Soon after Yun Sheng left, Mrs. Shen came to see Shen Yanci.
"What's going on between you and Jiaojiao?" Mrs. Shen asked seriously.
Just now downstairs, another lady told her that Yun Sheng and Shen Yanci kissed in front of everyone. She was so frightened that she quickly asked for details. It turned out that the kiss was from the side of the face.
Although the two grew up together, their relationship was not close due to the five-year age difference and Shen Yanci's cynical and arrogant sister.
So Mrs. Shen was shocked when she heard that the two of them kissed in public, even if they kissed on the face.
I really couldn't help but plan to ask.
Shen Yanci knew what she was asking and replied nonchalantly: "Just saying hello, what's the matter?"
Seeing her son's lukewarm answer, Mrs. Shen didn't believe his words, "I watched you grow up, how can I not know your character?" Then she looked serious and said solemnly: "Don't forget that you are brother and sister. , you have to know how to measure."
Shen Yanci twirled the ring on her finger and said in a deep voice, "What kind of sister is a sister who is not related by blood?"
"Okay, my dear mother, go find your new sweetheart Yulan, don't hold on to this matter." Shen Yanci said and pushed Shen's mother out of the room.
Mrs. Shen was angry and laughing at the same time. She had been like this since she was a child. As long as he didn't want to hear it, she would make fun of him. Forget it, her son was so old, talking too much would affect the relationship between mother and son.
The banquet lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon, and Yun Sheng left the Shen family after lunch. I packed a dessert from outside and returned to Wu's house.
The Wu family had a small pig farm and hired someone to take care of it, so Wu Ci and Shen Yulan bought a small house with two bedrooms and one living room in the city to facilitate Shen Yulan's schooling.
When Yun Sheng returned home, she saw Wu Ci cleaning up the housework. The clothes that Yun Sheng had piled on the bed before going out were also put into the closet. She kept the small house clean.
"Mom, why don't you sit down and have a rest, and I'll do it with you when I come back?"
Wu Ci felt sweet in her heart when she heard this voice. Her daughter used to be a wealthy daughter. How could she let her do housework? Even if Shen Yulan was at home, she would never let her do any work.
Yun Sheng held Wu Ci's hand and sat on the sofa, took out the dessert and opened the package, "I bought the dessert you like, come and try it."
Looking at the delicate little cake in front of her, Wu Ci felt heat surge in her eyes. She restrained her emotions and asked, "How do you know I like to eat this."
"I asked Shen Yulan, and she told me." In fact, Yun Sheng asked about her home system on the way back.
Hearing Shen Yulan's name, Wu Ci's expression became much gloomier. Shen Yulan has not contacted her this month. Although she is not her biological daughter, she raised her with her own hands. Compared with the relationship between Wu Jiaojiao and Mrs. Shen, Wu Ci obviously has deeper feelings for Shen Yulan.
The two mothers have different backgrounds, and the emotions they invest in their two daughters are naturally different.
Shen Yanci and Wu Jiaojiao were raised by nannies since they were young. The young Mrs. Shen is a reporter and is very busy at work. After marrying Shen Changan, she has enjoyed the life of a wealthy family. The two have also received elite education since they were young. , spent more time with Shen Changan than her mother.
But Wu Ci was very different. She lost her husband in her early years, ran a pig farm by herself, and acted as both a father and a mother to Shen Yulan. She had an outstanding appearance, and many people liked her when she was young, but she thought The young Shen Yulan didn't want her daughter to live a life of dependence on others, so she refused. As time went by, she no longer had the idea of finding a partner, and guarded her daughter to live a comfortable life for the two of them.
"How is Yulan?"
Yun Sheng changed out of her dress and walked out of the room in home clothes when she heard Wu Ci's question.
"She's very good. If you miss her, call her or call her home for dinner. I don't have any objection." After that, he took a glass of water.
Seeing that Wu Ci didn't speak again, Yun Sheng took the water glass and went back to the bedroom to rest.
Hearing his daughter's unconcerned words, Wu Ci moved her fingers, turned on her cell phone and dialed Shen Yulan's number. The call got through, but no one answered until the ringing stopped.
Today is her engagement party, so she might be busy, but then she thinks about it, her adopted daughter’s engagement has nothing to do with her, and only she knows the sadness of it.
When Yun Sheng returned to the bedroom, she turned on her phone and scrolled through happy videos. Her annual leave ended in a week.
The system saw Wu's mother on the sofa who was dejected, and asked in confusion:
[Host, why don’t Shen Yulan contact Wu Ci for a month? Aren’t their mother and daughter dependent on each other? 】
Yun Shenghua pulled the video.
[Both mother and daughter are sensitive people. Precisely because they have a better relationship than ordinary mothers and daughters, they are even less likely to speak. 】
The system was still puzzled. Before it could ask, Yun Sheng continued:
[Do you know a word called shyness in close proximity to home? After Shen Yulan found out that she was not Wu Ci's daughter, she felt unbelievable and secretly expected her true identity. She chose not to tell Wu's mother, whom she had always depended on, but to an outsider named Zhang Yijie.
It is enough to see that her status as the true daughter of the Shen family created an invisible barrier between her and Wu's mother.
Coupled with the return of my biological daughter, she doesn't know how to get along with Wu's mother.
As long as there is no contact, you can avoid contact with Wu's mother. In the same way, Mother Wu's mentality was that she didn't know how to get along with this daughter. 】
During dinner, while Wu Ci peeked at her cell phone for the 108th time, waiting for Shen Yulan's call back, Yun Sheng finally couldn't help but dial the other party's number with her own cell phone.
This number was saved by each other when the two families sat together.
The phone beeped twice and was quickly picked up, "Hello, Jiaojiao?"
"It's me, Mom wants to talk to you." Yun Sheng handed the phone to Wu's mother.
At this time, Wu Ci also realized who was on the other end of the phone and waved her hands desperately not to answer. Yun Sheng had to hold the phone to her ear.
Having no choice, Wu Ci hesitated and said, "Lan Lan... did the engagement party go well today?"
In fact, she could have asked Yun Sheng, who had gone to the scene, this question, but Wu Ci rubbed her palms and couldn't find anything else to say except to ask her what happened today.
A positive reply came from the other end of the phone, and then both of them were silent for about a minute or two. Yun Sheng couldn't stand it anymore, took back the phone and said calmly: "Mom misses you. No matter how busy you are, come back to see her more often. "
After getting a positive reply from the other party, hang up the phone.
Now Yun Sheng could finally sit down and eat in peace.
Seeing that her daughter had no grudges and acted decisively, Wu Ci felt moved and pleased. Then she picked up the meal in front of her and ate it happily.
The Shen family was also having a meal.
Father Shen pricked up his ears when he heard Shen Yulan's words "Jiaojiao". Seeing her hang up the phone, he asked, "Did Jiaojiao call just now? What did she say?"
"She said she wanted me to go home more often." Shen Yulan carefully considered her words and decided not to call Wu Ci "mom" in front of her biological mother, Mrs. Shen.
But several people present also knew the meaning. It was probably because Wu Ci missed his daughter and was too embarrassed to call, so he sent the message directly with his delicate temperament.
Shen Changan nodded after hearing this, "If you have nothing to do, go back and take a look."
