The medical concubine is blessed with good fortune and her husband's life is prosperous. The mo

Until this moment, Shen Dongyue felt that the Princess Ling in front of her was still her cousin Dong Su.

Only Dong Su could talk about the words that were suppressed in her heart and the things that made her painful and entangled, and she could only cry here.

Shen Dongsu wanted to hold her hand, but Shen Dongyue jerked it, with tears still hanging on her face, but she turned red with shame.

"I, I have frostbite, dirty."

Chilblains oozed yellow water. She washed them with carrot water and applied medicine before coming here. But compared to Dong Su's carefully cared for hands, her hands would be dirty when she really held them.

Shen Dongsu really felt sorry for this girl now. She was still under twenty years old, and what happened to her would be nothing in future generations.

But in this era, it can kill a girl! Without Grandpa Shen, Shen Dongyue would be worse off than dead now.

Shen Dongsu sighed softly, stood up and took out the chilblain ointment and cotton swabs. This time Shen Dongyue did not refuse and allowed her to apply it on herself.

She said softly while applying: "Ding Qi knows your past. He often went to Shenjia Village before and knows everything about you and your family."

"Since he proposed to you, it is natural that you have been working with him in the restaurant for more than a year, so that he can discover the shining points in you and decide that you are a good girl and he is willing to stay with you for the rest of his life."

"Look, he doesn't care about your past. Sister Dongyue, why do you want to trap yourself in the past?"

"Between men and women, as long as they are in love, there is no question of whether they are worthy or not. If you put it this way, am I worthy of Prince Ling?"

Shen Dongyue said hurriedly: "Of course you are worthy! Dong Su, you are very good, okay, you can match any man in the world."

These were her true words. After experiencing so many things and meeting all kinds of people, Shen Dongyue understood how good her cousin was.

Shen Dongsu laughed: "You are also very good, and you are equally worthy of any man in the world!"

Shen Dongyue blushed and lowered her head slightly, feeling the heat of frostbite on her hands turn into a slight chill.

She also has a bottle of such a cooling and moisturizing ointment. Ding Qi spent a lot of money to buy it as a gift to her. She didn't want to have it because it was too expensive.

Ding Qi said that if she didn't want it, just throw it away. He wouldn't give it to anyone else anyway.

Shen Dongsu asked softly: "Is this what Sister Dongyue's trouble is? Then my opinion is, if you like Ding Qi, then accept it.

If you don't like it, explain it to him.

If you feel awkward working together, I'll tell Shopkeeper Jia to transfer you to a hotpot restaurant in Yizhou. "

Shen Dongyue said hurriedly: "No, it's not that I don't like him."

Shen Dongsu laughed: "I knew it!"

While eating grilled buns, she told the story of how she first met Ding Qi. At that time, Ding Qi was still a teenager, but in order to save his sister, he dared to fight against the Zhang family.

She knew then that this young man was courageous and responsible, a responsible man.

Seeing that Shen Dongyue was hesitant to speak, Shen Dongsu understood that she was actually attracted to Ding Qi, and this was not what she wanted to ask for her help.

Waiting patiently for her own words, she took two citrus fruits shipped from Lingnan, roasted them on an iron rack until they were warm, then peeled them off and gave them to Shen Dongyue in half.

The two of them ate slowly, finished the sweet rice, cooked a pot of longan and red date milk tea, and poured a cup for Shen Dongyue.

Although he hasn't returned to Shenjia Village yet, eating food from his hometown and chatting with his family made Shen Dongsu relax wholeheartedly and began to enjoy a real vacation.

Anyone who has worked knows that when you are really busy, you actually have no time to be tired.

Only when I have some free time, that feeling of exhaustion comes over me, thinking about the feeling of being so busy before that my feet never touched the ground.

I really want to curse, what kind of life has my special mother been having this year!

Shen Dongsu was eating oranges and drinking milk tea here, unloading all the fatigue of the year, and quietly waiting for Shen Dongyue to speak.

Shen Dongyue didn't remain silent for too long. After eating half an orange, Shen Dongyue said softly: "Dong Su, I do have something that I want to ask you for help with."

Shen Dongsu handed her another half of an orange: "You tell me."

"I, I want to leave Gwangju."

Shen Dongsu was stunned for a moment: "Let me make it clear first, are you leaving alone or are you leaving with Ding Qi?"

Her face turned redder under the charcoal fire: "I was originally alone, but Ding Qi said that no matter where I go, he is willing to come with me."

Only then did she open up and talk about her long-standing plan. She knew very well that as long as she was in Gwangju, no matter who she married, no matter what kind of life she wanted to live, the past would haunt her like a gangrene. she.

She couldn't show up in public, and she would be criticized whenever she showed up. Even if she worked in a restaurant, she could only work in the back kitchen. Sometimes when the front was too busy, she would wrap her face with a headscarf when delivering food.

After all, Feng Wensheng's lawsuit was a rare one in decades. There were so many people in the county who had seen her at that time that she was easily recognized.

As long as she is recognized by others, she will not be able to live in peace in the future. There is also a crazy woman named Xiao who will definitely come to make noise.

If it only concerns herself, she can bear it, but she doesn't want Ding Qi to be pointed at, scolded for picking up broken shoes, being a cuckold, etc.

After all, her situation is different from her second marriage.

Therefore, she wanted to leave Gwangju and live in a place where no one knew her. After Ding Qi found out, he decided to go with her.

Since her sister married Chef Jia, she has lived a happy life with no worries about food and clothing. She and her little girl no longer need his care.

Moreover, he didn't want to keep working in his second aunt's restaurant. He saved up some money and went to a bigger city with Shen Dongyue. They could open a restaurant together and start a new life. There was no problem at all.

Shen Dongyue wanted to ask Shen Dongsu for help, but it was actually very small and simple. But for Shen Dongyue, it is crucial.

She wanted Shen Dongsu to arrange a route for her and Ding Qi, and help them reach a large city smoothly.

Yes, it is very troublesome for ordinary people to travel far these days. It is also very troublesome to find directions and proof of household registration. If no one is available to live in another state or city, it is also very troublesome to find official documents and other things.

Shen Dongsu smiled and said: "No problem! Have you decided where to go?"

Shen Dongyue regained her energy and relaxed completely: "Both Yizhou and Yangzhou are fine. If you ask me, it's better to stay far away."

That means I want to go to Yangzhou more.

Shen Dongsu nodded and said: "Then go to Yangzhou. My brother Dayu happens to be in Yangzhou, and you will have someone to take care of you there. When are you planning to go? Do you want to go after the wedding?"

Shen Dongyue said reservedly: "We won't have a big wedding, so we'll have a meal with his sister's family. We won't celebrate the New Year in Guangzhou. The county town is too lively this year, so I'm afraid of meeting people from our village."

Shen Dongsu naturally understands why this year is particularly lively. Princess Ling is celebrating the New Year in Gwangju this year! Even if she is not in the county seat, the county town's celebrations can come one after another.

Sighing softly: "Forget it for others, but my master, you still have to say something."

Shen Dongyue's eyes turned red again when she heard her grandpa. At present, the only person in the Shen family who still cares about her, except Shen Dongsu, is her grandpa.

She whispered: "My grandfather knows that Ding Qi went to the workshop to get vermicelli and met my grandfather alone."

Shen Dongsu was relieved: "That's good!"

"I'm sorry for grandpa. When we have established a foothold in Yangzhou, I will definitely take grandpa to live in Yangzhou when I have the opportunity. I will honor him well."

Shen Dongsu got up and went to get the gifts, a few bolts of satin, a set of gold and jade headdresses, and twenty taels of gold ingots, all put into a box.

To Shen Dongyue: "I'll put some makeup on you, don't say no, you'll put some makeup on me when I get married!"

Shen Dongyue waved her hands quickly: "Don't be embarrassed! I will embroider some purses for you..."

Shen Dongsu interrupted her: "We sisters, we all have our own thoughts. How hard it was for you back then, you still embroidered so many purses for me."

"You go to Yangzhou and start your life from scratch. Everything requires money. Don't refuse. When you settle down in Yangzhou, I will visit you when I have the chance."

Shen Dongyue pursed her lips, her expression changed from shameful to aggrieved, and suddenly she hugged Shen Dongsu and burst into tears, crying so hard that she couldn't breathe, as if she wanted to vent all her grievances.

It’s like washing away the past with tears and regaining a new life...

Shen Dongyue was picked up by Ding Qi the next morning. Shen Dong had never seen Ding Qi, but Shen Linzhong did.

At the same time, Ding Qi regarded Shen Linzhong as Shen Dongyue's biological brother and proposed marriage to him.

In this way, Shen Dongyue and Ding Qi quietly got married, quietly left Guangzhou, and went to Yangzhou to start a new life.

Besides, Shen Dongsu returned to Shenjia Village the next day, and the large team of Forbidden Army was taken away by Jiasi. These Forbidden Army had to deliver Princess Ling safely to Youzhou before returning to Chang'an.

As for the royal guards and maids, most of them went to the palace to be accommodated by Butler Liu. She only brought a few dozen of them back to Shenjia Village.

She was still far away from the village, and she saw firecrackers placed along the road from a distance. She asked her elder brother: "Is there anyone getting married in the village?"

Shen Linzhong smiled and said: "No, it is..."

Before he finished speaking, someone shouted: "The princess's car has arrived!"

Then I saw fires and cannons being set off, the crackling sound of cannons, the sound of gongs and drums, and the villagers running out of the village to watch the fun.

It was even more lively than when she got married! Yue Jian said sincerely: "Princess, people in your hometown welcome you so much!"

Shen Dongsu smiled awkwardly, this situation wouldn't last until the day she left, right? In this case, she doesn't want to spend the New Year at home.

Seeing that the roads in the village were well built, she wanted to get off the carriage and walk home slowly with Yue Mi, even though the winter in her hometown was gray and there was no scenery to see.

But she still wanted to introduce Yue Jian to her family’s fields, grandpa’s lotus pond, and the waterwheels along the river...

Now he could only sit in the carriage without showing his face until he arrived at the gate of Shen's house. Grandpa Shen came out to hand out candies and dried fruits to the villagers who were watching.

After convincing the villagers to leave, Shen Dongsu got out of the car.

She couldn't help but shed tears when she saw her grandpa. His hair was all white and he was as thin as an old pine tree.

But he was still in good spirits, his steps were windy, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle.

"Grandma!"

"Donsu."

Shen Dongsu stepped forward and held Grandpa's arm. There were tears in Grandpa Shen's eyes, but he said with a smile:

"Good boy, why are you so thin? Go home quickly, I will make you a goose stew!"

Then she heard the big white goose that was guarding the house quacking twice, and the little black dog wagging its tail happily around her.

Just like every time she came back from the palace before, the little black dog and the big white goose met on the river embankment.

Grandpa Shen smiled and lightly kicked the big white goose: "I'm not eating you!"

"I raised a pond of geese and ducks and stewed them every day for my granddaughter to eat. I don't need to eat you, an old guy!"

The big white goose squawked and ran away. At this moment, Shen Dongsu felt that he was really home!

Father Shen walked out from behind Grandpa Shen and called out in the same choked voice: "Dong Su."

Shen Dongsu bowed: "Father."

It is really difficult for her to be as close to Father Shen who knows her true identity as she is to Grandpa Shen. Likewise, it is difficult for Father Shen to be intimate with his daughter.

He nodded and said: "You must have suffered along the way! It's such a cold day, go home and warm yourself by the fire."

Grandpa Shen still smiles kindly, Father Shen is still distant but considerate, and then...

"You are the princess now, why do you bring so many people with you when you go home? I heard that when the princess goes home to visit relatives, there can be hundreds of people to clear the way!"

Jiang stood on tiptoe and looked back. Indeed, only a few dozen people came, and they only brought two carriages of gifts. She was very dissatisfied.

She has blown away the bullshit. When her daughter comes home, she will bring at least hundreds of servants and dozens of carloads of gifts.

Shen Dongsu rolled his eyes quietly. Sure enough, Jiang's meanness would be late, but not late.

"Can our house accommodate hundreds of people?" she said as she helped Grandpa Shen walk into the house.

Jiang choked and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhong Yang. He jumped in front of Shen Dongsu and shouted: "Sister!"

Shen Dongsu was overjoyed and pulled him over to sign: "You are as tall as me!"

It's no exaggeration, this child has reached her eyebrows! A year at most, definitely more than Shen Dongsu.

She smiled at her grandfather and said, "It seems that you have eaten all your ducks. Look at how old Zhongyang is."

Xiaohu and Xiaoman were still a little cautious after all. They stood behind Zhongyang and called out softly: "Sister Dongsu."

The two little guys have also grown a lot. The clothes Shen Dongsu bought for them before were too small, but because they were made of good materials, they were reluctant to throw them away.

Mrs. Jiang had her clothes changed to a bigger size, and now the sleeves and hem of her clothes were patched up a bit.

"Hey! You've grown taller, and Xiaohu's hair has grown so long. My sister has brought you a lot of gifts!"

It was lunch time when we arrived at Shen's house. The person in charge today was actually Sister Damai, but she was quickly taken over by the palace cook led by Shen Dongsu.

Damai participated in the family's chat and said that her three aunts, Dalian and Shanshan would all come later and have mutton hot pot together at Shen's house.

After not seeing each other for more than a year, everyone had endless things to say, but as soon as Shen Dongsu opened her mouth, everyone looked at her quietly and listened to her words.

She didn't feel uncomfortable, just like when she saw Shen Dongyue yesterday, she knew very well that just because of Princess Ling's identity, the family would not be able to speak as freely as before in this life.

Even Mr. Jiang no longer quarrels with her, and whenever Mr. Jiang opens his mouth, he will be interrupted by Zhong Yang or Father Shen.

Only Grandpa Shen still looked at her with a smile as before, his eyes full of kindness unchanged.

Afraid that she would be tired, Grandpa Shen asked her to take a nap after lunch so that they could have a good chat in the long afternoon.

Shen Dongsu lived in her own three suites. She took Yue Jian to see them and said with a smile:

"This is my new house. It was just built. I didn't even live in it for a few days before I married into the prince's palace."
