Chapter 83 I have to save my money to marry a wife
After receiving a positive answer, Shen Yixiao walked in with lazy steps.
In the living room, Ms. Wen was chattering non-stop: "You are already so old, and you still don't pay attention to your own affairs. Do you want to piss me and your father off to death?"
Shen Yixiao paused, stopped, and leaned lazily to the side to watch the show.
The man on the sofa sat upright, his profile clear and handsome, his voice gentle, and even a hint of a smile when you listened carefully: "You're exaggerating."
"Exaggeration? Do you know what people are saying? They say you're pure-hearted and devoted to Buddhism, and they even used some adjective." Wen Xianyun paused, put his hands on his hips, and thought for a while, but couldn't remember. "Anyway, it's not a good thing."
"You're almost thirty, and you don't have a woman around you. You never have!"
At this point, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Wen Xianyun's face: "If you have any unspeakable secrets and don't want to tell me, you can tell your dad. Medical care is so advanced now..."
"Mom..." Seeing that she was getting more and more outrageous, Shen Xubai couldn't help but interrupt her.
At this moment, a chuckle came from behind. Shen Yixiao chuckled and teased, "Do you need me to accompany you to see a doctor?"
Shen Xubai turned around, somewhat helplessly: "Why are you joining in the fun?"
That face was 50% similar to Shen Yixiao, with excellent bone structure, but there was a sense of maturity and stability between the brow bones, and the temperament was calm and indifferent, like an upright gentleman in ancient times, like pine and cypress, with the restraint and introversion after years of precipitation.
He was wearing a well-tailored dark suit with a simple white shirt underneath. The top button was undone and his tie was crisp, making him look dignified and steady.
Shen Xubai looked at Shen Yixiao and said slowly: "I heard that you had a fever. It seems that you are better now?"
Shen Yixiao leaned lazily on the sofa and replied muffledly: "Yeah."
Wen Xianyun finally got his chance: "You're back, where's my daughter-in-law?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Xubai's eyes.
Shen Yixiao: "ran away."
Wen Xianyun: “???”
"Then what are you doing here?"
Shen Yixiao raised his eyelids: "Didn't you ask me to come back?"
Wen Xianyun glared at him: "My daughter-in-law ran away, why didn't you go after her? Why did you come back?"
Shen Yixiao: "Is it illegal to go home for dinner?"
Wen Xianyun looked at this and that, and was furious: "Eat, eat shit!"
"Tell Mrs. Wang not to make lunch!"
Shen Zhongting, who was watching the financial news, finally looked up and defended his shortcomings: "You two only know how to make your mother angry."
Shen Yixiao: "Who started the fight first?"
Shen Zhongting snorted heavily: "Your mother is just concerned about you, do you want to try to find fault with her?"
Shen Yixiao turned his head and looked at Shen Xubai: "Brother..."
A faint arc appeared on the corner of Shen Xubai's lips. He first said to Shen Zhongting: "Okay, Dad, you kept complaining when Xiaoyi didn't come back, and you pretended to dislike him when he came back."
She looked at the angry Wen Xianyun again and feigned curiosity: "Xiao Yi has someone he likes? What kind of girl is it?"
Wen Xianyun's attention was instantly diverted. He recounted the story of meeting Cen Wan at No. 1 Mansion that day and added another sentence.
"That's the most beautiful and charming girl I've ever seen!"
Shen Yixiao raised his eyebrows proudly: "Of course, how could the one I like be bad?"
Shen Xubai spoke softly, giving him a fatal blow: "Does she like you?"
Shen Yixiao: "..."
grass!
"Mom, Little Antique didn't get to eat the stir-fried sea bass with green beans you made last time, so show him your cooking skills today!"
Wen Xianyun: "If you want to eat the food I cook, wait until you bring my daughter-in-law back."
Shen Yixiao: "I can't eat the food you cook when I bring my wife back."
"I finally found it, what if you poisoned it to death?"
Wen Xianyun picked up the pillow beside him and threw it at him: "With your mouth, my daughter-in-law might have run away because of you."
Shen Yixiao shrugged: "I still have some hope. Some people haven't even seen the shadow of their wives."
Shen Xubai, who was caught in a tragedy, said: "..."
The noise in the living room never stopped until Mrs. Wang announced that lunch was ready and everyone sat down at the dining table.
Halfway through the meal, Wen Xianyun suddenly announced a bombshell: "The Gu family wants to form a marriage alliance with ours. Your father and I won't force your relationship, but you must meet the person first. We've already agreed. Who will go?"
Shen Yixiao lazily picked up the rice in the bowl with chopsticks: "It's not me anyway."
Shen Xubai looked up and asked, "Mayor Gu's daughter?"
Wen Xianyun: "Yes, you know?"
A hint of helplessness appeared on Shen Xubai's face: "I remember Miss Gu seems to have not graduated from college yet, do you think it's suitable?"
The Gu family is in politics and is closely related to the Shen family. They have always had a good relationship, but due to various reasons, the Shen and Gu families have never interacted too closely in public. Why did they suddenly propose a marriage?
Shen Zhongting put down his chopsticks and said, "Mayor Gu brought this up on his own initiative, and I can't refuse him. Let's meet first, and we'll talk about whether it's a good fit later."
Shen Yixiao picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it in Shen Xubai's bowl, then said slowly, "It's okay to keep your teeth healthy. It's not impossible for an old cow to eat young grass. After all, there's an example here."
As soon as the words fell, Wen Xianyun's face flushed slightly, and Shen Zhongting was furious: "You're itching for trouble, right?"
Shen Yixiao: "Why are you so excited? I didn't mention anyone by name, so don't rush to identify yourself."
Wen Xianyun raised his hand and gave him a slap: "Eat your meal."
Shen Yixiao muddied the waters and shut up contentedly.
After a while, he looked at Shen Xubai again: "You didn't eat the dishes that Ms. Wen made last time, you have to compensate me for mental damages."
Shen Xubai was already used to his shabby look, and his expression remained unchanged: "How much do you want?"
Shen Yixiao: "How much do you think Ms. Wen's craftsmanship is worth?"
Shen Xubai took out his cell phone, and his bony fingers moved slightly, and a notification sound came from his phone.
Shen Yixiao glanced at his phone, his lips curled slightly: "Ms. Wen does have something."
Wen Xianyun knew exactly what he meant, and said angrily, "You're the CEO of the company now, and you still want to extort money from your brother? Do you have the nerve to do that?"
Shen Yixiao said confidently: "If he can't find a wife in his lifetime, won't he still have to rely on me for his old age?"
"Willn't everything then have to be left to my children?"
Wen Xianyun: "Don't you have any money to spend now?"
Shen Yixiao stretched out his tone, with the ending tone rising, and said with a carefree look: "I have to save my money for marrying a wife."
