Chapter 184: Contradiction (3)
Zhu Ying and Zhu Xiao are both concubines, and they were originally raised by Shen Yuechen, but during the time when she was not at home, the two children were taken care of by their aunts.
Cao is Zhu Ying's biological mother, and it is understandable to take care of her food, clothing, housing, transportation, and daily life. However, Zhu Xiao's biological mother, Sun, is now crazy and delirious, let alone taking care of the children, and even dressing and eating by herself is a problem.
Zhu Ying is already four years old, but Zhu Xiao is not yet a year old, which is the age when someone needs to take care of her.
The Liu family and the Wang family are both young and have never given birth to children, so the Li family is very uneasy, and only handed over Zhu Xiao to his personal grandmother Zhao Mama to take care of herself.
Shen Yuechen has always been thinking about the children in her heart, so before dinner started, she instructed Chun Ming to bring Zhu Ying over, and let Cui Xin go to the main courtyard, inform Mama Zhao, and let her bring the girl over.
Because of some cold, Zhu Ying was wrapped in a small quilt. The pink quilt and pink little face make her look more and more cute.
Shen Yuechen stretched out his hands to hug her, but Zhu Ying was slightly stunned at first, and then instinctively stretched out a small hand from the quilt, and then whispered to her mother.
From the slave maid to Shen Yuechen's arms, it was only a moment's work, Zhu Ying sat firmly on Shen Yuechen's lap, raised her head and looked at her face carefully.
Shen Yuechen touched her head, pasted her little face again, smelled the milk fragrance on her body, and was very pleased.
Although they have suffered a lot of sins during this time, they are all fine, safe and healthy.
Cao sat next to him and ate tea, waiting to see them affectionately and affectionately, with bitter and sweet in his heart.
Subsequently, Zhu Xiao was also hugged by her mother-in-law. She had just been sleeping, but she suddenly woke up, looked around with big black eyes, and suddenly began to cry with some uneasiness.
The mother-in-law who hugged her was taken aback, and hurriedly slapped and coaxed.
Zhu Xiao was congenitally deficient, and even her crying voice was weak, sounding like a kitten.
Zhu Ying was very intimate, seeing that her sister was crying a lot, she hurriedly got off Shen Yuechen's body, ran to the mother-in-law and beckoned to her, "Let me take a look at my little sister." ”
When the woman heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then squatted down again, looked at Zhu Ying and said, "What do you have to say, Miss?" ”
Who knows, Zhu Ying just gently held Zhu Xiao's little hand, kissed it, and said softly: "Sister is obedient, don't cry or cry." ”
It's strange to say, after hearing her words, Zhu Xiao cried and cried, and then slowly quieted down, only blinking her eyes, looking at Zhu Ying, holding her fingers and not letting go.
Shen Yuechen looked at the two children getting close, and her heart was at ease.
Children are the most innocent, like is like, close is close, unlike adults, always full of so many calculations.
Suddenly, Zhu Jintang came back from the upper room. However, to his surprise, his face was slightly ugly, as if he was sulking.
Shen Yuechen saw that his expression was different,
The Cao family and the others hadn't seen Zhu Jintang for several months, and when they met him, everyone couldn't help but be a little excited and happy, and hurriedly lined up to salute and say goodbye.
Seeing that they were all there, Zhu Jintang's expression eased slightly, and he only said, "You are all here." ”
Cao's gaze kept turning around Zhu Jintang's body, and when he saw him bowing his head and talking to Zhu Ying, he hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Zhu Ying, wanting to take the opportunity to attract his attention.
However, Zhu Jintang obviously cared more about Zhu Ying, and when he saw her tilting her head and smiling at herself, he clapped his hands and wanted to hug her personally.
"Come, let me see, have you grown?"
Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, and since Zhu Ying was born, the number of times he has held the child is only a handful, and it is only two or three times at most......
Zhu Ying was very well-behaved, and as soon as she arrived in Zhu Jintang's arms, she took the initiative to stretch out her arm, wrapped her arms around his neck, and quietly did not speak.
Zhu Jintang hugged her and walked two steps, before nodding and saying, "En...... It's a lot heavier than before. ”
Cao Shi immediately smiled and said, "Children grow the fastest, and they grow up in the blink of an eye." Uncle carefully tired. ”
Zhu Jintang shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "I'm not tired, you all sit down and talk, don't stand, it's weird and restrained." ”
After he finished speaking, he sat next to Shen Yuechen directly with Zhu Ying in his arms, and saw that she was looking at him with a smile.
"I haven't seen each other for a few months, and the children have grown up."
Zhu Jintang also smiled faintly when he heard this, and then, holding Zhu Ying's little face and taking a closer look, he suddenly felt that her eyebrows and eyes were very similar to his own.
It is said that the daughter looks like her father, and it makes sense to think about it...... Rarely had he looked at the child so closely.
Cao sat on the side and watched, only to feel very surprised.
Zhu Jintang in front of her still looked like that person, but she always felt that something about him had become different.
He never smiled, rarely got close to his children, rarely ...... I want to be so easy-going now.
I don't know if I haven't seen him for too long, or if he's really changed. Cao Shi was slightly stunned in his heart, only feeling a little surprised and surprised.
She has been married to Zhu Jintang for many years, and she has long been used to seeing his cold and indifferent appearance, but now it makes her feel a little uncomfortable.
He is so easy-going, it will definitely not be because of Zhu Ying, nor will it be because of Zhu Xiao. Don't think about it, the people who can make him change like this in the Zhu family, except for a few elders, only Shen Yuechen is left.
Although she didn't want to admit it, Zhu Jintang's kindness to Shen Yuechen was clear in her eyes and in her heart. In the past, when he treated the Qin clan best, it was nothing more than that, but now, it is already more than that.
Cao lowered his eyes slightly, and couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart: People are more angry than people. A good number of lives are set at birth. I'm afraid that even if I fight for a lifetime and fight for a lifetime, I won't be able to win such a favor.
The Cao family was a little disheartened, but Shen Yuechen was also secretly thinking to himself, why was Zhu Jintang's face so gloomy......
After laughing and talking for a while, everyone went back to their places, except for the children.
Brother Ming, Zhu Ying and Zhu Xiao sat together to play, and Wu Ma and Cui Xin stood aside, guarding the three of them intently, for fear that something would go wrong accidentally.
Children play together, not afraid of anything else, just afraid of being light and heavy, crying one, hurting the other.
Brother Ming used to disdain to stay with Zhu Ying and them, and he only felt embarrassed and faceless, but now, he is completely enjoying it.
At this time, Shen Yuechen and Zhu Jintang sat together, chatting softly with the laughter of the children.
Shen Yuechen asked bluntly: "After the uncle came back from the upper room, his face was ugly, I don't know what's wrong?" ”
Zhu Jintang pondered for a while before he said, "I just talked to my father and told him everything about the capital. After speaking, he looked up at Shen Yuechen, and his eyes seemed to have a deep meaning.
Shen Yuechen's heart sank, but her face was as usual: "Really? What does that mean father? ”
Zhu Jintang gently held her hand and replied, "It doesn't matter what my father means, you are my wife." ”
Shen Yuechen's eyes flashed slightly, knowing that Zhu Feng must be very dissatisfied with himself. Presumably, Zhu Jintang must have said a lot for himself, but the effect was very little, so his mood was so low.
She then took his hand back, straining slightly.
She believes in him in her heart, the two of them have experienced so many things, and the trust and affection between each other are increasing day by day, so some words can be understood without having to say them explicitly.
"What is the uncle going to do?" Shen Yuechen was still calm.
Zhu Jintang said in a deep voice: "Right now, your body is still important, although my father and mother are anxious, they also care about you." So, there is still a turning point, and there is still room for improvement. ”
Turnaround and leeway...... Shen Yuechen heard these words, only to feel that his mood was even heavier......
……
At the same time, Zhu Feng also sat opposite his wife Li Shi, and he had nothing to hide from Shen Yuechen, and told Li Shi the truth straightforwardly.
After hearing this, Li Shi was stunned for a few seconds, and then shed tears sadly and aggrievedly.
Zhu Feng couldn't see her like this, and frowned: "What are you crying and crying for?" When she had an accident, we all thought about it......"
Li Shi didn't wait for him to finish, then objected: "It was the beginning, when she was in the capital, her life was dying, I thought she wouldn't survive." But now, she is alive, but in exchange for a crippled body, what is the use! ”
Although Li Shi's words were not good, they poked Zhu Feng's heart every sentence. In their opinion, a daughter-in-law who can't have children is no different from a wasted person.
To be honest, Li would rather let her die like that than settle like this. Moreover, in this current situation, the aggressive momentum of the second room, if they knew that the heirs of the long house were hopeless, wouldn't it be even more endless.
"No, I'm going to find the old lady and let her old man call the shots......"
Zhu Feng saw that his wife was emotional, so he only said: "Nonsense! At this time, what are you still tossing! Besides, it's useless for you to be in a hurry about this matter, this time things are no more difficult than before. Jintang's kid...... Speaking in his own hands, he recognized the child regardless of her. ”
When Li Shi heard this, he was shocked and said: "People are like this, what's the use of protecting?" ”
Her son, she knew it in her own heart.
Zhu Jintang is not the kind of person who is indecisive and has a long love for children.
Zhu Feng then sighed and shook his head.
How could he not know what kind of person his son was? However, standing in front of him, he never forgot what Zhu Jintang said.
Since he was a child, Zhu Jintang had never asked him for anything, but this time, he asked himself to leave Shen Yuechen and stay by his side. Such actions and words undoubtedly show that he was moved by his true feelings and sincerity this time.
