"It's just past the age of the sixtieth year, and now it can be said that the body is tough and the spirit is strong, where can I look old?" Shen Guangyao said: "If you talk about it, I am afraid that none of the patriarchs of the several big surname clans around here are younger than you. ”

What Shen Guangyao said was the truth, the patriarchs of all ethnic groups were elected by those with high seniority, long age, and both moral and prestige, and there was really no one who could compare with Shen Yuantang.

Shen Yuantang shook his head and said: "The sixtieth year is the age of ancient rarity, as the saying goes, life is rare for seventy years, and there are very few people who can live to be seventy years old, and I am only a few years away from that age, isn't this time old." ”

"What the patriarch said is not right, now is the year of peace, the harvest is good, the days are rich, the old people in each family are now living bigger and bigger, just in our Shen family, carefully calculated, there are dozens of old people over seventy, where can we say that life is rare for seventy years? This is obviously too common. I look at the patriarch's body and bones, let alone seventy years old, eighty-nine and one hundred hundred, it's not a problem. Shen Guangyao said with a smile.

The meaning of this sycophant is obvious.

Shen Yuantang's gloomy face was much brighter at this time, but when he thought of what had happened recently, he couldn't help but feel a little upset.

Shen Guangyao naturally knew Shen Yuantang's thoughts, but he also knew that Shen Yuantang was not such a narrow-minded person in the past.

What makes Shen Yuantang so angry is mainly the sentence in the mouth of the county commander, if it affects Lord Shen, it will not be good.

Lord Shen in the mouth of the county commander is Shen Yuantang's youngest son, who has been newly promoted to the position of Zhizhou, and can be said to be Shen Yuantang's most promising son and Shen Yuantang's most beloved son.

As a parent, naturally they don't want to bring the slightest disturbance to their children, but also because they care, they are chaotic, messing up their own position, and adding endless pressure to themselves.

Shen Yuantang treats him like a grandson, and it can even be said that he is much closer than his grandson, and now that Shen Yuantang is a little older, he is still worried about these things at this time, Shen Guangyao thinks about it, and he feels that it is not a taste.

But this is a helpless thing, who let this matter be related to the Shaoqing of the Zhengsipin Dali Temple, the official level can crush people to death, not to mention that it is so much higher, where is there a reason not to be afraid?

Speaking of which, the surnamed Lu has to be blamed for this, if it weren't for his swaggering in the market, how could the scoundrels of Shen Futian's family target him, and then how could such a long list of things happen, causing Shen Yuantang to be so entangled.

A trace of anger quickly passed through Shen Guangyao's heart, but soon such thoughts were suppressed by his own reason.

When you're angry, you're confused, which is unacceptable.

Shen Guangyao shook his head desperately, suppressed those "bold" and absurd thoughts, blinked slightly, and said: "People are not saints and sages, not to mention that this matter is not the fault of the patriarch at all, Lord Lu looks at the people and has a pleasant face, it is not like a faint official who indiscriminately condemns crimes, the patriarch has done everything he should do, and if he has the opportunity to return to him, then Lord Lu is, he can understand the good intentions of the patriarch." ”

"Although we don't know where Lord Lu is at this time, Shen Xiangmiao looks like she has a close relationship with Lord Lu, and it is okay to inquire a little or let Xiangmiao tell her when the time comes, so the patriarch doesn't have to worry so much." Shen Guangyao comforted him.

Then he grinned and said: "I heard that there is a new food in the town these days, colorful rice balls, different colors are very good-looking, I heard that they are delicious, and there are rice balls that can be eaten at any time, which are also rare and tight." ”

Shen Yuantang has a lot of experience in the end, and he can know the big truth, but he understands it, but the hurdle in his heart is not good, and now he feels a lot more relaxed when he listens to Shen Guangyao's enlightenment, and now he sees Shen Guangyao sparing no effort to make him happy, and he naturally has no reason to go down anymore.

smacked his lips even according to what Shen Guangyao said, and said: "Tangyuan, sweet and soft, slimy to eat, not good, it is said that the food still has to be made of fragrant seedlings or something, it is delicious to eat, and it is suitable for wine." ”

Since they all said these words, it means that Shen Yuantang felt a lot relieved in his heart, Shen Guangyao suddenly put his mind at ease, and said with a smile: "This is not difficult, Xiangmiao is now open normally in the town's lo-mei shop, and it is also made every day, the patriarch wants to eat it, I will buy it at any time." ”

"It's just this wine,......" Shen Guangyao laughed: "But I can't drink it anymore, if I drink it again, I won't buy you your favorite crispy fish and silkworm potatoes next time." ”

He talked like he was playing with a child.

Shen Yuantang suddenly straightened his face: "You talk a lot." ”

Shen Guangyao pursed his lips and laughed.

The matter of Shen Futian's family soon reached the ears of Shen Xiangmiao and others.

Shen Xiangmiao was not shocked by this, and did not even say a word, but the soft-hearted Lu Shi sighed, sighed for a sentence or two, and then stopped mentioning it.

After all, this matter is no wonder to others, it is purely self-inflicted.

Shen Fuhai chatted with Zhang for a while, and then he didn't want to mention it again.

However, Shen Shuntong and Yang, after hearing about this, they have been depressed, and after a day or two of hard work, they actually looked much older.

When a cadre sees it in his heart, it is naturally not a taste in his heart.

They all wanted to open their mouths to persuade the two old men to say a few words, but after thinking about it, they still felt that persuasion was useless, and they were afraid that it would make the two old men sad.

After all, Shen Shuntong and the Yang family have also experienced a lot of ups and downs, and they are more knowledgeable and reasonable, and they naturally know that Shen Futian and Xu themselves are all to blame for this matter, and they can't complain about others, but they also know that the two of them deserve it, and it is fortunate that they can save their lives.

But it's one thing to understand the truth, but whether you can accept it in your heart is another thing.

This can be said to be unspeakable, unpersuadable, only in the past few years, this chasm and cracks can be gradually filled into flat ground.

No one spoke out to persuade this matter, and they did not say a word about it, but the two families coincidentally did something similar.

Today, the Lu family invited the second elder to have dinner at home, and by the way, he said that he was too busy, and asked the second elder to help him do some odd jobs or something, so that the second elder was not easy to refuse, and after he got busy, he didn't have the heart to think about other things.

Ming'er, Shen Fuhai took the second elder away, saying that the Zhang family went back to his parents' house, and he didn't care about the mess at home, and he wanted to eat the stewed noodles made by the Yang family himself.
