Shen Minggong stroked her hair bun and said in a dumb voice, "Yue'er, don't cry." You are the youngest daughter of the Shen family, you should have been clothed and fed, and you should be under your knees, but because your father was loyal, you went to the bitter cold land in the northwest with the Shen family at a young age. So, if you are angry in your heart and angry with your father, I won't blame you. ”

"I-" Shen Yueran's eyes were hazy with tears, how could she be angry with him?

Shen Minggong gasped and continued, "You have been smart and clever since you were a child, you can understand piano, chess, calligraphy and painting at a point, and you are not old enough to be young, and there is an endless stream of people who come to propose marriage. You have seen a lot of personable princes and nobles since you were a child, and your vision is quite high, and after you live in Wenchi, it is reasonable to look down on those people.

Your sister-in-law is greedy for money and profit, and has a domineering temperament, and has always regarded your family affairs as a transaction, because of the marriage, she has given you a lot of face. Rihui is afraid of inside, everything is only thinking about and mud, I, who is a father, pretend to be deaf and dumb, all grievances, all grievances, all by you alone. Therefore, you vowed not to marry, others were puzzled, but my father knew that it was my Yue'er who was angry and angry.

Yue'er is the pride of the Shen family, the smartest and most beautiful woman my father has ever seen, even if there is a marriage order from the imperial court now, my father never thinks that Yue'er will not be able to get married. Daddy knows that as long as Yue'er opens her mouth and wants to marry, many sons and sons will have to wait in line there, who will dare to laugh at our Wenchi 'old girl' at that time? ”

Shen Yueran's tears broke the embankment again, and she cried bitterly, "Yue'er is not as good as her father said, it is Yue'er who is selfish, and Yue'er is not filial......"

Shen Minggong tightened the hand of Shen Yueran, who was holding tightly, and raised his neck vigorously, "But Yue'er, why are you willing to marry that Zhang Wenxing as a concubine?" ”

Shen Yueran was stunned.

Is she willing to marry Zhang Wenxing as a concubine?

Bah!

Says who?!

Shen Minggong's eyes were desolate, "Is it because of the miserable days over the years?" Is it because of the white-eyed bullying that has been received over the years? Is it because of the 100 taels of silver? Yue'er, you swear not to marry, and your father is not annoyed, because my father knows that the daughter of my Shen family should be rather broken than broken, but why are you willing to marry that Zhang Wenxing?! Would you like to be a concubine?! Is it all because of his seven-grade official position? ”

Shen Minggong couldn't lift it in one breath, rolled his eyes and coughed.

Shen Yueran panicked, hurriedly picked up Shun's back, and explained repeatedly, "Daddy, don't be annoyed, don't be anxious, this matter must be a misunderstanding, Yue'er will never marry Zhang Wenxing as a concubine." ”

At this time, there was a heavy and panicked footsteps outside the door, and then Shen Rihui's repeated questions.

"What's wrong with Daddy? How can you fall? Why can't you fall once? What did Lang Zhong say? He was crying, and there was eagerness in his voice.

"I, I—" Wu Zhaorong hesitated.

Shen Minggong heard the movement and waved his hand, he let go of the hand holding Shen Yueran, pointed at her and said, "Yue'er, remember what you said to your father, the Shen family has been arrogant for generations, and the daughter of the Shen family cannot be a concubine, not a concubine." You go and call Rihui, Daddy still has something to explain to him. ”

With that, he lay down again, his eyes wide open, looked at the beams, and exhaled and inhaled vigorously.

Shen Yueran wiped her tears, tidied up Shen Minggong's clothes, and hung her head to go out.

******

Shen Yueran looked out the window in a daze, and the corners of her clothes in her hands were about to twist into pieces.

After five years, Shen Minggong and what she said together are not as many as they just said.

She once thought that it must have been some misunderstanding or unhappiness between the real Shen Yueran and his father and daughter that made his attitude towards her so cold.

She also once thought that it must be what she has done in the past few years that chills him, so that he is angry and doesn't care about her.

She also thought that maybe Shen Minggong was a silent and indifferent father by nature.

However, what she never expected was that Shen Minggong's indifference to her was all because of his understanding of her, and even his approval.

He didn't want her to wronged herself and marry hastily, he didn't want her to bow to the world, and he didn't want her to bow to the powerful Wu Zhaorong!

He once said that the Shen family was sorry for the Wu family, so he turned a blind eye to Wu Zhaorong's prestige, but he would never agree with the Shen family's daughter's family affairs.

In his own way - silent - he silently supported his daughter.

Father, Yu Ziqiang, Shen Minggong......

Father's love is like a mountain, and father's love is often difficult to understand.

She only understands now, will it be too late?

Shen Yueran wept again.

At this time, Wu Zhaorong walked over in a curtled manner, expecting Ai Ai, "What did the father-in-law say?" ”

Shen Yueran raised her eyes to look at her.

Wu Zhaorong's eyes were red and swollen, and his expression was cautious.

She snorted coldly and watched Wu Zhaorong's eyes widen and widen, "What? Weak-hearted and scared? Afraid that the ugly things you've done will be revealed? Be careful that God will seal your mouth sooner or later, so that you can no longer steal food and talk nonsense! ”

She is willing to marry Zhang Wenxing as a concubine, this nonsense, apart from this sister-in-law who is bent on driving her out of the Shen family, who else can make it up? !

Wu Zhaorong couldn't help but shrink back, his face was like white paper, and cold sweat instantly soaked his forehead.

After a while, she finally came back to her senses, replied weakly, "sick", and then ran to the door of the north room, stretched out her ears and stuck to the curtain.

After a while, Shen Rihui walked out of the room.

"Brother, how is Daddy?" Shen Yueran rushed forward with an arrow step and asked urgently.

Shen Rihui didn't answer, and said to Wu Zhaorong dejectedly, "Daddy let you in." ”

"Me?" Wu Zhaorong's eyes were horrified.

"Daddy said he had something to say to you."

Shen Rihui said, pushed Wu Zhaorong into the north room, and closed the curtain.

"Brother, what's wrong with Daddy?" Shen Yueran was still thinking about Shen Minggong, "Do you need to invite another Lang Zhong to take a look?" ”

Shen Rihui waved his hand, walked to the threshold and sat down, stretched out his hand to hug Shen Chong, who had returned from the school, and cried bitterly.

"No need, no need, Daddy is afraid that it really won't work, Daddy don't worry, the child must teach the heavy child ......"

Shen Chong cried "grandfather" and "grandfather", and Shen Yueran hid her face and sobbed.

After a while, Shen Yueran asked Wu Zhaorong to go in and had a cup of tea, it was time to come out, she couldn't help but look into the room, through the door curtain, only to see Wu Zhaorong kneeling in front of Shen Minggong's bed, it seemed that he was still talking to Shen Minggong, but she couldn't hear any movement.

She hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether to go in or not, when Wu Zhaorong suddenly let out a scream.

"Father-in-law, what do you say, what do you say! Are these your last words? Is this your final confession to Sunlight? ”

Shen Yueran was shocked, rushed into the north room, and threw herself at Shen Minggong on the bed, only to see that Shen Minggong's eyes were closed, and he had long lost a trace of breath.

Shen Rihui pulled Shen Zhong and then rushed over, and also threw himself on the bed, wailing again and again, "Daddy, daddy, wake up, wake up, you can't just leave, daddy, daddy......"

"Grandfather, grandfather, grandfather......" Shen Chong was eight years old when he had already understood life and death, and he cried earth-shatteringly.

Shen Yueran closed her eyes in despair.

Her father, went to ......
