The Shen family was very lively on New Year's Eve. Yan Bao was holding a pile of red envelopes in his arms, some from Prime Minister Shen, some from Madam Shen, and some from Big Brother Shen and Second Brother Shen.
Second Brother Shen had no money, so he borrowed from First Brother Shen, and gave all his monthly allowance to Yan Bao.
Second Brother Shen is the poorest.
Yan Bao's money-loving nature was fully exposed after she received the red envelope.
Madam Shen deliberately teased Yan Bao, saying that she would help put it away so that it would not be lost.
Yan Bao protected the red envelope and shook his head bluntly: [Adults only know how to bully children, saying they are helping to keep it, but in fact, it is like throwing meat buns at a dog, which will never come back!]
The corner of Shen Shoufu’s mouth twitched. He was not.
Madam Shen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Not only would she not use it, she would secretly add some as a dowry!
Brother Shen raised his eyebrows, it seemed like that.
Second Brother Shen clenched his fist secretly, looking at Madam Shen, hesitant to speak. He wanted to ask if his New Year’s money when he was ten years old, the New Year’s red envelope, could be kept by himself so that he would not lose it.
On New Year’s Eve, everyone watched firecrackers, which made crackling sounds.
Knowing that Yan Bao liked it, he also set off fireworks.
Yan Bao ate and drank a lot, and now she felt sleepy. She lay on Shen Shoufu's shoulder, looking at the fireworks that had more smoke than fireworks. The fireworks these days were not shocking at all. She had seen gorgeous fireworks.
That's beauty.
As he watched, Yan Bao's eyelids became heavy, and soon he fell asleep on Shen Shoufu.
She fell asleep, and the family of four breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Shoufu's family is also a large family, and there are many relatives visiting after the New Year, such as returning to her mother's home.
Yan Bao got up early in the morning and ate a bowl of dumplings, only then did he realize that he had missed last night's midnight snack.
The dumplings are good, and there are also shrimp ones.
Yan Bao liked to eat them. He ate one in three bites and ate six dumplings and spring rolls by himself.
After eating and drinking, Mrs. Shen changed Yan Bao into a beautiful red dress with furry piping, which made her look cute and pure. She looked like a glutinous rice dumpling and a snow doll.
The more Shen Shoufu looked at it, the more he liked it: “Let’s go, I’ll take you to your uncle’s house. Many cousins are there, you can play with them. If someone bullies you, remember to tell Daddy!”
Yan Bao nodded.
The family of five went to Mrs. Shen’s parents’ home.
Yan Bao regained consciousness and it was his first time here.
The main reason was that sometimes when we went out before, Yan Bao was either unconscious or nothing serious happened, so we didn’t take her out.
Yan Bao had been bullied at his grandmother's house before, so Mrs. Shen was not very willing to come, fearing that Yan Bao would not like it.
Come to think of it, children have bad memories and will forget things after a while.
Yan Bao didn’t.
She remembered that the reason she didn't like to come was because several cousins said she was dumb and didn't want to play with her. They also said she couldn't even speak and was definitely not a good child.
At that time, Yan Bao was still missing a bit of his soul.
Now her soul is sound and she is no longer stupid.
When he arrived at the Tang family, Yan Bao looked indifferent.
The Tang family entertained them warmly. Knowing that Chief Minister Shen doted on Yan Bao, they all greeted Yan Bao with a smile, and Yan Bao gave them a kind fake smile.
When he saw his grandmother, Yan Bao knew why Madam Shen didn't like to go back to her parents' home. It turned out that this grandmother was not her biological grandmother. Madam Shen's mother was a concubine. She died three years after giving birth to Madam Shen. She was raised by the former marquis's wife.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have married Chief Minister Shen.
After all, she is a concubine's daughter.
Speaking of which, when Mrs. Shen was young, she was fair-skinned, beautiful, well-educated and well-mannered, and was well taught by the old lady.
Shen Shoufu had a good impression of her, and when they later discussed marriage, when Shen Shoufu knew it was her, he agreed without a second thought.
In fact, there were other girls before, but Chief Minister Shen never expressed his feelings and just didn't like them. Until one banquet, he saw Madam Shen at that time and became interested in her.
Facts have proved that Chief Minister Shen's choice was right. After marrying him, Mrs. Shen took care of her husband and children and was devoted to him. The couple lived in harmony and lived a good life.
After the old marquis' wife passed away, the stepmother took charge, and apart from the etiquette, it was very easy to get around in the marquis' mansion.
The main reason was that Yan Bao almost died in the Marquis' Mansion this year, which hurt Madam Shen's heart.
If I didn't want to be criticized, I wouldn't come to pay New Year's greetings this year.
"Oh, Yanbao is here. I haven't seen him for a few months. He seems to have grown a lot taller. Come to grandma and let me see him!" Old Lady Tang smiled with a kind expression.
Yan Bao stood there without moving.
A hint of displeasure flashed across Old Madam Tang's eyes, but she still smiled indifferently: "This child is still shy. If he comes to play more often in the future, he will learn to get close to his grandmother."
Yan Bao almost rolled his eyes: [You damn old woman, I'm not coming. You're such a bad person. It's because of you that my parents and I are separated. That's why I don't have a grandmother like you.]
Madam Shen was shocked. She and her husband were estranged?
Mrs. Shen’s sky is about to fall.
Chief Minister Shen happened to be there too. He was estranged from his wife and husband, and it was the old woman who did it. Does she have the ability to do this?
Brother Shen has made up his mind, no one can destroy the relationship between my parents.
Second Brother Shen gritted his teeth secretly, what should he do if he wants to beat someone up?
Prime Minister Shen looked at Madam Shen’s bad complexion, and he whispered, “What’s wrong?”
Looking at her husband who cared about her, thinking of their twenty years of love, and then looking at this still handsome face, Mrs. Shen couldn't think of what had happened to drive them apart?
With a stabbing pain in her heart, Madam Shen almost couldn't help but ask Prime Minister Shen if he would become alienated from her?
Yan Bao looked at Madam Shen, who seemed uncomfortable, and cursed: "It's all the fault of that damn old woman who couldn't bear to see my parents doing well. She deliberately arranged for a beautiful maid to climb onto my father's bed while he was taking a nap."
Shen Shoufu almost choked on his tea.
