Extra Story: Mi Hua (Contemporary Chapter)

The spring rain is pattering, making it difficult to sleep peacefully.

Mi Hua has been tossing and turning since the second half of the night, and only squinted for a while before dawn.

She slept lightly and had many nightmares, but she woke up from the light dream in half an hour.

"What time is it?"

The maidservant who kept watch inside said, "If you go back to Madam, it's just past Chen."

"Is it only Chen Shi?"

Hearing the maid's address, Mi Hua belatedly remembered that she stayed in the Han Mansion last night, so it should be considered her home.

The servant girl asked, "Madam, do you want to get up now?"

Mi Hua said, "Yeah."

The serving maids filed in, helped Mihua wash her face and hair, and massaged her delicately to relieve her headache.

"Madam hasn't been sleeping very well recently, may I invite the doctor of the family to come and have a look?"

Mi Hua propped her elbows on the dressing table, resting her forehead on a doze for a while, to relax her tired spirit.

"No need, it's a problem that happens every year, it will be fine after a few days."

Mi Hua is currently working in Beijing, staying in her mansion most of the time, and staying in Han Mansion for a small part of the time.

Although there are few residents, the courtyard has all the necessary configurations, and the popularity is strong, without the slightest hint of coldness.

The dexterous maid gave her a looser bun than usual, so as not to tire her scalp, and her makeup was much more plain than usual.

Looking at the phoenix eyes of the person in the mirror, she was slightly surprised, "Why are you so clean today?"

If I remember correctly, this servant girl is best at all kinds of ladies' makeup that is popular in the capital, one by one is graceful and luxurious.

Mi Hua sometimes dislikes too much makeup, even if she doesn't look old, she is only in her early thirties, but the makeup is too thick.

Today is strange.

The servant girl said, "Yesterday, the master told me that my wife likes to be more clean these days."

Mi Hua was stunned for a moment, and smiled, "As expected of Han Wenbin, who was famous in his early years, he is indeed careful in his actions."

Their success is not unreasonable, and the clues can be seen every bit of life.

Every year when these days come, Mi Hua's mood becomes very depressed, especially on this day, because it is the death day of her first husband.

After dressing up, looking at the woman in the mirror who was at most twenty-seven or eighty-eight, Mi Hua felt a little better.

"Madam, Mr. Saburo heard that Madam is here, so he came here to pay his respects."

Mi Hua said, "Let him come."

When she came to the main hall of the main courtyard, that boyish boy who seemed immature and deceitful was waiting for her.

"My son greets his mother."

Mi Hua said, "Get up, the academy is closed today?"

Han Chi got up and sat down on the seat on Mihua's right side, and said seriously, "The academy is still in class today."

Mi Hua frowned and said, "Class?"

This kid is skipping class?

Probably not, Han Chi is a very well-behaved child, almost so well-behaved that he has no idea of ​​his own.

How could a well-behaved baby do such a "rebellious" thing as skipping classes?

Don't be afraid of being beaten violently by his father with a cane.

Han Chi said, "Father invited half-day classes for his son a few days ago, saying that he was with mother."

Mi Hua: "..."

Well, she has to admit that there is indeed something worthy of praise for those who have been able to rise from the troubled times to the present.

"So, Chi'er will accompany her mother to the Shangfo Temple in the suburbs of Beijing today."

Shangfo Temple was originally a temple in Hejian County, but later His Majesty allocated funds to build a temple in the suburbs of Beijing. I heard that the old monk in the temple and His Majesty have given advice. Although His Majesty does not believe in Buddhism, he has curbed the development of Buddhism several times, and his attitude is more Taoist, but this has not affected the incense of the Buddhist temple. Mi Hua also donated money for sesame oil in this temple, held several water and land pujas, and prayed for the dead.

Today is a prosperous and peaceful world, but there are always places that cannot be scrupled, and you still need to be careful when walking outside.

Han Chi brought enough guards and went all the way from the inner city to the Buddhist temple on the outskirts of Beijing without any trouble.

_(:3)∠)_

No, he's in trouble.

Han Chi, as the only child still raised by Han Yu's side, is truly "isolated and helpless".

He has no siblings to share the fire with him. He could only bite the bullet when the parents thought of teaching and testing. During the two hour journey, Mi Hua never stopped asking.

At first, Han Chi was able to answer the questions fluently, but as he got further behind, he became more and more anxious, and his young and immature face was flushed with embarrassment.

It's a shame (πwπ)

Mi Hua smiled and said, "You are still young, this level is already something to be proud of."

Han Chi faltered and said, "Mother comforts son, son knows."

He found that the whole family seemed to be the only scumbag in his studies.

Whether it is the first brother Han Run, or the concubine brother and concubine sister, regardless of their grades in Jinlin Academy, dozens of people in the class are among the top three. Han Chi was different. He hovered in the late 50s all year round. Except for his face, he had nothing inherited from his father.

Not to mention my father and now my mother.

If it were someone else with strong self-esteem, they would have lost their minds in a hurry, but Han Chi was still slow.

Han Yu didn't force him like other parents, or he was too busy with work to be strict with his son.

If the son does not become a dude, it is the greatest contribution to the family.

Mi Hua said, "It's also an advantage to look good."

Han Chi: "???"

Mi Hua said, "If you have more knowledge, relying on this face and your family background, it is enough to be a celebrity."

Han Chi: "..."

He couldn't tell whether his mother's words were a compliment or a slander.

Today is not a big festival, but there are still many tourists in Shangfo Temple, and there are many horses and horses outside the temple.

Han Chi saw a familiar carriage in the parking place, so he paused.

Mi Hua looked around and found that the family emblem on the carriage looked familiar.

Isn't this the family emblem of the family where Han Yu's ex-wife remarried?

"Mother?"

Mi Hua also knew the kindness and resentment between Han Yu and his ex-wife, so she frowned slightly, but seeing Han Chi's pitiful rabbit appearance, her heart softened a little.

"Let's go, don't waste the time."

I was really afraid that something would happen, just entering the main hall of the Buddhist temple, I saw Han Yu's ex-wife leading a strange little lady.

The four of them looked at each other in blank dismay.

Mi Hua didn't even move her eyes, she just walked over.

Han Chi bit the bullet and saluted Tao Shi.

Dow accepted it with a stiff face, but his eyes were fixed on Mi Hua's face, and the veil was tightly clenched in his hands.

She snorted coldly, ignored Han Chi, and was about to lead the strange little lady around.

Mi Hua stretched out her hand abruptly, blocking her way.

"What are you doing?"

Tao Shi was so angry that his eyes were about to spit fire.

Times have changed, and now she values ​​other things more than what she once held tightly to.

Without the power and status brought by Han Yu, without the protection and aura of the Tao family, she is just a weak and helpless woman.

Now, another Mihua jumped out and snatched everything she didn't want.

Mi Hua was able to open the heavy and golden hollowed-out gold fan in her hand, and the fan pendant was even more precious and fine jade.

She pinched her fan to half cover her pretty face.

"Chi'er saluted you."

Tao Shi sneered, "So what? He is the flesh and blood that crawled out of my belly, he should salute, and you don't care if I take it or not."

She is Han Yu's original partner, and Mi Hua is only the third married stepwife, why—she also wants to stop and salute herself?

Unexpectedly, Mi Hua smiled and said, "I am the second rank of the imperial court, and the common people are not allowed to worship the official?"

Dow:"???"

Han Chi, who was a little sad and aggrieved just now: "!!!"

Mi Hua said, "Chi'er deserves to worship you, and you should also worship me. My wife is from a famous family and is well-educated. How can you not know this truth? You have no imperial orders, no honors, and three--your mother's family is still being punished." Your Majesty condemned the traitor who ransacked the family and exterminated the family——If Chi'er ignored you, I would not recognize Madam. Now that I have recognized Madam's identity, then the proper rules must be established."

Tao Shi's face turned pale, as if it had been covered with a layer of white ash, and the little lady behind her was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she gave a big gift first.

After a stalemate for a while, Tao Shi was unwilling, and saluted Mi Hua in an extremely humiliating manner.

"Get up. I'm going to take a bath today, and I can't show off my authority. It won't sound good if the speaker finds out that I'm attending His Majesty's place."

Tao Shi gritted his back molars, his eyes were red, he pinched the flesh of the little lady's wrist and tore her away.

Continue to stay and be bullied?

Han Chi was dumbfounded.

Mi Hua said, "She is your biological mother, so she shouldn't be treated like this, but - I can't bear the slightest grievance."

She has seen a lot of old foxes in the officialdom, which one doesn't have a twisted mind?

Would she not be able to see through the thoughts in Dow's heart?

She is just an unclear and pathetic woman, do you really think that the title of "Heli's original spouse" can overwhelm her?

Don't talk about actual actions, even thinking about it in your heart!

In the past, Mi Hua would not be like this, but today is different.

Today is the anniversary of her husband's death, and she didn't want him to see how wronged she was.

Han Chi bowed his head and remained silent.

Mi Hua lit the incense, copied Buddhist scriptures in the side hall and burned them, and an hour passed in a flash.

Before leaving the temple, Mi Hua asked the novice who cleaned the main hall.

Only then did I know that the little lady next to Tao Shi was her favorite concubine arranged for her remarried husband. In order to win her husband's heart, and to secure her position as the eldest wife, she desperately hopes that the concubine she has carefully selected can conceive a child as soon as possible. Offering incense today is also for seeking a son.

Mi Hua twitched the corners of her mouth, and couldn't help complaining, "It's understandable to pray for well-being, but what's the way to go to the temple to ask for a child?"

Han Chi was puzzled, "Why?"

Mi Hua said, "Don't you think it's ridiculous for the monks to say that the four things are all empty, and to seek a monk and bhikkhu for a child?"

Han Chi: "..."

The Buddha would cry when he heard this.

Mi Hua is very busy, but she is also better than Han Yu. She can have three days off for bathing in a month.

For Han Yu's sake, Mi Hua would also take care of Han Chi's homework and care about his life in the academy.

It was Han Chi's first contact with a woman like Mi Hua, and he soon became closer to her than his biological mother Tao Shi.

Han Chi was sent back to the Han Mansion by the steward, and the woman who squeezed Mi Hua's shoulders and beat her back said, "Mr. Sanlang is really good, with a pure nature."

Mihua said, "What do you want to say?"

The woman said with a smile, "You might as well adopt it and put it in your name, I'm sure the master will agree."

Mi Hua played with the golden fan and said with a smile, "If you do this, that Dow might vomit blood in anger."

The woman said softly, "Everyone has his own life, and this is her life."

It is also a skill to be able to forcibly make the situation of lying and winning as it is now.

Claims to be smart, but has never seen a fact clearly——

Her fate is in the hands of others from beginning to end.

It's not that others want to pinch it, but she takes the initiative to hand over her fate to others.

All honor and disgrace are tied to the family, husband, and son.

The family was wiped out, the husband left, and the son estranged.

Losing everything and still not waking up, continue to stubbornly step into another same pit.

She won't understand now, and she won't understand why she has lived her life like this in the future.

Mi Hua looked at the paintings and inscriptions on the golden fan, and said indifferently, "I just hope that there will be fewer women like this in the world."

The woman said, "With a wife as a role model, why worry about those women not being moved?"

Mi Hua sneered, "You don't understand, there are always more people who sit back and enjoy the benefits than those who do it themselves."

What about role models?

Today is still a woman.

"As long as marrying and having children is still a way out for women, women like Dow are still emerging in endlessly." Mi Hua sneered, "They will only say 'this is a woman with a good life', 'it's a pity that she is a third-married woman. , no matter how high-ranking officials and generous salaries are, they can’t enjoy it as much as they do.” Then he turned his head and taught his daughter to work hard to marry a better man, and then taught his son to work hard to study and practice martial arts, and not to be inferior to women. No one is a fool, of course I know It's much easier to marry a man in high position than it is to be a woman in high position."

The woman is puzzled.

Many years later, Han Yu asked her, who was critically ill and elderly, if she would help her spirit to be buried with her husband.

Mi Hua smiled, "It's good to be a neighbor with you, a bad old man, why bother the dead?"

Han Yu sat beside the bed and asked her, "Relieved?"

"Things that you can't think about at the age of seventeen, you should also think about it at the age of seventy-one. How can the state of mind be the same as it is now?"

Her young man lived in her heart for nearly fifty years.

Without the passionate feelings and persistent obsessions of the past, I feel that he is an old friend who has been away for a long time and has not returned.

Say "Hello" and "Treasure".

She blanked her eyes and looked at the sunlight outside the window.

Faintly, I heard a faint chuckle next to my ear.

Mi Hua smiled.

The old man, after all. (=easy to read novels)
