Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 274 Reliance on Zhu Jintang
"What are you listening to, sir?" Shen Yuechen asked softly.

The child is still young, and this will not hear anything.

Zhu Jintang didn't answer, just listened quietly for a while, then raised his head, smiled and said, "It's just that I wanted to hear it all of a sudden, but you thought it wrong first."

Shen Yuechen blushed slightly, and couldn't help but glance at him again.

Who told him to say it with an ambiguous expression on purpose just now, so that people wouldn't misunderstand him.

Zhu Jintang gently stroked her belly with his big palm, and continued: "The child will be born in seven months or so."

Shen Yuechen heard a little more melancholy in his tone, and couldn't help asking: "Is the uncle a little impatient?"

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang was silent for a moment, then held her hand and said, "It's not that I can't wait, but I just feel that it's a pity that when this child is born, I'm afraid I won't be able to be by your side."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Yuechen couldn't help being extremely surprised, she sat up slowly, looked into Zhu Jintang's eyes, and said, "Master, what do you mean by these words?"

Zhu Jintang pondered and said: "The imperial court's grain requisition order is about to come down, I have to go out and find a way."

Shen Yuechen asked anxiously after hearing the words: "When is the uncle going to leave?"

Zhu Jintang showed distress and said, "Ten days later."

"Why are you in such a hurry? My uncle didn't tell me before..." Shen Yuechen paused suddenly when he said this, remembering that Zhu Jintang had said this before, but that would be an excuse for not wanting to take a concubine , but unexpectedly, Tong Chuchu is gone now, but he still wants to leave... Shen Yuechen felt mixed emotions for a while, and was speechless for a long time.

Seeing this, Zhu Jintang couldn't bear it, quickly took her into his arms gently, and explained gently: "I am the eldest son, and most of the time I can only take care of the overall situation and can't do whatever I want. I'm sorry, you have to understand me."

Since he is the eldest son, he has to take on the big and small affairs of the family without complaint or regret.This is his destiny and his life.

Shen Yuechen tremblingly said: "Then when will you be back?"

Zhu Jintang thought over and over again, and finally said: "Five or six months at the earliest, if there is any delay, it will be hard to say."

The plan does not change quickly, and many things cannot be predicted in advance. We have to look at the specific situation before we can make a conclusion.

The last time the granary outside the Zhu family city caught fire, it had already hurt the Zhu family’s vitality. In addition, the whole city would be full of black market rice that demanded sky-high prices. The Zhu family spent a lot of effort and effort to keep the price down. Of course, a lot of money was lost.

Now, the imperial court is about to start fighting again, and the conscription order has been issued, and it is estimated that the collection of food will soon come out.Zhu Jintang had to prepare in advance.

The Zhu family is well-known in Dezhou, and now they are the relatives of the imperial concubine and empress. At this time, the more you have to show your attitude, otherwise, you will lose face to the Zhu family and empress.

The Jia family wanted to be the richest man in Texas, but Zhu Jintang didn't intend to "beauty as an adult", and he wanted to keep the Zhu family's reputation and status in Texas city wholeheartedly.

Shen Yuechen knew the Jia family's ambitions, and it was Zhu Jintang's last resort. She wanted to say something, but her mouth moved, but she couldn't speak. She just lowered her head, looked at her stomach, and said in her heart: This is their first meeting. a child.

Zhu Jintang looked at Shen Yuechen's face and couldn't bear to see her silent, but he knew that he had to go on this trip, and he couldn't delay it any longer.

Shen Yuechen remained silent all this time, and when she saw Zhu Jintang looking at her with burning eyes, she couldn't help biting her lip, then lay down again on her own, turned her back on purpose, faced the inside of the bed, and stared at the person on the opposite side. The wall was in a daze, and staring at it made the eye sockets feel sore.

She was angry, but she was more wronged and uncomfortable.This child was hard-won, how could he be willing to leave like this?How can it be?

Zhu Jintang saw that she was sullen and seemed to be angry, so he had to follow her, lay down on his elbow beside her, and sighed: "This time I feel sorry for you. The overall situation is the most important thing, I have to let go!"

The overall situation is the most important thing... Shen Yuechen heard these four words, and could no longer suppress the grievances that continued to rise in her heart. She turned and looked back at him, with a faint mist in her eyes, and said: "Zhu family's Things are all big things, so things about me and my child are not big things? Sir, how long have we been looking forward to this child? How can you be willing to leave like this? There are some smart people who are quick to handle things in the Zhu family Man, why do you have to go there yourself?"

She never extravagantly asked Zhu Jintang to put her first in everything, but the matter of having a child is definitely not a small matter, and she also needs him...Because of the second wife, Chai, Shen Yuechen occasionally She will also inadvertently become a little worried about gains and losses, so when she is fragile, she really needs Zhu Jintang by her side. He doesn't have to do anything, as long as he can be by her side quietly, she will feel content and at ease.

Shen Yuechen's series of questions made Zhu Jintang unconsciously frowned slightly.

The eyes are full of different emotions, including nostalgia, depression, disbelief, and more puzzlement.Those pair of water-cut pupils seemed to be pressing him all the time, why did he have to do this?

It was the first time for her to lose her temper with herself like this. Her eyes were full of different emotions, including helplessness, depression, and unbelievable irritability, but more of them were grievances.She looked up at him like that, with a stubborn posture, as if she was questioning him with her eyes, why, why?
Zhu Jintang didn't expect that she would be so angry and caring.

She has always been gentle and sensible, but today, it seems that she has made things too difficult for her.

Thinking of this, Zhu Jintang's eyes widened, his handsome face bent down and he approached her, with one hand lightly resting on her lower abdomen, he muttered slightly: "I'm not willing to leave you like this, but I'm the eldest son, keep you The reputation and status of the Zhu family is my responsibility."

Shen Yuechen groaned in his nose, crying like complaining: "Master, can't you just leave? Can't you let someone else do it for you?"

Her tears silently slid down her cheeks, like a sharp blade slashing across his heart.

Zhu Jintang's heart was suffocated, and he suddenly became a little flustered, kissing her forehead and the corners of her eyes, as if to appease... However, his comforting kiss did not stop Shen Yuechen's tears, but made her cry The flow became more fierce.

Zhu Jintang closed his eyes, couldn't bear to see her crying, pressed the corner of his lips lightly on her forehead, and sighed: "If I can hand it over to others, I don't have to make people sad like this. I don't feel comfortable handing over this matter." Give it to others, and you can't give it to others."

Zhu Jinlun is getting married soon, and even if he gets married, this matter cannot be entrusted to him. His attitude towards the Jia family makes people feel uneasy.Therefore, Zhu Jintang had no hope in him.

Father Zhu Feng and second uncle Zhu Jun are both old people after all, and it is not suitable for them to travel far.

As for the people under him, although they are quick to do things, they are too careful and can easily delay important things.

After much deliberation, Zhu Jintang decided that the only way he could go there himself would be the most sure way. By the way, he can see how the harvest has been over the past few years, so he can make plans for the next step.

Shen Yuechen knew very well that she couldn't convince him, and she couldn't keep him, so she bit her lips, avoided his kiss, continued to face the bed, and said in a sad tone: "In this case, I have nothing to say, If you want to go, sir, I wish you all the best and peace..."

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang sighed again, and before she finished speaking, he raised his hand and gently brushed her face, then put his other hand around her waist, forcing her to come closer In his arms, the tone was full of helplessness: "Don't be like this, I want you to promise, you must go early and return early, and you must come back before the child is born, to accompany you, to guard you..."

These were the most infatuated words he had ever said in his life.

With tears on Shen Yuechen's face, she looked at him quietly, feeling pain and anger in her heart.She doesn't want any guarantee from him, what she wants is him.

Zhu Jintang held her hand and whispered in her ear: "I will go early and return early, not for others, but for you. Wait for me, you know? Wait for me well, and have a good time with the child waiting for me."

Shen Yuechen leaned against his chest, silently wiping away tears.

Of course she had to wait for him, whether it was one day, two days, one month, two months, or even longer, she would wait for him.

In the face of parting, both of them couldn't calm down for a long time.

It was late at night, and Shen Yuechen was still unable to fall asleep. The soreness in her heart still didn't dissipate, but she felt a heavy feeling from Yuejia.

Shen Yuechen has already tasted the taste of insomnia... She gently turned over and looked at Zhu Jintang beside her, he seemed to have fallen asleep.

Shen Yuechen looked at his sleeping face, and couldn't help thinking wildly in his mind.

For more than half a year, Zhu Jinlun came back to accompany her almost every day, and shared the bed with her, except that he would occasionally sleep in the study due to busy work.

Time is a terrible thing, it can easily change a person's habits.The days passed day by day, and her habits gradually changed, most of which were about Zhu Jintang.

In the past, Shen Yuechen felt very light, and was always very sensitive to the people and things around him, and would wake up at the slightest movement.But now, with Zhu Jintang by her side, she sleeps until dawn almost every night, and sleeps soundly and securely.

Being a human being in two lifetimes, Shen Yuechen has always restrained and controlled himself well, don't trust others easily, let alone rely on others easily.But now, the deeper she is involved with the Zhu family, the more she can't help but rely on Zhu Jintang.

He is someone who can be relied on and someone who can be counted on.Shen Yuechen used to be silently happy and grateful for his good luck.

If it were a different person, then perhaps everything she had today would no longer exist.

Shen Yuechen's gaze lowered slowly, and landed on his solid shoulders. His shoulders were broad and thick, but there were too many things on them... She leaned over carefully, feeling quietly. Breathing his breath, his body temperature, she curled up slightly, like a kitten who is afraid of the cold and greedy for warmth.

Zhu Jintang was not asleep, and felt the approach of the person beside him, so he stretched out his long arms and gently held her in his arms.

Neither of them spoke anymore, they just quietly enjoyed the peace and intimacy of this moment.

Regarding his travel, the first person Zhu Jintang told was Shen Yuechen, because he was most worried about her.

This morning, Zhu Jintang took advantage of the time to pay his respects and told the elders at home.He purposely went there alone, without taking Shen Yuechen with him, she didn't sleep well last night, her eyes were still a little red.
