Chapter 1137 1137: Shen Zhongli (Part 2) [Please vote]
Hearing the woman’s voice, the guard’s stretched out hand quickly retracted as if it were touching hot iron. He lowered his head and clasped his fists and said, “Mother, please return. Please be careful about the origin of this Ming's pariah. How can a woman from an ordinary family speak like her?"
He raised his eyelids nervously and stared at the woman's movements, while being wary of Shen Tang, fearing that Shen Tang would suddenly become violent. to harm the mistress.
The woman said: "You look pitiful."
The guard couldn't tell the pain, and turned his eyes for help to the carriage in the center, trying to reach the parents in the carriage through the carriage. He was in trouble at the moment. The woman didn't even look at the guard. She lowered her eyes and looked at Shen Tang, who was dressed in a mixed style: "Where are you from?"
Shen Tang didn't know what place was nearby, so he simply regarded the small town just now as the ancestral home of this body. When the woman heard the answer, she was startled at first, and then she smiled slightly and joked: "You are quite smart and vigilant. It's just that you have a Northern accent. How can you be from Chengxian County? That's all. Meeting means we are destined. Watch your conversation She also comes from a wealthy family, why not serve as a maid for my daughter and then slowly find her relatives?”
“Madam, her identity is unknown”
The man’s warm voice came from the carriage. Voice.
I couldn’t hear any emotion or anger, but I obviously didn’t agree with the woman’s decision.
How can you let a woman whose future is unknown be with your daughter?
She refuted it without looking back and insisted on her opinion: "If you don't know the details, check it out. You can't just ignore it just because of suspicion."
The man in the carriage no longer insisted after hearing this.
Shen Tang managed to sneak in.
The convoy drove slowly through Chengxian County, and only reached the next city near dusk. The scale of this city is much larger than that of Cheng County. The guards at the city gate are all young and strong, with high spirits. You can tell at a glance that they are well-trained soldiers. The flags on the city wall are fluttering in the wind. Only the traces on the city wall showed that this place had been involved in a war not long ago, and it was unknown which side won.
"Father, mother——"
Before the motorcade even approached the city gate, the young man who had been waiting for a long time came on horseback, followed closely by more than a dozen guards, fearing that this ancestor might have some shortcomings. The boy didn't wait for the horse to stop before he got off the horse, held up the hem of his clothes, and trotted all the way to the center of the convoy.
The woman who took Shen Tang in earlier heard the call, opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage. The man who came out later took a look and stepped down step by step on the sedan chair. The young man couldn't wait to throw himself into the woman's arms, his eyes filled with tears of grievance: "Mother, you have come back to see your son. My father wrote a letter saying that you are back. My son still can't believe it. Have you endured hardships outside these years?"
The woman caressed the boy’s handsome face, her eyes were not only loving but also gratifying. It was as if she was looking at a masterpiece of the Creator: "For me, eating out and drinking dew is also a pleasure. If I say it's hard, I just miss you and your sister and brother who can't sleep."
The young man cried. : "Is what mother said true?"
The woman said: "It is truer than pearls."
The young man has never heard such words: "What kind of words are these?"
The woman said: "The five elements are evil."
The man standing behind the mother and son raised his eyebrows slightly and stopped The woman retorted and blamed her son: "Your mother has been busy traveling and traveling these past few days. This is not a place to talk about old times, so we should go to the city first.”
The boy blamed himself: “My son is too happy and has forgotten his sense of propriety.”
He is not old, and although he is taller, There is still a little baby fat on her cheeks, and her facial features still look childish.
"I'm very old? How long have I been traveling and I can't hold on anymore?" The woman was obviously dissatisfied with the man's arrangement. She turned around and said to the young man, "Don't listen to him. Give me a horse!"
The young man happily agreed.
The woman glanced at the man: "Take your carriage!"
The tone contained a hint of impatience that could be understood by others, and the boy naturally heard it. He looked at the parents like a frightened bird, fearing that a conflict would break out between them. Unexpectedly, the man just told the young man to take care of the woman and not let her catch the cold.
After that, he turned around and returned to the carriage.
Young man: "...Father's temper?"
"Isn't he always like this? Even if the sky falls, he won't be in a hurry to run away. He can slowly arrange his jingle accessories."
There is no need to worry about them quarreling at all.
How dare the boy believe it?
In his memory, his parents had always been a loving couple, but one day, his mother suddenly left with Li Shu and a few luggage. The boy thought she would seek refuge with her grandmother and uncle, but unexpectedly she disappeared.
He didn't know what kind of conflict his parents had.
When the trouble got serious, his father would tell him about his mother's current situation as if he was benevolent, each time with just a few words. Not long after, there were rumors that the father was dissatisfied with his mother's background and secretly let her die of illness to make room for a well-matched future mistress.
This rumor spread for several years, and he even believed it.
Once he was caught in the century-old problem of "the enemy who kills his mother is his biological father". However, he is still young and has sisters and brothers in the family who need his support. Any behavior that goes against his father's words and deeds will also attract speculation from the outside world, and then Impact on his and his siblings' lives.
He buried his worries in his heart.
Prepare to wait until the sister and brother discuss marriage.
Fortunately, the misunderstanding was resolved later.
On the anniversary of his mother’s death a few years ago, he was in a bad mood and drank alcohol. He kept his mouth shut and confided a lot of things that should be said but should not be said. He still remembered that when he sobered up, he saw his father's face as a widower whose wife had died when he opened his eyes, and his eyes were terrifyingly cold. Just when he felt his neck getting cold, his father said quietly: "Did you tell your sisters and brothers everywhere that your mother died, or did she die of illness?" 】
Young man: [...ah? 】
Seeing that the Dong Chuang incident happened, the young man no longer held back any longer, and spoke a lot of what was in his heart, full of hatred with nowhere to vent.
Until the man said: "Your mother just went out to relax, and you went around saying that she was dead. You are really her good son." 】
【...Which house’s mistress goes out to relax and take care of the book? 】
He is just young, not smart.
This sentence seems to have touched the man's sore foot.
Complex emotions appeared on the usually calm face. It was also the first time on this day that his father, who had always liked tea, drank in front of him. The father and son seem to have the same bad drinking ability. The father got drunk after just a few drinks, and he heard what was in his heart...
He said that his mother was actually very reluctant to let go of the three siblings.
He said that his mother had never been happy.
He said that his mother was very good at loving people, but she just didn’t love him.
He said that a short-lived senior brother who didn't even attend church could live in her heart for so many years and be remembered by her for so long. The human heart is so big to begin with, and there are people inside that are always occupying space. No matter how hard the newcomers try, they cannot occupy all of it.
He said that once his beauty faded away, his appearance no longer made his mother angry and he could no longer attract her attention...
He said that the identity of Mistress Cui made her very unhappy. She loved freedom more than anything else now. People with a personality like his mother would never look back once they made up their mind. She took the initiative to propose reconciliation. If she didn't agree this time, there would be another time. The two of them were a couple, and they really didn't want to end up in a quarrel that would leave them with nothing but affection.
If the human heart is there, what does Li Shu mean?
If the human heart is gone, the marriage document is also a waste of paper!
In addition to the emotional aspect, the domestic situation in Qi State is also a bit complicated, and the mother can ensure safety by leaving at this time. I believe that as long as the child is still there, she will come back to take a look one day. But when he sobered up the next day, his father completely forgot about these drunken words.
The boy no longer had a cold war with him, and the relationship between father and son remained as before.
He told these things, pitifully, and tried to help his father win back his mother. Even if the couple does not remarry, it would be better if the mother is willing to stay in the country, at least as close as possible. The young man spoke politely and pitifully, and from time to time he would use his peripheral vision to pay attention to his mother who was walking beside him.
The result——
The woman just asked in a funny way: "Is your father drunk?"
The boy: "Huh?"
The woman gritted her teeth: "He His drinking capacity starts at ten jars. "Does this stupid boy really think that his drinking capacity is the same as Mao'er's? When I fell in love with this face, I tried my best to give him hints, but it was a pity that he didn't take the bait. After she knew that the other person was also interested in her, she gave him alcohol and tried to have drunken sex. As a result, she was so drunk that she held the table and vomited, but the other party remained motionless and elegant as before.
Finally, I succeeded on the wedding night.
The young man: "..."
He turned his head sharply to look at the car behind him, but hesitated to speak.
"The father is not..."
The woman said: "I'm just kidding you."
The boy: "...then what he said are all lies?"
This fact hurt him, and it was a good thing that he still cared about his father for so many years. , every time there was a conflict, I would think of my father’s embarrassment and loss that night, and my momentum would be lowered. The result——
Are they all fake?
Shen Tang listened to the gossip with great interest and made appropriate comments.
[The man is 70% drunk and will act until you cry. 】
The woman had a clear understanding of her, and made the same judgment: "The man is 70% drunk, and he will act until you cry! The five elements of evil are worthy of being a man, and he really understands men very well, but you are the only one being fooled."
The young man muttered: "This is nothing."
While he was complaining, he was paying attention to his mother's mood in his heart.
I couldn’t help but feel relieved when I saw that she wasn’t angry or disgusted.
This at least proves that the mother doesn't dislike the father that much.
Just when he was rejoicing, his mother said coldly: "Your father is not only good at telling lies, but also telling lies. What do you mean I have someone in my heart? Why don't you ask him who he has in his heart? I The person in his heart is dead after all, but the one in his heart is still alive and kicking. How many people in the Cui clan want to be the mistress again! Haha, it’s just that times have changed and people don’t like it.”
The young man was frightened when he heard this. .
I was so frightened that I turned my head to pay attention to the situation in the carriage.
My mother said: "What are you afraid of? Didn't my mother just say that with your father's meek personality, who would he become jealous of?"
I can't even argue, it's very boring.
The boy shrank his neck: "How long can mother stay this time?"
The woman chuckled: "I thought you would ask me why I came back this time, but your father held it in all this time without asking. Come out."
Going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, a woman who has been divorced for many years suddenly returns. Everyone is stunned and wonders if there is any conspiracy in her trip. It's just that men don't take the initiative to ask, and women don't bother to take the initiative to say it, because they just can't vent their anger.
The young man whispered: "As long as mother is willing to come back."
Seeing her son's appearance, the woman's anger was suppressed by her guilt: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I made a friend who I fell in love with at first sight. From her mouth, I learned that Cui wanted to find a well-matched woman for you. Although I can’t say anything about your marriage, but as a mother and son, I’m also curious about your future wife’s appearance and temperament.”
This reason is very reasonable.
"In addition, my mother saw your grandfather outside, and she was also concerned about your grandmother's health, so she wanted to come back and visit her to fulfill her filial piety. A man can do without, but a mother can never Lost it." The woman stroked her messy hair, "Hehehe, it's just that your father was on guard. My mother had just entered the country, so I asked him to send someone to take her away. "
The words were laced with hostility.
Obviously, this "please" is not very friendly.
The young man stopped the topic with a wink - there are some things that are okay if he doesn't want to, but once he thinks about them, he gets angrier and angrier, and the angrier he gets, the more he thinks about them - and he dare not intercede with his father for fear of adding fuel to the fire.
My father has indeed become close to the king over the years.
Oh, what the hell is this!
There was still a long way to go before we settled down. Seeing that there was really nothing to talk about, the boy racked his brains to find new topics to liven up the atmosphere. After searching around, I found Shen Tang—otherwise, her dress was too eye-catching. There is something subtly funny about the wide men's clothes wrapped around the body. From the collar to the hem and trouser legs, everything is covered with irregular patches.
Most likely it was taken from that corpse.
This person continued to follow his motorcade and was not driven away.
"Mother, who is she?"
The woman said: "The poor child we took in on the road."
The boy asked again: "What is your surname?"
Shen Tang said: "Shen."
The surname made the woman's heart skip a beat.
"Shen? What's your name?"
Shen Tang said: "Shen Zhongli."
The woman: "..."
Shen Tang can't do it I just came up with such a pseudonym out of fun. Unexpectedly, the man who had been quiet in the carriage suddenly spoke up and asked a very playful question: "Oh, which one is heavy? Which one is pear?"
There was a hint of hatred in Shen Tang's words: "My family's surname is Zhongli. I had to change my name just to take refuge."
The man said: "Zhongli? Oh, no wonder."
No wonder this child's voice is filled with hatred. There are so many surnames in the North, big and small, but no matter who they are, as long as they are related to the aristocratic family, Shen Tang has fixed them. Since Shen Tang came to power, the Beidi family has either endured it or taken the whole family and fled to seek refuge.
Southwest is one of their best choices.
The woman rolled her eyes impatiently and laughed directly in her face: "Tsk, there are so many suspicious people. You don't think that the dignified Lord of Kang will come here in person, do you? What's the point of a name? What's the name in the world? Shen Youli has a lot.”
Shen Zhongli made him, a mute, speak.
Shen Youli is here in person, isn’t his ancestral grave about to explode?
The man sighed: "You know that's not what I meant."
The way Shen Tang appeared was too blunt, so the lady saw her fresh appearance and decided to stay. What if she had bad intentions? ? The man also knew that his wife was angry and could not listen to his words.
Woman: "Ha!"
The young man was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma.
But at this time, someone came to add fuel to the fire.
The group had just arrived, and there were already people waiting and looking at the door.
"Mr. Cui, you are back." The man who spoke was white-faced, beardless, and had a high-pitched voice. He was actually a chamberlain in the palace. The woman's face darkened as soon as she saw him. The chamberlain said to herself, "The Lord has invited you. .”

The appearance of a man, the glory of his wife.
