Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 272 Xiaotao Seeks to See Shen Yuechen

Chai said: "What's the rush, you are less than two months old, now is a good time, you can eat whatever you want. But, don't eat too much, lest you become fat like me."

Shen Yuechen smiled slightly, and said: "You are not fat at all, you look blessed."

Chai Shi Ni glanced at her, smiled and said: "I haven't eaten the fruit yet, my mouth is so sweet, no wonder the old lady loves you."

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Shen Yuechen said slowly, "Sister Xin'er, is she asleep now? If not, I want to take a look at her..."

Zhu Jinxin is not yet full moon, she can't leave the house, she can't see the wind, she is taken care of by Mrs. Chai every day, she is very precious.Usually, even if the old lady meets, she has to come over in person.

In two lifetimes, Shen Yuechen has always liked children very much, now that she is pregnant again, and her maternal instinct is strong, she wants to see the little person who was just born.

When Chai heard this, she smiled and said, "Xin'er just woke up, I'll let the nurse take it out for you to see. However, the child is still young, so let's not speak too loudly, so as not to scare her."

Shen Yuechen nodded repeatedly.She has always known the importance, and learned a lot when taking care of brother Ming.

When the bead curtain leading to the inner room moved, I saw a slightly plump, fair-skinned nurse carefully holding a baby in a light blue satin begonia flower mattress, and respectfully said to Mrs. Chai: "Second Madam, Third Miss here we come."

Although Zhu Jinxin is the second daughter of the Chai family, her seniority is the same as Zhu Jintang and Zhu Jinlun, so the servants call her "Miss Three".

Then the wet nurse gave Shen Yuechen a little blessing, and said softly: "My maidservant greets grandma, grandma is auspicious."

Following her words, the baby in the swaddle let out a soft hum, as if laughing.

When Chai saw her daughter, her eyes were full of tenderness, she stretched out her hand, motioning the nurse to hug the child to Shen Yuechen.

However, Shen Yuechen couldn't wait to stand up, walked gently to the wet nurse, and looked over with her head.

Zhu Jinxin was born just over ten days ago, and she looks as weak as a newborn cat. Her pink face is not wrinkled, but surprisingly smooth. When she squints, her eyes are crooked, and her small nose is straight. She was tall, with small lips, and her body exuded the unique milky fragrance of babies.Just one glance can soften a puddle of water in one's heart.

Shen Yuechen had never seen a newborn child before, so she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: It really is a pitiful little child.

She wanted very much to touch the child's little face with her own hands, but she didn't dare, as she felt that a slight touch would damage her.

Seeing Shen Yuechen staring at her daughter intently, Mrs. Chai pursed her lips and said in her heart: After all, she is going to be a mother. Whenever she sees a child, Mrs. Chai can't take her eyes away... Seeing her dazed look, Mrs. Chai felt It's funny, I couldn't help but said: "Look at what you like, you have to see it in your eyes."

Shen Yuechen's tone was full of admiration: "What a cute little doll, it's fragrant and soft, it's really likable."

When Mrs. Chai heard this, she smiled triumphantly, feeling very proud in her heart, and said to herself: "Of course she is cute. I don't care who gave birth to her. My daughter must be the most well-behaved and cutest in the world."

Chai waved to the wet nurse, and asked her to bring the baby to him.

Shen Yuechen reluctantly withdrew his gaze and returned to his position.

Chai hugged her daughter and kissed her again and again, seeing her yawning, she handed her back to the wet nurse just now and asked her to take her down to rest.

Shen Yuechen sat at the side and chatted with Chai for a few homely things, but after all, the two of them were not close enough, and what they talked about was all irrelevant gossip.

Shen Yuechen sat down for a while, then got up to say goodbye.

On the way back, Shen Yuechen was full of thoughts about Zhu Jinxin's cute appearance, so she couldn't help feeling a little lost.

Seeing this, Cui Xin couldn't help asking: "What are you thinking about, miss? You're so preoccupied?"

Shen Yuechen said in a daze: "It's nothing, I just think that little baby is really cute, no matter how much I look at it, I can't get enough of it."

Hearing this, Cui Xin couldn't help but chuckled and said, "Miss, don't worry, there is a little treasure hidden in your stomach. You will be able to see him when the month comes. Miss's child must be older than Miss San's." A hundred times cuter, no, no, a thousand times..."

Shen Yuechen couldn't help smiling when she heard this, and was about to speak when she suddenly saw a charming figure of Pingting walking across her, her eyes narrowed slightly, and then she deliberately asked, "Who is that girl in front? Why does it look familiar to me?" ..."

Cuixin raised her eyes, and hurriedly replied: "Miss, you forgot, that is Miss Xiaotao next to the Second Young Master. You saw her once in the old lady's room last time, and you said she was a beauty. Slaves I heard that Miss Xiaotao is already pregnant with the second master's child, and her current status can be regarded as half a concubine, only missing a decent title."

Zhu Jinlun doesn't have a regular wife yet, so even if she has a housekeeper, she doesn't have a decent status. Therefore, if a woman like Xiaotao wants a legitimate position, she still has to wait for the future Second Young Mistress to give it to her. .

Shen Yuechen nodded lightly, although she was as bright as a mirror in her heart, she still pretended on purpose.

Xiaotao came here on purpose today, hoping to meet Shen Yuechen, but she did not expect her wish to come true.

Chai's place is only a few walls away from Zhu Jinlun's courtyard, so the news spread quickly. If the second lady just met someone or who came, if she wants to know, it only takes a moment , you can inquire clearly.

Even though it was a chance encounter, you have to be careful.

Xiaotao walked a few steps quickly, came to Shen Yuechen, and greeted her with a smile. "Slave Xiaotao pays respects to Grandma."

Shen Yuechen smiled faintly, and said: "It turned out to be Miss Xiaotao, no wonder I looked familiar from a distance. After we met last time, we haven't seen each other for a while. I heard that the girl is already married. It's really a blessing."

That Xiaotao can also talk, and hurriedly said: "This is all thanks to your blessing, grandma. Grandma is deeply blessed. This pregnancy is the great joy of the Zhu family. The slaves congratulate you again , I wish you good health and an early birth to your precious son."

Cui Xin was beside her, so she couldn't help but feel that she was a bit glib, she only picked nice things to say, and she was very good at flattering people.

No matter how lucky our young lady is, she won't be able to touch you. This is too flattering... Xiaotao knows that there are not many chances of "encountering" grandma like this, so she took the initiative to ask: "Where is grandma going?"

Shen Yuechen glanced at her, and said calmly: "I just went to see the second lady and the third lady, and I'm about to go back now."

When Xiaotao heard this, her mind turned twice immediately, and she said, "Since this is the case, why don't you let the servants give you a ride."

Seeing that she seemed to want to follow him intentionally, Shen Yuechen pretended to be surprised and said: "The girl is also a twin now, if you send me back, wouldn't it be too troublesome?"

Xiaotao shook her head hurriedly: "I originally planned to go for a walk in the garden. It's rare to meet you, grandma. Why don't I see you off? I hope you don't dislike me, grandma..." After finishing speaking, she nibbled He licked his lips, looking a little nervous.

Shen Yuechen's eyes moved slightly, and he said: "Okay, I can't refuse the girl's kindness, so let's go."

Cui Xin was very concerned about Xiao Tao's untimely flattery, and a pair of eyes full of doubts kept circling her, looking around, as if trying to see what she was up to.

She is from the second room, so she shouldn't have anything to do with the eldest grandma. No, in other words, she is just the servant of the second young master and has no right to be with the eldest grandma.

Cuixin is rarely hostile to others, but towards Xiaotao, she is full of resistance and disgust.

Xiao Tao staggered a step slightly, deliberately following behind Shen Yuechen, this made Cui Xin very displeased, she deliberately raised her eyes to stare at Xiao Tao, but in the end, she gave her a beautiful smile.

Seeing this, Cui Xin was slightly taken aback, for some reason, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

She turned her eyes away, and began to focus on the road under her feet wholeheartedly, supporting Shen Yuechen's arm with both hands, not allowing her to make any mistakes.

Xiaotao accompanied Shen Yuechen all the way through the corridor, and when she saw the small pavilion at the corner, she said again: "The sunset will be infinitely beautiful, grandma, do you want to sit there for a while and enjoy the scenery?"

Shen Yuechen raised her eyebrows, she felt that she must have been pushed by something to invite herself so plainly.

However, before she could answer, Cui Xin took a step forward and said, "Young lady, you are very rude. Our grandma has a lot of things to do, so I don't have time to sit with you. If you are in a hurry, you can go and sit by yourself." Bar."

What Cui Xin said was very blunt.

Shen Yuechen looked at Xiaotao, her smile changed slightly, but her eyes were slightly anxious.

It's just that no matter how urgent things are, I can't sit opposite her in front of people like this.

"I appreciate the girl's kindness. Good times come from time to time, but this is not the time... There will be opportunities in the future."

After hearing this, Xiaotao's expression changed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal, and said gently: "It's the slave girl who is being abrupt, and the slave girl is going to leave now, so I won't waste your time."

Shen Yuechen smiled lightly, and walked straight forward with Cui Xin and other maids.

Standing behind her, Xiao Tao couldn't help biting her lower lip, biting very hard, then Cui Xin walked a few steps in a dejected manner, couldn't help but look back at Xiao Tao again, and leaned closer to Shen Yuechen's ear , softly said: "Miss, she is really weird, she is very good-looking, why come here to blame you?"

Shen Yuechen lowered her eyes slightly, and thought, she had better have something important, it was worth taking such a big risk.

Cui Xin was still whispering, Shen Yuechen couldn't help interrupting her, saying: "I'm a little hungry, let's go back soon."

Cui Xin hurriedly agreed, and protected her all the way back to the west courtyard.

After Shen Yuechen went back, she called Wu Ma over and told her about Xiaotao.

Wu Ma was very surprised, and hurriedly said: "She shouldn't be so reckless."

Shen Yuechen said: "You shouldn't be reckless. I think she seems to have something on her mind. Mom, please go see her for me."

Wu Ma nodded and said: "That's natural, the servants must face to face, and mention her a little bit."

The eldest grandma is her master, but she can see her whenever she can't.

After Wu Ma prepared dinner for Zhu Jintang and Shen Yuechen, she hurriedly took off her apron and went to the garden alone.

Sure enough, as she expected, Xiao Tao was still in the same place, sitting quietly on the swing in the peach forest.

Xia Jiu stood by her side alone, with a melancholy face, lowered her head, and dejectedly counted the small stones at her feet.
