Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 150 Shen Yuewei's Strangeness
Zhu Jintang is not a talkative person, and he rarely speaks well for others.

Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Yao exchanged glances. The old lady smiled and said, "Well, my grandson-in-law is telling the truth. The best thing about my granddaughter is that she is careful."

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang nodded in agreement.

However, Yao tucked twice in his heart: "Look at this, the relationship between the two is not bad. People should not be fooled by appearances. They used to be like a boring gourd in the Shen family, but they never thought that they would have a good time in the in-law's house." Said, and got Zhu Jintang's love so quickly."

Shen Yuechen lowered her head slightly while drinking tea, not wanting others to see her blushing face.

Old Mrs. Shen knew that she was thin-skinned, so she immediately changed the subject and said, "Your father won't be back until later, and the room for you young couple to rest is already ready."

Zhu Jintang nodded and signaled his followers to present the prepared gifts one by one.

The gift prepared by the Zhu family is naturally the best.

Mrs. Shen opened the gift boxes one by one to check, and saw that they were filled with first-class things, including tonics, gold and silver jewelry, and antique jade articles specially prepared for Shen Zhiyun, which were very gorgeous.

The room where Shen Yuechen and Zhu Jintang rested was in the yard behind the main house. Mrs. Shen personally watched and ordered that the room be tidied up a month in advance, and all the things in the room were newly purchased.

Because of the new residence, Zhu Jintang did not have the opportunity to see what his wife's boudoir looked like when she was not married.The last time I was at Shen's house because I came and went in a hurry, I also didn't have a chance to go and have a look.

Shen Yuechen and Zhu Jintang went back to their room to rest together, and the accompanying servants also had a short rest.

Mrs. Shen caringly ordered the hot water, hot tea and hot rice to be prepared at any time.

After traveling all the way, it would be a lie to say that you are not tired.However, Shen Yuechen didn't feel sleepy at all, so he simply asked Chunming and Cuixin to pack their luggage together.

Zhu Jintang was much more at ease than her, took a short nap, and when he woke up, he saw that Shen Yuechen was still busy outside, sorting out those trivial things.

Thinking about it carefully, she felt the same way last time in Texas. Every time she returned to her natal family and saw her natal family, she would act slightly nervous and cautious.

It stands to reason that she should be the most comfortable around her family, but she is different from others.

Shen Yuechen was busy for a while, then turned around and took a look inside, only to see that Zhu Jintang had already woken up, looking straight at him with a pair of black eyes, with a trace of questioning and doubt in his eyes.

Shen Yuechen smiled slightly, walked to his bed and sat down, "Did you sleep well?"

Zhu Jintang said lightly: "Fortunately, after a good night's sleep, I'm not so tired anymore."

Although he was relieved from fatigue, his face was still deeply tired.

Shen Yuechen looked a little distressed, seeing that he was about to sit up, he stretched out his hand to stop him lightly, and said: "There is still a long time before dinner, sir, you can lie down a little longer."

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang lay back silently, looked at her and said, "What about you? Will your body be able to bear it if you go on like this?"

Shen Yuechen said with a smile: "I'm fine." After she finished speaking, she purposely put her hands on her hips and put on a very imposing posture.

Zhu Jintang raised his eyebrows, and smiled slightly when provoked by her childish behavior.

Shen Yuechen personally covered him with a quilt, patted his back lightly, and let him sleep for a while.

Zhu Jintang moved his body suddenly, leaned against the inner side of the bed, then patted the vacant space beside him, and said, "You can also lie down for a while. It's also good to rest your mind."

Hearing this, Shen Yuechen raised his head and took a look outside, only to see that Chun Ming and Cui Xin had all retreated at this moment, and they folded their clothes and lay beside him.

At this time, Mrs. Shen was drinking tea happily in the room, and when she heard Mammy Li say that everything was settled over there, the smile on her face grew even wider.

Yao Shi saw that she couldn't hide the smile on her face, so she couldn't help but whispered: "Mother, are you so happy?"

Looking at her now, she is even happier than when Shen Zhiyun went to Beijing to take office.

Old Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "It's rare for the family to be together, so I'm naturally happy. Son-in-law is a busy person, it's not easy to come here once, we have to entertain him well."

When Yao shi heard these words, he felt calluses growing out of his ears.Recently, in the past month, the old lady has been talking about these few words almost every day, repeating them over and over again.

The Shen family regards Zhu Jintang as a distinguished guest, not only the old lady Shen attaches great importance to it, but even Shen Zhiyun, who has been cleaned up as a minister, also cares very much.

Shen Zhiyun came back in the official sedan chair, and when he heard that his daughter and son-in-law had arrived, a smile appeared on his cloudy face.

Shen Zhiyun has been in the capital for less than half a year, and his foundation is still unstable. Even if he is personally recommended by Mr. Chen, in the eyes of those dignitaries, he is still a complete newcomer, not worthy enough, not high enough.

Although the Zhu family and the Shen family are in-laws, they have a close friendship with the Ruan family, but it is difficult for the Shen family to use the Ruan family's face to make a fuss in the capital.

Today, the Ruan family can be regarded as the most powerful among the powerful, no matter in terms of seniority or current power in the court, they are among the best.

If Shen Zhiyun wanted to establish a relationship with the Ruan family, he had to go through the Zhu family's matchmaking.Although it is only a bit of a turning point, it is also a relationship worth taking advantage of.

As long as the emperor does not seize the title of the Duke of Jingguo, the title can be passed on forever. Although Ruan Xiping is the second son and does not inherit the title, he has the support of his family and a daughter who has been promoted to concubine to help each other. It's definitely not bad, maybe the position in the future will be better and higher than that of Ruan Dongsheng who can inherit the title.

Shen Zhiyun hurried into the courtyard. If he had known that the two of them would be home today, he would have come back early.

After Shen Zhiyun came back, Nanny Li personally went over to invite Shen Yuechen and Zhu Jintang over.

The dinner was ready, and after greeting each other, everyone took their seats.

The men drink and the women drink tea.

Although Shen Zhiyun came back after drinking from outside, he still insisted on having a good drink with his son-in-law.

Zhu Jintang is a person who can drink, but he is stable by nature and doesn't talk much.During the dinner, they just listened carefully to Shen Zhiyun's high-spirited talk, and after listening to it, they nodded and smiled from time to time, and echoed a few words with Shen Zhiyun indifferently.

Shen Zhiyun's three sentences are almost inseparable from the government, and the meaning inside and outside the words is the most clear.

Zhu Jintang obviously came prepared this time, and no longer acted indifferently like last time.

Shen Yuechen saw that he was talking happily with his father, and his demeanor was casual and relaxed, completely without the usual sharpness and indifference, as if he had changed.How should I put it, it really feels like a submissive son-in-law who wants to behave well in front of his father-in-law.

After dinner, all the female relatives retreated outside to talk and drink tea, leaving only Shen Zhiyun and Zhu Jintang to talk about business matters.

In the outside room, Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Yao praised Zhu Jintang a lot, saying that he is polite and thoughtful, and that he prepared gifts that are very thoughtful and thoughtful.

Shen Yuechen smiled lightly inadvertently, but was noticed by her younger sister Shen Yuekui, and said softly: "Looking at Eldest Sister's complexion, she is much better than before. She really is the feng shui supporter of a rich family."

Although Shen Yuexuan's words were compliments, the tone of her words sounded more like sarcasm.

Shen Yuechen smiled lightly, and only heard old lady Shen answer: "The Zhu family's Fengshui nourishes people, it's natural."

Hearing this, Shen Yuexuan smiled lightly, and looked up to the opposite inner room, where Zhu Jintang's side face was clearly visible.

Zhu Jintang was originally a good-looking man, with regular features and a high nose bridge. When he smiled, his thin lips were slightly pursed, making him look even more elegant and handsome.

Or because of the eldest sister Shen Yuechen, Shen Yueqiu couldn't help being interested in Zhu Jintang, who is her brother-in-law.

Before her elder sister got married, she heard about Zhu Jintang from her mother, Yao Shi. Although there were only a few words, it was enough.Born lonely, restricted his wife and children, born rich and honored, with an indifferent personality... I thought he was born with an unknown person, and he must have an unlucky face, but the fact is just the opposite.

Although Shen Yuexuan didn't want to admit it, she still envied Shen Yuechen for having such good luck.

Shen Yuexuan's gaze stayed on Zhu Jintang for a while, then hurriedly retracted, looking down at the handkerchief in her hand, the depression in her heart was getting deeper and deeper.

Now, she is already engaged in a marriage, but she doesn't know if her future husband will be as romantic and unrestrained as Zhu Jintang... If not, then she is too bad, too worthless... Mr. Shen The wife's eyes are the most poisonous, seeing Shen Yuekui who is usually lively and cheerful, but now she suddenly has no words, but instead shows a bit of restraint and reserve, and she can't help but secretly think a little bit in her heart.

She has never been a child of her own birth, what's more, this place is all her own family, only one Zhu Jintang can be regarded as a guest, but she has met him before.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Shen became a little clearer, and sighed secretly in her heart: It is true that the girls are not allowed to stay in college. In a flash, the children have grown up and reached the age to marry.

Shen Yuechen didn't speak all the time, and when she saw Shen Yueqiu sitting across from her, she always looked up and looked behind her, while the old lady Shen had a meaningful smile on her face, feeling more and more puzzled in her heart.

Yao shi didn't notice anything strange about her daughter, she put all her attention on Shen Yuechen, although she was smiling and looked very relaxed, she didn't say a word to her for a long time.And Shen Yuechen was obviously a little absent-minded. Although they were mother and daughter, they didn't have the affection that mother and daughter should have. Instead of talking and chatting pretending to be affectionate and boring themselves, it's better to sit quietly.

Shen Yueying has been sitting next to Shen Yuexuan, and has long noticed that she has been secretly looking at her eldest brother-in-law Zhu Jintang, and she couldn't help but slightly twitched the corners of her mouth, with a smile that was not a smile.

Shen Yuechen vaguely felt that the atmosphere was a bit subtle, and then remembered something, and said: "I heard that the two younger sisters in the family are engaged. Speaking of which, I haven't formally congratulated you yet."

Mrs. Shen heard the words and said with a smile: "Well, there are many happy events in our family this year, and your two younger sisters are also engaged, just like the two younger sisters of your second uncle's family, and they are all waiting to get married. .”
