Chapter 49: Row of Days (3)
Before the sky was clear, Zhu Jintang was woken up by the sound of rustling around him, he opened his eyes and saw that Shen Yuechen had already dressed and got up, so he also sat up, and said with a slightly unhappy expression: "Why did you get up so early?" ”
Shen Yuechen looked ashamed, hurriedly waited for him to get up and dress, and said softly: "Mama Li just came over, indicating that my brother seems to be sick, and the concubine is trying to go over to see him......"
Just now Mama Li came in and whispered in her ear with a worried expression.
When Zhu Jintang heard this, he immediately stood up from the side of the bed, and his expressionless face showed a trace of anxiety.
Brother Ming is his only son, and he is also the only hope of the long house, and there is no room for the slightest mistake.
Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen hurried to the main courtyard, and as soon as they entered the second room, they saw Li Shi wiping his tears, raised his head to look at Zhu Jintang with teary eyes, and choked up: "You are here." ”
Zhu Jintang saw that her eyes were red from crying, and he knew that the situation was not good, and his face suddenly became a little gloomy.
The baby's weak cry came from the inside, Shen Yuechen bent his knees, hurriedly saluted, and ran to the inside to check out.
The nurse was walking back and forth in the house with Brother Ming in her arms, and when she saw Shen Yuechen coming, she didn't care about saluting, so she sent Brother Ming into her arms, as if she was a rescuer who fell from the sky.
The little man in the swaddling clothes was crying hoarsely, his eyes were red and red, and he looked pitiful and aggrieved.
Shen Yuechen hugged him and coaxed him softly: "Brother Ming'er is obedient, don't cry." ”
Brother Ming opened a pair of red rabbit eyes, looked at Shen Yuechen's face, and gradually lowered his cry, but he still pouted and kept sobbing and choking.
Seeing this, the nurse on the side suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and interjected at the right time: "Young Grandma, Young Master Ming has been making trouble for most of the night, it seems that he is looking for you." ”
When Shen Yuechen heard this, his face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly said, "Is there anything uncomfortable about him?" ”
The nurse shook her head: "The doctor came over and looked at it, and they all said it was fine, but the young master just cried so much, he slept for a while, woke up for a while, and made a lot of trouble." ”
When Shen Yuechen heard this, she nodded, thought to herself, and said softly: "I'll coax him here for a while, and then you go out and talk back to Madame." ”
The nurses agreed repeatedly.
Shen Yuechen sat back on the edge of the bed with Brother Ming in her arms, and said in a very small voice: "If you always cry like this, your body will not be able to bear it." Don't you want to grow up quickly and be a normal person who can talk and walk? ”
Brother Ming looked at her with teary eyes, blinking innocently and widening his eyes, and for a while, tears and snot flowed out in unison.
She is the only person in the world who knows his identity, and if she suddenly disappears, I am afraid that I will really not be able to live.
Shen Yuechen hurriedly took out a handkerchief, wiped his face, wiped his nose again, and continued to comfort softly: "You have to be patient, when the time is ripe in the future, I will take you back and take care of you personally." ”
Brother Ming listened, opened his small mouth, and sobbed in response, as if he was agreeing with her words.
Shen Yuechen patted him on the back and said with a slight smile: "Sleep, sleep in peace." ”
Brother Ming was reluctant to close his eyes, and his eyes kept wandering around Shen Yuechen's face until he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes anymore.
He was worried that he would suddenly disappear...... Shen Yuechen hugged him and thought quietly, thinking secretly in his heart, Brother Ming is now being taken care of by the Li family, and as a stepmother, if he wants to propose that he should come over and raise him personally, it will inevitably make people feel a little overwhelmed and exceed their duties...... However, if you don't ask him to come over, let him cry in fear every day, how long can this little body last?
Shen Yuechen thought about it and felt that no matter what, he still had to fight to bring Brother Ming over to raise him, and if he could, it was best to let Zhu Jintang come forward to lobby...... In this way, it also saves a lot of trouble.
Li Shi and Zhu Jintang had been listening to the movement outside, and when they heard Brother Ming'er's crying stopped, their expressions eased slightly.
The nurses then came out to reply, saying that the eldest and youngest grandmothers had put Brother Ming to sleep and were fine.
Hearing this, Li Shi held the Buddha beads in his hand, folded his hands, and muttered: "Buddha bless, God bless, bless Brother Ming'er's child to be safe and live a long life......
Zhu Jintang sat aside, silent, his fist that was originally clenched tightly slowly loosened little by little, and then got up and said, "Mother, since it's okay here, my son will go out first, and I still have some things to deal with." ”
Seeing that he wanted to leave, Li Shi hurriedly said, "I'll leave before breakfast...... Jintang, don't you go in and see Brother Ming? ”
"My son is not hungry, so I will retire first." Zhu Jintang looked at his worried mother beside him and replied lightly.
Brother Ming, this child, from birth to the present, Zhu Jintang has seen him many times, and he can count it clearly on ten fingers, not that he doesn't like it, but he is deliberately keeping his distance......
Zhu Jintang lifted his feet and walked out of the room, walked two steps, suddenly stopped again, subconsciously went around to the window of the second room, and looked inside.
The carved wooden window is hidden, and the beautiful figure inside can be faintly seen, as well as the small swaddling clothes she is holding in her arms.
Zhu Jintang paused slightly, then turned away, and when Shen Yuechen noticed that there was someone outside the window, he had already strode away.
Shen Yuechen hugged Brother Ming, moved to the window, looked at Zhu Jintang's somewhat lonely back, and sighed silently.
Everyone said that the Zhu family was hard-lived, and his wife and children were ...... Presumably, the speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, and he will inevitably have some scheming in his own heart, so he deliberately treated this child coldly.
After Brother Ming fell asleep, Shen Yuechen dared to hand him over to the nurses to take care of.
Seeing her come out, Li Shi raised his hand to make a silent gesture, and asked softly, "Brother Ming'er is asleep?" ”
Shen Yuechen nodded and replied in a low voice, "Yes, he was sleeping and thinking." ”
Li Shi finally had a smile on his face, beckoned, and motioned for her to come over to his side: "You haven't eaten breakfast yet, let's go eat something to cushion your stomach first." ”
"Yes." Shen Yuechen nodded and chuckled: "Mother Wu has already prepared a meal over there, and the concubine will leave first." ”
Li Shi originally asked her to eat something here, but when she said this, he simply let her go back to eat.
After she left, Li Shi held Yang's mother's hand, walked into the Buddhist hall, and bowed respectfully to the Bodhisattva three times, and then his heart was more stable.
Wu's mother simmered chicken soup on the stove for Shen Yuechen early in the morning, and when she saw her back, she hurriedly took out a bowl to dry and served it.
Shen Yuechen sat at the table and drank beautifully, occasionally looking up at Cui Xin, who was doing needlework and embroidery on the side. Recently, her needlework has improved a lot, and she was taught by Wu's mother.
Cui Xin couldn't even hold an embroidered bandage before, but now she can embroider a lot of patterns. As the saying goes, famous teachers produce high apprentices, Shen Yuechen was also clumsy back then, every time he picked up a needle and thread, it would eventually become a mess, which made Wu's mother cry and laugh.
After breakfast, the aunts came over one after another to say goodbye, and when they heard that Brother Ming was unwell, they all behaved worriedly. Only Qin Taoxi still didn't come, and under the pretext of being unwell, he only sent a maid over to inform him.
When the other aunts heard this, they gave each other a look, and they couldn't help but want to see what it would be like for the new lady to lose her temper.
Shen Yuechen was silent for a while, just gently plucked the tea leaves floating on the water with the tea lid.
Qin Taoxi seemed to be eager to embarrass her.
The Cao family had the heart to stammer Shen Yuechen, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, "Aunt Qin, what is uncomfortable?" Don't ask a doctor to come and take a look at her. ”
Qin Taoxi's personal maid Orchid lowered her head slightly when she heard this, but she still didn't change her face and said: "Aunt Xie Cao cares, my aunt is just suffering from a little heat, so she won't get in the way." ”
Shen Yuechen heard this, took a sip of tea, and said gently: "If it is hot today, it will inevitably make people feel embarrassed." Aunt Qin is not feeling well, so let her have a good rest. When it's okay, when will I come back to say goodbye. ”
When the orchid heard this, the blessed body responded, and the palm-sized little face faintly showed a bit of pride. Sure enough, as her young lady expected, the young grandmother didn't dare to do anything to her, and even didn't say a word of seriousness.
Who knows, Shen Yuechen paused for a moment and continued: "However, since Aunt Qin is not happy, then the days that were scheduled before will have to be changed slightly, and Aunt Qin must not be allowed to serve Uncle Qin with illness...... Uncle's body is the most important, you go back and tell Aunt Qin, let her take care of her body with peace of mind, and you don't have to serve Uncle for the time being this month. ”
When everyone heard this, they were slightly stunned, especially Orchid's face was suddenly ugly, she looked at Shen Yuechen at a loss, she never expected that she would suddenly say this.
Cao Shi was shocked when he saw it, only to feel that this Shen Yuechen looked gentle and gentle on the surface, but on the inside he was a character who was not easy to provoke. The corners of Sun's mouth were slightly upturned, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he said in his heart: This wife and concubine are not fuel-efficient lamps, and there is really a good show to watch in the future.
Shen Yuechen said everything that should be said, then continued to bow her head and drink tea, seeing that everyone was looking at her in a daze, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Sisters, please drink tea, how about tasting this Longjing?" ”
The orchid stood aside, half unmoved, neither walking, nor standing.
Seeing this, Chun Ming gently pulled her sleeve and said, "Sister, why are you still here, hurry back and call back to your master, so that your aunt can recuperate with peace of mind." ”
Orchid blushed in a hurry, turned around and ran out, causing Chun Ming to sneer.
Shen Yuechen secretly let out a sigh of relief.
Qin Taoxi would never give up like this, it is estimated that it will not be long before he has to come up with some new tricks. Taking advantage of this idea to be free, you can have to cultivate your spirit, so as not to wait for the next time to get tired of dealing with it and lose your momentum. However, as she expected, after about a cup of tea, Chun'e outside the door lifted the curtain and reported: "Grandma Da Shao, Aunt Qin has come to say goodbye." ”
