CHAPTER XV
Although Shen Ruzhuo really wanted to go home, Shen Ruyu couldn't just take her sister, who had become a younger brother, home.
She is seventeen years old this year, and Ruzhuo's current body is about fourteen years old, both of which are extremely sensitive to heterosexual relationships, if Shen Ruyu takes him back, according to Li Cong's character, she doesn't guarantee that he will do anything, and this kind of behavior obviously destroys the balance that Shen Nanfeng has been trying to maintain, and the slightest bad will cause a big earthquake, she knows that this is her sister, but she can't preach the world for her innocence, right?
Moreover, the Shen family may not be able to tolerate him now.
What does Shen Ruyu want to say?
Sue Shen Nanfeng, this is her real daughter? Although she is now in the body of a civilian teenager?
And the second daughter who crawled out of her belly, she worked so hard to raise such a big second daughter, and the soul in it belonged to the dead queen?
Shen Ruyu didn't know if Shen Nanfeng would believe it, or would think they were crazy.
In fact, her trust in Shen Nanfeng may not be as good as her trust in Cui Wenjun.
Shen Ruyu believes in this sentence - [An unreliable ally is sometimes more dangerous than an enemy with a clear attitude. ใ
She didn't really understand those who could quickly enter the state after crossing over, even if she opened her eyes for the first time in her life and saw Shen Nanfeng, it was difficult for her to regard her as her mother.
Maybe it has a relationship with her age - she was twenty years old when she crossed over, and Shen Nanfeng was only nineteen years old when she "gave birth" to her.
What's more, before the crossing, she had her own parents, they were not famous like the Luohe Shen family, they were just ordinary people, but they gave birth to her and raised her, Shen Ruyu's current character, personality, dignity, morality, and three views all come from their education and companionship, not Shen Nanfeng.
They gave her all their love.
It's not something that can be changed by crossing over and changing her body, unless she completely refreshes her memories once, or recondenses her soul once.
And inadvertently, Shen Nanfeng often reveals a certain โกโก and tough attitude, and takes it for granted that Shen Ruyu should obey unconditionally, which is of course a very disgusting attitude for Shen Ruyu, who has grown up to the age of being able to make her own choices in her previous life, her parents will discuss with her, why should Shen Nanfeng completely ignore her wishes, make decisions for her, and ask her to follow the path she arranged without complaints?
Shen Ruyu once heard a small story.
Saying that a mother's child accidentally drowned, she was grief-stricken, but she also had to face state prosecution because she did not take good care of her child, the mother was very angry and said This is my child, what does it have to do with you when he dies? He was found guilty.
It's the biological and social nature of human beings.
Biologically, the child is the continuation of his parents, but socially, he should also be an independent person.
Even in modern times, there are still many parents who believe that their children are their own property and their vassals, and because they are parents, they can wantonly insult their children's personality and dignity and ignore their will and freedom.
It's like children don't need to have their own will, their own personality, their own dignity, as long as they obediently listen to their parents.
Not to mention in ancient times.
Even though the ancient times when women were in power were quite moderate in some respects, the ideas and institutions of feudal patriarchy were still like shackles.
A time-traveler predecessor has long said - "There is no way, in this era, if you want to live well, there is no personal freedom to speak of." โ
"But only by making full use of the current resources and rules, weakening the external constraints on oneself, and achieving one's own goals, this is the best choice. It's like a dance in shackles, once you think you can't do it, you really lose. โ
"I wasn't sure enough...... But I'm sure now it's the queen. Shen Ruyu sighed, "Ruzhuo, I may not be able to take you back now." โ
Shen Ruzhuo looked at her with a pale face, "Then, what should I do?" โ
Shen Ruyu thought about it, and found that she could only ask Wang Zijun.
When they went up the mountain, they also met Xu Fu halfway, this honest coachman explained to Shen Ruyu with a panicked face that he didn't find what she left behind, seeing him so uneasy, Shen Ruyu apologized to him a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, maybe I remembered wrong." โ
She said to him gently, "I'll take this child to Zijun, can you wait for me at the bottom of the mountain?" โ
Xu Fu nodded again and again, grinning and running down the mountain.
Shen Ruzhuo stood silently behind Shen Ruyu, watched her finish commanding the coachman, turned her face and smiled at herself, "Let's go." โ
He obediently followed for a while, but he still couldn't help but pull her sleeve, and Shen Ruyu gently turned his head to look at him.
"Why ......," Shen Ruzhuo asked hesitantly, "why do you say sorry to a coachman?" โ
"This, you see, he's so old," Shen Ruyu explained a little embarrassed, "I supported him back and forth, as if he was playing tricks on him, and he still didn't complain, and he was so scared of something unwarranted, he didn't feel ...... Is it really a little uncomfortable? โ
Obviously, Shen Ruzhuo, a daughter who was born and raised in a hierarchical family, had a hard time understanding this uneasy mood.
"Sister," Shen Ruzhuo looked at her incredulously. "You...... It's so kind. โ
Shen Ruyu stared at him for a long time and laughed, "You must think I'm stupid in your heart, right?" โ
She touched Shen Ruzhuo's head, "But everyone deserves to be respected." Regardless of his identity and status. โ
"There's a good saying," she smiled, remembering a phrase often heard in modern society, "Respect for others is respect for yourself." โ
Shen Ruzhuo glanced at her very seriously and laughed, "Sister is the same as rumored." โ
"Rumors?" Ruyu looked at him curiously.
"Hmm!" seemed to feel Shen Ruyu's attention, and Shen Ruzhuo said happily, "Although I used to be always sick in bed, people around me often talked about Sister A. โ
"Said that Sister Ah is very gentle, treats her subordinates very well, is very kind, and is a good person with a bodhisattva's heart. Good-looking, talented, and not like some people who are arrogant, arrogant, very considerate of other people's difficulties, even if the other party is a subordinate, some small favors will also help, clean yourself, noble temperament, there seems to be a family in my yard, sister, you also painted a picture for him, right? โ
"I heard that the family was very young at that time, and he was walking on the road, and suddenly he met you, sister, and after he saluted you, you looked at him for a long time, and asked him happily if you could help him draw a photo."
When Ruzhuo said this, Ruyu seemed to think vaguely.
"Ah, isn't that the boy with Western Regions blood?"
"Yes, yes, yes! It's him, he has always had low self-esteem for his light brown eyes, so he never dared to look up at people, and I don't know how you like him, sister? โ
"At that time, I encountered a bottleneck in painting, and I felt that I couldn't draw well, so I was very bored and walked in the garden, and then suddenly I saw a child with very white skin and three-dimensional facial features, with long and dense eyelashes, as if he had exotic blood, and suddenly he was inspired."
Shen Ruyu whispered to him while reminding him to step carefully over a stone on the ground, "Is that kid inferior?" His eyes were beautiful, like golden sunlight. โ
"It seems to be much better...... "Ruzhuo's tone suddenly lowered, "I...... When I left, I was still a little introverted, but it was much better than the cowering look I used to have, and I don't know how it is now......"
Shen Ruyu patted his head comfortingly, trying to think positively: "-At least, you have a healthy body now?" โ
But Shen Ruzhuo puffed out his mouth in frustration, "But why did you become a man!" And my original body is gradually getting better now! He looked at Shen Ruyu with fantasy, "Sister, you say, will I be able to go back one day in the future?" โ
Shen Ruyu thought about it and smiled a little helplessly, "Do you think it's so easy to exchange souls?" Can you bargain like buying groceries? Besides, you went back, what about the queen's soul? โ
As soon as he thought of this, Shen Ruzhuo couldn't help but sigh, "Why does the queen ...... You've got to find me......"
He always felt that it was because of the dragon energy in the royal family that he was able to come back to life, although Shen Ruyu scoffed at this idea, but she didn't show it too obviously.
"Maybe he has some unfulfilled wishes?" Until they came to the main gate of Changchun Temple, Ruzhuo still assumed with some luck, "Maybe we helped him fulfill his wish, and he is willing to reincarnate?" โ
Shen Ruyu was amused by his innocence, and couldn't help but flick his head, "Stupid, how do you know that the queen's wish is not to ascend to the throne?" โ
Ru Zhuo was stunned for a moment, "But, ......" He subconsciously lowered his voice in a little panic, "But the current emperor is his son?" He loves His Majesty so much......"
Shen Ruyu looked at him gently.
Shen Ruzhuo slumped his shoulders in frustration, "My idea is stupid? โ
Shen Ruyu smiled and did not speak.
When they walked into Changchun Temple, Wang Zijun had already started a day's work - every day at noon and evening, she would distribute porridge in the front hall of Changchun Temple, and distribute it to poor families who came to receive it for free.
Shen Ruzhuo said before that when he woke up, someone brought him food, so obviously the original body of this body was a person who was taken care of by Changchun Guan, so when Wang Zijun saw him, he called out his name in surprise, "Oh, Ah Brick, are you well?" โ
Shen Ruyu was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing, "Ah, bricks? โ
Shen Ruzhuo was obviously dumbfounded by such a rustic nickname, and it took a long time to point at him, and asked uncertainly, "I...... A brick? โ
Wang Zijun looked at them a little blankly, and tilted his head in confusion, "What's wrong?" Ruyu, why are you with Ah Brick? โ
Shen Ruyu smiled so much that she couldn't speak, she waved her hand, Shen Ruzhuo pursed her mouth a little unhappily, and gently patted Shen Ruyu's back dissatisfied.
Shen Ruyu was not angry, but naturally reached out and rubbed his head.
It was Wang Zijun who was stunned at this time.
Because of such an intimate action, it obviously means that the relationship between him and Shen Ruyu is extraordinary.
"Uh, he'...... Ah brick, Zijun, can you help me take care of him? Shen Ruyu was still a little immersed in the joke of the name A Brick.
Wang Zijun's eyes swept back and forth between Shen Ruyu and Shen Ruzhuo suspiciously, "Ruyu, you are preparing to carry His Majesty the Emperor on your back...... Raise one with me, little ...... Lover? โ
Shen Ruyu couldn't help choking.
