Chapter 814 Mrs. Sheng’s care

Let's not talk about it for the moment. Under the watchful eye of Mrs. Sheng, Li Zhan finished his dinner. When he was about seventy full, he stopped with the bamboo chopsticks, put down the porridge bowl, and wiped the corners of his mouth.

Mrs. Sheng was a little surprised when she saw this. Looking at Li Zhan, who acted very naturally and gracefully in front of her, she couldn't help but wonder if this child was a young man from a famous family. Otherwise, how could he have such flawless dining etiquette?

"I see that you took the initiative to stop eating. It seems that you also know some health-preserving methods!"

Li Zhan didn't hide anything, nodded and said.

"My grandson studies a lot. He reads a little bit of everything. I have read in medical books that it is said that you should not overeat if you haven't eaten for a long time, so you have to leave a three-point margin. This is similar to being a human being!"

Mrs. Sheng's eyes were even more astonished. Li Zhan was only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he was so mature, sophisticated, and knowledgeable about the world. He was really a talented person. It was impossible to say that he would be able to fulfill the wishes of his father and ancestors in the future. , being the lintel of the Li family's front door is not in vain for her sister who has toiled all her life underground and has a successor.

"You kid is also extremely smart, but you will know in the future that being too sharp is not a good thing!"

Mrs. Sheng sincerely regarded Li Zhan as her own child, so she taught her earnestly that literati should be modest and prudent, and should not show their sharpness, otherwise they would be jealous of villains and easily cause unreasonable disasters.

Li Zhan was stunned. He naturally understood this truth, but he did not expect that Mrs. Sheng would now teach him these principles of life. He felt warm in his heart and responded with a smile.

"Thank you grandma for your teaching. My grandson will remember it!"

Seeing that Li Zhan was not bored at all, Mrs. Sheng obviously took her words to heart. She even liked Li Zhan a little. Seeing that Li Zhan looked a little tired, she pretended to be tired and said.

"I'm old, I like to chatter a few words. Just don't bother me. I'm tired too, so I'll be here today. Mother Fang has already decorated a room for you. It's in my Shou'an Hall. You have a good rest tonight. Wait, our grandparents and grandchildren will talk carefully tomorrow!"

"My grandson won't disturb grandma's rest. I'll say hello to grandma tomorrow!"

Li Zhan bowed respectfully to Mrs. Sheng, then left the room with Fang's mother and walked towards his bedroom.

Li Zhan watched Fang's mother leave, then opened the door and walked into his bedroom in the Sheng family.

Li Zhan walked into the bed and looked at the bedding on it. They were all fine silk quilts. The bedding on this bed was more valuable than all his belongings. Sure enough, in this ancient world, being an official was the most comfortable. .

Li Zhan took off his old clothes, folded them carefully without throwing them away, and got into the silk quilt. Feeling the long-lost comfort and warmth, he let out a sigh of contentment, and the decision he had already made in his heart became even more intense. After being determined, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Li Zhan had not had a good rest for several days. Last night, because his hut was broken by the cold wind, he was forced to recite a poem "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind" by Du Fu in the cold winter, which was arty for a time. , it was indeed "windy and wet", and he almost didn't freeze. He walked for a whole day the next day, and he didn't get any water. He was exhausted, so when Li Zhan woke up the next day, it was already bright. It's already past the halfway mark, which is equivalent to eight or nine o'clock now.

Li Zhan stood up quickly and looked at the new clothes on the table in the bedroom. He knew that Mrs. Sheng had ordered them to be prepared, so he picked them up and put them on without being polite. He was already under someone else's care, so why bother to act arrogant? Just remember that others are kind to you and repay them in the future.

This is a white brocade robe. Fang's mother estimated Li Zhan's figure and size very accurately. After Li Zhan put it on, he found that it fit perfectly. He couldn't help but admire Fang's mother's eyesight. This is his ability. He can tell his own size at a glance. The size is estimated to be close to ten. If a person has the ability, he will be better than others regardless of his status. No wonder he can gain the reliance and trust of Mrs. Sheng.

"I've seen my grandma! My grandson is so sleepy that my grandma is laughing!"

Li Zhan looked at Mrs. Sheng who was already waiting for him at the table and apologized awkwardly. After all, he got up late on the first day and asked the elderly to wait. It was somewhat inappropriate.

Mrs. Sheng smiled kindly and didn't mind. She waved her right hand and said with a loving look on her face.

"It's a blessing to be able to sleep. At my age, even sleeping is no longer good when you get older. You are at the age where you are addicted to sleep and grow stronger, so I didn't let Mama Fang disturb you!"

A warm current flowed through Li Zhan's heart. He was very grateful to Old Mrs. Sheng for her reasonableness, thoughtfulness and care, and he felt a little closer to the old lady.

"Sit down quickly and have breakfast. I'll have someone take you around the mansion. Your mission today is to have a good rest and get to know the people in the mansion. We'll talk about other things in two days!"

Li Zhan did not object to Old Mrs. Sheng's arrangement. He would make peace with it as it came. He would do whatever others arranged. Anyway, with Old Mrs. Sheng's kindness, she would definitely have good arrangements for him. All he had to do was accept the kindness. In the future, I will just repay the old man with double the principal and interest.

Although Li Zhan has changed his name to Mrs. Sheng as grandmother, after all, they have only known her for a short time, and deep down in his heart, he still treats her as a close elder, so he is so polite and seems a bit unfamiliar. Only after getting along for a long time will he treat Sheng. The old lady is truly a grandmother.

Old Mrs. Sheng also knows this very well. She has lived to this age and has never seen any big storms. Her grasp of people's hearts is far better than that of young people, so she does not force Li Zhan to get close to her. She just keeps being nice to Li Zhan. This That's the best way to get closer.

Li Zhan sat down, and there were several bowls of porridge and a few side dishes on the table. Compared with last night, there was not much difference, but there were a few more cooked chickens and a steamed seabass, which allowed Li Zhan to replenish his appetite. The body is not too greasy. It is obviously made by Mrs. Sheng specially asked by the kitchen, hiding her love and concern for Li Zhan.

After Mrs. Sheng moved her chopsticks, Li Zhan showed no courtesy and started to enjoy the breakfast directly. The food was very sweet, which made Mrs. Sheng have a big appetite. She took two more bites and felt a little full before giving up. .

Old Mrs. Sheng looked at Li Zhan who was enjoying the meal and smiled brightly. She glanced at Fang's mother who was standing next to her, nodded and expressed her love for Li Zhan. This child was not pretentious and was very frank and generous, which made these few The old man, who had felt somewhat lonely in his youth, was very relieved.

After all, Old Mrs. Sheng is not Sheng Hong's biological mother. Although Sheng Hong is not unfilial, it is still difficult for the two to get close to each other. There is some separation between them, and the old lady is older. Sheng Hong The children have never been raised in front of the old lady. They are not surrounded by children and grandchildren, so it is inevitable that they will be a little boring. The arrival of Li Zhan obviously makes up for this gap.
