Mrs. Zhu looked at her, as if she was very happy, and reached out to touch the old string of Buddha beads on her wrist, and couldn't help but smile and said, "You have always worn this Buddha string on your body." ”

Shen Yuechen nodded. "The old lady's favor, the concubine dare not forget."

As long as it is something that the old lady rewards, whether good or bad, it is the dignity she gives, so she must wear it on her body at all times to show her attention.

Old Madam Zhu clapped her hand again: "Good boy." After speaking, she looked at Zhu Jintang again, "I took this string of Buddhist beads as a gift for her newlyweds." ”

Zhu Jintang knew that this string of Buddhist beads was something that his grandmother would never leave all year round, but he didn't expect that she would reward Shen Yuechen, and it was before she entered the door.

Mrs. Zhu gave a reward, and Mr. Zhu was naturally prepared, he prepared a pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets inlaid with rubies, which were heavy, and it felt like being put on a pair of heavy handcuffs.

Li Shi looked at Shen Yuechen's slender wrist, frowned slightly, and only took out the pearl necklace prepared in advance.

Among the four elders, only Zhu Feng prepared the simplest thing, and he directly wrapped a thick big red envelope for Shen Yuechen.

"New daughter-in-law, this is my gift to you, you have to teach your husband and children well in the future, and also, give our Zhu family branches and leaves as soon as possible."

Shen Yuechen blessed the blessing again: "Daughter-in-law Xie Master for the reward." ”

After saluting one after another, tea was also served, and Shen Yuechen could finally sit under the head of the eldest lady Li Shi and rest for a while. However, Li Shi kept staring at her face quietly for a moment before saying, "I heard that you lost your mother since you were a child, and you were sent to the temple to recuperate because of your weak body, and you were able to return home last year, right?" ”

Hearing Li Shi's words, Shen Yuechen's heart trembled slightly, and then lowered her eyes slightly, not wanting others to see the uneasiness in her eyes.

Shen Yuechen knew the bitter past of his past, although few people knew about it, he still couldn't hide it.

There is no impermeable wall in this world, where there are people, there will be right and wrong, and no one has real secrets.

Shen Yuechen pondered for a moment and said slowly: "What Mrs. said is very true, I grew up in Jingyue Nunnery since I was a child, firstly, because I was weak when I was born, and I have been associated with Buddhism since I was a child, hoping to be blessed by it, and secondly, I want to learn the scriptures, I can chant and pray for my deceased mother, and surpass the dead." ”

Shen Yuechen answered Li Shi's questions lightly, but he couldn't easily brush away the doubts they had in their hearts.

Born with a mother, the eight characters are ominous, she has been carrying these words for too many years, but she is not afraid to carry them on her body for a few more years. Moreover, before she got married, she heard her grandmother say that the reason why the Zhu family chose her was because she was hard enough to be killed like the Qin family......

The world is impermanent, and the fate that was originally disliked and despised by the Shen family is rare in the world in the eyes of the Zhu family...... All of this seems to be a bit ironic.

When Li Shi heard this, he smiled and said, "You are really a filial child." After speaking, he deliberately handed a look to his husband Zhu Feng, but Zhu Feng just drank the tea quietly and didn't say a word.

For this new daughter-in-law, he can't talk about whether he is satisfied or dissatisfied in his heart, it is the old mother's intention from beginning to end, so everything is done according to her wishes. Since the man has been married, whether it is good or bad is the fate of his son.

As he spoke, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door, followed by the cheerful laughter of the second wife of the Zhu family, Chai. ”

"We're late, the two ancestors are safe, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law have good morning."

The second wife of the Zhu family, Chai Shi, came slowly in a pink smoke gauze dress, smiling, with spring water in her eyes, giving people a refreshed appearance.

Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen immediately got up and saluted her, Chai smiled and accepted it, looked at Shen Yuechen's pink little face, and deliberately teased Zhu Jintang: "What a watery bride." Our uncle must be very happy in his heart to be able to get you a good daughter-in-law like this Peugeot back. ”

When Zhu Jintang heard this, he just smiled faintly and didn't say anything, as if he was acquiescing to her words.

Li Shi listened, but he was a little unhappy, and quietly glared at her. This family affair didn't go so smoothly originally, she was nosy, so it became what it is today.

Chai didn't come alone, she was accompanied by her baby son Zhu Jinlun and a maid and son-in-law, but she didn't see Zhu Jun, the second master of Zhu.

Chai Shi immediately explained: "Second master, because I was so happy yesterday, I was drunk with a greedy cup, and when I got up in the morning, I felt a little unhappy, and said that I would come over in the evening to greet the two ancestors." ”

Zhu Jun was indeed drunk yesterday, he was in a good mood, and he felt very happy when he thought that Changfang had married a new daughter-in-law who could not give birth to a child. However, this matter can only be regarded as a small secret between Zhu Jun and his wife Chai.

Zhu Jinlun, like his mother Chai, has delicate facial features and a noble face, and his thin lips always have a shallow smile, looking kind.

Zhu Jinlun came here to join in the fun, wanting to meet his new sister-in-law.

However, similar to his expectations, Shen Yuechen looked too plain, looked delicate and weak, lowered his eyebrows, and looked very honest and obedient.

After greeting each other, Zhu Jinlun sat down directly in front of the old lady and said with a smile: "The spirit of the two ancestors seems to be very good today, this is really a happy event." ”

Old Madam Zhu laughed, her face like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Before breakfast, Old Man Zhu proposed to let Shen Yuechen enter the ancestral hall to burn incense for the ancestors.

When everyone heard this, they naturally didn't dare to slack off, especially Shen Yuechen, even if his legs were sore, he had to insist on continuing to bow three times and bow nine times in the ancestral hall until all the rituals were completed.

Ancient etiquette has always been cumbersome, Shen Yuechen used to be in the Shen family temporarily, and studied for three whole months, and when it came to this time, he could only barely cope with it. Walking out of the ancestral hall, when she went down the steps, her knees were weak, if it weren't for the quick eyes of Chun Ming on the side and the steady support of her, she would almost be stuck in front of the elders.

After some tossing, it was finally time for breakfast. Unlike usual, Li Shi specially specified before the meal that Shen Yuechen would serve the old lady for dinner, which was usually the responsibility of the aunts and maids.

Shen Yuechen got up as he said, but before she stood up, she heard Old Madam Zhu speak: "No need, you can also sit down and eat." "Even if you want to stand up, there is no reason to call people who have only been in the door for a day.

Shen Yuechen sat down again under the gaze of the old lady, and used the meal extremely carefully, not knowing what she ate.

After breakfast, the two old men wanted to go back and take a nap, while Zhu Jintang and Zhu Jinlun were ready to go out and deal with business matters.

Shen Yuechen had been following Zhu Jintang all the time, and led the maids to send him out of the Hanging Flower Gate before stopping.

Zhu Jintang left in a hurry and didn't leave any explanation for her, but Shen Yuechen knew in her heart that there was still a lot of work to do today.

It was only a cup of tea to go back to the house, and Mama Li came over to ask for Andao: "A few aunts want to come and salute Grandma." ”

Shen Yuechen paused with her hand holding the tea bowl, she knew that Zhu Jintang was a person with a concubine, and there was more than one room. Just before she entered the door, Zhu Jintang also admitted a concubine of the Qin family in order to take care of the Qin family's face.

Since last night, there are so many things to worry about, so she hasn't taken the time to think about it.

What should come will come, and what should be seen will always be seen.

Shen Yuechen sighed in her heart, and then nodded with a smile: "Please bring them in." ”

Although she and Zhu Jintang became relatives and became husband and wife, they did not have the real feelings between ordinary couples. Therefore, she can tolerate him having a concubine, having children, and even if she learns that he likes men one day, she can accept it silently. Everything is for survival, no matter who is good or bad, as long as you don't talk about feelings, everything is easy to discuss.

Soon, after just a moment's effort, Mama Li brought her aunts in to greet Shen Yuechen.

The curtain was slowly lifted, and five young women dressed as women streamed into the room.

The woman at the head was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was the most brilliantly dressed and gorgeous of the five, and she looked like she was of high birth.

Shen Yuechen looked at her carefully, and from the hint of arrogance that appeared between her eyebrows, she deduced that she might be the Qin family's sister.

Moreover, when she walked, she kept her chest up and her head up, and her chin was raised high, even when she was facing Shen Yuechen, she tilted her head slightly.

Mama Li's attitude towards her is also very polite, and this kind of polite attitude is really too inappropriate for an aunt.

Sure enough, Shen Yuechen's inference was quickly correctly verified.

The woman was blessed with a blessing, and said with a slight smile: "The concubine Qin family asks for peace to the eldest young grandmother." ”

The Qin family used "concubine body" instead of "cheap concubine" or "concubine".

Shen Yuechen was very dissatisfied with her self-title. She is just an aunt, not a flat wife, how can she dare to use the word "concubine" in front of her wife? The daughter of the Qin family is naturally not a person who doesn't understand the rules, presumably, she dares to call it so, because she relies on her background to make herself ugly.

The smile on Shen Yuechen's face faded, and she put down the tea bowl and said, "Sister Qin, get up." ”

Qin's age was obviously above her, but because of her identity, she could only condescend below herself.

The Qin family didn't get up immediately, but took the tea bowl from the hand of the maid next to him, and said in a respectful tone: "The concubine gives tea to the eldest young grandmother." ”

Shen Yuechen lowered her eyes and kept staring at the tea bowl in her hand, but she didn't answer it.

Seeing that she didn't say a word, and didn't take the tea bowl, Qin Shi muttered slightly: "The concubine invites the eldest young grandmother to use tea." ”

Shen Yuechen still didn't answer, and didn't let her get up, so she knelt on the ground.

The displeasure on Qin's face flashed, and there was a little annoyance in his eyes, he didn't understand whether Shen Yuechen was deliberately embarrassing her or something, so he simply knelt in place, didn't speak, and stared at her with burning eyes, as if he wanted to be superior.

Shen Yuechen felt like a mirror in her heart, the Qin family didn't take her seriously, so she would call herself a concubine inappropriately.

She can tolerate the pickiness of the elders, but she will never allow the aunt beside Zhu Jintang to be disrespectful to her, regardless of priority and priority, and she can't be suppressed as soon as she enters the door, so she can't drink this bowl of tea before the Qin family changes her words.
