Liu Jingyuan only stayed in the Shen family for two days. On the day he left, Shen Zhonglei took Shen Tianshu all the way to the city gate.
"Shu'er, once uncle leaves this time, we won't know what year or month we will see each other again."
"Uncle, we are blood relatives. Even if you break your bones, your tendons are still connected. No matter how far apart we are, Shu'er will always miss you."
"When your uncle has settled down in Hangzhou Mansion, ask your father to send someone to take you to Hangzhou Mansion to play. It will be a good time to visit your grandmother and aunt. They are also thinking about you every day! You must not get separated from us."
Shen Tianshu's previous life had a harmonious family and attached great importance to emotions. The family love that he could not find in the Shen family in this life was unexpectedly found in Liu Jingyuan.
Although they only got along for two days, now seeing Liu Jingyuan turning around every step of the way and saying endless words of advice and concern, Shen Tianshu couldn't help but feel sore at the root of his nose, and his eyes were instantly filled with tears.
"Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely visit my grandmother and aunt if I have the opportunity in the future."
Liu Jingyuan couldn't control his emotions, and even swallowed: "My poor sister, she passed away early. When you were too young, your grandfather and grandmother wanted to take you around to take care of you, but they couldn't do it. If you can chant sutras and chant Buddha at home every day, praying that everything will be safe for you, if your grandfather could see you growing up now, he would definitely be very happy."
Now not only Shen Tianshu, but also the servants on both sides could not help but lower their heads and start sobbing.
Shen Zhonglei looked at his daughter and then thought of his deceased wife. Although he tried not to cry, his eyes were red.
After sending Liu Jingyuan away, Shen Tianshu arranged the two servants he sent to live in the house he bought, and even Chunlan was sent there to recuperate.
The servants of these two houses were named Gao and Deng.
The head of the Gao family is forty-six years old. His name is Gao Shan, and his wife is Fang. They have three children, a son, two daughters, and they are the eldest son Gao Qingsong, who is seventeen years old this year, the eldest daughter Gao Xiuer who is fourteen years old, and the second daughter Gao Cuier who is nineteen years old. age.
Deng Hua, the head of the Deng family, is forty-nine years old this year. His daughter-in-law is Jin, his eldest son Deng Hao is twenty-three, his eldest daughter-in-law is Zhou, their second son Deng Xin is sixteen years old, and their youngest daughter Deng Wen is just six years old.
Seeing Shen Tianshu, everyone in the two houses knelt down and kowtowed: "I've seen the eldest lady."
"Everyone, get up. You are all old people from my grandfather's family. You don't need to perform such a big ceremony." Shen Tianshu looked at the crowd and said, "I heard from my uncle that you all used to have a relationship with my mother. It's a pity that my mother passed away. You have to be early, otherwise I will definitely be very happy to see you."
Deng Hua said: "The villain's wife had a difficult delivery when she gave birth to her son. If my aunt hadn't taken action, she would have died at that time. How could we have such a good life today? Our family's lives were all given by my aunt. So who do you ask me this time? We were willing to serve the girl, so our family decided to come at that time. We failed to repay my aunt's kindness at the beginning, so we can only serve the girl well in the future to comfort my aunt's spirit in heaven!"
Gao Shan also followed up and said: "Girl, I am stupid and can't speak, but my own life was saved by my aunt. From now on, whatever the girl asks me to do, I will be pissed off and will not give up even if I die."
"I don't have any serious errands here. I just know some medical skills, so I want to open a medical clinic here. I have a special status and can't show my face. People who buy it from outside don't know the basics and don't dare to use it casually. Thanks to my uncle. By sending you here, I finally have someone I can rely on."
The two families did not expect that Shen Tianshu knew medical skills at such a young age, but they had no doubts.
Because Liu Yaxuan was very talented in studying medicine, Liu Jingyuan was not able to inherit the mantle of Mrs. Liu. However, Liu Yaxuan was already able to help the servants in the family to see and treat diseases when she was a widow.
Shen Tianshu is Liu Yaxuan's daughter. It seems logical that she has such abilities at such a young age.
"This hospital won't open until next year. You guys stay here for now. That girl Chunlan is recovering here, so I can help take care of her, but don't let her wander around. If anything happens, go to Shuangjing Alley to find Qiu Jun. He will He will find a way to pass the message to me."
"Yes." Deng Hua said, "Since we came with my uncle, we have made up our minds to follow the girl for the rest of our lives. Everything depends on the girl's orders."
After settling the people in the two rooms, Shen Tianshu went back home and was about to change clothes and go to greet Mr. Xu, but he heard Nanny Yang say: "Madam, I asked someone to send a message today, saying that she is unwell and needs to rest. The family has spent the morning and dusk together on New Year's Eve, and the girl can finally relax for a few days."
"You talk about resting and not resting, I'm afraid you might be upset when you see me!"
Shen Tianshu figured out Xu's thoughts very well.
After sending Liu Jingyuan away that day, both father and daughter came back with red eyes and low spirits. Xu's "illness" that had just improved became serious again, and she kept complaining that she felt uncomfortable all day long.
But Shen Zhonglei was immersed in the memory of his deceased wife, and slept alone in the study for several days, and Mrs. Xu could not see anyone at all.
Although Shen Tianshu rarely sees anyone, he does it once a day, morning and dusk, so that no one can find anything wrong with him.
But when Mrs. Xu saw her, she became even more angry. In the end, she took advantage of her illness and skipped all the greetings from the previous year.
"You're here to give me a New Year's gift, but I'm just here to support Shen Tianshu!" Mrs. Xu angrily complained to Hanqiao, "She's going to be upset if no one supports her. Now that someone is supporting her, I'm afraid she'll even lose me." This stepmother took it seriously. When Mrs. Zhao was sick, she even knew how to ask for a copy of the King of Medicine Sutra. Now that I have been sick for more than half a month, she has not shown any sign of it! No wonder people say that it is not her own stomach. What crawls out of the heart cannot be nurtured even if it is separated from the heart!"
In fact, Hanqiao never understood why Mrs. Xu insisted on competing with Shen Tianshu.
Shen Tianshu is sixteen years old this year, and will definitely get married in two or three years at most. When the time comes, he may be able to take advantage of his son-in-law's family, so why bother to create a feud?
Besides, Shen Tianshu is Shen Zhonglei's eldest daughter. Whether she marries well or not will directly affect the girls in the family.
To put it bluntly, if the eldest daughter is really married to Xu Yihao, and later wants to find a good family for the second daughter, which young man from a wealthy family would be willing to have a brother-in-law like Xu Yihao?
Not only was he unable to help, but he was also beaten frequently. If something happened to Xu Yihao, he might be embarrassed.
But if Shen Tianshu marries well, it will only help the second girl's marriage.
From now on, Shen Zhonglei's career will get better and better. The second girl's marriage can only be better than that of Shen Tianshu, not worse than hers.
It can only be said that a daughter raised in a small household has short-sightedness and cannot see the long term.
Hanqiao now feels that it is time to make more plans for her future.
