Chapter 61 Eldest Brother [Repaired]
Chapter 61 Eldest Brother [Repaired]
"How can I forget?" Shen Ke argued.
"You forgot." Shen Heng didn't even need to look at Shen Ke's expression, just listen to the lack of confidence in his voice that he thought was well hidden, and he knew that he didn't remember.All these signal gestures were thought out by Shen Ke, but after the two agreed, they often forgot what the gesture meant, and it was Shen Ke again.
There were some stone tables and chairs in the yard. Shen Ke remembered that in midsummer nights, the family would sit under the grape trellis when they had nothing to do.The cool red naan watermelon, the night wind is blowing, Dad mutters about the new clerk at the rice shop who is lazy and not doing anything, Mother lowers her head to hold the sole of her shoe, threading the needle and thread through her fingers, making people dizzy.Shen Heng was a little older, went to a private school, couldn't finish reading the books every day, and even lit an oil lamp to read under the window at night.Shen Ke was the most relaxed, running all over the yard, and Mrs. Zhang was afraid that he would fall, so she ran behind and was drenched in sweat.
But this time is no better than summer, even though there is a layer of cotton cloth, when sitting down, Shen Ke was still unprepared and froze for a while.He didn't want to have a heart-to-heart talk with Shen Heng while the cold wind was blowing, but the other party didn't have the slightest intention to go into the house to warm up.It was cold anyway, and sitting would save a little more energy than standing, so Shen Ke endured the cold and sat still.
Shen Heng could see his movements clearly, he wanted to stand up after sitting down but didn't dare, his face was not so supple earlier, the expression was surprisingly similar to when he was young.Shen Heng was not in the mood to sit on a stone chair in the winter, and stood firmly against the withered grape trellis with his arms folded.
Some people can only keep silent when they sit facing each other because they are not good at talking, just like Xiao Daoluan.But Shen Heng is obviously a businessman, and he can deal with people of all levels and schools, so he can say whatever he wants, so it is undoubtedly intentional for Shen Ke to be so cold.
Shen Ke twisted his body to make himself sit more comfortably.He didn't know the purpose of his elder brother asking him out after the meal, so he made up his mind that he couldn't fight against me.It just so happened that he hadn't seen Shen Heng for many years, so he took a good look at him while the two of them were silent.
Shen Heng is six years older than him, and is in his early thirties now.He has a successful career and has a good wife and children, which makes him look energetic, with the prudence and shrewdness of a businessman in his high spirits, which is completely different from Shen Ke's foolishness.
It seems that the difference between the brothers of the same mother can be seen from an early age.Although it may be Shen Ke who is making trouble, Shen Heng occasionally makes mistakes once or twice.It was precisely because Shen Heng blamed Shen Ke too much on weekdays, and no one wanted to believe the one or two honest confessions.On the contrary, Shen Ke, who was honestly watching the excitement from the sidelines, was thought to be ungrateful for being protected by his elder brother, so he was arrested and taught a good lesson.
Shen Ke remembered what happened when he was a child, and he was distracted for a while, feeling a little resentful in his heart, and a little bit appeared on his face.Shen Heng kept watching, thinking that his brother had finally lost his composure, so he said, "It's not easy for me to ask you in front of my parents. Are you really planning to leave?"
Shen Ke felt that he had practiced outside for a while, and he had the courage to fight against his elder brother. He replied heartily: "Could it be that I was deceived a lot when I was young, and I am used to your problem? When I hear what I say, I have to ask whether it is true or not." .”
"You lied a lot when you were young..." Shen Heng suddenly smiled at Shen Ke, making the person sitting on the stone chair feel completely chilled, "Which time did I not see through?"
Sneaking into the kitchen to eat chicken, the big yellow dog who falsely accused the neighbor sneaked in, but was caught by his brother with a pair of paws still stained with chicken fat.I was lazy in winter and didn't want to go to a private school, so I made nonsense that my master was going to visit relatives in the countryside. My brother didn't believe it at all, so he grabbed him by the collar and took him to the school.
No matter how many ingenuities Shen Ke figured out, it seemed that he would be able to see the flaws at a glance in front of Shen Heng.
Repeated battles and repeated defeats, repeated defeats and repeated battles.
"If you really want to stay, give me a reason." Shen Heng said, "You have not been a peaceful person since you were a child, and now you are even more restless when you grow up. Parents will believe that you have changed your temper after ten years of going out. I don't believe it."
It is said that knowing a son is like a father, but their father's mind is thicker than a hundred-year-old tree, and he can't even figure out the temperament of the two brothers.The one who can really see through Shen Ke's mind is this elder brother who has played with him since he was a child.
Shen Ke carefully considered in his heart how much he wanted to reveal to his brother about the matter between himself and Xiao Daoluan.Don't say it's impossible, without a real reason, Shen Heng will definitely not believe that he is willing to live a stable life.If you want to say it, what is the most appropriate way to say it?
"So after all, your parents have lived decades longer than you." Shen Ke said with a smile, "If you want a reason, I will give you a reason. I have a crush on your brother and want to start a family."
Shen Heng was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect Shen Ke to give such an explanation.He originally thought that if the other party said that he was tired and didn't want to move anymore, he would retort and beat him hard.But the reason for starting a family...
Shen Heng frowned and said, "Where are people?"
When the servants of the Shen family rushed to his shop, they vividly described the scene of Shen Ke's return.Regardless of those extravagant decorations, it is true that Shen Ke came back alone.Besides, if Shen Ke brought back a young woman, my mother would have held her little hand and wept, so where would there be time to push Shen Ke to smoke?
Shen Ke frowned, and said: "There are still some things in his family, which have been delayed, and he will come back after a while. I thought that I still had a lot of things to deal with at home, so I came back first. The bride price, the wedding dress, These must be prepared first, right?"
Seeing the worry in Shen Ke's eyes, Shen Heng didn't know that he was worried about the safety of his "sister-in-law", but thought that the relationship between the two was not going well.Apart from other things, just seeing that the heartless younger brother can show this appearance, he also believes that there is indeed someone who can make Shen Ke give birth to a family.
"You and her... But what's wrong?" Shen Heng has been married for more than ten years, and now he is naturally an old couple. Even if he is teased about the things in the house, he can still blush without heartbeat.But before getting married, he was as calm as him, and he had to taste anxiety, worry, distress, sweetness, and anticipation all over the place.
Shen Ke said: "I like him, and he likes me, so what's wrong?"
Shen Heng disagreed and said: "It is rare for two people to be happy, but getting married is not such a simple matter...Aren't you going to tell your parents about this?"
Just now at the family banquet, Shen Ke didn't mention a word, which really didn't suit his temperament.Even if my younger brother picked up a copper coin on the road when he was a child, he would be proud for a long time when he returned home.Now picking up a daughter-in-law, everyone should know about it. How could it be so impenetrable?If he didn't intend to ask, Shen Ke might not have revealed it to others.
Reminiscent of Shen Ke's faintly worried expression, Shen Heng had a guess in his heart, and said seriously: "But her family is unwilling to betroth her to you?"
Xiao Daoluan's family?
Shen Ke remembered the meeting gift given to him by the old man of the armory, and shook his head.But then he remembered that those were not Xiao Daoluan's family, after all, Xiao Daoluan's nominal father, sword master Xiao He, he hadn't had a chance to meet yet.Will Xiao He agree with himself?Will their family of this kind pay attention to the right family, and insist on marrying Xiao Daoluan and Lianshan Guiyi's disciple?
Shen Ke's shaking head stopped.
Shen Heng thought that he had exposed Shen Ke's thoughts, and comforted the other party, saying: "Her family doesn't want to, so they think they value her. Although our family is not a rich family, we are also well-off. My parents only have two sons, and I Now that you have opened a cloth shop and moved out, you are considered a single-family household. The shop and paddy fields are all yours, and no one is fighting for them. Isn't it much better than those messy houses?"
"Although the parents say they have a bad temper, they have nothing to say about their kindness to the family. When your sister-in-law finished giving birth, the second elder helped her inside and out, so she didn't get tired in the slightest."
"You should be sincere and tell others all these words, so that they will not have any worries in their hearts. After all the preparations on this end are completed, you can go to the other person's house with a gift. As long as she is not a young lady from a high family, With our family's conditions, we can always be hired."
Shen Ke listened to Shen Heng finish a long paragraph in an extremely serious tone, and worked very hard to keep himself from laughing out loud.Shen Heng's words are naturally good, but it's a pity that Xiao Daoluan is indeed from a wealthy family...Young Master.
"Did you hear that?" Shen Heng said, "Since you plan to start a family, you should act like a family member, and don't spoil other girls in vain."
Before Shen Heng saw this "sister-in-law", he made up his mind to take care of her more after she got married.Shen Ke is not a few years younger than him, but he always feels that the other party is no different from when he was a child, and he doubts whether the other party can take good care of his wife.
Shen Ke trembled on the stone chair, and said in a deep voice, "Well, it's like being a family member."
Shen Heng didn't bother to figure out what kind of twisted thoughts the younger brother, who was not dignified, was thinking, he still said seriously according to his own thoughts: "Mother let you see those cousins, it seems inappropriate now, I will find a reason to push you away." Don't stay at home, run to the rice shop more, remember what you need to read and learn. Don't start a family, and you can't even support a wife."
Shen Ke said with a smile: "He is very easy to raise." There is no one who is easier to raise than Xiao Daoluan.
Shen Heng explained it again, to the effect that Shen Ke should take advantage of his youth to work hard when he has accepted his heart, and to start a family and start a career and a family are always inseparable.
Shen Ke responded repeatedly.Shen Heng agreed to help him solve the troubles of his sisters and sisters, so he felt that tonight was quite rewarding.
After sending his elder brother away, Shen Ke returned to the empty backyard and picked up the big iron sword that had been thrown down earlier.
The moonlight is lingling, the sword light is lingling.
