Chapter 111 - 111 Shen Yao Is Very Good
111 Shen Yao Is Very Good
“Second Sister-in-law, I didn’t…” Ji Zhao’s face turned red. She and Shen Yao were innocent previously and had not consummated their marriage at all. How could they have a child?
“Ah Tao, don’t be shy in front of Mother and Second Sister-in-law,” Second Sister-in-law Shen said happily. “But Ah Tao, you and Third Brother don’t stay in the same room every day. You can’t have children, right?”
Ji Zhao was tired. She felt that if she continued to explain, it would only make things worse, right?
“Ah Tao, what do you think of Third Brother?” Zhao Lanhua could not suppress the emotions in her heart. She hurriedly looked into Ji Zhao’s eyes and asked softly, “Mother is really not bragging. Third Brother is my son. I know him. Third Brother is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. If you spend more time with him, you will discover his good points!”
“Mother, Second Sister-in-law.” Ji Zhao smiled and said softly, “Shen Yao is very good. I understand.”
“Alright, alright!” Hearing this, Zhao Lanhua instantly beamed with joy.
As long as Ah Tao and Third Brother were interested in each other, she would be completely relieved.
The evening wind blew the willows, and colorful clouds filled the sky.
After waking up from her afternoon nap, Ji Zhao’s gaze inadvertently landed on the pot of gardenias placed under the window.
The bud quietly bloomed, and the elegant fragrance of flowers filled the entire room.
Ji Zhao did not even realize that the corners of her lips had curled up slightly.
Night fell silently, and the dark night sky was filled with bright stars.
Shen Dashan, who was the last to put down his bowl and chopsticks, burped in satisfaction.
“Ever since Ah Tao took over all the chores in the kitchen, our family’s appetite has increased.”
Zhao Lanhua smiled and teased, “Ah Tao, your braised chicken is too delicious!”
“I think Ah Tao’s culinary skills are even better than the chefs in the prefectural city’s restaurants!” Second Sister-in-law Shen narrowed her eyes and praised from the bottom of her heart.
Ji Zhao couldn’t help but smile. She accepted all the praises from the Shen family.
After all, her culinary skills were indeed very good!
“Ah Tao, I went to the village chief’s house this afternoon. I’ve found out about the homestead you asked about,” Shen Dashan said happily.
“Really?” Ji Zhao was extremely excited. “Can we really buy a homestead?”
“I wouldn’t say buy. To be honest, if Uncle Huzi hadn’t reminded me, I would have forgotten about this,” Shen Dashan said with a smile. “Isn’t there a large piece of empty land on the right side of our courtyard?”
“Aiya!” Zhao Lanhua also remembered and said excitedly, “That’s right. That empty space is also our family’s land. How could we have forgotten?”
Other than Shen Dashan and his wife, everyone else present was stunned.
“The empty space on the right of our courtyard was originally our home base!”
Back then, in order to get married and start a family, Shen Dashan had spent all his savings to build such a courtyard.
“At that time, the money on hand was too tight.” Recalling back then, Shen Dashan’s tone was a little sad. “Your grandparents passed away early, so I could only rely on my own hands. God treated me well, and somehow I got to know your mother. Later, in order to marry your mother, I spent all my savings and borrowed from everyone I could to build this courtyard!”
“Your mother blessed me. In less than five years, she raised three fat boys for me!” Shen Dashan said proudly, “In the entire Shanghe Village, I, Shen Dashan, have the most sons!”
