Chapter 024: I can’t let my sister go back!
Seeing that Lu Ying didn't speak for a long time, Shen Ningyuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why? Don't you want to stay by my side?"
Lu Ying quickly shook her head, "Of course not, why would I be unwilling?"
"My lady is willing to let me serve you. I am so happy that I can't wait to see you. How can I not be willing?"
Green Oriole's voice became weaker and weaker. "But, young lady, you are a daughter of gold. I don't know how to do anything. I am afraid that I can't serve you well... I am also worried that I will make mistakes and make you unhappy."
It can be heard that she really wants to stay with Shen Ningyuan.
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan just smiled and asked: "You don't need to know too many things, I just want to ask you one question, will you betray me?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ying shook her head in panic and looked at Shen Ningyuan nervously, "Miss, how could I betray you?"
Shen Ningyuan didn't say anything, just looked at Luying quietly.
Luying thought that she didn't believe her, so she immediately raised four fingers and swore to the sky.
"Miss, I swear to heaven, if I dare to betray you in the future, I will die miserably!"
Seeing Lu Ying swearing so nervously, Shen Ningyuan said calmly, "You don't have to swear so cruelly. I believe you won't betray me."
Shen Ningyuan asked again: "So have you thought it through? Are you willing to stay with me?"
"Of course I am willing!" Lu Ying nodded, "Thank you, Miss. I am willing to keep this servant by your side!"
She is not an illegitimate child and has not been sold to the Shen family for long. It is not easy for her to make a name for herself.
But she didn't expect that within one day, she would gain Shen Ningyuan's favor!
All of a sudden, she went from being a menial maid to being the young lady's personal maid.
When she was sold to the General's Mansion, she never thought that there would be such an opportunity!
The more Lu Ying thought about it, the more excited she became, and she had already warned herself in her mind that she must serve Shen Ningyuan well.
Compared to her excitement, Shen Ningyuan seemed very calm.
Youyou reminded, "But you have to think it over carefully. I am a married woman. Although my husband died on the battlefield, I must return to the Ji family. At that time, you will also follow me to live in the Ji family. Life there will not be as good as in the general's mansion. You may also face difficulties from the Ji family."
"Miss, I don't mind!" After hearing this, Lu Ying's eyes became more determined, "Miss, you are willing to promote me, which means you think highly of me. What does it matter if I suffer a little?"
"Don't worry, Miss. Green Warbler is not afraid of hardship, but is afraid of causing trouble to you!" Green Warbler added.
Seeing her determined expression, Shen Ningyuan said nothing more, but nodded with satisfaction.
This girl has good character.
She felt relieved to have him stay by her side and serve her.
At this time, two servants came outside to remind them that it was time for dinner.
Shen Ningyuan stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go out for dinner."
Luying nodded, followed Shen Ningyuan and walked out of the yard.
When we arrived at the side hall, Dad and Mom were already seated, and my eldest brother and sister-in-law were sitting next to each other.
"Yuan'er is here, come quickly, come and sit next to your parents!"
As soon as Shen Ningyuan walked in, Shen Potian waved at her.
After everyone was seated, the second brother came late and sat next to Shen Ningyuan.
"Yuan'er, did you have a good rest this afternoon?"
As soon as he sat down, Shen Haoyue asked Shen Ningyuan with concern.
Shen Ningyuan nodded, "I had a good rest, thank you for your concern, second brother."
As soon as the voice fell, the green warbler behind him whispered, "Miss, how can you rest well? Obviously you didn't rest at all."
After hearing this, the expressions of Shen Potian, Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue changed at the same time.
"Yuan'er, why didn't you get enough rest? You haven't lived at home for a long time. Are you not used to it? Do you want Daddy to change your bed?"
"Yes, Yuan'er, if you have any problems, just tell me and I will find a solution for you!"
Compared to Shen Potian and Shen Haobai's earnest words, Shen Haoyue just said faintly, "Could it be that you are still thinking about that short-lived ghost?"
Everyone: “…”
Shen Haoyue's words made everyone present quiet down, staring at Shen Haoyue in astonishment.
Is it really appropriate to bring this up at this time?
Cui Jin was the first to react, and warned Shen Haoyue with a serious expression: "Second brother, don't bring up that!"
Shen Haoyue snorted coldly, "Humph, I'm going to bring up that topic anyway!"
As he spoke, Shen Haoyue looked at Shen Ningyuan beside him and asked faintly, "Sister, tell me, did what my second brother said just now offend you?"
Shen Ningyuan shook her head, “Don’t worry, second brother, you didn’t offend me.”
"I didn't get enough rest for other reasons."
"What's the reason?" Shen Haobai asked anxiously.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Song Yaner immediately interrupted Shen Haobai.
"Okay, no matter what the reason, Yuan'er didn't get enough rest. She'll go to rest after dinner. Anyway, Yuan'er can stay at home as long as she wants. There's plenty of time to rest!"
Cui Jin looked at Song Yaner with gratitude.
She knew that her eldest daughter-in-law was helping her cover up what happened in the afternoon.
After Song Yaner finished speaking, she stood up and picked up a piece of food for Shen Ningyuan with chopsticks.
"Yuan'er, eat more, these are all your favorites!"
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
The aunt and sister-in-law looked at each other and saw the same tacit understanding in each other's eyes.
Cui Jin felt relieved when he saw this scene.
She didn't want the Shen family's father and son to know that Shen Ningyuan and Cui Mingzhu were having a quarrel.
But at this time, Shen Haoyue glanced around and suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Where is Cui Mingzhu?"
Everyone was stunned and looked around suspiciously, then they noticed that Cui Mingzhu was not there.
Cui Jin looked a little nervous, and when she turned around, she happened to meet Shen Potian's puzzled gaze.
“Ajin, why didn’t Mingzhu come to eat? Are you feeling unwell?” Shen Potian asked with concern.
Cui Jin nodded in accordance with Shen Potian's words and made up an excuse to get rid of him.
"Yes, Mingzhu is not feeling well and is resting in her room. We don't need to worry about her. Let's eat first, or the food will get cold!"
After hearing this, everyone finally felt relieved and started to eat.
During the meal, Shen Ningyuan's bowl was filled with all kinds of dishes, almost piled up into a small mountain.
But she still had to bite the bullet and finish all the dishes.
Because all of this is love from family.
It had been a long time since she had a good meal with her family.
When she was halfway through the meal, Song Yaner suddenly thought of something and asked, "Dad, Mom, my brother-in-law just died for his country, and we brought my sister back. Will it be bad for my sister's reputation?"
As she said that, Song Yaner looked at Shen Ningyuan worriedly.
After hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Because they all knew that Song Yaner was telling the truth.
Rumors are the most cruel.
Who knows how badly the people outside will say about Shen Ningyuan.
When everyone was silent, Shen Haoyue gritted his teeth and said, "If I have to push my sister back to that tiger and wolf land because of these rumors, I don't want to!"
Shen Haoyue raised his head and stared at everyone.
She couldn't help but yell, "If any of you dare to force my sister to go back, I will sever ties with you and take my sister away, far away from this place!"
