"I did send one or two letters back home by carrier pigeon a few days ago, but I haven't received any letters from him recently." Mrs. Xiao blinked and replied.
She didn't know the old lady's intention in asking this question.
But still tell the truth.
"Oh no! Could it be that the dream was real?"
Madam Xiao lowered her eyes, bit her lip, and murmured softly.
Mr. Xiao became more and more confused as he listened. He frowned slightly and asked again, "Mom, don't keep me in suspense. I'm getting more and more confused the more I listen. Just say whatever you want to say."
The old lady was really weird today.
She keeps asking random questions. I don't know what she wants to do?
"I suddenly had a dream when I was taking a nap just now. I dreamed that something happened to Er." Old Madam Xiao said with a frown.
Madam Xiao opened her mouth and said, "Mother, it's just a dream. Don't worry too much. I'm afraid you are too worried about Er. That's why you think about it during the day and dream about it at night. Besides, don't people say that dreams are the opposite? Mother dreamed that Er was in trouble. Doesn't it mean that they are safe now?"
Although she felt a little nervous when she heard what Old Madam Xiao said, Madam Xiao took into consideration that the old lady had been feeling unwell these days and worrying about it was not good for her health.
She still suppressed the worry in her heart and opened her mouth to comfort Old Madam Xiao.
Madam Xiao raised her hand and waved it, "No, I don't know how to tell you, that dream was so real. Er and the others have been away from home for so long, and this is the first time I have had such a dream."
Mrs. Xiao's comfort had no effect on her.
The old lady shook her head and bit her lower lip.
"So mother, you sent Xiaolan away just now by making excuses on purpose, just because of the dream you told me?" Mr. Xiao felt that Mrs. Xiao was too jumpy.
It's just a dream, it doesn't mean anything at all.
She had such a dream because she was feeling unwell and too weak.
"How can I explain it to you so unclearly?" Old Madam Xiao saw that her son and daughter-in-law looked unconvinced, so she said anxiously, "Although it was just a dream, it is definitely not as you said. It is not just a dream. It is not a simple dream. I have been very nervous since I woke up. Something must have happened to Er Er. Yunqi, Wan'er, send a pigeon to Wujing, and send a skilled waiter in the mansion to inquire about the route Er Er and his friends took. If it is just an ordinary dream, let the waiter follow Er Er. With one more person by his side, I will feel more at ease."
The old lady held Mr. Xiao with one hand and her daughter-in-law with the other, and spoke to them.
Xiao Yunqi and his wife looked at each other, and after looking into each other's eyes, they understood each other.
Old people tend to become more stubborn as they age. They stick to their own opinions and won't listen no matter how much others say.
Arguing with the other two here would only make the old lady more agitated.
Regardless of whether her dream was true or false.
They did as she said, firstly to follow her wishes and reassure the old lady, and secondly to verify it so that they could feel at ease.
"Mother, Wan'er and the master listen to you. We will do as you say. Don't worry. I will go to the kitchen and ask the cook to make a bowl of soothing soup for you. After drinking it, you will sleep better at night."
Madam Xiao blinked and said.
"Mom, do you have any other instructions? If not, Wan'er and I will go out first. I'll call Xiao Lingling in. You can close your eyes for a while." Xiao Yunqi lowered his eyes to look at Old Madam Xiao on the bed, licked his lips, and opened his mouth to speak to her.
"I'm free here. You just go out and take care of what I just said. I'm not going to sleep anymore. Lan'er should be coming out of the kitchen soon. Yunqi, go call Xiao Lingdang in and help me get up and change clothes." Old Mrs. Xiao shook her head.
She certainly couldn't feel at ease until things were settled and she hadn't heard any news about her grandson.
Instead of tossing and turning in bed, it is better to get up early.
"Mother, if you want to get up, there is no need to ask Xiao Lingdang to come in and help you change clothes. Wan'er will change your clothes herself."
Madam Xiao opened her mouth and said.
"Yes, mother, my husband and I are right in front of you. You didn't ask us to serve you, but instead called Xiao Lingling in. You think we are not as caring as Xiao Lingling, right?" Xiao Yunqi looked at the old lady's tense expression. In order to let her relax, he opened his mouth and said jokingly.
Madam Xiao raised her eyes and glanced at her son. "Look at what you are saying. Even if I dislike your clumsiness, Wan'er is my own daughter, my little cotton-padded jacket."
"Yes, yes, mother, you don't need to emphasize this. I naturally don't dare to compare myself with the lady in your heart. This is definitely asking for humiliation. Your son still has some self-awareness."
Xiao Yunqi said with blinking eyes.
Madam Xiao raised her hand and patted him gently, "Okay, don't come here and chat with mother. I'm here with mother. Go and do what mother asked. Remember, you must choose a reliable waiter. The outside world is not peaceful now. You must tell him to hide his money on the road. Tell him not to show his money on the road. He must understand the principle of not showing wealth to others."
She was afraid that Xiao Yunqi would ignore these small problems, so she raised them to him one by one.
"Madam, do I need to remind you of this? I am not a three-year-old child. How could I need Wan'er to remind me of such a simple truth?" Xiao Yunqi blinked, raised his eyebrows, and asked.
