Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 367 Trust ([-])

Shen Yuechen had already run out of patience with Cao Shi, and she didn't want to entangle with her any longer.

She has almost said everything that should be said and should not be said.If it goes on, it's just a waste of effort and useless.

Cao's disturbance was indeed not small.The old lady was a little surprised when the news was quickly heard from the upper room.

Although the Cao family is not favored, she is Zhu Ying's biological mother. It is said that she is usually in the Zhu family, and her status is higher than that of ordinary aunts.However, because she has not been favored all the time and her family background is too low, people rarely mention her in front of the old lady.

When the old lady heard Cao's name, the first reaction in her mind was her plain, honest face.Except for giving birth to Sister Ying, Mrs. Cao has done almost nothing satisfactory, and her personality is not very pleasing.

"Then Aunt Cao made a big fuss in the yard. Grandma will send someone to escort her here, saying that she is inconvenient, and let the old slave handle it... Grandma's doing this is really flattering her old body, so I would also like to ask the old lady to give the servants an idea."

Undoubtedly, Shen Yuechen's purpose of doing this couldn't be more obvious.Because Cao's status is a bit special, how to punish her is not something that can be decided casually.

After the old lady heard this, she immediately frowned in displeasure, "What's the matter with these concubines in the west courtyard? Why are they all making trouble?"

Nanny Yang said what was in her heart: "Maybe it's because Grandma is too impatient."

Hearing this, the old lady looked up at her and said, "Why? You also think she didn't do well in this matter."

Nanny Yang shook her head: "I am just a slave, how can I have the right to say that my master is wrong. I just feel a little surprised, a little puzzled..."

To be honest, Shen Yuechen's cruelty to his aunts this time is really not in line with her usual personality.

She has always been general and doesn't like to be jealous, and now she is firmly tied to the young master's heart, so why should she care about those unfavorable aunts?
Nanny Yang subconsciously felt that she had a reason for doing this, but she really couldn't think of the reason.

The old lady sighed softly and said, "This child really created a problem for others. Our Zhu family has always bought people in, why has it ever sold people?"

When Nanny Yang heard the words, she knew what she wanted to say.

The old lady didn't care much about the Cao family, she just felt that if she really wanted to sell the Cao family, it would be a bit embarrassing for the Zhu family.

Nanny Yang thought for a while and said, "Why don't I go over and ask Grandma what she means."

The old lady looked at her and said: "The child threw this problem to you, and if you throw it back to her, wouldn't it make her worry?"

Nanny Yang smiled slightly: "Don't you know the character of the eldest grandma? She won't."

Hearing this, the old lady gave her a meaningful look.

"According to what you said, it seems that she doesn't feel awkward at all what she did today."

Yang Nanny lowered her eyes and said: "Returning to the old lady, the old lady actually feels awkward. Cao Shi is usually neglected, and even if she stays, she can't cause any big disturbances. However, she made such a fuss today, and the eldest grandma's eyes There is bound to be no room for her."

The old lady pondered for a moment before saying: "Okay. Go over and see what you can do to help. She is a healthy person after all, so don't delay too late, let alone waste your energy, and then affect the child. "

Nanny Yang took the words and left, and on the way, she met Chun Ming who was escorting Mrs. Cao.

When Chun Ming saw Nanny Yang, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Say hello to Nanny. Why did you come here in person? The little ones are preparing to take Aunt Cao there in person."

Nanny Yang glanced at Mrs. Cao, who was in a state of distress and had gloomy eyes, and said calmly: "The old man and the old lady have both fallen asleep, so don't disturb them. Let's go back to the west courtyard."

Chunming was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, before she replied, "That's fine, then let's do it according to Mammy's wishes."

At the same time, in the west courtyard, Brother Xuan and Brother Ming had already fallen asleep, sleeping soundly.

Zhu Jintang lay on his side next to the two children, closed his eyes and rested his mind, although he was exhausted, he did not feel sleepy.

Zhu Xiaowo was also drowsy in her mother-in-law's arms, Zhu Ying was the only one who was still sobbing softly.

She was terribly frightened just now, and Wu Ma comforted her for a while, but she still couldn't stop her tears.

Wu Ma patted her on the back lightly, and said softly: "Sister Ying is a big girl, she should be sensible now. No matter what you heard or saw just now, you should know in your heart how much grandma is. I love you and care about you. So, you have to be obedient, don't mess around and make grandma angry and sad. To be a human being, you must know how to be grateful."

Zhu Ying nodded her head in a daze when she heard the words, feeling in a trance for a moment.

Of course she knew that her mother loved her, but she also knew that Shen Yuechen was not her real mother...

After Shen Yuechen came back, the first person he met was not Zhu Jintang, but Zhu Ying.

Seeing her red eyes from crying, Shen Yuechen's heart tightened, a little helpless, a little distressed.

Shen Yuechen calmed down, smiled at her and waved: "Ying'er, come here."

Normally, Zhu Ying would run to her without thinking, but today's situation is different.

Zhu Ying raised her tear-stained face, looked at Shen Yuechen timidly, hesitated for a moment, then jumped from Wu Ma's arms to the ground, and walked slowly over.

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen couldn't help feeling a little sour and uncomfortable.

She had never been so afraid of herself, and this was the first time.

Shen Yuechen was still smiling, and said in a gentle tone: "Sister Ying, come here and let mother hug you."

After hearing this, Zhu Ying's eyes flickered, and then she threw herself into Shen Yuechen's arms without any hesitation.

The moment Shen Yuechen hugged her, he couldn't help but sighed softly.

She is still so young, so immature, she should live a carefree and unrestrained life, and should not be worried about the right and wrong between adults...

Hearing her sigh, Zhu Ying stretched out her small hand subconsciously, hugged her back, and murmured, "What's wrong with Auntie?"

After she asked this question, she felt a little scared in her heart, for fear that Shen Yuechen would get angry.

"Your aunt, she did something she shouldn't do and said something she shouldn't say."

Zhu Ying lightly grabbed Shen Yuechen's sleeve, and asked uneasily, "Mother, don't be angry, Ying'er took Auntie to accompany you."

Hearing this, Shen Yuechen hugged her even tighter, and said: "Wrong is wrong. Everyone who does something wrong must be punished accordingly and pay a corresponding price."

Zhu Ying sniffed and said, "Mother, can't you forgive her once? In the past, Ying'er did something wrong. Didn't mother forgive Ying'er?"

Shen Yuechen shook her head slightly: "She has made too many mistakes, mother can't forgive her."

She wrapped Zhu Ying in her arms, coaxing and persuading her in a low voice, her tone as soft as a feather.

"Ying'er, although Aunt Cao gave birth to you, she is different from you. You are the master, and she is a slave. The slave must be punished for making mistakes. If you pamper her this time, there will be another time. So , Mother had no choice but to let her leave, leave the Zhu family, and leave you too."

Zhu Ying heard it clearly, and the tears in her eyes couldn't stop falling, she didn't know how to plead for her aunt, she thought for a while, she could only bite her lower lip, choked up and said, "My aunt is actually very pitiful... Mother...can she not go?"

Shen Yuechen patted her on the back and said earnestly: "Poor people must have something to hate. Mrs. Cao must leave. This is all her own fault, and she should bear it alone. You are still young, wait for you to grow up After that, you will understand that mother's decision today is a good thing for you, me, and the Zhu family. No matter what, you have to know that no matter what Aunt Cao does, mother's love for you will never be Change, mother will still treat you as before, and raise you up to adulthood with all your heart."

No matter how much Shen Yuechen regards Zhu Ying as her own, it still cannot conceal her identity as a concubine.

If you want to find a good marriage and a good way out for her future, it is not an easy task.

Zhu Ying half-understood, weeping silently.

Shen Yuechen still stretched out his hand to caress her back gently, unwilling to let her go for a long time.

After a while, Zhu Ying finally stopped crying, Shen Yuechen looked at her with pity, then kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said: "Today's incident really made you feel wronged, you won't resent Mommy."

Her tone was slightly emotional, after all, children's hearts are the most fragile.

Zhu Ying lowered her head, then raised it again, shook her head at her and said, "No... Mama Wu said that everything mother does is for Ying'er's good, so Ying'er must be sensible and obedient, even if Sad, sad but also obedient..."

Seeing her like this, Shen Yuechen couldn't help but sighed softly again, held her in his arms and coaxed her for a while, then handed her over to Mama Wu, and said: "Mom should sleep with her tonight, she cried For so long, I worry that she will have bad dreams at night."

Wu Ma nodded and said: "Miss, don't worry, you can go back and see the uncle, he has been waiting for you."

Shen Yuechen knew it well, seeing Wu Ma carrying Zhu Ying down and arranging her makeup a bit, she walked towards the main room.

It was getting late, and the food on the table was cold and then hot, hot and cold again, but no one had touched it.

Zhu Jintang looked at the sleeping faces of the children, quietly lost in thought, and had already forgotten about the meal.

Shen Yuechen patted his shoulder lightly, and only after he turned around did he ask, "Why didn't you eat, sir?"

Zhu Jintang said lightly: "I'm waiting for you."

Originally, the two wanted to have a nice dinner together, but it was a pity that Cao's made such a fuss, and neither of them had any appetite.

"There are too many things tonight, it's a bit messy, I don't want to eat anything."

Zhu Jintang came to the outside room with her and sat down, saying: "Since you have already made up your mind, why bother to be angry with her, what you should eat and drink should be for the sake of the child in your stomach."

Shen Yuechen lowered her eyes slightly, and after a moment of silence, said: "Master, why didn't you ask me how I made the decision on Cao?"

Zhu Jintang poured himself a cup of tea, "The affairs of the inner courtyard are all up to you. I don't need to ask anything, because I trust you."
