Tonight was to be a feast for Shen Ming, so the dinner was placed in the main hall. When the meal was almost ready, Song Ziyu came back, and Mrs. Liu was also invited to the main hall.
Song Ziyu greeted her uncle and sat down in a curt manner. Although she remembered this little uncle, but now that she saw him in poor clothes, she really couldn't like this poor uncle in her heart.
"The old lady is here." A servant outside called out. Shen Ming, who was sitting in the hall, quickly stood up and left the table. When Old Madam Liu approached, he raised his hands and made a big bow and said: " Shen Ming has met the old lady."
Ms. Liu looked Shen Ming up and down, twitched her lips and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, I haven't seen you for many years, you have grown into a young man, and you are getting more and more handsome."
She felt a little uncomfortable because, according to Grandma Wang, when this young boy from the Shen family entered the house, he would be the first to see her. It was better for him that he had no etiquette at all and had to wait for her. The elders came to see him.
Shen Ming straightened up, looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "I haven't seen you for many years. The old lady looks younger and tougher than before."
Shen Ming didn't know that Mrs. Liu already had a grudge against him.
Lin Qingxue led several maids serving dishes into the main hall. After the maid arranged the last few dishes, she smiled and said: "The dishes are all here, let's sit down and eat first!"
So, Mrs. Liu took a seat with Lin Qingxue's support.
Song Heng sat on Mrs. Liu's right hand side as usual, next to him was Shen Ming, and then Shen Wan. Lin Qingxue sat on Mrs. Liu's left hand side, and next to her was Song Ziyu.
Song Heng picked up the wine glass and said: "Today's banquet is for Ming'er to receive the wind and wash away the dust. Let's toast him together."
Hearing this, Shen Ming, who did not know how to drink, hurriedly picked up the tea cup.
Mrs. Liu and Lin Qingxue also picked up their wine glasses, and Shen Wan and several others picked up their tea cups.
Song Heng looked at Shen Ming and said, "Now that you are here, live in peace of mind. Your sister and I's home is your home."
"Yeah" Shen Ming smiled and nodded, but gave Lin Qingxue a sideways glance. This family is not decided by his sister, so how can it be his own?
Mrs. Lin decided to act like the matron of the house, and she wanted to be the head of the house.
Mrs. Liu also said: "Just treat it like your own home, live in peace of mind, and if you need anything, just tell Qing... tell your sister."
She originally wanted to tell Qingxue, but she felt bad about it, so she changed her words in time.
"OK."
Lin Qingxue wanted to say a few words, but when she was about to speak, Song Heng took the lead and drank the wine in the cup. She had no choice but to close her mouth and drink the wine in the cup.
"Okay, let's use the chopsticks!" Mrs. Liu picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised carp for Shen Ming.
Shen Ming hurriedly picked up the bowl and took the fish from Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu said: "The cook in the house cooks the fish very well. I usually like to eat this fish. You should try it too."
"Thank you, madam." Shen Ming put the bowl back to its original place and picked up the chopsticks.
"Are your parents okay?" Mrs. Liu looked at Shen Ming again and asked.
Shen Ming put his chopsticks on the plate and replied: "Everything is fine with my parents. I just miss my sister in my heart and am always worried that my sister will be wronged and live a bad life."
Ms. Liu smiled coquettishly and said, "Your parents are worrying too much. How can our Song family let your sister suffer?"
Shen Ming smiled and said: "That's what I told my parents. My brother-in-law is generous, and the old lady is kind. You used to treat my sister like your own daughter. My sister has suffered so much in those years. Such sins have allowed this family to survive until the brother-in-law returns in triumph. Brother-in-law and the old lady, you will naturally think of your sister and will not treat her unfairly. But the hearts of parents are different. You can’t rest assured. Madam, you are also a mother, so you should understand!”
Shen Ming's words made Mrs. Liu blush and feel guilty. Although she felt that she had not treated Shen Wan badly, she could not be considered loving to her now, let alone treating her as her biological daughter.
This boy from the Shen family is also a genius. He must have seen something before he said these words to remind them that Shen Wan is the benefactor of the Song family! Not to mention Shen Wan, this Shen family can also be regarded as the benefactor of the Song family. At the beginning, if Without the constant support from the Shen family, they would not have been able to survive. Mrs. Liu has never forgotten these kindnesses.
She nodded her head and said vaguely: "Yes, of course I understand."
Although Ms. Liu always felt in her heart that Shen Wan was the one who disrespected her first and therefore disliked her. She was the one who treated her badly, but she couldn't let the Shen family think that their family was ungrateful and had wronged Shen Wan.
"Eat quickly!" Shen Wan smiled and put a piece of chicken in Shen Ming's bowl and said, "You should be hungry too."
Shen Ming smiled at his sister and said, "I am indeed hungry."
"Uncle, if you are hungry, eat more." Song Ziling was busy putting vegetables in his bowl, not forgetting that his uncle would eat more.
Shen Wan looked sideways and saw that the meat in Song Ziling's bowl was piled as high as a hill, so she said with a straight face: "Your uncle can eat more, but you have to eat less."
This brat is planning to let himself go tonight!
Seeing that Shen Wan was scolding Song Ziling, Lin Qingxue said: "Sister, Ziling likes to eat, just let him eat! It's a child! Only when you eat can you grow. I see that Ziling has lost weight, mother, don't you think so?" Lin Qingxue asked, looking at Mr. Liu.
Mrs. Liu looked at Song Ziling carefully, nodded and said, "He has indeed lost weight." Although he was a little thinner, the man looked energetic.
"Sister" Lin Qingxue looked at Shen Wan again and said: "Sister, don't hold your child back when it comes to eating. If the food in Qiushi Courtyard is not enough, let Ziling go to the Mother's Courtyard to eat with everyone every night. Bar! "
Shen Ming frowned slightly. Hearing what he meant, everyone else went to the old lady's courtyard to eat together, but his sister was alone in the courtyard. How could this family eat from two families? This is clearly aimed at his sister. This Lin is not a simple person, and these words are clearly insinuating that his sister is reluctant to give food to her children.
Shen Ming didn't know that it was actually his sister who didn't want to eat with Mrs. Liu and the others.
Shen Wan ignored Lin Qingxue and stared at Song Ziling with a straight face.
Song Ziling felt guilty for a while after being stared at, so he took some of the meat out of the bowl and put it in Ling'er's bowl.
Lin Qingxue, who was ignored, bit her lip and twitched the corners of her mouth, with a look of embarrassment and grievance in her eyes.
Song Ziyu couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but said: "Mom, my second mother is talking to you!"
"Oh" Shen Wan responded lightly, picked up the chopsticks and started eating the food without even raising her eyelids.
Song Ziyu was about to have a fit, but Song Heng's sharp look made him lose his temper.
Shen Ming's brows furrowed again. This Ziyu, her sister was clearly her biological mother, so why did she turn to Mrs. Lin instead? It seemed that he was really right this time!
