"It's okay Sister Xiuhua, I know it in my heart." Shen Shiliu said, it is better to have a flat attitude about this matter now, in case Du Xuanmo is really wolf-hearted in the future, then she will not be too pitiful in front of people.

Hong Xiuhua saw that Shen Shiliu was reluctant to mention it, and she also had some understanding in her heart, Shen Shimei must be uneasy in her heart, after all, if Shen Shu didn't marry her in the end, she might kill people directly.

In the evening, Shen Pomegranate went to deliver food to Du Niangzi, and boiled new loquat water, and when she went home again, it was already the middle of the moon.

"Pomegranate, go to bed early, I'm going to be tired for a day tomorrow." Shen Shu saw that Shen Pomegranate was working so hard, even if he was healthy, he was afraid that Shen Pomegranate would not be able to survive and fall ill.

"I know, brother should go to bed early." Shen Pomegranate replied.

Lying on the bed, Shen Shiliu felt that he was really tired, compared to the work like cattle and horses, the tiredness made people more haggard. Du Niangzi's attitude changed at night, and she was cautious with her, as if she had recognized that Du Xuanmo would be sorry for her.

Shen Pomegranate slept all night, and went out to buy early in the morning, Shen Shu put the broth on the table, and the business continued every day.

Du Niangzi came, she came by herself in the morning these days, and seeing that Shen Shu was busy, she found a place to sit down first.

Shen Shu sent away a wave of guests who bought broth, and then went to the stove room to light the fire, waiting for Shen Pomegranate to come back.

Du Niangzi sat alone, carefully looking at this small restaurant, if it was put in the past, Du Niangzi definitely felt that it was impossible to open a restaurant, so much silver was thrown into it, she didn't dare to think about it. I used to admire Shen Shimei's little girl for having such ability, but now, it's different. Her son is now in three yuan, he must be a big official, what is the money at that time? Power is in hand, and money can't buy it.

Shen Shimei came back from the market and asked Shen Shu to come over to help move things, and she pulled a lot of things back by herself.

"Auntie is here, I'll make breakfast right away." Today happened to be the day of the market, and it was inconvenient for her to walk in the crowd with the car, and she came back a little late.

Du Niangzi nodded: "Don't worry." It's just that this tone of love is ignored, which makes Shen Shimei smell a little taste.

Shen Shimei didn't say anything, he went to the back kitchen to make breakfast after moving things, Shen Shu had already burned the stove before, there was hot water from the county, and the rice grain was in the pot, so he waited for the porridge to be ready.

After a busy morning, Shen Pomegranate and a bowl of porridge, Du Niangzi drank a bowl of porridge, ate two corn tortillas, and a bowl of spinach soup.

Shen Shu hurried to the school after breakfast, Du Niangzi saw Shen Shu go to the school, and said: "How difficult is it to study, my son has been studying hard since he was a child, and he is more attentive than his father!" ”

Shen Shiliu didn't say anything when he heard this, cleaned up the table and went to the kitchen to prepare the main ingredients and side dishes to welcome the new day's full diners.

Du Niangzi was full of food and drink, and went out of the door of the restaurant, there were many familiar faces on the road, and when she saw Du Niangzi, she had to go up to congratulate her, and she knew that Du Xuanmo was now the champion, and she had a bright future in the future, and she also wanted to follow the relationship.

"I said a long time ago that my sister-in-law's son is a good one, how good it is now, I took the top prize in the exam, and I will become a big official in the future, sister-in-law, you are the lady of the fate, and the scenery is beautiful!" The women are all talking about these things together, flattering, one or two sentences Du Niangzi doesn't care, but after ten or eight sentences, Du Niangzi is also going to float.

"Sister-in-law, hasn't your Xuanmo said kiss yet, my mother's family has a niece who has read books and looks smart, do you want to see it?" Woman A began to sell her daughter.

When Woman B heard this, she hurriedly said: "Oh, pull it down quickly, isn't your niece going to marry into a merchant's family, and she doesn't look smart, how can she be worthy of someone else's son!" When people become officials in the future, some of them are the daughters of official eunuchs who are willing to marry, and you should keep your niece for yourself! ”

Women A, B, C and Ding got together and gossiped, but Du Niangzi listened to it, what kind of golden branches and jade leaves did her son marry in the future? No matter how good Shen Shimei is, not to mention his appearance, his background is really low, and he is really not worthy of the son of the dragon and phoenix among his people!

"You guys talk first, I'll go home first!" Du Niangzi didn't want to talk more to these market women, so she went home first, she had more important things to think about.

When Du Niangzi returned home, she sat alone and thought about how she could draw a line with Shen Pomegranate.

If she told Shen Shiliu the truth directly, Shen Shiliu would definitely not be happy, the Shen family had taken care of her, although she was also sorry, but she couldn't take care of it at this time. But she was also afraid that Du Xuanmo would be poked in the back in the future, saying that their Du family was ungrateful, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, she had to be like a way, not only to let Shen Pomegranate and their family draw a clear line, but also to make Du Xuanmo not fall into the handle.

Du Niangzi thought about it all night, her eyes didn't close, and after thinking about it, she finally thought of a way to get the best of both worlds when it was almost dawn.

Early in the morning, Shen Shimei had just made breakfast, and Du Niangzi arrived, and Shen Shimei hurriedly beckoned Du Niangzi to sit down.

"Aunt sit down and make petal porridge, the fresh gardenia that my mother stepped on from the mountains yesterday is very warm and nourishing!" Shen Pomegranate said and served a bowl to Du Niangzi.

It was the first time for Du Niangzi to drink such petal porridge, so she asked: "Can these petals clear the lungs and relieve cough?" ”

"Yes, the countrymen know a little, I specially asked my mother to go to the back mountain to pick it, just so that my aunt can drink it. These days, my aunt's cough seems to have improved a lot, the loquat leaves are getting older and older now, and the loquat fruit still has a few days to come down, so it is best to use gardenia to make porridge. After Shen Shimei finished speaking, he didn't forget to say: "Auntie, let's eat it first, boil it with rock sugar to ensure that it is delicious." ”

Du Niangzi was sad, to be honest, she also felt that she was not a person, Shen Pomegranate was really good, she took care of her like this, she thought about her in everything, such meticulousness, even if she was a daughter, she might not be able to do it. But......

But Shen Pomegranate is not her daughter after all, but Du Xuanmo is really her own son, in front of Shen Pomegranate and her own son, she naturally wants to choose her own son!

Du Niangzi wanted to speak and stopped: "Pomegranate ......"

At this time, Shen Shu also came out of the back kitchen and changed into a clean scholar's robe.

"I can smell the sweetness from afar!" Shen Shu sat down and said, then picked up the bowl and ate.

Du Niangzi's words were stuck in her throat and didn't say it.

Shen Shiliu noticed it, and didn't say anything, waiting for Shen Shu to finish eating, and said, "Come back early at noon, Sister Xiuhua will also come today." ”

"Hmm." Although Shen Shu responded, his brows were tightened, and his eyes looked at Du Niangzi from time to time.

"Let's go, this is for Mr. Song, just say it's over!" Shen Shiliu was carrying a smoked duck in her hand, usually meat and pork, and she was afraid that Mr. Song would get tired of eating crookedly.

Shen Shu's face was entangled, he just saw that it was definitely not a good thing for Du Niangzi to come today.

"Let's go, don't be late, be careful that Mr. Song hits your palm!" Shen Shi Pomegranate pushed Shen Shu out with a smile, even if Shen Shu stopped Du Niangzi today and didn't say anything, but the problem still exists, and one day he will have to make it clear on the table.

After sending away the reluctant Shen Shu, Shen Shimei sat down and continued to eat her own porridge, but such a sweet porridge was really tasteless when she ate it in her mouth, and she had worked hard before.

"Pomegranate......" Du Niangzi saw that Shen Shu was gone, and the Shen family and his wife had not yet come, so she wanted to say it first, so as not to make a fuss even more unpleasant for a while.

"Actually, I also know in my heart that if my aunt has something to say, just say it." Shen Shiliu put down the dishes and chopsticks, and the atmosphere on the table suddenly became tense.

Du Niangzi saw that Shen Shimei had the intention of jumping open the skylight, so she was no longer supportive.

"Pomegranate, aunt, I know your good in my heart, you have helped Xuanmo a lot, and you have taken care of me very much, so I ......" Du Niangzi said this, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "So I think, since this is the case, it is better for us to recognize the family, and it is not necessary for a man to marry a woman to be considered a parent, right?" ”

"So what does aunt mean ......?" Shen Shiliu looked at Du Niangzi and asked.

"I mean...... Accept you as a goddaughter, and when the time comes, you will become Xuanmo's godsister, and you will definitely have a better life in the future! Du Niangzi said.

Shen Shiliu looked at Du Niangzi, listening to Du Niangzi's words, the first thought in his heart was not that Du Niangzi was talking nonsense to her, but that Du Niangzi's eyes were black, and she had thought of such a broken idea after not sleeping all night.

Looking at Shen Shiliu looking at herself, Du Niangzi felt a little furious in her heart, she was really afraid that Shen Shiliu would stand up and beat her in the next second.

Shen Shiliu said for a long time: "Auntie, you don't need to recognize your relatives, I know what my aunt is afraid of, I borrowed Brother Du's money at the beginning, and then took care of my aunt, not to occupy a position, and threaten Brother Du in the future." Today, my aunt and I will also say what we should say, I will not rely on your Du family because I have a little favor to your mother and son, and force Brother Du to marry me, let alone be a sister. I'm here today, and when Brother Du comes back, even if he really doesn't marry me, it's nothing, just pay back the money he owes. ”

Shen Shiliu's words made Du Niangzi embarrassed, and said: "When my son comes back, he must compensate you well, you are a good girl, and you will definitely marry a good family in the future." As Xuanmo's godsister, no one will bully ......"

"Aunt, don't say anything like this in the future, I have an elder brother at home, and I don't want to find another one. As for taking care of my aunt, I also promised Brother Du at the beginning, and everything will be said after Brother Du comes back, and I will not be dishonest at that time. Shen Shiliu finished cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, this morning's meal, she was really choked and panicked, and she bothered to cook so much in vain.
