Chapter 1137 1137: Shen Zhongli (Part 2) [Asking for monthly votes]
Hearing the woman's voice, the guard hurriedly retracted his extended hand as if touching hot iron, lowered his head and clasped his fists, saying: "Mother, please be careful of this untouchable of unknown origin. How can any woman from an ordinary family speak like her?" ? Are you still—"
He nervously raised his eyelids and stared at the woman's movements, and at the same time he was wary of Shen Tang, fearing that Shen Tang would suddenly get angry and hurt his mistress.
The woman said: "He looks pitiful."
The guard couldn't express his sorrow, so he cast his pleading eyes on the carriage in the center, trying to let the parents in the carriage understand his dilemma at this 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. Judging from your conversation, you also come from a wealthy family. Why don't you serve as a maid for my daughter and then slowly find your relatives?"
“Madam, her identity is unknown.”
The man's gentle voice came from the carriage.
There is no emotion or anger to be heard, but it is obvious that he does not 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 because of doubts."
The man in the carriage stopped insisting upon hearing this.
Shen Tang managed to sneak in.
The motorcade 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 rode his horse to greet him, 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 young boy's handsome face, her eyes were not only kind but also gratifying, as if she were looking at a masterpiece of the Creator: "For me, eating out and drinking dew is also a pleasure. When it comes to enduring hardship, I just miss you and your sister." My brother can’t sleep.”
The young man cried: "Is what mother said true?"
The woman said: "It's more real than pearls."
The young man has never heard of such a thing: "What kind of words are these?"
The woman said: "It's about the five elements of bad virtue."
The man standing behind the mother and son raised his eyebrows slightly, stopped the woman's words, and blamed his son: "Your mother has been busy traveling and traveling these past few days. This is not a place to talk and reminisce. Let's go to the city first."
The young man blamed himself: "My son was too happy and forgot about the rules."
He is not very old. Although he has grown taller, his cheeks still have a little baby fat, and his 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!"
There was a hint of impatience in his tone that could be easily understood by outsiders, and the boy could naturally hear 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 saying that, he turned around and returned to the carriage.
Youth boy: “…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 can a young man dare to believe it?
In his memory, his parents had always been a loving couple, but one day, his mother suddenly took the book and Li Shu and left with her few luggage. The boy thought she would seek refuge with her grandmother and uncle, but unexpectedly she disappeared.
He doesn't know what kind of conflict his parents are having.
When the quarrel got serious, his father would tell him about his mother's current situation as if he was showing mercy, and each time it would be 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.
He once fell into the century-old problem of "the enemy who kills his mother is his biological father". However, he is still young and has siblings 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, which will affect the lives of him and his siblings. Life.
He buries his worries in his heart.
Be prepared to wait until the sister and brother discuss marriage.
Fortunately, the misunderstanding was resolved later.
A few years ago, on the anniversary of his mother's death, he was in a bad mood and drank too much. He left his mouth open and let out 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: […Huh? 】
Seeing that the Dong Chuang incident had 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 leave the book? 】
He is just young, not smart.
This sentence seems to have touched the man’s sore foot.
Complex emotions appeared on his 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, which also made him hear 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 was actually unhappy all the time.
He said that his mother loved people very much, but she just didn’t love him.
He said that a short-lived senior brother who didn't even go to 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 her mother would never look back once they made up their minds. 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 it mean to be away from the book?
If the heart goes away, the marriage certificate will be useless!
In addition to the emotional aspect, the domestic situation in Qi State is also a bit complicated, and the mother can still be safe if she leaves 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, feeling pitiful and trying 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.
result-
Young man: "Huh?"
The woman gritted her teeth: "His drinking capacity starts at ten jars." This stupid boy really thinks that he has the same drinking capacity as a cat, and his father will also have the same drinking capacity? 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 succeeded on the wedding night.
Youth boy: “…”
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."
Young man: "...Then his words are all false?"
This fact made him hurt. Fortunately, he had still cared about his father for so many years. Whenever there was a conflict, he would think of his father's embarrassment and loss that night, and his momentum would be lowered. result-
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 percent drunk, and the acting will make you cry! Five Elements Wicked is 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 she was complaining on her lips, she was paying attention to her mother's emotions in her heart.
Seeing that she was not angry or disgusted, I couldn't help but feel relieved.
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 there is someone in my heart? Why don't you ask who is the person in his heart? The person in my heart is dead after all. Yes, that one is still alive and kicking in his heart. How many members of the Cui clan want to be the mistress again! It’s just that times have changed and people don’t like her. "
The young man was frightened when he heard this.
Haunted, he turned his head to pay attention to the situation in the car.
Mother said: "What are you afraid of? Didn't my mother just say that with your father's meek personality, who would be so angry with him?"
It’s not fun to even quarrel.
The young man 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 the way and didn't even ask."
Going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, a woman who has been divorced for many years suddenly returns. Everyone is surprised to have questions in their minds, wondering if there is any conspiracy behind 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: "It's good if 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 I’m curious about the appearance and temperament of your future wife.”
This reason is very reasonable.
"Besides, my mother saw your grandfather outside, and she was also worried about your grandmother's body, so she wanted to come back and visit her to fulfill her filial piety. A man can do without, but his mother cannot be lost." The woman caressed He stroked the messy hair on his temples and said, "Hahaha, it's just that your father is on guard. My mother has just entered the border area, so I asked him to send someone to take her away."
The words are said with hostility.
Obviously, this "please" is not very friendly.
The young man stopped the topic with a wink - there are some things that are better off if he doesn't want to, but once he thinks about them, he gets angrier and angrier - and he doesn't dare to intercede with his father for fear of adding fuel to the fire.
Father has indeed become close to the king over the years.
Alas, what is this all about?
There is still a long way to go before we stay, so the boy really has no topic to talk about, so he racks his brains to find new topics to liven up the atmosphere. After searching around, I found that Shen Tang was wearing something 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 has been following his own convoy and has not been driven away.
“Mother, who is she?”
The woman said: "Poor child taken in on the road."
The young man asked again: "What's your last name?"
Shen Tang said: "Shen."
This last name makes a woman’s heart skip a beat.
“Shen? What’s your name?”
Shen Tang said: "Shen Zhongli."
woman:"…"
Shen Tang just came up with such a fake name out of fun. Unexpectedly, the man who had been quiet in the carriage suddenly spoke up and asked a very playful question: "Oh, which Shen? Which pear?"
Shen Tang said with a bit of hatred: "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 the child's voice was 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 on her face: "Tsk, there are so many suspicious people. You don't think that the dignified leader of the Kang Kingdom will come here in person, do you? What's in a name? There are so many people named Shen Youli in the world. went."
Shen Zhongli made him, a mute, speak.
Shen Youli came in person, wouldn't his ancestral grave be exploded?
The man sighed: "You know that's not what I meant."
Shen Tang’s appearance was too blunt, so the lady decided to stay because she saw her fresh appearance. 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 a dilemma.
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 king has invited you."

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