Chapter 194: I Just Want You to Be Happy
"Xinniang, it's inconvenient now, I can only let Ning Ning worship you like this, don't blame me, she called your mother just now, did you hear it? She's grown up, almost five years old. β
Xie Suzhi's gaze holding the tablet became soft.
Just looking at the three words "Shen Siyi", he could see the smile of his beloved wife in the past.
Xie Suzhi sat on the futon, leaned back against the offering table, and sighed heavily.
"I have been so grieved since you died, and if it weren't for the search for our daughter, I would have gone with you."
"But now, I have a new responsibility, I want to take good care of her growing up, make up for the fatherly love she lacked in the past, and protect her from being hurt at all."
As he spoke, Xie Suzhi's gentle eyebrows and eyes turned red.
His slender fingers brushed his wife's name, and his eyes became dark and cold for a moment: "I will make those who separate our wives and daughters pay a painful price." β
Then, he closed his eyes and spoke again, but he smiled dotingly: "It's just that under the Yellow Spring, by the bridge, you must wait for me." β
After the Xie family's lively adopted daughter banquet, Shen Ningning was sent home by Xie Mingxu.
But at night, the second room was turned upside down.
In the main room, Second Mrs. Xie cried and smashed several tea cups.
Second Master Xie, who was sitting motionless in a wheelchair next to him, stared at her coldly.
"That Long Fengpei, you promised me that you would wait until Jiu Jiu got married and gave her a dowry, but now you have given it to an outsider who has nothing to do with it, you are confused!" Second Mrs. Xie lay on the table and wept continuously.
Second Master Xie spoke, his words were a little unclear, but his expression was cold: "If I knew when I made my promise that you were the one who used the scheme to frame me, I would never marry you, let alone promise to give the dragon and phoenix to your mother and daughter." β
Second Lady Xie's crying stopped abruptly, and she suddenly raised her head and glared at Second Master Xie in despair.
"I know that for so many years, you have been blaming me, blaming me for harming you with drugs, having a husband and wife with you, blaming me for breaking up the good marriage between you and your childhood sweetheart!"
"But Xie Dizhi, I think I am also the daughter of a third-grade doctor, when I married you, I brought a rich dowry, and after you were paralyzed, I served you day and night."
"People's hearts are flesh and blood, you should have seen it after so many years, if I didn't like you in the first place, why would I use that kind of indiscriminate means! Now I don't treat you badly, except that I didn't give birth to a son for you, what do you want me to do? β
In the end, Second Lady Xie roared: "Or do you never forget that woman in your heart!" β
Second Master Xie's calm and elegant face suddenly showed an angry look.
With all his strength, he threw the thin blanket on his lap at the second lady.
"You are not allowed to scold her." Second Master Xie gritted his teeth.
The second lady suddenly cried even more fiercely: "What kind of life do I have, I knew it was like this, I should have jumped into the river when I was pregnant with Jiujiu." β
Second Master Xie's heart continued to fluctuate, and his face turned red.
At this time, Xie Yuanjiu hurriedly broke in from outside.
"Father, mother, don't quarrel," she has seen this scene countless times: "Mother, father, he is not in good health, don't be angry with him." β
Second Mrs. Xie wiped her tears: "Jiujiu, your father doesn't regard you as his daughter at all, he only has the woman he likes in his heart." β
Xie Yuanjiu bit his lip and looked at Second Master Xie.
However, his father also showed a tired and disgusted gaze.
"Jiujiu, you let the entourage come in and push your father out!" Xie Erye said, Xie Yuanjiu called the domestic servants, and pushed Xie Erye to the side room to rest.
Second Mrs. Xie wanted to chase after her and quarrel, but was stopped by Xie Yuanjiu.
"Mother, don't be so noisy anymore, if the uncle knows, he will definitely be angry." With that, Xie Yuanjiu closed the door.
Second Mrs. Xie suddenly turned around and lay on the chaise longue and cried.
"Jiujiu, you must fight for your mother, and let your father see that you are the best child, and you can't just come to a wild girl and compare you."
Xie Yuanjiu was silent.
Second Mrs. Xie grabbed her hand and urged a little hideously and anxiously: "You promise your mother, you can't admit defeat, you have to be the most outstanding woman in the whole capital." β
"My mother used unclean means to marry your father, so he has been thinking about that woman in his heart, and I heard that she also gave birth to a daughter, you must be better than her daughter! You can't let your mother lose to her, okay? β
"Not only that, but you can't be compared to that Shen Ningning, she was accepted as a goddaughter by the big house, and there will be more things to rob you in the future."
Xie Yuanjiu nodded slightly: "Mother, I remember." β
She has been strong since she was a child, and as the only concubine of the Xie family, she will never allow herself to be worse than anyone else.
β¦β¦
Shen Ningning was directly invited out by Lu Shaoyuan and took her into Beijing by carriage.
The little guy has two mansions in the capital, one of which has been transferred to his grandmother in the government the day before yesterday.
The other set has countless servants, but she still likes to live in the mountains.
Therefore, this time she was taken into the capital by Lu Shaoyuan, and she asked curiously: "Are you going to see my new home?" β
Lu Shaoyuan was wearing a bright purple robe, laughed when he heard this, shook the folding fan and said: "How is it possible, I don't know if I don't look at it, what the emperor rewards must be a big mansion." β
"I brought you into Beijing this time to tell you that I asked for the store we fancied last time from my mother, and you will know when you go to see it, and I am ready."
Shen Ningning was surprised.
When she got out of the carriage, she looked up.
Lu Shaoyuan not only got it right, but even renovated the faΓ§ade.
There were two displaced people who had been rescued by Shen Ningning before, standing on the ladder on the left and right, ready to uncover the red cloth on the plaque.
Lu Shaoyuan looked at Shen Ningning with a smile: "According to your original signboard, I specially found someone to make a new gilded plaque, come, you shout to start, let them uncover it!" β
The little guy raised his crystal eyes, and his little face was full of joy.
"Let's go!" After she finished shouting, the red silk was uncovered and fell.
The four words "wolf swallowing sweet water" are majestic, and even the paw prints that the black wolf king stepped on are still there.
Wu'er was in a wheelchair and was pushed out of the house by the homeless people, and everyone crackled and applauded, all smiling and full of joy and hope.
Lu Shaoyuan's servant immediately set off firecrackers in front of the door and sounded gongs and drums.
The people he invited ran all over the street and shouted: "Wolf swallow sweet water, open up!" The shop of the blessed girl, eat a lot of good luck, the wolf god blesses, and you are not afraid to walk at night! β
Shen Ningning laughed heartily when he heard this, his little face was full of joy, and he asked Lu Shaoyuan instead: "Is it a bit exaggerated if you promote it like this?" β
Lu Shaoyuan raised his eyebrows, full of spirit: "What are you afraid of, my mother said that when you do business, what you want is gimmicks and feet, the more exaggerated, the better the business." β
With that, he took out the key and the ledger and handed them to Shen Ningning.
"Well, from today onwards, you will be the big owner of the shop."
Lu Shaoyuan touched the back of his head and comforted him a little awkwardly: "Actually, you don't have to care who your father and mother are, at least we are friends with you because we like you as a person." β
"It doesn't matter if your name is Shen Ningning or Ningning Shen, it doesn't matter, I hope you are happy."
