Chapter 269: The stepmother is embarrassed

Xiangru quickly brought up the red bean and barley soup.

Shen personally took the bowl and brought it to the kang table, and said softly, "This soup tastes okay, and the concubine drank a bowl, and it is not very sweet...... The lord also tastes it while it is hot. ”

Song Jinze nodded with a smile, took the soup spoon and drank it.

Shen accompanied him with a smile, pondering what Furong said before, while silently leaning down to take off Song Jinze's shoes and socks, put his legs flat on the hot kang, and took off his shoes and climbed onto the kang, kneeling beside Song Jinze to knead him.

Song Jinze enjoyed such tranquility and peace, and his expression couldn't help but feel a little more light.

I heard Shen ask softly, "The concubine is still thinking about today's weather, and the master will come back sooner...... But what's the delay? ”

Song Jinze, who was still smiling a moment ago, gradually faded his smile, and the spoon played with the hot soup in the bowl, but he didn't say anything.

Shen Shi was clear, but he only did something unknown, and the kneading action of his hands did not stop at all.

After a while, I heard Song Jinze sigh and said lightly, "It was the boss who came to look for me tonight...... I talked for a while. ”

Shen was stunned, raised his head and looked at him, before he smiled, "No wonder." "I won't ask any more.

Song Jinze put down the bowl and took her hand, "Why don't you ask me what's the matter?" ”

Shen Shi glared at him with disgust, and said, "If you should let the concubine know, the concubine will say it herself without asking the master...... Since the master doesn't want to say it, the concubine doesn't want to be suspicious! "Then you have to pull your hand.

Song Jinze grasped it and said with a smile, "Where is it annoying?" As he spoke, he pulled her into his arms and said softly, "Don't be busy yet, come and talk to me." ”

Shen made a gesture to break free twice, and then pouted and snuggled into his arms.

"It's not that I don't want you to know ......," Song Jinze said in a deep voice, "In fact, this matter is related to the house, and I also want to hear what you mean." ”

Shen Shi was slightly stunned, only then did he restrain his previous disapproval, and asked curiously, "I don't know what the master said?" ”

"The boss went to find me today...... Song Jinze held her arm and said slowly, "I said that I wanted to find an errand and go out to practice for a few years...... "Scholarly."

Shen was stunned for a moment, looked at Song Jinze in surprise, and stopped talking.

Song Jinze smiled and stroked his wife's cheeks, which were as white as porcelain, "The old husband and wife's are gone...... If you have anything to say, just say it. ”

Shen smiled embarrassedly, pondered for a moment, and then said softly, "Actually, the concubine doesn't know much about officialdom...... It's just that the concubine thinks that we are a champion in the family of our brothers, and we are from the Hanlin Academy, so we will stay in the capital, and we will have a lot to do in the future, so why do we have to go to the local area to suffer those hardships? Besides, even if he really wants to go out and open his eyes, he shouldn't be in a hurry at this moment, otherwise with his current qualifications, he wants to find a decent errand, and I'm afraidβ€”"

Her voice paused, and when she saw that Song Jinze really frowned, she immediately stopped talking and said with a smile, "But these are the views of concubine women, our family has a big idea when he is young, and he will have this plan, presumably after some careful consideration, he feels that this is more beneficial to his career." ”

It's okay if she doesn't say this, but as soon as she finished speaking, Song Jinze's face became more and more heavy and dripping.

"It's true to be thoughtful," he sneered, and said with a blushing face, "It's a pity that I didn't think about his future career at all." ”

Seeing Shen's puzzled expression, Song Jinze sighed, hugged her again, and said in a deep voice, "Why do you want to be a foreign officer?" ”

Shen frowned and thought for a while, before he suddenly realized, and couldn't help but exclaim, "It's not like you want to take Du's ......"

Song Jinze nodded disdainfully, and sneered, "I heard earlier that the girl of the Du family has a domineering temperament, willful and reckless, not a good match for men, I only think that she is a person with a heart to catch the wind and catch shadows, and now I see that she has been married to the door for less than two years, and she has instigated me to dare to disobey, which shows that she is really not a virtuous person." ”

Shen sat up from his arms, glanced at him quietly, and said aggrievedly, "Master, but you are blaming the concubine for being too hasty in this family business?" ”

Song Jinze hurriedly pulled her back and comforted, "You are so careful, you love to take everything on yourself...... I think their Du family is a scholarly family, and the eldest daughter-in-law is also a good one to look at on weekdays, who would have expected such a temperament? I know that you also chose a lot of choices for Zixun's family affairs at the beginning, and you worked hard...... I didn't mean to reproach you. Don't be cranky. ”

Shen glared at him with disgust, and then leaned into Song Jinze's arms again, "It's good that the master knows." She softened her tone, "Actually, when you think about it, Du's kid is also pitiful." experienced the pain of losing a child at a young age, and after conditioning for so long, his body has not improved, and there are some brothers who cherish it very much...... It doesn't necessarily mean that Duchen's character is not good...... Master's words are inevitably too heavy. ”

Song Jinze waved his hand disappreciably, "It's all at this time, and you can't cover it up for her." If she really understands the rules and knows how to advance and retreat, how could she hide for half a year by being sick, and now she has directly hid in the countryside! Song Jinze said coldly, "Don't you think I don't know - she is going to the countryside to recuperate, but did you ask you in advance about being a mother?" ”

Shen's expression froze, and after a while, he reluctantly smiled, and said gloomily, "Look at what the master said...... Du's going to the countryside to recuperate was the old lady's personal approval, so why did he have to ask the concubine again? She lowered her eyes and whispered, "Besides, the concubine body is separated from her by one layer, she is like this...... There is nothing wrong with that. ”

"Nonsense. You are their mother, whatever she is, how can she get past you? Song Jinze held Shen's hand, sighed and said, "It's hard for stepmother...... I also know that you will not be easy. A few children are not worried when they are young, and their mothers often ask for blame...... You never mentioned it, but I saw it. I've really wronged you all these years. ”

Shen's eyes suddenly became hot, and he hurriedly lowered his head and wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, choked up and smiled, "With the word master, no matter how much the concubine is wronged, she will have no complaints......" said and put his face on Song Jinze's chest, and was silent for a long time before he said tentatively, "Then this time follow my brother's business...... The lord is planning to ......."

Song Jinze held his wife in one hand and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly with the other, "Actually, it doesn't hurt to let him go out to practice for a few years...... I don't want to be tortured, but I'm afraid that this stinky boy will never know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is. He paused, "As for Du's ...... Do you think it's feasible to get her to work with her? ”
