Chapter 508: See Mother Concubine
"Third brother, why are you worried?" Shen Yien rubbed his eyes and welcomed Shen Yishuo into the room.
"It's not you. I had to pour me too much last night, and then I didn't care about me." Shen Yishuo grabbed Shen Yien's ear and vented. When he woke up in the morning, he almost fell off his chin when he saw Tong Tong sleeping soundly.
"It hurts so much, let go!" Shen Yien felt that his third brother was inexplicably surprised. He didn't know what he was going to get so angry with him early in the morning. "It's not because I've been drinking too much. I don't have that good alcohol tolerance, hehe~"
"Stern brother, stop scolding Brother Ben. He was also confused last night." Ji'er didn't know why the two brothers in front of him had a conflict. "Maybe my sister didn't take good care of you...you?"
"No, she sent me back to the inn safely, but..." Shen Yishuo said, "En, let's go out and talk!"
"Don't, you two are chatting in the room. I'll go out for some breath. By the way, third brother, where is my sister now?" Ji'er took the initiative to avoid it to continue reminiscing with Tongtong. She had a lot of words in her heart that she couldn't ask in front of these two brothers. Although she had chatted until midnight last night, she was just drinking.
"Tianchi Inn, she hasn't left when I left." Shen Yishuo was trying hard to hide his inner embarrassment.
"Third brother, hehe~ you and Tongtong last night..." Shen Yien asked with a smirk when he saw Ji'er go out.
"What happened last night? Who told you to ignore me? Why didn't you bring me back to you?" Shen Yishuo glared at his fourth brother angrily.
"We live here in a remote location, and the room is small. Besides, I don't know if there is an empty room, otherwise you and us would have to squeeze in the same room?" Shen Yichen was very confident.
"Then you can't throw me to Tongtong? You know..." Shen Yishuo saw how deep Tongtong's love for him was in one glance.
"What do you know? You insisted on going back to Tianchi. Tongtong is considerate and takes you back. You still come to question me?" Shen Yien looked gloating.
"Who knows what she feels so at ease?" Shen Yishuo felt embarrassed when he thought of the scene in the morning.
"What? Did a woman in Tongtong touch you?" Shen Yien guessed his third brother's thoughts, "Aren't you just praised her for her good personality and pretty last night?"
"I praise you casually, why are you taking it seriously?" Shen Yishuo rolled his eyes at Shen Yien.
"I'm wondering, why has the taste of third brother changed? I had questioned before how I like extroverted women. I thought you would always like gentle people!!!" Shen Yien's tone could not hide the sarcastic sentiment, "San Brother, please honestly explain, what secret happened to you and Tongtong last night?"
"What secret can I have? If it were a secret matter, I would tell you on my own initiative?" Shen Yishuo knew in his heart that he did not have any skin ties with Tongtong, but it was not etiquette to share the same bed with a widow.
"Then why did you come to me in the morning?" Shen Yien looked disappointed.
"It's not for you...Mother." Shen Yishuo said half of his words just to make Shen Yishuo curious.
"What's wrong with my mother? Are you sick? I haven't seen her for four months, and I don't know how she is doing. Are you happy in the palace? Alas~" Shen Yien sighed long. He knew that there were very few opportunities to meet his mother after he got married.
"Mother Zhuang is here to see you. Maybe she is like you, and she is trapped in deep thoughts." Shen Yishuo mentioned Concubine Zhuang and naturally recalled his mother's wife. His heart was inevitably swept by pain again.
"My mother is here? Where is she now? When will she be able to go to Qiuchi? Did the father send her to visit me? How long can she stay with me?..." Shen Yien asked several questions in a row, making people in front of him wonder what to respond.
"She has arrived, right at Tianchi Inn." Shen Yishuo felt that it was not appropriate to see Concubine Zhuang alone, so he should have taken his fourth brother to meet with him.
"Third brother, have you seen my mother? How is she? The road must be very hard, right? She..." Shen Yien said and swallowed even more, and his eyes were red.
"Hey hey hey~ Mother Zhuang is here to see you, what a happy thing, why are you crying?" Shen Yishuo looked at Shen Yien with heartache. Although he looked strong on the outside, he still had a childlike soft heart inside.
"Third Brother, do you think I'm a little embarrassed now?" Shen Yien asked with tears in his eyes.
"Ha~ Mother Zhuang will be very happy to see you. Do you still care about your appearance?" Shen Yishuo gently helped Shen Yien to sort out his hair crown, "That's all."
"Thank you, brother, do I want to buy a new clothes in the shop?" Shen Yien's tone was full of pity.
"I saw your mother, not Ji'er. Why are you so nervous?" Shen Yishuo shrugged helplessly. He had never figured out that the mother and son should be the closest person but were so alienated.
"Third brother, you should know that even when I was in the imperial capital, I never met my mother for a year. Every time I dressed up, I was afraid that she would think I was not doing well..." Shen Yien suffered a lot of grievances because of Concubine Zhuang over the years.
"I understand, just find a clean robe to change it. There is no need to buy new clothes." Shen Yishuo patted his shoulder and comforted him.
"Okay." Shen Yien even trembled slightly with excitement.
"You weren't so nervous when you saw your father, right? Why did you feel as excited as if you were getting married? Haha~" Shen Yishuo couldn't control his smile.
"San brother, why are you laughing at me? I was so excited." Shen Yien never thought that his mother would come to the border to visit him thousands of miles away. Even if he dreamed, he would not dare to dream like this. "San brother, you are not lying to me, right?"
"What am I lying to you?" Shen Yishuo sometimes thinks that Shen Yile is like a monkey-stinger, and sometimes thinks that he is as stupid as a bear.
"Then pinch me, I'm afraid it's just a dream." Shen Yien grabbed his third brother's hand and placed it on his face.
"Didn't it hurt enough to pull your ear just now?" Shen Yishuo hid aside in disgust. He didn't like to have too much physical contact with others, even his younger brother who grew up with him.
"That's right, then should I take Ji'er to visit my mother?" Shen Yien was very shy.
"Let's go and prepare some high-quality ingredients first so that we can welcome Mother Zhuang and Linzi." Shen Yishuo felt it would be better to eat and reminisce about the past. He didn't want to see the scene of mother and son holding their heads and crying.
"Linzi is here too?" Shen Yien was very surprised.
"Ah, the most annoying thing I was that he saw that Tongtong and I lived in the same room, and he must have misunderstood me." Shen Yishuo nodded confidently.
