Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 357 Devotion (Part [-])

There was once such a person in Zhu Jintang's heart, but she left him before he cherished it.

He also had a wife once. Although he never had a heart-to-heart relationship, he also had a good time, but in the end, she passed away...

Born with a lonely fate, Zhu Jintang does not have any expectations for the love between men and women.However, God seemed to have played a big joke with him, and after going around for so long, he met Shen Yuechen.

According to his personality, it is impossible for a woman like Shen Yuechen who is as calm as Shen Yuechen to attract him.However, she still did it, and she grew firmly in his heart.

Zhu Jintang can't remember when he started to have a special liking for her, but he knows that he likes to see her, he cares about her every word and deed, and he also appreciates her personality that is soft on the outside and strong on the inside .

She looks weak, but in fact she is still very strong in her heart, otherwise, how could she survive alone until the end, until he comes back...

Zhu Jintang had also been to Cao's room for a while before, but it was just for a while.

For some reason, Cao's overly flattering smile unconsciously faded his desire to stay.

Their eyes contain too many complex emotions, but they are not sincere enough.The more he looked at them, the more Shen Yuechen's face appeared in his mind. Therefore, he didn't really want to ignore Cao Shi and the others, but he didn't want to follow others, and he couldn't do anything about it.

Especially at night like this, he hoped that the person beside him would be Shen Yuechen, not others.Even if you can't be lingering, you can cuddle up to each other.

Shen Yuechen felt his heart fluctuate because of what he said in his heart, as if countless warm currents poured into his chest in an instant, sweet and warm.

She couldn't say a word now, she just raised her head slightly, and kissed him lightly on the forehead, without any lust, only tender gratitude.

Looking at him at this moment, Shen Yuechen's heart was filled with gratitude, thanking him for being able to leave her a heart after going through so many things.

"You are very kind to Yuechen, and Yuechen is extremely grateful. It is God who gave me the best and greatest blessing to meet you."

"This is also our blessing." Zhu Jintang's originally slightly drunk and blurred eyes gradually became clear and focused.Thinking of the pain he had suffered before, and the hardships the two of them had experienced before, he was even more determined to cherish her, protect her, and never let anyone or anything disrupt their stable happiness!

Shen Yuechen approached him, put his arms lightly on his waist, put his face on his chest, listened to his strong heartbeat, and counted quietly: "One time, two times, three times, four times..."

Hearing the sound, Zhu Jintang smiled slightly and said, "Why do you always like to count my heartbeats?"

Shen Yuechen counted a few more times before saying: "Because I feel very at ease. Because I have you by my side, I feel at ease."

She is a person who has died once, so, for her, the most beautiful sound in the world is not the silk and bamboo musical instruments, but the sound of a living heartbeat, which is like the sound of drums, gently hitting her eardrums, and gently Beating her heart.

Zhu Jintang pressed his chin lightly against hers, and said, "I will always be by your side."

Shen Yuechen responded: "I will always be by Uncle's side, no matter where I go, I will go wherever you go."

Zhu Jintang rubbed her hair lightly, feeling that she was really smart.

He obviously didn't say anything, but she seemed to have noticed something.

Shen Yuechen was silent for a while, and then said again: "Although as the main wife, I shouldn't say such things, but I have always wanted to find a place for the Cao family to retire and settle down... If the uncle really doesn't care about them... Nostalgia, then maybe they shouldn't continue to stay..."

Because of hearing Zhu Jintang's sincere words, Shen Yuechen had the courage to speak out his heart.

Zhu Jintang didn't chew, and waited for her to finish speaking.

"He's heart reminded the concubine that all the women in the inner courtyard have a fierce side. Thinking about the previous Aunt Qin, there was such a time when she was obsessed with ghosts. Although it was only for a short time, it was forged I made a big mistake. As a woman, I understand how crazy and agitated a woman will be once she falls into a sea of ​​jealousy, and she will only think about revenge, revenge, and revenge..."

Zhu Jintang's eyes darkened slightly, it turned out that she was worried about these, the moss hidden in the dark corners.

"You are the hostess, and you should be the one to decide what happens in the yard. If you think they are an eyesore, I can just let them go."

The concubine in ancient times was the most statusless existence. Their status was almost in the middle of the servant and the master. They were neither regarded as serious masters, nor could they get rid of their humble status as slaves.

Divorce of a wife requires a divorce certificate, but divorce of a concubine does not require anything.There are many rich families who will sell their unfavored concubines, just like selling cheap goods, regardless of the life and death of the parties involved.

There are also people who were sold by relatives to become concubines of wealthy families because of lack of money at home, and signed a contract of sale.

If there is a time limit written in the contract of sale, then when the time limit expires, they can collect money to redeem themselves, then leave the house, marry someone else, and get rid of the tragic fate of being a concubine.

The Cao family, the Liu family, and the Wang family were all sent to the Zhu family after signing the deeds of sale, but their deeds of sale were all death contracts, and they could not redeem themselves for the rest of their lives.But now, Shen Yuechen wanted to make a fuss about these deeds of sale, turn the deeds of death into deeds of living, and give them a chance to leave the Zhu family.

But for this matter, Zhu Jintang must nod first. As long as he can agree, then the elders will be able to handle it more easily.

Zhu Jintang thought for a while and said, "What do you want to do?"

Shen Yuechen said quietly: "Neither the Liu family nor the Wang family have given birth, so they can be released directly from the mansion. However, the Cao family is Zhu Ying's biological mother, so it may not be appropriate to release them."

Both the Liu family and the Wang family have never given birth, and there is no chance to have another child in the future, so it is undoubtedly cruel to keep them.

The taste of being alone in an empty room is not good, not to mention that it is not a year or two, it may be a longer, longer time.

Zhu Jintang pondered for a while and said: "You want to let them all go out of the house, but they may not be willing to leave. However, as long as it is your wish, I am willing to agree. As I said before, I only need you. "

Shen Yuechen had never asked him for anything, this should be considered the first time.

The long room has three children to take care of, and is about to welcome a fourth child.Zhu Ying and Brother Ming have just started to understand, Zhu Xiao is a toddler, and Brother Xuan is less than one year old, which is the weakest time.These children are all his children, and they are also the children of the long house.

According to Shen Yuechen's personality, she would want to take good care of every child, especially brother Xuan who was still in her infancy, that was the child she gave birth with half her life, and she cared about him most.

The tedious housework, and four children to take care of, want to cope with it freely, it is not a small problem for anyone.

Shen Yuechen sighed: "It's not that the concubine is intolerant, it's just..."

Zhu Jintang patted her on the back and said, "You don't need to explain anything, I understand."

The matter of the He family not only woke up Shen Yuechen, but also woke up the entire Zhu family.

Some things, some people, always have to guard against.

Because of Zhu Jintang's understanding and arms, Shen Yuechen slept soundly that night.

Early the next morning, Shen Yuechen sent the children to the old lady with the excuse of saying hello.

When the old lady saw that the children had come, she couldn't help but smiled and said, "Oh, it's quite complete today."

Shen Yuechen also smiled and said: "I come here at night every day. The children are sleepy and always love to sleep, so I can't chat and laugh with you. So, I brought them here early this morning."

The old lady picked up Brother Ming's small face and kissed it, then stroked Zhu Ying's braided braid, and said with satisfaction: "Well done, with their support, we old couple don't have to start getting sleepy as soon as we are full. .Yuechen, just let the children go, go back and hide.”

Shen Yuechen replied with a smile: "Yes, Yuechen has that intention."

In fact, she didn't want to be lazy, she just wanted to send all the children there, and then bring Mrs. Cao and the others to talk.

There are too many children, walking around inside and out, it is not convenient to say a lot of things, and it is not convenient to do many things.

When the maid came to deliver the message, Mrs. Cao was sitting in front of the vanity mirror, staring at her empty jewelry box in a daze.

It's only been a few months, and she is about to lose all the wealth she has accumulated in the past few years.

The maids around her also advised her not to hang out with those wives anymore, but she couldn't control herself, always thinking that she would be able to get her money back next time, so she just took out the vain money to lose , You don’t know regret until you lose.

There is no high or low gambling table, only winning or losing has the final say.Although Mrs. Cao is an aunt, she has status when she gets together with those women, but it is not easy to repay when she loses money.

Those people's mouths became stronger and stronger one by one. Just saying a few sarcastic remarks about her was enough to make Mrs. Cao feel uncomfortable.Therefore, she would rather lose as much as she could, rather than let them speak ill of her behind her back.

Previously, she carried the money and oil saved by Shen Yuechen on her back, and now she was almost lost, only a few golden hairpins were left, which were still worth a fortune.However, this is also one of the few pieces of jewelry she has.

At this time, when she heard that Grandma was going to see her, Cao Shi was slightly taken aback, and then became a little nervous.

Grandma hadn't thought of her for a long time, and she even skipped the usual greetings, as if she was very busy.Why are you suddenly interested today?Did he know about her gambling?
