Joe Village
The daughter is the princess of the world, and the house of the guilty minister can be regarded as a salted fish, which is something worthy of glory. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the past, I always felt that the Shen Liu family, who couldn't raise his head in the village, really lived with his head held high, and took out all the things that the family was reluctant to eat early in the morning, and invited the neighbors to come to help with a smile.
There is a long morning calculation Hua Jingwan and Gao Xuan came back today, no need to invite, consciously brought some good things that the family is usually reluctant to eat, and they are also among the people who help.
Family changes, from heaven to hell all of a sudden, there are many people Shen Cheng still doesn't say much, only knows how to laugh from the heart; Xiao Lianhua was originally a young lady from a big family, and she didn't know anything when she first arrived at the Shen family, these years, all the way through the ups and downs, she has changed from the young lady who came to the beginning of her clothes to reach out for food to open her mouth into a shrewd and capable housewife, and is the right-hand man of Shen Liu's family.
Shen Jingyu is the best to be lively, she puts on the new clothes that are pressed at the bottom of the coat box and is usually reluctant to wear, showing flowers and branches, shuttling through the crowd like a little butterfly, making jokes or two from time to time, adding a bit of fun to the helpers.
Shen Bo was the most calm in the Shen family, and after getting up, he walked around the courtyard leisurely as usual, and after greeting the people who came, he went to the study to read.
With Xiao Lianhua as the host, and the respected lieutenant as the foil, Shen Liu's affairs to welcome his daughter and son-in-law were roughly arranged, and he was busy and waited for his daughter and son-in-law to sit leisurely under the willow tree in front of the house while eating pumpkin seeds.
In the past, the people in the village who were not close to her passed by the house, and she greeted them warmly, and chatted with them by the way, saying that her daughter and the prince were coming back today, and asked them not to forget to come to the house in the evening to have a light meal to liven up.
"Mrs. Shen! It seems that you will also be moving to Qiaoqi County soon. ”
"The second young lady is the princess, that's natural!"
The Shen family is no longer the Shen family a few days ago, and the people in the village have picked up some nice words to say, and the Shen Liu family is like drinking a cup of sweet honey water when they hear these flattering words. But I also know that it is disgraceful to stain my daughter's light.
"As long as my daughter is doing well! People are old, as the old saying goes, the fallen leaves return to the roots, our lord is reluctant to Qiao Village, and even more reluctant to our Shen family's old house. So, if you think about it, we won't move to George County. ”
“,,,,”
The sun was in the west, the sky was gradually getting dark, and the people who helped couldn't wait, so they went home one after another, and the empty mansion was quiet again, looking at this scene, Shen Liu couldn't help but be secretly anxious.
Xiao Lianhua walked out of the door with her sleeve tube, glanced at the direction in front of the house, saw no movement, frowned and said, "Mother!" It's this hour, why haven't Wan Wan and the prince been yet? The people are gone, and the food is cold! ”
No one is more anxious than Shen Liu, but the daughter-in-law said this, as a housewife, she didn't dare to show a little.
The dry laughter covered up the anxiety in her heart, "It's a long way, maybe it's late, it's normal, it's normal, wait!" ”
When the family was waiting for the child, looking at the table full of sumptuous dishes, Shen Liu's most needed comfort. But the waiting time was too long, the moment of worrying about her heart had passed, the family members sitting at the table were depressed, no one was in the mood to comfort her, and Shen Jingyu, who was less ignorant, was so hungry that she fell asleep on the table.
At this point, Shen Bo knew that he couldn't wait like this anymore.
Qiang cheered up, took the chopsticks in his hand, and shouted to Shen Jingyu: "Yu'er! When hungry, we eat first. ”
Hearing the word 'eat' in her sleep, a bright light above her head, Shen Jingyu raised her head in confusion, looked at the table full of good dishes, and drifted away with the wind in an instant, wiped the saliva at the corner of her mouth, and said happily: "Dad!" Finally ready to eat? ”
"Eat, eat, eat! No waiting! ”
Looking at Shen Jingyu, who was gobbling up, his wife, son, and daughter-in-law who were silent and slow to move his chopsticks, and Shen Bo, who was holding a chopstick dish and lightly putting it in his mouth, had mixed feelings in his heart.
At this time, if the daughter-in-law does not come back, maybe something will happen to the daughter!
With this thought, the worry and fear will come like a tide, but he, like Shen Liu, only hides his worry and fear in the bottom of his heart.
"City! Flowers! Tomorrow I have to get up early to go to the field, eat quickly! Eat a good rest! ”
After taking a sip of soju, he was even more irritable, stood up on the table, and said to Shen Liu: "I ate too much at noon, and I was overly hungry, I have no appetite, so I will eat again when I am hungry for a while." ”
After speaking, he fled to the door, except for Shen Yujing, who was feasting, the rest of the people's eyes followed him.
Shen Bo disappeared in front of the door, and Shen Liu forced a smile and beckoned everyone to eat.
。。。。
Three days later, in the middle of the night, when the rain cleared, there was a soft knock on the door.
Although it was very light, Shen Liu, who couldn't sleep well for a few days, still heard it clearly.
That's a knock on the door!
"Sir! It must be Wan Wan and the prince who are back! ”
Leaving these words, Shen Liu put on his clothes, opened the door, and trotted to the door of the house.
Because she came and there was silence in front of the door, she suddenly wondered if she was overly worried about her daughter, hallucinating, or hearing wrong.
Hesitate, reach out and pull the latch.
The movement was so light that she seemed to startle the people outside the door, and the latch slanted down, and she hesitated for a moment, and opened the two doors abruptly.
Under the moonlight, the daughter dressed in white stood outside the door with a playful smile.
Shen Liu was overjoyed, but suddenly became nervous, seeing her daughter, but not her son-in-law, the surprise in her heart was so great that only she knew it.
"Wan ...... Why don't you see the son? ”
I haven't seen her for a few days, and as soon as my mother opened her mouth, she asked Shizi, Hua Jingwan, who was forced to smile, was full of grievances all of a sudden, and she couldn't hide her sadness anymore.
She really wanted to throw herself into Shen Liu's arms at this moment and cry happily.
"Mother! The son is dead, so I'm going home! ”
Hua Jingwan was surprised by this hatred of Gao Xuan's words, but these words were really spoken.
But to be clear, I just blurted it out, and I can't find a reason to go home alone.
"What nonsense?" Shen Liu's eyes were dark, and the sky was spinning, but he still smiled and pulled Hua Jingwan into the door.
In the dead of night, afraid that the conversation would drift away with the wind, and being listened to by the neighbor next door, she didn't say anything more, took Hua Jingwan's hand and walked to the main hall with a high foot and a low foot.
"Wanwan! Why didn't the prince come back with you? ”
Under the dim light of the main hall, no matter how good Hua Jingwan's mental quality is, it is a little unnatural.
The night four days ago, in a conversation with Gao Xuan, she made a huge decision.
Don't go back to the palace again!
Regardless of whether Gao Xuan and Liu Ruyan are a couple or not, it is a fact that Gao Xuan doesn't like her, so it is the best choice for her to quit.
deliberately left an embroidered shoe on the edge of the cliff, creating the illusion of falling under the cliff, and quietly went to Qiao County overnight.
wandered around Qiao County for two days, and estimated that if Gao Xuan was looking for her to the Shen family's mansion, she should go back before coming back.
