On the second day of the New Year, there were very few people on the streets. 13579246810ggaax
As Shen Liangchuan drove, his gaze was fixed on Qiao Lian.
Neither of them spoke. As Shen Liangchuan was thinking, Qiao Lian suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
Shen Liangchuan's pupils shrank and he turned his head.
Qiao Lian looked at him steadily. After a while, she said, "It's the New Year, we can't visit Senior Master empty-handed. I saw that the fruit shop is open, let's go and buy some fruits."
Shen Liangchuan wanted to say no, but when he met Qiao Lian's gaze, his eyes flashed and he nodded.
They stopped the car by the roadside and went to the fruit shop to buy some fruits.
Shen Liangchuan stood next to her, sizing her up.
Because she was buying fruits for the old man, she was especially careful and serious about her choices.
Qiao Lian only paid after she had made her selection.
Following this, they arrived at the Shen family mansion without a hitch.
This was Qiao Lian's first time at the Shen family mansion.
Unlike their Jiangnan home, the old mansion in Beijing was a courtyard house.
It was a huge courtyard house in the city center.
It occupied a large area and one look was enough to tell that the Shen family had a lot of resources.
Qiao Lian had never been to a place like this, so she was very curious about the surroundings.
The courtyard houses here were also different from the courtyard houses they had seen when they were strolling around.
Although the building had a rich history, it had been renovated. It didn't look like a dilapidated house, but instead gave off a sense of awe and veneration.
The car stopped at the first courtyard house.
When they got out of the car, an old butler in his seventies came to welcome them. When he saw Shen Liangchuan, his face lit up with joy. "Young Master, you're here!"
But when he saw Qiao Lian, he paused and asked, "This is … Young Madam?"
Obviously, Senior Master had only asked Shen Liangchuan to come and had not expected him to bring Qiao Lian along.
Qiao Lian smiled at the butler and nodded.
Shen Liangchuan said calmly, "Grandpa Cai, you don't have to address me as Young Master. I no longer have anything to do with the Shen family."
The old butler was taken aback by these cold and distant words. Then he sighed deeply.
"Young Master, in my heart, you are the eldest young master of our family."
Shen Liangchuan didn't comment on this and followed the butler into the house.
Qiao Lian followed behind him and after walking for a while, they arrived at the courtyard where the Senior Master lived.
When they reached the doorway, they could see a group of people standing outside. It was Shen Xiu, Mei Feng and Shen Zihao.
She frowned. What were the three of them doing here?
As she was puzzled, Shen Liangchuan explained, "After he got married, he moved from the family home to the Shen villa. From then on, the two sides lived separately. Every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we come to pay our respects and have a reunion dinner on the second day of the Lunar New Year. "
Qiao Lian: …
Qiao Lian felt that the relationship between Shen Xiu and the Senior Master was a little distant.
How could a father and son behave like this?
She shook her head and followed him into the house. She heard Shen Xiu frowning and looking impatiently at the housekeeper. "Senior Master is still practicing Tai Chi?"
"Yes, sir. Every day at this time, the old man would practice for two hours."
Shen Xiu waved his hand impatiently.
The three of them continued to wait outside the courtyard. Although they were impatient, they didn't dare to show any reluctance.
Shen Xiu turned around when he heard footsteps. When he saw Shen Liangchuan and Qiao Lian, he immediately narrowed his eyes.
