Daughter of General

Chapter 9
Shen Yulan reckoned that there was a serious quarrel between Shen Junzhi and Guo Shi this time, because Guo Shi didn't show up when he cleaned her up at night.It is said that the problem of heartache has happened again, so I can't come.

And even Shen Yushan didn't show up because she wanted to be by Guo's side.

For a table of dishes, only Shen Yulan, Shen Junzhi and Jin He ate.It looked so deserted.

Especially Shen Junzhi still kept his face sullen, looking unhappy.It is even more unbearable.

This is especially true of Jin He.I was so scared that I almost didn't dare to move my chopsticks. Even if I touched the chopsticks, I kept counting the rice grains, and almost didn't dare to stretch the chopsticks to pick up vegetables.

In the end, Shen Yulan couldn't stand it anymore, so he pinched Jin He's chopsticks hard to make it better.

Shen Junzhi probably also realized that his appearance frightened the two little girls, so he forced a smile to ease his expression, and persuaded bluntly: "You are just growing up, you should eat well. Eat more vegetables. "

Even, Shen Junzhi picked up some food with chopsticks for Shen Yulan.

Shen Yulan looked at the chopsticks of bitter gourd in the bowl, and suddenly sighed—Shen Junzhi's father is indeed very incompetent.He probably never knew that his daughter didn't like bitter melon, right?
However, although the original Shen Yulan didn't like it, but now he doesn't dislike it very much, so he can eat it without changing his face.

On the contrary, Jin He was stunned - Jin He was about to speak out, but Shen Yulan's eyes faded quickly, so Jin He swallowed his words.

Shen Yulan didn't want to hurt Shen Junzhi's "loving father" heart.

After the meal, Shen Junzhi kindly told Shen Yulan what he once said to Jin He: "Although your mother is gone, there is still me. You don't have to feel uncomfortable Yes, what happened in the past is what it is now. Besides, there is Yushan at home, you two are together, and you can just play together. If you lack something, just tell your wife. Or tell me , is the same."

"Yes, Niang once taught me that Erniang is the same as her. They are both my father's wife and my other mother. Thinking about it, Erniang thinks the same way, and she must treat me and sister Yushan the same way. "Of course this was not said by Mrs. Wu, but by Shen Yulan.However, Mrs. Wu is indeed a virtuous person.At least, she never said a bad word about Shen Junzhi in front of Shen Yulan.Even Guo's was never mentioned.The only sentence was before Wu's death.

Naturally, Shen Yulan didn't mind beautifying the Wu family and shaping it into an extremely virtuous image.Then use this to overwhelm Guo Shi well.

Sure enough, Shen Junzhi was immediately inexplicably moved, almost speechless.

Seeing the purpose and answering, Shen Yulan smiled secretly, and said again: "Since Erniang is not feeling well, sister He and I will go to see Erniang. Do you want to go with father?"

Shen Junzhi hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in response: "In that case, let's go together." Shen Junzhi didn't intend to bow his head to Guo Shi, but was afraid that the two little girls would be angry with Guo Shi.

Shen Junzhi and Guo Shi have been husband and wife for so many years, so they naturally understand Guo Shi's temper very well.Although Guo Shi is not a vicious person, his temper is not very good.Especially today, Mrs. Guo had a quarrel with him, and she is still angry now.

On the way, Shen Yulan took the opportunity to talk about her plan to guard Wu's spirit again.Naturally, Shen Junzhi didn't object, but just ordered: "Don't tire yourself out. Your filial piety can be felt by your mother's spirit in heaven. If she is exhausted because of this, she will be worried instead."

Shen Yulan also asked Shen Junzhi about whether the Wu family would be sent back to his hometown in the future, or whether he would just find a place for burial near the capital.

Shen Junzhi only hesitated for a moment before he came up with an idea: "Bury it here in the capital first. When I am a hundred years later, you will send us husband and wife back to the ancestral grave in our hometown and join the coffin together."

Shen Yulan glanced at Shen Jun in surprise, but saw the seriousness and sadness on Shen Jun's face.Closing coffins has been a thing since ancient times.Most couples with deep feelings will ask to be buried together in one coffin.However, the one who can join the coffin with a man can only be the first wife of the other party.It must not be a concubine or anyone else.

Only a regular wife is justifiable.

Now that Shen Junzhi said this - does it represent Shen Junzhi's heart, in fact, the real wife is still Wu's?And Guo can only rely on the back?

If this is the case, then Shen Junzhi may really have some genuine feelings for the Wu family.Moreover, there is also a conscience.

Shen Yulan responded in a low voice.

Shen Junzhi then picked up some other things and told Shen Yulan - such as going to greet Mrs. Guo in the future, and wanting to be friendly with Shen Yushan.And some rules in the house.Finally, he also said when he went out and when he came home every day.

In the end, he said: "Now you don't have anyone to serve you, so use it temporarily, and when you rest next time, I will take you to buy two little girls. I will serve you in the future."

Shen Yulan glanced at Shen Jun again—why would Shen Jun say such things?Is it because they feel that the people Guo gave to them are not useful, and they are afraid that Guo's people will not be dedicated?Or for some other reason?
But no matter which one it is, at least it proves that Shen Junzhi has put his mind on her daughter.It is indeed in the heart.

This is obviously a good thing.At least the days to come won't be too difficult.

Shen Yulan breathed a sigh of relief.

But then he thought again—after Mrs. Guo found out about this, he might feel unhappy again, right?Should she also restrain herself?After all, Guo Shi is not a good person.She is cruel and merciless, what if she gets into a hurry and kills her again?
Thinking of Wu Shi's instructions before his death, Shen Yulan hesitated even more.My heart said, don't go too far.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Yulan made up her mind - let's restrain myself first, it's time to show weakness.Otherwise, don't really make a fuss and lose your life.

When we arrived at Guo's courtyard, before Shen Junzhi went in, someone went in to report.So when Shen Yulan went in, she saw a table of food not moving, and Mrs. Guo was lying on the bed with a sleepy look.

And Shen Yushan was sitting beside her dejectedly.

However, Shen Yulan saw with sharp eyes that Shen Yushan's cheeks were swollen and kept moving.Suddenly she burst into laughter—it seemed that she interrupted his meal.

Shen Yulan pulled Jin He forward and greeted Mrs. Guo respectfully: "I heard that the old lady's heartache has happened, and Yulan was worried, so I asked my father to lead me over to have a look. Excuse me. The wife is clean."

Guo Shi forced a smile, lowered his eyelids, and said in a dry voice: "It's hard for you to have such filial piety."

Shen Yulan asked a few more questions about Guo's "illness" with concern, which was just right.After expressing what she should express, she pulled Jin He to leave: "It's getting late, we won't disturb your rest, madam."

Mrs. Guo asked the girls around her to send them out.

And Shen Junzhi stayed behind for some reason.

Shen Yulan didn't care about it either.Not to mention that she didn't care much about Shen Junzhi.As for the relationship between Shen Junzhi and Guo Shi, that's not something she should worry about.You know, Guo Shi and Shen Junzhi are also a legitimate couple.She really can't control what they want.

However, Guo's complexion softened a lot.Even Shen Yushan's tense little face was a little more smiling.

Shen Junzhi naturally saw it clearly, and he sighed in his heart at the moment.more and more unpleasant

After Shen Yulan went out, Shen Junzhi slowly opened his mouth: "Are you ready to eat?"

Shen Yushan opened the mouth first: "I just want to eat, have you eaten, Dad? Do you want to come together? Today is my favorite roast chicken."

Shen Junzhi pondered for a while: "Okay, then I will use some more with you."

Guo's complexion became better and better, and even the "old trouble" was cured without any medicine. He got out of bed and said with a smile, "I'll serve you food."

Faced with Guo's attitude, Shen Junzhi obviously didn't know what to say, he just smiled wryly - "You, when will you change your temper?"

Mrs. Guo pursed her lips, and cast a solemn look: "Isn't it the master's fault?"

Shen Junzhi frowned: "When was it my fault? Listen to what Yushan said for yourself! Those words can also be exported? Anyway, Yulan is also her sister!"

Guo didn't argue, but just sighed: "I'll take care of this matter. Yushan is still young, why did you frighten her? I've already dealt with those gossips. Yushan won't say such things in the future Yes. It’s just that you also know her temperament—she has always been like a pearl in the mansion, and she is unique. Now that there is a sudden addition of Yulan, she also has some troubles in her heart. Just let it go slowly. Why bother What about your temper?"

What else can Shen Junzhi say?I can only shake my head: "Anyway, if I hear such words again in the future, I will never forgive you lightly."

Mrs. Guo was upset, but she responded simply: "Well, I understand. Don't worry, master, there will be no such words in the future."

"My wife has always been reassuring. Now that Yulan's mother is gone, Yulan depends on you. Yulan is also a sensible child. If you treat her well, she will naturally make out with you in the future. You just Just treat her well as if I have given birth to one more child. I owe her too, don’t I? Besides, how much can the two little girls spend on food and clothing? Now Yulan is ten years old, and in a few years it will be too late. It's time to go out." Shen Junzhi looked at Guo Shi, persuading him with all his heart.

Guo's smile was not a smile: "Master, is this afraid that I will be harsh on the two children? Don't worry, master, I will not be so stingy. Speaking of it, it is also my fault. If I hadn't intervened in the past, I would have been so stingy. Master Zi and sister don't know how happy they are."

Mentioning the events of that year, Shen Junzhi frowned: "Okay, don't talk about this now. It's in front of the children. Let's eat. You have a bad stomach, don't really break your body."

Hearing a bit of concern in Shen Junzhi's tone, Guo's complexion suddenly improved a lot, and he began to eat with a smile again.

The whole family seemed to be in harmony.
