512 Mother and Son Meet (2)
The reason why Old Madam came to Xixia Garden was because of the little fellows’ daily habits. The three of them originally lived in Old Madam’s courtyard, Wutong Courtyard. They slept early every day and naturally woke up early. The first thing the little fellows did when they woke up was run to Old Madam’s courtyard. Usually, Old Madam had just woken up at that time. Today, Old Madam had been sitting in her room for most of the day, but she did not see her great-grandchildren come over. When she asked, she found out that the little fellows did not rest in their courtyard last night and went to Xixia Garden.
After that, the old madam did not hear what the maidservant said at all. She only knew that her great-grandchildren stayed in another courtyard last night, which was as far away as her! In a fit of anger, the Old Madam personally went to look for her great-grandsons. In the end, she bumped into Yu Shaoqing.
Yu Shaoqing had entered the manor late last night. Old Madam and Helian Beiming had both rested, so he did not disturb them. Logically speaking, he should meet his “in-law” relatives today, but the Helian family was not really his in-laws. Who knew how that kid pretended to be the eldest young master? In short, it was better for him not to meet the Helian family to avoid complicating matters.
However, who would have thought that they would bump into each other so carelessly? Yu Shaoqing was not mentally prepared at all. Of course, Yu Shaoqing did not recognize her. He felt that she was an especially benevolent old lady…
!!
In the next second, this old lady threw away her walking stick and pounced on Yu Shaoqing. Yu Shaoqing was stunned by the pounce. The pig buns on his plate almost fell to the ground. He had been busy all morning just to satisfy his little black eggs!
“Old, old, old…”
Yu Shaoqing couldn’t say any other word as Old Madam cried at the top of her lungs. “Bull Egg—”
Yu Shaoqing’s heart trembled. What was going on? The Old Madam grabbed Yu Shaoqing’s clothes and cried like a child. “You’re finally back. You left us and our children behind for so many years. Your conscience has been eaten by a dog…”
No, old lady, I… that… you… what… Yu Shaoqing’s brain was numb. Was he still asleep? Why did he encounter such a thing after cooking breakfast? What Bull Egg? If this was a young girl, he would have pushed her away. However, she was an old lady. Any move of his could kill the other party. He could not bear it and decided to reason with her. He took a deep breath and said patiently, “Old lady, listen to me…”
Before he could finish speaking, the old lady’s cries stopped. She widened her murderous eyes. “You said I’m old?!”
“Uh…” This tone was not right. Could it be that he had said something wrong? For a moment, Yu Shaoqing did not know whether to admit it or not.
Old Madam slapped him! Yu Shaoqing’s head was hit hard, and his mind became even more numb.
The Old Matriarch sat on the ground and cried even more sadly. “You heartless… You’ve only been gone for a few years, and you already think I’m old… Who am I working so hard for… When you went to war, who was the one who took care of your parents’ shit and pee at home? Who was the one who served your children? Who raised your brother? Who is it!”
The old lady also had a story, but old lady, I’m really not your Bull Egg!
The old madam cried and kicked her legs, startling all the servants in and out of the courtyard. The servants looked at Yu Shaoqing as if they were looking at a heartless man!
Yu Shaoqing: “!!!”
Yu Shaoqing wished he could find a hole to hide in. While the Old Madam was crying, he covered his face with a plate of pig buns and quietly walked into the room. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to cross the threshold, one of his feet was hugged by the Old Madam.
He was caught off guard and fell to the ground, stunned. The plate fell out and the pig buns scattered all over the ground. Then, under everyone’s burning gazes, he dragged his feet back, with the old lady hanging on his feet, to his courtyard with unprecedented strength!
Under the sunlight, only a few pig buns were left in Xixia Garden. The scene was tragic and beautiful.
Little Sly Jiang had her legs crossed and was hugging the little black eggs in her arms. She was sleeping so well that she did not know that her husband had been snatched away.
The little black eggs had played crazily for most of the night last night and were sleeping soundly now. Besides, so be it if their grandfather was snatched, it wasn’t like their grandmother had been snatched.
Yu Wan heard a little commotion, but she thought that it was caused by the little fellows. She turned around and hugged Yan Jiuchao to sleep.
Yu Shaoqing wanted to cry. You guys, come and save my life!
At dawn, Helian Beiming woke up from his sleep. He had been lying in bed recuperating for the past few days. Perhaps because he had slept too much, he did not fall asleep before dawn. The maidservant on duty fell asleep on the table. When she heard the commotion, she sat up. “Grand General, you’re awake?”
“Yes,” Helian Beiming replied indifferently. “Where’s Yu Gang?”
The maidservant said, “In the small kitchen. I’ll go call him.”
Yu Gang was brewing medicine for Helian Beiming in the small kitchen. This was what Old Cui had instructed him to do. He would boil it three times a day, one for less than an hour. He would first boil it over a large fire, then slowly boil it over a small fire. Every fifteen minutes, he would put in a snow lotus. There could not be any mistakes in the fire and time. Yu Gang was worried about leaving it to others, so it was usually him or Yu Wan who did it.
When the maidservant came to call him, he had just boiled the medicine. He had calculated the time. When the medicine was almost cold, the general should have woken up.
“Big Brother Yu, the great general is awake,” the maidservant said.
“Eh? So early today?” Yu Gang was surprised. On second thought, it didn’t seem strange. After all, he had slept for a few days and should be quite energetic. He said to the maidservant, “Got it. I’ll go over now.”
Yu Gang carried the medicine into Helian Beiming’s room. Helian Beiming suddenly wanted to eat buns this morning. Yu Gang instructed the kitchen to steam a basket of buns.
“Take two sips of porridge to fill your stomach first. Drink the medicine. The buns will take a while to make,” Yu Gang said.
Helian Beiming nodded and took the medicine bowl that was no longer hot. Just as he took a sip, the Old Madam’s trusted maidservant rushed over. “Aiya, General, something bad has happened! Something big has happened!”
Helian Beiming frowned. “Why are you so flustered?”
After all, she was the Old Madam’s personal maidservant. How could she look so rash? So what if the sky fell? There had to be the rules of a rich family, right?
How could the maidservant not know that she had lost her composure? However, Old Madam’s actions were really shocking. She once suspected that her jaw had fallen off and then reconnected. “Old, Old, Old Madam, she, she…”
“What happened to my mother?” Helian Beiming asked. “Did she fall ill again?”
The maidservant said in fear, “She dragged a man back!”
Pfft—
Helian Beiming spat out a mouthful of medicine.
Old Madam had a crazy illness that acted up from time to time. Helian Beiming was already used to it. As long as she did not hurt herself, Helian Beiming thought that it did not matter much, but dragging a man back—
His father’s grave was going to be green. This couldn’t be done!
“Where did she drag it back from?” Helian Beiming asked coldly.
The maidservant said fearfully, “I-I think it’s Xixia Garden.”
Xixia Garden?
Last night, Yu Shaoqing and Madam Jiang entered the manor late and did not alarm the others, so Helian Beiming and the maidservant did not know that a guest had come to Xixia Garden.
Jiang Hai and Ah Wei’s family lived in Xixia Garden. The young ones had all gone out to do something, but the old man, Grandma, was still living in the courtyard. Helian Beiming naturally thought of Grandma.
Grandma was about the same age as Old Madam, and he looked quite unfathomable and charming. It actually seemed reasonable for Old Madam to like him.
Helian Beiming clenched his fists. This old and disrespectful fellow actually seduced his own mother without a word?! Helian Beiming couldn’t care less about his injuries. He immediately got into a wheelchair and let Yu Gang push him to Wutong Courtyard.
The maidservant followed closely. “Old Madam… seems to call him Bull Egg.”
What? He even pretended to be his father? With his appearance, how was he similar to his father? Helian Beiming came to the Old Madam’s room. He took a deep breath and handed the dagger in his sleeve to Yu Gang.
Yu Gang asked in confusion, “What?”
Helian Beiming said expressionlessly, “I’m afraid I won’t be able to help but kill someone.”
Yu Gang : “…”
The door was ajar. Helian Beiming’s wheelchair rushed in. He looked coldly at the man who was dragged into the room by the Old Madam and refused to let go of the pillar.
At the same time, the man looked at him.
The moment their eyes met, the two men were stunned.
