Volume 1 - Who Have Seen Again Chapter 135 Catching the Wind and Washing the Dust (3)
Looking at the woman in filial piety who was standing at the door of the front hall, wailing loudly, as Xu had just turned the shadow wall, a young man surnamed Shen was dumbfounded
Xu's face was frosty, but he didn't look at the second wife, but with worry in his eyes, he walked a few steps, bypassed the second wife, and quickly picked up the curtain and entered the hall
In the hall, the third old man leaned back in his chair with a pale face, breathing rapidly.
The eldest master was beside him, and shouted: "Don't be angry, don't be annoyed" He drank sharply in his mouth, with anxiety on his face, but the movements in his hands were extremely gentle, caressing the chest of the third master.
The third lady was beside her, looking at her husband with horror on her face, tears rolling in her eyes.
Seeing Xu come in, the third wife immediately seemed to have found the backbone, and said in a lamented voice: "Sister-in-law, are you back......?"
When the third master heard the movement, he looked at the door, his face showed joy, but between the mood fluctuations, his originally somewhat steady breathing became rapid again
Xu nodded appeasefully at the third wife, and said angrily to the third master: "How many Buddhist scriptures have you copied on weekdays, why are you still like a child?" I haven't been at home for two or three months, but the third brother's temper has risen" When it comes to the worst, I can't bear to be harsh, and my tone can't help but soften.
The third old man smiled on his face, closed his eyes slightly, and silently recited the "Heart Sutra" in his heart, and his breathing gradually calmed down.
The second wife stood at the door, not paying attention to the movement in the hall, but sobbing and stopping her voice, looking at the young man of the Shen clan who was thrown by the Xu family in front of the shadow wall. She skipped Shen Rui and Shen Jue, who were underweight, and skipped the wooden and honest Shen Lin, the hemp stick-like Shen Qin, and the round winter melon-like Shen Bao, and fell straight onto Shen Zhu and Shen all over the body.
The two of them are seventeen or eighteen years old, good-looking, decently tidy, like a pair of handsome young men.
The second wife's expression was first surprised, then sluggish, then sad, and finally angry. If they can shoot knives in their eyes, Shen Zhu and Shen Quan will definitely have a thousand holes.
Shen Zhu saw that this momentum was not right, and his heart beat a drum; Shen Quan's scalp was numb as he was stared at, but he still took a step sideways and blocked Shen Zhu behind him.
A few small ones also noticed that something was wrong.
Although everyone knows that Shen Luo is gone, there are so many elders in the second room, and now it is a new year, and this filial piety dress is too dazzling, and it is taboo.
And this woman stared at everyone's gaze, cold and piercing, and the ground was terrifying.
There are a total of three wives in the second room, and no one has introduced this person in front of him, but looking at his age and this dress, it is not difficult to guess his identity.
Shen Quan already regretted it in his heart, and he didn't know why this person was staring at him and Shen Zhu. If it weren't for the fact that there were still these clan brothers behind him, he would have turned around and left immediately.
He entered Beijing with the Xu family, which was a stopper, and he was instructed by the Guo family to take care of Shen Rui. Now that everyone has arrived safely on the ground, the atmosphere in the second room is really weird. If only he and Shen Rui entered Beijing, he could still find a reason to take Shen Rui to his eldest brother's house; Now that so many brothers are here, and each room is coming for the heir of the second room, he wants to take others and doesn't go with him. As the head of the people, it is difficult for him to keep his brothers here.
Shen Rui and Shen Jue were originally walking at the back, and looking at this situation, they didn't feel very comfortable.
Others still came voluntarily, but he was pressed by Xu with a "filial piety" hat, but this second room is not like a quiet place, everyone seems to be an uninvited guest.
Shen Jue couldn't stand it the most, his little face tightened, he pulled down Shen Rui's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you ask the elders in the second room to be safe, and the second brother Rui will go to the eldest brother's house with me?" ”
Although he knew that Shen Jue had good intentions, since the Xu family brought out a group of half-grown children, they would not let everyone leave at will. Shen Jue's proposal is just a fantasy.
The second wife seemed to have woken up, turned around and opened the curtain, and screamed at the hall: "Sister-in-law, Brother Luo's bones are not cold, you can't wait to bring people back, do you want people to take his place?" Is this your love for Luo? ”
Seeing that the third master's face was about to be bad again, without waiting for Xu to speak, the eldest master said angrily at the door: "Don't send the second wife back."
Seeing that the momentum was not right, the grandmothers dared to delay any longer, and took the second wife down half-delayed.
When the third master opened his eyes again, his breathing had smoothed out, and he smiled a little weakly.
Xu glared at him and said, "And a smile?" Don't scold for three days, go to the house to uncover the tiles. How old are you and you don't know how important you are? She made trouble with her, and her own master told me that he was your turn to attack? ”
The third master was reprimanded, and whispered: "Who told her to be disrespectful to her sister-in-law?"
When Xu Shi heard this, he said lightly: "Let's let her make trouble, I want to see what she wants to do?" ”
If it is said that he wore filial piety clothes to He's house to make trouble, it can also be said that it is the pain of losing a child, and he lost his mind for a while; Now that it has been 100 days since Shen Luo's death, Qiao's mother is still so noisy, whether it is to vent his dissatisfaction or something else, it will not be without reason.
When the eldest lord saw that his younger brother was better, he let go of his hanging heart, looked at the door curtain and said, "The nephews are still outside?" ”
Xu Shi nodded, looking at the third master, but he was a little undecided.
The third master hurriedly begged for mercy: "Sister-in-law, I don't dare to see my nephews come in anymore, and my sister-in-law still saves some face for my younger brother." ”
Xu snorted lightly: "It's good to remember that you are an uncle, and you will repeat the Heart Sutra every day in the future." Add two bowls of lotus seed core tea to him and give him a defeated heart" The latter sentence is said to the third wife.
After the Xu family finished arranging, Fang turned around and came out, stood under the corridor, beckoned the young people to come forward, and said in a low voice: "I was anxious just now, but I neglected a few nephews...... Speaking of this, he was a little uneasy, and explained in a low voice: "Your third uncle is not in good health, and he can't stand the joy and anger, so you are nephews, just take care of it more, and I will be grateful to the master." ”
Although everyone had different thoughts, they all responded in unison, and followed Xu into the house.
Looking at the seven teenagers in front of him, the eldest lord's face was warm, and the third master quickly searched among the crowds, and his eyes paused when he was on Shen Rui and Shen Jue, and finally fell on Shen Rui, his eyes shining.
The third wife stood next to the third master, looking at the young people, and her eyes fell on Shen Rui, the handkerchief in her hand was tightened, and she was excited and apprehensive. has been married for more than ten years, and if she had children, she should be so old. It's not that I haven't thought of an heir, but with Shen Luo here, the long house didn't mention the matter of the heir, so how could the couple mention it?
Since Shen Cang, Xu and his wife mentioned to the two of them that they wanted to arrange the younger generations of their relatives who were related to their family to be the heirs of the third room, the third wife often talked about the upcoming heirs with her husband, and they were eager to make someone pick them up as soon as possible.
But the other party is in filial piety, this is also the proper meaning of filial piety for the biological mother, knowing that the other party is a good child of filial piety, and the two of them are only more happy. If you don't even think about it, where will you think about it in the future.
The third wife looked forward to the heir entering Beijing, and looked forward to it for three whole years, although she didn't know that the other party was tall, short, fat and thin, but she could estimate her figure, and the four seasons clothes had been sewn a whole box.
The room has also been selected early, in the east wing of their front yard, the three rooms, have already been cleaned up, and the furnishings have been cleaned up one after another in recent years.
Xu Shi beckoned Shen Jue to step forward first, and said to Shen Cang and the others: "This is Brother Jue, the youngest son of Brother Zongfanghai's family. After that, he told Shen Jue about the identities of the three people.
When we met for the first time, kneeling was indispensable, and a mother-in-law had already placed a brocade mat on the ground.
When Shen Jue came into the hall, he was still resentful, but when he saw Shen Cang, he was immediately honest.
Shen Cang has lived in officialdom for a long time and has his own prestige, Shen Jue is not afraid, but feels that Shen Cang's thin and solemn appearance is a bit similar to his grandfather, so he naturally brings respect, and the meeting etiquette is also strong, and the tone is also close, but it reveals a bit of tiger head and liveliness.
Seeing this, Shen Cang couldn't help laughing, helped him out, shouted, and asked a few words.
The third master and the third wife knew that the second room and the Songjiang family, only the sect room was the closest, and they had seen Shen Jue's eldest brother Shen Ji, and they also had a good impression of Shen Jue.
Shen Zhu, the third brother of the third house, who immediately greeted him, although the elders were still loving on their faces, their eyes were a little complicated.
Shen Zhu is close to Shen Luo in age, and the two of them are tall, short, fat and thin. The pride of the young man between the eyebrows and eyes is also vaguely like the old man.
Shen Zhu noticed that the elders seemed to be less enthusiastic about him than Shen Jue, but he didn't take it to heart. The people of the Songjiang Shen clan, who don't know that the second room is not very close to the clan, only the closest to the clan.
It's just that the plan before me, is it really useful? The person is the second wife, and it seems that he is quite resistant to the matter of the heir, how can this be good?
Shen Zhu was still nervous in his heart, and it was already Shen Rui's turn to see him.
After the eldest lord called, he told him to kowtow to the third master and the third wife.
The third old man is okay, even if he is faintly excited, he knows the severity in the end, and he does not dare to be presumptuous in front of his brother and sister-in-law, so he hides his joy, and only smiles and nods: "Good boy, a good boy"
The third wife had red circles in her eyes, and she couldn't wait to pull Shen Rui down to her yard immediately.
Although Shen Rui, Shen Jue and others are of the same age, the third old man, the third wife and his wife still recognize which one is Shen Rui.
Among the teenagers, some are honest, some are smart, some are lively, some are gentle, some are generous, only Shen Rui is cold, like a bystander, quiet like a little adult, which makes people feel distressed.
Thinking about the experience and situation of Shen Rui that they had heard of, the husband and wife were full of distress, and they were eager to bring in the role of father and mother immediately and give this child more love.
Although Shen Rui felt that the eyes of the third master and the third wife looking at him were too hot, and the full of emotions in them seemed to overflow, the third wife was even more full of love, looking at herself as if she was looking at a little pitiful.
Where would he have thought that these two had already brought into the role of father and mother, just as the old people of the Sun family, who loved the house and Wu.
Because of the urgency of the Xu family after entering the courtyard, as well as the whispered instructions under the corridor, Shen Rui couldn't help but be a little curious about what kind of illness the third master was, which sounded like a taboo for heart disease.
After glancing at the third old man a few times, Shen Rui knew in his heart, and looked at this person whose lips were faintly blue and had a real heart attack.
Xu and the eldest master noticed the emotional changes of the third master and the third wife, and the husband and wife looked at each other, and their hearts were a little heavy......
