As the saying goes, home and everything prospers.

It is naturally best for a family to work together to be able to twist into a rope together. However, if you really can't screw a piece, you can't force it.

Therefore, if you do not make up your mind, no one will have peace in the end.

The second elder of the Zhu family has a preference for the eldest son Zhu Feng, not only because he is the eldest son. Although Zhu Jun is not badly talented, compared with his eldest brother, he still lacks a sense of calmness and responsibility.

The old man believes that only those who dare to sacrifice for this family are the well-deserved heads of the family.

When the autumn wind was blowing, Zhu Jinlun finally returned from Cangzhou.

He looked a lot thinner, and the skin on his face became rougher, which showed the hard work of the journey.

Chai stroked his face distressedly, his eyes were full of distress and said, "Looking at you like this, it's really distressing." Is the body still able to eat? Is there anything uncomfortable, do you want to ask a doctor to come and see......"

Zhu Jinlun shook his head slightly and said, "My son is fine, but he is a little tired from the journey, and it will be good to rest for two days." ”

The old lady immediately said, "You have worked hard all the way, hurry up and go back to freshen up and rest early." ”

Although Zhu Jinlun was very tired, he was not in a hurry to go back to rest. On the contrary, the person he wanted to see most now, this would not have appeared.

Zhu Jinlun hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "I want to go and see my sister-in-law." ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Chai Shi hurriedly said: "You just came back, what are you doing in such a hurry?" ”

Zhu Jinlun still insisted on seeing Shen Yuechen, no matter what, he wanted to talk to her about Cangzhou in person.

Old Man Zhu still understood his thoughts, and then nodded and said, "It's okay for you to go and see her." ”

Zhu Jinlun bowed over when he heard this, and slowly exited the room.

Shen Yuechen now sits in the house every day and rarely goes out.

Her stomach is very heavy, and in addition, the wind outside is cold and wet, and it is easy to catch a cold if she is not careful, so people have to be careful.

Doctor Lu said that if Shen Yuechen wants to stabilize the tire gas, what he needs most is to recuperate.

The moment she saw Zhu Jinlun, Shen Yuechen was slightly surprised, "Second brother, are you back?" When did you come back? ”

Zhu Jinlun stepped forward and bowed his hand to her, which was regarded as a salute.

Shen Yuechen also lowered her head and greeted him softly, but in the next second, she still held the hand of the maid Chunming, stood up, and said anxiously: "Uncle has any news?" ”

Zhu Jinlun's eyes were condensed, and he was silent for a few seconds.

His silence and expression were already the most obvious answers.

Shen Yuechen looked at his face and sighed deeply in his heart.

Zhu Jinlun took a step forward and arched his hand again: "I have found all the places I can find, and I have thought of all the ways I can think of, but unfortunately, I still can't find out the whereabouts of my eldest brother." Sister-in-law, although Nylon doesn't want to say anything discouraged, but the matter of the eldest brother may only be resolved like this......"

The truth is always hard to hear, and the truth is always cruel. Zhu Jinlun knew that he had to give Shen Yuechen an explanation.

Shen Yuechen lowered his eyes and said lightly: "With the second brother Lao running for the uncle for so long, Yuechen is infinitely grateful in his heart. However, if the uncle has no whereabouts for a day, my heart will not give up for a day. Even if something really happened to him, I thought the same as the old lady, I had to see people in life and corpses in death...... Whether the outcome is good or bad, I am prepared. ”

Zhu Jinlun couldn't help but move his eyebrows when he heard this, only to feel that his sister-in-law could really calm down.

If it were someone else, it would be estimated that it would be to wash his face with tears all day long, crying and crying out of human shape.

After expressing her attitude, there was a faint chill in Shen Yuechen's eyes, she looked at Zhu Jinlun and suddenly asked, "I originally had a few things that I wanted to ask the second master." It's rare for the second master to come over in person today, so I have something to say. ”

Zhu Jinlun nodded when he heard this, stretched out his hand, and made a gesture of "please speak".

Shen Yuechen was about to speak, but suddenly remembered the children who were sleeping soundly in the room, and hurriedly instructed Wu's mother: "Mom, help me carry the children to the second room." ”

Wu's mother hurriedly responded, and took two or two maids to the inner room and hugged the children out.

Shen Yuechen saw Zhu Ying's little feet exposed from the quilt, and hurriedly raised her hand to cover her with the quilt.

After the children had gone out, Shen Yuechen asked Zhu Jinlun to sit down and talk.

There was ready-made tea on the table, and Chun Ming stepped forward to pour a cup of hot tea for each of them, and then quietly stepped aside.

After sitting down, Shen Yuechen had a chance to look at Zhu Jinlun a few times, looking at his appearance, he should have just come back, and he didn't even have time to change his clean clothes.

It's hard for him to be so concerned.

Shen Yuechen thought silently, although there were some conflicts of interest between the long room and the second room, it was not easy for Zhu Jinlun to be able to do it himself this time and run around for Zhu Jintang's affairs.

Shen Yuechen was grateful to him, and after seeing that he drank all the tea in the cup, he personally reached out and poured him another cup without waiting for Chun Ming to step forward.

Zhu Jinlun thanked him and said lightly: "What does my sister-in-law want to ask?" ”

Shen Yuechen said bluntly: "This time the uncle disappeared, what does the second master think was wrong?" ”

Zhu Jinlun was slightly stunned, thought for a while and said: "Although my sister-in-law is sitting at home, I must have heard a lot of rumors." The news from the capital is obviously the most credible at present. I think it's the chaos that they did. ”

Shen Yuechen listened quietly, and her heart cooled inch by inch.

She held the hand of the teacup, and with a slight force, she accidentally made a slight noise.

"Still, there's something I don't know. Since it was done by the rebel party, where did they get the news? ”

When Zhu Jinlun heard this, he only said: "It's not a secret that the imperial court collects grain in various places. It wasn't difficult for them to get the news, just a little inquiry. ”

When Shen Yuechen heard this, she shook her head slightly, and said disapprovingly: "If it's just collecting grain locally, it's easy to inquire." However, the uncle went to Cangzhou this time...... How could those chaotic parties know about such a thoughtful matter? Moreover, since they want to grab grain, then why bother to do it, wait until the uncle appears before doing it, and directly rob it in Cangzhou, wouldn't it be easier. ”

To be honest, this point has always bothered Shen Yuechen. She couldn't figure out how to think about it, if those chaotic parties were really just asking for food, they could blatantly rob those big landlords and big merchants in Cangzhou, and they had money, grain, and silver...... Why bother, do you have to provoke the Zhu family?

The reputation of the Zhu family is outside, but anyone who knows the Zhu family will be jealous.

Provoking the Zhu family is equivalent to provoking the Ruan family in the capital, and provoking the Ruan family will inevitably alarm the concubine. In this way, what was originally just a trivial matter of robbing money and food caused a stir.

Everyone looks at things from a different perspective.

Zhu Jinlun listened to Shen Yuechen's words, and his heart moved, only to feel that her words were not completely unreasonable.

This kind of unsavory deed, the smaller the movement, the better, how can you have to go against the wind?

"Second master, think about it carefully, if you are not familiar with the Zhu family, how can you know the whereabouts of the uncle. To be honest, when the uncle enters the city and when he leaves the city, these things are difficult for even our own family to know so clearly. ”

Zhu Jinlun's eyebrows frowned, and he muttered, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean?" ”

Shen Yuechen put down the teacup and said seriously: "Although I don't know much about the things outside, I always feel that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface. First of all, the rebels have robbed the grain, which is certain, but who is their source? In other words, who gave them the news? ”

Mole...... These two words flashed in Zhu Jinlun's mind, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not quite right.

"Sister-in-law, you don't suspect that there is a mole in our family, do you?"

Shen Yuechen deliberately left half of his words, and only said: "The family is naturally trustworthy, but what I'm worried about is those people outside, those who have common interests with the Zhu family......"

Zhu Jinlun's eyes flashed, and then he looked at Shen Yuechen and said, "You mean the Jia family......"

As the Zhu family, the most favorable competitor for many years, the suspicion of the Jia family is obviously the biggest. As the saying goes, peers are enemies. One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, the Zhu family and the Jia family have been opposed for a long time, and they can be regarded as mortal enemies in the same city.

Shen Yuechen said in a deep tone: "Maybe it is, maybe it isn't." I'm just a housewife, and I can do some things, but I can't do them. Therefore, please ask the second master to put more effort into it and check it carefully. ”

She paused a little when she said this, "No matter what the result is, I really can't tolerate our Zhu family being calculated in vain like this." Whether the uncle is alive or dead, I must find out who really harmed him. ”

Zhu Jinlun's face moved slightly, although she was just a weak woman, but the momentum of a tooth for a tooth when she spoke was really not lost to others.

"Second master, will you help me?" Shen Yuechen didn't forget her identity, thinking to herself that if she really lowered her face and begged him, then he would be embarrassed to refuse.

Zhu Jinlun straightened his back and said with a serious expression: "My sister-in-law is as careful as a hair, and she really thinks about the problem very thoroughly. Since you're giving me this a wake-up call, then of course I'm going to get to the bottom of it. ”

Shen Yuechen felt a little relieved when she heard this, and hurriedly picked up the teacup on the table again, raised it and said, "Okay, then I will replace the wine with tea today, thank you for helping me with this." ”

Zhu Jinlun also picked up the teacup and responded: "Sister-in-law is polite, I am not only doing this to help you, but also for the eldest brother and the Zhu family." ”

……

Jiajia West Garden.

Jia Xiandong was looking at a picture book with relish, which was specially asked by Mrs. Jia to be drawn for him by the master, and there was not a word on it, only pictures with a plot.

The pictures on the picture book are all stories in the play, and Jia Xiandong has always liked to watch them.

Although he knows a lot of words, he doesn't like to read.

As soon as I saw the book full of small words, I didn't read it for a while, and I would feel a headache, and I would sit on the ground and play tricks.

Mrs. Jia's grandson, she doesn't have much hope, she just hopes that he can live a peaceful and happy life, and he will be content.

As soon as Jia Xiandong looked at the painting book, he would be very devoted, and when he was invested, he didn't even bother to eat, just kept reading it over and over again.

It's already past lunchtime.

Jia Xiandong still refused to eat, and the maids didn't dare to persuade him more, for fear that he would suddenly lose his temper and break all these good dishes and plates.

As soon as Tong Chuchu entered the house, he saw Jia Xiandong smirking at the painting book alone.

She smiled slightly, made a silent gesture to the maids, and then walked up to Jia Xiandong lightly, leaned over, and asked, "Is this picture book good-looking?" ”

Jia Xiandong replied casually without raising his head: "It's good-looking." ”

Tong Chuchu whispered "um" for a moment, and then asked, "Is this picture book good-looking, or is your daughter-in-law good-looking?" ”

Jia Xiandong opened his mouth, and only then did he feel that something was wrong, and suddenly raised his head, looked at Tong Chuchu who was smiling beside him, and then grinned, and said innocently: "My daughter-in-law is the best-looking." My Jia Xiandong's daughter-in-law is the best looking in the world. ”

Tong Chuchu smiled when he heard this.

"Then since I'm good-looking, why don't you eat with me?"

Jia Xiandong hesitated slightly, but closed the book with a "snap", got up and said, "Okay, I'll accompany my daughter-in-law to dinner, dinner." ”

Seeing this, the maids secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and only felt that the second grandmother had a way.

The second grandmother is not only good-looking, but also has many ways, and she always coaxes the second young master to obey in a few words.

When Jia Xiandong eats, he is very regular, eating one bite at a time, and after eating half a bowl, he has to drink soup.

In order to serve him well, Tong Chuchu deliberately remembered these trivial things clearly.

She is now the second young grandmother of the Jia family, she wants to be famous, she wants to have a face, and she no longer has to send people to look at her under the fence like before.

Tong Chuchu knew that all this was thanks to Jia Xiandong. That's why she has to be very good to him, so that he can't leave her all the time.

Just now, the old lady came to her again to talk, and it was still those few words that came and went. But she couldn't listen respectfully......

She knew very well in her heart that the old lady was dissatisfied with her. It's not a side, just because they've been married for so long, they still haven't had a round house.

has been married for so long, although they sleep in the same bed every day, but the two are not husband and wife.

Jia Xiandong didn't know how to have sex, so he just hugged Tong Chuchu and slept soundly every night, which made the old lady cry and laugh.

Tong Chuchu also felt helpless, watching the grandmothers come over to check the beds with a disappointed face every morning, and put away the white handkerchiefs that had to be reprepared every day.

If she doesn't have a round house for a day, she is not the real second young grandmother of the Jia family.

Although Tong Chuchu was also anxious, there was nothing she could do.

She also tried a few times to "seduce" Jia Xiandong, but he was as simple and innocent as a child, so even if she didn't have a wisp on her body, he didn't react, he would just strip off his clothes, and then continue to sleep with her and do nothing......

After Tong Chuchu tried a few times, he also gave up. I just feel that it's good for two people to go with the flow like this, they don't have to live as if they are flattering every day, as long as they are really good to him, take care of his diet and daily life, and let him continue to live carefree, even if he has fulfilled his duty as a wife. As for the child, this is not her business alone, everything depends on him and the will of God......

It's just that they are not in a hurry, but Mrs. Jia is very anxious, and she has to send someone to guard the house of two people every day.

Watching Jia Xiandong eat obediently, Tong Chuchu couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Maybe that's her life.

Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory, she now has everything she wants, but the only regret is that her husband is a child who will never grow up.

Xu is fate makes people, the two grandsons of the Jia family, one is a shrewd philistine and ruthless, and the other is born stupid and simple-minded, and there is a world of difference.

Jia Nanlin is a person who makes people feel scared, and every time Tong Chuchu sees him, he will unconsciously avoid it.

Judging from his appearance, he is not fierce and vicious, but his eyes are too poisonous, as if he has a hook, and once it falls on someone's body, he will not let go easily, as if he has to hook a layer of flesh.

Tong Chuchu was afraid of Jia Nanlin's eyes, and even more afraid of his bold and presumptuous actions behind people.

She clearly remembered that on the evening five days after getting married, she was blocked by him on the road to the cloister, and he suddenly leaned into her ear and whispered: "My second brother is a waste, if you want to live a prosperous life in the Jia family, I can give you a chance." With that, a sly smile appeared on his face.

The smile was chilling, like a predator looking at its prey about to be caught, sinister and full of confidence......

From that moment on, Tong Chuchu felt scared. But anyone who lives in the Jia family knows what kind of ruthless character Jia Nanlin is. When you listen to some words too much, you will unconsciously take them to heart and linger on them.

Tong Chuchu was slightly distracted for a while, and suddenly remembered that he had heard rumors a while ago......

Zhu Jintang, the eldest of the Zhu family, was robbed, and his life and death are still unknown. The Zhu family was in a big mess because of this, and they lost a lot of money.

After Zhu Jintang's accident, the Jia family suddenly had a chance to come out, and I heard that the people on the side of the Chamber of Commerce also began to turn their heads to support the Jia family and become a strong candidate for the next vice president.

Everyone in the city is rumoring that Zhu Jintang is dead. However, the Zhu family did not give up and were still trying their best to find ......

When Tong Chuchu heard the news, his heart was also tight.

Zhu Jintang is really dead...... He is the future leader of the Zhu family and the lifeblood of his aunt.

If something happens to him, then my aunt must be sad......

Thinking of this, Tong Chuchu's heart felt a little more vaguely proud.

It's good to be sad, it's better to make her heartbroken, it's the best compensation for yourself.

No one can be so proud forever, live a life of being high and carefree. It's time for them to suffer! This man, sometimes he has to be tortured before he can learn to behave.
