Chapter 854: Do You Want Me to Come Forward?
"Okay. Su Shi said lightly.
Mao Tongtong got up with Chen and accompanied Su to the garden.
This was the first visit since the Su family had a scene at the gate of Mao's house. After that, Uncle Chen personally came to the door to apologize once, but Su Shi did not follow, saying that he was sick. But that was a few months ago.
The three of them didn't speak all the way, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
The small garden of this house is quite elegantly furnished. The previous owner was probably a flower lover, and there were many flowers in this garden. Chen himself is also a lover of flowers, and after moving in, he also took care of it, so that it was not abandoned.
This is the season when plum blossoms are in full bloom, and there are red plums, wax plums, and white plums in this garden, and the fragrance of plum blossoms wafts all over the garden. Under the warm winter sun, people have a feeling of relaxation and happiness.
"I'll go and ask the maid to get some snacks and hot milk tea, and we can sit in the pavilion and rest while enjoying the plum blossoms." Chan said.
For the sake of Uncle Chen's face, the Chen family has not bothered with the Su family for a long time, otherwise he would not greet him with a smile today. This will not be specially entertained.
"It's all arranged by the eldest sister." Su Shi still looked faint and couldn't lift his spirits.
Mao Tongtong frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. After all, the Su family is an elder, and the Chen family doesn't say anything, and she, as a junior, is naturally even more difficult to say.
After the maids gathered snacks and milk tea, and the three of them sat down in the pavilion, Chen spoke again: "I see that my younger brothers and sisters are worried, but what's the matter with the house?" Would you like to hear about it? Maybe I can help. ”
Su Shi was drinking milk tea with his eyes down, but when he heard Chen's words, he looked up, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "What the eldest sister said is really good." ”
Mao Tongtong glanced at Su Shi a little speechlessly, what is the matter with this mocking tone? Or did she not nod and agree to help Chen Ruzhu again?
Chen also frowned slightly, but still kept a smile on his face and said, "If my brother and sister don't want to say it, of course I won't force it." ”
If she didn't feel sorry for her brother, she wouldn't have worried about what happened to the Su family!
Chen's words are neither soft nor hard, and Su is not easy to answer for a while.
The atmosphere was awkward again.
After a long while, Su Shi suddenly burst into tears. Chen and Mao Tongtong were surprised!
You must know that Su is a person who loves face. There are not many times like this to show weakness in front of outsiders.
"What's going on? If you have something to say, why are you crying? Chen asked with concern.
More than a dozen possibilities had flashed through her mind. Her younger brother is also a man who wants to save face. Maybe something happened to Fu Zhen, but he refused to reveal half of it to her sister.
Actually, it's understandable. Uncle Chen has always been one of the most prominent in the Chen family! Rely on your own skills to gain a foothold in the capital. For many years, he has overpowered Mao Chengyun's brother-in-law, and now if he needs to ask Mao Chengyun for help, I'm afraid he won't be able to open his mouth.
"Is there anything that even my eldest sister won't say?" Chen said again.
Su's tears fell more and more urgently, and he couldn't stop it.
Mao Tongtong looked at her like this, and couldn't help sighing in her heart, and said, "Is it still Sister Ruzhu's business?" ”
As soon as she said this, Su's hand wiping her tears paused. Chen and Mao Tongtong glanced at each other, where else did they not understand.
"Isn't the Squire family still bad for Ruzhu?" Chan asked.
They are all raising daughters, and she can understand Su's feelings. In this world, it was a woman who had a more difficult time. Birth and marriage are the two ways for a woman to change her fate. Birth is no longer optional, only married people can pick one.
Chen Ruzhu's marriage can be regarded as Su's thousands of choices, but it ended up like this, how much Su should regret and blame himself in his heart. It's no wonder that she was so angry that she lost control of her every time.
Su Shi shook his head and said, "Zhu'er can't give birth to a son for a day, and she hasn't had a good life for a day." ”
It's hard for Chen to take this sentence. It is by providence that a son is born. Those so-called child-giving formulas and the like, Chen has always disbelieved them. If she wanted to help her son in other things, she really couldn't help with having a son.
After thinking about it, Chen said, "Have you asked a doctor to take a look at Ruzhu's body?" ”
"Why not!" As soon as he said this, Su Shi was excited, "Before, the Shilang Mansion said that our Zhu'er had a problem with her body. I don't believe this nonsense! My two daughters are like my lifeblood. Since I was a child, I have always paid close attention to their bodies, for fear that some disease will affect their future lives. It's a complete slander against us over there! I specially invited the most famous gynecologist in Beijing to check Zhu'er's pulse, and there was no problem at all! ”
"That's the son of the Shilang Mansion?" Chen hesitated.
"Hmph, people don't admit it!" Su Shi sneered: "I said to let the doctor also show it, but people disagreed, and said that they insulted him!" ”
Chen frowned and said, "This doesn't make sense. What if it's really his problem? You can't hide from the doctor, right? Are they not in a hurry to have children? ”
"Oh, their family is worried about taking concubines! It's as if you can marry another woman and give birth! Su said hatefully.
"Does my aunt want me to come forward?" Mao Tongtong said.
Su's intentions couldn't be more obvious. I was going to let her make a move, but the way was too rushed, and I didn't care too much about Ruzhu's face, so I finally stiffened. In fact, if she was like today that day, Mao Tongtong really wouldn't necessarily not help.
Su Shi glanced at Mao Tongtong, pursed his lips and didn't speak, but his eyes said everything.
"As the saying goes, it is difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs." Mao Tongtong spoke slowly.
As soon as she said this, Su's face changed. Mao Tongtong didn't pay attention to it, but continued: "If the son of the Shilang family really refuses to see the doctor, I will always force others to see the doctor!" I'm just a side Fujin of the Eighth Lord's Mansion, and it's not appropriate to meddle in other people's housework. ”
"If Fang Fujin is embarrassed, when I just find a chance to vent my frustration today, you can act as if you haven't heard anything!" Su Shi finally couldn't help but speak, but there was already anger in his tone.
Chen saw that the two of them were about to stiffen again, so they hurriedly gave Mao Tongtong a look. Signaling that she couldn't help, and that she shouldn't be too decisive.
Mao Tongtong smiled slightly and said, "My aunt is always so anxious, she has to listen to me, right?" Besides, you want to ask me for help today, can't you speak in a slightly better tone? This is related to Sister Ruzhu's life! ”
