Chapter 15 Visiting the Chai Family
"Shall we go back first?"

Li Jingji touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

Li Yu pursed his mouth, spread his hands, and leaned on the wall outside the firewood member, as if he would not leave if he was beaten to death, and he must see him today.

Li Jingji could only keep knocking on the door. After all, it was a matter that his father asked Meng to explain. If he just went back like this, there would be no business.

"Boom boom boom!"

He knocked a dozen times, and the door opened again.

Steward Song poked his head out, a little helpless: "Li Jia Erlang, what are you still doing?"

"The mother at home asked me to deliver peaches, and brought my nephew to pay a visit to Chai Yuanwai, how could I not come in?"

Seeing that Steward Song refused to let him in, Li Jingji frowned slightly.

"Li Jia Erlang, I am doing this for your own good, do you know?"

Before Steward Song could finish his words, a female voice came from inside the door.

"Let him in. Since he is a close neighbor, he shouldn't be so negligent."

The woman's voice is very nice, with a faintly charming feeling.

Steward Song's old face trembled when he heard the voice, as if he was a little afraid, he didn't dare to say more, so he could only let him go.

The middle door was wide open, and only then did Li Jingji see the whole picture of the speaking woman.

She was wearing a blue bird skirt with wide sleeves, and her hair was tied into a bun with three thousand blue silk. She had a graceful and charming figure.

With just one glance, Li Jingji and even Li Yu were a little lost.

"Sister is so pretty."

Li Yu was childish and had no taboos, so he said it directly.

"The little guy has such a sweet mouth."

The woman in the green radish skirt lowered her head and smiled, full of charm.

"Who is this?"

Li Jingji glanced at Steward Song suspiciously.

He was no stranger to the Chai family. When his father was still alive, he would ask him to run errands and give gifts every year and festival, but he had never seen such a woman.

"This is Yuanwai's new concubine, Mrs. Xu."

Steward Song didn't dare to look up at Mrs. Xu, and said in a low voice, as if he was worried about something.

"Chai Yuanwai actually took a concubine?"

Hearing this news, he was even more puzzled. In his impression, Chai Yuanwai and his wife were like glue, they were married for more than ten years and had never taken a concubine. They had loved one person all their lives. How could they suddenly take a concubine?
But this doubt has long been diluted by Xu's beauty, and Li Jingji didn't think it was too outrageous.

If there is such a charming beauty in his arms, even a man will find it difficult to hold her back.

"Old Song, go get busy, I'll entertain the guests."

Mrs. Xu took Li Yu by the hand and gave instructions to Steward Song.

Song Steward felt relieved, and hurriedly left.

"Are you here to visit the master?"

Mrs. Xu walked in front, leading the way for the two, and asked casually.

"That's right, I haven't seen Chai Yuanwai for a while, and I want to walk around. In addition, my nephew hasn't seen Chai Fang go out for half a month, and I miss him. He always pesters me to bring him to see him."

Li Jingji looked at the furnishings of Yuanwai's mansion, everything was as usual, but there was always an indescribable smell in the air.

It seems a bit like the smell of wild foxes in the depths of Nanshan.

Thinking of this, he covered his mouth and nose with his palm and coughed twice.

"Master is not in good health. He is lying at home these days and rarely goes out."

"As for Fang'er, the family was afraid that it would be unsafe for her to go out alone, so they temporarily stayed at home."

Xu turned her head and smiled sweetly: "Let's take you to see Fang'er first."

Soon, the three came to a room on the far right of the Chai family.

"Fang'er, your friend is here to see you."

Mrs. Xu pushed the door open, and Chai Fang was lying on the ground.

There were paste, bamboo strips, gauze strips and other objects on the ground. She cut the cloth with a paper knife very seriously, and she was actually making a kite.

"Auntie."

Seeing Auntie coming in, Chai Fang raised her head, lacking in interest, but when her gaze followed Li Jingji and landed on Li Yu, she immediately jumped up.

"Little Yuzi, why are you here?"

Chai Fang threw away the paper knife and bamboo bone, and ran over immediately, holding Li Yu's hand, and the two children naturally had endless conversations.

It was mainly Chai Fang who was talking. She showed Li Yu the kite she had made as if showing off, and agreed to wait a few days before the two of them went to the field to try flying it.

Li Yu nodded again and again, she didn't have the slightest bit of wit in front of her elders, she just looked at Chai Fang with silly joy.

"By the way, these peaches are freshly ripened at home, so I specially sent some here for Chai Yuanwai to try."

Li Jingji looked at it for a long time before remembering, and handed over the fruit basket in his hand.

"Chai Yuanwai is not feeling well, can I go and have a look?"

The purpose of this trip was mainly to let Li Yu see his little green plum, but when he heard that Chai Yuanwai was ill, Li Jingji couldn't help but want to go and see her.

In his impression, Chai Yuan had always been physically strong, so how could he be so ill that he couldn't go out?

Moreover, he felt that when he came to Chai's house this time, although everything was normal on the surface, there was always an indescribable weirdness in the atmosphere.

"Alright, you come with me."

Xu didn't refuse, and left the two little guys to play by themselves in the room. She brought Li Jingji to the main house.

"Master, Li Jia Erlang wants to come and see you, will you see me or not?"

Through the paper window, Xu asked.

"Ahem, let him in."

There was a rapid coughing sound in the room, and the voice outside the firewood member was a little hoarse.

Mrs. Xu pushed the door open, and Chai Yuanwai was resting on the bed.

It was midsummer in July, and the heat in Nanshan Village was unbearable. Most of the passers-by were dressed in short clothes, but the firewood staff were wrapped in thick cotton wool, and they were very afraid of the cold.

"Uncle Chai, what are you doing?"

Li Jingji's expression was astonished, he hadn't seen him in just a few months, Chai Yuan was like two people, originally in the prime of his life and full of energy, but now his face was pale, withered and fleshless, like a terminally ill person.

"go out!"

Chai Yuan looked solemn outside, and shouted: "I have a few words with Nephew Li, you don't have to wait here."

"Master, you are not in good health. If there is any discomfort, I will be by my side so that I can take care of you as soon as possible."

Mrs. Xu stood where she was, without stopping, as if unwilling to leave the house.

"go out."

Chai Yuanwai supported the bed with his hands, barely stood up, and it took a lot of effort to repeat this sentence.

The two confronted each other for about three breaths, Xu Shi voluntarily gave in, and turned to Chai Yuan, Li Jingji made a gesture of blessing, turned and left.

Chai Yuanwai and his wife have loved each other for half their lives. They were supposed to be a couple of gods and wives for a lifetime, but they suddenly took a concubine. It stands to reason that the Xu family can make Chai Yuanwai make such a big change. The relationship between the two should be very good. right.

But right now, Chai Yuanwai doesn't seem to like Xu Shi, on the contrary, he has some resistance and disgust.

What a strange thing.

Li Jingji became more and more puzzled, but he didn't ask rashly.

"This person lives forever, and the grass and trees fall in autumn. He obviously still has so many things he wants to do, so how can he end his life so happily?"

Chai Yuanwai leaned on the bed rail and laughed at himself.

"Uncle Chai, is your illness really so serious? What exactly is it?"

Li Jingji couldn't help asking.

"In terminal illness, there is no cure."

Chai Yuanwai raised his head and glanced out the window, avoiding talking about what kind of serious illness he was suffering from.
