Chapter 120: Mother's Family (2)
His slender fingers gently wrapped around her hair, and he loved her hair and the feel of the smooth hair running through his fingertips.
Shen Yuechen looked at Zhu Jintang and said, "Uncle, shouldn't you go to Aunt Cao tonight?" Why is it coming again? ”
Zhu Jintang gently stroked her soft green silk with his hand, and said indifferently: "I just went to see her." ”
I've just been there, and that's what it means to stay overnight.
Shen Yuechen nodded, didn't ask much, just closed the booklet and put it on the pestle next to the bed.
"Why don't you look at it?" Zhu Jintang asked.
Shen Yuechen turned his face to look at him sideways, and said softly: "It's not too early, it's time for the concubine to wait for the uncle to rest." ”
Who knows, Zhu Jintang replied: "I'm not sleepy yet." Don't be busy yet, you look at yours, I'll look at mine. ”
Shen Yuechen was slightly stunned when she heard this, only looked up at him, and said a little uncertainly: "It's all here, does the uncle still have to go to the study to be busy?" ”
Zhu Jintang said with a smile: "No, it's gone." After speaking, he bent down and took off his shoes, and then half-lay on the bed next to Shen Yuechen.
Shen Yuechen didn't know his intentions for a while, but when he handed the booklet back to him, he leaned back and looked at himself with a smile, his eyes were swirling, and they became brighter and brighter in the faint candlelight, like stars twinkling in the night sky.
Shen Yuechen blushed at him, and slightly staggered back, and smiled softly: "What is Uncle looking at me doing?" ”
"You look at yours, I'll look at mine." Zhu Jintang repeated it again.
Shen Yuechen's eyes flashed slightly, her face turned red, and she said, "What do I have to look at." ”
Zhu Jintang smiled slightly and deliberately did not speak.
He looked at her, and naturally reached out and gently swept the hair that fell next to his cheek behind his ear. A small gesture, but surprisingly intimate.
Shen Yuechen inexplicably felt a hot heart.
Recently, his smile seems to have increased, in fact, the way he smiles is very beautiful and dazzling.
As she watched his angular face, she could see the long eyelashes on his eyelids, his dark eyes, and the slightly curled corners of his mouth......
Suddenly, a feeling of palpitations and uneasiness arose, and Shen Yuechen subconsciously hid to the side, only letting his kiss fall on his cheek.
Xu Yes, because the two of them have been too close recently, she suddenly felt a little worried.
The gentler he was, the more uneasy she felt.
Why is Zhu Jintang always so gentle to her? Is it because he really likes her? Or is it just for the kids? So, what would he become if one day he found out that she was not easy to get pregnant? I'm afraid that even looking at her more will make me feel uncomfortable. Thinking of this, Shen Yuechen's heart suddenly cooled a lot, and then he shook his head, wanting to drive away these uneasy thoughts immediately.
Zhu Jintang was quite surprised when he saw her shaking his head, raised his two thick eyebrows, and immediately stopped moving.
"What's wrong?"
"It's fine." She tried her best to hide her worries.
Zhu Jintang groaned slightly and asked, "Is it inconvenient for you?" ”
Shen Yuechen came to her senses, nodded quickly, and lowered her head without saying a word.
I see.
Zhu Jintang took a deep breath, slowly picked up her jaw, and when his eyes looked at her again, the hot lust had long since disappeared, and only a piece of gentleness remained. "I see, go to sleep."
He imprinted a kiss on her forehead and put his arms around her to lie down again. Shen Yuechen didn't struggle anymore, she snuggled up on his chest and let him hold it, but she didn't feel sleepy for a long time.
Intimacy is intimacy, reality is still reality. Although they are entangled, they are not deep enough, she is very satisfied with the current relationship between the two people, but she doesn't know how long this relationship can last......
Early the next morning, Wu's mother met with the Shen family's descendants on the pretext of going out to buy ingredients.
In the afternoon of the next day, the Shen family officially sent a servant to deliver a letter, which said that Mrs. Shen occasionally felt cold and felt unwell.
As soon as Shen Yuechen received the letter, she understood what her grandmother meant, so that she could go back to her parents' house under the pretext of visiting the sick.
Shen Yuechen didn't delay her efforts, and went directly to the upper room with the letter and told the old lady and the eldest lady.
When the old lady heard that her old in-laws were sick, she was very concerned, and she hurriedly asked someone to prepare a few supplements and let Shen Yuechen take them back together. "Your grandmother is also an elderly person, and the weather will get colder and colder, so when you go back, you should tell her to take care of her health."
Shen Yuechen deliberately reddened her eyes and nodded: "Old lady Xie bothered." ”
Li Shi immediately said: "Since you have gone back, then stay longer and come back." When my old relatives see you, they are happy, and their illness will get better soon. You spend more time with her, and it doesn't matter if it's late. ”
When Shen Yuechen heard this, she was blessed again, "Mrs. Xie." ”
Seeing that her eyes were slightly red, the old lady sighed softly and said, "Okay, don't worry about it." Older people, the body is naturally useless, you go back and take a look. ”
The porter's servants had already prepared a soft sedan chair and parked outside the West Corner Gate, and the four well-dressed sedan chair drivers were waiting quietly.
Shen Yuechen took Wu's mother's hand out of the West Corner Gate and sat in a soft sedan chair with her. Chun Ming and Cui Xin each carried a plain bag and followed the sedan chair on foot.
The sedan chair went all the way out of the gate of the Zhu family, walked out of the alley, and came to the street where people came and went.
When he returned to the door last time, Shen Yuechen quietly calculated that from the Zhu family to the Shen family, it would only take half an hour at most, and one hour of back and forth was enough.
"Mother Wu, have you explained everything at home?" Shen Yuechen lifted a corner of the curtain, looked outside, and asked.
Mother Wu smiled faintly: "Since the old lady sent someone to bring the letter, it must have been arranged." ”
After more than half an hour, the sedan chair finally stopped at the gate of the Shen family's old mansion.
Outside the gate, the housekeeper's daughter-in-law led a group of maids and wives to greet them.
Shen Yuechen was slightly startled when she saw it.
Although the old mansion of the Shen family is not small, there are not many people in the family, and there are only more than ten people inside and out. But at this time, there were already more than 20 people just going out to greet them, and most of them were new faces she had never seen.
The daughter-in-law of the housekeeper who was the leader was a new face, and she took the lead in leading people to kowtow, and greeted Shen Yuechen and said, "Slaves and maids greet the eldest lady." ”
Shen Yuechen hurriedly raised her hand, "You don't have to be polite, what's wrong with the old lady?" ”
The housekeeper's daughter-in-law bowed down and replied, "The old lady has just taken medicine, and she will be resting in the upper room, please ask the eldest lady to talk with the slave." ”
Shen Yuechen didn't hurry to raise her steps, looked back at the sedan chair bearers, and ordered: "Take all the gifts in first, and then let the porter entertain them to drink tea and eat." ”
The housekeeper's daughter-in-law was busy answering them one by one, and after explaining a few words, she personally let Shen Yuechen go to the upper room.
As soon as Shen Yuechen walked to the door, he heard a burst of laughter, which sounded very charming and coquettish.
Shen Yuechen entered the house and took a look, only to see the two gray old ladies Shen sitting on the main seat, with an apricot-yellow pretty figure standing beside her, and it was Shen Yuechan when she looked closely.
Shen Yuechen walked in slowly, dressed as a gorgeous woman, the person was still the same person, but her expression and bearing were very different from before.
When Mrs. Shen saw her coming, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand and said, "Yuechen, you are here." ”
The maid next to her cleverly sent a brocade mat, and Shen Yuechen immediately bowed deeply, kowtowed, and said, "Granddaughter greets the old lady, and the old lady is blessed." ”
Old Mrs. Shen hurriedly motioned to the maid to help her up, and said in a strange tone: "Good boy, it's good that you're here, a family member, why do you have to do such a big gift." Come and let Grandmother have a good look. ”
Shen Yuechen stepped forward as he said and walked up to the old lady.
Old Lady Shen hurriedly took Shen Yuechen's jade-like warm little hand, looked at her carefully for a while, and saw that her face was ruddy, and her complexion was not bad, but she was still slender, looking thin, and there was no flesh on her body.
Old Lady Shen couldn't help frowning and said, "Look at you, why are you still so thin?" ”
Shen Yuechen lowered his head and smiled: "My grandson is already taking tonic every day." ”
Old Lady Shen tightened her hand: "That's not enough." Did you eat the blood swallow I sent to you last time? ”
"Not yet. Such a good thing, the grandson is reluctant to move. ”
"Don't be reluctant, I specially asked someone to send you to make up for your body. When you're done, I'll send someone to bring it to you. ”
As soon as Mrs. Shen's words fell, Shen Yuechan on the side came over and interjected: "Grandma is really, my sister is now married into a famous family, there are no good things, where is there any need for you to think about everything in such detail." ”
When Shen Yuechen heard this, she immediately looked at Shen Yuechan and said with a smile: "My sister is also here." ”
Shen Yuechan smiled skillfully: "My sister asked my sister to say goodbye." After speaking, he grabbed the old lady's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandma wrote a letter saying that she missed me, so I came back to accompany grandma." ”
Old Mrs. Shen touched her head with a smile: "Good boy, it's rare for your sister to come back, grandmother has something to say to your sister, you go back to the room first." ”
When Shen Yuechan heard this, the smile on her face immediately faded a little, agreed, and turned around and walked out of the upper room.
Old Madam Shen then waved her hand and motioned for the rest of the room to follow out.
After the people left, Old Lady Shen's expression changed slightly, looked at Shen Yuechen, and said with concern: "How are you?" Are you doing well at your in-laws' house? ”
Shen Yuechen thought to herself, she couldn't say it clearly, and only nodded: "Thanks to my grandmother, everything is fine." ”
Old Lady Shen sighed, "Then how is your body?" ”
"I don't take the medicine my grandmother gave me all day. The problem of menstrual cramps is much better......" Shen Yuechen said softly: "It's thanks to my grandmother last time that she acted in time to solve my problems, otherwise, I would be in big trouble." ”
Old Mrs. Shen sighed again: "You are also a stubborn temper. Something so big happened, and you didn't come back to inform me, but fortunately, Mother Wu was loyal to you and came back to tell me, so you didn't make a big mistake. ”
