people on the cloud

Chapter 2: At the beginning of the agreement, I met my mother-in-law

"Second brother, what's the matter?" Chen Jiawang, who was teaching the little sister of the Chen family to write, stopped his hands when he heard the voice from the yard.The younger sister of the Chen family is learning from the excitement, and her brother stopped because he didn't like it, so he asked this question.

"It's okay, let's continue." Chen Jiawang pinched the little girl's nose and continued to teach her to write, but his mind was absent-minded, and his thoughts flew to this afternoon.

This afternoon, Chen Jiawang thought that he didn't have to work today, so he went to the market to buy some daily necessities.

"Are you the Erlang of the Chen family?" "I'm right here!" Hearing the voice, Chen Jiawang put down the things in his hand, turned around and replied, seeing that it was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl dressed like a maid from a wealthy family, she was a little puzzled Then he asked: "I don't know what the girl is looking for?"

"Our lady is waiting for Erlang in Tianzi No. [-] room of Mingyue Tower." The little girl replied crisply, turning her eyes on Chen Jiawang.

"Who is your young lady?" Chen Jiawang showed doubts on his face, but he complained in his heart that he must not be the person I thought.

"Shen!" The little girl uttered a word with a smile.At this time, Chen Jiawang wanted to look up at the sky 45 degrees melancholy, but the reality was that she left with the little girl reluctantly.

Arriving at Mingyue Tower after a while, Chen Jiawang thought about stretching his head or shrinking his head, so he simply got up and pushed the door open.After Chen's family entered the door, Shen Yuxiu just took one look at her and sipped tea without any haste, and the little girl went straight to Shen Yuxiu's side to serve her. The master and servant looked at ease as if there was no one else in the room.Chen Jiawang was really embarrassed, he didn't stand or sit, he was restless like an ant on a hot pot.

"Puchi!" The little girl couldn't help covering her face and laughing. "Liu Lu!" Shen Yuxiu gave the little girl a reprimanding look, and then called Chen Jiawang to sit down.Only then did Chen Jiawang heave a sigh of relief, and sat down obediently.The little girl Liu Lu also stopped smiling, and stood quietly by the side.

"You still remember what I said today." Shen Yuxiu spit out the words slowly, her voice was melodious.

"Um! I remember, but it's just a misunderstanding, so why bother with Miss's lifelong happiness." Chen Jiawang recalled what Shen Yuxiu said in the morning, and was embarrassed again, trying to explain and try to dispel her thoughts.

"There's no reason like you to take advantage of our lady, and still want to pretend that nothing happened." Liu Lu hurriedly complained for her lady after hearing what Chen Jiawang said.Shen Yuxiu didn't talk to her, just looked at her quietly, as if asking her if she had anything else to say.

"I'm not going to hide from Miss Shen, I'm actually a woman, and I pretended to be a man to make a living." Chen Jiawang had nothing to hide under Shen Yuxiu's gaze, so he could only tell the truth.

As soon as these words came out, Liu Lu stared at Chen Jiawang with wide eyes, as if she wanted to see a hole in her body.There was no fluctuation in Shen Yuxiu's eyes, and a pair of bright eyes looked at Chen Jiawang and said softly: "When did Chen Jiaerlang become a woman, or you are not Chen Jiawang at all."

After the incident this morning, Shen Yuxiu went to check on Chen Jiawang's background.I thought that Chen Jiaerlang was a woman disguised as a man, but the information she found told her that Chen Jiaerlang was a real man, and that Chen Jiaerlang disappeared a year ago and came back not long ago, so the person who came back would never Not the original Chen Jiaerlang.But it just so happens that if you have a handle, you won't be afraid that this person will be disobedient.Shen Yuxiu wanted to use this to force Chen Jiawang to agree to her marriage.

"What do you want to do?" Chen Jiawang didn't know what she was planning, and his face turned pale when he heard this.

"It's very simple, come to my Shen family to propose marriage. Then I will keep your identity secret." Shen Yuxiu finally told Chen Jiawang what was in her heart.

"Miss Shen, why bother?" Chen Jiawang couldn't understand why Shen Yuxiu married her since she knew she was a woman, and still had a glimmer of hope.

"It's not difficult! I heard that Chen's father and Chen's mother are already making arrangements for you. Marrying with me is the best of both worlds, and it relieves your worries, doesn't it?" Shen Yuxiu listed another thing that tilted the balance until My side.

"Okay, I promise you, but if I meet someone I like in the future, I hope Miss Shen will let me go." The matter has come to this point, Chen Jiawang has no choice but to agree, but he still hopes to leave a way out for his future self.

"Yes." Shen Yuxiu readily agreed, who knows what will happen in the future, anyway, Shen Yuxiu has all kinds of means to make this person obey her.The conversation between the two ended with one being satisfied and the other feeling helpless.

My thoughts went back to the Chen family, Chen Jiawang had finished teaching the little girl how to write, and the chatter of the women had also ended by this time.After finishing dinner under the urging of Chen's father and mother, Chen Jiawang hesitated and said to his parents: "Father, mother, I have a crush on a girl, and I invite my parents to propose marriage."

"Which family is the girl from?" Chen's mother's smile had already crept up on her eyebrows. She thought that her son was already eighteen and should get married. Two days ago, she asked someone to help see if there was a suitable girl. Now her son is I brought it up by myself, and I was very happy.

"Hmm! Shen... family, Shen... Yu... Xiu." Chen Jiawang replied hesitantly. She was a little afraid of seeing Chen's father and Chen mother turn their faces. After all, in their hearts, Shen Yuxiu was a Bodhisattva-like person, and she was the seducer. Her little boy.

"Shen's family, Shen Yuxiu, okay, mother right now... Wait, Shen Yuxiu, you brat, you are that little face, you have disgraced our Chen family, how will we behave in front of the third young lady from now on." Chen Father and mother Chen didn't react at first, but when she recovered, mother Chen grabbed Chen Jiawang by the ear and reprimanded him.

"Ouch! Mother, it hurts! She is no longer the third young lady, and you will be her in-laws from now on. She dare not show you any shame." Chen Jiawang muttered dissatisfiedly while begging for mercy.However, Chen Jiawang was just sticking to his cheap words, and when Shen Yuxiu really became her daughter-in-law, she would not dare to treat her like a daughter-in-law, maybe she would have to provide for her like an aunt.

"Smelly boy, the rice has already been cooked, your mother and your father will not be evil people. When Yuxiu enters the door, you will take care of us well. If there is any negligence, your father and I will kick you out Family, I don't recognize you as a son anymore." Chen's mother let go of Chen Jiawang's begging for mercy, but changed her name to "Yuxiu" as she wanted.Chen Jiawang knew that this matter was considered a success, but he was very unhappy and clamored whether he should be so ruthless, who is your own son!

While the Chen family was busy preparing the bride price, Shen Yuxiu had already returned to the Shen family.Seeing her daughter coming back, Shen's mother and Shen's father held her daughter's hand with reddish eyes, not knowing what to say happily.

"Father and mother, Axiu has been working hard all the way, let her take a break first, and then talk to you." The eldest daughter-in-law of the Shen family, Shen Zhoushi, who was standing beside her, persuaded her in-laws to let Shen Yuxiu go first. rest.

"It's still Ah Yun who is thoughtful!" Shen's father and Shen's mother quickly agreed, and let Shen Yuxiu go back to her boudoir.

It's just that Shen's mother remembered some bad rumors and couldn't help but feel depressed.No, after Shen Yuxiu had a short rest, Shen's mother took her daughter to talk to her in the boudoir.

"Tell mother the truth, how are you doing in Wu's house, and whether you have suffered." Shen's mother looked at her daughter's obviously clear face, feeling very distressed.

"Mother, I am the third young lady of the Wu family. Who in the Wu family would dare to bully me." Shen Yuxiu took her mother's hand and acted like a baby.

"Good boy, now that you have returned to the Shen family, you are still the jewel in the palm of the Shen family." Shen's mother patted Shen Yuxiu's hand, not believing all of Shen Yuxiu's words, but thinking that her daughter had returned, the depression in her heart eased a little.

"It's rumored that you raised a little boy outside, so what's going on?" Shen's mother took this opportunity to ask again.

"Mother, Erlang is not a badass, she and I are in love with each other." Shen Yuxiu knew that Shen's mother would definitely ask about this, so she took out the excuse she had prepared long ago, and lowered her head pretending to be shy.

"Joke, she's a cashier, how can she be worthy of you?" Seeing her daughter's disappointment, Shen's mother made a sullen voice.

"My daughter is now a broken flower and a willow, so there is no question of whether she is worthy or not. Nowadays, everyone's son will definitely not want to marry his daughter as his wife, and his daughter will not want to be a partial house or fill in the house for others. And Erlang's family has a simple population. Marry early, her sister is still young, her parents will be old, and Erlang is in charge of the family, so marrying her is the most suitable." Shen Yuxiu smiled self-deprecatingly, but she did not forget to speak well for Chen Jiawang.

"Axiu, when Sanlang left, your father and I asked you to come back, but you insisted on staying in Wu's house and saying that you would keep the third room for Sanlang. Now you are going to marry that accountant again. Mother can't hold you back, but mother must first Meet her and see if this person is worthy of entrusting her for life." Shen's mother softened her tone when she saw her daughter was sad, she knew she couldn't change Shen Yuxiu's mind, and after thinking about what her daughter said carefully, she felt that it was indeed reasonable, but Still worried, I want to see Chen Jiawang.

Seeing her mother's softening attitude, Shen Yuxiu knew that this matter was within her expectations, so she quickly agreed.

"How is your mother's temperament? Is my dress suitable today? Does your mother like the gift you prepared?" "Chen Erlang, you have asked me hundreds of times, and my ears are getting callused when I listen to it. "Liu Lu, the little maid beside Shen Yuxiu, looked at Chen Jiawang asking her miss again and again, and rolled her eyes at her impatiently.

"Liu Lu, be presumptuous! Where are your rules? Go back and copy the admonition a hundred times." Shen Yuxiu saw Liu Lu broke the rules several times in front of Chen Jiawang, and planned to teach her a lesson so that she could correct it.When Liu Lu heard this, she immediately grimaced, and made a face at Chen Jiawang where Shen Yuxiu couldn't see.

"I'm not afraid of leaving a bad impression. What if the matter between me and your lady is blown up?" Chen Jiawang didn't care about Liu Lu's behavior, and explained with a shrug.

"Yuxiu, I really want to see your mother now! If it's only two days, I'm not ready yet." Chen Jiawang pulled Shen Yuxiu's sleeve and shook it again, as if I wasn't ready.

"The ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her parents-in-law!" Shen Yuxiu frowned slightly when she heard her calling herself "Yuxiu", and then relaxed as if she had figured it out, and said the words lightly.

"Oh!" Chen Jiawang pulled his head and followed Shen Yuxiu.Wait, who is the ugly wife? I'm not ugly, and I'm not a wife. You are my wife.Chen Jiawang realized something was wrong as he walked, and started complaining in his heart again.It's a pity that she didn't notice that Shen Yuxiu looked at her unpredictable little face, the corners of her mouth were raised slightly, her face was like a peach.

It seems that Chen Erlang must be respected in the future!Liu Lu on the side took Shen Yuxiu's smile into his eyes and made this decision in his heart.

Chen Jiawang followed Shen Yuxiu to the Mingyue Tower where they talked last time. Looking at the door of Tianzi No. [-] room, she really wanted to say that it was still a familiar place, and it was still the same room!Before she could finish complaining, Shen Yuxiu had already opened the door and went straight in, and Chen Jiawang had no choice but to follow closely behind.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Shen's mother wearing a very elegant brocade dress, with a beautifully carved jade hairpin on her head, sitting there, showing the majesty of the mistress.Chen Jiawang straightened his back unconsciously, and greeted Shen's mother.

Seeing Chen's family looking at him in green shirts, red lips, white teeth, bright eyes and sparse eyebrows, Shen's mother couldn't help but praise in her heart: what a handsome boy!When Shen's mother shifted her gaze to Chen Jiawang's small body, she shook her head slightly, as if she disliked her for being too thin.

After Chen Jiawang saluted, she didn't see Shen's mother answering her for a long time, and she was at a loss for what to do.In her heart, she felt speechless that these two must be mother and daughter, and they even had the same habit of showing off.

"Mother!" Shen Yuxiu spoke from the side to ease the atmosphere and remind her mother not to embarrass Chen Jiawang.

"Okay! I won't talk nonsense, just ask, why do you marry my daughter?" Shen's mother waved her daughter's elbow helplessly.

With my heart!I usually read too many romance novels, so Chen Jiawang almost said it out of the box. "Hmm...! I'm good-looking, and I can be eye-catching; I don't earn much, but if I have a bite to eat, I will never let Yuxiu go hungry; and I don't care, Yuxiu alone in the backyard is enough." Chen Jiawang thought about it carefully, and counted his advantages one by one.

When Shen's mother heard this, she couldn't laugh or cry, but after thinking about it, this child is also an honest person.Come on, Shen's mother didn't intend to embarrass too much, she took out a paper contract prepared in advance, and signaled Chen Jiawang to take it.

After Chen Jiawang took over the contract and looked at it carefully, he understood that the general meaning of the above was that after she married Shen Yuxiu, if Shen Yuxiu had nothing to do, was seriously ill, or was old and lustful, she would not be allowed to take a concubine or divorce her wife.If it was a real marriage, Chen Jiawang would definitely sign and pledge without hesitation, but this is a fake marriage, and she doesn't want to spend her whole life on it.

Didn't you say there was such a thing before?She asked Shen Yuxiu with her eyes.

You must not divorce your wife, but you did not say that I must not divorce my husband.Shen Yuxiu gave her a relieved look, but there was a hint of a smile in her eyes.

And this stubble!Chen Jiawang suddenly realized, and without further entanglement, he picked up a pen and signed his name and put his fingerprint on it.Little did she know, she had fallen into the trap set by the mother and daughter, and there was no turning back.
