He chewed on the rice and gulped it down. Luckily, he had not tasted the soup in the middle of the table.

Shen Yujing heaved a sigh of relief. Drinking a mouthful of soup, he would finally be able to suppress the rice that was choked in his throat.

With this thought, Shen Yujing took the spoon to fill the soup, but he was still a step too slow.

Feng Jiutan had already drunk the soup before her, using his own spoon and even taking two sips in a row.

Shen Yu closed her eyes, trying her best to calm her heart and tell herself, that fellow did not do it on purpose. It was absolutely unintentional.

Shen Yu Duan was a talkative person, so Feng Jiutan did not like to talk. Sitting at the same table as him, she did not make a scene, but her expression was still the same as usual, with almost no laughter, only a bit gentler than usual.

Shen Yujing put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "Take care!" He left the table.

Shen Yujing wanted to go upstairs, but was stopped by Shen Yu. Have her make tea.

Yu Ji looked at his second brother with some resentment, but that fellow had already turned his head away and started chatting with Feng Jiusandalwood once again.

Feng Jiutan raised his eyes and saw Yu Ji's appearance. His sword-like eyebrows lightly rose.

Shen Yujing was infuriated by his actions, and it was obvious that he was mocking her. Don't think that she didn't know.

Turning his head, turning his body, Shen Yujing left the living room, not wanting to get angry with that man.

Feng Jiu Tan took another sip of the soup. It was delicious and extremely refreshing; it really was delicious.

After instructing the servant to prepare the tea, Shen Yulian no longer stayed downstairs. She carried the dumplings that he had previously instructed the kitchen to prepare and went upstairs to Cen Cen's room.

That cousin of hers hadn't even eaten yet, so she couldn't just ignore her.

Since she no longer came out, Feng Jiutan ignored the disappointment in her heart. He was chatting with Shen Yu.

After the meal. Madame Shen no longer stayed in the living room. Men, talk about matters outside. Women cannot stay here.

When the tea was served, Shen Yu took a sip and felt that the tea was boring. She put down the cup and started to talk about Feng Jiutan.

He had already decided to stay in the capital, but he was still staying in the hotel where the mayor of Luo City stayed. It was not convenient for him.

Feng Jiu's eyebrows twitched. " You might have come to the capital before, but you can't say that you're familiar with it. It's not easy to find a place to stay for a while. "

"If that's the case, then I have a suitable place. The houses are already prepared, so it would be convenient for you to live there. However, I don't know if you're willing or not."

"Where?"

"Next door to my house."

The house next door was an old one. It was just that the son was a gambler and was losing, so he wanted to sell the house to make up for his living.

Feng Jiu Tan didn't care about the good or bad, as long as he could live there, it was fine. Shen Yu Duan felt that it was not bad, the two families were close, and they also had care for each other.

Men were always swift and decisive, with no complaints. Shen Yu brought Feng Jiutan to look at the house.

Cen Wanliang could not hold it in. He finally spoke out what was in his heart.

She only ate a few of the dumplings that Yu Li brought over. He put it aside. He looked at his aunt, then at his cousin, before speaking softly.

"Aunt, I want to return to Luocheng with you."

Shen Yujing looked at her in surprise. Why do you want to go back? "

Cen Wanshan glanced at her, but he did not say anything. He only lowered his head in silence.

"Mrs Shen is not too surprised, she just asked." Can you make the decision? "

Shen Yujing glanced at his mother, realizing that his mother had long since seen through his thoughts.

"Cen Wanru did not say that he could make the decision, but he merely said it softly." "I'm not familiar with this place. I don't know as much as my cousin, nor do I know as many words as her. I can't keep up with the school's curriculum, and, moreover, I miss my mother."

This little girl, two years younger than Yu Ji, had come here with a warm heart and a warm heart to her lover. However, when she had arrived, she realized that she had actually needed even more courage to persevere on.

Shen Yu did not know what to say, for this kind of thing, it was impossible to persuade.

Lady Shen inwardly let out a dishonest sigh of relief.

On the surface, he said, "Talk with your mother for a bit, you should at least ask for her opinion."

Mistress Shen let out a faint sigh, knowing that she was worried that Shen Qing Chu wouldn't agree with her thoughts. However, she definitely had to make this call, otherwise, Shen Qing Chu would definitely blame her for bringing her daughter back.

They agreed to call back tonight. At this time, there were still guests at home, so it was inconvenient.

Cen Wanru nodded. She had never had any objections.

Shen Yujing didn't know what to say, she wasn't someone who knew how to speak, and such comforting things could only be done by her mother.

"Master Shen let out a faint sigh. You have to be mentally prepared. You know your mother best, and the decision she makes is even harder than ascending to heaven. "

Cen Wanliang did not speak again, only looking down at the embroidery on the hem of her skirt.

Shen Yujing was no longer worried for Zen Wanliang. When Shen Yu brought her and her mother out to see off the guests, she realised that she was going to be neighbours with Ninth Master Feng.

This was a lot more annoying than Cen Dian's case.

After learning the whole story, the look in Shen Yujing's eyes changed as he looked at his second brother. He was especially resentful and disdainful.

Mind your own business.

He couldn't hold it in any longer, so he sneaked a glance at it once more, only to be caught red-handed.

It wasn't Shen Yu Duan, it was Feng Jiutan.

However, that fellow quietly turned its head away, pretending not to see anything.

Shen Yu was even more depressed.

The moment Feng Jiutan walked out of the door. She was the first to turn back.

Mrs Shen did not pay any attention to her daughter, but instead told her son about the matter of Zen Wanliang.

Shen Yu Duan smiled. If you want to go back, then go back.

The mother and son pair looked at each other and could see the thoughts in each other's eyes.

Shen Yu Duan did not feel that anything was wrong, although he did not have anyone that he liked, but he was definitely not someone that liked Cen Wanshan, a childhood cousin, if there was anything, it would have been done long ago, all these years it was nothing much, he just treated her as his little sister. Rather than hurting her in the future, he might as well cut off her thoughts right now.

The little girl was too innocent. With such thoughts on her face, how could he not see through it?

However, there were some things she couldn't say explicitly. Now that she wanted to go back, everything would be better.

"Feng Jiutan is escorting the mayor back to Luocheng. He has already promised that he will take care of you on the train back home."

The long journey was not a peaceful and prosperous one. He would not be at ease letting Madame Shen return on her own. However, he had no time to spare, and Feng Jiu Tan's suggestion had saved his life.

Mrs Shen smiled slightly, "Looking at him with such a cold face, I would never have expected him to be a kind-hearted person."

Shen Yu Duan nodded her head. Seeing that Shen Yujing had already gone upstairs, he approached his mother and whispered, "If I had met him earlier, I definitely wouldn't have married my younger sister into the Xu family. Although he isn't very easy-going, he's still a good person.

Mrs Shen softly sighed. Yes, it's too late to say anything now, we haven't met this person in the past few years, but now that your sister has gone through the experience, not to mention getting along with him, even if it's a normal family, they would still be unavoidably despised! "

A woman's position was not as good as a man's. If a widower married again, as long as he was a good man he might be able to marry a better marriage.

Thinking of this, Lady Shen felt vexed.

Seriously, he was cheated by that Xu family. Otherwise, her Yu Li family would have been able to get a good family off their hands.

"Mother, there's no need to think so much. After all, the era is different now. People are new now, and their ideas are advanced. They don't have as many feudal practices as before. "Moreover, even if she can't get out, as an elder brother, I can still raise her. I definitely won't let her suffer even the slightest bit …"

Mrs. Shen looked up at her son. Well, she didn't need to say anything the moment he opened his mouth. The reason was always on his side. She could never win against him.

"Let's not talk about that for now, let's call your aunt!"

Her son was too good at talking, so she didn't want to keep listening.

Even though her son's words made her happy.

As Lady Shen expected, the call came to Lin City. Sure enough, Shen Qingchu didn't agree to let his daughter go home.

The reason was sufficient and very grand. The era was different. He didn't want his daughter to stay in that small square yard. He wanted her to grow up and not learn to be a female doctor. It was better to not read too many books.

With these words, Mrs Shen was unwilling to argue with her. She passed the microphone to Cen Wanshan, but the little girl only called him 'Mother'. He didn't say anything else.

His eyes were dull as he listened to his mother's forceful persuasion on the phone.

He couldn't say any words of rebuttal.

When Lady Shen saw her like this, she felt lucky in her heart. Luckily, she had listened to her son and allowed Yu Li to enter the female student. Otherwise, wouldn't it be similar to what Cen Dian had said?

"Alright." Putting down the phone, the little girl's eyes filled with tears. My mother won't let me go back. "

As expected, the mother and son were disappointed. However, at this moment, he could only comfort her and say nothing else.

Since he couldn't go back, he might as well stay here peacefully. There was nothing he could do about it.

Compared to his sister-in-law, Shen Qingchu was clearly more stubborn and forceful.

Cen Wanliang, on the other hand, was in a depressed mood. There was nothing he could do about it. Usually, the mother and daughter pair would accompany her more, trying their best to persuade her.

Feng Jiu Tan decided to buy the house next door, so he didn't procrastinate and directly paid for the house deed. All the furniture had been replaced with new ones, and even the walls had been painted white.

After going back and forth like this, Shen Yu Duan had to take care of him. However, she refused to invite him to her house to eat.

He had to arrange everything here before he returned to Luo City. Naturally, it also included matters of work.

Although Shen Yulian hated him for living next door, she could not say anything. She could only silently swallow her heartfelt words as she watched her second brother help him to and fro.
