Chapter 208 Grandmother

Shen Yu saw the old lady from afar, and the tearful red girl beside her. She ran closer, dismounted from her horse, and threw off the reins.

"Grandma."

"Auntie." Mrs. Lu wanted to go down the steps to get a closer look at her, but she almost missed her step and was held by Shen Yu who rushed over.

The grandfather and grandson held hands and looked at each other. The old lady was already in tears. Shen Yu's eyes were red, but there were too many people at the door, so she held back her tears.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back." Old Mrs. Lu looked her up and down and said, "Why have you lost so much weight?"

"It's because I've grown taller." Shen Yu stepped up and stood on the same step as her grandmother. She was indeed half a head taller than the old lady.

Old Mrs. Lu cried and laughed, "I have grown a lot taller."

Shen Zhao hugged Yu Wanqiu and dismounted, crossed his arms and watched the grandfather and grandson chatting.

"Hey." Shen Zhao said: "If you dare to love me, just call me because I am worthy of my name? Old lady, are you too partial?"

Mrs. Lu laughed and stretched out her hand towards him.

Shen Zhao put down his arms and walked over. Knowing that he was tall, he took the initiative to bend down in front of Mrs. Lu and put his head close to let her touch her.

Mrs. Lu touched his head and couldn't help but cry again when she saw his thin shoulders.

A person next to me advised: "Mom, the doctor said you are not in good health, so don't get too excited."

The person who spoke was Mrs. Lu's adoptive son from the clan. Although he was not his biological son, he was regarded as Shen Yu's uncle Lu Shi.

Standing next to him was a woman and a young man, Lu Jiaheng, Lu Shi's son.

Shen Yu said hello one by one, "Uncle, aunt, cousin."

"Hey." Aunt Zhang responded, wiping the unnecessary tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Sister, I'm finally back. The old lady has been looking forward to her day and night, and finally she has someone here."

Lu Jiaheng handed over his hand and said, "My cousin and cousin have suffered along the way."

Yu Wanqiu looked at the happy family in front of him and felt that he was in a situation where he could not speak up and his status was embarrassing.

She had thought about these scenes along the way, and even thought about them more, but when she really stood here, she regretted coming.

Shen Zhao seemed to have noticed something. When he turned around and saw Yu Wanqiu stopped moving forward, he felt that he was not careful enough.

"Late Qiu." He walked over and took her hand, leading him to the old lady, "Grandma, this is, is..."

He didn't know what to call her appropriately. He was afraid that Yu Wanqiu would think she was frivolous if he said it too close, and he was afraid that others would look down on her if he said it too far.

"It's my sister-in-law." Shen Yu took his words and told a white lie, "They have already performed a simple ceremony in the capital. When they return to Hezhou, they will have to be arranged by my grandmother to avoid wronging my sister-in-law."

Yu Wanqiu's face turned red instantly, but she was grateful to Shen Yu, so her identity was not so embarrassing.

The old lady looked at Yu Wanqiu with a kind look and smiled. She said "good" repeatedly while smiling. She took Yu Wanqiu's hand and patted the back of her hand before handing it to Shen Zhao.

Shen Yu helped Old Mrs. Lu, "Grandma, it's windy outside, please go inside first."

"Look at me." Old Mrs. Lu said, "I'm so happy that I forgot."

Old Mrs. Lu is over seventy this year. In fact, her health is not bad. She was really ill a few days ago. Shen Yu was in Beijing at that time and was worried about how to send Shen Zhao away. The letter from Hezhou arrived. It was timely rain. After such a long time, the disease was cured.

Shen Yu helped Old Mrs. Lu walk in front.

After walking for a while, the old lady remembered and turned around and said, "You don't have to follow me. Ayu and Zhao'er have been running all the way and have to rest for a while before catching up with the wind and dust in the evening."

Even Shen Zhao blushed because of the word "couple". He glanced at Yu Wanqiu beside him and saw her head slightly lowered, her ears already red.

"I, I..." He hesitated.

Yu Wanqiu slightly raised his head to look at him and whispered, "I know."

Old Mrs. Lu waited at the door all morning. Shen Yu helped Old Mrs. Lu back to the hospital to rest.

The Lu Mansion is huge, even bigger than the Prince's Mansion in the north of the capital. There is a small hill in the backyard, and there are all kinds of pavilions and pavilions.

Mrs. Lu chatted with Shen Yu for a while, asking questions from Beilin Prince's Palace to Beilin Crown Prince.

"I heard that he is not in good health. Is it true?"

Shen Yu said: "It's not particularly bad. You can't see it when you're not sick."

"That's good, that's good." Old Mrs. Lu leaned back on the pillow with confidence, "It won't affect fertility."

"Ouch, I accidentally said what I was thinking." Old Mrs. Lu patted her head, "Look, my brain is getting worse as I get older."

"Grandma." Shen Yu prolonged her tone with a speechless expression.

When Mrs. Lu was doing business in her early years, she also followed her men around the world. Naturally, her thoughts were not restricted by ordinary women in the boudoir, and she was open-minded about everything.

"Let's not talk about you first, let's talk about your brother." Old Mrs. Lu said again: "What about your sister-in-law? I think she is a lovely girl, and she is beautiful. She is worthy of our Zhao'er. , It doesn’t matter what your family background is, our family doesn’t seek power, and we don’t lack money.”

"My brother is considered a high achiever." Shen Yu said matter-of-factly: "My sister-in-law is the direct daughter of Taifu Yu's family."

Mrs. Lu thought about it, "The Yu family is a big family."

"That's right." Shen Yu nodded.

"Then she can be sent to the palace to become a royal concubine."

"That's right." Shen Yu said: "My brother is a military general who has been away from home all year round. No rich lady would be willing to follow her around. And at that time, everyone thought that my brother was gone. Miss Yu traveled thousands of miles from Shengjing to Yanliang Guan has been looking for someone for several months.”

"besides……"

Shen Yu specially picked the one and praised Yu Wanqiu so much that the grandfather and grandson chatted for a while. Old Mrs. Lu felt sleepy and fell asleep while talking.

Shen Yu put down the tent gently, and as soon as she stepped out the door, Shen Zhao pulled her to the side.

"Didn't grandma ask you to have a rest?" Shen Yu asked in surprise.

Shen Zhao looked helpless, "You said that, the maid arranged for Miss Yu and me to live in a courtyard, and I..."

"Wouldn't that be better?"

"What's good?" Shen Zhao pulled her away, lowered his voice and reprimanded: "You are ruining her reputation."

Shen Yu rolled her eyes at him, "You are really a martial artist."

"how do I say this?"

Shen Yu raised her head slightly, "Then let me ask you, if I don't say this, what are you going to say?"

Shen Zhao said seriously: "Let's just say that she and I are in love, and I want to ask my grandmother to make the decision."

Shen Yu really wanted to give Shen Zhao a hammer to wake him up, "If you say this, it will be difficult for her to raise her head in the house from now on."

Shen Zhao really didn't understand these twists and turns in the inner house, "What do you mean?"

"Coming all the way to Hezhou with you without a matchmaker or retainer is like eloping with you. What will others think of her?"

Shen Zhao thought about it and shouted: "They dare!"

"I dare not do it in front of you, but what about behind your back?"

Shen Zhao was silent, and he had to admit that she was right.

Shen Yu patted his arm, "I just complimented my sister-in-law in there. You have to treat me to a drink tomorrow."

Shen Zhao knew her intention of doing this.

If he marries Yu Wanqiu, Yu Wanqiu will be with the old lady at home in the future. Shen Yu has established a good relationship with her and left a good impression as a foundation, so that they can get along with each other better in the future.

"Ayu." Shen Zhao looked at her.

"Ah, you, go back quickly." Shen Yu urged, "Sister Yu has just arrived in the house, and everything is not familiar to her yet. She is very sensitive. She will think too much if you run out like this."
