Chapter 459: The Abacus is clacking



"Dad, Mom~"

Lin Cuicui was sitting on the couch. There was a small stove at her feet, on which tea was boiling.

"Husband, why do I seem to hear the third brother's voice?"

Shen Changshan pricked up his ears and said, "No, Madam, you must be hallucinating. The third brother is fooling around somewhere right now!"

Lin Cuicui listened again but didn't hear anything, and nodded, "I must have heard it wrong!"

"Pah pah pah~"

Not long after, their door was slammed shut. The two maids outside looked at Shen Yuanzhou embarrassedly, worried that they would be punished later.

"Dad, Mom, it's me, open the door!"

Shen Qiangshan and Lin Cuicui were startled and sat up from the couch. The couple looked at each other and found that it was really the third child!

"Squeak~"

"Yuanzhou, why are you back?"

Shen Yuanzhou looked at his parents who were dressed in rich and luxurious clothes, and then looked at his own tattered and patched cotton jacket. Deep down, he felt like a poor relative who came to beg for money.

"Come on, come in and talk."

Lin Cuicui pulled Shen Yuanzhou in and didn't notice Ji Liu and Wen San behind them.

Shen Changshan looked at them and said gently, "You two are Yuan Zhou's friends, right? Come in and sit down."

"Thank you, uncle."

Ji Liu and Wen San have calmed down at this moment. They know that there is not a single truth in Shen San's mouth.

You say your family is poor, but how can they be poor?

Although our family is indeed a little bit worse than theirs, we are not poor at all, okay?

Still so stingy along the way!

"Third brother, why are you back? Look at you, you have lost a lot of weight. Did you not eat well?"

Faced with his mother's concern, Shen Yuanzhou was very pleased and a little embarrassed.

"Mom, I'm fine. I can take care of myself."

Lin Cuicui looked like the other two teenagers. Although her clothes were comparable to the third brother's, they were too thin.

How can you not be cold if you walk outside in the middle of winter wearing only two sets of clothes?

"Mother will talk to you later. I'll have someone prepare clothes and food for you first."

"Okay, okay, thank you, sister. You are so beautiful, you don't look like Shen San's mother."

Of the five people in the room, the other three were stunned and looked at Ji Liu.

Lin Cuicui covered her mouth and laughed, "You are the third brother's friend, right? You can't call me sister, you have to call me aunt."

Lin Cuicui has been eating well recently and has nothing to worry about. She looks like she is in her twenties.

"Okay, it's freezing outside, you guys sit here first. The kitchen made mutton soup today, you can drink some to ward off the cold later."

"Thank you, auntie." Ji Liu and Wen San thanked her in unison.

Shen Yuanzhou had a complicated expression. After his father and mother left, he put his hands on his hips and looked at Ji Liu and Wen San.

"Hey, hey, hey, what the hell are you two doing here? Forget it, I don't want to know."

"Tell me quickly, is your home also in the capital? I'll have someone send you back."

Ji Liu shook his head. "We are sworn brothers. How can you chase me away?"

"That's right, and my aunt invited us to eat mutton soup. If you drive us away now, she will be sad."

Shen Yuanzhou: ...

This kind of person who hangs out in the underworld, wouldn't he become a deadbeat?

"Okay, then leave as soon as you finish eating."

Ji Liu looked at him with a puzzled look on his face, "No, brother, we should share the blessing together."

"If you don't leave, I can take you to my house to stay for a while."

His parents are the most nagging and speak in literary language all day long. If Shen San can stand it, it is not impossible for him to live in the Wen family forever.

"Thank you!"

"Hey, we're all brothers, why thank you so much?"

Shen Yuanzhou sat down, picked up the teapot on the stove, and poured a cup of hot water for each of them.

"Hurry up and drink some hot water, otherwise both of your heads will be frozen."

I hope that after they come to their senses, they will say less outrageous things. I don’t know where those two arrogant and cold boys have gone.

Soon Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui came in, followed by two little maids holding a few cloaks in their hands.

"Actually, it's already ready. Third brother, bring your two friends with me."

"I know, mother."

He gave them the cloaks and took them to the dining room where food and a brazier were already prepared.

Bubbles were bubbling on the small stove, and a pot of milky and rich mutton soup was cooking on it.

"Third Uncle!"

Shen Mochi trotted in from outside, ran straight past Shen Yuanzhou, stopped in front of Wen San, raised his head and asked:

"Are you my third uncle? Why is he getting more and more handsome?"

Shen Yuanzhou: ...

Wen San: Did this kid recognize the wrong person?

Xu Taohua, who was still outside, uh, this kid, could his third uncle really become like that?

Wen San chuckled, "Then look carefully, am I your third uncle?"

Shen Mochi walked to Shen Yuanzhou's side and hugged his feet, "No, this is my third uncle."

Shen Yuanzhou pinched his little face, "Really? Third Uncle almost thought that you didn't recognize me because I hadn't been back for so long."

Shen Mochi shook his head, "I was just teasing Uncle San."

Shen Changshan pulled his eldest grandson over and said, "Okay, Achi, don't disturb your third uncle and the others. Let them eat first."

"Okay, then Uncle San will tell me a story later."

"Okay, it's a deal."

Ji Liu was still here, so Shen Yuanzhou didn't ask what had happened in his family during this period.
