Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 346 Talking (2)
Widow Zheng glanced at him, poured a cup of chrysanthemum tea and put it on the table, and said, "Sit down, my mother is not the kind of person who likes to make fun of others, she also looked at you today, and suddenly felt that you have grown up, so she suddenly couldn't help it." Just to tease you."

Chen Xuewen smiled and sat down on the side of the couch, took a sip of tea from a cup, raised his eyes to look at his mother's room, and thought about how to speak to his mother about things in the capital.

Widow Zheng knew what her son was thinking, but she was not in a hurry. After listening to those things, she had let go of what should be let go in the past ten years, so she didn't care much about those things anymore, and Well, her son had written her a letter earlier, and she had already counted the general things.

"Mother, my son has already met him, and he has entered Chen's residence twice." Chen Xuewen decided not to beat around the bush, and told his mother directly.

Because, he can see that his mother has really let go, and now she doesn't care about those past events and old people.

Sure enough, when Widow Zheng heard this, she didn't have any troubles on her face, but said lightly: "Oh, this is inevitable, when you decided to go to Beijing to catch the exam, mother had already predicted it. After all, he is in the officialdom, you can't avoid him even if you want to."

"Mother—" Chen Xuewen called softly, but didn't say anything.

Widow Zheng smiled slightly. She knew what her son wanted to say, and remembering what was said in the last reply, she said: "Mother doesn't care anymore, but you are father and son after all, there is no need to make it like an enemy. You are still from the Chen family after all." Bloodline, since he has no heirs under his knees, he must hope that you can recognize his ancestors and return to his clan."

"I really didn't expect that there would be retribution from the gods. That woman did a lot of evil and tried every means to squeeze us mother and son away. But after all, she fell in the way of other women and killed her own son. Go in. Mother, I heard that the current backyard of the Chen Mansion is a mess of filth. In order to give birth to a son and inherit the family business, that man has taken in countless concubines and concubines, but after so many years, he still has not fulfilled his wish. If you think about it, you will know why, so many women are jealous and jealous, and they have their own ghosts, so it's no wonder they can't have a son. Now, there is only one daughter in the entire Chen family. It is said that she was born in a concubine's room and was raised by that woman. Isn't this the retribution of being ungrateful and ignorant back then, who believed in the words of traitors?" Chen Xuewen said with a sneer.

Seeing him like this, Widow Zheng knew that her son had gone to the capital, but he still couldn't let go of the old grudge in her heart. She was also very helpless about this: "Xuewen, after all, he is your biological father. This is forever. The fact that cannot be changed. Mother originally just wanted to take you and hide in the countryside. She didn’t want to have any relationship with the capital anymore. She wanted to live this life in a mediocre way! But, your ambition is not here, you want to study for fame , Mother did not stop you. From the moment you step into the capital, no matter what you decide, Mother will not interfere with you, but Mother just hopes that you can let go of the resentment in your heart."

After Chen Xuewen heard this, he lowered his head and remained silent. Seeing this, Widow Zheng felt even more helpless. This son liked to keep everything in his heart since he was a child, and he shouldered it silently.

"Mother knows why you agreed to go back to Chen's house. After thinking about it, I know that mother can still sit here quietly without being disturbed by others. It is nothing more than an agreement between you and your son." Widow Zheng sighed helplessly. He took a breath and said.

When Chen Xuewen heard this, he was not surprised at all. With his mother's intelligence, he must have guessed it early in the morning, and he never thought of hiding it. He was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said: "Mother , I hope to give you a quiet and harmonious life."

"Mother understands, mother thank you." Widow Zheng said with a comforting smile.

"However, I didn't agree to go back to Chen's residence. This time when I return to Beijing to report on my work, I will buy a house by myself outside." When Chen Xuewen said this, there was a hint of disgust on Chen Xuewen's face.

Seeing this, Widow Zheng couldn't help showing a bitter smile, nodded and said, "No matter what you do, mother will support you. You have been calm and steady since you were a child, and mother believes that you can handle everything by yourself."

Chen Xuewen nodded, and the mother and son stopped talking about the Chen residence. He could see that the mother was unwilling to talk more, so Chen Xuewen changed the topic: "Mom, this time I went to the capital, and I also went to a foreign country. Ancestral home."

When he said this, Chen Xuewen kept looking at his mother's expression. He knew that in the entire capital, if there was anything worthy of his mother's concern, then only his grandmother was the only one.

However, after hearing this, Widow Zheng still had a calm expression. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Is your grandmother okay?"

"Well, she is in good spirits, and I heard that she is in good health. And my grandfather, both of them are in good health, and I haven't heard of any illnesses. Uncle, he is now a minister of the Ministry of Rites. They got married in [-], and the eldest son is five years old now. As for the little uncle, I haven’t seen him this time. They are all outside the family. The little uncle is the magistrate in Linhe. I heard that his term will expire next year and he can return to Beijing. Yes. There is also my little aunt, who married into the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, and is living a good life now." Chen Xuewen said while looking at his mother's face.

Chen Xuewen knew that his mother seemed unwilling to marry that man back then, but because of his grandfather's tough attitude, his mother had no choice but to marry him.

Therefore, my mother has always complained about my grandfather over the years, and at the same time has become more and more estranged from my grandfather's family, but in his impression, my renter's mother has always been very kind to him. Hearing her regretful words and missing her own mother, Chen Xuewen was deeply moved.

Therefore, although he knew that his mother might not want to hear it, he still told it.

In fact, Chen Xuewen's thoughts were not entirely correct. After all these years, Widow Zheng had let go of everything in the Chen residence, so how could she not let go of her resentment towards her father.

"I'm relieved to hear that they are doing well." Widow Zheng said while looking at the tea in the cup. There is also no trace of waves.

Chen Xuewen waited quietly, but only heard what her mother said, and there was no more to say, so he asked: "Mom, don't you want to go back and have a look? Grandma is getting old, and she saw me this time. , holding my hand all the time, telling me how I missed my mother. Moreover, I heard that my grandfather has never given up looking for us since our mother and son left the capital for so many years."
