Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 170 Homecoming (4)

When Shen Yuechen's biological mother, Mrs. Lin, passed away, the Shen family was not yet rich, so they couldn't manage her well. There wasn't even a tombstone, so it was deserted.

Over the years, because of the taboo in my heart, I never went to Lin's cemetery again, and even the coffin was kept in Shen Yuechen's unmarried boudoir and never moved.

Shen Zhiyun was obviously still interested in what his wife Yao said.

Shen Yuechen is going back to Dezhou, no amount of effort is useless right now.

It can't be said to please her, after all, Mrs. Lin is his late wife, so it's only right to do something for her.

Old Mrs. Shen knew that it was not easy to hear these words from her mouth, so she nodded and said, "Actually, I also had this idea, but I didn't know what you thought, so I kept putting it aside. It’s something that should have been done a long time ago, but if that kid Yuechen didn’t mention it, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to.”

Shen Zhiyun continued: "Yeah, it's all because of my son's negligence. So I'm going to trouble my mother to take care of my son. Since my son has a public job, he can't go back to Dezhou..."

The old lady Shen raised her hand, signaling him not to continue, and said: "I originally planned to do it myself, you should be your official in the capital, and I will take care of Dezhou and Yuechen for you. do not worry."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhiyun quickly stood up and saluted, "Son, thank you mother for making you suffer."

Old Mrs. Shen sighed lightly: "It's not tiring, as long as our family is doing well, and you are all doing well, no matter how tired I am, it's worth it."

The old lady was still a little worried. Although Shen Yuechen escaped the catastrophe due to a blessing in disguise, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future... The old lady thought that it would be the best policy to go back to Dezhou.

Firstly, it was for Lin's sake, and secondly, it was also for Shen Yuechen's sake. In case she was wronged or bullied at Zhu's house, there would be no elders beside her who would speak up for her.

After all, the old lady knew best what kind of temperament the Erfang family had, and she definitely couldn't point it out at critical times.

When Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen came, because they were taking the official path, although they were not slow, the journey was still bumpy.

Back this time, Zhu Jintang was worried that Shen Yuechen's body would not be able to bear the bumps and fatigue, so he decided to take the carriage first, head to Jinmen, and then turn back to Dezhou by water.

Shen Yuechen does not suffer from seasickness, but when she thinks about taking a boat for nearly half a month, she can't help feeling vaguely worried, after all, the waterway is not as convenient as the land.

However, when she saw Zhu Jintang getting ready for the passenger ship, her worries disappeared immediately.

Such a huge boat looks stable and stable. Moreover, there are everything on board, including basic necessities, food, shelter, transportation, and everything. Not to mention traveling by boat, even living at home is not a problem.

Standing on the shore, Shen Yuechen was very surprised: "Where did you get this boat...?"

Zhu Jintang saw her wide-eyed, unbelievable look, and smiled slightly: "This is our Zhu family's boat. It used to be used for delivery. I sent someone to modify it a little, so that you can live more comfortably."

It turned out that Zhu Jintang had already ordered people to rebuild the ship after Shen Yuechen's accident.

This boat is not small, and it takes a lot of effort to change one place, up and down, and it took nearly three months before it was finally completed.

Seeing that she was only in a daze, Zhu Jintang stretched out his hand to gently take her and pulled her onto the boat.

Shen Yuechen was a little unsteady, and hugged his arm, and didn't care to look, but was blushed by the eyes cast around him.

There are many people standing or sitting on the shore, some are laborers, some are fishermen, and there are many old people and children selling snacks, which is very lively.

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen quickly let go of her hand, stood up straight, looked at Zhu Jintang and said, "Master, don't worry, accompany me to the cabin to have a look."

Zhu Jintang had a half-smile, still holding her hand and walked inside, not caring about those people watching the excitement around.

The two went down to the inside of the cabin, and saw that the inside was tidy and tidy, even the bedding on the bed was brand new, with a faint fragrance.

Shen Yuechen looked at the furnishings and layout in the cabin, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He spent so much time preparing, he didn't even know what to say.

At this moment, Zhu Jintang had already walked to the door, ordered his servants to bring all the luggage onto the boat, and then prepared to set off.

When the boat started, he walked slowly behind Shen Yuechen, stretched out an arm to wrap her shoulders, and said: "Later, we will pass a place where both banks are full of flowers, It’s very beautiful, and we can just enjoy tea and enjoy the scenery there.”

Shen Yuechen turned back and smiled at him, without saying anything, just kissed him lightly on the cheek as a token of thanks.

The soft lips fell on the same warm cheeks, and with a light kiss, it seemed that the petals were falling with the wind, and with the warm wind and fragrance, they came head-on.

The soft and warm feeling is as exciting as ever.

Zhu Jintang was slightly taken aback, subconsciously hugged her tightly in his arms, lowered his head and wanted to kiss her back.

Shen Yuechen turned her head and leaned on his shoulder, and before he approached, she took the initiative to meet him.

Lips touch each other, foreheads are pressed against each other, exchanging breaths, fingers are tightly intertwined, lingering endlessly.

Shen Yuechen can't remember, this is their first kiss, but there is no doubt that this kiss is the most tender and lingering kiss between two people... Shen Yuechen almost couldn't breathe, she could only lean on the On Zhu Jintang's body, he was panting slightly.

Zhu Jintang looked down at her, seeing her shyly covering her face with her hands, her mind was shaken and her whole body became hot.

Shen Yuechen was too ashamed to look up at him, but turned around and nestled in Zhu Jintang's arms, closing her eyes.

Zhu Jintang pondered for a moment, only felt that she was really happy, that's why she took the initiative.After all, just holding hands in front of people usually makes her feel burdened.

After Wu Ma and Chun Ming packed their luggage and lightly put away the tea and snacks, they withdrew again, not wanting to disturb them.

The boat travels slowly and smoothly, almost the same as on land.

When the boat got out of the crowded pier, Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen came to the bow to enjoy the scenery.

After driving for a while, Shen Yuechen finally saw the beautiful scenery that Zhu Jintang had mentioned before.

Although the boat has already left the pier, when you look up, you can still see a large peach blossom forest blooming on the shore, the pink ground, and the petals are falling down, accompanied by the flowing water, drifting away, all the way to the bed, It feels like the next rain of petals.

Shen Yuechen couldn't help being amazed, and opened her eyes wide, feeling surprised and novel.

Standing behind her, Zhu Jintang gently stroked her shoulder, and said, "When I came to Jinmen, I found a peach grove here."

Shen Yuechen was amazed for a while, before saying: "Such a large peach blossom forest is really beautiful."

There are many flowers and rain, the water surface is calm, and the reflections of the two phases are as beautiful as a fairyland, bringing bursts of freshness and beauty.

Shen Yuechen sighed in her heart. In the past, she lived at home all day long, with high courtyard walls and deep courtyards. She never had the opportunity to see what the outside world was like.

This trip to the capital city allowed her to see a lot, and it also made her realize what life and death are.Walking back from the ghost gate, such an experience is really unforgettable, and the beautiful scenery in front of me is also unforgettable.

Shen Yuechen suddenly turned around and looked at Zhu Jintang, his eyes as clear as water shone with a shrewd light, and said, "I have a small request, and I hope you can agree to it?"

Zhu Jintang grinned and nodded.

Seeing that he agreed so readily, Shen Yuechen said, "Don't you often go out, sir? You always go here and there for your family's business, so, I think I can walk with you all the way in the future, and have a good look at the outside world."

There is still a long way to go in her life, and she doesn't want to put all her thoughts and eyes on those tangled trivial things like before.

Zhu Jintang was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect her to come up on the spur of the moment, he just patted her head, and said with worry: "If you want to go out, I will take you out. But, you have to wait until you recover... In my heart, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it cannot compare to you.”

Shen Yuechen blushed immediately, peeking at Zhu Jintang, her expression became even more shy.

Seeing her like this, Zhu Jintang still smiled, let go of her shoulders, put his arms around her slender waist, and said: "If you like this place, I will ask the boatman to stop for a while and stay here for a while."

Shen Yuechen shook her head slightly, "The beautiful scenery is in your eyes, keep it in your heart, and you can see it all the time. Let's just walk slowly, there is no need to stop."

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang tapped the tip of her nose and said, "You are not greedy."

Shen Yuechen smiled: "Since the uncle agreed, he will take me to go sightseeing in the mountains and rivers in the future, so I am naturally not greedy. Because there are better and more beautiful ones."

Zhu Jintang smiled, shook his head slightly, and said nothing.

Just like this, the two of them leaned against each other, admiring the scenery on the shore.

At dusk, Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen returned to the cabin to eat and drink tea.

Although the conditions on the boat are limited, the dishes for dinner are not simple at all. There are fish and meat, and meat and vegetables are suitable.

The fish was caught just before, so it is very fresh.People who often live on water have their own way of eating fish.

They pay attention to the fresher things, the simpler to cook them, especially fish.

The guys on the boat just wash and dry the fish, put onion, ginger and garlic on the fish body, sprinkle some fine salt, and then steam it in the drawer.

The simpler the method, the more it tests the quality of the ingredients.

Shen Yuechen picked up a piece of tender white fish and put it in his mouth, tasted it, and found it very delicious without any fishy smell.

Shen Yuechen looked at the guy in charge of cooking, gave a thumbs up, and said, "Master's craftsmanship is really good, what is the secret to making this fish?"

The guy hurriedly lowered his head when he heard the words: "As for Madam, I don't have any tricks, but I just follow the recipe at home. The only thing that pays attention to in this dish is the word "fresh".

Shen Yuechen nodded with a smile, thinking about it, such a simple method also restores the original taste of the food.

Come to think of it, the word "xian" is divided into two sides, one is "fish" and the other is "sheep", which shows its meaning.

Shen Yuechen thoughtfully gave Zhu Jintang the meat of the fish belly, and there was a wine glass by his hand, which was filled with clear and transparent green plum wine.
