The Divine Doctor and the Crazy Concubine: My princess is very cool

It was already evening when the two finished taking a bath.

It had been a long time since anyone had chatted with the old lady like this, so Shangguan Qingge stayed in the yard for dinner.

In terms of meals, the old lady strictly followed Shangguan Qingge's requirements, so during this period, she had dinner in her own courtyard and did not go to the main courtyard to eat with others.

While serving the dishes, Shangguan Qingge taught the old lady how to use the essence and facial cream, and told her that the essence and facial cream could be used in the morning and evening, and the facial mask only once every four days.

The amount Shangguan Qingge prepared was enough for the old lady to use for a month. During this month, the old lady didn't need to bother her.

The two chatted a lot during dinner. The old lady was really happy today. Ever since she followed her son to the capital, she had followed the local rules of not talking while eating or sleeping. No one had chatted with her at the dinner table for a long time.

Many times, she wanted to chat while eating, but seeing that others were concentrating on eating, she could only eat silently. In the past in the village, there were not so many rules. At the dinner table, everyone ate and chatted, talking about today's events, family matters and so on. But her son said that he came to the capital and became an official, so he was an official family, not a country bumpkin, so he had to abide by these rules. She was afraid of causing trouble for her son, so she obeyed them naturally, but it was depressing.

I didn't expect that the eldest granddaughter was willing to chat with an old woman like me, and didn't care at all even if she said some vulgar words. But the other grandchildren couldn't stand hearing such words.

Shangguan Qingge listened to the old lady talking about the past and began to think. Her grandmother became a widow when her scumbag father was eight years old and suffered from the contempt and bullying of the clan. Fortunately, she had a son. In order to let her son study and make a name for himself, she trained herself to be strong and did not remarry for the sake of her son. She earned money by herself and supported her son. Her scumbag father did not let this mother down. At a young age, he passed the imperial examination, won the top spot, and became a disciple of the emperor!

There was no top scholar from a poor family with a scumbag father in the first ten years, and there has been no top scholar in the last few years. It is conceivable how difficult it is for a poor family to pass the imperial examinations.

"Grandma, have you ever thought about pursuing your love again?" Shangguan Qingge said lightly.

When the old lady heard this, she was startled and scolded.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How can a woman be so bold? Besides, grandma is old, and you are disrespecting her by saying this."

Shangguan Qingge curled her lips and said.

"Why not? Women are also human beings and have the right to pursue happiness."

Shangguan Qingge told the old lady about the lives of those old men and women in their previous lives in a very exaggerated way, including their happy twilight love. Of course, she said that all of this was what Master Yuanyu saw and heard when he traveled around the world, and then told her.

When the old lady heard that others had such a happy old age, she hesitated.

"Won't others think you are disrespectful to your elders for what you said?"

"What? Don't the elderly have the right to pursue happiness? After suffering for most of their lives, what's wrong with wanting to pursue a happy life in their later years?" Shangguan Qingge said angrily.

"But, won't my children say anything about this?"

"No, a child who truly respects his parents must want his parents to be happy in their later years. Such happiness is not just about having enough food and clothing. In addition to having enough food and clothing, of course one must pursue happiness. Grandmother, let me ask you, scumbag... When father was young, did you ever think of remarrying? But if you remarried, were you afraid that your new husband's family would mistreat him?"

The old lady nodded. It was indeed true, that was why she did not remarry. However, the person was gone, and the living should of course live a good life. But she had a son, and for her son, she would endure any hardship or fatigue.

"Look, my father is now a second-rank official and no longer needs your protection. So why can't you pursue your own happiness? Even if it's just to have someone who understands you! Living alone for so many years, don't you feel lonely?"

The old lady remained silent, but Shangguan Qingge knew that these words touched her heart. After years of widowhood, who wouldn't want to have someone who understands her and can rely on each other!

Shangguan Qingge grabbed the old lady's hand and continued.

"Grandma, although I have conflicts with this family, I am also a human being, and my heart is made of flesh. No matter how dissatisfied I am, I am only dissatisfied with what my stepmother did to me. I am angry why my father only listened to my stepmother and never listened to me. Tell me, who would have nothing better to do and make the family restless every day? In fact, I just hope that my family will be happy."

Shangguan Qingge had a serious look on his face, and his eyes revealed a look of concern for everyone. The old lady saw it and was a little moved!

It seemed that she had never taken good care of this granddaughter. Even if she was the disaster star mentioned by the Taoist priest, she was still the blood of the Shangguan family and a family. How could family members have different opinions? In the past, in the village, as long as they were a family, they supported each other and no one would drive someone out because of what happened to someone else. At least, that was the case in her family!

"It's getting late, grandma. I'm going to go back first. You should go to bed early."

Shangguan Qingge said goodbye to the old lady and went back to her own yard. The worried look on her face changed the moment she turned around!

If you want to worry about this family, forget it! She hoped that this family would feel in decline, so that she would justify the torture they had endured for so many years, justify her mother's loss of life, and justify her elder brother's death outside.

At night, the old lady lay in the rocking chair, thinking about what her eldest granddaughter said. Everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness, but are you happy?

She was sure that she was happy. When her son passed the imperial examination and married the daughter of Marquis Zhenbei, she was extremely happy because she had finally made it after years of hard work. However, this happiness was short-lived!

Ever since his son's official position became higher and higher, he has been returning home less and less. His two daughters-in-law have to take care of the household and are very busy. When his grandchildren were young, they could still accompany him, but as they grew up and had their own studies, they spent less and less time with him. In the end, only the old woman beside him was left to accompany him, but servants are servants after all and will not cross the line.

The arrival of her eldest granddaughter tonight made her talk a lot. It has been a long time since anyone had a good chat with her like this.

The old lady shook her head and returned to bed, choosing to rest early.
