Chapter 322: Sesame Mung Beans Are No Small Matter (3)
The old man had no intention of letting Shen Yuechen ask more about the second room, but the old lady thought that Shen Yuechen was now in charge of family affairs, and she should be close to He Yalin, so it would be more convenient to talk and do things like this.
It's rare to see that when the old couple disagrees. Shen Yuechen left in a hurry with great discernment, leaving only the old couple to discuss slowly.
The old lady looked at the old man and said, "Since Yuechen has to take care of family affairs, she will inevitably have to deal with the second room." Today, the old man suddenly said that she should not bother more, isn't it a hint to her that she doesn't have to worry about the affairs of the second room? ”
The old man groaned: "You have always been in charge of family affairs. However, the second room is still for Zhu Jun and the second daughter-in-law to watch and do, let's not say much. ”
The old lady was slightly surprised when she heard this, and always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say what was wrong, and she always felt that listening to her husband's tone seemed to make the long room and the second room draw a clear line and not interfere with each other......
Seeing that his wife had been staring at him thoughtfully, the old man slowly stood up and said, "Okay, the children are scattered, let's not sit like this, I'll go to the garden to walk the birds." ”
The old lady got up and saw him off, looked at his somewhat hunched back, and sighed helplessly.
has been a husband and wife for decades, and she doesn't need to say a lot of things so clearly, and she can vaguely guess it, but things haven't developed to that point, and there are some things that she doesn't want to say too early.
After coming out of the upper room, Shen Yuechen went back to his yard to explain his errand. She has been in charge of the accounts for almost half a month, and she has more or less already counted in her heart, and it will not be like the first few days, occasionally busy until the middle of the night, and it is difficult to sort out the clue.
Arranging food, drink and clothing is not the most difficult for Shen Yuechen. The most difficult thing for her is to give gifts to people, although the Zhu family is not as famous as before, but it is still a rich family, with complicated human contacts, big and small things, and it is quite troublesome to entertain.
Shen Yuechen's personality is quiet, not very easy to join in the fun, and he doesn't like to go out.
In the past, when Li was still there, she did most of the things like going out as a guest and entertaining female dependents. Now, when the Li family is out on a long journey, Shen Yuechen himself has no choice but to take over these errands.
Red and white ceremonies, weddings and funerals, it is not easy to prepare for everything.
For this reason, Shen Yuechen went to the old lady to borrow last year's account book, and looked at them one by one to see what rules the Li family followed, especially the expenses on the silver coins.
The same thing, as much silver as the Li family, she spends as much silver, neatly and well, no more, no less.
More is waste, less is inappropriate, so everything remains the same, there is no need for her to make a fuss about the face of the Zhu family, highlighting how capable and virtuous she is......
Be a competent woman, although it is good. But Shen Yuechen knows that she is a person with no ambitions, what she wants has always been a simple life, and it is enough to live every day warmly and steadfastly.
Today, she is still cautious and conservative in dealing with the big and small things in life, but she is just no longer as cautious as before.
Shen Yuechen himself can't say well, why did he become a little lax...... Maybe it's just because you don't want to live too tired and want to enjoy life.
Shen Yuechen remembered that he had read a sentence in a book before, "You can't make an orange that everyone likes." The implication is that you can't make everybody like you.
Shen Yuechen has always thought that he is still a relatively timid person in his bones, because he is timid and cowardly, so he is willing to swallow his anger and live without a temper.
Recalling the past, those days spent carefully, Shen Yuechen doesn't regret it now, but feels a little tired.
Shen Yuechen is very satisfied with his current situation and is very content.
Now she doesn't want to spend all her time trying her best to please others, and she doesn't want to make herself nervous and unhappy for the eyes of others. She just wants to take care of all the things that the elders have explained, and then try to spend time with the children.
Children grow up in a flash, so she doesn't want to miss those precious and beautiful moments of growth.
After explaining everything that should be explained, Shen Yuechen hurriedly cleaned up, washed her face, and hurriedly asked Chun Ming to hug her son Xuan'er and bring her over.
Not long after the child came, Zhu Jintang suddenly returned.
When he saw that the child was also there, he was about to reach out to touch it, but he saw Shen Yuechen grabbing him and said, "Uncle, let's go wash your hands first." ”
Zhu Jintang looked down at his hands, he didn't feel dirty, but he still washed them obediently, and wiped his face by the way.
Shen Yuechen knew that Zhu Jintang was a person with a slight habit of cleanliness, but when he went out, he would inevitably have to deal with money, and besides, it would be cold and windy, and even his hands would be cool.
was reminded by her like this, Zhu Jintang also reacted, rubbed his hands busily, and put them to his mouth again.
Brother Xuan can't sit now, so he can only lie on the small bed and flutter his little hands and feet.
Zhu Jintang waited for his hands to warm up a little before he grabbed his little feet and pinched them gently.
He just pinched it, and Brother Xuan grinned, looking at him with crooked eyebrows, as if he thought it was funny.
Zhu Jintang hurriedly pinched it again, making Brother Xuan laugh again.
Zhu Jintang is not very good at holding children, and he wants to have a rare son, but he is afraid that he will not have a weight in his hands, so he doesn't dare to hug him if he wants to.
Shen Yuechen saw that he was eager to try, so he made a show first, hugged Brother Xuan'er, and then carefully handed him into his arms.
Zhu Jintang walked around the room with the fleshy brother in his arms, smiling with satisfaction.
"When Brother Ming was a child, I almost didn't hug him much. So, the hand is very raw. ”
Brother Ming was frail and sickly when he was a child, and he cried endlessly at every turn. Zhu Jintang really didn't dare to touch him easily, and occasionally thought about it, so he went over to look at him twice, and left in a hurry, for fear of provoking him to cry.
Shen Yuechen could understand his mood at that time, and only said: "It's not good for children to hold too much, and they will become very clingy when they grow up." ”
Zhu Jintang looked at the son in his arms and said with a smile: "If you are sticky, you will be clingy." I'm so happy to be stuck with such a little guy. ”
Shen Yuechen also smiled and said: "Uncle, don't get used to him too much, he can't leave anyone by his side for a moment when he turns around, and Uncle should feel a headache." ”
"Then I'll take him with me every day." Zhu Jintang said with a relaxed face.
In the past, he didn't accompany Brother Ming for various reasons, and he wanted to make up for Brother Xuan and do his best as a father.
