Chapter 316: Let go of the past
After all, Master Shen still prefers the fourth aunt more, and when he saw Mrs. Shen lose her temper, he immediately said, "Okay, she is just reminding you, don't worry about her, no matter what, you can't lose your identity." ”
Mrs. Shen glanced at Master Shen, took a sip of the teacup, and did not respond.
At this moment, a young man dressed in white walked in at the door.
This person was Shen Zhuchi, and when he walked in, the fourth aunt's eyes were slightly wide, and Mrs. Shen observed this very keenly.
"The child greets his father and mother."
Shen Zhuqi stepped forward with a flat expression, as if the two people sitting in the high hall were not his parents.
When the fourth aunt saw him, she was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted her: "You are finally here, hurry up and sit down, your father has been talking about you for the past two days, and I don't know the business over there in Buzhuang, how did you take over?" ”
The fourth aunt's concerned greeting made Mrs. Shen's heart even more suspicious.
A woman's intuition has always been very keen, including the way she looked at the fourth aunt looking at Shen Zhuchi, it seemed a little unusual.
Master Shen smiled on the side and said: "Yes, your father and I have the intention to hand over the business of the cloth village to you to take care of, your mother is old and can't take care of many things, so this time reflects your importance." ”
Mrs. Shen listened on the side, and was so busy that she raised her finger and said: "Master, whether my body is good or not, I know it in my heart, I don't need to find some helpers to help, I can take care of these things alone." ”
This Mrs. Shen has always been arrogant, and she has to take care of everything by herself, Shen Zhuzhen smiled beside her, Mrs. Shen is indeed a young spirit, because her heart has been working hard.
"I understand what my father means, I just want the child to share some of the burden for my mother, since this is the case, what is impossible, the things on the side of the boat are all taken care of by Wu Laosi, because I may have to go on a long trip, but I only came back recently, and I don't want to leave my father's side so soon."
Shen Zhuchi's words made Master Shen happy, he was so busy that he patted his chest and smiled, it seems that he has recovered well these days.
So he glanced at Mrs. Shen again, leaned over, looked at Shen Zhuqi and said, "Since you have almost recovered now, your mother has also promised you a family affair." ”
Shen Zhuqi looked at Mrs. Shen a little blankly.
Mrs. Shen smiled, so she said: "This woman's surname is Shang, her family background is good, and she is very cultivated, and she has reached the age of Jilu, so I discussed it with her father, and I also had some business dealings with his family."
"Later, after communicating for a long time, I recognized this daughter in his mouth, don't worry, she has everything, she has everything, she marries our Shen family, and we won't treat her badly."
It sounded like a good marriage, Mrs. Qin deliberately paid attention to the expression of the fourth aunt, only to see that her pupils flickered slightly, and a trace of loneliness crossed her eyes.
She looked at Master Shen, still forced a smile and said: "I think it's good, the eldest lady's vision has always been precise and unique, and the daughter-in-law she chose for Zhu Qi must also be unique." ”
Master Shen also nodded with satisfaction, and observed Shen Zhuchi's expression again.
Seeing that he was absent-minded, he stepped forward, patted his arm and said, "In this family, you are not married alone, the two sisters in the family have already married far away, and your two younger brothers and three older brothers have already been married."
"The entire Shen Mansion is just one person, seeing that you are alone every day, my father's heart is not good.
"It's been so long since the flower girl's affairs, I have to let go of my heart, after all, this person still has to look forward."
This old man Shen patted Shen Zhuchi's arm seriously, and looking at Shen Zhuchi's expression again, there was also a look of indifference.
The fourth aunt ate a pastry on the side, trying to hide the panic on her face.
Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "Another day, I will ask Jinglan to come to the house for a walk, the two of them will start to communicate with friends first, if you are really dissatisfied, there are many girls from this famous family in Xitang, and when the time comes, one by one, our chime is not bad, don't worry about it for a while, master, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Obviously, it was Mrs. Shen who made her own decision and decided this family affair for Shen Zhuchi, but now she has changed to such a face, and there is a trace of disdain in the eyes of the fourth aunt, but she quickly took it back.
Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Zhuqi with a smile, and soon arranged for the two to meet.
This Shang Jinglan is really from a famous aristocratic family, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, proficient in music and rhythm, and good at chanting poetry, but she can't find a trace of bad in her.
Early one morning.
Shang Jinglan had already gotten out of the carriage, and Mrs. Shen immediately stepped forward, holding her hand warmly and said, "Jinglan, I've been looking forward to you for a long time, and now I finally have the opportunity to come to our Shen family as a guest, and I will say hello to your father on my behalf." ”
Shang Jinglan immediately bowed and said: "It's rare for Mrs. Shen to remember the agreement with my father, to be able to come to the Shen Mansion today, that is, to accompany Mrs. Shen more, fortunately, Mrs. Shen has taken some scriptures here." ”
Shen Zhuqi was behind him, and there was no smile on his face.
He looked at this Shang Jinglan, her hair was soft and long, up to her waist, and she just used a black and white ribbon on her head to make a slightly complicated hair accessory, it seemed that she also liked to be simple and clean.
Add some beaded flower tassels on both sides, and when she walked, she had some bangs in front of her forehead, which looked girly, and the charcoal black ink drew a thin and long willow eyebrows, making her face more vivid.
The skin is fair and delicate, which is the state that a daughter's family should have, and her eyes are like a pool of spring water, but when she walked over, she didn't notice that Shen Zhuqi was also staring at her.
She recently lived in the house temporarily, and naturally brought two personal maids, walked to the main hall, and met Master Shen and the fourth aunt.
Everyone praised her for being generous and decent, and this Mrs. Shen thought of today's protagonist, and looked at Shen Zhuchi, who was unknown on the side, and he really wanted to ignore him if he didn't say a word.
Hurriedly smiled awkwardly, took Shang Jinglan's hand, walked in front of Shen Zhuqi and said, "This is the bamboo chime I often mention to you, I didn't lie to you, you look talented, and you are suave." ”
