There was a sense of reproach in Li's tone, but also a little helplessness and doting.

Originally, I had prepared well at home, but because of the whim of the children, the preparations at home were all in vain.

Li Shi was still not used to living in this kind of rural place, so he only stayed for three or two days, and then took Brother Ming back to the Zhu family's mansion first.

The old lady stayed a few more days, but only five or six days, and she was not in good health, and she did not like to move around, so she still liked to go back to live in the big house.

Shen Yuechen stayed in the Grange for confinement in a down-to-earth manner, waking up by the child's crying every morning, and looking at the child's side face and drowsy every night.

As a human being, her life has never been so easy as it is now.

The days passed. brought it to the day of the full moon of her daughter, and it also happened to be Brother Xuan's first birthday.

All the good things seem to come together.

Shen Yuechen gave her daughter a milk name, Zhu Zhu. The child's name must be taken by the elders according to the family tree.

Zhu Zhu sleeps in the arms of adults almost every day, whether it is Shen Yuechen or Zhu Jintang, or Wu Ma and Cui Xin, as long as there is a chance, it is rare to pick her up.

Xu is because of premature birth, Zhu Zhu's child likes to sleep very much, so he feels very well-behaved.

Shen Yuechen put almost all his thoughts on Zhu Zhu's body, and his eyes were reluctant to leave her body for a moment.

However, she didn't forget Brother Xuan and Zhu Ying. Brother Xuan'er's first birthday ceremony, according to the customs of the countrymen here, is simple, but very warm.

Brother Ming was taken back by the old lady early in the morning, but Brother Xuan and Zhu Ying stayed by her side all the time.

Zhu Ying has been a little worried in the past two days, and Shen Yuechen has already seen it.

Indeed, seeing that everyone loves Zhu Zhu so much, she will definitely have an idea in her heart.

Like adults, children are just as fond of love.

That afternoon, Shen Yuechen coaxed Zhu Zhu to sleep, and then took Zhu Ying to the fields outside for a walk.

Although he was followed by the maid, he was far away.

Zhu Ying hasn't had the opportunity to be alone with her mother like this for a long time, and her mood is a little excited, and it's a little complicated.

Shen Yuechen sat with her on the handkerchief on the spread, and in front of her was an endless green and secluded field.

Zhu Ying kept holding her hand, and only asked after half a sound: "Mother, when are we going home?" ”

Shen Yuechen glanced at her: "Do you want to go back?" Isn't it good here? ”

Zhu Ying shook her head again and again: "It's very good here, but I miss Brother Ming." ”

The two of them grew up together, and they had never been separated for such a long time.

Shen Yuechen touched her head and said, "It's almost over, I'll go back in a few days." ”

Zhu Ying smiled happily when she heard this.

Shen Yuechen immediately asked, "Without Brother Ming'er, Ying'er is very lonely, isn't it?" ”

Zhu Ying nodded instinctively, but then felt that she shouldn't answer like this, so she shook her head again and said, "No." ”

Shen Yuechen's eyes condensed slightly when she heard this, she held her little hand in the palm of her hand, and said, "Ying'er, is it okay to promise your mother one thing?" ”

Zhu Ying crooked her little brain and said okay.

"In the future, no matter what happens, don't lie to your mother, you have to be an honest child."

Zhu Ying's eyes blinked, she didn't dare to look at her, she just stared down at her little shoes.

Shen Yuechen took her into his arms and said gently: "Honest children are the bravest. You may be a girl, but you have to be brave. ”

The beginning of a lie, that is, the beginning of emotional alienation.

A child's heart,

Zhu Ying nestled obediently in her arms and nodded her head as if she didn't understand.

She also knows that she has to be a good child, to be an honest child. But she was worried that once she told the truth, her mother would not like her.

"Ying'er herself doesn't like to lie."

At this time, Shen Yuechen seemed to be able to read minds, and read out the thoughts in her heart.

"I am your mother, and I am someone you can rely on for the rest of your life. So, you can tell me the truth and tell the truth. ”

The reason why Shen Yuechen loves Zhu Ying very much is not only because she is a good child.

Sometimes, she will inadvertently see some shadows of herself from Zhu Ying's body.

It's vague, but it's a real feeling.

Zhu Ying is a very insecure child in her bones, her sensibility, her quietness, and her well-behaved are often a last resort.

The reason why Shen Yuechen felt so sorry for her was exactly that.

It's really distressing that she is still so young and has to endure this.

Zhu Ying was quiet for a while before she whispered: "But my sister is so cute, after my mother has a sister, will she still like Ying'er?" ”

When Shen Yuechen heard this, she felt her heart tighten.

I just feel that what I said was at the right time.

Before the child has a grudge in his heart, explain everything clearly.

A child's heart is the purest and clearest, and it should not be contaminated with these disturbing troubles.

Shen Yuechen brought Zhu Ying's little hand to her mouth, kissed her and said, "You are all the daughters of your mother, and your mother likes them the same." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Ying raised her head and opened her eyes wide, and confirmed very seriously: "Really? ”

Shen Yuechen nodded, "Of course." You are all precious children. ”

Zhu Ying still understood the word precious, and she smiled with crooked eyebrows.

Shen Yuechen also smiled and said, "Does Ying'er like her sister?" ”

Zhu Ying nodded heavily, and replied crisply: "I like it, when my sister sleeps, her mouth is slightly open like this, and she is still clenching her fists, which is beautiful." After saying that, she didn't forget to learn it.

Shen Yuechen patted her head, her heart warm.

"Then you have to help your mother take care of your sister in the future, she is still so young, she can't say anything, she can't do anything, she needs someone to protect her."

Zhu Ying patted her chest and said with a serious face: "Well, okay, Ying'er will definitely take good care of her sister." ”

An afternoon of patience was not in vain.

Zhu Ying once again regained her previous liveliness and joy, and the number of times she came to visit Zhu Zhu in the main house was also increasing.

Zhu Jintang was also vaguely aware of the change in this child, and couldn't help asking, "Did you give her any gifts again?" Why is this kid so happy? ”

Shen Yuechen smiled: "The concubine didn't give her any gifts." It just gave the kid a reassurance. ”

Zhu Jintang was confused when he heard it, but Shen Yuechen just smiled and didn't answer, but reminded him: "Uncle has been circling around the children all day lately, don't you really need to go back to the store to have a look?" ”

Thinking about the past, the current Zhu Jintang seems to be too leisurely.

Zhu Jintang also smiled when he heard this: "I've really been too idle recently. ”

Shen Yuechen glanced at Zhu Zhu, and then at him: "Calculate carefully, we've been out for several months, and seeing that the weather is getting colder day by day, it's time to go back." ”

It stands to reason that the children's full moon wine and first birthday ceremony should be done back.

Counting the days, it's time to go back.

Zhu Jintang nodded and said, "In the next few days, you can let the people below start cleaning up." ”

Shen Yuechen nodded lightly.

As soon as he said that he was leaving, Shen Yuechen couldn't help but look up at the simple furnishings in the room, and said in a melancholy tone: "I really don't know if it's time to clean up." ”

Zhu Jintang also knew that she was reluctant, but in order not to worry about the elders, she still had to move back as soon as possible.

"If you want to bring it, you can bring it, and if you don't want to bring it, you can put it here. Later, when we are free, we will come back to live. ”

Shen Yuechen put his shoulder next to him and asked, "Can we still come back?" ”

"Of course, there's always a chance." Zhu Jintang pressed her head on his shoulder, then pillowed his head on her head, and closed his eyes as if it were a pillow.

When I went to the capital, let alone like this, I am afraid that if I want to go back to Texas, it will be very difficult.

Shen Yuechen groaned slightly: "It's not easy to convince the elders. ”

Zhu Jintang said lightly: "I just need to convince my grandfather." ”

Shen Yuechen was slightly stunned, and then reacted to something.

I see. The reason why Zhu Jintang is so confident about his trip to the capital is because of his understanding of the old man.

Indeed, although the old man is old and looks light-hearted on the outside, he is actually still a very ambitious person in his bones.

After staying for a few days, Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen finally left the Grange with the children.

Shen Yuechen was originally a little reluctant, and when she saw those who saw her off, she couldn't help but redden.

Seeing this, Zhu Jintang laughed at her childishness, and held her in his arms to comfort her for a while.

Shen Yuechen sniffed: "Xu is because I just gave birth to a child, I have been getting more and more sentimental recently." ”

When Zhu Jintang heard this, he just stroked her hair: "It's better, I like it." ”

When she saw the gate of the Zhu family for the first time, Shen Yuechen felt a little nervous for some reason, which made her shake her head helplessly.

The two ancestors of the family sat in the upper room and had been waiting for them for a long time.

When two people meet their elders, the first thing they have to do is to make amends.

The old man still smiled, looked the two children up and down, nodded and said, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." I see that you all look good, what about Zhu Zhu? Hold it and show me. ”

After Zhu Zhu was born, he never returned to the Zhu family, so only the old lady and the Li family had seen her, and the old man had never had a chance to see her.

Mother Wu stepped forward with her swaddling clothes in her arms, revealing Zhu Zhu's sleeping little face.

The old man squinted his eyes for a while, stroked his beard and said, "She looks like her mother, delicate, good-looking!" ”

When the old lady heard this, she beckoned to Mother Wu: "I haven't seen you for a few days, let me take a look." ”

Li Shi also stood up, leaned over, and looked at it with a smile, but when he turned his head and looked at Zhu Jintang, he said in a slightly reproachful tone: "You kid, your heart is really getting older and cross-country." The child doesn't come back after the full moon, it's really unusual. ”

Zhu Jintang saluted again: "The son will not compensate his mother again." ”

Li Shi was willing to really blame him, just complaining a few words, and then said: "I don't want your apology, go back and let Brother Xuan and Zhu Zhu come over to live for me, let me have a few days." ”
