Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 4 Meeting the Guest
The luxuriously dressed old lady Shen sat peacefully beside the bed, accepted her gift with a smile, and said lightly, "You're here."

Shen Yuechen immediately stood up and turned to the second master Shen Zhijian and his first wife Xiao Shi. "Moon Chen pays respects to Second Uncle."

"Moon Chen pays my respects to Second Aunt."

Shen Zhijian nodded indifferently, and slowly sipped tea from the teacup without even moving his eyelids.Xiao Shi next to her was smiling, and she pretended to call "Chen'er" affectionately, so that Shen Yuechen almost didn't realize that she was calling herself.

Xiao Shi had just finished speaking, and the two girls, one big and one small, surrounded by the old lady also got up to salute, and smiled at Shen Yuechen and called her sister at the same time.

The big girl with willow eyebrows and almond eyes has very gorgeous facial features, and her body, hands, and clothes are all exquisite.She is Shen Yuechang, the eldest daughter of the second wife, Xiao Shi. She is fourteen years old and only one year younger than Shen Yuechen.And the little one, with a peach blossom face, slender eyebrows and eyes, is actually not as good-looking as her elder sister Shen Yuechang in terms of facial features, but she is better than her fair skin, and looks like a white jade doll.She is Xiao's second daughter, her boudoir name is Shen Yueqiu, she is twelve years old.

Shen Yuechen was slightly taken aback when she saw these two cousins, who were always arrogant, greet her so kindly, and felt that the sun must be coming out from the west today.However, her reaction was also quick, and she hastily returned a half salute, and said softly: "You two sisters are polite."

Old Madam Shen saw that she and her family had met the ceremony, so she introduced her to the second wife of the Zhu family, Mrs. Chai, and said with a smile: "Second Madam, this is the few pieces that my eldest granddaughter Shen Yuechen gave to the old lady last time. All the hand-copied scriptures were written by this child. Yuechen, why don’t you hurry up and pay your respects to the second wife of the Zhu family.”

Ever since Shen Yuechen entered the door, the second wife of the Zhu family, Mrs. Chai, had already silently and carefully sized her up. Now, seeing her approaching slowly with her head down, bowing her knees to say hello, she sized her up again. , just smiled and said: "Well, what a beautiful and refined person."

As the saying goes, words are like people, and seeing words is like seeing people.Just seeing Shen Yuechen's good handwriting before, I have a good impression of her in my heart.Saw it today, and it did not disappoint.

At a young age, she has a delicate appearance, plain clothes, and elegant demeanor. She has a fresh breath all over her body, which makes people look very comfortable, especially her black and crystal-clear eyes like black jade. A serenity that belied her age.

"Miss Yuechen's handwriting is so good that my old lady praises it very much. The old lady keeps that volume of "Ksitigarbha Sutra" by her side all the time, and she takes it out every day to read a few pages."

The second wife, Mrs. Chai, was not stingy with her praise. Shen Yuechen still had a calm expression when he heard the words, and said with a low eyebrow, "Second Mistress has won the award. Thanks to the fact that Second Mistress and the old lady did not dislike her, Yuechen is very grateful."

The second wife, Chai, smiled and helped Shen Yuechen up, held her hand affectionately, and patted her lightly.

Shen Yuechen's brows twitched slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at the person who came, and what caught her eyes was a pair of luxurious phoenix eyes.This woman has a plump body, a face like a full moon, a smile on the corner of her mouth, pure eyes, and no contempt in her demeanor, like an approachable person.

The Zhu family has been in business for generations, and their family has a big business. They are quite famous in Dezhou. The two wives of the Zhu family are also from wealthy families in the capital.
