Xianggui

Mi Hongmian looked tired and her eyes were red.

"My mother-in-law's health has gotten much better in the past few years. I don't know why she suddenly became like this. The imperial doctor said that it may have something to do with the colder weather this year..."

Mrs. Qi said clichés, "Good people have their own destiny, Mrs. Dong will be fine."

Almost all the people who come to visit me say this.

After sending the Qi family away, Xunxiang entered the bedroom.

Mrs. Dong was lying on the bed, her face was sallow, she was thin and out of shape, and she was looking more haggard than when she was in Jiaozhou, looking very sick.

Although Xunxiang knew that she must have taken some medicine to cause this on purpose, she was still very sad.

The day of farewell is getting closer and closer.

Xunxiang called softly, "Auntie..."

Mrs. Dong opened her eyes and looked at Xunxiang, and said feebly to Mi Hongmian, "There is Xiangxiang here. Go back and see Brother Cheng."

With Xunxiang around, Mi Hongmian returned to her yard with peace of mind.

There was no one in the room, so Mrs. Dong stretched out a hand, and Xunxiang put it in.

Mrs. Dong sighed, "I can't let go of Ping'er and Cheng'er, and I can't let go of you either. In my heart and my heart, you are our daughter..."

She made a pun and tears welled up in her eyes.

Xunxiang said, "Auntie, I can't let you go either. You have to be good."

If Zhang's maternal love is the most primitive pampering and doting, what Mrs. Dong gives her is the most intellectual maternal love.

Be gentle and deep when she should be gentle, and help her resist all unkindness when she should be strong...

She knew that Mrs. Dong was most worried about Dong Ping and Dong Youcheng, so she made another pun, "In my eyes, my eldest cousin is my biological brother, in my grandfather's eyes, he is his biological grandson... You and us will always be family."

The two talked for a while, and then some female relatives came to visit him.

Xunxiang went to the hall to receive her and introduced Mrs. Dong's condition.

At dusk, Dong Yihe returned home, and Mi Hongmian also came with Xiao Youcheng.

Little Youcheng, who was more than four months old, reached out for his grandmother to hug him.

There were so many servants, so Dong Ping took the child and asked his mother to hold her little hand, and then he took him to a side room.

The soft curtains were hung up, and Mrs. Dong looked at her grandson in the other room dreamily.

After dinner, Mi Hongmian took her child back to her yard.

Judging from the situation, Dong Yihe and his wife's plan was hidden from Mi Hongmian. It's not that I don't trust the daughter-in-law, but I don't want to make her too worried and scared.

Several people entered the bedroom and sent the servants out.

Xunxiang took out the family portrait she drew.

Dong Yihe and Mrs. Dong sat on both sides of the Eight Immortals table. Dong Yihe held Xiao Youcheng in his arms, and Dong Ping and Mi Hongmian stood behind them.

There is a photo frame on the table of the Eight Immortals, with Dong Fang's portrait inside.

Except for Dong Fang, the other people in the painting appear as if they were real people.

This is a standard color family portrait from the previous life, and the size is not the standard vertical banner of this era.

Xun Xiang said, "Don't frame it. Just make a glass photo frame and put it in like foreigners do." Dong Yihe and Mrs. Dong liked it very much and looked at the painting for a long time.

Xun Xiang took out another "photograph", pursed her lips and said with a smile, "My uncle and aunt treat me like my own daughter, and I want to join you too."

In the painting, Dong Yihe and Mrs. Dong are sitting on chairs, while Xunxiang is standing and leaning next to Mrs. Dong.

Xun Xiang in the painting is very similar to Dong Fang in another photo frame, like a grown-up Dong Fang.

Seeing this picture, Mrs. Dong hugged Xunxiang into her arms and whispered, "Xiangxiang, my daughter..."

Dong Ping's eye circles were also red.

Dong Yihe sighed and said, "In Xiaomin and I's hearts, Xiangxiang is our biological daughter. In the future, when we are gone, you brothers and sisters should love and support each other.

"Ping'er must take good care of my sister and not let her be wronged. Xiangxiang is a precocious child. You, your brother, and other descendants of the Dong family, you must also take good care of. Ping'er must not be blinded by glitz, Shou. Just enjoy the peace and happiness with the title of nobility."

He has been planning for this son, hoping that his son will not be alone when they are away.

Not only did he hope that Ding Zhuang and his son would love their son more, he also helped his son find the powerful Mi family to become his in-laws. But he knew that the person who could best help his son and the descendants of the Han family in the future would still be Xiangxiang.

Ke Xiangxiang is still a child now. The Sacred Heart is unpredictable and suspicious, the Ding family has a weak foundation, Dongyang is reckless, Xun Qiandai is aloof, and the Xun ancestors are old...

If she were here, Xiangxiang would still have someone to rely on. Xiangxiang is working too hard without him.

Dong Ping held back his tears and said, "Don't worry, dad, my son will remember his parents' teachings and will take good care of his sister."

Xun Xiang knew Xun Yihe's thoughts and said, "My eldest cousin is my biological brother. We will support each other..."

Dong Yihe nodded and said solemnly, "You are a smart boy. I believe you have guessed some things. Although I admire Emperor Qingguan, I hate the dog emperor Zhenkang. He listened to Greedy and killed the entire Han family.

"Because of this hatred, I don't believe in the emperor, and the emperor doesn't believe in me... In order to preserve the blood of the Han family as much as possible, and the surname Han, I have been looking for opportunities to stay away from the Li Dynasty... In the future, no matter where Xiao Min and I are, we will Thoughts and blessings to you."

"We will take care of some matters first. In my early years, I established several trading houses in Mingzhou Prefecture and Guangzhou Prefecture, leaving two for Ping'er and two for Ding Zhao.

"I have already agreed with Ding Zhao that I will give one to Xiangxiang in his name in a few days... Alas, Xiangxiang has helped me a lot. The only things my uncle can give you are these yellow and white things."

Dong Yihe raised his hand to touch her face. Thinking that she was already twelve years old and this was Dali, he put his hand down again and patted her shoulder.

Dong Ping shook his lips, but Xiang Liu didn't say what he said.

The father said that their mission was to find another paradise for the descendants of the Han family, but that road was too difficult. And his mission is to stay in Dali to preserve the bloodline of the Han family...

Mrs. Dong’s maiden name is Yang Min. Xunxiang knew that Concubine Li's surname was Li, and Mrs. Dong's real surname should also be Li, but she didn't know the specific maiden name.

Dong Yihe opened his mouth, and Xun Xiang also said clearly, "I have always known that my uncle and aunt are good to me. I am also a descendant of the Han family. I hope that the Han family can have prosperous heirs and pass it on..."

Xunxiang's tears welled up, and she couldn't bear to leave them.

They are here to rely on and rely on her. They can do many things that she cannot do.

Mrs. Dong cried again.

From the bottom of her heart, she didn't want to leave her youngest son, and she didn't want to go to an unknown world to fight for an unknown future. But if her husband chooses that path, she will support and follow him without hesitation.

Suddenly, her mouth opened wide and she couldn't breathe.

Dong Ping quickly asked Grandma Wang to come in and prepare a bowl of powder to feed her and help her rest.

Grandma Wang and others are the absolute confidants of the Dong family. They will go far away with them in the future, and they know many things.

Dong Yihe took Dong Ping and Xun Xiang to the West Room for secret talks.
