Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 5 Cousin's Provocation

The second wife, Mrs. Chai, turned her head to Old Mrs. Shen, and said meaningfully: "I heard that your eldest daughter has been bound by Buddhism since she was a child. She often copies scriptures to pray for her family. Such filial piety is really rare."

When the old lady heard the words, the unnatural expression on her face was fleeting, she smiled and said: "The children can be so filial, and I will be considered blessed when I grow old. Yuechen's mother left early, and she was weak since she was a child. I often live in a Buddhist temple to recuperate, and now I have finally grown into a big girl, and my heart has also become more at ease."

The old lady calmly passed on Shen Yuechen's many years of living outside, not wanting to make family affairs public and cause gossip.

The old lady has always valued face the most. Hearing this, Shen Yuechen knew that she could no longer sit quietly and listen, so she quickly bowed her knees and said, "It's all thanks to grandma's blessing that my granddaughter can grow up safely. Blessing, my granddaughter is very grateful, and she is willing to pray to the Buddha for a lifetime of fasting and pray for her grandmother."

What she said was deep and sincere, and she deliberately gave the old lady a lot of face in front of Mrs. Zhu Er.

Sure enough, when the old lady heard the words, she looked a little surprised, but also a little happy, and looked at the eldest granddaughter seriously for the first time.It has been more than half a year since she moved back, but because of her taboo, she was rarely allowed to come to the main house.Originally, she was secretly worried that she would show timidity when meeting strangers, would make people laugh because she didn't understand the rules.Seeing her general appearance now, I couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and said gently: "You are weak, don't just give big gifts all the time, come and sit beside me."

As soon as the old lady spoke, the maids immediately helped Shen Yuechen to the side of Luohan's bed, and when she sat down, they were busy pouring tea and adding fruit plates.

The second wife, Chai, also felt that Shen Yuechen was sensible, and looked at her with a smile, her face full of kindness and gentleness.

Afterwards, Mrs. Xiao followed suit and said, "It's hot today, Chunying hastened to fan the eldest girl."

Behind everyone sitting in this room, there is a maid fan fanning, but she does not.

Although Wu Ma and Cui Xin also came along, they didn't dare to rush forward, they could only stand far away and secretly watch for the movement.

In fact, Shen Yuechen didn't feel hot at all, there were copper basins filled with big ice cubes in the four corners of the room to cool down, it was very cool, the feeling of sweating on his body when he just came here gradually disappeared.

Looking at Shen Yuechen who was sitting at the top, Shen Yuechang who was sitting next to Mrs. Xiao suddenly felt that she was left out, and her heart gradually became uneasy. She raised her eyes and said with a smile: "It's rare for my cousin's sincerity and filial piety. Sigh, I have to learn more from my sister in the future."

Shen Yuechen's face flushed slightly when he heard this, and he smiled a little embarrassedly.

Shen Yuechang continued: "My sister writes well, and when you have time later, you have to teach me well."

Seeing the sarcasm flashing in her eyes, Shen Yuechen couldn't help sighing secretly in her heart.

I didn't come here today to show off and compete for favor...
