When the carriage arrived at the entrance of Shenjia Village, we saw many people from Shenjia Village standing there, but most of them were young people and children.
Following Shen Baiqian's command, the villagers all shouted, "Warmly welcome Chen Zhen back to Shenjia Village! Warmly welcome Chen Zhen back to Shenjia Village! Warmly welcome Chen Zhen back to Shenjia Village!"
After the slogan was shouted, a burst of trumpets sounded and gongs and drums rose to the sky.
After a burst of noise, Chen Chen raised his voice and said to everyone, "Thank you everyone, today our Shen family is hosting a banquet for everyone to eat. The food is all Mo Yuexuan's signature dishes. Everyone, please enjoy your meal. Later, Ah Shu and I will go to toast everyone."
As soon as he finished speaking, cheers broke out from the crowd.
After the cheers, Shen Baiqian raised his voice and said to Chen Chen, "Brother Chen, let's go back and wait for the feast to start. You must bring our brothers and sisters-in-law from Shenjia Village to toast, so that we can also get a taste of the talent of scholars. Don't you agree?"
"Yes!" Everyone behind him shouted loudly.
"I will definitely go. We'll meet at the threshing ground at noon." Chen Chen said with a loud laugh.
Afterwards, Chen Zhen said goodbye to everyone and took He Jinshu home.
He Jinshu, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but rub his temples when he thought about meeting so many people.
He thought the people in Shenjia Village were strange, as they could just take it for granted that they could join in the mischief with Chen Zhen.
The carriage arrived at the Shen family's house, and the whole family was waiting at the door to welcome Shen Chen's arrival.
When Chen Zhen saw everyone in his family standing at the door, he waved his hands happily and shouted, "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, Second Brother-in-law, Xiao Xiangxiang, I'm back."
When everyone in the Shen family heard his shout, they all looked at him with smiles, waiting for him to drive over in his carriage.
Only Shen Xiang shouted loudly: "Uncle San, you are finally back. I missed you so much."
Chen Chen parked the carriage, then jumped out and picked up Shen Xiang. After kissing her, he said, "Third Uncle must miss Xiangxiang too."
After the kiss, he put Shen Xiang down, then turned around and went to the carriage to pick up He Jinshu.
Shen Xiang was about to kiss Shen Zhen back, but he put her down. So she turned around and looked at Shen Dasao a little confusedly. "Why didn't Third Uncle kiss me? He wasn't like this before."
Mrs. Shen touched her confused little face, smiled and said nothing.
After the carriage stopped, He Jinshu stood up, lifted the curtain and prepared to get out of the carriage.
At this time, Chen Zhen just turned around and returned to the car, so he picked the person up and carried him down.
When everyone in the Shen family saw this situation, they looked at each other: Is this scholar so weak?
He Jinshu was carried down from the carriage in front of everyone in the Shen family. A flash of embarrassment flashed across his face. Why did he forget to discuss this matter with Chen Chen just now?
But now is not the time to regret. After he stood firm, he straightened his clothes, then made a scholar's salute to Shen's mother and the others, and then said: "I respectfully pay my respects to my father and mother, my eldest brother and his wife, and my second brother and his husband."
Mother Shen and Father Shen looked at each other when they heard this name. Changing the name after only three days? Did Brother Zhen win him over?
"Jinshu, you don't have to be polite. We don't have so many rules in our family. Just get along with each other normally." Old Man Shen said with a smile.
He Jinshu stood up and said respectfully to Father Shen, "Okay, thank you, Dad."
"Let's go, don't stay at the door anymore, let's go in, boss, help your brother pull the carriage." Mother Shen said with a smile.
After hearing this, Brother Shen walked forward, took control of the carriage, and then walked into the yard.
As they walked, Big Brother Shen secretly asked Chen Chen who was walking beside him: "How is it, has Mr. He not bullied you these days?"
"Brother, what are you thinking? Ah Shu will never bully me."
When Brother Shen heard this, he snorted in his heart. Whenever he bullied you, you automatically ignored him.
However, seeing that the performance of this young scholar today was quite satisfactory, Brother Shen did not discuss this topic with Chen Zhen anymore.
After pulling the carriage into the house, Brother Shen and Shen Zhen took out the gifts they brought from the carriage.
After everyone sat down in the main hall, Chen Chen began to distribute gifts to the family members, saying as he distributed them, "These are all gifts that Ah Shu personally bought in town. Dad and Mom, please take a look and see if you like them."
Mother Shen looked at the set of exquisite and beautiful silver jewelry in her hand, thinking that this little scholar was pretty good, and the gift she bought was thoughtful. Although it might be her own son's money, since he was willing to cooperate and do the work to save face, then her son's money was not wasted.
Thinking of this, Shen's mother smiled and said: "This set of silver jewelry is very beautiful, I like it very much, Jinshu is thoughtful."
"As long as mother likes it." He Jinshu said calmly.
The other members of the He family looked at their gifts and expressed their gratitude to He Jinshu with a smile.
Brother Shen fiddled with his doll and asked He Jinshu curiously, "He Xiucai, where did you buy this doll? I've never seen anyone selling this in town."
The puppet is a mechanical doll with a traction line next to it. By pulling the traction line to different places, the puppet can do different actions, such as kneeling on one knee, serving tea, standing with hands on hips, standing on one leg, raising arms horizontally and then upwards, etc.
For Brother Shen, who has loved tinkering with strange gadgets since childhood, this gift undoubtedly touched his heart.
After giving out the gifts, Chen Chen sat down next to He Jinshu. When he heard the question from Second Brother Shen, he proudly said:
"Ashu bought this for you from an old carpenter. At first, the old man was reluctant to sell it, but after Ashu explained the principle of how it was made, he gave it to Ashu. But Ashu didn't want it for nothing, and he still gave him the silver."
