The group entered the house, Shen Lan and Song Wenxiang officially gave the Shen couple a New Year's greeting, and presented a New Year's gift, Shen Xiaoquan naturally smiled from ear to ear, and took out a big red envelope for the stone as New Year's money, Shen Zhao also led Shen Mei, who had finished pouring tea, into the house to prepare for food, Shen Lan instructed Xiangling to help in the past, and he hugged the child and followed his younger brothers and sisters to Shen Mei's house to rest.

What should be said was already said yesterday, Shen Xiaoquan and Song Wenxiang were just chatting about some inconsequential things casually, but it didn't take long for other relatives to come to pay New Year's greetings, mainly Shen Xiaoquan and Shen Zhao's mother's nephews, all of whom are young people of the same age, but there is something to talk about, but Shen Lan is a little unfamiliar, after all, her amnesia has long been heard among relatives, so they don't care about her, and Shen Lan can be said to be the best among the younger generation today, so she is naturally sought after by everyone.

After using the dim sum prepared by Shen Zhao's family, Shen Lan said to Shen Xiaoquan, and called Song Wenxiang to go to Shen Yunting's New Year's greetings, and naturally prepared the same New Year's gift as the Shen family.

Shen Yunting's house is also very lively, Shen Lan and they came relatively late, so Shen Yunting's family has already come to a lot of relatives at this time, Shen Lan and Song Wenxiang brought a stone to Shen Yunting to present a New Year's gift, Shen Yunting smiled and stuffed a red envelope with a stone, and beckoned them to drink tea.

There were only two men in Shen Yunting's house, and he was a little inconsiderate in greeting, so Shen Lan simply handed over the stone to Song Wenxiang, went to the stove to help, and drove out Shen Renjie, who was busy inside. Talking to himself, he cooked noodles and made snacks for the guests outside, checked the things in the kitchen by the way, picked up the important ingredients and prepared to help cook the noon banquet, otherwise according to the arrangement of the Shen family father and son, everyone could only eat hot pot around the table, and other dishes could not be prepared at all.

Song Wenxiang didn't expect that his mother would not see her outside the Shen family at all, just like her daughter returning to her parents' house. And the Shen family's father and son haven't said a word to her. As she was busy working in the stove, she couldn't help but feel a little strange, but there was no need to talk about it. Instead, he followed Shen Yunting behind him and tacitly did the work of greeting guests.

Shen Lan was busy at Shen Yunting's house, and she didn't stay to eat, after all, she was always Shen Xiaoquan's daughter, although Shen Yunting is very rare now. But I also knew that she and Song Wenxiang would not be able to say that if they didn't go back to Shen's house for lunch, although they had some regrets, they didn't need to force it. just told Shen Lan to be empty again than to walk.

After a busy day, Shen Lan and his wife got into the carriage back in the afternoon, but they left Xiangling behind and told her to help take care of Shen Yunting and his son temporarily. No matter what, you have to pass the New Year's Pass these days, otherwise there will be no one at home to help entertain you. Shen Yunting was naturally pleased with Shen Lan's intimacy, and he did not accept Xiangling politely with Shen Lan.

After this day, Song Wenxiang can see it. His own lady has a very good temperament, even better than the original, otherwise how could he treat Shen Yunting and his son so sincerely, it is undeniable that Shen Yunting saved his mother's life, but how many people can have such clear grievances as his mother, and when he returned home, Song Wenxiang specially pulled Shen Lan into the house.

Shen Lan looked at the silver that Song Wenxiang took out, and her heart didn't feel good for a while, this should be the silver that Song Wenxiang gave her to support her family, shouldn't she take it out as soon as she comes back? What does it mean to take it out now?

"Lady, this is the husband's salary, originally planned to be collected for the father's mother, take out some for you to make pocket money, now the husband is all handed over to you, and you don't have to give them two taels of silver every month to support the elderly, the husband's monthly salary is not so much, where can they stay at home with so much money, it is not easy for you to do business, as long as there is a lot of their food and clothing, and then give a little pocket money, and if there is a disease, there is also a labor lady to find them a doctor and medicine." Song Wenxiang explained to Shen Lan seriously, now he is also a person with children, he can't take care of the old and forget the young, the stone is still small now, after all, he has to accumulate some family business, and in the future, he will give his son to study and even marry a wife.

Listening to Song Wenxiang's words in her ears, Shen Lan's mood was a little complicated, in this era when filial piety is greater than the sky, Shen Lan has long been prepared for Song Wenxiang's psychology of choosing her parents to abandon her and the stone, Song Wenxiang's filial piety to his parents is a matter of course, when Shen Lan was young, it was the period of popular Hong Kong films, at that time, what was preached was that brothers are siblings, wives are clothes, clothes can be changed, siblings cannot be broken, brothers can be siblings, let alone parents? Which is more important is obviously easier to measure, not to mention that when Shen Lan was a child, the social atmosphere had opened up a lot, and it was already very different from the current era, and they all had that kind of thinking, so what about this time?

"The affairs of the family have to be entrusted to the mother, the husband is the eldest son in the family, and you are also the eldest sister-in-law, in addition to the father and mother who need you to take care of it, the few small ones in the family also need you to take care of it, and it is also for the husband to be sorry for you, marrying you home did not let you live a good life, and you have to take care of the husband's parents and younger brothers and sisters, they are not careful, and please take care of ......the mother, the husband is always grateful to you" When Shen Lan bowed his head and was silent, Song Wenxiang continued, with a strong attachment in his heart, It was already Shangguan's grace to be able to go home for the past few days, how could he force more?

As he spoke, Song Wenxiang couldn't help choking up, how could a delicate wife and childish child be reluctant? The bitter cold of the frontier is in such a strong contrast with the warmth of home, how can he be willing to leave? In the end, Song Wenxiang took Shen Lan into his arms and hugged her tightly, almost crushing her bones and then rubbing them into his own blood.

Shen Lan listened silently, slightly moved in her heart, and then was hugged into her arms, obviously she was almost breathless, but she didn't struggle, maybe she didn't understand how cruel the war of this era is, but she learned something called reluctance from this man, so even if she was unhappy in her heart, she still didn't refuse to be hugged, after all, the place where this person is going is not a safe place, and she may lose her life at any time, so even a little comfort. Shen Lan felt that she should give, even if it was a stranger, she should not refuse at this moment.

Song Wenxiang chattered a lot this night, hugging Shen Lan and Shishi, like an old man who was about to die, he said a lot of words over and over again, and Shen Lan listened silently. The stone entered the dream early. fell asleep in his father's lullaby, while Shen Lan listened quietly, replying to a sentence or two from time to time. Let him know he's not talking to himself.

Song Wenxiang got up in a hurry before dawn the next day, and Shen Lan also got up to prepare breakfast, then helped pack up, and rode away with his luggage before the sun rose. Shen Lan silently watched him leave with the stone in his arms, just like he suddenly appeared. Now it is like the wind.

Song Wenxiang's departure did not affect the lives of most people, at least Shen Lan didn't feel that her life was any different, but felt a lot easier, and her family lived in a step-by-step manner. In a blink of an eye, it was the sixth day of the new year, and Shopkeeper Xu and Zhao Yuan had already returned, so the shop opened on time on this day.

At the same time, Shen Lan bought someone back. He is a young man in his twenties, dark and stout, and very suitable for farm work. Then the newly bought person was sent to the Song family together with Yan Niang, after Song Wenxiang left, Shen Lan had a good exchange with Yan Niang, and there were two ways in front of Yan Niang, one was to go to Songjia Village to serve the Song family, and the other was sold into the building by Shen Lan, not that Shen Lan was ruthless, but really felt that Yan Niang was not a peaceful master, Yan Niang naturally refused to fall into such a place, so she nodded and agreed to go to Songjia Village.

Shen Lan handed over the Yan Niang silver to be responsible for the Song family's food, there must be braised pork at once, the dishes must be fried with thick lard, and the salt cannot be saved, as for the newly bought Wang Zheng is responsible for the Song family's field, in the future, the old man and the old lady are not allowed to work in the field, they can only enjoy happiness at home, in addition, Shen Lan also gave the two old people a month of silver as a pocket flower, and for a while, Shen Lan's reputation spread throughout the Songjia Village and even the surrounding villages, and everyone knew that no one knew about it, and became a virtuous daughter-in-law in ten miles and eight villages.

Of course, many people say that Shen Lan is doing something, only Shen Lan knows why she is doing this, in fact, there are many ways to make people die silently, and there are even many ways to clean up people, but Shen Lan doesn't want to do that, she Shen Lan not only wants to let outsiders have nothing to say to her, even if there is really something to do with the two old people in the future, no one will think of her, although this approach is very rough, anyone who crosses knows what Shen Lan is going to do, but people in this era don't understand, but they think that Shen Lan is a virtuous and filial person, and they all praise her.

As soon as the affairs of the Song family were dealt with, Shen Lan received a message from her mother's family, asking her to go back, and Shen Lan was not busy at this time, so she planned to let Shen Changhai catch a carriage to send her back to see what was going on.

After the New Year, Xiangling has returned to Shen Lan's side, and Shen Lan has recruited another guy in the shop, so Xiangling stayed with Shen Lan to help take care of the stones, and after some time, Shen Lan's new house will also start to be renovated, there was nothing in the house before, so it is necessary to invite carpenters and other craftsmen to beat furniture and build stoves to arrange water pipes, dig wells and other matters, these things have not been taken long after the New Year, so they will start to work after fifteen, and make wood for furniture, The water pipes in the bathroom and the door valves and water pipes of the air pressure well all need to be bought and found by Shen Lan in person, so Shen Lan wanted to hurry up and take care of the other chores, and began to decorate the new house.

After receiving the message and returning to Shen's house, Shen Lan just entered the door and saw that her father was in the hall, and immediately shouted with a smile: "Dad." ”

Shen Xiaoquan nodded, not as enthusiastic as before, but a little more cold, which made Shen Lan a little confused.

"Dad, you brought me a message to come back, but what's the matter?" Seeing this, Shen Lan thought that something had happened at home, so she hurriedly asked again.

Shen Xiaoquan raised his eyes and glanced at her, and then said coldly, "Sit down." ”

Shen Lan didn't understand it even more, but she still obediently found a chair and sat down, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.

"I heard that you bought a couple of people for your father and mother-in-law? And give them money every month? Shen Xiaoquan waited for Shen Lan to sit down before asking.

It turned out to be this matter, Shen Lan was startled, and thought that something had happened at home, at this time, she heard Shen Xiaoquan ask, so she replied: "Yes, when Wen Xiang left home, he left me fifty taels of silver and asked me to take care of his father, so I found someone for them to call, so that they would not go around and say that Wen Xiang had forgotten his book." ”

"You are a good daughter-in-law, you can help your man plan everything, why don't you want to think about your own father? People say that girls are extroverted, but I don't believe it in the past, I always think that my adopted daughter is close to her mother's family, but now it seems that she has applied for the old saying. Shen Xiaoquan endured the anger in his heart and slowly said such words.

Suddenly, Shen Lan was on pins and needles, she didn't expect Shen Xiaoquan to be more accountant than this, to be honest, she helped her mother's family a lot, not to mention that she didn't have any kindness towards Song Wenxiang's parents like that, but at this moment, she couldn't say this, so she could only be silent.

"What? Lost heart? How did the old immortal treat you, you forgot it cleanly? You have to be taken care of, and you have to be served with food and money, are you not long-hearted or what? Shen Xiaoquan really didn't expect his daughter to be so useless, and as soon as Song Wenxiang's kid fooled her, he brushed aside how the Song family treated her, and became a virtuous daughter-in-law, why didn't he get angry?

"Dad, why should you envy others? If you want to live like that, I can let you live it, aren't it just two servants? I'll buy you two back, and as for pocket money, I'll give it to you and my mother. Since it is a matter of money, then use money to solve it, in fact, she is also ready to give Shen Xiaoquan a sum of money to make him a rich landlord, but she didn't expect that she hadn't started to prepare, Shen Xiaoquan came to the door, to be honest, she was actually a little tired in her heart.

"Is it about money? I raised you with your mother, you are out of breath, I don't think about my father, but about the in-laws who are not as good as pigs and dogs, aren't you cold to me and your mother's heart? Why do you think I raised such a thing as you? Do you know how people outside laugh at me and your mother? Shen Xiaoquan scolded angrily, he was not angry that Shen Lan didn't buy him servants and money, mainly because he was angry with the sour words of outsiders, in fact, he knew in his heart that when his daughter came back and didn't carry a big bag to the house, even the money was given many times.
