294 Pear Water
With Shen Roujin here, the atmosphere between the mother and daughter can always be a little less lively.
"Mother, are you happy that your father has been promoted?" Shen Rouning asked softly while teasing Shen Rou.
"It's not about being happy or unhappy." Mrs. Shen replied calmly: "It's just that the location of Xuzhou Mansion is important, and your father ...... him."
"Does my mother think that my father is not up to the task?" Shen Rouning couldn't hear what she meant. She looked at Mrs. Shen Si and saw that she shook her head calmly, Shen Rouning spoke again: "Father has always put the small family first. ”
The most important thing in my heart has always been my beloved wife.
"For you and this family, my father has been working hard." Shen Rou condensed: "Especially now. He must also want to earn a fortune for you, so that when you return to Beijing again, you can interact with people in a dignified manner, and not be like a dwarf. The last time I went back to Beijing, you didn't go out of the door, and my father saw it in his eyes and was very heartbroken. ”
Mrs. Shen Si was once the proud daughter of the sky, what a proud person. Even if she didn't have that kind of intimate handkerchief when she was young, she grew up in the capital, and the nobles of each family must have known each other. Later, the ladies she met married rich and noble one by one, and she married an unknown ...... When you think about it, you must feel bad in your heart.
Even Emperor Qinglong had a similar mind-
She failed to marry the most honorable person to be a cloud in the heavens, but married as humble as mud under her feet...... How could Mrs. Shen Si proudly face Emperor Qinglong? How can you raise your head in front of him?
Emperor Qinglong may not take the true and false feelings of the year too seriously...... But Mrs. Shen Si can't forget it. Especially now, when she thinks that he has failed her, she is even more sorry for her. She needed to be able to hold her head high in front of him.
Mrs. Shen's face changed slightly, and she said after a long time: "He thinks too much." ”
She married him back then, more because of negative energy. Negative anger with the family, negative anger with oneself, and negative anger with that person. And after more than ten years of dull days, she is no longer angry, thinking that it is not bad to live such a simple life, it is not that she is really moved by Shen Si.
I don't love it, and I don't hate it.
He treated her very well, and she knew that there would be no second person in the world. So I accepted him.
"If it is tied to the heart. No matter how big or small, you have to think about it repeatedly. Shen Rou smiled and pinned a beaded flower to Xiao Ayan's head, while praising her for her good looks.
Mrs. Shen Si didn't know what to think. He didn't speak for a long time.
Half a day. Only then did she say to Shen Rouning: "You are a girl's family." But they persuaded me. ”
Shen Rouning was a little embarrassed, and said very sincerely: "I always have to say good things for my father, and I hope that my father and mother can have deep affection." Home is warm and welcoming. ”
"What about yourself?" For some reason, Mrs. Shen Si blurted out such words.
Shen Rouning was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "My daughter is not in a hurry for this now." ”
Mrs. Shen's eyes flashed with a moment of annoyance, and after a while, she became indifferent, and seemed to be a little serious: "I know that as a mother, I am not up to the task. And you've grown up, not like your brother...... Your family affairs always have to be considered. If you have any ideas, please let me know. ”
At this time, Mrs. Shen Si realized that because she was too lazy to socialize, she didn't know a few young people, and she wanted to give her daughter some advice, but she couldn't do it. She frowned and thought for a while before she said, "I heard that your aunt's maiden family is gone, but Deng Changnian, who was expelled from the house, is now very beautiful and has become a young general?" ”
"I guess so." Shen Rouning hadn't heard from Deng Changnian for a while: "He is very talented in fighting and is willing to fight." ”
Perhaps it's because there is no wind today, the afternoon sun is exceptionally gentle, and the fragrance of daffodils on the windowsill is relaxing...... The conversation between the mother and daughter, who sat opposite each other across the kang table with similar faces, was also extraordinarily peaceful and smooth-
"I heard Mama Fan mention that he has been fond of you since he was a child." Mrs. Shen Si waved her hand and asked Shen Rou to listen to herself first: "The affection that has been accompanied since childhood is always stronger than that of strangers. When a daughter marries, face is important, and benefits are even more important. ”
"If the Deng family has no one else, you can live a small life alone; And he is also capable, and he can always protect you. Mrs. Shen Si picked another pearl flower for Shen Rouhuan, and said, "As for his appearance, although it is not very satisfactory...... As I said, when a woman marries, it is always cheap. He's not ugly to look at, he's just too thin. ”
In Mrs. Shen's impression, Deng Changnian was still the little boy who was as thin as a bamboo pole. In terms of appearance, it's really not the type that can make a boudoir girl fall in love at first sight.
"Mother thinks he's a good fit?" Shen Rouning didn't dislike Mrs. Shen Si for saying this, but considered her words very seriously. She always has to get married. So, sooner or later, you have to think about this.
"You're a very assertive girl." Mrs. Shen Si didn't answer directly: "I think, the most important thing for you to marry should be your husband's family, especially if your husband can tolerate you and won't imprison you too much." ”
Mrs. Shen Si knew that Shen Rouning was very smart, so she believed that she could understand her words.
"I'll think about it." Shen Rouning nodded.
Mrs. Shen Si didn't say anything more, coaxed Shen Rouyuan to put down the bead flower, brought a glass of rock sugar pear water, and fed her to drink. In the early winter weather, it is still warm at first, and the throat will always be a little uncomfortable.
Shen Rouning never thought that Mrs. Shen Si could also have such patience and carefulness. Mrs. Shen Si's gentle and gentle expression, gentle and gentle movements, she felt a little sour in her heart inexplicably.
"I've probably never bothered about you." After Mrs. Shen finished feeding Shen Rouyan, she added another bowl of pear water to Shen Rouning, laughed at herself slightly, and said, "Let's make up a little bit today." ”
"This compensation, how can it." Shen Rouning took the bowl and smiled, and used it up in small sips. Soon, the sour in her heart mixed with sweetness, which was quirky but unforgettable, which made her reminisce for a long time.
Mrs. Shen Si did not speak again.
Soon, Shen Rou Yuan yawned and was about to be sleepy, Shen Rou Ning also left the room, walked to the small courtyard outside, and walked slowly, thinking about what Mrs. Shen Si said just now.
Deng Changnian.
Qin Xu.
Or I forgot who mentioned the cousin of the Chen family to me. Of the three cousins, there is still one left, Chen Houwen, who is not married.
These three people, about her choice? Indeed, she didn't know any other young people. (To be continued......)
