Chapter 341 Summation
"Second Miss." That day, Yuan Ziyu was working on a new type of dim sum with Qingying in the small kitchen when Qingzhi hurried in. "I heard the Second Master is here and is currently at Shousong Hall."
"Second Uncle?" Yuan Ziyu looked up at Qingzhi and asked, "When did you come?"
"He has been here for a while. He said he came to visit the old lady." Qingzhi said hurriedly.
Yuan Ziyu pursed her lips slightly. Ever since Yuan Qilei moved out of the old house, although she had always wanted to repair her relationship with Yuan Qifeng, due to Yuan Qifeng's attitude, they rarely interacted with each other later. Even Madam Yuan gradually understood and no longer required Yuan Qifeng to have a deep brotherly relationship with Yuan Qilei. She just let things take their course.
Just like this year, Yuan Qilei only came to the old house during the Chinese New Year and rarely visited on weekdays.
Why did you suddenly come here today?
Before, Yuan Ziyou was only concerned with dealing with Liu Heng's family, and put Yuan Qilei aside. He had originally thought of dealing with Huainan Hou first, but now that Yuan Qilei suddenly ran over, Yuan Ziyou suddenly became alert.
Yuan Qilei has always been a man who would not do anything without a profit. He suddenly came here today. Yuan Ziyu absolutely did not believe that he did it out of mother-son love or brotherly friendship.
After thinking for a while, Yuan Ziyu instructed Qingzhi: "Keep an eye on it. If the Second Master does anything strange, report to me as soon as possible. Also, if Daddy comes back, tell me as soon as possible."
Right now, Yuan Qilei was in Shousong Hall, nominally to visit Madam Yuan Lao. As her niece, it was not easy for her to chase him away, otherwise, Madam Yuan Lao would definitely suspect that she was spying on Shousong Hall.
At this time in Shousong Hall, Yuan Qilei was kneeling at the feet of Madam Yuanlao, weeping and repenting.
"Mother, I know I was wrong. Before, I always thought that Ning and Tong'er were wrong, and I never reflected on myself. Now I think it was my indulgence that made them bolder. Plus, I had some small thoughts myself, which made my eldest brother's family suffer, and made You'er suffer several times. I know I was wrong, and I will never be so confused again!" Yuan Qilei hugged Madam Yuan's legs, looking remorseful, which softened Madam Yuan's heart.
After all, he was the son she had loved since childhood. Previously, Madam Yuan was angry at Yuan Qilei for disregarding family affection and being greedy, so her feelings for him had faded somewhat. But now, seeing Yuan Qilei, who was almost forty years old, kneeling before her and crying bitterly, with a look of regret, her heart softened and she hurriedly ordered Shaoyao, "Hurry up, help the Second Master up."
Shaoyao hurriedly brought two little girls forward, helped Yuan Qilei up, and sat him on a stool beside him.
The elder lady sighed and said, "Lei'er, are you here today just to admit your mistakes?"
"Mother!" Yuan Qilei said hurriedly, "I now realize my mistake. I came here today to apologize to you and my elder brother. I was wrong, really wrong. I was confused before. I hope you will forgive me this time."
"I was also at fault for what you did before. I shouldn't have indulged you and allowed you to harbor such ulterior motives." The elder lady sighed and said, "But the mistake has already been made. Your family has harmed You'er several times. It's a fact. I was foolish before and indulged you, hurting your eldest brother and the others. Now, I don't have the face to plead for you. Just talk to your eldest brother yourself. If he refuses to forgive you, then go back. I won't force him or her to do anything."
Now, Madam Yuan has always felt guilty towards Yuan Qifeng's family, and always thinking about how to make amends. She no longer has many demands on Yuan Qifeng's family, and just quietly lives as an old lady in Shousong Hall.
"Mom!" Yuan Qilei was shocked when he heard this and said quickly, "You have to help me, otherwise, my brother and the others will definitely not forgive me."
If it weren't for Madam Yuan's mediation, Yuan Qilei was sure that Yuan Qifeng would never forgive him, otherwise he would not have given him such a vicious poison as Qingyi Powder.
However, if Yuan Qifeng does not forgive me, how can I communicate with Yuan Qifeng, and how can I put those letters back where they should be?
"Lei'er, how can I help you?" The elder lady sighed. "Those things you did before, I feel so sorry for your eldest brother's family now. What's more, those things back then were not only condoned by me, but I was even the driving force behind them. Tell me, how can I help you? Lei'er, I can't bring myself to ask that!"
"Mom!" Yuan Qilei said with a look of regret: "Please help me just this once. I am truly sorry and want to ask for my big brother's forgiveness. Just think about how close I was to my big brother when I was little. We were so happy together back then!"
"Yes!" The elder lady nodded. "You two really had a good relationship when you were little, but how did you become like this when you grew up?"
Yuan Qilei looked at Madam Yuan Lao and lowered his head slightly: "Mother, I'm really afraid that my eldest brother won't forgive me. Please help me!"
As he said this, he slid down from the stool and knelt on the ground: "Mother, I beg you!"
When Madam Yuan Lao saw Yuan Qilei kneeling down again, she quickly ordered Shaoyao, "Hurry up, help the Second Master up!"
Shaoyao hurried forward to help Yuan Qilei up, and Nanny Bai said from the side: "Second Master, please don't force the old lady. The palace has just been peaceful for a short time. If this causes a rift between the general and the old lady, what will we do?"
Nanny Bai secretly felt sorry for Madam Yuan. How long had the mansion been peaceful now? She felt that what the Second Master and his family had done was too despicable. How could anyone forgive them?
This second master is still begging the old lady to help him, how can he help? Isn't it just asking the old lady to use her mother's status to pressure the general?
If that happens, the relationship between the old lady and the general, which had just eased not long ago, will become tense again!
Yuan Qilei was secretly annoyed by Nanny Bai's meddling, but now was not the time to lose his temper. He could only show weakness and cried, "Mother, if you don't help me, I will never be forgiven by my eldest brother in this life!"
"Lei'er!" The elder lady sighed and said, "You should talk to your eldest brother in person about this matter. As for whether to forgive him or not, it depends on what he and his wife think!"
"Mom, are you really not going to help your son?" Yuan Qilei's face was sad, but in his heart he hated Madam Yuan even more.
"It's not that I don't want to help, it's that I can't help you!"
The elder lady sighed and shook her head. No matter what happened in the past, she had no right to ask the eldest brother to forgive the second brother.
