Chapter 117: The heir of the Sheng family
Sheng Jinxu nodded as if he didn't understand, lay on the old lady's knees, patted his chest and abdomen, and said slowly: "Grandmother, my mother said that I am already a little man, and when I grow up, I want to help my mother do business, and don't let my mother go out early and return late every day so hard." ”
The old lady giggled, rubbed Sheng Jinxu's hair, and couldn't put it down.
After coming to the Sheng family for a few months, Sheng Jinxu is no longer the black and thin wild boy he used to be, he has become white and clean, with flesh on his face, soft and cute.
During the Chinese New Year this year, Granny Jiang also learned the newly popular style and made a horse coat for him, the emerald green silk thread lined his fair complexion, and a pair of black grape-like eyes became brighter and brighter.
Sheng Jinxu played in front of the old lady for a while, and Sheng Yanqing beckoned: "Xu'er, come to the second uncle, tell the second uncle, have you read and practiced calligraphy in the past two days?" ”
Sheng Jinxu walked over as he said, and stood in front of Sheng Yanqing in a proper manner. In his mind, his mother and grandmother can be coquettish, and this second uncle is a role model.
Sheng Yanqing was amused by his serious appearance, and reached out to scratch his nose.
The maid brought up the rice balls, and the round rice balls were served in a small porcelain bowl, one per person.
It is a custom to eat rice balls on the New Year, whether you are hungry or not, you have to be interesting.
The first bowl was naturally served to the old lady, and the old lady scooped a mouthful of soup with a spoon, which was considered to have been eaten.
She looked up at the people at the table, raised her hand and pointed in Sheng Yanqing's direction, "Bring a bowl to the second young master." ”
Everyone at the table looked at each other, with a look of surprise on their faces, the second bowl of rice balls was originally intended to be given to the elders of the family, but this time, the old lady actually spared the eldest lady and the second lady, and directly served it to Sheng Yanqing, is this hinting at anything.
Sheng Yanqing was a little flattered, and when the maid brought over the tray, he stood up politely.
A few people speculated wildly, and then heard the old lady continue: "In the past six months, the Sheng family's business has all pointed to Yanqing, and this second bowl of rice balls should be given to meritorious officials." You are the heir of the Sheng family, and you can afford this bowl of rice balls. ”
The three words heir came out of the old lady's mouth, and the eldest lady and the second lady changed color in unison.
They never thought that Sheng Yanqing was actually the heir in the old lady's heart.
The eldest lady almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth, and the smile on the second lady's face completely collapsed, and she sat on the side with her head bowed.
The old lady didn't seem to notice it, and gave the third bowl of rice balls to Shen Yu, and then the second lady, the eldest lady, Sheng Yanwei and others.
With Sheng Yanqing's unexpected beginning, everything from then on will not be very eye-catching.
Thinking about it, the old lady is also a clear reward and punishment, this year, especially after Sheng Yanming's death, the eldest lady has done the most foolish things. And the second lady's small actions in private, the old lady didn't say it, but she knew it in her heart.
Shen Yu and Sheng Yanqing exchanged glances, in order to ease the atmosphere, Shen Yu stood up and said, raised her glass and said: "Grandmother, this is the first year that the granddaughter-in-law has spent in the Sheng family, and she has been taken care of by the Sheng family a lot in the past year. ”
Shen Yu raised her head and dried it up, and the old lady took a sip lightly, which was considered to have been drunk.
The topic shifted to business, and Sheng Yanqing said a few interesting things she encountered while doing business, which made the old lady smile.
The eldest lady and the second lady didn't want to be cold anymore, and when they came back to their senses, they would occasionally echo a few words.
No one noticed, Sheng Yanwei drank a full glass of wine and quietly left the seat.
Xu Xinyue sat beside him, just glanced at him lightly, and didn't bother to ask.
After nightfall, the temperature plummeted, and when he came out of the warm pavilion, Sheng Yanwei couldn't help but shiver.
The servant behind him brought a cloak and was rudely pushed away by him.
Sheng Yanwei kicked the servant's feet and said viciously: 'Why, even one of your subordinates came to pity me? Didn't you all hear it, the heir of the Sheng family is Sheng Yanqing, if you don't go to please him, what are you doing with one or two people still surrounding me? ’
The servant sat down on the cold stone bricks, bowing his head and not daring to speak.
Sheng Yanwei was in a panic, and when he came out of the warm pavilion, he walked all the way, habitually walked out of the gate, and walked in the familiar direction on the street.
Xie Changli was on duty at the door, and when he saw Sheng Yanwei's drunken appearance, he shouted, "Third master, it's cold at night, you don't keep the New Year in Heshoutang, where are you going?" ”
Sheng Yanwei waved his hand and walked faster.
Xie Changli shook his head, rubbed his hands and entered the door.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone was celebrating the New Year at home, the street was empty, Sheng Yanwei walked and walked, and saw the *** bright plaque, where the lights were still on.
It was full of women who had been forced to sell their lives here, and no one returned home or celebrated the New Year.
It's just that there are no guests here on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the girls of *** are wilting, and they get together to play mahjong.
Sheng Yanwei drunkenly went up to the second floor and slammed open the door of a house at the end of the stairs.
A woman in a red cheongsam was napping on the couch, and when she saw Sheng Yanwei enter the door, she supported her head and raised her hand to hook her finger at him.
The woman's willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, the corners of her eyes fly up, her posture is graceful, and her eyebrows are full of charm.
Sheng Yanwei stumbled to the bed and drank two glasses of wine before he opened his mouth drunkenly and poured out the grievances in his heart.
"Ruoxue, you say that I am not a loss, I am also a descendant of the Sheng family, why can he take the limelight with a concubine. If the old lady had left the business to me, I would not have done any worse than him. But this old immortal knows that she is eccentric to the big house, and she would rather promote a concubine than look at me! ”
"Today it was said that it was the Sheng family's family banquet, and the old immortal's eyes were all big houses, and he was out of the limelight. In this case, why bother to toss the people in our second room and be embarrassed! ”
When Sheng Yanwei said in his mouth, he naturally referred to the second master of the Sheng family.
Ruoxue and Sheng Yanwei are familiar with each other, and she also knows a little about the situation of the Sheng family, she wrapped her fingers around a strand of hair around her ear, and sighed like an orchid, "Third master, if you want me to say, the old lady's heart is originally biased." Everyone has to plan for themselves, and if it is a little later, the huge family business of the Sheng family will fall into the hands of others. ”
Sheng Yanwei lay on Ruoxue's lap, looking at the peak-like plumpness on her chest, squinting and saying, "How can I not be in a hurry......"
Ruoxue's voice was charming, "Third master, you promised me to redeem yourself for me and let me be the young grandmother of the Sheng family with infinite scenery." Everyone is yours, your body is yours, your heart is yours, you have to talk. ”
Sheng Yanwei turned over, pressed Ruoxue under him, and said, "Naturally, what I say is natural." ”
