Chapter 18: Humility and Respect
This makes her look like the adopted daughter of the Shen family!! She shouldn't be so embarrassed!
"Brother Shen Yan!!"
was poked in the sore spot, Shen Rou's face burned, and she twisted her body unrelentingly, and looked at Jiang Nuan's eyes more and more embarrassed.
Shen Yan's Governor's Mansion was built on a remote hillside in the western suburbs, half an hour's drive from the center of Yuzhou, paved with European-style street lamps.
The thick green cypress trees on both sides echo each other, and when the wind blows, the sound of hula and the refreshing smell of grass can be smelled.
Shen Xijun came early, brought his wife and daughter, changed into a suit, and always had that humble and obedient smile on his face. Seeing Shen Yan entertaining them alone, Shen Rou couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Why don't you see Miss Hua?" ”
Shen Rou looked around curiously.
Shen Yan smiled casually, not caring and said, "Ah Ying was originally coming, but I asked my father to go shopping." ”
Shen Yan's gaze generously skipped Mrs. Shen, and finally landed on Shen Xijun's face.
Mrs. Shen smiled faintly, quiet and inward, just like every woman in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there was an indescribable grace.
The intelligence said that she was a native of Suzhou, born in 1899, the time of leaving China is unknown, the time of marrying Shen Xijun is unknown, and it is unknown when she will return to China, the only thing she knows in detail is that she is Shen Xijun's wife.
Shen Xijun has no wives and concubines, and no children, Yang Bijun is his only and legally registered wife.
Shen Yan glanced at Mrs. Shen generously, and unexpectedly noticed a trace of melancholy in her eyes.
"It's my honor to be here today, Mr. Shen, please!"
The new cook from the Overseer's Mansion was surnamed Wang, and he had a lot of cooking, and he learned his cooking skills at that time.
During the serving period, Shen Xijun and Shen Yan had a very happy conversation, and Shen Rou also made a few funny words from time to time, occasionally mentioning the flower cherry, Shen Rou boldly joked, and then smiled a little more.
Only Mrs. Shen, like any housewife in Japan, just smiled and watched her husband and daughter chat, without saying a word.
Until the dish was served, all the colors of Sichuan and Chongqing, the first dish was mapo tofu, Shen Xijun was full of praise for this dish, and praised the chef for being authentic.
Shen Yan was interested, but when he talked about the boss, the chef's expression was a little indifferent, and he couldn't raise his interest.
Shen Yan waved his hand and added an extra month's monthly money, and the cook responded with a smile, turned around and retreated.
This meal was very pleasant, and Shen Xijun praised it repeatedly, saying that he hadn't eaten such a good dish for a long time. When he said this, Shen Xijun glanced at Yang Bijun teasingly, and there were some jokes of old husbands and wives.
Yang Bijun's face turned red, a trace of unnaturalness flashed very quickly, he lowered his head and smiled embarrassedly, but still didn't speak.
Shen Yan smiled heartily, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at Mrs. Shen with interest, "How did Mrs. Shen meet Mr. Shen?" ”
Yang Bijun's expression was stunned, she didn't expect Shen Yan to lead the topic to her, she was speechless for a while, just looked at Shen Yan with a smile, but Shen Xijun laughed and said, "This should be asked to me, Bijun has always been inward-looking, she doesn't like to talk, please forgive me, she met me when she went to study abroad, we fell in love at first sight, and they were quickly together, and then there was Rou'er, she was homesick, I simply followed her back to Yuzhou, I am really glad, Yuzhou mountains and rivers are beautiful, it is a treasure trove, I really regret not meeting her earlier!" ”
Shen Xijun glanced at his wife with a smile and looked at Shen Yan kindly, "I heard Rou'er say that Miss Hua is an old noble, this is really a coincidence, Miss Hua treats Rou'er very well, what is there to do to play, just tell Rou'er, they are young and can always speak, unlike my wife, who is an adult, and I am afraid that Miss Hua will be restrained!" ”
Shen Yan didn't care, nodded with a smile, and looked at Liangzi's long and deep gaze, "Shen Rou is smart and beautiful, Miss Hua has praised her several times, and she also likes it very much, she will come to accompany Ah Ying more in the future, she is not familiar with life in Yuzhou alone, and she needs a friend like you very much." ”
Shen Rou paused, with an innocent expression, Shen Xijun squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Yan, feeling a little relieved.
Shen Yan is showing favor to him?
"But in the final analysis, Mr. Shen has lived in Yuzhou for a long time, Shen Yan has only been here for six years, less than half of Mr. Shen's connections, on the day of the Yuzhou Restaurant, even the Yu Overseer gave a big gift, which is a great glory with Mr. Shen, who doesn't know that he has never been temperate, and he is also stingy, think about it, Mr. Shen and him in private, should have a good relationship."
Shen Yan said while glancing at Shen Xijun intentionally or unintentionally, Shen Xijun's eyebrows jumped, smiled warmly, and covered it up, "The Overseer is serious, the congratulatory gift sent by the Overseer that day is really valuable, I was still worried for a while, in fact, I was really uneasy in my heart." ”
Shen Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Rou, Shen Rou's smiling appearance did not change, but Yang Bijun's face flashed, and a touch of pain disappeared very quickly. Shen Yan smiled knowingly, and tapped his fingers twice on the table, "Mr. Shen is too polite, valued, it means that Mr. Shen must have something extraordinary, today I rashly invited Mr. Shen to the official residence as a guest, and I hope that we can get along happily in the future, and work together for a better tomorrow in Yuzhou. ”
But these words are already extremely explicit, although Shen Xijun still has doubts in his heart, but Shen Yu is still locked up in the prison at this time, he used the excuse of the four armies to disturb local security, tied up one life for another, Shen Yan should have no way out, if he cooperates with Shen Yu again, then he, the overseer of Yuzhou, will really do it.
But thinking of this, Shen Xijun smiled and said happily, "I can't thank you enough for the words of the Overseer, and I will definitely do my best to cooperate with you and help the Overseer brilliant!" ”
Until the glass is touched, the red liquid gently ripples in the glass, and then falls into the mouth.
Shen Yan seemed to be relieved, and said happily, "Mr. Shen, I heard that you have recently had a horse in the trading house that can't be transported?" ”
"Speaking of this, the Overseer is really melancholy, the shortage of goods is not a matter of one or two days, especially anti-inflammatory drugs, the supply is the tightest, the political situation in the south has been unstable these days, so, the supervision is unusually strict, my buddy has not made it out after walking a few times, no, I still owe the hospital a bill that has not been paid!"
Shen Xijun said, shaking his head, "How does the Overseer know?" ”
"Miss Hua was injured that day, and I went to Yuzhou Hospital with her, and I happened to hear the doctor say this, saying that there were no anti-inflammatory drugs, and many patients were waiting for help. In this way, I will write a letter, Mr. Shen asked the guy to take my letter and walk from the Overseer's Wharf to buy medicine, although the north and south are unstable now, but I think my face can still be worth a few cents, so is it good? ”
Shen Xijun was stunned for a moment, and his expression immediately showed a bit of ecstasy, "Overseer, are you willing to help with this?" ”
If there is Shen Yan's overseer hand, then this medicine can go directly to the hands of the Japanese army and go all out to deal with the Northern Resistance League! He can also make a profit from it and make a huge profit!
But once Shen Yan intervenes in the affairs of the world, if he wants to run again, it will not be so easy, Shen Yu grass wraps one, as long as he controls the northwest!!
Shen Yan laughed and said unconcernedly, "This is also for the people of Yuzhou, why not!" Tomorrow you send someone to my office, and Qingbai will forward the letter to you. ”
Shen Xijun was moved by the illusory scene in his mind, suddenly got up and walked to the chair, bowed to Shen Yan, and said very cautiously, "The friendship of the overseers, I, Shen Xijun, should cherish it doubly!" ”
The corners of Shen Yan's mouth rose slightly, and he smiled like nothing, "So, it's best." ”
After a few more words, Shen Xijun was about to get up and say goodbye, but Shen Yan didn't keep them, and sent them to the door of the living room, Shen Xijun thought about it, suddenly turned around and said with a smile, "Overseer, I heard that you have been unwell recently and your shoulders are sore?" ”
Shen Yan paused, and then smiled like he was really like that, "No, I may have had some back pain recently." ”
Shen Xijun's eyes drooped, and he said unhurriedly, "Rou'er learned a good skill of massage at home, if the Overseer doesn't dislike it, let Rou'er help the Overseer straighten the bones, so that the pain can be relieved as soon as possible?" ”
As he spoke, he looked at Shen Yan with deep meaning, Yang Bijun's face turned pale, and he was about to open his mouth involuntarily, but his arm suddenly tingled.
She changed her expression painfully and lowered her head indifferently. Shen Yan looked at Liangzi, then at Shen Xijun, and after a long time, he smiled happily, "Then there will be labor." ”
In the night, Shen Xijun took Yang Bijun and gradually left, leaving Shen Rou in Shen Yan's mansion.
The dark carriage was silent, and Shen Xijun and Yang Bijun were silent and didn't say a word.
For a long time, Yang Bijun's voice sounded in the carriage with all his strength, and he couldn't hide his trembling and coldness.
"Rou'er is your daughter!"
She choked up in despair, he was her father, how could he give his daughter to other men as playthings at will??
Shen Xijun's eyes were a little cold, "Is this something you should take care of?" ”
"She's my daughter too!!"
Yang Bijun couldn't bear it anymore and yelled at Shen Xijun.
Eighteen years, she endured eighteen years, let her do whatever she wanted, isn't it enough?? And now add her daughter, why??!
"Yang Bijun, you should know that you are not qualified to yell at me,"
Shen Xijun's tone was light, without the slightest intention of being provoked, but a light flashed on the lens of his glasses, with a strange light, "Rou'er, like you, will be the best gift for a man, I have trained her for so many years, she is my best weapon." ”
After a pause in this matter, Shen Xijun suddenly turned his face and looked out the window, "And she has already helped me take down Shen Yu, can I serve one more man?" ”
Yang Bijun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly pounced on him like crazy and beat him, but was slapped by Shen Xijun with his backhand and slapped him on the seat.
"Yang Bijun, have you forgotten my kindness?"
Shen Xijun approached her and showed a strange smile like a devil, "I rescued you from the military prostitutes, and married you, such a great kindness, why, have you forgotten?" ”
Yang Bijun's body stiffened, nailed to the spot like nails, and in the blurred tears, she seemed to see another Shen Rou being beaten by countless men*, unable to survive or die.
