The fate of the Republic of China is you

The front was very lively, Zheng Jiawen was called over by Zheng Junren as soon as he arrived.

"Jiawen, come here."

"Father." Zheng Jiawen is 1.7 meters tall, wearing a suit that is very eye-catching. When she walked over, Hou Shuyi's mother, Yin Xiaxiang, was watching intently with surprise in her eyes, which was different from the one in the photo.

"Come on, this is Shuyi's father and mother. This is the eldest wife of the Hou family, and that is the fourth aunt. Call me." Zheng Junren patted his daughter on the shoulder, then turned to greet other guests.

Zheng Jiawen could feel the strength of his father's palm, and the warning was self-evident.

Zheng Jiawen looked at Hou Shuyi's mother on the left, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, pursed his lips and called out: "Mother, I am... Jiawen."

Yin Xiaxiang was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Are you Zheng Jiawen?"

"It's different from the photo, master." Mrs. Hou said in surprise. This man has a different temperament from the photo, and he doesn't have buck teeth. Most importantly, he looks very knowledgeable.

Hou Shengying was also surprised, why did his appearance change after recovering from a serious illness?

"Yes, I'm Jiawen, and the photos sent to the house were taken by the wrong servants." Zheng Jiawen explained when he saw that the Hou family looked like a ghost.

"Oh, it turned out to be a mistake. This morning, my in-laws sent someone to say that you have recovered from your illness, and you have woken up early, so I came over to take a look, take a look at you, wake up, wake up." Yin Xiaxiang looked Zheng Jiawen up and down, it didn't look like he was just recovering from a serious illness.

What I said was a bit cramped. It wasn't that she couldn't put on airs, but that her daughter was in the Zheng family. She felt sorry for her daughter, and she, a mother, could do nothing about this marriage. Hello Zheng Jiawen.

Hou Shengying gave Yin Xiaxiang a veiled look, he would be ashamed if he couldn't get into the elegant hall.

"Oh, Jiawen, look at the photos and make a fuss. I don't know you when I'm walking on the street. Shuyi's mother has never seen anything in the world, and she just talks upside down like this. Don't mind , you and I are considered son-in-law according to our relationship, come, let's have a drink." Hou Shengying picked up the wine glass and handed it to Zheng Jiawen.

"Sorry, I don't know how to drink." Zheng Jiawen refused. Seeing the other party's expression was not good, she poured a cup of tea from the next table, "Tea instead of wine, I respect you."

"Oh, oh." Hou Shengying's face softened, and finally the other party let him down the steps, "Look at me, I forgot that my son-in-law is a girl, girls should drink less, come on, let's do it."

Zheng Jiawen took a sip from his teacup.

"If you wake up this time, you will be lucky if you have avoided the disaster. Do you have any plans for the future? For example, take over the family business?" Hou Shengying asked with a smile. If Zheng Jiawen took over, he would be Hou Shuyi's biological father anyway. No matter how the high-level relationship wins some high-profit business, it will give him some noodles.

"I don't know how to do business, and I want to teach in Shanghai." Zheng Jiawen replied.

Hou Shengying's complexion changed, teaching a cobbler is nothing more than taking over the family business.

"Oh, that's fine. It's always a good thing for you young people to go out to practice and practice. Shuyi's elder brother and younger brother will come back in the next year or so. At that time, you young people will spend more time together and improve each other."

Zheng Jiawen nodded when he heard the words.

"Jia, Jiawen, I think your complexion is not very good. Are you still feeling well after recovering from a serious illness? If you are not feeling well, you can go back and rest. You don't have to stay here all the time." Yin Xiaxiang saw Zheng Jiawen's brows raised Yes, so he opened his mouth to find an excuse to leave.

"Sister, I see that the second young lady's face looks good, why are you driving her away?" Mrs. Hou asked aloud.

"I do feel a little uncomfortable, and I can't stand stably. Can mother help me in?" Zheng Jiawen asked.

Yin Xiaxiang was taken aback when she heard the words, then stood up, supported Zheng Jiawen's arm and left.

"Master, look at Shuyi's mother, she doesn't know who she is just because Shuyi is her own. And the second young lady didn't even call me, she just left like that. Mrs. Hou didn't dare to say it out loud, so she could only complain in a low voice.

"Okay, she didn't call me." Hou Shengying was also angry.

"Master, sister, haven't you seen it yet, that girl Shuyi is chewing her tongue, maybe she will say something about us in the ears of the second lady." The fourth aunt said with a sneer.

"This rebellious girl, I don't even think about who gave her education, who raised her so much." Hou Shengying's face turned blue.

Zheng Jiawen stopped after taking Yin Xiaxiang away from the birthday banquet, looked at Hou Shuyi's mother and said, "Shuyi wants to see you, so I'll take you there."

From Yin Xiaxiang's appearance, Zheng Jiawen can see how beautiful she was when she was young, and Hou Shuyi picked her mother's good-looking place to grow up.

"Okay, Shuyi is okay." Yin Xiaxiang's eyes were slightly red, and she had nothing to worry about in her life except her daughter.

"Fortunately, she is very self-reliant. She opened a fashion company in Shanghai, which specializes in cheongsams. The business is very popular." Zheng Jiawen laughed.

"You, your relationship with Shuyi, is it okay?" Yin Xiaxiang asked Zheng Jiawen, feeling very nervous. She didn't know whether what she wanted to hear was a good relationship or a bad relationship. Fuck me, my daughter's life is worry-free and secure, and even though she's not a real husband, her relationship is not difficult.But if the relationship is not good, she can separate her daughter in the future and marry and have children. For a while, she doesn't have any opinions.

"It's okay. It's just that sometimes I feel familiar, but in fact I'm not familiar with it. Our contact is only on the surface, and the relationship is not yet discussed. Um... let's see in the future." Zheng Jiawen told the truth To be honest, she doesn't plan to have a real relationship with Hou Shuyi in the near future. She wants to wait until the day when her heart is very firm and she can't think of Shurou before pursuing the next relationship.Otherwise, it would be unfair to Hou Shuyi. Even if they are together now, she will still have the shadow of Shu Rou in her heart. It is irresponsible to step into a new relationship under such circumstances.

"Oh." Yin Xiaxiang heard that the two of them had no real relationship.

"But don't worry, I won't bully her. My parents and grandma also like her very much. She is very popular in our family." Zheng Jiawen smiled and comforted Shuyi's mother.

Yin Xiaxiang smiled, she was a little relieved by Zheng Jiawen's last sentence, seeing that the other party was unassuming and had a good temper, if it was a boy, she would be able to close her eyes.But things in the world are not so perfect. In this troubled world, it is enough for my daughter to live a stable life without worrying about food and clothing and relying on her.

Hou Shuyi waited eagerly, and when she saw Zheng Jiawen bringing her mother, she hurried forward to meet her, and Yin Xiaxiang opened her arms to hug her daughter.

Zheng Jiawen saw that the eyes of both mother and daughter were red, so he quietly backed out so that they could talk about themselves.

"Xiumei, you stay here and don't let anyone in disturb you, you know?"

Xiu Gu glanced into the room and nodded, "Second Miss, don't worry."

Zheng Jiawen nodded and walked out, and saw Xiang Lan playing with Xiang Dong and Xiang Ying, while Xiang Tong was too young to play alone standing by waving his arms and stomping his feet.

"Little guy, no one is playing with you." Zheng Jiawen stepped forward and hugged Xiang Tong.

"My sister won't let me play, I don't like her anymore." Xiang Tong pouted, looking unhappy.

"You can't play this until you learn arithmetic. You won't be unable to play it. In this way, how about I take you on a swing?" Zheng Jiawen walked out as he spoke, and after taking two steps, he turned his head and looked at Wan Crazy The three children, "You three play for a while and remember to go to Zizhutang for dinner."

"Understood, sir." The mother in Xiang Lan's mouth didn't have the nerve to shout out, but she still called for sir.

Rising from the ground, at the turn of eight worshippers, mobs, specious, exquisite, eight immortals crossing the sea, eight male grass and trees, lingering and forgetting to return, there are so many

"Understood, aunt." Xiang Dong took the time to reply.

On that side, Hou Shuyi and her mother wept in the room and asked about each other's lives.

"I talked to Zheng Jiawen for a while. She is not an arrogant and unreasonable lady. She speaks softly and has a good temper. I knew she would not bully you after chatting with her. But, she is a woman after all."

"Mother, what does it matter if a man is a woman? Hou Shengying is a man, but are you happy? Although the Republic of China has been established, patriarchy is still dominant. I can't stand men's infidelity with my temperament. On the contrary, I would rather be with Zheng Jiawen." Be more comfortable and happy, mother, if I spend the rest of my life with her, will you accept it?" Hou Shuyi wiped her mother's tears with a handkerchief.

Yin Xiaxiang sighed after hearing the words: "It doesn't matter if the mother agrees or not, the marriage letter between you and her is legal, and the Zheng family treats you so well, if you find someone else, the Zheng family will not agree. How could I allow you to have two minds? My mother understands."

"Mother, I won't have second thoughts. I, I don't want to hide from you. I stayed in the Zheng family not because of how good the Zheng family was to me, but because, I, I like Zheng Jiawen." Hou Shuyi said to her mother truth.

Yin Xiaxiang's eyes widened when she heard the words, and she remained silent for a long time.

***Find the idiom in the previous article, please use the first word of the idiom.add. Q skirt***

Hou Shuyi held her mother's hand and summoned up the courage to continue: "I want to be with her, mother, you are my dearest person, so I want to tell you the truth, my daughter can only tell my mother what I want. I really want to confess all this to you.”

Yin Xiaxiang was stunned for a long time, before saying: "Mother knows."

"Mother, I know it will be difficult for you to accept it for a while, and time will prove that I will be happy." Hou Shuyi stretched out her arms to hug her mother, "I am also inspecting the tea market recently, and when I succeed, I will try my best to become a member of the Hou family. The biggest client, I will ask him to release you at that time, and I will pick you up to live with him at that time, so mother, you must wait for me."

Yin Xiaxiang sighed slightly and hugged her daughter back.

"Bang, bang, bang, Second Young Mistress, my wife asked me to treat you to a family dinner, Second Miss and the others have already gone to Zizhutang." Xiu Gu knocked on the door outside and said.

"The Zheng family's family banquet has started, you go quickly, I should go back to the front too."

"Mother, I'll take you there." Hou Shuyi stood up and helped her mother out of the house.

When waiting for Shuyi to come to Zizhutang, all the female family members of the Zheng family had arrived, and she smiled and walked up to sit on the empty seat on Zheng Jiawen's right.

"Shuyi, why didn't you invite your mother over?" Tao Min asked.

"My mother said this is a family feast, and it's not appropriate for her to come." Hou Shuyi laughed.

"Whether it's suitable or not, it's just a meal and a conversation together. It's not that particular." Although Tao Min said this, he didn't ask anyone to invite Hou Shuyi's mother in front. After all, it was a family banquet, and there was an old lady on it. Now, she is not good at being special.

"Are you crying?" Zheng Jiawen asked softly after taking a spoonful of tremella porridge into Xiang Tong's little mouth.

"Well, is it obvious? I didn't have time to touch up my makeup." Hou Shuyi said.

"It's not obvious, it's just that the eye sockets are slightly red, and you can't see it if you don't look carefully." Zheng Jiawen got up and took a glass of red wine from the table and sat down in front of Hou Shuyi. If you're in a bad mood, I can do it for you."

Hou Shuyi looked left and right when she heard the words, the tables in this bamboo hall were very long and they were all full of food.Many of them were dishes that she hadn't seen before, and she didn't know many dishes.

"Thank you, I want to eat that anchovy shrimp." Hou Shuyi smiled.

Zheng Jiawen turned to look at Hou Shuyi, she meant that this woman was serious.

"Sir, I want to eat too." Zheng Xianglan said aside.

Zheng Jiawen stood up with a smile when he heard the words, walked over and brought back a plate of anchovy shrimp, six in a plate, and put them in front of Hou Shuyi.

Hou Shuyi smiled and picked Xiang Lan, turned her head to Zheng Jiawen and said, "Unexpectedly, Xiang Lan has more face than me."

Over there, Tao Min didn't care about the younger generation, and took care of the old lady's meals, and occasionally glanced at her daughter, seeing the two talking and laughing, she felt relieved.

"What's on your plate?" Hou Shuyi glanced at Zheng Jiawen's plate and asked.

"Beauty liver, haven't you eaten it before?" Zheng Jiawen pushed it in front of Hou Shuyi, "Try it."

Hou Shuyi took a bite, but couldn't finish it, she frowned and said, "What is this? It tastes so weird, why is it called beauty liver?"

"Earlier, a general ate a dish in Ma Xiangxing, and wrote a couplet with a swipe of a pen: a hundred pots of fine wine made three people drunk, and a lonely lamp in a pagoda reflected the Six Dynasties. This is how the beautiful liver got its name. In fact, it is the pancreas of a duck. In Ma Xiangxing A plate of beautiful liver needs the pancreases of forty or fifty ducks."

Hou Shuyi felt a little disgusted when she heard that, she pushed the plate of beautiful liver to Zheng Jiawen, took a sip of red wine, she was not used to eating any animal's internal organs.Looking at Zheng Jiawen picking up chopsticks one by one, I immediately felt that Zheng Jiawen was a weird woman.

"Not used to it?" Zheng Jiawen saw Hou Shuyi's behavior, it was obviously delicious food, Zheng Jiawen stood up, took a small plate of egg siu mai and mushroom rice cracker

"Try this egg siu mai. This is also one of Ma Xiangxing's four famous dishes. This mushroom crispy rice is a signature dish in Nanjing. It is very fragrant."

Hou Shuyi picked up the chopsticks: "You are so knowledgeable about eating."

"It's not counted as research. These are old signature dishes. Before going abroad, whenever someone in the family celebrated their birthday, they would invite the heads of several big restaurants to cook at home. The more you eat, the more you will know." Zheng Jiawen said. Xiang Tong picked a Dong'an chicken and delivered it to the little guy's mouth.

It took a long time to eat this meal, and everyone ate a little of each item. Those with children had to take care of the children to eat first, and the guests in front of them also dispersed after they finished eating.

Several people gathered together to play mahjong, Zheng Jiawen's second and third aunts, Zheng Jiaru, and Hou Shuyi.

"Where are you going, Jiawen?" Hou Shuyi didn't know it at all, and she was dragged by Zheng Jiaru to make up for it. Seeing that Zheng Jiawen was going to leave, there must be someone behind her to teach her.

"I'll go back to my room to read the book." Zheng Jiawen blinked, "What's the matter?"

"Shuyi doesn't know how to play, you stand behind and teach me." Zheng Jiaru said while setting up mahjong.

Zheng Jiawen pursed his lips, wouldn't he be a loser?Zheng Jiawen didn't know much about it herself, but she didn't leave. Standing behind Hou Shuyi and watching, she felt that she would at least teach Hou Shuyi how to lose.

Hou Shuyi thought that Zheng Jiawen would do it, and she would play whatever Zheng Jiawen asked her to do. She had just played a four of a kind, but Zheng Jiaru suddenly pushed her card down, and then Hou Shuyi heard Zheng Jiaru say: It's a mess.

"Oh, let's make a deal." Zheng Jiaru accepted the money with a smile.

For the first time, Hou Shuyi felt that winning or losing was common, but she lost again after four rounds. Hou Shuyi felt that the person standing behind her was not Zhuge Liang. I learned it in the eighth round. When Zheng Jiawen asked her to make a cake, she looked back at Zheng Jiawen and asked: "Are you sure I will make this? Are you sure you will?"

"I didn't say I would!" Zheng Jiawen said innocently.

Hou Shuyi choked when she heard the words, "You don't know how. You stand behind and guide, that posture looks like you know how to do it."

"Come on, Shuyi, play a few more rounds with us now, and then you will teach her a lesson when you go back to your room and lock her up. Really, you won't teach people blindly. Let's see how many games you lost." Zheng Jiaru laughed.

"Then I'll go back to my room first, oh, my cousin and two aunts know I can't do it, you should understand what they mean if they didn't expose it, make them happy and don't win." Zheng Jiawen said leisurely and left .

"This family text." The second aunt couldn't help laughing when she heard the words.

"You say that she told Shuyi not to win in private, but when it comes to the stage, I'm too embarrassed to win." The third aunt smiled helplessly.

"It's okay, third aunt, let me tell you, I really don't know it. Even if I know it, I can't win the elders. Anyway, it's Jiawen's money that I lose." Hou Shuyi laughed. Her money was all given by Mr. Zheng. She doesn't feel sorry for the Zheng family at all. The Zheng family pays for her to play, and the most important thing is to have fun.

"Tsk tsk, hey, my poor little sister." Zheng Jiaru smiled while posing her mahjong.
