Old Man Zhu looked at Brother Ming looking at him with teary eyes, the gloomy color between his eyebrows eased a lot, and his face was full of melancholy: "Okay, great-grandfather promised you that you will definitely treat your mother well and not let her go." You nasty little thing, don't cry, don't make the adults feel uncomfortable. ”

Brother Ming was stunned when he heard this, and his heart was overjoyed, and then he pouted, and asked a little childishly, "Really?" ”

Old Man Zhu smiled unconsciously, reached out and pinched his tender face, and said, "Little thing, your great-grandfather has always done what he says." After speaking, he slowly put Brother Ming on the ground, patted him on the back and said, "Go, go to your mother." ”

Brother Ming staggered back to Shen Yuechen, and when Zhu Ying saw this, he also jumped to the ground and ran straight over.

Shen Yuechen's heart jumped twice, and she was secretly a little nervous. Just now, what the old man said is not a kind of reply, or a kind of acquiescence.

Brother Ming put away his crying face, wrapped around Shen Yuechen's body like a little monkey, and said the last line he had prepared: "I want to be with my mother forever, where my mother goes, Brother Ming will go." ”

Zhu Ying also did the same, jumping up and down on Shen Yuechen's body, and muttered, "Ying'er also wants to be together." ”

Li Shi was taken aback when she heard this, but she had already been stimulated too much today, and she was not missing one more.

To be honest, she never expected that Brother Ming's child was so dependent on Shen Yuechen, thinking about it, even if it was a biological mother and son, blood was thicker than water, and she might not be able to be so close.

If it weren't for what he had seen and heard with his own eyes, Li really felt that everything was just an illusion, or who had cast some spell or played some deceptive trick......

Seeing that the more he thought about it, the more outrageous it became, Li Shi shook his head secretly, only to feel that his thoughts were a little ridiculous, and then turned his head and nodded the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, wiping his tears, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

Once upon a time, whenever she saw Shen Yuechen treating Brother Ming as her own, she was deeply grateful. However, looking at all this now, Li Shi felt some regret and regret. If she could, she would rather Shen Yuechen had never been so good to Brother Ming......

Suddenly, Old Man Zhu seemed to change his mind in an instant, and the old lady was also thoughtful.

It happened suddenly, which caught everyone off guard.

Shen Yuechen comforted the two children while looking at Zhu Jintang.

Zhu Jintang didn't speak for a long time, and he was quite struggling and uneasy in his heart.

Old Man Zhu sat back in his seat and said to Shen Yuechen: "The children have been crying for a long time, you take them back first." Jintang, you stay first, I have something to say to your father. ”

Shen Yuechen hurriedly bowed and nodded yes.

Brother Ming has been tired of being in her arms and refuses to come down. Shen Yuechen had no choice but to let the maid pick up Zhu Ying and follow behind him.

They walked all the way out of the house and walked through the corridor, Shen Yuechen never spoke, just hugged the heavy Brother Ming, thinking about what kind of conversation there would be in the upper room at this moment?

Will the elders be angry with Zhu Jintang again because of her......

Just when she was secretly distracted, Brother Ming deliberately leaned into her ear and whispered: "Don't worry, from now on, you can rest easy." But don't forget, you owe me a thank you. ”

When Shen Yuechen heard this, she looked at his swollen red eyes and smiled slightly, but she didn't speak. Just a "thank you", of course, is not enough, there is no doubt that Brother Ming'er's hard work has really helped her a lot, but it is too early to say that she can rest easy.

……

Without the crying of the child, the upper room was quiet.

Zhu Jintang sat upright, quietly facing the four elders.

He waited for a while, but no one spoke, but he heard the crisp bead curtain, and then saw the maid come in with a tray and replace the hot new tea for everyone one by one.

The old lady waved her hand and sent all her subordinates outside, only then did she glance at her grandson and sigh softly: "Before everyone takes a stand, let me ask you first, when Yuechen is usually with the children, have you ever said anything?" ”

Either way, she wanted to make sure again.

Zhu Jintang looked at them and replied: "The child is still young, Yuechen has always been very careful when she speaks, and besides, she has been recuperating recently, rarely with the children, and only gets together when she eats." Grandmother, you should know that Yuechen is not the kind of person who can talk nonsense, she really loves Brother Ming, I believe that she will not play this kind of trick. ”

He deliberately accentuated the end of the last few words, emphasizing his trust in Shen Yuechen.

When the old lady heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a slight headache: "Now, you see that everything is good for her. However, since you said no, and Brother Ming also said that it was useless, then I will believe it again for the time being. After speaking, she turned her head to look at her husband and said in a somewhat inquiring tone: "Master, things seem to be getting bigger and bigger, and it is not a way to go on like this." What does the old man mean, is it still the same as before......"

Old Man Zhu groaned slightly and said, "I see, now, what we mean is no longer important. Anyway, the kids like that kid, and she's always done well, and we can't let us decide as we please. ”

When the old lady saw him begin to talk in circles, she knew what he meant.

"Who can say for sure what will come? Yuechen's child is not good now, but the doctor didn't say that she can't give birth in her life...... Therefore, it is not difficult to wait for another year and a half. What's more, how she usually takes care of Brother Ming, we all know in our hearts. If it was only a little painful, the child would not be sad like that just now...... Speaking of which, in the past year, their mother and son have been getting along day and night, how can they not be close? As the saying goes, mothers are kind and filial to their children, which is not a bad thing. So, let's just wait, wait and talk......"

The old man's tail note was a little long, he raised his eyes to see Zhu Feng frowning uncomfortably, and then looked at his daughter-in-law Li Shi's disapproval, reached out and gently touched his wife's hand, and said, "Madam, what do you think?" ”

The old lady hesitated a little, and said, "Well, I naturally think the same thing as the old man, let's talk about it slowly." ”

Before, because I was too shocked, I was in a bit of a hurry for a while, but now I think about it carefully, not to mention, what will happen to the second room, just the closeness of Shen Yuechen and Brother Ming'er is already hard to find.

Although she didn't dare to conclude anything now, if she married a new person again, she would definitely not be like Shen Yuechen.

Zhu Jintang listened to the words of his grandfather and grandmother, and his heart felt like a big stone had fallen, but just when he wanted to relax, he saw that his father and mother were silent, and his heart rose again.

The old lady saw his thoughts, and then asked Zhu Feng, "Boss, what do you mean?" ”

Zhu Feng coughed lightly when he heard this, cleared his throat and said, "My son also agrees to put things off for a while." ”

Recently, the atmosphere in the home can be described as extremely bad. For Shen Yuechen, for the second room, everyone is worried, and his wife Li's health is getting worse and worse, in case of relapse, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses.

Zhu Feng agreed to postpone the matter, not wanting to lose troops on his side before the second room made a move.

The opinions of the three were completely unified, and Li Shi was left alone.

The old lady softened: "the child, what about you?" Isn't your heart happy? ”

Li Shi bit his lower lip, and he was reluctant to nod his head in agreement.

The others didn't urge, only, the old lady comforted her softly: "Daughter-in-law, you have always been a person who takes the overall situation into account, this will be for Brother Ming'er's sake, bear with it a little more." The children cried and cried all day long, and in the end, it was not us who were distressed and tired. ”

After hearing this, Li Shi nodded slightly: "Then do it, I don't have anything to say." ”

Zhu Jintang breathed a sigh of relief, but Li Shi continued: "But it's all for Brother Ming. Jintang can not divorce his wife, but he must take a concubine as soon as possible. ”

The Li family has already made his biggest compromise, and the matter of taking a concubine must be prepared as soon as possible. Even if it's a concubine, if it doesn't work, you can still let Shen Yuechen raise it personally, and the concubine becomes a concubine, which is also a method.

Obviously, the Zhu family did not object to Li's proposal, but Zhu Jintang's heart was a little awkward.

He didn't want to take a concubine, but right now, at this juncture, he couldn't say no, otherwise he would be messing around without knowing the sky.

The old lady was the first to agree: "Well, it's a good thing to take a concubine, and there are many people in the family, and they are more angry." The Qin family and the Sun family, these will be useless people, it's time to add a few people. ”

Zhu Jintang didn't say yes or object, he just lowered his eyes and was silent.

Old Man Zhu glanced at him lightly, and immediately stroked his beard, "It's okay to be happy, but you also have to choose people." In my opinion, this matter should not be rushed, pick slowly, until you can choose a satisfactory one. ”

He could see that Zhu Jintang would be full of thoughts on Shen Yuechen's body, his wife was like jade, and he was weak and helpless, it was when he was pitiful and painful, how could he have the heart to look at other women? Unless it's a heavenly beauty, unless it's a fairy descending to earth...... Anyway, if you want Zhu Jintang to take care of it, you must not find a vulgar woman again.

The old man thought seriously, but Zhu Feng had a faint headache, he was tired for most of the day, and he just wanted to go back to the room early to rest. As soon as he thought of this, he got up to take his leave, and as he left, he patted his son on the shoulder and whispered, "You know more." Recently, because the elders have broken their hearts, don't let them down anymore, take care of the family, and the same outside, don't let others take advantage of it. ”

Zhu Jintang bowed his head, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Yes, the father's words, the son has firmly remembered them." ”

Li Shi had no choice but to make a decision, and he was still sullen and uncomfortable, and he didn't look at Zhu Jintang when he left, as if he was secretly a little angry.

Zhu Feng knew her temperament very well, and when he got out of the door, he slowly slowed down his pace, and said softly: "You don't have to be angry with Jintang, he did go a little too far this time, but he hasn't forgotten his duty yet." This will, things are not in a hurry to that extent, he is still young, and his blood is strong, so wait a minute. ”

Li Shi held back his grievances, but he didn't want to complain to his husband, so he only said: "Speaking of which, it's all my fault, I spoiled that kid in Jintang, and I completely spoiled it." ”

When Zhu Feng heard this, he shook his head with a smile, "He is an adult, and he should have his own principles." You have to take care of yourself, don't tire yourself out at this time. If you're sick, the second brother doesn't know how to toss? Besides, do you still want to choose someone for Jintang? ”

Li Shi didn't care about the eyes of the people, and grabbed her husband's arm while walking, and said in a slightly softened tone: "How dare I get sick, just such a bitter family that has been raised with great difficulty, I don't plan for him, who plans for him?" But the lord should pay more attention, lately, he always coughs at night......"

The two of them whispered close to themselves, but the original boring mood gradually calmed down.

At this time, in the upper room, the old lady was too tired to sit still.

Zhu Jintang felt guilty, so he stayed until the end.

Old Man Zhu didn't seem to be ready to go to bed yet, so he beckoned to him and said, "This day has been boring enough, let's go out for a walk together." ”

When Zhu Jintang heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward in person, helped him stand up and said, "Where does Grandpa want to go?" ”

"Well, just take a walk."

The grandfather and grandson walked side by side, the old lady raised her eyes, smiled helplessly, and explained to Mother Yang: "Tell the kitchen to hot wine and food." ”

Mother Yang smiled knowingly and "belched".

The old man and Zhu Jintang walked around the courtyard, and finally sat down in a pavilion, and before they could speak, Mother Yang brought someone to bring warm wine and food, as well as a few pastries.

Seeing this, the old man smiled silently, only waved his hand, and motioned for them to retreat.

Zhu Jintang picked up the wine jug and poured wine for his grandfather, "It's not too early, it's good for grandpa to drink a cup to warm his stomach, not to drink more." ”

The old man saw that he didn't pour himself a cup, so he said, "You can have a drink too, these days, you are also in a panic." ”

Zhu Jintang shook his head silently.

In front of his elders, he rarely complains about anything.

The old man took a sip of wine, smacked the taste carefully, and muttered: "This was originally your own house, and we old bones shouldn't care about so many ......."

Zhu Jintang hurriedly said: "It's all grandchildren who are not filial, and they can't take care of the housework, so you can worry about it." ”

The old man took another sip of wine: "It's true that we are worried, but you are the only one who is sad." Your kid is now an adult, and has his own principles and thoughts, but he is not as obedient as he was when he was a child. ”

Zhu Jintang smiled faintly.

The old man continued: "Don't blame your mother for being too harsh, she is really afraid that you will be wronged. Your mother has only one son like you in her life, how much effort did she spend to grow up, you know better than anyone in your heart. Therefore, she understands the pain better than anyone else. When you were a child, as long as you coughed, your mother's heart trembled, afraid that you would get sick, afraid that you would fall, afraid that you would be picky eaters, to be honest, she guarded you, and followed her own life! ”
