Shen ruochu looks at the lanolin jade pendant on the table. Her face doesn't look very good. She purses her lips and looks at the eldest lady. She knows that the eldest lady has seen through her mind.
She should have guessed that if the eldest wife could manage such a big family, the eldest daughter-in-law that the old man looked at must be smart.
Li Xing stood by and looked at Shen ruochu with great interest. Wasn't he proud just now? Now he would like to see how Shen ruochu explained in front of his aunt.
Shen ruochu looked at Li Xing, not only did not help, but also gloated. He couldn't help but stare at Li Xing.
Shen ruochu turned his head and looked at the eldest lady. He apologized and said, "eldest lady, I..."
"Is it worth a lot of money? You are so generous. I just think you don't like the child. It turns out that you don't like the child. You are acting for me Without waiting for Shen ruochu to speak, the eldest lady spoke in a cold voice.
She thought that Shen ruochu didn't like the child. She beat and scolded him. She felt sorry for him. She changed his clothes and made some delicious food for him. She found such a jade pendant in his neck.
Lanzhi jade is very expensive. It's worth a lot of money for such a big nail cap. It's said that gold is valuable and jade is priceless. This quality Lanzhi jade is rare.
She thought it was Lian you's, so she asked Lian you who gave it to her. With such a piece of jade, the child would not be in such a predicament.
Lian you tells him that Shen ruochu gave it to him. If Shen ruochu doesn't like the child, how can she give such a valuable thing? She thinks about it. Then she realizes that Shen ruochu is acting for her.
Shen ruochu gave this Lanzhi jade to Lian you. It was a birthday gift from Han's father when she was nine years old. It was a mascot. She hoped that Lian you would not suffer any more and her life would be much more smooth.
I didn't expect that because of this Lanzhi jade pendant, the eldest lady saw through her trick.
Shen ruochu was blocked for the first time and couldn't speak. After all, this kind of thing is related to the old lady's dusty past, because what she gave her is good medicine to make up for her wound.
But maybe she was wrong. She just uncovered the scar of the eldest lady and then took the opportunity to sprinkle a handful of salt on it. It was really too much.
"I'm sorry, madam. I didn't think about it. This child, just stay here. I hoped he would follow you, get better education and have a good family. I'm selfish." Shen ruochu apologizes to his wife.
She used to be the most unyielding. Even though she had been warned by her execution, she was still unwilling and wanted to have a try. Now she knows that there are not so many things in the world that go smoothly.
When talking, Shen ruochu came forward to pull Lian you and brought her. Just as Shen ruochu was pulling Lian you, the eldest lady didn't let go. Some harsh voice said, "I'm too kind-hearted to see others like this. I've raised this child."
Although she said that, she liked Lian you very much. She had to say that Shen ruochu was a very smart woman. She should have known when Shen ruochu picked up the third wife.
Lian you is nine years old. She is about the same age as the child she didn't have. She is very similar in all aspects. Before, no one asked her to adopt again. There were too many children in her family and her mother's family, so she refused.
Those children were brought over directly from the confinement, and what she thought was that her son, who was brought up through hard work, was not as direct as Shen ruochu.
How can she not like a nine-year-old child who is eloquent and loves people as much as her son?
Shen ruochu was very happy when she heard the old lady's words. Originally, she thought it was yellow. Unexpectedly, the old lady agreed. There is a word called a false alarm. She thinks she is now.
Li Xing is very happy with this. Naturally, he is also happy for Shen ruochu. It shows that Shen ruochu has a way to do things.
Shen ruochu gratefully took the big lady's hand: "big lady, you believe me, if this child is taught well, he will be filial to you."
Such a big child knows how to fight for her dead parents, which is enough to shake her to leave him in the Chen family.
The eldest lady nodded: "I know, he is very sensible." Just now he saw that he was in tears. He wiped her tears and comforted him. The child was very careful.
With a faint smile, Shen ruochu put his arms around Lian you's shoulder and said to the eldest lady, "eldest lady, we are leaving tomorrow. Can I have a few words with Lian you?"
The eldest lady nodded. If there was no more words, Shen ruochu took Lian you into the inner room. Looking at Shen ruochu and Lian you's back, the eldest lady spoke softly, saying to Li Xing: "you've found a wonderful daughter-in-law."
This is praise, some clever, but used in evil, but Shen ruochu's wisdom is used in good, is not the same.
Li Xing listened to the big lady's praise, and a glimmer of satisfaction flashed from her eyes: "that's what I like. It must be good."
The eldest wife once took him, and the relationship between them must be more intimate than that with others. She was strict and had no rules to tease the eldest wife.The eldest lady glanced at her and said with a smile, "don't be proud of such a good daughter-in-law. Other people are not blind. There are many people who care about her. I can see that your daughter-in-law doesn't love power and money. If you don't care, it's hard to say."
She is quite accurate in judging people. Shen ruochu's temperament and generosity towards a child of her own family show that this woman is free from vulgarity.
"Would you mind not opening one pot or lifting it?" He turned his lips.
The words of the eldest lady are undoubtedly the pain of the execution. The fact is that they are so lost in the city that they miss Shen ruochu too much.
Ruiqi, Li Chen, Qi Rong, others, and others he didn't know. When you think about Li Xing, you feel a headache. It's a real headache.
The eldest lady no longer pays attention to Li Xing. She sits on one side drinking tea and quietly waiting for Lian you. She will still take the child back tonight.
Inside, Shen ruochu sits on a black lacquer wood chair beside him. Lian you stands in front of Shen ruochu. Shen ruochu looks at Lian you, reaches for Lian you's hand and asks, "does your sister hurt you?"
At that time, those times were for the sake of acting for the eldest lady. Although she paid attention to the strength, it still hurt when she hit her hand. It's just that Lian you didn't shout pain.
Lian you cleverly shook his head: "no pain, no pain at all." It really doesn't hurt. He told the eldest lady that she didn't believe it at first.
Shen ruochu reached out and touched Lian you's head and said again, "that's good. What my sister has done today is for you. Lian you, from today on, you will stay in the Chen family and live with the eldest wife. She will treat you well. You will have a home. In the future, you will have the protection of the Chen family and the eldest wife. No one will dare to bully you any more."
The child's life is hard. It's hard to imagine that she could grow vegetables to support herself when she was a little older. She didn't think that even you could do well when she got there.
Lian you just looks at Shen ruochu and nods. Shen ruochu knows that he still doesn't understand. After two years, when he grows older, he will understand.
Shen ruochu told Lian you a few words, and then went out with Lian you. When they got to the outside, the eldest lady was waiting. As soon as they came out, the eldest lady reached out and took Lian you's hand: "I'll take the child back to support him. Don't worry, since I'm willing to support him, I'll certainly support him well and won't let him be wronged."
This is the first lady's guarantee to Shen ruochu.
Shen ruochu naturally knew that, otherwise, he would not have sent the child to the eldest lady: "you are suffering. I'm the parents of the child. Thank you."
It must be said that it takes a lot of courage for the eldest lady to forget the past and leave her children by her side. She was just gambling at the beginning.
If there is no more, the eldest lady leaves Zhuwan.
It's hard for them to stay in Zhuwan at night. They embrace each other and sleep until dawn.
The next morning, Shen ruochu and Li Xing got up, packed up their things, said goodbye to the old man and several elders, and went back to the city with all kinds of gifts prepared at home.
At the door of Chen's house, there were some strict little uncles, Chen Congzhi and Qingling. Qingling took Shen ruochu's hand and turned red like a little girl.
After all, Shen ruochu is about to leave. Why are they not willing? In this family, except Shen ruochu, no one is so willful.
"What are you crying for? What a shame! "Chen Congzhi looked at Qingling in disgust.
Qingling sniffed, glanced at Chen Cong and asked Shen ruochu, "can I go to see you in the Lost City in the new year?"
In fact, she wanted to go for a long time. She thought she was frivolous and would only disgrace her aunt. She was not allowed to go.
Shen ruochu looks at Qingling. She is really cute. She can't help pinching Qingling's cheek. It's still very good. No wonder Lu Yiwan always likes pinching her face.
"Of course, I'll wait for you in the Lost City, and then I'll show you around. The lost city and Shaocheng are still different. There are a lot of new things." Shen ruochu said with a smile.
Two people like is about to separate handkerchief hand in the same, hard to bear patience waiting there, one side of Chen Congzhi think women are really affectable.
"OK, OK, at the end of the year, my little uncle, I'll take you to MI Cheng. Don't be hypocritical. It's late. If it's late, it'll be midnight." Chen Congzhi couldn't help urging.
Qingling turned her lips, but she didn't dare to answer back. After all, Chen Congzhi would beat her, really.
Shen ruochu couldn't help looking into the room. He was looking for it all the time, and his eyebrows tied.
