Chapter 147: Returning Home
Han Shuliang wanted to go back to Anyang County to prepare for the transportation of grain, but after Shen Shiliu knew about it, he was a little absent-minded. Shen Pomegranate has been away from home for almost a year and is very homesick.
Du Xuanmo saw Shen Pomegranate like this, so he directly said that he wanted to take Shen Pomegranate back to visit relatives.
"Really?" Shen Shiliu was very happy, Du Xuanmo could understand her thoughts, and specially took leave to accompany her.
Du Xuanmo nodded: "Han Shuliang will often go back and forth between the two places in the future, and he will have the opportunity to go home in the future." ”
Shen Shiliu nodded, and hurriedly went to find Zheng Erzhu, now the store can't leave, this time she will go first, and Zheng Erzhu will go back next time!
As soon as Zheng Erzhu heard that he had the opportunity to go home, he was naturally happy: "When you go back, you can also go to my house and say that I will go back next time!" ”
"Okay!" Shen Shiliu agreed, but remembered something else.
"Brother Erzhu, last time my mother wrote to me that Brother Dazhu had finished the marriage, you ......" Zheng Erzhu didn't make any movement now.
Zheng Erzhu was speechless: "Don't worry about my mother, my daughter-in-law will have it!" ”
Shen Shiliu pondered that it was time for Zheng Erzhu to marry Zhang Luo, and her uncle and aunt were not in front of her, so she had to take care of it.
"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely let you hug your daughter-in-law!" Shen Shiliu played a package ticket.
Zheng Erzhu smiled: "Okay, people are big ghosts!" "I say that I am also a brother, so I look at Shen Pomegranate as if he is his aunt, and his old appearance has even surpassed his seniority!
Shen Shiliu happily packed her luggage, and there were a lot of things she wanted to bring back to her hometown, and there were a lot of things in Kyoto City, and she was going to take them all back. and the newborn little nephew, I have to bring some greeting gifts back.
Du Xuanmo explained everything at home to Fushun, Shen Shiliu explained everything about the restaurant to Zheng Erzhu, Wen Huai was able to support the back kitchen alone, there was nothing to worry about, and then the two embarked on the journey back to their hometown.
The two followed Han Shuliang together, and when they arrived in Anyang County, Han Shuliang went to the village first, and Shen Shiliu and Du Xuanmo returned to Shen's house.
I haven't been home for a long time, Shen Shimei felt sour everywhere he went, and when he arrived at the restaurant, he saw Zheng Shi busy wiping the table.
"Mother!" Shen Shiliu shouted, Zheng Shi hurriedly turned around, and saw that it was really Shen Shimei, and the rag in his hand fell off.
"Pomegranate! You're back! Zheng hurriedly ran over, and Shen Shimei also greeted him.
Zheng didn't expect Shen Pomegranate to come back suddenly, and he was very happy to see Shen Pomegranate!
"Mother, I miss you so much!" Shen Shiliu hugged Zheng and jumped straight.
"Mother-in-law!" Du Xuanmo is called a person, but now he is called his mother-in-law.
Hong Yi at the counter saw that Shen Pomegranate and his family came back to say hello, they hadn't seen each other for some days, but Shen Pomegranate looked a little richer.
"Let's go in first!" Zheng led Shen Shimei and Du Xuanmo into the backyard as he spoke, and the affairs of the lobby were handed over to Hong Yi, and Du Xuanmo quickly unloaded the things he brought.
Zheng was really happy, and asked as he walked, "Why did you come back suddenly?" ”
"Brother Shuliang is going to transport grain, and the two of us will come back together." Shen Shiliu said.
Zheng hurriedly called everyone over, Shen Shu was not at home, went back to the village to clean up the land, and Shen's father and Hong Xiuhua all came out.
After seeing each other, there was a burst of greetings, Hong Xiuhua was still holding the child in her arms, and Shen Shiliu hurriedly took it and hugged it.
"What's the name of my little nephew?" Shen Shiliu asked while holding the child.
Hong Xiuhua smiled and said, "It's called Shen Yu, your brother took it!" ”
Shen Shiliu smiled and coaxed the child, this child is now less than a year old, a small soft ball of meat, very cute.
Du Xuanmo took out all the gifts he brought, and the small gold bracelet of the longevity lock that Shen Shimei had prepared a long time ago was taken out, and the Zheng family helped out, and everyone looked at it and smiled.
"Oops, it looks like a little doll in the prime of life!" Zheng said with a smile.
Hong Xiuhua saw that Shen Pomegranate was so generous, and knew that Shen Pomegranate's life was very good, so she asked: "Pomegranate is also married now, or there is no movement?" "Although I left last winter, I received a letter at the beginning of this year saying that I was married, and it has been more than half a year.
Du Xuanmo smiled and said, "The two of us are not in a hurry. He could also see that everyone was in a hurry except for the two of them, who were not in a hurry.
Zheng knew Shen Shimei's thoughts, so he said: "Also, you are still young here, and you are not in a hurry to have a child so early!" ”
The family finally reunited, and naturally there were a lot of things to say, and Du Xuanmo couldn't get into the topic of women.
When Shen Shu came back, he heard Hong Yi say that Shen Shimei and his family were back, and walked to the backyard with a surprised face.
Du Xuanmo was sitting in the courtyard, and as soon as Shen Shu came in, he saw Du Xuanmo first.
"Brother-in-law!" Shen Shu called out directly.
Du Xuanmo turned his head and smiled, turned his head and shouted, "Big brother." ”
Shen Shu smiled and patted Du Xuanmo's shoulder, he hadn't seen him for a while, Du Xuanmo seemed to be tall again.
Entering the house, looking at Shen Shimei, the brother and sister naturally have to care for each other for a while, Shen Shimei has not been at home for a while, Shen Shu looks like he has a lot of edges and corners, and Shen Shu must have taken care of this house.
The news of Shen Shimei's return came quickly, and the surrounding neighbors all gathered together to chat, who would have thought that the fat girl at the beginning could now be the wife of the fate?
Shen Shiliu has taken on the responsibility of cooking every day in the past few days, and even took over the work of cooking in the restaurant, she doesn't know when she will be able to come back as soon as she leaves, she only hopes that she can do more for her parents and family when she has time.
Zheng looked at Shen Pomegranate working, and felt that the days seemed to be back to the past, Shen Pomegranate worked like she couldn't see enough, and always thought that life would go on like that, but when she looked back, she realized that many things had changed.
After Shen Shimei finished cooking, he came over and sat down, and most of the things he made were to replenish his body. Hong Xiuhua has not weaned her child yet, and it is enough to eat some good child's milk.
"How long will you stay here this time?" Father Shen asked Shen Pomegranate, Shen Pomegranate can stay, but Du Xuanmo still has an official position in the imperial court after all, so he can't stay here.
Shen Shiliu counted: "I can stay for another seven days." Shen Shiliu said.
"Huh? Are you going to leave so soon? Zheng was a little lost after hearing this.
Shen Shiliu actually felt reluctant, but Du Xuanmo took a month's leave, and the time on the road was delayed a lot, and the time at home was very small.
"Otherwise, I'll stay at home and let my father-in-law go back first!" Shen Shiliu said, anyway, Han Shuliang will keep transporting grain back and forth, she will stay for a few more days, and then go back.
When Zheng heard this, he immediately retorted: "That's not good, you should go back!" "The Zheng family has its own concerns, Shen Shiliu is already married after all, and the in-laws have to have opinions if they stay in their mother's house for too long!
Du Xuanmo also knew Zheng's thoughts, so he didn't say anything, Shen Shiliu thought about it, it is estimated that Zheng has another worry, I am afraid that she is not at home, and the colorful flags outside Du Xuanmo are fluttering!
At night, Shen Shiliu went to sleep with Zheng, and the mother and son slept in a quilt, Zheng hugged Shen Shimei and asked: "When you got married, your mother didn't see you wearing a wedding dress, it's always a little regrettable." ”
Shen Shiliu also felt regretful, the wedding that was only held during the special period, and it was indeed a pity that there was no father and mother to watch him get married.
"But my mother can imagine how beautiful you must be, I knew that you were going to marry someone this time, if you didn't marry directly, my mother would have to worry. Now that she treats you so well, my mother is relieved. Zheng said, she still didn't want Shen Shiliu to have any burden in her heart.
"Mother, that's good!" Shen Shiliu rubbed into Zheng's arms, amused Zheng's family, and asked randomly: "Is there anything bad about your mother-in-law treating you?" ”
"Okay, it's all good, my mother-in-law is good to me, and now she still counts the accounts of the Kyoto City Restaurant for me, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is still very harmonious." Shen Shiliu said.
Zheng nodded: "That's good, that Du Niangzi looks silent, and every time she can make something surprise people." ”
Shen Shiliu smiled, her mother still minded that Du Niangzi would go to talk to the old county master about kissing.
"It's okay, my mother-in-law has nothing but urging me to give birth quickly." Shen Shiliu said.
Zheng touched Shen Shimei's head and said: "It's almost time to give birth to one, now Du Xuanmo is a big official, my mother is afraid that he will take a concubine, now there are too many men with three wives and four concubines, but my mother is still afraid that you will be wronged." ”
Shen Shiliu listened to Zheng's worries, and said: "I believe in him, if a man really wants to change his mind, I can't stop him, I am good enough for him, as long as his conscience is not enough, he will not take a concubine." ”
The mother and daughter fell asleep chatting here, but Du Xuanmo was a little embarrassed. Zheng and Shen Shimei slept together, and Shen's father was brought here, and in the face of his father-in-law, Du Xuanmo was still polite.
"Father-in-law drinks water." Du Xuanmo poured water for Shen's father.
Father Shen is also embarrassed, now that Du Xuanmo is an official, it doesn't seem to be the same thing to serve him tea and pour water. Although there was a vacant room at home, Shen Shiliu and his family came back too suddenly, and they didn't have time to clean up, so they could only temporarily squeeze together......
"Let's go to bed early...... Father Shen lay down on the bed first, and then after thinking about it, he moved inside.
Du Xuanmo smiled bitterly, the experience of "sharing the same bed" with his father-in-law was really ...... Indescribable!
The next morning, Du Xuanmo went to the yard to wash, and after a while, Shen Pomegranate also came out in a daze, and Shen's father quickly slipped back when he saw Shen Pomegranate coming out.
Shen Shiliu looked at Du Xuanmo's appearance and knew that this little brother must have not slept well all night.
"I'll go back to my room and sleep tonight!" Shen Shiliu laughed after speaking, looking at Du Xuanmo's embarrassed face, she felt quite funny.
The little couple was happy in Anyang County, but they didn't know that Du Niangzi in Kyoto City had made trouble again!
