Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 236 Shen Yuechen Appears a Strong Enemy

Li Jiuniang and her sister, Li Shi, have been exchanging letters. Although Li Shi has never met Tong Chuchu, she can occasionally learn about Tong Chuchu's excellence from a few words in her letters.

My own sisters are always better than outsiders. Although Li Jiuniang is not willing to let her precious daughter be a concubine, Li Shi's promise finally moved her. Moreover, the other party is the Zhu family, so it's okay to suffer a little bit of grievance.

Li Jiuniang knew that if her daughter had such a ostentatious appearance, if she casually finds an ordinary person to marry, it will definitely make her husband's family have many scruples, and it will easily cause trouble... So, she gritted her teeth cruelly and gave her daughter Chu Chu away Come here, thinking, it's better to stay in Zhu's house, so as not to be worried about by the disciples of the three religions and nine streams outside, and have no peace... Now Li Shi is only thinking about suppressing Shen Yuechen, and she doesn't have so many scruples and cautions in her heart. She looked at Tong Chuchu like this With an impeccable face, I couldn't help being happy.

With such a child in front of his eyes, even a wooden man would be tempted.

Tong Chuchu didn't come in a hurry, her luggage was well prepared, and she also brought a personal maid named Hong Ling, who served her since childhood.

Before Tong Chuchu left home, her mother bid farewell to her, and told her to please her aunt, and not to come back when she went, but to stay in Zhu's house.

Looking at Li Shi's smiling face, Tong Chuchu's mind sank slightly.

Seeing that she was quiet and not talking much, Li Shi asked the maids to lead her down to rest, and then took her to greet the elders after dinner.

Leaving Nanny Sun to talk, Mrs. Li first asked, "Is everything all right at my natal home? How is mother?"

Grandma Sun rushed back all the way, and she didn't even have time to drink tea, so she hurriedly replied: "Go back to Ma'am, everything is fine at my natal house, the uncle and the second master, the eldest lady and the second lady have entrusted slaves to you Just a word, I wish you well and gave you a lot of gifts. The old lady is still in good health, but occasionally she suffers from a cough, and she still needs some medicine to keep an eye on it. During the few days when the maidservant left, the old lady was I'm not feeling well, and I'm resting in bed, so I didn't find time to talk to my servants, but I just sent someone to tell you, madam, to write more letters back from time to time."

Li Shi nodded slightly when she heard the words: "Mother has been suffering from it for many years. Now that the weather is getting hotter every day, it will not be a serious problem. As for my brother and sister-in-law, they are also interested."

Nanny Sun continued: "Before leaving, Miss Nine asked a servant to deliver a letter to Madam." After speaking, she took out a neatly folded envelope from her cuff and handed it to Li Shi.

Li Shi opened it and saw that the letter was filled with Li Jiuniang's gratitude to her and her deep reluctance to her daughter.

Seeing that she was so affectionate, Li Shi couldn't help feeling a little emotional, and secretly sighed in her heart: Let's be sisters, of course I won't harm you, hand over Chu Chu to the Zhu family, and only she will have a happy life in the future.

There are many vacant rooms in the west courtyard, so Li chose a chic wing room for Tong Chuchu so that she could live in it with peace of mind.

Tong Chuchu looked at the exquisiteness of the room, feeling sad instead of happy, and felt that everything was cold, not as warm and intimate as the boudoir at home.

Her maid, Hong Ling, was happier than her. She fumbled here and there, and when she got to the vanity mirror, she secretly opened the jewelry box and said in amazement: "Miss, come and take a look, there is really something here .”

Tong Chuchu didn't hear about it, Hongling walked over immediately, seeing her sullen look, she hurriedly asked: "Miss, what's wrong? Are you homesick?"

Tong Chuchu's red lips moved slightly, and said softly: "What's the use of thinking? Can I go back?"

Hong Ling lowered her head when she heard the words, and said: "Miss, madam also sent her here to enjoy the blessings for the sake of her. Since you are here, please rest assured, you should be more happy, miss."

Tong Chuchu really couldn't be happy, so she said, "What's there to be happy about being a concubine?"

Hong Ling was slightly taken aback, quickly looked around to see if there was anyone, and whispered: "Miss, don't talk nonsense, we just arrived at Zhu's house, be careful that the walls have ears."

Tong Chuchu said lightly: "What am I afraid of? People can listen to it if they like."

Hong Ling has served her for many years, and knows her temperament best. Ever since she left home, the young lady has been sulking in her heart. She was sullen along the way, secretly blaming the madam and the master for their cruelty.

Hong Ling knows that she is strong, and she is unwilling to bow down to others, especially for such a lifelong event.

"Miss, don't be awkward. I heard that the young master Biao is not an ordinary person. He is dignified and gentle. He must be a person who will make the miss admire."

In the past, Madam used to talk about Young Master Biao. These servants, after hearing too much, couldn't help being curious, and wanted to see such an extraordinary man with their own eyes.

Hongling's clever mouth is the best at talking, and she has a way of persuading people.However, these words are of no use to Tong Chuchu, all she thinks about now is going home, going home... On the first day Tianxiang Building opened, Shen Yuechen has been busy all day, tired and tired, but she also enjoys it.

However, as soon as she arrived home, Wu Ma rushed in and reported: "Miss, there is a visitor from Da Furen's side this afternoon. It's a girl, and now she's staying in the west courtyard."

The appearance of Tong Chuchu really amazed the servants of the Zhu family. Those who had seen her naturally had to discuss with each other, and those who hadn't had time to see her were also secretly anxious, looking for opportunities to take a stroll by the west courtyard stroll.

Hearing this, Shen Yuechen felt a little displeasure in his heart, and then he lowered his eyes, thinking, this Li family really didn't give up, not only didn't send him back, on the contrary, he stayed here graciously.

Wu Ma stood aside, still hesitating to speak, and said after a while: "I heard that the girl is very ostentatious, miss should be more careful."

Shen Yuechen was quiet, then took the teacup from Cui Xin, took two sips of tea and said, "The person the lady has worked so hard to find will naturally not be mediocre."

Didn't Brother Ming say before that she is a beauty who is compared to a fox fairy?
Hu Xian Hu Xian, just hearing these two words makes people feel difficult to deal with.However, since everyone is here, it's useless to be angry, it's better to find a chance to meet up first, to find out the depth of the situation.If it's just good-looking, that's okay, but if she's good-looking and has a scheming heart, then she has to think of a countermeasure and pre-emptively strike... Shen Yuechen drank the tea in the bowl in one breath, and immediately Instructed Chun Ming: "Prepare me hot water to bathe and change clothes, and pick out bright clothes for me."

It seemed that she herself had to dress up a bit. Although she didn't need heavy makeup to compete for beauty, she couldn't be too plain and lose her momentum.

After dinner, with the feeling of offering a treasure, Li took Tong Chuchu over to show everyone, with a smile on her face and a proud expression.

Only when Tong Chuchu stepped forward and stood up, Mr. Zhu immediately sat up straight. Those eyes, which were usually listless and slightly narrowed, were wide open this time, and they flickered her up and down, left and right. He looked left and right, and unconsciously reached out to touch the gray beard on his chin, as if he was appreciating some rare treasure.

Seeing the old man's interested appearance, the old lady frowned imperceptibly, and scolded him inwardly: "I'm not good at repairing."

Not only the old man was concentrating on watching, even Zhu Jun was a little lost for a while, but soon he regained his sanity from Chai's light coughing.

At this time, Chai Shi had a smile on his face, but his eyes were sharp, and his eyes were fixed on Tong Chuchu's body, and then he secretly scolded Li Shi in his heart.

Putting aside so many innocent and honest people, it is really unseemly to choose such a charming and enchanting one. She even suspected Li Shi's intentions. She insisted on getting this person because she wanted Zhu Jintang to accept him. The heart is still to seduce others... Everyone has their own thoughts, but the person who behaves the most plainly is still Zhu Feng.He was already old-fashioned and influenced by his mother since he was a child, so he had never been interested in women. Moreover, Tong Chuchu was brought into Zhu's house because of his wife Li Shi's ulterior motives.Therefore, he only took a few glances, and kept paying attention to his mother's expression, wondering if she would mind his wife's little care.

Although, on the surface, relatives came to stay here for a short time, but the real purpose is that everyone is very clear in their hearts.

Li Shi's small calculations were crackling, but Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen hadn't come yet, so she couldn't help but wait anxiously.

Tong Chuchu was sitting on the sidelines, being watched by everyone, but she also paid attention to everyone. The people in the Zhu family looked very friendly, but their eyes were sharper and calculating... Another stick of incense passed After a while, Shen Yuechen hurried over to pay his respects after putting on some make-up.

The maid outside hurriedly reported: "Grandma is here."

But it was just this one sentence, but Tong Chuchu felt inexplicably nervous, even she herself felt a little ridiculous... Grandma Zhu's family came, and she didn't do anything wrong, so why be nervous?
Shen Yuechen entered the room slowly, because she knew it well, she didn't even look at anyone else in the room, she just walked over and greeted the old man and the old lady first.

The old man has recovered a little bit now, looked at Shen Yuechen and said with a smile: "Your new store opened today, I heard it is very busy."

Shen Yuechen smiled and said, "It's all thanks to the elders."

Tong Chuchu lowered her eyes slightly, hearing her warm and sweet voice, her heart was pounding, and she couldn't help aiming at the opposite side from the corner of her eye.

Shen Yuechen was wearing a rouge-colored Su embroidered cloud-pattern brocade shirt, with a soft silver lily skirt underneath, a concentric bun on his head, and a jade hairpin stuck in it, with delicate eyebrows, dignified expression, and outstanding temperament. Knowing that everyone is a lady.

Tong Chuchu silently withdrew her gaze, thinking to herself, such a decent and dignified person looks at Wen Jing and speaks pleasantly, what is there to be dissatisfied with by my aunt?
After paying respects to the two old people, Shen Yuechen turned around to face Zhu Feng and Li Shifu, and when the ceremony was over, her eyes met Tong Chuchu.

Sure enough, she is a petite beauty, about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a long flowing dress, black and soft hair, red phoenix eyes, hibiscus face, a pair of sultry red phoenix eyes half-down, which accentuate the long eyelashes like fan feathers, On the face with delicate features, there was an indescribable charm and handsomeness.

A gleam of light flashed in Shen Yuechen's eyes, even if she felt displeased, she could not deny that the woman in front of her did have an impeccable face.Moreover, she is still so young, she can almost make men start to get distracted...
