Chapter 53 - Lunar New Year\\\'s eve
…
Shen Jingzhi looked at his son’s immature face full of expectation, and tasted the embarrassment for the first time.
Bai Chu was only stunned for a moment, and when he saw Shen Jingyi’s instantly stiff face, he felt more and more amused. He tilted his head, and his attitude was very cooperative. He smiled and said: “Yes, big brother, do you want me to apologize?”
“No need.” Shen Jingzhi spat out two words forcefully, and his eyes fell on the tip of her slightly red nose uncontrollably, “I didn’t notice it for a while, and it hurt you.”
Logically, he should have added some caring words later, but Shen Jingzhi never said soft words, he pondered over and over in his heart for a long time, and then said: “Where is the injury on the body?”
Coupled with his serious and indifferent expression, those who didn’t know thought he was questioning.
Bai Chu laughed softly, his eyebrows and eyes curved, and he looked forward to a bright smile: “It’s not so, I wear thick clothes in winter.” It’s just that the nose still hurts a little, so it can be ignored.
“By the way, where is the big brother leading Xiao Hao’er?”
Shen Jingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, his tone was steady and concise: “Return to Yunxiao Courtyard.” After he finished speaking, he remembered and asked suspiciously, “Why did my brother and sister come here?”
“Is this road leading to Yunxiao Courtyard?” Bai Chu glanced thoughtfully towards the end of the corridor, and smiled lightly, “I just walked around casually, and I didn’t expect to bump into you. It’s fate.”
The word fate is always a bit subtle, Shen Jingzhi was stunned, it seemed to be absent, like a light feather brushing through his heart, a faint itch slowly spread, and before he noticed it, he saw Bai Chu suddenly smiled. He reached out and hugged Shen Yuanhao: “However, if Big Brother really wants to make amends, let Xiao Haoer play with me for an afternoon.”
“Father?” Before Shen Yuanhao could react, he fell into a fragrant and soft embrace, and a warm and fragrant breath slowly enveloped his body. His round ears on both sides were red all over, and he was in a hurry to get down. After the age of 20, I won’t let people hug me like this again, and neither can my nanny.
He is a bit heavy, and with layers of winter clothes on top of it, Bai Chu couldn’t take it any longer, and when he loosened his hand, he almost dropped the child. Under the arm, the person was supported.
“Don’t make trouble, I’ll fall on you later!” Rao Shi Bai Chu couldn’t help but be frightened. He raised his hand and hit him. It landed on Shen Yuanhao’s little butt, and the little face that resisted was stunned for a moment. His eyes were slowly covered with a layer of water mist, the young master sniffed aggrievedly, pursed his lips tightly and refused to let the tears flow, he was extremely stubborn.
“You, you…” Shen Yuanhao shouted angrily at Bai Chu for a long time in his tender voice, then turned his head to complain to Shen Jingzhi, “Daddy, save me, I don’t want to go with the third aunt!”
“Why?” The smile on Bai Chu’s face was brighter than the warm sun in winter, “Xiao Hao’er, am I treating you badly?”
Her tone was soft enough to wring out water.
Shen Yuanhao struggled so much that his movements unknowingly became smaller, and he had reason and reason: “You just hit me.” He still hit that place.
No one ever hit him.
“Then I’m also worried about you, right?” With Shen Jingzhi supporting him, Bai Chu simply moved most of the weight of the child in his arms, “If it weren’t for your quick reaction, do you know how dangerous it is to suddenly fall like this? “
Shen Yuanhao didn’t realize that he was handed over to his father’s arms, his long and thick eyelashes fell down, and his little face was drooping. He was originally very angry, but after hearing her so softly persuade him, it all turned into a grievance. .
“Huh? Xiao Hao’er is such a powerful and tolerant little man, he will forgive my mistakes, right?” Bai Chu squeezed Xiao Bai’s cheek like a dumpling, “Hey, the third aunt accidentally hit me. It’s time for you, so I want to tell you I’m sorry, then Xiao Hao’er moved around and was almost injured, which made your father and I worry, what are you going to do?”
“Yes, I’m sorry.” The little guy shyly spat out three words, refusing to look at her with a low face.
“Okay,” Bai Chu straightened up with a smile and patted his head lightly, “Then I forgive you!”
She raised her head to meet Shen Jingzhi’s drooping gaze, just as a ray of sunlight projected through the eaves, making his dark eyes seem to be dyed with a soft light, blurring the indifference and coldness in them.
Bai Chu Zhanyan smiled: “What is the big brother taking Xiao Hao’er back to Yunxiao Academy?”
Shen Jingzhi lowered his head in silence and looked at Shen Yuanhao, who was sitting on his arm. From a distance it looks like a small ball.
His cold and hard lines softened slightly, and the soft light in his eyes showed through his sharp eyebrows, and the extreme contrast made people unable to look away: “Practice martial arts.”
Shen Jingzhi paused, then added: “Strengthen your body.”
Shen Yuanhao is a premature baby, and everyone has always been very careful about his health.
Bai Chu didn’t miss Shen Yuanhao’s pursed lips, smiled and said, “If eldest brother doesn’t mind, can you bring me more?”
She was a little distressed: “Because of the matter of entering the palace on the first day, my mother invited Aunt Fang to teach me various palace rules and etiquette. It’s fine for a day or two, but it will inevitably be boring after a long time.” She smiled. Wan Wan showed a sly light, “Anyway, I sneaked out today. As long as Big Brother doesn’t betray me, no one would have thought that I would be here.”
“And you,” she rubbed Shen Yuanhao’s head, raised her face, and pretended to be a serious threat, “You can’t betray me, you know?”
Shen Yuanhao didn’t like to practice martial arts very much, but he admired his long-cherished father and finally came back. As long as he could be with him, he would do whatever he wanted.
Just a little bit of reluctance deep inside.
At this moment, when I heard that the third aunt was an adult, she would escape because she didn’t like to learn the rules. In Shen Yuanhao’s small mind, he couldn’t tell whether it was surprise or admiration. Anyway, his impression of her became a lot closer. .
The young master nodded solemnly: “Third aunt, don’t worry, I will keep it a secret for you.”
“Thank you, Xiao Hao’er~”
Mingming almost quarreled just now, but now they have become close friends.
Shen Jingzhi hugged Shen Yuanhao steadily, the two of them were laughing and laughing in their ears, and the brain circuits of two adults and children who were ten years apart were able to match each other, seriously discussing a large piece of the sky. Whether the cloud shape is more like a puppy or a kitten.
Shen Jingzhi couldn’t intervene, so he could only reluctantly slow down his pace, silently keeping Shen Yuanhao and Bai Chu separated by half an arm’s length, so that they could talk easily. As a result, the more they talked, the happier they were, and he completely forgot about him. .
This is about the time when Young Master Shen had the least sense of existence since he was born.
In a blink of an eye, on New Year’s Eve, Shen Yuzhi, who hadn’t seen each other for a long time, finally appeared. Bai Chu was not so interested in his whereabouts, but he was always looking at him without saying anything, but it aroused her interest. .
No matter what she asks this time, Shen Yuzhi, who has always been soft-hearted, refuses to say it directly. Bai Chu guessed that it is related to Bai Yinhua, so he suppressed his curiosity and turned to look forward to it. The introduction given below will show how many mines will explode in the future.
On the night of New Year’s Eve, the Shen family gathered together for a family banquet.
This is still the first year that Bai Chu has passed since he crossed over, and it is no different from later generations after careful study. It all means family reunion and happiness.
There are beaming red lanterns hanging on the eaves and pillars of the Shen mansion. Because of the eldest princess, the mansion also received the Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters from the emperor. After thanking him, he hung it solemnly on the door of the main hall.
Compared to walking in front of them cautiously, for fear of humiliating the respect of the Holy Lord Longen, Bai Chu did not have much conception. She still sighed that the emperor’s calligraphy was strong and sturdy, with thick muscles and bones. , is majestic and has its own unrestrained artistic conception.
Then Shuangxi solemnly said with an expression of “Although you are right, the works of the sage are of perfection and perfection. How can you comment on your own?” not good.”
Bai Chu: “…”
The old lady and the eldest princess, even Shen Yuan, did not like to be lively, so the family banquet was simply a family sitting together to welcome the old and remove the new, and they did not invite singing or dancing to celebrate like other families.
It’s just that with the Shen Ming family here this year, it will be more lively than before.
When the elders finished speaking, the banquet officially started.
While I was eating and drinking, when you added hi and I was toasting, Shen Fu suddenly stood up, her cheeks were flushed with a faint hint of drunkenness, she stepped forward to toast the eldest princess, but didn’t go back, instead she opened Yingying’s almond eyes. , asked bluntly and curiously: “His Royal Highness, is the palace really as splendid as people say?”
The lively and festive atmosphere was stagnant for a moment, and Hu’s reaction was faster than anyone else’s, and hurriedly said: “Fu’er, come back soon!”
He turned to the eldest princess and said, “Don’t be surprised, this child is young and naive. It is really offensive to say it out of curiosity.”
As usual, no matter how unhappy it is, it would be fine to listen to my mother, but Shen Fu may be really drunk at this moment, and she is more courageous than before: “Mother is right, I am really curious, after the year we will not be Are you going home? If you can be kind to the eldest princess, let me see what the palace looks like. After I go back, I can show it off to my sisters. I am an eye-opener, and none of them are comparable. superior!”
These words were naive, frank and honest, thinking that Shen Fu was only 14 years old, and she was also a child.
Seeing her like this, the elders can’t help but be more tolerant, and they don’t care too much.
The eldest princess smiled and said: “There’s nothing to see, how can you children understand? The palace rules are strict, but it can be tempered. A little girl like you should stay away, it’s better to be young and lively. .”
These words can’t scare Shen Fu, who has no other conception of the palace except for the beautiful yearning and imagination. In her heart, the palace houses the most honorable people in the world. Naturally, they must be good everywhere, otherwise how can they match?
Because of the eldest princess’s soft temperament, Shen Fu acted like a spoiled brat, and Hu Shi was sweating while watching, and was about to step forward to pull Shen Fu back when she heard Shen Ming suddenly laughing: “Fu’er here. The child’s willfulness will make you laugh, the eldest princess.”
“My two daughters, the reason why I brought them to Beijing is that they are almost at the age of leaving the cabinet. I want them to have a long-term experience, so that they don’t become petty and shame you and eldest brother.”
“If you can still see these two children, I beg you to teach me more, my younger brother will be going back after the year, and I don’t know when we will meet again… I always look forward to meeting you and my eldest brother. Learn more.”
After Shen Ming finished speaking fluently, a grateful smile appeared on his face: “I heard that you took the trouble to hire a teacher for your two children, it’s really… a little girl’s family, if I can really rely on you in the future, I will have the rest of my life. Happiness is all due to your merits.”
“Fur, Rong’er, don’t thank your aunt!”
As a melon eater, Bai Chu silently raised his wine glass to block the smile on his lips: This is really a talent.
A lot of words sounded sincere and sincere, and the old man who was not confused almost wiped his tears in front of the younger generation, but when he studied it carefully, he could make people dizzy. to teach his two daughters.
Where to take? Teaching what?
Isn’t this still begging people to enter the palace?
Seeing Shen Ming handing over the words to the old lady, talking about the interesting things she raised in front of the old lady when she was a child, compared to Shen Yuan’s calm and condensed, Shen Ming’s eloquence can’t be exaggerated.
The old lady was moved, and her eyes were filled with tears of nostalgia.
For the sake of the atmosphere, the eldest princess agreed, agreeing to bring sisters Shen Fu and Shen Rong into the palace that day, and also very politely brought Hu Shi.
After that, it was natural to be grateful again.
As far as Bai Chu is concerned, Momma Fang has more than one student under her, and since Sister Furong grew up outside the capital, Momma Fang gave them more thought and time.
Barely good news.
The author has something to say: Although everyone says that the pace is slow, I still like this kind of daily hahaha
Going to the palace tomorrow~
