Chapter 161: Three Poor Relatives
Old Lady Wang looked at the 'three poor relatives' impatiently, Shen Shuang also understood the thoughts of these two people, and knew that it was not good to drive them away, so she could only play a little prestige to find a sense of existence.
Hearing Mrs. Wang's disgusting words, Old Man Shen's face changed, and Shen Musheng was naturally not easy to speak, and for a while, the atmosphere was very embarrassing.
Old man Wang really doesn't want to see the Shen family, but his son-in-law is filial, if he drives people away today, it will only cause his daughter and son-in-law to quarrel, he thought around and spoke slowly.
"In-laws, Shui Sheng should be resting at this time, if you want to go, go over and have a look."
Old Man Wang's extraneous meaning, Shen Shuang understood, Old Man Shen also understood, and only let Old Man Shen go in alone, as for Shen Musheng and Shen Shuang, they were waiting outside.
Shen Shuang really didn't want to see her third uncle, but the feeling of being turned away was really bad.
She didn't want to cause trouble, she just wanted to take her father away, and she was also an interesting person, but she saw a man who looked a little similar to her father, but was younger, just opened the curtain and walked out, holding a child in his arms, looking immature and cute, and looking about the same age as Xiaoshan.
Shen Shuisheng opened the curtain and walked out while looking at the son he was holding in his arms, "Dad, Laibao has woken up, and he wants to come out to play, you ......"
When he walked out and looked up, he saw three people standing in the store, and he said in surprise, "Dad?" Big brother, why are you here? β
The faces of Old Man Wang and Old Lady Wang suddenly changed three hundred and sixty degrees, and the former looked at his son-in-law with a smile, "Shui Sheng, your father and your eldest brother are here to sell things in the town, by the way, come to see you, have you finished reading?" Lead your father and them into the house and sit down, and the treasure will be handed over to your mother. β
Shen Laibao, who was not yet six years old, saw Old Man Shen, although he had already recognized people, but at this time, he directly regarded him as a stranger, but turned his head to look at Old Man Wang and his wife, and called crisply, "Grandfather, grandmother, hold Grandpa." β
Old man Shen also loves this youngest grandson, he usually can't see him, he raises him so well, but he hasn't called him a few times, he looks very greedy at this time.
When Mrs. Wang saw that Old Man Shen was staring at her grandson, she deliberately covered his gaze with her body, Shen Shuang was clearly disappointed when she saw her father, and felt that her third aunt's maiden family was probably the best, but she understood why she hadn't seen her third uncle come home in the past few months.
Shen Shuisheng handed his son to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and politely thanked them, and then turned his eyes to Shen Shuang, a little curious, "Dad, big brother, this is Xiaoshuang, right?" β
Shen Shuang saw her third uncle talking, she was indeed gentle, like a polite reader, as for her character, it was not yet known, but she didn't show a disgusted expression towards her, which was a good sign.
Shen Musheng happily introduced his daughter, "Yes, this is Xiaoshuang." Xiaoshuang, this is your third uncle, this is the first time you have seen your third uncle. β
"Third uncle."
Shen Shuisheng nodded, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." β
Although I heard Wan Shi say that this niece loves to cause trouble at home, and I also heard my little sister complain that there is an extra niece in the family who can make the old Shen family poor, but Shen Shuisheng did not have a preconceived view of Shen Shuang, although he felt that she was very fat, but it was not as exaggerated as the old lady and sister said.
In fact, a few months ago, Shen Shuang was indeed very fat, and after several months of hard work, her weight loss had already been effective, but as the days passed, the family did not notice it obviously, unless it was someone who hadn't seen her for a long time and could feel it.
Because Shen Shui was born, he directly welcomed Old Man Shen and Shen Musheng's father and daughter into the courtyard, and Shen Shuang clearly saw Old Man Wang and Old Lady Wang in the shop When they saw her third uncle turn around, their faces showed a look of disgust.
Shen Shuang frowned slightly, but she could probably imagine that her third uncle's status in this Wang family should be okay.
Shen Shuisheng seemed to be a little happy, and as soon as he entered the backyard, he called happily, "Bao Niang, Lotus, Dad and Big Brother are here." β
Recently, the weather has begun to slowly heat up, and at this time Wang is staring at the lotus embroidered handkerchief in the house, she is holding a fan in her hand, fanning slowly, hearing the sound outside, frowning slightly.
The lotus flower, who is only eleven years old, looks very delicate, but her face, which looks very similar to the Wang family, also showed a disgusted expression, "Mother, it's my grandfather and uncle who are here, why is my father so happy?" β
Wang was impetuous, put down the fan, and said angrily, "You still don't know your father's temperament?" I was thinking about the mud-legged family members in Xishan Village all day long, and in the morning I was still talking about going home to see if I could be happy. Forget it, I'll go out and have a look, you just stay and embroider the handkerchief, don't go out. β
Shen Lotus nodded and said disapprerovingly, "I won't go out." β
Wang shook his fan and was about to walk out of the door, when he suddenly remembered something, turned around and told his daughter, "I just went to the street today to buy a lot of bacon and came back, it is estimated that your father will bring it back to your father and them in a while, and when I go out, you will go to the kitchen to hide the bacon, otherwise your grandmother will be unhappy." β
"Mother, I know, I'll go hide it." As she spoke, Shen Lotus put down the handkerchief in her hand and wanted to hide the bacon.
Outside the courtyard, Shen Shuisheng saw that the lady didn't come out, so he had to lead the three of them into the house and sit down.
"Dad, you and the eldest brother sit down first, I'll go and see what Bao Niang is doing, maybe staring at the lotus embroidered veil, I'll let them come and see you."
"Okay, let's go."
Old man Shen loves this little son the most, although he has just been treated coldly outside, he doesn't care about it at this time.
Shen Shuang can see that her father usually doesn't like to laugh much, but he was disgusted just now, and he is still laughing so happily at this time, it is enough to see that he doesn't care about those at all, or that he loves his son.
Shen Shuang sat down, and Old Man Shen also smiled and said, "Xiaoshuang, this is your third uncle's house, your third uncle is a scholar, although he usually doesn't go home much, and reading is also very hard." By the way, your third uncle will soon be admitted to Xiucai, and if he can be admitted to Xiucai at that time, it will be a matter of our old Shen family's glorious lintel. β
Shen Shuang smiled and nodded, she really didn't have much interest in knowing this, she turned her head to look at her father, it seemed a little restrained, but also, the tables and chairs here looked pretty good.
In the yard.
As soon as Wang came out, he saw his man rushing into the house excitedly, "Xianggong? β
"Bao Niang, where's the lotus? Dad and eldest brother are here, and Xiaoshuang, you come and meet. β
Lotus hurriedly stopped her steps, she didn't want to see these poor relatives, she wanted to come to the door every day to ask for things, she pouted and didn't move.
"The lotus is embroidering a veil, you can't be distracted, I'll go with you to see my father and eldest brother."
Shen Shuisheng thought that it was rare for his daughter to calm down and embroider a handkerchief, so he also nodded, "It's done." β
"By the way, Bao Niang, didn't you buy a few knives of bacon in the morning? After a while, I will give two knives to my father to take home, and the fresh watermelons I bought from Hu Shang yesterday, and I will also give a few to my father to take home. β
Wang's face was a little stiff, but naturally he would not refute him, so he nodded and spoke softly, "Okay, when my father and eldest brother are leaving, I will pretend to be together and let them take them back." β
When Wang walked into the house, she saw Old Man Shen sitting in the main seat where her father and mother usually sit, and the seat was usually cushioned, and when she saw Old Man Shen sitting on it, she felt that it was not very clean, and she thought that she would have to ask the mother-in-law who helped wash the clothes to wash the mat for a while, and if she couldn't wash it, she would throw it away.
Shen Shuang read Wang's expression thoroughly, and saw the disgusted expression on her face, although it was not very obvious, she also knew that she planned to act.
I had already seen the faces of Old Man Wang and Old Lady Wang just now, so seeing the reaction of her three aunts at this time, Shen Shuang was not surprised at all, no wonder her father seemed a little restrained just now, it is estimated that he was disliked before.
Old man Shen actually values Wang's daughter-in-law who lives in the town very much, unlike the Xu family and Xiao Wan's family, they are both daughters of crop families who are digging in the field, but they are the daughters of the rice shop boss, the pearl in her palm, good-looking, soft-spoken, and the grandchildren she gave birth to are also good-looking and painful, he naturally thinks a little more highly of her, even if he knows that he is not treated by the Wang family, he doesn't care.
Seeing the Wang family coming, Old Man Shen stood up and glanced behind her a few times, "The third daughter-in-law is here, where is the lotus?" Why didn't the lotus flower come? I just saw Noble outside following his grandmother, and I'll go see him later. β
Wang walked patiently in front of Old Man Shen and greeted Old Man Shen and Shen Musheng.
Wang's faΓ§ade is very good, not leaking, and there is a faint smile on his face.
"Dad, big brother, the lotus flower is embroidering a veil, I will let her embroider it before it comes out. On such a sunny day, why did my father and eldest brother come out? But what are you going to buy in town? Let's drink some water first. β
As she spoke, she stepped forward to pour tea for Old Man Shen and Shen Musheng.
Shen Shuang sat next to Shen Musheng, and when he saw his wife pouring tea, Shen Shuisheng looked at Shen Shuang and hurriedly introduced his wife.
"Bao Niang, this is the eldest brother and sister-in-law's daughter Xiaoshuang, who mentioned it to us before by my mother and Chun Tao."
Wang Shi was holding a teapot in his hand at this time, turned his head to look at Shen Shuang, and when he saw it, he pretended to cover his mouth with a handkerchief, as if he felt that it was a bit rude to show such an expression, and he also showed a little apology.
"This is the girl who was swapped with Forsythia, she looks really blessed, eldest brother, I heard that my mother found a good family for her, I don't know if it's done? I'm still waiting to go back and drink the wine. β
Shen Shuang, who was innocent and lying on the gun, scolded the Wang family who deliberately found fault in his heart, this person has nothing to do, right, has he found a good family? How long ago did that have to be? When the old things are brought up again, I don't feel good at first glance.
Shen Shuang is not a vegetarian, regardless of the reaction of her father, her father and the third uncle, she smiled directly, "I have been back in Xishan Village for a few months, but it is the first time I have seen the third aunt, I have long heard my grandmother say that the third uncle is blessed and married the beautiful lady of the third aunt, but the third aunt doesn't seem to know much about my affairs, and my grandmother discussed the marriage for me, which was a few days ago." Although the third aunt and the third uncle don't go home much, they should often go home to visit their grandmother, my grandmother has been frightened these days, she has lost a lot of weight, and she still talks about the third uncle all day long. β
