125.Being a Guest
The third aunt is dressed in silk and satin, which even reflects light when she walks around. She has a neat bun on her head and beautiful silver jewelry. She looks like a lady from a wealthy family.
After listening to Shen Wanni's words, I felt extremely comfortable, "Xiao Nizi just knows how to talk."
These words seemed to have some meaning, but Shen Ruoxi didn't hear it. These people were just strangers to her, not to mention that the original owner had not harmed them, so there was no need to please them.
Shen Wanni glanced at Shen Ruoxi secretly. In the past, Shen Ruoxi would be unhappy if her third aunt praised her, but now she doesn't react. Why has Shen Ruoxi changed so much?
Shen Ruohan couldn't sit still, "Third Aunt, is there anything we can do for you?"
The third aunt then looked at Shen Ruoxi and the others seriously, a little surprised in her eyes. The four of them seemed to be well-dressed. The eldest brother's family was prosperous?
Impossible. Shen Ruoxi was born to collect debts. How could she have money to buy good clothes if her family's goods were not good enough?
"Ruohan, aren't you tired of working at home every day? Come to Third Aunt's house and do whatever you need to do. Sit down and take a rest."
"I..." Shen Ruohan hesitated, and finally gave in, "Then let me play for a while."
The third aunt's eyes moved to Shen Ruoxi, "Ruoxi, you are getting older, have you found your husband's family?"
Shen Ruoxi said without interest, "I found her, but people don't like me. I have no choice. I might become an old girl."
Xu Qinglan and the other three looked at Shen Ruoxi with helpless and a little funny eyes.
Third aunt, "..."
The second aunt couldn't help but said, "Ruoxi should change her temper. She can't always let her temper run wild. Marry a virtuous wife. You must be virtuous."
Shen Ruoxi looked at her second aunt. This was the first time she had looked at this woman, and it was also the first time she had spoken to her.
She recalled that the original owner once pulled all the clothes washed by the second aunt to the floor, including the sheets and quilts. From then on, the second aunt hated the original owner.
Since it was the original owner who did something wrong, Shen Ruoxi endured it and said, "What the second aunt said is true, I will keep it in mind."
The second aunt was extremely surprised. She didn't expect that Shen Ruoxi would become so easy to talk to now.
The atmosphere was a bit stiff, and just when everyone felt uncomfortable, Shen Zhen and Grandma Shen came into the room.
"Are you all here?" Grandma Shen asked with a smile.
The third aunt stepped forward and took the things from Grandma Shen's hand, "Mom, sit down and rest for a while. We are going to eat soon, so stop being busy."
"It's a rare trip, so I must buy something for you." Grandma Shen prefers three-bedroom apartments the most. Every time she comes, she packs big and small bags and has to go to the county town to buy them.
"I'll thank you mother there." The third aunt said happily.
The second aunt looked at those things with a trace of jealousy in her eyes. Her mother-in-law always came to their house for dinner empty-handed. When had she ever bought anything? The third bedroom was different. She bought everything. It was simply too partial.
Shen Wanni stretched out her hand and patted her mother's knee, "Mom, the third aunt's house grows many gourds, let's go and take a look."
"Okay, let's go take a look." Out of sight, out of mind, the second aunt didn't want to stay in the house anymore, so she took Shen Wanni outside.
Shen Ruohan was a little curious, "Sister-in-law, second sister, third brother, how about we also go and see the gourd?"
Xu Qinglan also wanted to see it, but she had never seen it before, "If you want to see it, go and see it."
Shen Ruohao was not interested, but he had nothing to do in the main room, so he finally followed.
Shen Ruoxi thought for a while and went out with everyone else, feeling a little embarrassed to be alone.
Grandma Shen looked at everyone's backs and secretly glared at the second daughter-in-law's back. She had shallow eyes and didn't look at how much money the third room gave her. Could she not buy something?
Shen San didn't come back until almost noon, looking very dusty.
The third aunt was very considerate. When Shen San came back, she quickly fetched him water and a handkerchief to wash his face. She was caring and considerate.
"Father, mother, second brother, second sister-in-law, I'm a little busy today, please bear with me." Shen San is a relatively tactful person, and after some words, everyone felt comfortable.
"It's okay, men should be busy with business." Shen Zhen looked at his son proudly.
Look at the village, how many people can buy a house in the county, including maids and women, far more than everyone else.
Shen San turned around and asked his wife, "Is the food ready? Start eating when it's ready. I have to go to work later."
"I'm ready, I'll wait for you to come back." The third aunt said with a smile, and then asked the maid to serve the food.
Grandma Shen took out two eggs and gave them to Shen San, "Today is your birthday, so you should eat two eggs. Mom cooked them specially for you. Eat them quickly."
"Thank you, mother." Shen San smiled and took the egg into his hand, slowly peeled it off and ate it.
He ate the eggs and everyone started eating.
Shen San looked at Shen Ruoxi and spoke with some concern, "I heard that you opened a medical clinic in the county?"
"Yes, third uncle." In the original owner's memory, this third uncle was quite good. He would bring food to the original owner and also bought him a set of clothes.
"Where is it open? When the third uncle passes by, go take a look?" Shen San felt that his niece had changed a lot. The most intuitive thing was that she had matured and looked much quieter.
"It's Gushengtang, which is just two streets away from Baicaotang. If my third uncle passes by, come in and have tea." Shen Ruoxi said pleasantly.
"Okay." Shen San smiled and nodded.
The third aunt was still stunned. When did Shen Ruoxi open a medical clinic? Why didn't she know?
Shen San greeted, "It's a simple meal. You can eat as much as you want for the whole family. You're welcome. Come and eat."
Shen Wanni said with a smile, "How can such a sumptuous meal be considered a simple meal? Third uncle is too humble."
"By the way Wanni, I heard that you are selling bubble oil cakes." Shen San turned to Shen Wanni and asked, "Is it true?"
Shen Wanni's delicate face had a smile, she nodded and said, "Uncle Third, it's true, it's been a while."
Shen San said helplessly, "Hey, I haven't been back to the village much and I don't know many things. Don't mind."
Shen Wani was very considerate, "Uncle San was joking, everyone is busy, we should understand each other."
Shen San praised, "Wani is really sensible."
Shen Wanni smiled. Every time she was praised, she felt very happy. She liked the feeling of being praised.
The atmosphere at lunch was good. Shen Ruoxi also drank a glass of wine, but the wine was not very good and made her very spicy. She had to drink a bowl of soup to suppress it.
After the meal was finished, Shen San left in a hurry.
Shen Ruoxi watched him go out and recalled that her third uncle was the shopkeeper of a restaurant in the county. The restaurant was doing well and he was usually very busy.
The third aunt sent Shen San out and then came back, "Let's sit down and have a cup of tea."
Being a guest means giving honor to the host. Shen Ruoxi, who originally planned to leave, sat back and waited for a stick of incense before leaving.
As soon as she left, Xu Qinglan and the others also left.
The third room didn't want to see them, they felt it, and they should leave wisely after eating.
