Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 54 Difficulties (2)

Brother Ming in his swaddling baby was hugged and hugged, kissed and kissed like stars holding the moon, so tired.

The old man looked greedy, waved his hand disapprovingly, and said in a flat tone: "The child is tired from tossing about you, hurry up and let the wet nurses carry it down."

The old lady seemed reluctant, Shen Yuechen took the initiative to take the child into her arms, patted the child a few times and said: "My wife will send Brother Ming down first."

The old lady nodded, and the old man next to her looked at Shen Yuechen's slender back, but said again: "This granddaughter-in-law is not bad, but her body seems too thin, and she usually wants to greet her and take care of Brother Ming, what do you do?" Elders need more body."

The old man likes to study women the most in his life, so he knows that although slim women are beautiful, they can't bear children.A woman who can bear children must have a plump figure... At the beginning, the Qin family was also so graceful and graceful. As a result, when Brother Ming was born, he was only about the size of a cat. Now even if he is so meticulously raised It is also weak and weak.

When the old lady heard the words, she suddenly felt unhappy. "My lord, what you said seems like we're using her on purpose. It's a family rule, and it's her duty to take care of Brother Ming. If you avoid these things, wouldn't it be a waste of time for her to take care of her?" The status of the wife, do nothing, let the servants gossip behind their backs?"

The old man knew that what his wife said was somewhat reasonable, but he added another sentence: the superficial meaning is meaningless, and it's okay to be flexible occasionally in small matters. "

When the old lady heard the words, the smile on her face disappeared immediately: "How can it be a trivial matter? Is the master deliberately arranging the concubine's body? I feel that the concubine has not treated this family well, is too harsh, and is unkind." ?”

The old man saw her start to be so aggressive, turned his head and snorted softly: "Speaking well, why did I arrange you. It's boring, boring, really boring!"

The old man got up and wanted to leave, but Zhu Feng rushed to meet him, and said with a smile, "Where are you going, father? Dinner is useless."

Although the old man was a little angry in his heart, his expression was quite calm, he waved his hand and said, "It's fine if you don't eat it, or you don't eat it."

The old couple got angry once or twice, Zhu Feng held his father's arm and comforted him: "Okay, father, let's not talk about this, how about letting the son accompany you to have a glass of wine and listen to the music?"

After listening to his son's arrangement, the old man dissipated a lot of anger, sat down and reminded: "Go and get that bottle of Fenjiu, let us have a good drink."

Zhu Feng repeatedly agreed, and Zhu Jun and Zhu Jintang also agreed.

Unexpectedly, someone outside the curtain suddenly said loudly: "Tasting wine and listening to music, how can such a beautiful thing be done without me?"

Zhu Jinlun stepped in, with a smile still on his face, looking refreshed.

Zhu Jinlun is talkative and funny, and in a few words, he coaxed the two old people into smiling eyes, forgetting the little quarrel just now.

After Shen Yuechen settled Brother Ming, he entered the room, and heard a burst of laughter.

Zhu Jinlun seemed to be telling a joke, causing everyone in the room to laugh, and the old lady even said "Oh hello", lightly slapped her grandson on the shoulder, covered her mouth and said in a reproachful way: "You Monkey spirit, where did you hear so many nonsense?"

Although Shen Yuechen couldn't hear clearly, she entered the room with a smile on her face.

Seeing her coming, Zhu Jinlun hurriedly got up and saluted, "Greetings to sister-in-law."

Shen Yuechen accepted it with a smile, and gave a half-respect slowly.

Li Shi looked at her and asked: "Brother Ming fell asleep?"

Shen Yuechen nodded: "The nurse fell asleep after feeding him."

The old lady then smiled and said: "I just talked for a long time, and I have delayed dinner, tell the kitchen to serve dinner." Then, she glanced at Li Shi, "The old man is going to take you to the Changchun Garden for a drink, let's go together Let's eat here!"

Shen Yuechen smiled when she heard the words, bowed her head silently, and laughed with her mother-in-law and sent the men out of the house.

Although the whole family did not eat together, the old lady still sent someone to deliver the best dishes to Changchun Garden.

The female relatives of the big mansion always eat very little dinner, so as not to feel uncomfortable due to food accumulation.But during the banquet, the old lady kept trying to make Shen Yuechen eat more.

Shen Yuechen's appetite was limited, and he couldn't bear to take away the old lady's kindness, so he had to bite the bullet and eat it.

After the meal, the old lady didn't let the daughters-in-law go back early, "The men are all drinking, and they won't be able to come back for an hour or two."

Shen Yuechen was holding the tea bowl, feeling uncomfortable in her stomach, she really wanted to get up and walk, but the old lady still had something to say.

The old lady asked gently: "Yuechen, you have worked hard to help take care of Brother Ming these few days, but your body can still bear it?"

Shen Yuechen put down the tea bowl, and said, "Compared to the hard work of the elders, the hard work of this concubine is really not worth mentioning. Everything is fine, please trouble the old lady to think about it."

The old lady raised her hand: "Don't just salute, just sit and talk."

"It's a good thing for you to get close to Brother Ming. However, you must also take care of your own body. Now, all of our Zhu family, the hope in our hearts is that you can conceive a child as soon as possible."

When Shen Yuechen heard the words, the tea bowl in his hand shook slightly, and his mind suddenly tightened.

Seeing her drooping her head in silence, Li continued: "Your body seems too thin. When Master Hu enters the mansion again, let him take a good look at you and draw up a prescription for recuperation."

Shen Yuechen's heart sank when he heard the words, there was a buzzing sound in his head, and the teacup in his hand almost fell off.However, she held on, forced a smile on her face, walked slowly to the old lady, saluted and said: "I thank the old lady, the lady loves me very much."

She knew her body well, if something good or bad were to be diagnosed by Mr. Hu, there would be endless troubles.

Li Shi saw her get up again to thank her, and said: "Didn't the old lady just say that? You have to be obedient to let you sit down and answer."

Shen Yuechen's face turned slightly pale, Chun Ming had sharp eyes and quick hands, and hurriedly helped her silently, but didn't want to touch the cold sweat in her palm, so he shook her hand hard with his hand, signaling to cheer her up.

Seeing that her expression was different, the old lady couldn't help but asked with concern: "What's the matter? I see that your complexion is not very good?"

Shen Yuechen looked up at the old lady, with an unnatural smile, and said: "I am afraid, I wonder if I can live up to the expectations of the old lady and the Zhu family..."

When the old lady heard the words, she smiled broadly, knowing that she was under a lot of pressure, and said: "We are all looking forward to having an heir, and you should feel pressure. However, it's useless to think too much, you don't need to be so cautious, As long as you concentrate on recuperating your body, keeping yourself safe, and abiding by women’s morals, you’ll be fine. As for other things, let’s leave it to God to arrange.”

After the gossip, Shen Yuechen led Chun Ming back to the west courtyard first. She was preoccupied along the way, and when she walked through the door, she almost stumbled and fell. Fortunately, Chun Ming was beside her with sharp eyes and hands to support her quickly.

"Miss, be careful, step carefully."

Perhaps, due to walking too fast, sweat was already protruding from Shen Yuechen's forehead, and his face was a little haggard.

Chunming had been serving Shen Yuechen for some time, but it was the first time she saw her, looking so flustered, she asked anxiously, "Miss, are you alright?"

Shen Yuechen was indeed a little panicked, when he was in the main courtyard just now, his palms were already in a cold sweat.She shook her head, walked straight into the house, and softly ordered Chunming: "Go and call Wu Ma, and let everyone else go to dinner."

Wu Ma was doing needlework with the maids, when she heard the movement outside, she hurriedly got up and walked to the door to check.

Chun Ming came in just in time, leaned close to her ear and whispered something to her in a low voice, Wu Ma's expression froze, and she hurried to the room.

Mingxin saw it from a distance, thought something happened, and hurriedly went up to ask.Unexpectedly, Chunming turned her head and smiled: "Sisters, the eldest and youngest mistress let us have dinner first, so as not to wait for the uncle to come back later and need someone to take care of him."

Ming Xin gave a dubious "Oh", rolled his eyes on Chun Ming's face, and followed them to the kitchen for dinner.

Whether Mingyue will be here or not, naturally Chun Ming has to decide.

Wu Ma knew that with Shen Yuechen's forbearing and calm personality, unless she encountered extremely difficult things, she would never frown and look sad like now.Thinking back to the beginning, from Jingyue Temple to Shen's family, she had suffered so many grievances and embarrassments, but she never complained at all, she was so sensible that people were moved and distressed.

Seeing the look on her face, Mama Wu couldn't bear it, and said, "Miss, although Master Hu is an imperial physician, he may not be able to see the hidden illness on your body..."

Shen Yuechen is not a native of this era, and knows little about Chinese medicine, but she still remembers clearly what the old doctor in the Shen family said before.

Even though Mrs. Hu is not a genius doctor alive, as long as she is diagnosed with a cold constitution and said that she is not suitable for pregnancy, then her situation will be very bad... Women in ancient times were proud of their husbands and their children. Gui, a barren woman is like a useless person.Since she came in as the second wife, the most important task is to spread the branches and leaves for the Zhu family. If Mrs. Zhu finds out that the granddaughter-in-law she has carefully selected is actually a barren woman, she must faint from anger. Moreover, Not only her, everyone in the Zhu family regarded her as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh.And the Shen family, who deliberately concealed the inside story in order to curry favor with the rich and powerful, would inevitably suffer along with it... The more Shen Yuechen thought about it, the more headaches became, since he was already in danger, why was he still thinking about what the Shen family was doing?In the future, if something bad happened, the Shen family would definitely abandon her.A broom star daughter who has no use value is nothing more than being expelled from the house again.

Shen Yuechen sighed softly, thinking of this, but she doesn't feel sad, human nature is so cold, seeing a lot, her heart becomes numb.

Just as Shen Yuechen was deep in thought, the door was pushed open, but it was Zhu Jintang who came back.
