Chapter 158: Covering one's ears and stealing the bell
Shen Jiazhou leaned back in his chair and thought for a while before saying, "Yu Mingxue?"
Yu Mingxue said: "...So you just remembered me, your sister."
Then she repeated her original question: "Why is Wen Zhixia's son in the Shen family?"
Shen Jiazhou said: "It's just as you saw. I'm still working on it."
"That shouldn't be the case. Wen Zhixia couldn't possibly give the child to the Shen family. Brother Chen and Wen Zhixia kept the child a secret back then." Yu Mingxue was suddenly stunned, and her tone became even colder: "Where's Wen Zhixia?"
As soon as she saw the message, she called the number she hadn't contacted for a long time, but it showed that the number was invalid.
She suddenly felt uneasy, and this time she asked more urgently: "Shen Jiazhou, where is Wen Zhixia?"
Shen Jiazhou was silent for a while: "He died of illness, it should have been almost a year ago."
Wen Shuqiao said that Cancan stayed in the orphanage for more than half a year. Before going to the orphanage, he lived with Su Sisi for a period of time.
Therefore, Wen Zhixia’s death should have been at the beginning of the year or the end of last year.
Something seemed to fall from the other end of the phone, but it soon returned to normal. Her tone did not change, but she just hurriedly said, "Got it."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Shen Jiazhou didn't care. He put his phone on the armrest, started the car, and drove towards Shen's house.

Wen Shuqiao continued to fiddle with the computer while sitting at the dining table. Cancan changed into comfortable pajamas and nestled in her arms, her little mouth opening all the time.
"I'm telling you, Auntie, that horse has grown big. Uncle Xingyuan got on it in no time, and then he carried me up there. It was so much fun."
Wen Shuqiao hummed: "Are you having fun?"
"I'm so happy. Uncle Xingyuan also bought me a small cake and a peach-flavored milk. They are so delicious." Cancan couldn't help laughing when she thought of the small cake.
Suddenly I felt that there was a benefit in my aunt and uncle not going. I could secretly ask Uncle Xingyuan to buy him delicious food! My aunt and uncle didn't know yet~
The system suddenly asked: [What did you say to your aunt? ]
Cancan was stunned: [What did you say? ]
What did he say? He said nothing!
The system said: [Covering one's ears and stealing the bell. 】
Cancan glanced at her aunt's face guiltily. Fortunately, her aunt shouldn't have heard it just now, right?
After all, he just ate a small cake yesterday, and it’s not time for him to eat a small cake next time.
Wen Shuqiao waited for a while, but didn't hear any voice from the person in her arms. She looked down and saw Cancan laughing while resting his head on her arm.
She pinched his face lightly with her fingertips: "Why don't you say anything? You're just grinning."
Cancan sat up from her arms, turned sideways to hug her neck, buried his face in her shoulder, and said stickyly: "No."
Great! My aunt really didn’t hear it!
System: It’s too shameful to watch.
What a lackey, Long Aotian.
Wen Shuqiao put one hand around his waist and said, "I bought some fish tonight and I'll make steamed fish for you, okay?"
"Okay!" Cancan took back one hand and touched her belly: "Auntie, how did you know I want to eat steamed fish?"
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "I guessed it."
Cancan said happily: "Aunt, you are so smart, can I have steamed eggs tonight? I want to eat steamed eggs!"
Wen Shuqiao hummed: "Okay, I'll do it for you."
Cancan licked his lips: "Auntie, can I watch cartoons?"
He was tired from playing today and just wanted to watch some cartoons and have a good rest.
Wen Shuqiao glanced at the time. She would have to start cooking dinner soon. It was about the same time that Cancan watched cartoons on weekdays.
She said, "Okay, go by yourself."
After getting the answer, Cancan couldn't wait to get off Wen Shuqiao. He had already turned on the TV at home. Milk and Cake were originally curled up at Wen Shuqiao's feet. When they saw Cancan going out to play, they also stood up and followed him happily.
Cancan looked down at them and asked, "What should we watch today?"
He doesn't want to watch the dog team today, so he lets the dog team take a break today.
Wen Shuqiao watched him sitting on his little stool carefully selecting tonight's "blockbuster". She smiled and retracted her gaze, but she caught a glimpse of something in the corner of her eye. When she looked again, she saw a black coat on the floor-standing clothes hanger at the entrance. It was the one that Shen Jiazhou forgot to take away.
After looking for a while, she withdrew her gaze, looked at the computer on the desk, pursed her lips, and continued to work silently.

When Shen Jiazhou returned to the old house, it was dinner time. He walked into the restaurant, but he didn't expect that there was more than one person there today. He took a quick look and found that everyone who was there yesterday was there today.
Oh, in addition to the Shen Fang family, there is also the cousin-in-law from yesterday.
They didn't seem to expect Shen Jiazhou to come back, and they all stood at the dining table in a daze for a moment.
Only Mr. Shen said happily: "Jia Zhou is back, go and ask the kitchen to make a few more dishes that Jia Zhou likes."
Shen Jiazhou walked over, pulled out an empty stool and sat down. The butler quickly served the dishes and asked, "Master, do you want juice or red wine?"
"Juice." Shen Jiazhou replied casually, then picked up the vegetables closest to him with chopsticks and chewed them slowly. However, they were not as delicious as the cabbage cooked by Wen Shuqiao.
He picked up another piece of fish. Wen Shuqiao also bought a fish today, saying that Cancan had been talking about wanting to eat fish for the past few days. She picked a fat sea bass and planned to steam it for Cancan tonight.
Have they eaten at this time?
He put down his chopsticks. The food on the table was tasteless. If he had known this, he would have eaten it shamelessly before coming back.
After all, looking at these people now is a bit disgusting.
Mr. Shen said, "Don't worry, the kitchen will be ready soon and make you your favorite dish."
Shen Jiazhou glanced at the silent group of people and hummed, "Okay."
Mr. Shen narrowed his eyes with a smile, and he said, "How long has it been since we sat at home and had a meal together as a family? I should have called Shen Fang back earlier."
The person sitting closest to him was Shen Jiazhou's cousin. She said, "Grandpa, we also want to spend more time with you, but some people don't want to, and there's nothing we can do about it."
She was still angry about the slap her husband received yesterday. After Shen Jiazhou and the others left, half of her face was swollen. She went to the hospital today to get some medicine, and the doctor said she needed to rest for a while.
It can be seen that Shen Jiazhou really wanted to kill him!
Shen Jiazhou just glanced at her lazily and said in a toneless voice: "If I come back every day, will you still have such a good life?"
He looked at the cousin and said, "Don't add fuel to the fire. I'll listen if I'm in a good mood, but it's another story if I'm not."
My cousin kept scolding me for a long time, but in the end she was so angry that she could only stuff food into her mouth.
Shen Jiazhou, so crazy!
