Chapter 601 The Shen brothers finally stopped pretending
Chapter 601 The Shen brothers finally stopped pretending
Shen Bijun rode her horse forward. Although she knew Lian Chengbi must be nearby, she couldn't help feeling nervous.
This was her first time facing the enemy alone in the open, and she was also tasked with not revealing any flaws and luring out the mysterious young master, so she felt a lot of pressure.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Shen Tianzhu and Shen Tianju beside her, feeling secretly resentful.
They actually used Old Madam Shen's health problems to trick her out, and they wanted to use her to deal with Lian Chengbi. They are so mean!
Shen Bijun endured it again and again, but she could not bear it any longer and asked Shen Tianzhu, "Is grandma really going to die soon? What did Doctor Wang say?"
Shen Tianzhu immediately replied, "The old lady must have contracted typhoid fever, and her old injuries relapsed, so she fell into a coma at the time. Although she woke up later, she has been bedridden ever since."
Shen Tianju said, "Although Divine Doctor Wang prescribed several prescriptions for the old lady, she is old after all. Her vitality is seriously damaged, and it is difficult to cure her. Her spirit is obviously declining."
Shen Tianzhu said, "Maybe the old lady herself felt it, so she asked us to come to Jiangnan to find you. Maybe she also wanted to see you for the last time."
Shen Bijun gritted her teeth. If it weren't for the unbreakable trust she had built with Lian Chengbi, she would have almost believed it at this moment. But even so, she couldn't help but feel a little shaken.
After all, Shen Tianzhu and Shen Tianju are also members of the Shen family. Shen Bijun really doesn't want to believe that they would collude with outsiders to deceive her.
How did Tianzong make them betray their families and relatives?
Could it be that Lian Chengbi made a wrong judgment?
Shen Bijun sighed quietly. She had been married to Lian Chengbi for a year, and Lian Chengbi had never missed a thing!
The three men rode their horses at a rapid speed, and soon a forest appeared in front of them. At the entrance of the forest, there were three or five small houses, and outside there were several seats. On one of the seats, sat a young man who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, with two gray-clothed attendants.
The young man was dressed in brocade and had a ruddy face. He looked like he came from a wealthy family.
Apart from them, there seemed to be only a gray-haired, red-nosed old man who was the owner of the shop. He was fiddling with the steamer and tending the stove, with smoke rising into the sky.
Seeing the shop, Shen Tianzhu suddenly said, "Bijun, it's past noon now. The next town is still a long way away. Let's fill our stomachs here first."
Shen Bijun's heart skipped a beat, and the words Lian Chengbi said to her last night echoed in her mind again.
"No need." Shen Bijun shook her head, reached into the bag behind the horse, and took out two pancakes with dried meat on them. She waved and threw them to Shen Tianzhu and Shen Tianju.
"Grandma is seriously ill, so it would be better for us to go home early. I asked the kitchen to prepare some dry food for the journey. We only need to replenish our food when we arrive in town every night to avoid any accidents along the way." Shen Bijun stared at Shen Tianzhu and said seriously.
Shen Tianzhu couldn't help but stand there in a daze. Logically speaking, as brothers, they had rich experience in the martial arts world, shouldn't they be the ones who arranged the food and accommodation along the way?
Shen Tianju responded quickly, "That's great, but I see the boss sells loose wine, I'll buy some to take away and drink on the way."
Shen Bijun's eyes jumped and turned to Shen Tianju, "Drinking while riding a horse can easily lead to accidents. How about you, Fourth Brother, hold back and drink when you get to town tonight?"
Shen Tianju smiled bitterly and said, "Bijun, you also know that I like wine the most. I won't cause any trouble if I don't buy too much."
Shen Bijun's heart beat faster and faster, knowing that there must be something wrong with this shop.
But she changed her mind and said, "It's good this way. We have only been out of Wuque Villa for half a day and haven't walked far. My husband can't ride a horse to chase me. He can only use Qinggong to chase me in the woods. It's too tiring."
So Shen Bijun stopped objecting and said, "In that case, let's rest here for a while." "Okay, okay!" Shen Tianju nodded repeatedly, and then immediately said, "It doesn't take too long, just rest for a while, we have to hurry on."
Shen Bijun forced a smile, "It's okay, I was just too anxious. We are fast, so there is no need to worry about this moment."
Facing Shen Tianzhu and Shen Tianju, who are also members of the Shen family, Shen Bijun felt pain in her heart and her expression was unnatural.
But the two did not notice it and thought that Shen Bijun was just too worried about the old lady.
Looking at Shen Bijun's melancholy face, Shen Tianzhu felt a little soft-hearted for a moment, his cheeks twitched, and he wanted to say something but stopped. Then Shen Tianju hit him in the lower back with her elbow.
"Since we have to rest here for a while, I'll order some side dishes." Shen Tianju said with a smile, then turned to the boss, "If there are any braised dishes or meats, just serve some."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Upon hearing this, the old man hurriedly lifted the lid of the pot next to him, scooped a bowl of braised meat from the pot, and filled three bowls of hot chicken soup, then slowly brought them over.
"This road has been remote and deserted for more than ten miles. Many people going in or coming out of this road will stop by my place to stop and have a meal." The old man said with a smile.
Shen Tianju looked at the food in front of her and called Shen Tianzhu and Shen Bijun, "It's cold, have a bowl of soup before you go."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Tianju drank the chicken soup in front of him.
Shen Tianzhu swallowed his saliva and sat opposite Shen Tianju, eating pancakes and braised meat, taking a sip of soup from time to time.
"We passed by here when we came from the north. The chicken soup cooked by the boss is very good. You should come and have a bowl of soup to warm yourself up before you leave." Shen Tianzhu said to Shen Bijun.
Shen Bijun stared at the last bowl of hot soup on the table, her face turning a little pale in the cold wind.
"Bijun?" Shen Tianzhu asked tentatively.
Shen Bijun shook her head, first looked up at the woods on both sides, then looked at the two people in front of her, and then slowly walked to the table and sat down.
But she still didn't touch the chicken soup in front of her, and just said, "No need, I'm not cold, you guys eat it."
Shen Tianzhu's face changed, but Shen Tianju laughed heartily, "I didn't expect Bijun to be so vigilant. I remember you were not like this before, but what experience did your uncle teach you?"
Shen Bijun felt a little sad and couldn't help but sigh.
Shen Tianju continued with a smile, "My son-in-law is the famous Master Wuque, the best swordsman in the world, but his martial arts skills are only enough to protect himself, and his experience in the martial arts world may not be as rich as our brothers."
Shen Tianzhu added, "The braised meat is mellow and the chicken soup is rich. It must be a master craftsman who has been immersed in this for a long time."
Shen Bijun didn't comment, and continued quietly, "Second... Second brother, there's no need to persuade me anymore. I said I don't want to drink, and that means I don't want to drink."
"Okay, okay! I don't want to drink!"
Shen Tianzhu smiled awkwardly and lowered his head to drink the soup.
Shen Tianju was also drinking soup. When she raised her eyes, their eyes met and she immediately understood.
The next moment, the two men put down their soup bowls and attacked at the same time!
