Chapter 334 Aunt Lan, may I share in your good fortune
Song Jingyi recuperated at Shen Garden, and his men moved in with him.
The place was already bustling, and now Longyu, which was already bustling, has joined it.
The atmosphere at home is much better now.
It's like coming to the New Year early.
The courtyard was filled with laughter and cheerful chatter.
Lan Xinyan also likes Long Yu. This child is shrewd and intelligent when it comes to business, and he is sincere and guileless towards his friends.
He takes special care of his daughter, treating her like a younger sister.
She now has more time to care for her patients.
"Jingyi, drink this pigeon soup; it will help your wound heal," Lan Xinyan said, sitting down and applying hand cream. "I'll make you blackfish soup tomorrow; that'll be good too."
"Thank you, Aunt Lan," Song Jingyi said, taking a sip of soup. "It's too much trouble for you to make it yourself. My injury is nothing serious."
"Don't say that. I know whether your injury is serious or not," Lan Xinyan stopped him from continuing. "Whatever you eat is what you eat. Just listen to my arrangements."
"Okay." Song Jingyi lowered his head.
"Jingyi." Lan Xinyan glanced at him, pondering how to begin.
Song Jingyi put down his spoon. "Aunt Lan, please speak your mind."
“Jingyi, I always feel that our home in Beijing is too big, it feels empty and lifeless. Look, you're in Beijing right now, and you're all alone. Why don't you move in for a few days and liven things up?”
Song Jingyi thought she wanted to talk to him about Song Shuchen and his wife.
To everyone's surprise, she came up with such an awkward excuse to make herself feel less lonely.
"Aunt Lan,"
“Jingyi,” Lan Xinyan interrupted him as he was about to refuse, “you don’t need to stay longer. Just go back and stay for a few days during the New Year. You know, if there are more people during the New Year, the family will prosper in the coming year. Consider it Aunt Lan sharing in your good fortune.”
Song Jingyi's throat tightened and his eyes burned.
He nodded, then remained silent, quietly drinking the warm pigeon soup in his bowl.
Shen Buyu and Shen Yunqi each peeked out from around the corner.
“Actually, Mom doesn’t need to say that,” Shen Buyu said with a sly smile. “I only need to say one word, and my brother will come to our house for the New Year.”
"What did you say?" Shen Yunqi asked her.
"I told him: 'Don't you want to acknowledge me as your sister anymore? That's fine.'"
Shen Yunqi looked at his silly sister speechlessly, "What you did was a threat. Jingyi will still feel burdened. Only when Mom says this will he truly understand that our family welcomes him, not just because of you."
Shen Buyu suddenly realized, and looked at Shen Yunqi with admiration in her eyes.
Without hesitation, he gave two thumbs up, exclaiming, "Wow, you're amazing! Have you evolved to the point where you can see through appearances to the essence of things?"
“That’s right,” Shen Yunqi said smugly, tilting his head back and fixing his hair. “Wait, what do you mean by evolution? Shen Buyu, explain yourself clearly.”
"It was just an inappropriate choice of words, but you understand my heart." Shen Buyu laughed and ran away, afraid of being caught and beaten by her brother.
"Remain silent!"
Lan Xinyan and Song Jingyi looked over at the same time, then shook their heads with smiles, "These two kids."
"Aunt Lan, thank you." Song Jingyi looked at his younger sister's playful and lively figure as she walked away. "Thank you for raising Buyu so well."
"What are you saying, child?" Lan Xinyan chuckled. "You know that Buyu has been with me for so many years. Yunqi was a bit of a jerk before. If it weren't for Buyu by my side, my life would be very dull and boring."
It's not just that one person is good, but that both of them are good.
One plus one is greater than two.
Shen Zhiye and Shen Yanzhou were in the study.
He asked his son, "Does that mean Su Mo's family reported her missing and no one can be found?"
Was it truly impossible to find, or did someone point out this escape method?
“Yes,” Shen Yanzhou replied, “Jingyi’s people said that Song Shuchen took it away.”
Shen Zhiye nodded, "Then don't bother looking anymore, the person is probably gone."
He knew about Song Shuchen.
In such a situation, no one is spared.
The Song family, who were feared by no one in Beijing back then, did not make their reputation out of thin air.
"Jingxu means that the Meng family will not be spared either." If the Meng family hadn't been covering for Su Mo all along, she wouldn't have been so audacious as to hire someone to kill her.
If Jingyi hadn't been there that day, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Do as you say," Shen Zhiye said, taking a sip of pigeon soup and frowning as he looked at the bowl. "This watered-down soup is not quite right."
His wife made a separate soup for Jingyi, but only a small pot.
He smelled the aroma and, after much pleading, finally got his wife to serve him a bowl.
As a result, his bowl consisted of half a bowl of pigeon soup and half a bowl of plain water.
“Aunt Lan seems to be making fish soup again tomorrow,” Shen Yanzhou said slowly. “If you don’t let us know in advance, the diluted fish soup will taste even worse.”
“Hey, I’m an adult, why am I fighting with a child for food?” Shen Zhiye said, embarrassed. “I don’t like fish soup.”
“Oh, then I’ll ask Aunt Lan to make me an extra bowl,” Shen Yanzhou stood up. “I love fish soup, so I can finish it before heading back to Beijing.”
Shen Zhiye stared at his eldest son's retreating figure, lost in thought.
This must be Yanzhou.
I used to be quite quiet.
Now he not only talks more, but he also secretly insults people.
Luckily he's smart, otherwise he wouldn't have understood.
So annoying.
Where did Shen Yunqi go? I really want to bully the kid a bit, to find some balance.
She went on a date with her boyfriend without saying a word.
As they walked, they arrived at the commercial street where the two of them had first visited Suzhou.
"It smells so good!" Shen Buyu's mouth watered as he looked at the snacks.
"It smells good? Then let Brother Jingxu stand here with you and smell it for a while." Si Jingxu took her hand and walked to the entrance of a roasted pig's trotter shop.
Ignoring the strange looks from those around him, he stood there confidently, simply inhaling the aroma.
"Why can't I eat it?" The aroma was making her mouth water, but she couldn't eat it?
"You've forgotten the pain once the wound has healed," Si Jingxu glanced down at her, "How was the experience of acute gastroenteritis?"
Shen Buyu remembered and her tone softened, "But, but, that time it was just because I ate too much and too many different kinds of food that I got gastroenteritis, right?"
She can eat less.
“It could also be because some food we ate was unsanitary,” Si Jingxu insisted, “so everything here is on the blacklist.”
Chen Buyu looked at the pig's trotters, then at Si Jingxu.
Look at Si Jingxu, then look at the pig's trotters.
In the end, it all turned into a silent sigh.
"Alright, what do you want to eat? Just say the name, and Brother Jingxu will arrange something delicious and hygienic for you, okay?"
“Alright then,” Shen Buyu was willing to negotiate this time, “we’ll eat this pig’s trotter.”
Si Jingxu casually pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "Long Yu, do you know how to make roasted pig's trotters?"
Long Yu: "What the hell?"
"Buyu wants to eat roasted pig's trotters, but they're not hygienic. If you don't know how to make them, she should just wait until she gets back to Beijing."
