Chapter 1138: Panic
For seven days, the Shen family was busy settling in, dealing with the farms and shops returned by the court, and interacting with close relatives. To my surprise, no one asked about what happened that day.
After being busy for so many days, Mrs. Wu can finally take a breath.
"By the way, sister-in-law, we have been back for so many days, why hasn't Sister Lan come back to visit us?" Lin suddenly remembered and asked casually.
Shen Qingqian, who was drinking water, almost choked. She coughed twice before saying, "Aunt, there is something I haven't told you."
She was really embarrassed and didn't know how to start.
Wu looked at her with a frown, "Why don't you talk to me?"
Speaking of Sister Lan, she remembered that she wanted to ask when Shen Qingqian returned from the capital, but because Shen Qingqian was always busy, she didn't have the chance to speak. Moreover, she thought that if Shen Qingqian didn't say anything, it meant that she didn't go to see Shen Qinglan, so she didn't ask after that.
Shen Qingqian pondered for a moment, lowered her eyes and said: "Big sister, she, she doesn't want to see us"
Everyone present was no fool. Seeing Shen Qingqian's expression, and considering that the Shen family had been back in Beijing for so long and no one from Shen Qinglan or Rongguang Marquis's Mansion had come to visit, they could guess a little.
Mrs. Lin was a little embarrassed and dryly advised Mrs. Wu, "Sister-in-law, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. We don't need to force it."
Liang didn't say anything because she knew that anything she said at this moment would be redundant.
Seeing Wu's slightly pale face, Shen Qingqian thought for a moment and then conveyed everything she and Sheng Ze heard at Rongguang Marquis' Mansion that day.
"Eldest sister also has her own difficulties, there is no need to be sad, aunt." Shen Qingqian sighed in her heart, but still gave some advice.
Wu forced herself to cheer up and smiled. "Well, what's the big deal? A daughter who's married off is like spilled water. She doesn't care about our family anymore, so let her be!"
After saying that, she left after saying that she wanted to go back and rest.
The others looked at each other, shook their heads and sighed, and soon dispersed.
Liang took Shen Qingqian and her brother back to the courtyard of the third room. On the way, she couldn't help but sigh: "Sister Lan was not like this before, why is she like this now..."
"People's hearts are fickle." Shen Zhe suddenly said, causing Shen Qingqian and Liang to turn their heads to look at him.
Shen Zhe continued to walk forward with an unchanged expression. The little guy didn't know where he had learned the vicissitudes of life. "Everyone will change when faced with a sudden change. Just like my sister, she used to be a little bit stubborn in front of our parents, but now..."
He paused and didn't continue.
Nowadays, no one would object even if someone said that Shen Qingqian was the spiritual pillar of the Shen family.
Liang smiled and touched Shen Zhe's head, "Brother Zhe is becoming more and more sensible now."
Now, there are only women, children and young kids left in the Shen family. If they want to prosper, they have to rely on the younger ones like Zhe Ge'er.
Shen Qingqian also pinched Shen Zhe's face, "I didn't expect you still remember your childhood. Tell me, what do you remember?"
"Don't pinch my face!" Shen Zhe slapped her hand away and said angrily, "I've told you many times, no pinching my face!"
Shen Qingqian did it on purpose, and laughed: "I am your sister, what's wrong with pinching me? Do you want to save it for your future wife?"
This little baby's face is so chubby. If you don't pinch it a few times while he's still young, you won't have the chance to regret it later.
Shen Zhe ran away angrily, Liang laughed behind him, and Shen Qingqian also laughed freely.
At the same time, people in Shengjing were in panic because the Northwest Army suddenly took over the palace and Shengze had not yet ascended the throne.
