Chapter 349: Dedication (3)
Zhu Jintang once had such a person in his heart, but before he could cherish it, she left him.
He also once had a wife, although he never had a heart, but he also had a good time, but in the end, she died......
was born with a lonely personality, so that Zhu Jintang did not have any expectations for the love between men and women. However, God seemed to have played a big joke with him, and after going around and around for so long, he met Shen Yuechen.
According to his personality, it was impossible for a woman like Shen Yuechen to attract him. However, she still did it, and it grew firmly in his heart.
Zhu Jintang can't remember when he first fell in love with her, but he knew that he liked to see her, was quite attentive to her every word and deed, and admired her soft personality very much.
She seems to be weak, but in fact, she is still very strong in her heart, otherwise, how could she hold out alone until the end, until he comes back......
Zhu Jintang had also been to Cao's room before and sat down, but he only sat down.
For some reason, Cao's too flattering smiling face, and the thoughts he wanted to stay unconsciously faded a little.
Their eyes contain too many complex emotions, but they are not sincere enough. The more he looked at them, the more Shen Yuechen's face appeared in his mind, so he didn't really want to abandon the Cao family, but he didn't follow others, and he couldn't help himself.
Especially on a night like this, he hoped that the person around him would be Shen Yuechen, not someone else. Even if you can't linger, you can snuggle up to each other.
Shen Yuechen felt his heart fluctuate because of what he said, as if there were countless warm currents pouring into his chest in an instant, sweet, warm.
She couldn't say a word now, only raised her head slightly, and kissed him lightly on the forehead, without any lust, only with gentle gratitude.
Looking at him at this moment, Shen Yuechen's heart was full of gratitude, thanking him for being able to go through so many things again, and still leave her a true heart.
"You are very grateful for the kindness of Yuechen, Yuechen is very grateful, and it is the best and greatest blessing to meet you."
"It's also a blessing for us." Zhu Jintang's originally slightly drunken eyes gradually became clear and focused. Thinking of the previous suffering, and the various hardships that the two of them had experienced before, he was even more determined to cherish her, protect her, and never let anyone or anything disrupt their stable happiness!
Shen Yuechen approached him, gently put his arm on his waist, pressed his face to his chest, listened to his powerful heartbeat, and quietly counted: "One, two, three, four......"
Zhu Jintang heard the sound and smiled lightly: "Why do you always like to count my heartbeat?" ”
Shen Yuechen counted a few more times before saying, "Because I feel very down-to-earth." Because I have you by my side, I feel grounded. ”
She was a person who had died once, so the most beautiful sound in the world for her was not the silk bamboo instrument, but the sound of a living heartbeat, like a drumbeat, gently tapping her eardrums and her heart.
Zhu Jintang's chin lightly pressed against her chin and said, "I will always be by your side." ”
Shen Yuechen responded: "The concubine will always follow the uncle's side, no matter where you go, I will go wherever you go." ”
Zhu Jintang rubbed her hair lightly, only to feel that she was really smart.
He hadn't said anything, but she seemed to be aware of it.
Shen Yuechen was silent for a while, and then spoke again: "Although as the main room, you shouldn't say such things, but the concubine has always wanted to find a place for the Cao family to live in retirement...... If the uncle really has no attachment to them, then maybe they shouldn't continue to stay......"
Because of listening to Zhu Jintang's sincere words, Shen Yuechen was able to have the courage to say what was in his heart.
Zhu Jintang didn't gnaw, waiting for her to finish speaking.
He Shi's heart reminded the concubine body ruthlessly, the women in this inner courtyard have a fierce side, think about the previous Aunt Qin, there was also such a time when she was obsessed, although it was only for a short time, but it was a big mistake. As a woman, the concubine understands how crazy and excited a woman will be once she falls into the sea of vinegar and anger, and she will only think about revenge, revenge, and revenge......"
Zhu Jintang's eyes sank slightly, it turned out that she was worried about this, worried about the moss hidden in the dark corner.
"You are the hostess, and the affairs of the yard should be up to you. If you find them an eyesore, I can just let them go. ”
Ancient concubines were the most statusless existence, their status was almost between the subordinate and the master, neither considered a serious master, but also unable to get rid of the lowly status of being a slave.
A divorce is required to divorce a wife, but a divorce concubine does not need anything. There are many large families who will sell their unfavored concubines as if they were selling cheap goods, without any regard for the life or death of the parties.
There are also people who were sold by their relatives to large families as concubines because of lack of money at home, and signed a deed of sale.
If there is a time limit written on the deed of sale, then when the time limit expires, they can redeem themselves with money, and then leave the house, marry someone else, and get rid of the tragic fate of being concubines.
The Cao family, the Liu family and the Wang family were all sent to the Zhu family after signing a deed of sale, but their deed of sale was a death deed and they could not redeem themselves for the rest of their lives. But now, Shen Yuechen wants to make a fuss about these deeds of sale, turn the death deed into a living deed, and give them a chance to leave the Zhu family.
However, this matter must first ask Zhu Jintang to nod, as long as he can agree, then the elders will be easier to handle.
Zhu Jintang thought for a moment and said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Shen Yuechen said quietly: "Neither the Liu family nor the Wang family have given birth, so they can be released directly from the house." However, the Cao family is Zhu Ying's biological mother, and if she is released, I am afraid it will not be suitable. ”
Both the Liu family and the Wang family have not given birth, and there is no chance to have children in the future, so it is undoubtedly cruel to leave them behind.
It's not easy to stay alone in an empty room, not to mention that it's not a year or two, it's likely to be longer, longer.
Zhu Jintang groaned and said, "You want to let them all out of the house, but they may not be willing to leave." However, as long as it is your intention, I am willing to agree. Like I said before, all I need is you to suffice. ”
Shen Yuechen had never asked him for anything, and this should be the first time.
There are three children to take care of in the long house, and a fourth child is about to be welcomed. Zhu Ying and Brother Ming are just beginning to be sensible, Zhu Xiao is a toddler, and Brother Xuan is less than a year old, which is the weakest time. These children are his children, and they are all the children of the long house.
According to Shen Yuechen's personality, she will want to take care of every child, especially Brother Xuan, who is still in infancy, that is the child she gave birth to with half a life, and what she cares about most is him.
With tedious housework and four children to raise and take care of, it is a big problem for anyone to cope with it easily.
Shen Yuechen sighed: "It's not that the concubine body is not intolerant, it's just ......"
Zhu Jintang patted her on the back and said, "You don't have to explain anything, I understand." ”
The matter of the He family not only gave Shen Yuechen a wake-up call, but also a wake-up call for the Zhu family.
Some things, some people, always have to be guarded against.
Because of Zhu Jintang's understanding and arm bending, Shen Yuechen slept very soundly this night.
Early the next morning, Shen Yuechen sent the children to the old lady under the pretext of asking for peace.
When the old lady saw that the children were coming, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Oh, it's all right today." ”
Shen Yuechen also smiled and said: "Every day is at night, the children are sleepy, they always love to sleep, and they can't talk and laugh with you." So, I'm bringing them all here early this morning. ”
The old lady picked up Brother Ming'er's little face and kissed it, stroked Zhu Ying's braids, and said with satisfaction: "It's good, with them, we don't have to start sleepy as soon as we have a full meal." Yuechen, you just leave the children and go back to hide and be lazy. ”
Shen Yuechen replied with a smile: "Yes, Yuechen has this intention." ”
In fact, where did she want to hide and be lazy, she just wanted to send the children over, and then find the Cao family and them to talk.
There are too many children, wandering inside and out, many things are inconvenient to say, and many things are inconvenient.
When the maid came to pass the word, Cao was sitting in front of the dressing mirror, looking at his empty jewelry box in a daze.
It's only been a few months, and she's about to lose all the money she's saved in the past few years.
The maids around her also persuaded her not to mix with those mothers-in-law anymore, but she always couldn't control herself, always thinking that she would be able to return to her capital next time, so she only took out the white silver and lost, and only regretted it when she lost.
There is no high or low table, only winning or losing. Although the Cao family is an aunt, she gets together with those mothers-in-law, and her identity is there, but it is not easy to repay her debts when she loses money.
Those people's mouths are stronger than the other, and just saying a few cool words to her is enough to make the Cao family uncomfortable. Therefore, she would rather lose as much as she wants than let them speak ill of herself behind her back.
Before, she carried the little oil and water that Shen Yuechen had saved, and she would have almost lost it, leaving only a few golden hairpins, which were still valuable. However, these are also one of the few pieces of jewelry she has.
At this time, when he heard that the eldest grandmother wanted to see him, Cao was slightly stunned at first, and then began to be a little nervous.
The eldest grandmother hadn't thought of her for a long time, and she even excused herself from her usual greetings, and she seemed to be very busy. Why did you suddenly get interested today? Did you know about her gambling money?
