Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 206: The Delicate Cousin Girl vs. the Upright and Brave Cousin (1)

The water of the spring river is warm, and a large ship is slowly approaching on the endless blue waves, and finally docks in front of the pier.

When Shen Shuyi entered the new small world and regained consciousness, he first smelled a burst of noisy shouting.

"Slow down, slow down."

"Be careful not to offend the noble man."

"Carry all these boxes up."

The pier was just as noisy, with vendors busy hawking wontons and various snacks.

"Yier wake up, we're here."

Shen Shuyi opened his eyes and met the beautiful woman's smiling and expectant eyes, and his memories instantly merged perfectly.

The beautiful woman in front of him was called Zhou Shu, the original owner’s mother, and also the eldest daughter of the General’s Mansion.

This time, they went to Luoyang to visit Old Madam Zhou at the General's Mansion and discuss their daughter's marriage with Mr. Zhou Er.

"Yier, are you sleepy?" The tall man sitting next to the beautiful woman stroked her head and said, "Come, Daddy will carry you to the soft bridge to rest for a while."

Shen Shan's eyes were full of doting, and he was ready to hold his wife's hand and carry his daughter off the boat on his back.

Shen Shuyi quickly stood up and said, "Dad, I'll go by myself."

As soon as she stood up, she felt dizzy. Zhou Shu quickly supported her daughter and scolded her, "You are so weak, why did you have to stand up so quickly?"

Shen Shuyi then remembered that the original owner was a sickly young lady from a wealthy family, so she had to ask her parents to help her get off the boat.

The steward in front had already got off the boat and hired a sedan chair, and asked porters to come and carry the boxes.

"Carry it steadily to the residence of the great general who guards the country."

Before Shen Shuyi and Zhou Shu got into the sedan chair, they glanced at the dozen or so heavy boxes. They were all genuine gold, silver and jewelry. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were the dowry of the original owner.

They made such a big scene along the way that the people at the dock were amazed.

“What a grand style.”

"I heard that he was going to the General's Mansion."

"Could that noble little girl in a peach-pink dress and light veil be the daughter of the general's mansion?"

The General's Mansion had received the news and opened the main gate early.

"My eldest lady, my son-in-law and my cousin have come all the way here, thank you for your hard work. Please open the main gate to welcome them."

Shen Shuyi was helped down the soft bridge. She first took off her veil and went with her parents to pay a visit to Old Madam Zhou, the original owner's grandmother.

She was wearing a peach pink floor-length dress with a white silk ribbon tied around her slender waist. Her eyes were as bright as water and she looked a little weak and sickly, but her grace did not diminish, but instead made her look more charming.

The servants in the courtyard bowed to them when they saw them, and when they caught a glimpse of Shen Shuyi's face out of the corner of their eyes, they couldn't help but show surprise.

My cousin is so beautiful, like a fairy.

Shen Shuyi didn't know what others were thinking. After walking through the corridors and courtyards, she felt her legs were sore and weak before she reached the palace gate where Old Madam Zhou was.

This body is too delicate.

There were already quite a few people sitting in Old Madam Zhou's hall. The eldest daughter-in-law, Li, was there with her daughter Miaorong, and the second daughter-in-law, Cui, was also there with her three children. The widowed third daughter-in-law, Su, was sitting quietly aside, holding her one-year-old child.

Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but burst into tears when she saw her little daughter whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

"It's Shu'er who's back."

"Mother." Zhou Shu stepped forward quickly and knelt down at the knees of Old Madam Zhou.

Shen Shan met his father-in-law and his wife's two brothers in the front yard, while Shen Shuyi followed Zhou Shu to the old lady, who was standing in the hall.

Madam Zhou helped the man up and her eyes fell on the stunning girl in the hall. She waved her hand and said, "It's been a few years since we last met. Yi'er has grown up. Come to your grandmother."

Shen Shuyi stepped forward obediently and called out, "Grandma." She bowed softly, "Shuyi greets grandma. May grandma be blessed with good health and live a long life."

Madam Zhou was very happy and kept pulling her granddaughter's hand and sighing, "Okay, Yi'er, just stay here with your grandma and treat this place as your own home."

At this time, several eyes fell on Shen Shuyi. Shen Shuyi first met the eyes of a handsome man wearing a straight-collared robe with a gold-rimmed cloud pattern on the collar.

His whole body is as elegant as an orchid and a jade tree, giving people the feeling that he is unparalleled in the world and a man as beautiful as jade.

This is Zhou Xuanmin, the son of Mr. Zhou, who had an arranged marriage with the original owner.

Zhou Shu is not the biological daughter of Mrs. Zhou. She is the child of General Zhou’s deceased comrade-in-arms. The comrade-in-arms died to save him and entrusted the orphan to him before his death. General Zhou originally wanted Zhou Shu to marry his sons, but when he brought Zhou Shu back to the Zhou family, his two sons already had someone they loved.

Zhou Shu didn't want to take someone else's love away, so she acknowledged General Zhou as her father and became the Zhou family's goddaughter.

Old Madam Zhou had no biological daughter, and she loved this well-behaved and sensible goddaughter very much. She had long treated her as her own daughter, and later wanted to strengthen the relationship by having her grandchildren become relatives.

Shen Shuyi and Zhou Xuanmin are of similar age, one is seventeen and the other is just twenty years old.

If Zhou Shu and Shen Shan hadn't been reluctant to let their daughter get married so early and insisted on keeping her for two more years, she should have gone to Beijing to discuss her marriage when she was fifteen years old and came of age.

The Zhou family didn't seem to be in a hurry either. Madam Cui from the second house wrote back saying that Zhou Xuanmin was working hard to pass the imperial examinations and there was no rush for the marriage.

Old Madam Zhou took her by the hand and asked someone to greet her two aunts and cousins ​​of the same age.

"This is your second cousin Xuan Min. You two used to play together when you were little. Do you remember?"

Shen Shuyi stood up to greet him, and hatred surged in his heart when his eyes met Zhou Xuanmin.

She quickly restrained her expression, lowered her eyes and called out "Second cousin".

"Cousin." Zhou Xuanmin bowed slightly, his expression indifferent. The Zhou family started out as military generals, but he chose to take the imperial examination and pursue fame as a civil official. This had a lot to do with the fact that he had a talented mother.

Most of the other disciples of the Zhou family were trained in the military camp. For example, Zhou Qian, the eldest grandson born to Madam Zhou’s eldest son, joined the military camp at the age of ten.

"Cousin Yi'er." The eldest girl, Zhou Miaorong, stepped forward enthusiastically and held Shen Shuyi's hand. "Do you still remember me?"

"Of course I remember, cousin Miaorong." Shen Shuyi smiled back, making people feel that the whole room was brighter.

Zhou Xuanmin looked away when he saw this. His sister Ningxiang and brother Xuanze, who were standing next to him, also came forward to say hello.

Shen Shuyi nodded, "Cousin Ningxiang, cousin Xuanze."

Madam Zhou suddenly looked at her eldest daughter-in-law, Li, and asked, "Why is Yan Zhao nowhere to be seen?"

Li stood up and said, "Mother, Yan Zhao is coming back from the military camp and he must be home soon."

"Send someone to hurry them up."

Before the messenger left, steady footsteps were heard outside.

Then, a tall man with a straight nose, thin lips, and a posture as straight as a pine or cypress, who looked intimidating without even getting angry, walked in.

"Grandma is fine."

He bowed to Zhou Shu again, "Auntie, how are you?"

Shen Shuyi was a little slow to react when he saw Zhou Qian. He should be about 25 years old this year. Years of training on the battlefield made him look brave and strong.

"Yier?" Zhou Shu saw her daughter was stunned and hurriedly reminded her in a low voice, "Why don't you say hello to your eldest cousin?"

Could it be that she was frightened by Yan Zhao? She was particularly afraid of her eldest cousin when she was a child.

Shen Shuyi smiled and bowed to Zhou Qian with a curved eyebrow.

"Cousin Yan Zhao."

Zhou Qian looked at her and nodded slightly, "Long time no see, cousin Shuyi."
