Chapter 33 Entering Beijing

The day before Shen Minggong entered the ground, Wu Zhaorong summoned the Shen family brothers and sisters and Shen Chong to the hall, saying that he had something to say.

"Into Beijing?" After listening to Wu Zhaorong's words, Shen Yueran frowned.

"Yes, when I entered Beijing, my father-in-law said so before he died." Wu Zhaorong said.

"Why did you want to enter Beijing?" Shen Yueran was puzzled.

Wenchi lives in the northwest, Bianjing lives in the Central Plains, the two places are thousands of miles apart, the road is far away, not to mention, she has never heard that the Shen family has relatives in the capital, how can she enter Beijing?

Wu Zhaorong said, "The Shen family has lived in Bianjing for generations, and only moved from Bianjing to Wenchi eight years ago, so my father-in-law hopes to return to his roots and be buried in Bianjing soil. ”

Shen Yueran was silent.

Eight years ago, before she crossed over, she knew nothing......

"That's what Daddy said? Why didn't Daddy tell me? Shen Rihui said curiously.

It's impossible for Daddy not to explain such a big matter to him, the eldest son.

"Of course!" Wu Zhaorong rolled his eyes, "Can you predict when your father-in-law will close his eyes?" My father-in-law said he would go, who would have thought that he would go? He couldn't get up in one breath, and I was the only one by my side at the time, so I could only convey it. ”

Shen Rihui shook his head, "But ......"

"But what?" Wu Zhaorong frowned angrily, "I kindly conveyed my father-in-law's last words, fulfilled my filial piety for you, and let his old man settle in the ground, but you don't know what Ande is thinking, asking questions and asking questions, suspicious and suspicious." ”

Shen Rihui had a bitter face, "The lady's words are bad, what can I think, I'm just ......"

Wu Zhaorong splashed, "Just what?" Did I, Wu Zhaorong, covet something from your Shen family, or did I get some benefits from your Shen family, so that I could arouse such ill-intentioned suspicions from you? If you don't want to fulfill this filial piety, don't be tired when you look back, me and Chong'er will be haunted by the soul of my father-in-law! ”

Shen Zheng on the side heard that Wu Zhaorong said terriblely, and cried "wow".

Shen Yueran hurriedly pulled him over and persuaded him softly.

Shen Rihui straightened his face, "The more the lady talks, the more ridiculous it becomes!" I'm not suspicious of you, but I can't figure out why Daddy explained so much before he died! After the Shen family settled in Wenchi, my father has always been cautious in his words and deeds, and he didn't dare to stand out in front of people, and he never mentioned returning to Beijing. ”

"What's so hard to accept?" Wu Zhaorong was displeased, "My father-in-law has never mentioned returning to Beijing, not because he doesn't want to return to Beijing, but because he thinks the time is not right." When he was dying, he naturally didn't think about it so much, he just hoped that he could return to his roots and let his bones return to his hometown and be buried with his own people. So reasonable, which tendon are you stuck on? ”

Shen Rihui muttered, "The words are good......

He glanced at Shen Zhong and lowered his voice, "But you don't know what happened to the Shen family back then?" Isn't the Shen family living in seclusion in the northwest for so many years just to be able to live in peace? Now that he has rushed back to Beijing, will he once again arouse the jealousy of others and sue the wicked? Moreover, your mother's family is also in the capital, what should you do if you are involved in the prison and your father-in-law? ”

Shen Rihui said all his worries.

Wu Zhaorong was confident, "No! To tell you the truth, I have already asked people to contact my mother's family. A while ago, Mei Changsheng's family moved to the capital, and I asked him to bring a letter. didn't think about it, but this time I really received a handwritten reply from my mother. Well, you see. ”

As she spoke, she took out a piece of paper from her arms and handed it to Shen Rihui.

Shen Rihui took the letterhead with both hands and looked at it carefully.

"Sure enough, it's a handwritten letter from my mother-in-law." Shen Rihui said.

Wu Zhaorong pointed to the letterhead and said, "You see that this pen is not as powerful as before, which means that the mother's bones are not as strong as before. My mother and daughter have been separated for eight years, and now that the rumors have passed, the old affairs of the Shen family have long been forgotten. You can stay in front of your father-in-law's bed to see him off, but what about me, I don't even know if my mother is thin or fat, in case my mother kisses her one day, she will ............"

Wu Zhaorong was halfway through his words, tears rippled, and Shen Yueran looked at the letterhead.

Shen Rihui looked guilty, he wanted to appease but didn't know what to say, but he kept saying, "Don't be sad, don't be sad, don't be sad." ”

Shen Yueran hurriedly skimmed the content of the letter, and couldn't help asking, "Tongwen only saw his aunt and wife thinking about her daughter, and I never saw her mention returning to Beijing, why did the rumor say that it had passed?" ”

Although she didn't quite understand what Shen Rihui's "old things of the Shen family" meant, she could deduce that it was definitely not a good thing.

Wu Zhaorong was poignant, "Since my mother is willing to reply to the letter, it means that the rumor must have passed." Otherwise, she wouldn't have left a handwriting and let people catch the handle. ”

She looked at Shen Rihui and said softly, "Brother Hui, I took out my mother's letter just to reassure you, don't worry about the old things of the Shen family all day long." Zhaorong marries a chicken and follows the chicken, and has long been accustomed to the days of Wenchi, and now my personal homesickness is nothing, mainly because of his father-in-law's dying wish, and death is great. ”

Shen Rihui hesitated.

He is not good at poetry and books by nature, has no long skills, has a soft temperament, and has no ambitions. When he was young, he always followed Shen Minggong, and Shen Minggong told him to do whatever he wanted. Later, he married a wife and had children, Wu Zhaorong had a strong temperament and was shrewd, so he was happy to sit back and enjoy his success. As long as he goes out to work every day, Wu Zhaorong has the final say on all the big and small things at home.

For him, as long as he eats and drinks enough every day, as long as he is with his family, he can live a small life in peace.

Now, however, he needed an idea.

He pondered for a moment and looked at Shen Yueran.

"Yue'er, what do you say?"

Shen Yueran was silent.

Shen Minggong's old face appeared in front of him again.

When he was alive, she couldn't understand his painstaking efforts.

After his death, she may be able to fulfill her filial piety on behalf of the real Shen Yueran.

She made up her mind, her eyes shining, and she said clearly, "Enter Beijing." ”

Shen Rihui was silent, and Wu Zhaorong was overjoyed.

Shen Yueran continued, "Sister-in-law is right this time, death is great, since it is my father's deathbed wish, we only have everything." The round-trip trip took more than a month, and it was inevitably tiring along the way, but I had a lot of money on hand, and the expenses on the road should not be a problem. ”

"Yue'er, you should know that my brother is not worried about such a thing as Lu Tuyinzi, I just-" Shen Rihui didn't say any further.

Shen Yueran understood that he was referring to "the old affairs of the Shen family", and only because she was worried that Shen Zhong would have no way to speak, so she swallowed and vomited.

Shen Yueran thought for a while and said, "Yue'er understands my brother's worries, but we are just going to Beijing to bury our father, and we strive to keep a low profile in everything and not attract the attention of others." ”

"Yes, Brother Hui." Wu Zhaorong said repeatedly, "As long as we keep a low profile, there will be no mistakes." This time Lian Yue'er is on my side, what are you still worried about. ”

At this time, Shen Chong, who was playing on the side, finally heard what the adults were saying, he ran to Shen Rihui and begged, "Daddy, let's go to Beijing, I heard that the capital is fun, there are a lot of delicious and fun things." ”

Shen Rihui finally couldn't resist it, nodded and said, "Okay, enter Beijing." ”
