Chapter 379: Dad and mother are not as good as aunt

He was worried about the Shen family's affairs. Qin Lei and Shi Yun sat for a while, then stood up and said goodbye. Although Shi Yun was reluctant to leave, she thought she would see him again soon, so she easily sent him out.

After leaving Yongfu Palace, Qin Lei rushed straight to the Shen family. On the way, Commander Shen Bing, who was everywhere, emerged again.

"I'm really curious, why do you have to get on the bus halfway every time?" Qin Lei said with a funny look at Fengchen's subordinates.

Shen Bing opened his mouth and smiled reluctantly, "I'm afraid that those who are being stalked will find out."

Seeing that he looked solemn, Qin Lei no longer had the interest in joking and asked softly: "What's going on in Beijing these days?"

"The day before yesterday, Wen Yanbo went to the Li family, and the two of them had a secret conversation for a long time." Shen Bing frowned and said, "But there is no way to know the content of the conversation, and there was no movement afterwards."

Qin Lei took over the intelligence summary of the past few days and whispered: "Wen Yanbo lowered his figure and went to the Li family, which must be a big deal," he said, frowned slightly and said: "This old guy is disabled and has a strong will. He is still jumping up and down when he is here, but don't let him do anything."

Shen Bing said in a deep voice: "The prince means..."

Qin Lei smiled lightly and said, "It's not what I mean, but the old man's idea. He no longer wants to see Wen Yanbo again. Find a suitable opportunity and let them go."

"The Queen Mother's place..." Shen Bing said worriedly: "Based on the past, the Queen Mother did not want the Wen family to completely collapse. So his subordinates were worried that Wen Yanbo might have a life-saving magic weapon." He said implicitly, but Qin Lei could understand it. He actually suspected that the Queen Mother had any handle in Wen Yanbo's hands.

Qin Lei smiled and said, "Be prepared first. As long as you find an opportunity, you must smooth him out whatever you say. Otherwise, you will always let this guy slap the cold wind and light ghost fire, fearing that the world will not be in chaos. There is a word called... The needle is stuck on the back, and that's how it feels."

Shi Gan couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Prince, it's like a ray of light on his back."

Qin Lei rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Is it a steel needle hurting or a wheat mangle hurting?"

"It should be a steel needle..." Shi Gan realized.

Qin Lei was not in the mood to continue to chat with him. His attention was attracted by the information on the paper: "On the first day of March, Shen Zilan met the prince on the boat, and Wen Mingyi seemed to appear."

Taping gently on the paper, Qin Lei murmured: "Wen Mingyi?"

Shen Bing whispered: "Someone saw Wen Mingyi being thrown into the river and drowned for half to be fished up."

"Nanqiu, what's the point of bullying disabled people?" Qin Lei cursed with a smile: "Where is Shen Zilan? Why did he get together with the prince?"

Shen Bing shook his head and said, "I can't find out the specific content, but after the young master returned, he had a fierce conflict with his family, and even..." Looking at Qin Lei, he finally told the truth: "I beat the wife, which made the old man so angry that he couldn't get out of the ground."

Qin Lei's face became solemn and said in a deep voice: "It's probably the second brother instigated him, why did he do this?" He touched the bamboo branch at his hand, remembered Emperor Zhaowu's oral orders, and couldn't help but murmur: "The old man is good to this guy..."

He arrived at the Shen family in confusion, but saw the door closed. Shi Gan went up and called for a long time before someone came out to open the door. When he saw that it was the Fifth Master's convoy, the door hurriedly apologized and quickly ordered his subordinates to open the middle door and lead the group in.

"What's going on?" Shi Gan asked the disciple. The disciple happened to be Shi, and he was his distant cousin, so he naturally didn't need to be too polite.

The gate looked at the yard and whispered: "The eldest young master at home has caused trouble. Now the old man is going to deal with him when he comes back." Although Chen Wei is in charge of the Iron Armored Army, the Imperial General has been vacant, so he was responsible for the security guards in the spring exam a few days ago. Fortunately, he is the Imperial General for many years, and he is very comfortable in commanding the Imperial Army and has not delayed any chores.

He took a group of Imperial Guards to wait outside the Imperial College until the fifth day of the first lunar month. It was not until the end of the review and Qin Lei entered the palace to meet the saint. Then he withdrew his defense against Imperial College and ordered the army to return to the camp. He rushed home angrily and asked the unworthy bastard why he didn't participate in the competition.

After hearing the explanation from the disciple, Shi Gan went to report to Qin Lei.

Qin Lei smiled and said, "It's good, it's good, so I can hurt my feelings." He stopped the door from going in and informed him, got out of the car and walked towards the backyard.

After passing through several corridors and bypassing the slightly green rockery in the backyard, Chen Wei heard Chen Zilan shouting: "Non-sin! Why don't you kneel down for me!" Qin Lei quickly stopped and looked in. In the yard, the iron-armored general Chen Wei was holding a ruler in his hand and standing in front of Shen Zilan in anger, as if he would press him down and beat him up at any time.

Shen Zilan was not afraid of him and sneered, "You fight! I want to see if you dare to fight?" Qin Lei thought to himself, "This kid is not stupid, right? Is there anyone who dare not fight my son?"

Chen Wei seemed to be furious, and the ruler in his hand trembled slightly, and his voice became furious: "I am your father, what can I not beat?"

Shen Zilan stubbornly raised her head and said, "I don't recognize it!"

Qin Lei heard this and said strikingly: "Is this kid a nightmare? Why is that so different?" As he said that, he closed his eyes and waited for the sound of the ruler to crack the flesh.

But after waiting for a long time, I didn't hear anything. When I opened my eyes again, I saw Chen Wei throwing the ruler in his hand, pointing at Shen Zilan tremblingly, and hissing with a sad face: "Eighteen years of hard work have actually been exchanged for a 'I don't recognize it!'. Why are you so... ungrateful?" The powerlessness in your words could not be concealed at all.

Shen Zilan's body shook slightly, and he clearly felt the condemnation of his conscience. Just as he was about to soften it, he remembered what the prince said... Only when the children were quarrels, he wanted to make trouble, and the delicious candy was quarrels. Thinking of this, he raised his head again and looked at Chen Wei with a stubborn face.

Chen Wei was so angry that his hands were trembling by this stubborn beast, but he couldn't raise his hand. He really taught this kid a lesson and could only look at him like a bullfight to see who would kill the other person first with his eyes.

After watching this scene, Qin Lei also felt the strange atmosphere between the two father and son. Knowing that this was not the time to show up, he quietly stepped out and walked on another path to the small building where Mr. Shen lived.

But when he heard that the old man had just fallen asleep after taking medicine, Qin Lei had to retreat the same way and happened to meet Mrs. Chen's personal maid. Seeing that it was the fifth palace, the maid welcomed him into the building where Mrs. Chen lived in great joy and went straight to the bedroom.

"This is not good..." Qin Lei said with some slight swaying.

The maid looked thirty or forty years old, and then covered her mouth and smiled, "It's okay, you're not someone else."

Qin Lei thought to himself: "Why is this family strange? I am not an outsider, is it an insider?" He rolled his eyes and followed him into the inner room and saw Mrs. Chen who was ill in bed.

But seeing Mrs. Chen's beautiful face was obviously a little haggard, with a few strands of hair hanging down, cleverly blocking the bruises on her forehead. Seeing Qin Lei come in, Mrs. Chen was really overjoyed and said happily: "Yutian is here."

Qin Lei looked at the gauze bandaged on Mrs. Chen's wrist and sighed softly: "Auntie, why did Zilan go crazy?"

Mrs. Chen sighed sadly, looked at Qin Lei for a while, and suddenly Zhan Yan smiled and said, "It's just a child who is scattered, it's nothing to do." As he said that, he waved to let Qin Lei sit beside him, and took his hand and looked at it carefully.

Qin Lei was not very used to people holding his hand, but in front of this woman, he forced himself to hold the awkwardness in his heart and laughed dryly: "Is my aunt's wound okay?"

Mrs. Chen smiled and shook her head, and said softly: "It doesn't matter if my aunt is not a big deal. But you, you look a little thinner and your complexion is not as good as during the Chinese New Year."

Qin Lei chuckled and said, "I have been working in the tribute yard these days, and I am not as good as my home when eating, drinking and sleeping. It will be fine in two days."

Mrs. Chen said with a heartache: "You have to cherish yourself." Then she asked the maid to prepare meals. Qin Lei quickly stopped him with a smile and said: "I just used it in the palace, but it's a bit early to have dinner."

Mrs. Chen gave up, but she asked someone to get Bingling bird's nest for Qin Lei. She watched him eat three bowls before she could finish it.

After three bowls of bird's nests, Qin Lei stroked his stomach and smiled, "I don't have to eat dinner now."

Mrs. Chen smiled kindly and said, "Young people grow up, just eat more." Then she said to the maid, "Go and bring the clothes I made."

After the maid took a bag, Mrs. Chen took it and opened it, and took out a piece of Hulanchun shirt from it and said, "I have nothing to do in the year, I have made you clothes, and I don't know if it's appropriate." As she said that, she begged, "Put it out and see if it's not suitable, I'll modify it."

Qin Lei was really at a loss for this enthusiasm, but he was accustomed to being a ungrateful person, so he had to obediently follow the maid to the screen and change it. However, he found that the clothes were the same length and size, so he seemed to be tailored. Qin Lei couldn't help but curiously said, "I've asked my aunt about the size of the children's clothes, how could they be so suitable?"

Seeing that it was really suitable, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but lift her hands and said happily: "If you do it for others, you will naturally have to tailor your clothes, but your figure will be imprinted in my aunt's mind, and there will be no difference at all."

Qin Lei was also very happy that someone was so concerned about him. He smiled from the bottom of his heart: "It's better for my aunt to be nice to me." He just gave a simple compliment, but suddenly made Mrs. Chen's eyes turn red and choked softly, "Auntie is sorry for you."

Qin Lei smiled bitterly and said, "What's wrong with this family? Er doesn't look like Er, his father doesn't look like his father, and even his mother doesn't look like his own mother... she looks like my mother."

Mrs. Chen also noticed her loss of composure and wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, "My aunt has made shoes for you, both thin and thick, just suitable for wearing at this time." After that, she pulled out a pair of satin cloth shoes from under the pillow, held them in front of Qin Lei with both hands, and whispered: "Try it."

Qin Lei doesn't like to wear cloth shoes. He thinks it's hard for him to wear. Perhaps it's because the high-ranking officials don't need a walkway, so the soles of the shoes are generally too thin... and this is obviously not suitable for his daily exercise.

It was just to avoid disregarding Mrs. Chen's kindness that he forced himself to put it on. He stepped on the ground twice, but found that the bottom was extremely thick and he felt very comfortable when walking. He couldn't help but exclaim: "This shoe is very foot-intensive. Did it also make it by my aunt?"

The middle-aged maid who was serving beside him smiled and said, "This thousand-layer bottom is what my wife can take with her needle and thread. It will naturally feel comfortable if she uses her skills."

Mrs. Chen looked at Qin Lei with a smile and said, "I know you have many walkways, so I put more effort into the soles of my shoes, but there are no thousand layers."

Qin Lei jumped on the ground a few times, nodded and smiled, "It's really comfortable, thank you aunt."

Mrs. Chen shook her head and smiled, "What else do we mother and I want to say thank you?"

Qin Lei smiled and scratched his head, thinking how could he thank him? He asked Shi Gan to take the bamboo stick and hand it to Mrs. Chen and said, "This is given to me by my father. I said it is used to discipline my son Lan, so I will give it to my aunt. If the elders in the family are spoiled, you just want to beat it. As long as the pole is not broken, it will be disciplined by orders and no one can stop it."

Seeing that Chen Wei had no way to deal with Shen Zilan, he immediately remembered the Second Master Bao in the Grand View Garden. If it were not for Jia Mu's protection, I would have been beaten many times. Seeing Shen Zilan's situation now, it seemed that he was protected by an ancestor like Jia Mu, so he kindly took the stick to Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen took the stick with a laugh and cry, put it aside, looked at him with a slight anger, and said with a smile: "It will be a problem!" She said, holding his hand and asked, "Child, you will be eighteen in three months. You are at the age of a wedding... How can a girl with a heart, tell me to listen to my aunt?"

Qin Lei thought to himself that a woman is just gossip. She scratched her head and pulled her hand back, and said dryly: "What, can my aunt help me match?"

Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "What's wrong? It's just like that." She said with a kind smile, "Which girl is lucky enough to have the rain field in our family?"

Qin Lei thought about it, so he wanted to take this opportunity to let her pass the words to Emperor Zhaowu's ears, but the words were difficult to speak to his mouth. He said in his heart: "If the situation is explained clearly, they must have me choose one of them. Wouldn't it be a difficult time? I'd better wait for a great contribution and ask my father to be able to be able to be compatible... If it can be compatible."

Thinking of this, he put away his thoughts and covered himself up, "Where is there any sweetheart? The child will go to Jingshan Camp to prepare for military exercises in a few days. How can he put his thoughts elsewhere?"

Mrs. Chen said in surprise: "You are leaving just after you come back?"

Qin Lei curled his lips and said, "I have been back for more than three months, how can I just come back?" As he said, he said with a frown: "I have almost suffocated to death during this period of time in Beijing. If I don't go out for some breathing, I'm afraid I will get moldy."

Mrs. Chen covered her mouth and smiled happily: "This child is used to making trouble. Many people are there for their children who never leave Beijing for the rest of their lives, and they are not bad enough to get mold without hearing anyone."

Qin Lei shrugged his nose and said, "People are different. Some people like to dig pits and drill nests, while others like to wander around. Because of his personality." In my impression, this should be the first time he talked alone with his aunt in the Shen family, but it was unexpectedly harmonious. Unconsciously, the initial life was gone, replaced by a sense of freedom like a fish in water.

Mrs. Chen smiled gently and said, "You want to say, how can the sparrow know the ambition of a swan? My aunt understands this principle, but when she is old, she should be a family. I... your father and mother are still waiting to hold her grandson."

Qin Lei laughed and said, "No hurry, next year, wait until the military exercise is over, and I will ask my aunt for help."

Chen Wei was an iron-armored general. Mrs. Chen naturally knew that the military exercise would last until this time next year. She smiled and said, "Then there should be a secret. Aunt, please take a look for you first."

Seeing that she was excited, Qin Lei begged for mercy and said, "I really don't have any outline in my heart. Let's talk about it next year." Fearing that Mrs. Chen would not finish speaking, he stood up and said goodbye.

Mrs. Chen knew that he had a lot of things and was a little disappointed to get up and see him off. Qin Lei quickly stopped him and said with a smile: "My aunt is not in good health, so don't get up." After that, she trotted away, but did not give her a chance to see him off.

Looking at Qin Lei's disappearing back, Mrs. Chen shook her head and smiled bitterly. Just as she was about to lie down again, she saw him turning back hurriedly. Mrs. Chen asked with a smile: "But you forgot what?"

Qin Lei smiled embarrassedly and said, "Your Majesty said, let Zilan go to the Imperial Guard to report, but I forgot to say it just now."

Mrs. Chen nodded and said, "I understand." She said, "Do you know what to do?"

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "I didn't say this, but according to what my father meant, it seemed that he wanted to sharpen him." Afraid that Mrs. Chen would not be willing to let go, he whispered: "In fact, Zilan should be serious, and the Imperial Guard is an old subordinate of his uncle, so Zilan will not suffer any loss."
