Chapter 031 Immortal
Rao was psychologically prepared for a long time, but Hyman was still surprised when he saw Mrs. Lin.
This is really an old lady. It is said that she is only 74 years old, but she seems to look older: her hair is white, sparsely distributed on her head, and you can see pink scalp; her face is vertically and horizontal, and the corners of her eyes and mouth are drooped down; her whole body is as thin as firewood, and a pale green robe is in The body is shaking around. He is trembling when walking, and there is a possibility of falling down at any time.
It doesn't look like an elder of a rich family at all!
Under the guidance of the maid next to her, Hyman knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Lin and offered another cup of tea.
The old lady only squeezed her dry lips in the mouth of the teacup. Even if she had drunk it, her turbid eyes looked at Hyman for a long time and spoke, "Son, it's hard for you!" The speech is still very clear.
Haiman was stunned for a moment and didn't know what she suddenly meant by this!
A big maid holding the old lady seemed to feel puzzled and explained to her with a smile, "Second young lady, our old lady loves you. When the old lady was young, the old man was gone. It was not easy for her to pull three children and stay widowed for most of her life. When the old lady saw you, she probably remembered those hard times she had spent in the early years!"
"Thank you for your concern!" Heyman didn't know what to say, so he had to thank him.
The old lady nodded, reached out and touched it in her arms for a long time, took out a red cloth bag, opened it with a trembling hand, revealing a pair of old but well-colored gold bracelets, and handed it to Hyman, "Child, take it!"
"Give it to me?" Hyman was a little surprised and hesitated to pick it up.
The maid came over with a smile, took the pair of gold bracelets and stuffed them into Hyman's hand. "Grandma, please accept them. To tell the truth, the young lady in the West Courtyard has been thinking about this pair of gold bracelets for a long time, but the old lady has never given them. I took it out as soon as I saw you today, which shows that the old lady likes you!"
The sudden gift of such a valuable gift made Hyman a little overwhelmed. She planned to leave Lin's house and accept other people's things, which seemed inappropriate.
Mrs Lin seemed to see her hesitation and sighed, "How difficult it is for a woman to have no husband, and you don't have children. What can you do in the future? Just keep it. Maybe it will be used sometime. Anyway, I'm dying, and I can't take it down!"
"Don't look at the old lady like this, she's not confused, but she can be right!" The maid smiled and added another sentence.
After saying this, she couldn't refuse any more, so she had to kowtow, "Thank you, grandma!"
"Okay, good boy!" The old lady grinned with a few teeth and seemed to be very happy.
Hyman chatted with her again and found that the old lady spoke very little, and most of the time it was the maid next to her who spoke for her. When she spoke, she saw that the old lady's knees were a little swollen, probably because she often knelt down to the Buddha and broke her knees.
She always thought that the old lady of the Lin family was a well-givated person. She drank tea and read scriptures when she had nothing to do. I never thought that she had been widowed for most of her life. Even if she lived a good life now, she was not at ease and sought stability by chanting scriptures and worshipping Buddha all day long.
This is just a lonely and poor old man!
If she had known this, she should have accompanied her more often. Mr. Lin and those men only know how to do business. Mrs. Lin only has a son in her heart, and those people in the West Courtyard are afraid that they only think about the family property and will not treat the old lady sincerely at all. Not to mention Jiang Haihong and Zheng Ruxue, Shen Qiaoqiao's mouth is too stupid...
It's sad enough to think that this old lady has raised three children alone. Now she has a big family and a lot of children, but she is lonely!
Thinking about this, Hyman talked with the old lady for a while, and the old lady was also very happy. It was not until the maid urged her to go to rest that she let Hayman go.
Back to Yuzhiyuan, Haiman went back to the house to look for it.
"Second young grandma, what are you looking for?" Mei Xinger looked upset and couldn't help asking.
"I remember that there is a piece of material called 'cold silk' in the dowry cloth. Where did you put it?" She asked as she looked.
Mei Xinger thought for a long time, then ran out and quickly brought in a light gray cloth. "Is this one?"
"That's right!" Hyman twisted it with his hand, took it happily, spread it on the table, and measured it with scissors.
Sister-in-law Qu came over and asked, "Second young lady, do you want to make something?"
"Well, I want to make a cushion!" Hyman glanced at the cloth, "This cloth can make a dress, and the rest of the material can also make two cushions!"
She saw a lot of her sister-in-law making clothes, but it was the first time she saw her make cushions. "Grandma, why do you suddenly think of making cushions? Is that also going to be sold?
"If you don't sell it, you will give it away!" Hyman smiled and began to cut. She cut it and told Mrs. Qu about the style and points of attention, and then Mrs. Qu started to get a needle and thread. By the afternoon, the two cushions were ready and the clothes were almost sewn.
This time, there were few things made, and Mei Xinger couldn't help. She only looked at it while, which was quite boring. As soon as she looked out of the door, she saw that it was not boring. Jiang Haihong spread anger all over her body and walked in quickly!
"Second young lady!" She stood up alertly and called Hyman.
Haiman looked up, and Jiang Haihong had stepped into the door and walked straight to her. He raised his hand to fight.
Hyman reacted quickly and reached out and grabbed her wrist. "The sister-in-law of the West Courtyard is really used to splashing. Last time she came to curse, she was going to fight this time, right?"
"You... you vicious woman, what have you done to us alone to make him become... like that?" Jiang Haihong's face was ferocious because of anger, and he stared at Haiman fiercely.
Hyman shook his hand, let go of her wrist and said coldly, "Then you should ask what your son has done, and you should also ask yourself what you have done. Only when the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked and the mother's heart is not right will he teach such a shameless son..."
"Hit!" Jiang Haihong rushed over again. Seeing that the situation was not good, Sister-in-law next to her hurried over to hold her, "Grandma, if you have something to say, don't do it!"
"Can I talk about it? From morning to now, we have seen several doctors and said that he... I'm afraid he can't have sex in the future. I'm afraid our one will... break the root..." Jiang Haihong said and sat on the ground and cried.
Hyman was shocked. She just wanted to punish Lin Guang, but she didn't expect to abolish him. She was not so cruel! Why did he hit it so much that he was immortal?!
