have a cup of tea."
When his son sat in front of the bed, he could only have it in his dream. Jia was full of happiness and joy, so he drank with the bowl in his son's hand.
But the tea was already cold. She only drank a few mouthfuls and coughed violently.
Zhan Yunzhu slowly put down the tea bowl and patted her on the back.
Jia coughed until his face flushed. When he stopped, his strength seemed to be drained.
Zhan Yunzhu helped the man to lie down.
"Jin Ping... Mother is fine, don't worry." after a burst of coughing, Jia's voice was hoarse and terrible.
"But my son doesn't want my mother to suffer like this anymore." Zhan Yunzhu sighed softly and said in a low voice, "my mother's illness is probably not better... My son can only repay my mother's kindness in the next life."
"Mother will be fine..." Jia shook his head to his son and tried to pull the corners of his mouth, trying to make his expression look less painful.
In the sight, the son stretched out his hand and took the pillow standing at the head of the bed.
Jia Shi was still smiling.
Her son is very filial, she will get better, and her son is going to be an official. She should get a wife and have children soon. Then she can enjoy the happiness of her family
She will teach children to do good, do good
The vitality in her heart was spreading and growing rapidly. Her expectation for the future made her forget to feel the pain.
However, the pillow taken by her son was not placed behind her head as she imagined
