Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 114: The Heart (1)

She is indeed reassuring, but also a little uneasy.

The time of getting along is getting longer and longer, and he has somewhat touched Shen Yuechen's temperament.And when I think of her usual gentle and calm behavior, the extremely meticulous thoughts in everything she does, and her meek attitude of always wanting nothing, everything seems so unusual.

Since he was a child, he traveled all over the world, who has not seen the people who greeted him?Obviously still a face that is still immature, why?But it always makes people feel unpredictable.

Zhu Jintang turned over again, looked at the slender back of the person next to the pillow expressionlessly, and his eyes became darker.

Either she is too naive, does not eat the fireworks of the world, and her heart is as pure as the pure and transparent spring water in the ethereal valley, which falls from the sky and is spotless.Or the city is extremely deep, hidden, silently keeping all thoughts in the bottom of my heart, unknown to others... People's hearts are always changeable, and human feelings are always worrying.

Shen Yuechen's mind was spinning all over, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, and his head went numb after thinking about it for a whole night.She stayed up almost all night, but kept her eyes closed, and when she heard the movement outside the tent, it was already morning.

Chunming and the others were carrying hot water in, and they were about to add some charcoal to the charcoal basin.

This night passed extraordinarily long.

Shen Yuechen sat up gently, and subconsciously glanced at Zhu Jintang beside him, but saw that his back was still facing her, as if he had kept this posture all the time.

Shen Yuechen, who didn't sleep well all night, still looks refreshed. She put on her clothes and got up, walked to the carved bronze mirror, looked at her face without any tiredness, and said to herself: It's good to be young. If you don't sleep well all night, you won't lose your complexion.Also, those tonics and supplements were not taken in vain.

Chun Ming stood behind her with a smile on his face, holding on to the mahogany comb, combing her waist-length hair one by one.

"Miss, did you sleep well last night? Did you feel uncomfortable with accumulated food?"

Shen Yuechen smiled faintly after hearing the words: "No, I slept well."

As soon as her words fell, there was movement in the tent. Zhu Jintang lifted the curtain, sat by the bed, and said in a low voice, "Looking at tea."

Shen Yuechen was slightly taken aback, thought that he was sleeping soundly, but unexpectedly he had already woken up.

She held the tea herself and brought it to Zhu Jintang's mouth. Seeing him take a sip, she spit it out immediately: "It's lukewarm. It's not pleasant to drink. Change me to a cold cup."

Shen Yuechen hurriedly said: "Master, take care of yourself, drinking tea on an empty stomach hurts your stomach the most..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Jintang put down his teacup with a displeased face, slapped the table heavily with his fingers, and said, "Whispering."

In fact, he didn't sleep well last night, and his eyes were slightly blue.

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen's expression changed slightly, and he immediately ordered Chunming to make a cup of new tea and let it cool before bringing it back. He reached out and took clothes from the shelf for Zhu Jintang to put on, and said quietly: "Master, please wait a moment."

He also looked like he hadn't slept well.Could it be that because he cared about what she said last night, he thought she had overstepped and said something that shouldn't be said.

It's cold after the snow, and the hot tea will soon cool down.Shen Yuechen sent the tea bowl to Zhu Jintang again, but he didn't want to drink it anymore, and went to the clean room to wash in silence.

Shen Yuechen stood there without moving, Chunming immediately came up and asked softly, "Miss, what's wrong with you, sir?"

Looking at his appearance, he doesn't seem to be angry at getting up, but as if he is angry with the young lady.

Shen Yuechen sighed slightly, without any fluctuations on his face, he just said softly: "Don't worry about it, you go tell the people in the yard, let them cheer up, and don't make the uncle angry."

Chun Ming nodded and immediately understood.

After Zhu Jintang washed up, he changed his clothes and went out without even eating breakfast.

Because it is too cold, when the food is delivered from the kitchen, the food box must be placed on a small stove with charcoal to warm it, so that the food will not be easily cooled.

In Zhu Jintang's absence, Shen Yuechen's meal preparation was a little simpler. She only asked Mama Wu to prepare some japonica rice porridge, a bowl of steamed minced meat and eggs, plus a few small gold shredded rolls, and a few side dishes.

Shen Yuechen was thinking about the scene last night, thinking about Zhu Jintang's sudden change of attitude in the morning, she just felt that the food in her mouth tasted like nothing, as if she was chewing wax.

She just wanted to put down her chopsticks, but stopped halfway, changed her mind, picked up a gold wire roll again, and took a bite.

She has to eat even if she doesn't want to, there are too many variables in the future, she has to accumulate energy well.

Tomorrow, Ruan Linluo will return to the capital.

The old lady was reluctant, the eldest lady was also reluctant, and Shen Yuechen was naturally also reluctant.

The pistachios at home are leaving, and I don't know what year and month it will be when I see you next time.

Next year, Ruan Linluo will be 15 years old, and it's time to choose someone to marry. Once the marriage is settled, she will be the prospective daughter-in-law of someone else's family, and it will be even more inconvenient to go out.

The old lady didn't want to cry in front of the child, but unfortunately, she couldn't hold back in the end.

Ruan Linluo was not a child who loved to cry, but she couldn't help herself when she saw the old lady's eyes turn red.

Li Shi and Chai Shi couldn't help picking up their handkerchiefs and dabbing at the corners of their eyes, and shed a few tears with them.

A roomful of women were crying, but Shen Yuechen didn't shed tears, but lowered her head slightly with a melancholy expression.

Ruan Linluo leaned in the arms of the old lady, and the feelings in her heart gradually calmed down. After she stopped her tears, she showed her trademark sweet smile again, and asked the old lady, "Grandma, don't be sad. Wait until next spring when the flowers bloom." , you and your uncles and aunts will go to the capital to play together, and then you will be able to meet your grandson again."

The old lady sniffed, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll follow you. When I'm free later, we'll go to the capital too."

Ruan Linluo was overjoyed when she heard the words, looked at the old lady, stretched out her finger and said, "Grandma must keep her word, let's pull the hook!"

The old lady smiled, stretched out her finger and hooked her.

"The pull hook counts, and it must not be changed for 100 years!"

Ruan Linluo said joyfully, "Grandma made a hook with me, so don't go back on your word."

"Not allowed to change for another 100 years? I am a person with old bones."

Ruan Linluo leaned against the old lady's face and said softly, "Grandpa and grandma will surely live to be a hundred years old, and another 100 years is not too much."

The old lady was even more happy when she heard this, she put her arms around her granddaughter's shoulders and said with a smile, "Oh, you little naughty boy is going to turn both of us into old goblins."

In a few words, Ruan Linluo coaxed the old lady into a happy mood.

Shen Yuechen gave Ruan Linluo a bracelet last time, this time she was going back to Beijing, Shen Yuechen naturally had to prepare some small gifts.

Last time it was a meeting gift, this time it was a farewell gift.

The more expensive the meeting gift is, the more dignified it is, while the farewell gift is the most important thing.

However, since they are not of the same generation, there must always be a rule in giving and returning gifts.

Shen Yuechen is not good at female celebrities, but she can do some needlework on a whim. She embroidered an embroidered purse for Ruan Linluo.

Although the pattern is simple and looks ordinary, it is finally done by hand.Moreover, there is a jade ring stuffed in the purse, which is small, exquisite and crystal clear.

In this way, there is a heart, and a face.

Shen Yuechen handed the purse into Ruan Linluo's hands, and said with a smile: "I'm a clumsy person, I hope my sister won't laugh at this little thought. I will go home often when I have free time, so that we can talk together .”

Seeing this, Ruan Linluo took the purse, looked it over carefully, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law is too polite, I've only been here for a few days, this purse is beautifully embroidered, and your needlework is better than mine."

Shen Yuechen said with a smile: "It is said that my sister's needlework is good, I dare not compare it to you, lest I be inferior to you and lose face as my sister-in-law."

Ruan Linluo said embarrassingly: "I have only been here for half a month, but I received a carload of gifts."

Shen Yuechen smiled and said: "What the elders gave is that the elders love my sister. As a sister-in-law, if I don't show my heart, I will wrong my sister. What's more, my sister is such a sensible and well-behaved person. How much should I give?" It doesn't bother me."

After Ruan Linluo heard her words, she immediately smiled happily, but when she was smiling, she suddenly stopped smiling, sighed with emotion, and said, "Oh, I don't know when we met again? Sister-in-law, don't forget me..."

Shen Yuechen held her hand, and persuaded softly: "How could I forget? With a good sister like you, I can't forget it even if I want to. Besides, the days to come are still long. My sister will come back next year. , the two of us went to the garden together to enjoy the flowers and talk."

Ruan Linluo nodded first, then shook her head again.

Talking heart to heart is naturally the best, but I don't know if there will be such an opportunity in the future.

Although she loves to be coquettish, she is no longer a child.This time, the reason why her mother agreed to let her come out was not because of her marriage.

Since, years ago, she had overheard the women discussing in private that the family was going to make an engagement for her.

However, the servants overheard and whispered that she never took it seriously.However, the more she didn't take it seriously, the more gossips in the family became more and more, and there were even more exaggerated rumors that the family was going to send her to the palace... She didn't believe it at first, but in her heart There is always a pimple that I can't let go of, and the attitude of the family members towards her is getting better every day, even the eldest aunt, who usually doesn't like to see her, treats her kindly... How is the uncle's family usually in the mansion? He wants to be dignified and face-to-face, and even treats his father and mother with a neither cold nor indifferent attitude, so why is he so pleasant to her.

Shen Yuechen saw that her complexion was different, and couldn't help asking with concern: "Sister, is there something on your mind?"

Ruan Linluo said lightly: "If you say yes, you have it, if you say no, you don't."

Shen Yuechen was slightly taken aback, and only said: "My sister's words make me a little confused."

Ruan Linluo said: "Things are a little unclear for a while, and I also hope that I am overwhelmed. Sister-in-law, I really want to go back, but I am afraid that after I go back, I will never be able to come out..."

Different from the clear and hearty ones in the past, at this time, her tone was filled with deep worry and hesitation, and she didn't look like her at all.

Before she could finish her sentence, Shen Yuechen gently covered her mouth, and said angrily: "You are so young, what naughty things are you talking about? There is no taboo in my heart."

Ruan Linluo nodded and smiled, "Isn't that right, I must be confused... How could such a thing of climbing dragons and phoenixes fall on me."
