Chapter 132 Someone is coming
"Mom, someone is coming." Wan Ersao was running in the yard chasing Xiao Fubao, sweating all over. She looked up and saw two carriages parked at the door.
The gate was wide open at this time, and one could see the people getting off the carriage at a glance.
The person who got out of the car in front looked familiar to Wan Ersao.
Old Mrs. Wan was in the house persuading Shen to go out with her. Shen had just recovered from a serious illness and was still a little thin. Old Mrs. Wan took advantage of the past few days to ask Second and Third Sisters Wan to make her a new set of clothes using the fabrics at home, and the money for it was deducted from the one hundred taels of silver.
At this time, Shen was wearing new clothes that had just been made. Shen was originally good-looking, but she had always been despised as a jinx. Whenever she met people, she always kept her head down and dared not look others in the eye.
Although Shen has been married into the Shen family for so many years, the villagers have no clear impression of Shen's appearance.
When Old Lady Wan saw Shen, who had packed up neatly, she felt a little pity for her.
"Look at what a good girl you are. The Shen family is really guilty. They didn't cherish such a virtuous and capable daughter-in-law, but tortured her. They deserve it. My daughter, you will be free from now on. You don't have to live by others' faces. I think your eldest brother is a capable person. You will have good days ahead of you."
There was a glimmer of anticipation in Shen's eyes. It was only after she woke up that she found out that her brother who had been missing for many years had been found. Although she had not seen what Yuan'er looked like now, she thought he was even more handsome. When she picked him up, Shen Jinyuan was already a handsome child. Later, after being raised in the Shen family for many years, he became more and more handsome.
For Shen, the news of Shen Jinyuan's return was undoubtedly the best news she had heard in these years.
This news made Shen feel much more energetic. She originally thought that even if she escaped from the hell of the Shen family, she would be alone and helpless and bear the label of a jinx, and her future life would be difficult. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden turn of events and her Yuaner came to find her.
Hearing the call from Mrs. Wan and Mrs. Wan's second wife, she quickly got down from the kang, patted Shen on the shoulder and said, "Girl, sit down first. I'll go take a look."
Shen nodded gently.
"Who's here?" Old Mrs. Wan asked Wan Ersao while holding the door frame of the main room.
There was not only Wan Ersao in the yard, but also a few boys playing around.
Seeing the carriage at this time, everyone stood in the yard and leaned their heads to look outside.
At this time, Shen Jinyuan was followed by a servant, who got off the carriage carrying large and small bags in his hands.
Old Mrs. Wan’s eyesight was still good, and she could tell at a glance that it was Shen Jinyuan.
She quickly stepped over the threshold and came out.
“Hey, is this Mr. Shen?”
Before Shen Jinyuan could say anything, the servant behind him shouted, "This is the county magistrate, you must not be rude."
Shen Jinyuan turned his head and glared at the servant, and scolded him harshly: "Stop talking, get out."
The servant's face froze, thinking that the new master was really moody, but he didn't dare say anything else. He took the things in his hands into the house and quickly left the yard.
However, at this time, everyone in the Wan family finally knew Shen Jinyuan's identity. Where had Old Lady Wan seen the county magistrate? She was so scared that her legs went weak.
Seeing that Old Lady Wan was about to kneel down, Shen Jinyuan quickly grabbed Old Lady Wan.
"Madam, you don't have to be so polite. Today, I am just a junior. You don't have to be nervous. Just do as you should."
Old Mrs. Wan quickly led everyone into the house. The women of the Wan family did not dare to approach the main room at this time and they all crowded into the west wing. The men of the Wan family lowered their heads and followed Shen Jinyuan into the house.
"Sir, I did not know your true identity before, so I apologize for any offense. Please forgive me."
As Old Lady Wan spoke, she knelt down. Boss Wan and the others quickly followed her lead and prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to breathe.
Shen Jinyuan stood up and helped Old Lady Wan up personally.
"Madam, I told you that I am not the county magistrate today. I am my eldest sister's brother. I wonder how my eldest sister is doing now?"
Shen Jinyuan didn’t see Shen, and he felt a little worried.
At this time, a trembling voice came from the door of the east room.
"Yuan'er? Are you Yuan'er?"
Shen held onto the door frame of the east room and looked at Shen Jinyuan with tears in her eyes.
The thin and handsome boy in Shen's memory has now grown into a handsome young man, exuding elegance in his every move.
Shen Jinyuan raised his head and looked at Shen, then quickly walked past the crowd.
"Eldest sister! Yuan'er is late and has caused you suffering."
Shen Jinyuan rushed in front of Shen, knelt down, and knocked his head heavily to the ground.
Shen covered her face with her hands, tears streaming down her face. She squatted down and helped Shen Jinyuan up. The brother and sister hugged each other and cried bitterly, their crying made people cry.
Old Mrs. Wan had always felt sorry for Shen, and when she saw this scene, she couldn't stop her tears from flowing. Fortunately, Old Mrs. Wan was very experienced in dealing with people.
She wiped her tears with a handkerchief and stepped forward to separate the two.
"Sir, your elder sister has just recovered and is not easily overwhelmed by joy or sorrow. You and your brother will never be separated again. There is a long time to come. How about we sit down and reminisce about the past?"
Shen Jinyuan then let go of Shen and helped his eldest sister sit on the chair.
"Second brother, hurry up and ask your wife to make some tea. Third brother, ask your wife to make some hot water to wipe Shen's face. Hurry up."
Old Mrs. Wan gave a series of instructions, and everyone in the Wan family got busy.
The family who were originally preparing to travel had their plans completely disrupted by Shen Jinyuan's sudden visit.
Shen Jinyuan looked at Shen carefully and felt that his eldest sister was still too thin. Although her complexion was much better than half a month ago, her body was still very frail.
"Sister, I came here this time to take you to live with me in Xuanning County. I wonder if you are willing?"
Shen Jinyuan looked at Shen nervously with his dark eyes.
He was afraid that Shen would not agree, and he was very nervous because he wanted to take care of his elder sister.
There were still tears in Shen's eyes, but a smile on her face as she nodded gently.
Shen Jinyuan's eyes immediately burst into childlike joy. He could finally take care of his sister.
But Shen also had concerns.
"Yuan'er, I am an unlucky person. Will my visit to your house bring you any trouble? And I just heard that you have become an official, and even a county magistrate. I am so happy that you have made a difference. It is worth your parents' support for you."
"Eldest sister, who said you are an unlucky person? You are my savior. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be who I am today. You are a noble person, the noble person of the magistrate of Xuanning County."
At this time, Mrs. Wan was standing aside and thinking, Xuanning County? Isn't that where they are now?
Only then did Old Lady Wan realize that when Xiao Fubao said that Shen was good, he did not just mean that Shen was a good person, but that Shen had such a capable younger brother.
My Lord, the county magistrate! In a place far away from the border, the county magistrate is the most important official.
