Chapter 308: Little Niece
Shen Pan'er heard the movement and came out, and saw Ye Lingwu leading Shen Zhan into the courtyard of the thatched house, and there were dozens of black flag guards outside the fence.
She frowned, as if she saw a life-saving heavenly soldier and a heavenly general, and before anyone entered the house, she pulled Shen Zhan to cry and wipe her tears and said, "Big brother...... You can be regarded as coming, the third sister of this barren mountain is about to be scared to death, the second sister-in-law and sister-in-law have been in pain all night, and the child is fortunately born...... How else can it be ......?"
Shen Zhan was very patient with her, and said comfortingly: "Okay, okay, don't cry, if it weren't for the Wu maid who left the mark of the Cheng family along the way, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find it here." ”
Shen Pan'er wiped her tears: "Oh, I see, then when will we go back?" ”
At this time, Yue Yang stepped forward and reminded in a low voice: "Young master, the second prince is still looking for someone in another mountain forest, should we hurry back and join the others?" ”
"No, no, no!" Shen Pan'er shook her head again and again, "The second sister-in-law just gave birth to a child and rested, so we can't leave yet." ”
Ye Lingwu echoed: "Yes, Sister Kite is weak and not suitable for tiring travel." ”
Shen Zhan nodded and said softly, "Then wait for my brother-in-law to rest before leaving." Yue Yang, you go down the mountain first and inform the second brother. ”
"Yes!" Yue Yang clenched his fists and turned to leave.
In the inner room, Cheng Guyuan was still unconscious on the bed, covered with blood, and the two grandmothers stayed in the house to take care of her. Outside, Shen Zhan thanked the owner of the hut many times, and promised that this favor would be returned in the future.
The old woman was so frightened that she waved her hand again and again, and she knelt down for Shen Zhan, After all, she has lived around this thatched hut in her life, and she never thought that one day she would be able to be kind to the famous Marquis of Ningbei.
Shen Pan'er took her little niece out of the house for Shen Zhan to see, and the little baby opened her eyes wide, and she seemed to be very curious about everything around her.
The brother and sister liked this little niece very much, and they didn't get tired after teasing for half an hour.
Ye Lingwu saw it on the side and couldn't stop snickering.
When the sun came out, the forest was not gray and dreary, and there was thick snow in the courtyard, and Ye Lingwu boiled a pot of hot water with clean snow to make a soup woman.
The mountains are even colder than the city, and without a small stove, you can only stuff two more soup women into the quilt, otherwise only relying on two quilts, Cheng Guyuan's body is afraid that it will still be unbearable.
The old woman made a simple white porridge and brought it into the house, Mama Li was grateful, and after thanking her, she hurriedly fed Cheng Gukite to drink.
Ye Lingwu saw that Cheng Guyu's face had improved, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from outside the house.
As soon as she stepped out of the house, she saw a red horse coming, Xu had not slept all night, Shen Ci on the horseback looked tired, and the stubble was not taken care of, and he threw away the reins in his hand, turned over and dismounted and ran towards the hut.
"Second brother!" Shen Paner hugged the little baby and came up.
Shen Ci glanced at it briefly and asked, "What about your second sister-in-law?" ”
Shen Pan'er said: "Rest in the house." ”
Shen Ci said gently, crossed her two steps and stepped on the steps, just ran into Ye Lingwu leaning against the door, both of them were stunned, Shen Ci bowed his head and said: "Thank you cousin for taking care of your wife, this kindness will ...... in the future."
"The second son, let's go in and see Sister Gukite, she suffered a lot of sins last night, and she must be looking forward to seeing you." Ye Lingwu interrupted with a smile.
Shen nodded wordlessly, and walked towards the back room.
After a while, a boxy canopy covered with brocade stopped outside the courtyard, and then saw the door open from the inside, and Zhao hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, and he couldn't even wait for the coachman to take out the stool.
Zhao went straight to Shen Pan'er, pulled her up and down, frowned, and said, "It's okay, it's okay?" Why do you have so much blood on your body, are you injured? ”
Shen Paner's mouth was astringent: "I'm okay mother, the blood on my body is all from my second sister-in-law." ”
Zhao was stunned for a moment and said, "Then your second sister-in-law is okay, right?" ”
Shen Pan'er shook her head and replied, "It's all right, your little granddaughter is also safe." ”
Zhao's tense heart finally relaxed, and he clutched his chest and said, "That's good, that's good, Amitabha, ancestors bless." ”
She lowered her head and looked at the sleeping baby in Shen Paner's arms, and said with a smile: "Oh, this is my granddaughter." ”
The small square hut is full of warm scenery.
Ye Lingwu was stunned, and was about to turn around and enter the house, but saw Shen Zhan coming from the backyard, and the two black flag guards behind him were each holding several bundles of firewood.
Ye Lingwu looked at him quietly, probably because her eyes were too hot, and before she could retract her gaze, she saw Shen Zhan turn her head and look over suddenly.
Looking at each other, Ye Lingwu was like a thief who had accidentally been caught, and hurriedly turned around and hid in the house.
As soon as she sat down in front of the brazier, ready to make some hot tea to warm everyone's body, the warm curtain was lifted, and Shen Zhan followed into the house.
The thatched hut, which was originally more than enough to squeeze five people, was instantly crowded a lot because of his existence.
As soon as Shen Zhan approached, Ye Lingwu immediately smelled the faint incense of pine branches on his body, and she didn't dare to raise her head, so she could only pretend to be calm and continue to pluck the firewood from the brazier with pliers.
Indifferent, as if the previous cries had never happened.
Shen Zhan lowered his face, took a small pestle in his hand, sat down and said: "The Luocheng turmoil has been transmitted to Beijing, and the Jiang family must know about the robbers encountered by Mrs. Jiang. ”
Ye Lingwu heard the sarcasm in Shen Zhan's words, and frowned.
Shen Zhan stared at her and continued: "The Jiang family's housemother is in trouble, but the Jiang scholar has not made any moves, aren't you husband and wife in a very good relationship, aren't the Jiang scholars worried?"
Ye Lingwu pursed his lips, and said in a strange manner: "It seems that Hou Ye should really marry a wife, he likes to care about other people's feelings so much, isn't it empty and lonely in his own room?" ”
Shen Zhan's eyes darkened, and he said coldly: "Ben Hou advises the eldest lady of the Jiang family to speak well, otherwise you will only be the one who suffers." ”
Ye Ling was misty and glared at him.
This person obviously ignored it and dared to use a threatening move.
Listening to the sound of burning firewood in the house, Shen Zhan peeked at the girl next to her, and saw her staring at the brazier in a daze, her originally white and tender little face was like a cat at the moment, and the clothes on her body were even more dirty.
His heart softened, and he said gently: "If you want to go back to the city first, I can ask Yue Yang to escort you back first, you didn't bring a slave and a maid on this trip, and the Jiang family has no news from you, so you must be in a hurry." ”
Ye Lingwu slowly raised his eyes to look at him, as if he was a little surprised by the sudden change in his attitude, and only replied in a daze for a while: "...... That... Then it's troublesome for Master Hou. ”
Shen Zhan's expression was indifferent, and he said in a deep voice: "You're welcome, you owe me a lot of favors, no more than this time." ”
Ye Lingwu was speechless.
