Chapter 193 Calculation
After she finished speaking, she took off a bracelet from her wrist and placed it on the table: "This was originally intended for my daughter-in-law. Now that my granddaughter has become my daughter-in-law, I will give this family heirloom to you."
Shen Sangsang knew that the bracelet was Mrs. Shen’s dowry.
Because when she was serving her before, she treasured this thing very much.
Because this thing is not only her dowry, but more importantly it is her mother's relic.
Shen Sangsang looked at the thing on the table and didn't reach out to take it for a moment, because she knew clearly that this thing was very valuable, how could she accept it casually?
Just as she was still sitting there without moving, Shen Yuehuai looked at her again. This time he spoke in a slightly cold voice: "Keep it."
Hearing her words, her body moved twice. She reached out and slowly picked up the agate bracelet from the table.
"Take it with you."
Then, Shen Yuehuai said again.
Shen Sangsang didn't move much after hearing what Shen Yuehuai said. Of course, no one forced her, and they just waited for her to make her own decision.
Finally, Shen Sangsang put the bracelet on her wrist.
The bracelet fit her hand perfectly, neither too big nor too small, the perfect size.
Shen Yuehuai took a look and said nothing more.
Shen Sangsang whispered to Madam Shen again: "Thank you for the bracelet. I will protect it well."
She said this.
After hearing this, Mrs. Shen said: "It has become yours."
After the servants served all the dishes, the atmosphere was still quite harmonious. Shen Yuehuai whispered, "Let's eat."
After that, everyone had their meal in silence.
After dinner in the evening, Shen Sangsang followed Shen Yuehuai back to the bedroom. In the bedroom, Shen Sangsang took off the bracelet on her hand and handed it to him.
Shen Yuehuai naturally stood in front of her, their figures one taller than the other.
Shen Yuehuai asked: "What do you mean?"
His voice was as calm as water.
Shen Sangsang said: “This thing is very valuable. I’m afraid it will break if I hold it in my hands.”
"Didn't you understand what I said before?"
When Shen Sangsang heard his words, she subconsciously raised her head and looked at him.
Seeing her expression, Shen Yuehuai said, "I should have explained everything about this bracelet clearly before." He paused for a few seconds after you said this. After a few seconds, he said, "If you don't like it, then knock it off."
Shen Sangsang's hand holding the bracelet tightened quietly.
Shen Yuehuai's eyes passed over her face. He unbuttoned his shirt. After unbuttoning, he took off the glasses on his nose that he only wore when working. He rubbed his eyebrows twice with his fingers.
Shen Sangsang stood in the dark and looked at him in the yellow light and shadow. She saw a trace of indifference and fatigue.
So, Shen Sangsang finally took the bracelet back.
After taking it back, Shen Sangsang whispered, “I’ll go get some hot water for Uncle Shen to take a bath.”
She spoke with her eyes lowered.
And now her words "Uncle Shen" were like a barrier, once again dividing and blocking the relationship between the two.
He went from being her husband to being the elder she respected.
How could Shen Yuehuai not know her little tricks? He just thought they were ridiculous.
However, he didn't laugh, but said coldly: "Whatever."
He gave these two words.
When Shen Sangsang heard these two words, she could naturally hear the coldness in them, but she seemed not to notice these coldness, and just walked straight towards the bathroom.
After arriving in the bathroom, Shen Sangsang began to fill the bathtub with water.
Shen Yuehuai, who placed the watch on the table, paused for a moment and looked towards the bathroom.
During those few seconds, his expression was very cold and subtle. Soon, he turned around and went into the cloakroom.
After about ten minutes, Shen Sangsang had prepared the water. She walked up to him and whispered, “Uncle Shen, the water is ready for you.”
When Shen Yuehuai heard this, he responded coldly again.
How many days has it been since he last touched her? Shen Sangsang didn't count, but it seemed like a long time.
Ever since the incident between her and Zhou Shiran, he seemed to have stopped touching her.
Is he thinking she's dirty? Or is he just not interested in her anymore?
Shen Sangsang thought about the two possibilities, which one was more likely.
And tonight there was no need for any doubt, the two of them lay on the same bed, each sitting on the bed, doing their own things, without much conversation, until the bedside lamp was turned off and the room became dark again.
A bed is a galaxy.
…
The next morning, the servants were packing up in the villa's hall.
Shen Sangsang came down from upstairs and saw the servant uncle downstairs carrying a small package outside.
Shen Sangsang didn't know what this was for, so she looked at the servant.
Seeing her puzzled look, the servant said softly, "Madam, it's the old lady who's going back to South City."
Shen Sangsang didn’t say anything when she heard this.
At this time, Shen Yuehuai also came downstairs. He naturally saw some packages in the living room. He glanced at the servant and asked, "Whose is this?"
When the servant heard his question, he quickly replied, "The old lady is going back to South City. She asked us to put her things away early in the morning."
As soon as the servant finished answering, Madam Shen came down from the stairs. As she walked, she said, "That's right, Yue Huai. The weather here is still not very suitable for me, so it's better for me to go back to South City early."
As she was saying these words, someone had already walked downstairs. After reaching the bottom floor, she continued, "It just so happens that I've found a Chinese medicine doctor over there. I heard he's very famous for his health care. I might as well go back and have him take my pulse and heal these useless old bones."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuehuai asked softly, "Aren't you staying any longer?"
As a son, he naturally wanted to keep her.
Madam Shen smiled faintly and said, "No need. Chang'an is nice, but it's not a place to stay for long."
Shen Yuehuai added, "There are still many places here that you haven't visited. When we have time, we will take you there for a walk."
As you get older, you should naturally try to walk as much as possible. If one day you can't move in bed, it will be difficult to move an inch. However, Mrs. Shen still shook her head: "Forget it, let's go back to South City as soon as possible. The weather there is comfortable."
Seeing that she refused again and again, he, as her son, naturally did not try to keep her.
After all, three times is the limit. He just said, "Then I'll let Xu Jie take you back on a special plane. It will be easier for you."
Old Madam Shen did not refuse this.
At this time, Xijie came down from upstairs and said, "Old Madam, don't you want to recuperate? Why don't you let Sangsang go back with you to recuperate? She didn't take good care of herself after her last miscarriage."
There was a hint of worry on Xijie's face.
When Shen Sangsang heard Xijie's words, her eyes moved slightly.
As for Old Lady Shen, she seemed to have just thought of something about Xijie's suggestion. She looked at Shen Sangsang for a long time, then looked at Shen Yuehuai: "Xijie is right. That doctor is not bad. Why don't we let Sangsang go back with me and let the doctor take her pulse? That doctor is very difficult to hire. I heard that even a millionaire can't afford to pay him. He was able to come to our house this time because of a favor."
