<h4>Chapter 271 - Look Where Her Love Brought Her</h4>
" are you alright?" thedy sitting opposite to the man in the carriage asked. Thedy''s dark, lively eyes coated with worry as she looked at her husband. They have been on road for more than two weeks and it would take another three weeks for them to reach their hometown from the capital if her husband caught a chill then it will be twice as troublesome for her. In the middle of the road, where will she bring a physician to check up on her husband?
"I am alright " waving his hand the tall and muscr man smiled at his wife with an indulging expression, which didn''t suit his dark and fierce face at all, and when he smiled at his wife, the scar on his eyes made him look even more fierce than before if anyone other than madam Zhu was sitting in front of him, the person might have ended up crying - only God knows how many times their sons cried when they were little kids all because their father smiled at them.
This man was none other than Su Wan''s eldest maternal uncle Shen Junxi, who owned quite a several numbers of butcheries in the town.
Shen Junxi, who had gone to the capital with his brother to check whether or not the capital had a suitable market for him to open another branch of his Xian Rou butchery, was finally done checking the capital storefronts and was on his way to return to his hometown.
His younger siblings still had some matter to deal with this, they stayed back. Actually, Eldest Uncle Shen also wanted to stay behind with his two brothers because it wasn''t easy for him to get a break from managing his butcheries, but for some reaso, his heart has been unsettled for the past two months. He couldn''t help but feel like he was losing something important - and worse of all, he was dreaming of his sister and his niece.
In his dreams, the two of them were waiting for him on the other side of the river. Shen Shui, her he could understand but Su Wan? that little girl? ...how can she be there! Eldest Uncle Shen was totally freaked out by his own dreams and despite his brothers trying to bring him to other storefronts he resolutely refused and boarded his carriage to return to Dong Tong town.
He had left some of his men behind if something happened to Su Wan then the benefactor from the '' Zhou'' vige would definitely tell his men about such a big thing - he believed in his men and the benefactor whom he left behind to take care of Su Wan, he knew in his mind that everything must be fine but - his heart, it wouldn''t just settle down! Thus, to make sure that everything was alright and his niece was fine, Eldest Uncle Shen decided to go and check it out by himself.
" Are you really alright? " asked Madam Zhu again, her brows were scrunched up as she examined her husband''splexion " if you are not feeling alright then you should speak up who knows what will happen if you keep it to yourself. The weather is already so cold if you have caught a chill then it''s better to get it treated rather than leaving it just like that. Don''t think that just because you are sturdy and strong you won''t get sick, such carelessness is the foundation of lingering long term sickness. And you are no longer that young old man if you are not feeling? well then you need to get your cold treated"
" Who''s an old man?" demanded Eldest Uncle Shen" believe it not, this old man is still hale and hearty enough to make you scream my name right here, right now"
"You old pervert! " Madam Zhu blushed and hurriedly darted a nce at the carriage door when she saw that no one listened to her husband''s boastful ims she pped Eldest Uncle Shen on his shoulder " I''m worried that you will catch a cold and you... You are really.. our sons are riding in the carriage right behind ours, speak properly"
"Humph, they are already at their marriageable age what do they not know? " snorted Eldest Uncle Shen unhappily, after being scolded by his wife? " and I was speaking properly alright? You were the one who called me an old man. Don''t you know that calling a man old is a taboo? You should never ever call a man old "
"An Oldman is an old man what''s there to -...- alright, alright you are not old " Though Madam Zhu liked teasing her husband every then and now, she knew her limit. Seeing that her husband''s expression was worsening, she hurriedly changed her words worried that her coochie will be messed up by this old man in his old age "anyway, are you really going to check up on Wan Wan? If you are then remember to check up on her properly this time. Don''t just stalk her like a lecherous pervert this time or else I won''t clear it up for you "
Thest time when Oldest Uncle Shen went to check up on Su Wan was when she was ten, because of some '' unfortunate misunderstandings'' Oldest Uncle Shen didn''t look for Su Wan outright instead he stalked her like a pervy leech from behind the trees. And if stalking his niece wasn''t bad enough, he was caught by the vigers and chased down by them. Luckily, Madam Zhu came to the Dong Tong town with him and exined to the vigers that Oldest Uncle Shen meant no harm.
" It''s not my fault! That damn stupid girl was the one who refused to ept me as her uncle, she is just like her stupid mother not understanding who is wrong and who is right for her. At that time when that idiotic woman stubbornly insisted on marrying that bastard didn''t I refuse? Did she listen to me? No! '' Big brother he loves me '', '' big brother we are in love, he is good to me, '' h, h, h. Look where her love brought her " said Oldest Uncle Shen bitterly, his expression full of grieve and sorrow "if only she listened to me and married that heir of the Xu family instead, she would have lived like a Queen instead of bing worm food beneath six feet down "
" I understand how you feel but you are in the wrong too, if you remained by her side instead of breaking off your rtions with her. That Su - bastard wouldn''t have dared to treat your sister so badly like that " Madam Zhu wanted to call Su Bai by his name but under her husband''s re she changed it back to bastard.. Of course, the name Su Bai was taboo to in the Shen family even her mother inw cursed the Su family from morning to night by calling them bastards.
