Chapter 77 Chapter 077: Mother prefers younger sister
Today, December 28th
It's sunny and windless.

The streets were busy with traffic, people buying New Year goods came in an endless stream, and vendors were as busy as spinning tops.

Cheng Yurong waited eagerly at the gate of the General's Mansion, waiting for her second son Shen Zhiqing to return.

The result is one day long.

Until it got dark, he was nowhere to be seen.

"Yu Niang, come in! My second son can't go home today. Something delayed him on the way." Shen Hong held Cheng Yurong's shoulders, worried that she would have random thoughts.

He sent his men to inquire about the news the day before yesterday. The men who just came back got Shen Zhiqing's letter.

In the letter, he said that he met a pair of siblings who had just lost their parents on the way. He stayed for two days to help them regain their parents' property and find the murderer of their parents.

I was supposed to be able to return to the capital on the 28th, but had no choice but to postpone it to the 30th.

"Wait a little longer, maybe Qing'er will come back later." She refused to move a step, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed for a long time, forming the character "Chuan".

"Don't wait, okay? The city gate is closed. Even if the second son reaches the city gate, the soldiers will not let him in." Shen Hong was very helpless. He understood his wife's temper.

What she cares about most is her children. As a mother, can she not worry about her second child who has been away from home for two months?
The journey back was cold and dangerous.

Cheng Yurong pursed her lips, remained silent, and kept looking at the front of the street.

Shen Hong had no choice but to ride on a group of dark horses and go to the gate of the capital to see the situation.

Otherwise, the wife will not be able to return to the house with peace of mind.

Cheng Yurong didn't seem to notice Shen Hong riding away. She was only immersed in her own world.

Shen Zhiyu carried Ruan Ruan to the gate. Although it didn't snow today, he still felt a chill when he came out.

"Mom, come into the house! My second brother will be back the day after tomorrow at the earliest." It's not that he hasn't tried to persuade his mother, but he just can't do it.

"Sister, let's see how you behave now." He winked at Ruan Ruan.

Ruan Ruan responded with an "OK" gesture, which was the secret code between her and her third brother.

"Mother, baby." She stretched out her hands to hug Cheng Yurong, but the latter did not respond.

"Mother~Baobao~Mother~Baobao~" Ruan Ruan increased her voice and touched Cheng Yurong's body with both hands.

"Ruan Ruan? Why did you come out? Brother Yu, it's true, it's cold outside, why are you carrying your sister out?"

After Cheng Yurong came to her senses, she saw Ruan Ruan being carried out by the third child without wearing a cloak. She hurriedly hugged her daughter.

Unable to hold it back for a moment, she unleashed the anger that had been pent up in her heart for a long time against Shen Zhiyu.

"..." Shen Zhiyu pursed her lips and remained silent.

He knew that his mother didn't mean it, she was just worried about her second brother.

For more than ten years, my mother has treated the five brothers equally, with almost no discrimination.

If there is, it is that after the younger sister was born, the mother was more partial to her younger sister.

"Mother~Second Brother~" Ruan Ruan shook his head and waved his hands to prevent Cheng Yurong from scolding Third Brother.

"Alas..." Cheng Yurong sighed, only to realize that she was angry at the third child. "Brother Yu, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it just now."

In the past ten years, she has never scolded any of her children loudly.

"Mom, I know, it's okay. You are also worried about your second brother." Shen Zhiyu's rough personality followed that of Shen Hong, and he would not take these small things to heart.

"Sorry for making you worry about me." Cheng Yurong suddenly realized that she was a little willful. After all, her second child had an accident three years ago, and she didn't want to "lose" him again.

But the feelings of other children were ignored.

"Let's go inside!"

……

December 29th, sunny. Shen Zhiyuan was busy preparing all the gifts for relatives, friends and colleagues, registering them in the register, and sending them to the warehouse one by one to avoid making a joke on the first day of the new year.

In the past few days, my mother has been in a bad state because her second brother has not returned home, and she has no intention of preparing New Year's goods and gifts.

My father never cared about housework.

Ten days ago, Shen Zhiyuan also sent his fiancée Xu Wanrou back to the Xu family, bought several boxes of bird's nests, donkey hide gelatin and other valuable gifts, and gave her a hundred taels of silver to buy things he needed for the New Year.

Worried that she would be bullied in the Xu family, others would look down on her only if she had enough money.

After all, her parents only loved her younger sister, and she was like air in the Xu family and had no sense of existence.

She is obviously more sensible, smarter and better, but in the eyes of her parents, the naughty and selfish sister is the treasure.

"Brother, what gift should I give to the Jiang family this year?" Shen Zhiyu came to the living room and happened to see his eldest brother preparing gifts. He went over to look at the list of accounts.

"What do you think is a reasonable gift?" Shen Zhiyuan turned around and asked.

"If it's too little, I'm afraid that the Jiang family will think that the Shen family doesn't value Miss Jiang. If it's too much, I'll feel uncomfortable. After all, Mrs. Jiang and Miss Jiang Er have bullied Miss Jiang before."

A stern look flashed in Shen Zhiyu's eyes. When he becomes stronger in a few years, he will definitely help his fiancée teach Mrs. Jiang and Miss Jiang a lesson.

But not now, for fear that the Jiang family would hate his fiancée.

"Then give her normal gifts. Your fiancée's maternal ancestors, the Li family, will give her a few more gifts, especially gifts for your fiancée. If the news spreads, the Jiang family and the Li family won't despise her. "

Shen Zhiyuan said calmly that he had already thought about how to give gifts to the Jiang family and Li family, and he couldn't make any mistakes.

He handed the account list to Shen Zhiyu for a look.

After taking it, Shen Zhiyu looked at the gifts in the list carefully and smiled with satisfaction: "Big brother is still smart, so I will give you these gifts, no more, no less."

"Ah."

……

Shen Zhijie and Shen Zhicheng took Ruan Ruan to play in the baby room. It was cold outside and Cheng Yurong did not allow them to take their sister to play outside for a long time.

"Fourth brother, do you think second brother can come home tomorrow?" Shen Zhicheng missed his second brother very much. He hadn't seen him for two whole months, and he was worried about him every day.

After all, the five brothers have never left home or anyone.

"Yes, don't worry! Second brother has always done things safely." Although Shen Zhijie said this, he was actually a little dissatisfied with his second brother helping others on the way.

He was also worried whether his second brother would help others and be in danger.

It can be seen from the second brother's letters that there are many dangers. Catching the murderer is not something that the second brother Pianpian Gongzi does.

Shen Zhicheng pouted. He saw that the fourth brother was trying to coax him, and the fourth brother was also dissatisfied with the second brother.

"I feel a bit uneasy. Can helping others catch the murderer be solved in a day or two? If the second brother doesn't get home before the New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow afternoon, he will probably be hung up and spanked by his father."

"Hahaha..." Ruan Ruan couldn't stop laughing, and his trembling body fell on the soft bed and swayed from side to side.

Hang up and spank?

When she thought of that scene, she couldn't stop laughing.

The two brothers saw Ruan Ruan smiling so happily and planned to tell the second brother about it tomorrow. He didn't know if he could be hung up and spanked.

But if the second brother finds out, he will definitely hang her up and spank her.

Hahahahaha——
