Chapter 3811 Years Are Long, Clothes Are Thin
The maid reached out to pick one, pinned it to her temples, and said with a smile: "This begonia flower is indeed delicate and beautiful, so it is worthy of Madam's appearance."
Hong Luan smiled and said: "I'm old."
"Madam has not aged at all, she is still very beautiful."
"It's just your sweet mouth."
"This is not a compliment, my lady. If you don't believe me, go ask someone else." The maid said with a smile, "You have just been sick and your face is a little pale. Now you are better. If you take care of yourself for a while, you will become the same as before."
Hong Luan's lips curled up slightly, her head leaned on the back of the chair, and she looked up at the high sky. The delicate begonias and the gentle wind flew away from her fingertips.
Everything is so real and yet so far away.
…
When Jin Lan returned, she held a peach blossom in her hand and wanted to show it to Hong Luan with a smile on her face.
From a distance, she leaned back in the lounge chair and closed her eyes.
The sun danced on her eyelashes in the breeze.
Her skin color is so white that it makes the sun look clearer.
Jin Lan was startled, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
He slowly approached, knelt down in front of her, and said softly: "Hong Luan, look, the peach blossoms are about to bloom."
Got no response.
Hong Luan closed her eyes, as if she was asleep.
Only the begonia on the temples trembled slightly in the warm wind.
Jin Lan looked at her face quietly and whispered: "You once said that you loved the peach blossom forest where the Queen Mother took you the most. When the peach blossoms bloom, I will take you to see it, okay?"
When he said the last two words, his voice trembled.
He put the peach blossom branch on Hong Luan's lap, leaned his head on her arm, and shed tears one by one.
The maid soon discovered something was wrong. After the shock, she knelt down in tears.
The news of the lady's death soon spread throughout the house.
The housekeeper sent someone into the palace to deliver a letter. When Cai Cai, who was feeding the little princess, heard about it, the dishes in his hands fell to the ground, making the little princess cry.
Emperor Yan'er hurried over and ordered someone to take the little princess away, "Why is it that everything was fine and then disappeared?"
Caicai's face was filled with tears: "I'll be getting better next year."
The nanny on the side sighed: "I think Madam has been holding on, in order to let everyone have a happy New Year."
After hearing this, Caicai cried even harder and immediately got up and went back.
"I want to see my mother."
"I will go back with you."
At this time, Caicai didn't care about the rules and etiquette, and didn't have time to change his clothes. He took a carriage with Yan'er and hurried to Jin's house.
Jin Mansion has begun to hang up white cloth.
When Caicai saw it, he couldn't hold it in any longer, and his tears kept falling.
When he saw Jin Lan, he looked very calm except for the slightly red eyes.
But the calmer it becomes, the more worrying it becomes.
Next comes the funeral.
From beginning to end, Jin Lan did not show excessive sadness, and he still dealt with the court affairs that should be dealt with in the same way.
But he became even more silent.
After the funeral, he seemed to have aged a bit.
The Jin family became even more deserted.
Occasionally, someone would advise Jin Lan to marry another person, for no other reason than that someone should take care of the huge Jin family's back house.
Jin Lan remained unmoved.
If you say one more word, he will get furious.
Seeing that he refused to remarry, some members of the Jin family's branch persuaded him to adopt a boy from the same clan as his son, so that he could inherit the family business of the direct branch of the Jin family in the future.
Jin Lan also ignored it.
This went on for two months, until the weather got hotter, and Jin Lan's health deteriorated a lot.
