Gentle Beast [Entertainment Circle] - Chapter 95
See Parent Article (Part 1)
The Shen family’s mansion is very simple and elegant.
It was no different from the gardens Ye Liuying had been to before.
Pavilions and pavilions, pools and pavilions.
Every scene has an elegant taste.
Ye Liuying didn’t have much experience in getting along with elders.
It would be better if it was only Old Master Shen. After all, they had met briefly once, and she was somewhat at ease.
Others are not so good.
Even Shen Xingzhou’s father, Ye Liuying couldn’t see clearly.
“I’m here, don’t be nervous.”
Shen Xingzhou clenched Ye Liuying’s hand, lowered his head and said in her ear.
It is impossible not to be nervous at all.
The old housekeeper led them all the way through the corridor, and Ye Liuying saw a large family headed by Mr. Shen from a distance.
The Shen family has many descendants.
The only people who came that day were from the family, Ye Liuying glanced at it roughly, there must be at least a dozen of them.
Shen Zhishan and his wife have two sons, both of whom are married.
But it is said that Shen Zhishan also raised a lot of little lovers outside, gave birth to a pair of twins, and finally only his daughter was brought back by him.
Somehow, on an occasion like today, that illegitimate child also came to the door.
They are a family of eight, neat and tidy.
Shen Zhining, who seemed to be lonely, was particularly deserted.
“My uncle’s family is messed up, there is no good person, you should stay away from them.”
Ye Liuying suddenly thought of what Shen Xingzhou had said to her before she came.
“…Why are you waiting for us outside?” She whispered to Shen Xingzhou.
“I said earlier that Grandpa likes you.” Shen Xingzhou took Ye Liuying’s hand as a matter of course and walked forward.
Ye Liuying looked around quietly.
She originally wanted to see if she could match people and names, but she became blind first.
Fortunately, the situation at Shen Xingzhou’s house was relatively simple.
He was the only child, and although Shen Zhixing and Shu Rou were not very peaceful, they didn’t cause any trouble.
He had seen Shen Zhixing, so the lady in cheongsam beside him must be Shu Rou.
Before Ye Liuying could sort out her thoughts, they walked up to Old Master Shen.
“grandfather.”
Shen Xingzhou took Ye Liuying’s shoulders and said hello to the old man, “I brought Ah Ying back to see you.”
“Grandpa.” Ye Liuying shyly greeted the old man Shen.
“Just come.” Old Shen smiled and nodded, obviously not satisfied with Ye Liuying.
The Shen family remembered that the old man took the initiative to visit Zhong’s house to see her.
Seeing this scene now, there is no reaction on the face, but each has his own ideas behind his back.
The old man already prefers Shen Xingzhou, and if there is one more Ye Liuying, the benefits that fall on them will probably be discounted.
What’s more, the conditions of the Zhong family are good, which is undoubtedly a help to Shen Xingzhou.
But they can only think behind their backs.
No one dared to do anything wrong in front of the old man.
“I saw this girl lost a lot of weight.”
Before it was time for dinner, the old man Shen greeted Ye Liuying and sat on the sofa beside him, “It must be that the mistress didn’t take good care of you.”
Shen Xingzhou ranked third in the Shen family, and above him were Shen Zhishan’s two sons.
The nickname “Little San” made Ye Liuying can’t help laughing, so that she didn’t feel any more angry when she remembered the “third brother” that Shu Ya had called him earlier.
“Grandpa, your partiality is too obvious.” Shen Xingzhou raised his eyebrows and said, “I’m still sitting here.”
“I can’t tell you if you didn’t do well?” Elder Shen glared at Shen Xingzhou immediately.
The grandfather and grandson bickered like a three-year-old child.
Ye Liuying felt warm in her heart and took the initiative to say, “Brother Azhou is thinner than me.”
It was rare for Shen Xingzhou to hear Ye Liuying calling him that.
He enjoyed it so much that he didn’t care what she said.
“He’s been like this since he was a child.” After hearing this, Old Man Shen really observed Shen Xingzhou, “When the weather is hot, you can’t eat well.”
Ye Liuying didn’t dare to say that she is also of this virtue, at this point they are two and a half.
Shen Xingzhou simply sold it badly, “The first time Ah Ying came back to our house, why don’t you save me some face, Grandpa?”
“Do you still have face?” This time it was Shen Zhining who spoke. She sat on a single sofa by herself and lifted her eyelids lazily.
“My aunt is laughing at me again, Grandpa.” Shen Xingzhou raised his head in a very unemotional manner.
The rest of the people present had no sense of existence. Seeing that Ye Liuying and Shen Xingzhou occupied the position closest to the old man, they couldn’t say anything.
Who would have thought that Shen Zhining and this pair seemed to have a good relationship?
“Your sister-in-law didn’t say anything.”
The old man Shen blew his beard and stared, “Are you still nervous?”
“Why am I nervous?” Shen Xingzhou betrayed Shen Zhining, “I was thinking that my aunt is not too young, why can’t I get along with me? I have to find a little uncle.”
“You’d better worry about your own marriage first.” Shen Zhining secretly made a note for Shen Xingzhou.
“Ning Ning is right.” Elder Shen listened carefully.
Compared with Shen Zhining’s invisible marriage, Shen Xingzhou is more reliable, “When are you two going to get married?”
“dad.”
Shen Zhixing, who had not spoken much, finally returned to his father’s position, “They are not very old, so don’t be in a hurry? Besides, Nong Nong has just come back, so I’m afraid the Zhong family will have to support them for two more years.”
“When your brother was as old as Xiaosan, he already had two children.” Mr. Shen said calmly.
“Dad, can it be compared to now?” Shen Zhishan, who was suddenly cued, cleared his throat, “Young people nowadays like to fall in love and don’t want to get married too early.”
While speaking, he glanced at Shen Zhining intentionally or unintentionally, and almost didn’t name him.
Ye Liuying watched the excitement and heard Shen Zhining ask, “Is the eldest brother talking about me?”
Simply exciting.
Shen Zhishan was also a little uncomfortable.
He was organizing the language, and Shen Zhining grabbed the first place again, “If this is the case, Azhou and the others would have to get married sooner, lest they end up like me and be indecent.”
“You misunderstood what big brother meant.” Shen Zhishan had always been unable to say what Shen Zhining was saying, and changed his words quickly.
“Okay.” Old Man Shen frowned impatiently, “Is it a problem for the little three to get married? They jumped up and down one by one, for fear that others would not know what you were thinking.”
Jump up and sink into Zhixing, jump down and sink into Zhishan: “…”
Ye Liuying originally thought that in such a situation, only Shen Xingzhou could come out and say good things.
Who knew that Shen Zhishan’s family still had a powerful one.
“Grandpa, don’t be angry.” Shen Xinghui came over and handed a cup of hot tea, “My dad can’t speak his mind. He told me a while ago that a strong woman like my aunt is much happier not to get married than to get married.”
“The marriage is still to be done.”
The old man Shen was really distracted by Shen Xinghui, “I don’t mean anything, as long as the conditions are decent and the character is good.”
Ye Liuying was wondering why Shen Zhishan brought her illegitimate daughter back alone.
Now it seems that their purpose of raising her is to please the old man.
The result seems to be quite successful.
I don’t know how Shen Zhishan’s wife feels.
“Then I have to keep my eyes open and take a good look.” Shen Zhixing didn’t even look at Shen Xinghui, so he directly stole the topic.
Mr. Shen didn’t say a word, and he agreed.
Ye Liuying has heard people talk about the situation of the Shen family more than once, and the feeling of being in it is quite novel.
They sat for about half an hour, and all the words inside and outside were mysterious.
Fortunately, it didn’t take long before the group moved to the restaurant.
The Shen family’s round table is very large, just enough to accommodate twelve of them, and it doesn’t look crowded when sitting.
Mr. Shen is in the upper position.
Ye Liuying was sitting on his right. Originally, Shen Xingzhou was supposed to be sitting on his left, but he didn’t want to, so he just sat next to Ye Liuying.
In the end, Shen Xinghui picked up a leak.
“Azhou and Miss Zhong have a really good relationship.” Shu Rou sighed at the dinner table.
A simple title can reveal a lot of details.
So Ye Liuying understood that Shen Xingzhou’s mother didn’t seem to like her very much.
Shu Rou is beautiful and moving, and she does not look old when she is over forty years old.
Shen Xingzhou’s peach blossom eyes were inherited from her, but Shu Rou herself was more coquettish when she smiled.
Ye Liuying didn’t feel anything else, she just felt that she didn’t seem to be a very smart type.
“Brother and sister, are you envious?”
It was Shen Zhishan’s wife, Liu Ruyun, Shen Xingzhou’s eldest aunt, who spoke, “It’s not easy for them to be together when they are young, and Nong Nong has suffered a lot outside, right? Now it’s all hard work, and this child looks like a A lucky one.”
Her sentence “Dense” was meant to be compared with Shu Rou.
If nothing else, in terms of speaking level alone, Liu Ruyun is a lot taller.
I think that Shen Xinghui learned from her.
Sure enough, the smile on Shu Rou’s face gradually faded, “Sister-in-law said yes.”
“Speaking of which, sister-in-law is lucky.” Although Shen Zhining couldn’t stand Shu Rou, she saw Liu Ruyun even more annoying, “Both children.”
Liu Ruyun: Dirty words.
The daughter is not hers.
“Then Ningning, you have to hurry up.” Liu Ruyun said as she stopped.
“Second sister-in-law can still work hard, but I can’t be in a hurry even if I want to.” Shen Zhining changed his face and pretended to be sad and sighed.
Shu Rou: Dirty words.
Not trying to thank you.
But I didn’t want the old man to interject, “If you really want to add a sister to the little three.”
“I’m just afraid of giving birth to a younger brother.” Shu Roupi said with a smile.
She was well-maintained, she was married early, and it is not uncommon for her to have children at her age.
But she also said that on purpose. In fact, she never thought of having another child with Shen Zhixing.
The old man Shen frowned and didn’t speak.
Shen Zhixing on the side didn’t know what to think, so he gave Shu Rou a meaningful look.
It is said that they are a family, but this group of people really put their appearance together to the extreme.
This is only the second generation dancing, and the juniors on the side haven’t made a sound yet.
Ye Liuying could see clearly.
She doesn’t have this kind of big family experience, as long as she doesn’t get involved, she can keep calm.
“Are you scared?”
Shen Xingzhou had misunderstood Ye Liuying, took a chance, turned his head and bit her ear.
He watched her eating absent-mindedly, and scooped a spoonful of almond tofu into the bowl for her, “Leave them alone.”
“It’s quite interesting.” Ye Liuying shook her head slightly, and the low voice just got into Shen Xingzhou’s ears.
Shen Xingzhou: ? ? ?
So he misunderstood?
Ye Liuying’s performance was very different from what he imagined.
Seeing her appearance, Shen Xingzhou almost thought that she was going to shoot a Gong Dou drama next.
