Chapter 290: Shock
As the days passed, Shen Yuechen's body became heavier and heavier, and he was careful in his actions, but the whole person looked very energetic, always smiling and radiant.
The chores in the yard have always been handled by Wu's mother herself, and she rarely needs to worry about it. Tianxianglou's business is good and bad, and Mama Song takes care of it very carefully, but there is nothing that needs to be subsidized.
Idle is also idle, Shen Yuechen often goes to the yard to walk around, because of the inconvenience of her body, she doesn't dare to go far, just go back and forth, moving her muscles and bones.
Sometimes, she will also go to Zhu Jintang's study to sit, where there is a side room to rest, and if she is tired, she can lie down for a while.
Zhu Jintang's study is not very spacious, because there are rows of bookshelves, and the shelves are full of all kinds of books.
Li Shi said that Zhu Jintang has liked to read since he was a child, and Shen Yuechen looked at the room full of books and let out a shallow sigh.
She sat on the chair that Zhu Jintang often sat on, still distracted, but she heard the maid outside hurriedly report. "Grandma, the old lady of the in-laws is here."
Shen Yuechen hurriedly held Chun Ming's hand, slowly stood up, and said softly: "Go and let someone prepare chrysanthemum tea." ”
Chun Ming responded: "Miss, don't worry, the slave maid has already asked people to prepare." ”
Old Mrs. Shen felt a little cold a while ago, and her body had been uncomfortable, so she didn't dare to come over to visit Shen Yuechen, for fear that she would be infected with her illness.
The old lady Shen saw that she was so good, so she came to visit, thinking that the grandparents and grandchildren had not seen each other for more than a month, so the old lady missed it very much.
Compared with Shen Yuechen's face, the old lady was more concerned about her belly.
The old lady looked at her bulging belly, and smiled: "It's big, it's big, it looks a lot bigger than before." ”
Shen Yuechen smiled, deliberately got up and sat down next to the old lady, and said softly: "I haven't seen you for a month, but my grandmother's body is all right?" Do you still have a dry mouth and cough at night? ”
Old Mrs. Shen nodded, holding her hand, only to feel that her was warm, not as warm as before, which showed that her body was well maintained. "It's all so good. If it's not good, I don't dare to come and see you. ”
Shen Yuechen smiled and said, "Grandmother doesn't have to be so careful. ”
Old Lady Shen said seriously: "It's better to be careful in everything." ”
While speaking, the old lady's fingers inadvertently touched the smooth and warm jade bracelet on Shen Yuechen's wrist, then lowered her head slightly, reached out and gently rolled up her sleeves, only to see that there was an extra pair of jade bracelets inlaid with gold and jade on her hand, and she couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, what a delicate gadget." After saying that, he lifted the bracelet on her hand and looked at it very carefully for a while.
Shen Yuechen smiled and said, "This is what the eldest lady rewarded me after the Dragon Boat Festival." ”
When Old Lady Shen heard this, a hint of surprise flashed on her face, and then she lowered her eyes and looked at it for a while, before she said, "That's really rare." This thing looks exquisite, but at first glance it is not an ordinary thing. ”
Shen Yuechen said quietly: "The eldest lady said that it was her dowry. ”
Old Lady Shen nodded knowingly. Xindao, as a mother-in-law, Li should have been more attentive to Shen Yuechen. Thinking of her previous difficulties with Shen Yuechen, the old lady felt depressed in her heart.
For the sake of the children, there is nothing to worry about in the past.
Shen Yuechen told the old lady the news of Zhu Jintang's return as soon as possible. One is to make her happy, and the other is to relieve her worries.
Sure enough, the old lady sighed deeply when she heard this, and it felt like a big stone had been unloaded in her heart.
To be honest, she has always been haunted by the results of the last divination. Some things are indescribable. Therefore, it is better to believe that there is something and not that it is not.
Xu Yes, she was too concerned about it, so she suddenly fell ill......
"Grandmother will be relieved." Shen Yuechen looked at her face and said.
Old Lady Shen frowned slightly, then raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Yes, then we can rest assured." ”
These days, it's not peaceful inside and outside the city. The old lady originally wanted to invite someone in again to calculate the feng shui fortune, but after listening to Shen Yuechen's words, she couldn't help but dispel this idea.
It seems that it will have to be replaced. If it is not allowed, then the Tao is not deep.
The old lady was relieved of Shen Yuechen's current situation and went back happily.
As soon as she walked on her front feet, the sky outside suddenly became gloomy, as if it was going to rain again.
Shen Yuechen walked to the window, frowned slightly, and said, "It's rare to see a good weather, how can it become gloomy." ”
Chun Ming stepped forward, closed the window and said, "Yes, this year's rain is extraordinarily much, and it is endless, which is annoying." ”
Although Shen Yuechen didn't feel upset, looking at such weather, he would inevitably feel depressed.
Chun Ming helped Shen Yuechen to sit aside, "It's about to get windy, do you want to add some clothes?" ”
When Shen Yuechen heard this, she really felt a little cold on her shoulders, so she said, "Well, it seems to be colder than just now." ”
She turned her head to look out the window again, looked at the gloomy sky, and said quietly: "I hope that grandmother can rush home soon, so as not to get rained." ”
The old man's body is not as good as before, and it is easy to catch a cold, especially the grandmother's body is just right, and she is most afraid of blowing cold wind.
Chun Ming said lightly: "Miss, don't worry, the way back is not far, if you leave quickly, it will only be half an hour." ”
Shen Yuechen nodded slightly, "Yes, fortunately, it's not far away,"
Sure enough, in the evening, it began to rain heavily. Although the rain was not heavy, it disturbed Shen Yuechen's sleep.
It's been a long time since she's been like this.
In the past, she was always light, and she would wake up at the slightest movement. However, since she became pregnant, her sleep quality has improved a lot.
But this night, she didn't know what was wrong with her, she always felt that her body was not happy, her heart was not happy, she tossed and turned, and she couldn't sleep no matter how she lay down.
Maybe the rain outside was too loud, or she slept too much during the day, Shen Yuechen lay on the bed with the quilt in her arms, and sighed helplessly.
Cuixin, who was keeping vigil, heard the movement, and hurriedly lifted the curtain, and saw her lying on her side, burying her face in the quilt, moaning quietly, and couldn't help but be stunned, and then she thought of something, and asked, "Miss, is your leg cramping again?" ”
Shen Yuechen answered in the quilt, and reached out to rub her legs, but she had no choice but to have a bulging belly......
Cui Xin sat on the edge of the bed, and hurriedly reached out to gently rub her calves for her, the strength was neither light nor heavy, and carefully exerted her strength.
This is not the first time, so Cui Xin has no hurry to deal with it.
Shen Yuechen gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and lasted for about a minute or so, before the pain slowly disappeared, and was replaced by a soft and weak sour feeling.
Shen Yuechen sighed lightly, and Cui Xin hurriedly said: "Miss is suffering, can the slave prepare some hot water for you to soak your feet?" ”
Shen Yuechen saw a slight sweat on his forehead in pain, raised his face from the quilt, and nodded slightly.
Chun Ming covered her with a quilt, and then turned around and called the others to prepare hot water together.
Shen Yuechen sat up slowly, waited for a while, and saw two maids come in with wooden barrels, bring them to her, and carefully store hot water in them.
Chun Ming also came in with her clothes on, she first wiped her hands, and then tried the water temperature a few times before raising her head and saying, "Miss, the water temperature is just right." ”
Shen Yuechen stretched his legs into the wooden barrel, and the slightly hot water instantly wrapped his legs, relieving Fang Cai's pain at once.
Chun Ming gently picked up the hot water, kept rubbing her calves, and asked softly, "How is it?" Does the young lady feel better? ”
Shen Yuechen nodded and smiled reluctantly: "It's much better." ”
However, although the pain in my leg has subsided, the dull feeling in my heart has not diminished at all.
Shen Yuechen couldn't help but smooth his chest, and secretly said strange in his heart. There are also times when the body is occasionally uncomfortable. But this is the first time that I have felt so uncomfortable for no reason today.
After tossing and turning, when Shen Yuechen lay down again, it was already the third watch.
At this moment, she has no sleepiness, and she feels that some places on her body are not comfortable all night, but it is not specifically what is bad, but she is tired and abnormal, and she can't sleep for a long time, which makes people feel very hard.
She lay quietly on the bed until the sky was faintly bright, and then she suddenly realized that the child in her belly had been surprisingly honest all day yesterday, including the evening, and had not moved at all.
Shen Yuechen touched her stomach a little uneasily, and said silently in her heart: How can it be so quiet. Usually I have to toss for a long time, but today I don't move at all......
Shen Yuechen thought about it, but still felt that it was safe, and asked Dr. Lu to come and have a look.
The genius was bright, and Dr. Lu hurried there.
He saw that Shen Yuechen's face was not good, so he said: "These days are damp and cool, grandma must take care of her body." Your body is already cold, and if you get cold, it will be very troublesome. ”
Shen Yuechen nodded slightly: "I pay attention to keeping warm, and I didn't catch a cold, but I didn't sleep well last night." ”
Dr. Lu said clearly: "Is the fetus moving too often?" Makes it easy for you to sleep. ”
"No, quite the opposite, this kid barely moved yesterday. That's why I don't feel very reassured. ”
When Dr. Lu heard this, he hurriedly took out his hand pillow and rested it on the bed, preparing to diagnose Shen Yuechen's pulse.
Dr. Lu still put on that fixed posture, twisting his beard with one hand, touching the pulse with the other, lowering his eyes slightly, looking thoughtful.
After about a cup of tea, Doctor Lu raised his hand and said calmly: "Grandma's pulse is smooth and smooth, and there is no big problem. It's just that if the grandmother doesn't rest well, the lack of qi and blood will affect the stability of the fetus, so you must relax and rest well. ”
Shen Yuechen nodded in agreement, "Yes, I have written down everything you said." ”
Seeing that the child was fine, Shen Yuechen was relieved, thinking that she was unstable yesterday, maybe because of the pregnancy reaction, and she was sensitive and worried for a while.
Dr. Lu just told her a few words, and left in a hurry.
If you want to replenish qi and blood, food supplements are better than medicine supplements.
Shen Yuechen listened to the doctor's words, but she couldn't help but be distracted, she didn't see anyone all day, she just lay on the bed peacefully, and she couldn't sleep. However, closing your eyes and nourishing your mind is also good for your body.
Li sent someone to come twice, and when he saw that she was asleep, he only put down her things, and did not dare to alarm easily.
Because of this continuous rainy day, Li Shi's heart was also a little irritable.
However, he is not the only one who is in a bad mood today.
When Zhu Feng came back from outside, he also had a gloomy face, and his expression seemed to be displeased.
Li Shi has been a husband and wife with him for decades, and he knows his temperament best. At this time, seeing him with a straight face and frowning, he knew that he had encountered a big thing.
Zhu Feng usually doesn't like to write his emotions on his face, and once he changes his complexion, it is something of some weight.
Seeing that he was not happy, Li Shi hurriedly waved his hand to the maids beside him, signaling them all to go down, so as not to stay in the house like a group and annoy the old man.
Li Shi personally held the tea and handed it to Zhu Feng, and said softly: "Master, this day has been hard, drink tea to moisten your throat." ”
Zhu Feng took the tea and didn't raise his eyelids, just sat there frowning and pondering.
Li Shi sat down next to him and asked, "What's wrong with the master?" How is it sullen? ”
Zhu Feng groaned slightly: "It's not because of that second child. ”
When Li Shi heard that it was related to the second room, he suddenly came to his senses, "Second brother?" What did he do again? ”
Zhu Feng didn't want to tell her the ins and outs of the matter, so he only replied: "It's not an old problem, I make decisions without permission, and when I decide things with outsiders, I don't even say hello." ”
Although Zhu Jun is the second master of the Zhu family, he still has no right to decide on major matters.
Zhu Feng was very busy in the past two days for the matter of collecting grain, so he asked Zhu Jun to meet with several foreign businessmen for dinner on his behalf to discuss the matter of selling and purchasing goods.
It stands to reason that there are clear rules and prices in the store for this shipment and purchase, and it is not allowed to tamper with it without permission. But Zhu Jun poisoned a few glasses of water and wine, so he took matters into his own hands and lowered the price by one percent.
In normal times, Zhu Feng could have turned a blind eye, but now, at home and abroad, it was a critical time, and his words so lightly made the Zhu family lose thousands of taels of silver......
Zhu Feng was already very upset, and he was naturally even more annoyed by his trouble, and called Zhu Jun aside, which was a reprimand.
Zhu Jun is also a face-saving person, and when he was reprimanded by his eldest brother like this, he was naturally unconvinced, and he returned a few words on the spot.
The two brothers quarreled directly, and then almost made a move. Fortunately, the entourage around persuaded the two of them to stop, so they didn't make any big trouble.
Zhu Feng didn't know his younger brother Zhu Jun's thoughts, he just wasn't convinced and didn't obey. But the more he is like this, the more Zhu Feng has to press him everywhere, control him, and make him lower his head.
Zhu Feng didn't say the specific details, but Li Shi could imagine it if he guessed a little.
"The second brother is a man with low eyes, and although he thinks little in his heart, if he really wants to do it himself, I'm afraid he won't be able to do anything."
Zhu Feng had a calm face and didn't speak for a while.
Suddenly, the maid on the old lady's side came over with a white face, saying that she was asking Zhu Feng and Li Shi to go to the room immediately.
Zhu Feng thought that it was a quarrel between himself and his younger brother, but the second elder of the family knew about it, but when he got to the upper room, he saw the old man Zhu sitting alone on the main seat, his eyes were slightly bloodshot, and his expression was as stiff as iron, which made people feel very wrong.
Seeing this, Zhu Feng's expression was dazed, he didn't expect that the quarrel between himself and his younger brother could make his father angry like this, and he was about to step forward to admit his mistake, but he saw that there was still a person kneeling in the room.
The man was prostrate on the ground, almost with his head and face pressed to the ground, his shoulders trembling, accompanied by a few suppressed whimperes, as if crying.
Zhu Feng sensitively glanced around the room, only to see that his mother was not there.
Li Shi also felt that the atmosphere was wrong, she lowered her head and glanced at the person on the ground, only to feel familiar, and after a closer look, she found that he was Zhu Sanjin who came back to report the news before.
In just this moment, Li's heart thumped a few times, she raised her eyes to look at the old man, her voice was tense, and asked, "Old lady, what's wrong?" ”
Old Man Zhu was silent, his face was extremely gloomy, he just raised his hand and pointed to Zhu Sanjin opposite.
Zhu Feng suddenly seemed to understand something, walked up to Zhu Sanjin with an arrow, grabbed his neckline, asked him to raise his head, and asked, "The eldest young master asked you to come back to report the news?" ”
That Zhu Sanjin was completely man-made and gray-faced, completely devoid of the neatness and neatness he had when he came back last time, his eye sockets were deep-set, his panicked eyes were full of tears, and he said tremblingly: "Big young master...... Something happened to the eldest young master! ”
It's just a few words, but in everyone's ears, it was a deafening loud noise, Zhu Feng was stunned, and his body shook a little unsteadily. Li Shi didn't react at all, looked at Zhu Sanjin as if he didn't understand, and asked in a trembling voice, "Who had an accident?" You repeat. ”
Zhu Sanjin lay on the ground again and said in a mosquito-like voice, "Something happened to the eldest young master...... The little ones can't find the big young master. ”
Old Man Zhu has heard this sentence back and forth three times, and every time he hears it, it is like being cut out of his heart by a sharp blade, and his flesh and blood are blurred in pain.
The old lady was also frightened all of a sudden, and was directly carried by the maids to the second room to relax, and she hadn't woken up yet.
The room was silent, and Li Shi was about to open her mouth to ask, but she found that she could no longer make any sound, and it felt like someone had stuffed a big stone in her throat, blocking her from speaking and breathless.
She subconsciously reached out and pounded her chest, but unfortunately no matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't breathe, and finally her eyes went black, and the whole person fell straight down.
