In the early morning, the morning light shone obliquely through the window lattice and shone on a corner of the glass mirror, reflecting a ray of light that was particularly dazzling. Luo glanced at the large glass mirror in the distance, hesitated for a moment, and sat down in front of the mahogany carved dressing table next to the bed.
In the bronze mirror on the dressing table, the woman's face was not very clear. Her skin was slightly yellowish, her hair was ear-length, and she was wearing an amber jacket. Although she had been a laywoman for more than five months, she was still not used to wearing makeup. She looked similar to the bright and beautiful woman who had long gone, but also very different.
Fourteen years have taken away my youth and elegance. The humiliation and hardships of the past are not only on my face, but also on my heart. The morning bells and evening drums, the wooden fish and the scriptures, can no longer grow...
She thought that the days of this world would pass day by day, year after year, until death. But it turned out that those fourteen years were like a puff of smoke, drifting in the air, and no trace could be found.
However, those fourteen years that passed by were a catastrophe in her life, taking away her husband, her happiness, her family, and changing her entire life.
Now she is back again, no longer Lechen, but Luo Yun, Luo Shi, or "Mrs. Luo" as others call her. Her old mother accompanies her in Tangyuan, her grandchildren watch over her and show filial respect to her, and her family and happiness seem to have been regained.
Did you find it again? Probably not...
"Grandma, we should go to my great-grandmother's place."
A soft voice came from behind, bringing Luo Yun back to his senses.
Luo Yun smiled and turned around to see a little girl of about two or three years old walking in. The little girl was wearing a water-green skirt and had two small buns on her hair. She was very cute.
Luo Yun said, "Xiao Yu'er, why didn't you sleep a little longer?"
Xiao Yuer came to Luo Yun's side and said, "Niao Niao said, 'Good morning, good morning, good health.'" Then she wondered, "Grandma, the glass mirror reflects white, but the bronze mirror does not. There is dust on the face, but the bronze mirror cannot see it."
Luo Yun smiled without saying anything, picked up a lilac hat from the dressing table and put it on. The hat looked a bit like the hats worn by foreign women, but not exactly the same. It was strange but not exaggerated, and there were a few natural flowers embroidered on it.
This was made by her daughter-in-law Chen. Chen likes to make hats for her now, and has asked people to bring her more than a dozen hats. They are of different styles and colors, beautiful and elegant.
Xiao Yuer widened her eyes exaggeratedly again and said loudly, "Wow, grandma is so beautiful."
His little appearance made Luo Yun and the serving maid laugh.
Luo Yun pinched her little face and said, "Little elf, you are the best at talking." Then, he took her to Yiran Courtyard.
Old Lady Luo took Lechen back to Tang Garden. She did not follow Madam Luo and Master Luo back to Shizhou Prefecture, but continued to live in Tang Garden. She said that after such a long journey, her old bones could not stand the tossing and turning. She could only recuperate here and then return to Shizhou Prefecture.
Mrs. Luo was the head lady of the Luo family, so she had to go back. Mr. Luo had to go to the government office, so he had to go back too. Mrs. Luo, who helped the first lady with household chores, also had to go back. Then, only Luo Yun, who had nothing to do, had to accompany the old lady to recuperate in Tangyuan.
Old Madam Luo made such arrangements. Not to mention others, even Luo Yun knew why she did so, but he had no choice but to stay here with her.
Not only that, the old lady also forcefully kept the sweet-mouthed little Yu'er in Tangyuan. Everyone could see that Chen was reluctant to let her go, so she had no choice but to grit her teeth and keep the little girl.
The little girl was indeed likable and made the old lady and Luo Yun in a good mood every day.
The eldest grandson Yu Ge'er was also in the countryside. He did not live in Tangyuan, but lived in Fuyuan to accompany his grandfather. He would go to Tangyuan many times a day. Of course, Xiao Yu'er would also go to Fuyuan many times a day. Because the little brother and sister were nimble and liked to report the situation to each other, the two courtyards would know each other even if there was a little movement. Luo Yun did not want to know, but that voice was forcing itself into her ears.
Old Madam Luo lived in Yiran Courtyard, while Luo Yun and Xiao Yuer lived in the former Zen Temple, which has now been changed to Qingfeng Courtyard.
As soon as you enter Yiran Courtyard, you can smell a faint smell of medicine. Luo Yun specially asked Master Guiling to take the old lady's pulse and prescribe medicine. In addition, Chen Afu gave her a few small pieces of the miraculous medicine that Master Wuzhi gave her. They boiled it into soup and soaked it every night. The old lady's health has improved a lot.
Before entering the house, Xiao Yuer started calling out, "Grandma, Xiao Yuer and grandma are here to have dinner with you."
The laughter of Grandma Luo came from the room, "Okay, okay, Grandma is waiting."
The old lady was lying on the bed, Luo Yun fed her half a bowl of rice, and the servant took the bowl and continued to feed her, while Luo Yun went to the table to eat. Xiao Yu'er ate some first, and then the servant fed her some more.
Luo Yun just started eating eggs a few days ago. After Luo Yun returned to secular life, she has been unwilling to eat muddy food. The old lady felt sorry for her daughter's poor health and persuaded her for many days before she started eating eggs. However, she still didn't eat meat, but she could still accept the people at the same table eating it.
After dinner, Xiao Yuer went to Fuyuan for "class". Her teacher was her eldest maid Dongyue, who had received formal training from Xiayue. The teaching materials were the building blocks and comic strips left by Chen Afu. In addition to Xiao Yuer and Mingger, there were also Dalong and several children of the servants.
Before leaving, Xiao Yuer invited the old lady again, "Grandma, the sun is so bright today, why don't you go to Fuyuan to bask in the sun? You can also watch my brother and I practicing martial arts, and there are lots of birds." In fact, she wanted to invite grandma to go. However, she invited grandma many times, but she didn't go because she didn't want to see grandpa.
Thinking of their martial arts practice, the old lady laughed heartily again and said, "Okay, okay, if the sun is good, great-grandmother will go to watch her grandson practice martial arts."
Seeing Xiao Yuer running out of the house, Luo Yun started to massage the old lady again.
The old lady sighed and said the same old things, "Yun'er, although Guangche hurt your heart, you can't blame him for that. The late emperor asked him to do that, could he not do it? Not doing it is defying orders. He asked you to become a monk to protect you, it was a temporary measure. Over the years, he has not changed his mind, he has always been thinking about you, and he has forced Rong Zhao into the nunnery without mercy. Everything he does now is to make you change your mind. Yun'er, we won't force you, we just hope that you can slowly figure it out, but don't be too stubborn. You are forty-five years old this year, and your youth is gone. If you really wait until you are too old to move, it will be too late to forgive him and live a good life..."
As soon as the old lady mentioned this, Luo Yun stopped talking. He bit his lips tightly and waited for the old lady to continue.
Her mother, brother, sister-in-law, and all her family members said she was stubborn. Although her son and daughter didn't say it explicitly, they must have thought so in their hearts.
She also knew that everything he did was out of helplessness, a disguised way of protecting her. However, she couldn't stand the thought that she was forced to become a nun, alone in the nunnery missing her children, while he was embracing another woman...
