Chapter 7: Back to the door
Shen Changze's hand was wide and hot, Jiang Shu's slightly cool hand was wrapped by him, and a warm current surged into his heart.
The two went to Shouyongtang hand in hand to say goodbye to Mrs. Shen and Mother Shen.
Because he has held the sword for many years, Shen Changze's palm is rough and has a thin callus. And Jiang Shu's hand was slender and small, slippery and soft as if it was boneless, Shen Changze couldn't help but pinch it.
Jiang Shu shuddered and looked at him sideways.
Shen Changze coughed and lowered his voice: "Madame's hands are so soft. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Shuqiao's face was hot, and he felt that Shen Changze's hands were hot. She wanted to break free, but Shen Changze didn't let her, so the two held hands and went to Shouyongtang.
"Great-grandmother's heart, come and let great-grandmother hug ......"
Before entering Shouyongtang, I heard cheerful conversations and laughter.
"Mother, Mother." The two said hello in unison, and when Cheng Jinchu turned his head to look over, Shen Changze let go of Jiang Shu's hand.
Jiang Shu withdrew his hand and squeezed it in front of him, and the warmth in his heart was poured cold.
"Daddy." Yan Huan ran over and hugged Shen Changze's legs.
Shen Changze bent down to pick her up, pointed to Jiang Shu on the side and said, "Call Mother." ”
Yan Huan fluttered his bright eyes and stared directly at the beads on Jiang Shu's head: "Mother, it's so beautiful." ”
For three-year-olds, sparkling rubies are a novelty toy.
Noticing Yan Huan's eyes, Jiang Shu asked softly, "Do you like it?"
"I like it." Yan Huan stretched out his hand and touched Jiang Shu's dripping beads.
Looking at her Yuxue's cute little face, Jiang Shu curled her lips: "Mother will give you a set when you go back." ”
The adult's business has nothing to do with the child, and she will not be angry with the child.
"Alright, it's not too early, you guys should hurry up." Mother Shen hugged Yan Huan and asked them to leave quickly.
Old Madam Shen was so bent on teasing her great-grandson that she didn't pay attention to it at all.
Shen Changze and Jiang Shu turned to leave.
Cheng Jinchu looked at their matching figures, and felt very uncomfortable.
Shen Changze's clothes were picked by her, but she didn't expect that Jiang Shu would wear the same color.
And Shen Changze hugged Yan Huan and called Jiang Shu's mother, and the picture of the three of them living in harmony deeply stung her.
How can her children be happy at the knees of others?
On the carriage to Jiang's mansion, Jiang Shu and Shen Changze each sat on one side and did not say a word.
Catching a glimpse of her hand on her lap, Shen Changze seemed to think of something: "Is your hand good?"
"Hmm." Jiang Shu responded shallowly.
Although the hot soup burned the back of her hand, it was not serious, there were no blisters or molting, and after a few days of rubbing the medicine, it returned to normal.
Looking at the bright little face in front of him, Shen Changze wanted to talk to her more and be close to her, so he didn't have anything to say: "The ancestor of Jinchu is a wine merchant, he has an ancestral wine-making secret recipe, and he plans to open a wine shop in Shangjing, what do you think?"
"Very good." Jiang Shu's expression was faint and he was not interested.
Shen Changze's lips moved, and he changed the topic: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law have been in good health recently?" But what else do you need to buy along the way?"
Hearing him ask about his father, Jiang Shu's face softened a lot, and the corners of his lips sparkled with a smile: "Father and mother are in good health, but Jiang Ning is at a naughty age, which makes them quite a headache." ”
Jiang Ning?
Yes, she has a younger brother. When he went to Jiang's house to greet his relatives, he still held Jiang Shu's hand and cried his nose and didn't let him go, wiping his snot all over his body.
"How old is Jiang Ning now?"
"Thirteen years old in two months."
Jiang Shu smiled softly and talked more: "He plays a little naughty, and the chickens and dogs that are tossed in the house every day are jumping." His father couldn't control him and sent him to the academy, and he became the little demon king of the academy in less than half a year. But he was gifted and learned everything quickly, which made the master love and hate ......"
"Father-in-law and mother-in-law want him to join the ranks?" Shen Changze Nahan.
The Jiang family has a lot of money and a lot of business, and Jiang Ning has only one son. If he joins the company, who will take over the Jiang family's business?
Jiang Shu shook his head: "Dad didn't think about it, but just to make him literate and reasonable." As for the future, it depends on his talent. ”
It takes talent to study, and so does business. If Jiang Ning has no talent for business, forcibly letting him take over will only ruin the family property.
As the two were talking, the carriage suddenly stopped.
"Master Hou, madam, Jiang Mansion has arrived."
"Sister!" Before Jiang Shu got out of the car, he heard the young man's cheerful voice.
Shen Changze took the lead out of the carriage, and as soon as he looked out, he saw the handsome young man waiting beside the carriage.
The jade crown tied his hair, and his figure was straight, and it was over his shoulders. looks a little similar to Jiang Shu, and when he grows up, he doesn't know how many Beijing ladies he will be fascinated by.
"Brother." Jiang Shu got out of the carriage, and Shen Changze stretched out his hand to help her get out of the carriage.
Jiang Shu was about to put his hand on it, but was grabbed by Jiang Ning.
"I'll help my sister." Jiang Ning squeezed Shen Changze away with a butt.
Shen Changze looked at the empty palm, looked at the intimate sister and brother, and was inexplicably a little blocked.
That's his wife, how can he let the man next to him support him? Not even my own brother.
He wanted to open his mouth to remind Jiang Ning, but was interrupted by Jiang's father and Jiang's mother.
"I've seen Master Hou." Jiang's father and Jiang's mother saluted according to the rules.
Shen Changze hurriedly helped up: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, get up quickly." ”
"Shu'er." Jiang's mother held Jiang Shu's hand, and tears flowed first.
"Mother, I'm back." Jiang Shu smiled softly and coquettishly with Jiang's mother.
Looking at the scene in front of them, the maids and maids of the family were red-eyed.
It's been six years, and I finally saw the young lady return to the door with her uncle.
Although the streets on both sides have been cleaned up by the family, there will be people passing by, so Jiang's father wrinkled his brows and said, "Go to the house." ”
If it is an ordinary family, it is not enough, and it is inconvenient for Mrs. Hou Fu to show up.
The group entered the hall and sat down, and the maidservant served tea and the sailor retreated.
Jiang's father and Jiang's mother invited Shen Changze to take a seat, but Shen Changze refused and sat down with Jiang Shu.
At this time, his identity is not Jing'anhou, but his son-in-law, and he should let the elders take the seat.
"Sister, why have you lost weight?" Jiang Ning stared at Jiang Shu's thin little face, full of distress, and finally glared at Shen Changze with blame.
It must have been caused by him bringing his wife and children back and making Sister Ah sad.
Shen Changze knew that he was at a loss and didn't care.
Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were also resentful and did not scold.
Jiang Shu was afraid that the atmosphere would become more and more stiff, so he teased Jiang Ning and said, "Then Sister will eat more today, can you eat it all back?"
Jiang Ning nodded childishly: "Okay." Mother asked the kitchen to prepare all the dishes that Sister Ah likes to eat, and Sister Ah will eat more for a while. ”
Receiving Jiang Shu's letter last night, the family was very excited, and Jiang Mansion was busy this morning, and Jiang Ning, who was originally going to the academy, also took leave.
Jiang's mother wanted to say a few words to Jiang Shu, so she asked Jiang's father, Jiang Ning, to accompany Shen Changze, and she called Jiang Shu to go to the garden.
"Master Hou, how is he treating you?" Mother Jiang asked as she walked.
Jiang Shu took his mother's hand and nodded.
She didn't want her father and mother to worry about her.
"What about you...... But the round house?" Jiang Mu stared at Jiang Shu's eyes, very concerned about this matter.
Being stared at like this, Jiang Shu didn't dare to lie: "Not yet." ”
