"It's idle at the end of the year, I'll come to see you." Chen Houyun's eyebrows were soothing, with a smile.

Shen Rouning immediately put down the account book, and was about to say to those stewards, "I'll be here today", but saw that Chen Houyun had already found a chair not far away and sat down, and said to Shen Rouning: "And busy with you." ”

Shen Rouning hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and reconciled with the stewards again.

These things were not difficult in her eyes. These stewards had long admired Shen Rouning's rational methods and didn't dare to fool them, at this time, Chen Houyun, who had heard that he was very powerful, was sitting aside, and the stewards didn't dare to play tricks, and they all showed twelve points of caution, and they didn't dare to be verbose, and the progress immediately became faster.

Chen Houyun sat very steadily.

He looked at Shen Rouning, who was sitting on the main seat. I saw that her eyebrows were timeless and picturesque, her posture was as elegant as bamboo, and the two points of crimson that slowly grew on her cheeks were like two red plums in the vast snow, and the beauty of the temporary release was enough to cleanse people's hearts...... When she grew up, she no longer wore a tender bun, but pulled a butterfly-shaped bun, on which a lifelike butterfly hairpin was attached, and the remaining green silk was scattered and hung low like satin, wrapped around the jade neck, black and white scattered, moving.

His little girl has really grown up.

Chen Houyun's gaze couldn't help but fall, and the exquisite and graceful arc of his eyes made his throat tighten, and his heart was scorching! Chen Houyun immediately closed his eyes, smiled bitterly, and tried his best to suppress the burning restlessness in his heart, his eyes became clear again, and when he opened them again, there was also a touch of tenderness.

Shen Rouning didn't seem to feel Chen Houyun's gaze.

There were a lot of people at this time. Not only did she not dare to be distracted, but she was more attentive. If there is something omission, not only should he make a fool of himself in front of these stewards, but also let Chen Houyun laugh at himself.

When she finally finished handling the housework and watched the housekeepers leave, she set her eyes on Chen Houyun, and when she looked at each other, she found the appreciation and tenderness in Chen Houyun's eyes, and her cheeks were crimson again, but she did not twist the posture of the little daughter. generously invited Chen Houyun to leave here and go to the inner courtyard. As he walked, he asked, "Cousin is passing by?" ”

Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve.

This is followed by the various rituals.

Chen Houyun, as the eldest grandson of the Chen family, is a little inappropriate if he is absent. It is also disrespectful to the ancestors. Therefore, Shen Rouning didn't think that Chen Houyun had come to see her for a while. She felt. Chen Houyun is mostly on a business trip in the north. When I returned to the capital. Just by the way, well, maybe a corner. came to visit their siblings.

Chen Houyun shook his head: "I heard that my uncle and aunt have returned to Shenjia Village and are not in Xuzhou...... I couldn't rest assured, so I came from the capital to spend the New Year with you. He didn't lie to Shen Rouning either. Wisdom like him has long understood that an inconspicuous lie will be followed by countless lies.

And why did he lie to Shen Rouning? It doesn't make sense.

The relationship between the two of them, before Shen Rouning left Beijing, had crossed the clear road between Chen Gong and Chen Da Ye and Mrs. Chen, and they had already made an agreement with each other and exchanged tokens, this marriage has been decided, just wait for Xiao Chengfang to turn two years old, and Shen Rouning will also reach the age of sixteen, and he will officially be hired by three media.

Now that the names of the two have been decided, Chen Houyun will naturally no longer hide his love.

Shen Rouning's heart throbbed when she heard this, and her face turned even crimson, but she couldn't help but ask in disbelief: "Cousin wants to stay in Xuzhou for the New Year?" Over there in the capital, does it really matter? ”

"What does it matter? In previous years, there were times when I was not there. Chen Houyun smiled and said: "There are grandfathers, fathers and second uncles in the family, and they are not indispensable for me." Besides, isn't it because my uncle and aunt are not there this time? Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of it. ”

It is precisely because Shen Si and his wife are no longer there, there are no adults in the Shen family's sisters and brothers, and they have no relatives and friends in Xuzhou Mansion, and they have no official protection...... In order not to be surprised, as soon as Chen Houyun proposed to come over, the elders agreed without much consideration.

Shen Rou thought about her grandfather's love for her people, and she was indeed not at ease, so she immediately believed Chen Houyun's words and stopped worrying, and felt extra warm in her heart, and said softly: "My cousin is here, and I am much more at ease." ”

lost the calm decision when facing the stewards just now, and there was a touch of weakness and dependence.

Chen Houyun's heart suddenly added a little more responsibility to protect his sweetheart, his eyes were even more gentle, and he said without hesitation: "En, leave it to me." ”

Just now, he was sitting in the hall listening to Shen Rouning and the directors of the stewards, and he already knew the situation in the fourth room of the Shen family-

When Master Shen Si was an official before, it was the busiest time, and he couldn't finish handling government affairs every day, so he didn't have time to take care of housework at all. Fortunately, Mrs. Shen Si changed her mentality and took charge of the house, and she didn't let Master Shen Si worry about it. But in the past few months since Shen Rouning came back from the capital, Mrs. Shen Si arrested her as a coolie under the pretext of letting Shen Rouning be familiar with the directors and directors, and now the fourth room of the Shen family is basically Shen Rouning in charge.

Therefore, what Shen Rouning took care of just now was not trivial matters. It is precisely because of this that Chen Houyun learned a lot from their conversation.

Shen Rouning just said it casually, but when she heard Chen Houyun respond, she was a little surprised in her heart, and she was moved again, she glanced at Chen Houyun with a smile and nodded lightly.

When they arrived in the inner courtyard, they took a seat in the hospitality hall of the main courtyard, and Shen Duanrong and Shen Rouyan also rushed over, and they were happy again. Shen Rouyuan was still young, so she played by herself after a while. Shen Rouning also had to arrange food, clothing, housing and transportation for Chen Houyun, so Chen Houyun stayed in the flower hall to teach and guide Shen Duanrong's studies.

Outside, fine snow fluttered in the breeze, obscuring the sky and the earth into a gray-white patch.

Chen Houyun and Shen Rouning, Shen Duanrong and Shen Rouyan sat around a table, the table was full of hot and fragrant dishes, especially the two plates of green vegetables, full of greenery, which particularly aroused people's appetite and made people's appetite move.

"Cousin, Ah Ning toasts you." Shen Rouning stood up and raised her glass to Chen Houyun.

Chen Houyun also stood up and said with a smile: "Well, you and I drink this cup together." "Anyway, drink it all.

Shen Rouning also drank the wine, put down the wine cup, her cheeks were red, and her eyes were rolling.

When they look at each other again, everything is silent.

There was a lot of snow outside, but inside the house was warm and peaceful.

Shen Duanrong originally picked up the wine cup and wanted to learn from Shen Rouning to toast Chen Houyun, but at this time, he suddenly discovered the strangeness between Chen Houyun and Shen Rouning, his eyes rolled wildly for a while, and finally he drank a glass of wine with a smile. Well, it doesn't seem appropriate to interject at this time. He thought to himself. (To be continued.) )
