Chapter 231 Marquis Boyang, You Have a Good Life

Boyanghou helped the old lady to go to the backyard. After receiving the news that they were coming, Boyanghou asked Liu to tidy up the Manfang Garden in the backyard for the old lady, and Shen Heting went to live with him in the frontyard.

Boys came and went to pack their luggage, and the Boyang Hou Mansion suddenly became lively.

Shen Heting looked around while walking, the expression on his face was sometimes nostalgic and sometimes gloomy.

This is the place where he has lived for many years. He is very familiar with every plant and tree here, but looking at it right now, it feels strange.

When he walked up the corridor, he couldn't hold back his sarcasm: "The Hou's mansion is very different now, seeing how much richer it is, it seems that the Hou Ye is indeed doing well in Jindu, with his back to the Zhen Guogong's mansion. This big tree is good for shade."

Liu's complexion changed instantly, and the barely maintained smile was completely shattered. She walked to Bo Yanghou, tugged at his sleeve, and begged.

Boyanghou couldn't bear it, he turned his head and scolded: "Second Brother, what do you mean by this? If Qing has passed away for many years, we have also cut off contact with the Duke of Zhen Guo. Now everything in the mansion is earned by myself, how can I enjoy the cool? Say it?"

"Besides——" he held Liu's hand, and said solemnly: "Now the head of the house is Qiuying. When you say this, don't you take her seriously? She is also your younger brother and sister."

"Siblings?" Shen Heting sneered, "My siblings are dead."

"You—" Liu Qiuying's face turned livid from anger, and Shen Hanyu couldn't listen any longer. He raised his hand to stop Liu Shi, stepped forward to block her from facing Shen Heting, and said solemnly, "Second Uncle, why are you so aggressive? They are blood relatives, why should the family make such an embarrassing scene?"

"Why bother?" Shen Heting sneered, and was about to say something more, when the old lady slammed her cane heavily, "That's enough, shut up! Brothers are arguing in front of everyone, what's the point? You think I'm dead Bar?"

Shen Heting was still filial after all, as soon as the old lady opened her mouth, he fell silent.

Boyanghou held back his anger, and suddenly regretted letting them come.

But people are coming, and they can't be driven out, so they can only pinch their noses and bear it.

Fortunately, Manfang Garden was right in front of him, Boyang Hou helped the old lady to sit down in the main hall, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"My mother and my second brother have been exhausted on this journey, it's been hard work, please sit down."

Mrs. Liu ordered the servants to serve tea, the old lady sat in the main seat, Marquis Boyang sat next to her, Mrs. Liu and Shen Heting sat down respectively, and Mrs. Liu sat next to Mrs. Liu.

The atmosphere in the main hall was a little dull for a while.

The old lady picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, her face softened a little, and her cloudy eyes were clearer.

She leaned on the back of the chair, looked at Shen Hanyu below, stared for a few times, and asked softly, "When is your wedding date with Princess Rand set?"

Shen Hanyu said respectfully: "Going back to grandma is tentatively scheduled for early January."

"Early January?" The old lady was puzzled: "Didn't your father write me a letter before the end of the year?"

Boyanghou explained: "The end of the year is next to the year, and there are too many things to do, which is inconvenient, so I moved it back."

"It's really cold to get married, you really have it, why not in March or April, at least it's warmer."

Shen Heting's usual yin and yang strangeness.

People are in good spirits every happy event, Boyanghou decided not to be as knowledgeable as an old bachelor, and said gently: "Second brother doesn't know something, there are a lot of happy events in Jindu recently. Second Highness, the Eldest Princess and King Zhou Guoan are also going to get married next year, so there are so many events squeezed into one year, it's not good for us to get in the middle."

"Oh, it's not crowded, it's because I'm afraid of getting in the middle and being laughed at? After all, our Hou Mansion has the lowest status."

Shen Heting clapped his hands and laughed.

Marquis Boyang: "..."

He really wanted to pick up the teacup on the table and stuff it into his mouth!
The old lady looked at Shen Heting helplessly: "Heting, don't talk nonsense."

Shen Heting shrugged and stopped talking.

The old lady asked a few more questions, and Shen Hanyu answered patiently, the food is ready, and everyone had a meal together, during the dinner, Shen Heting stabbed Marquis Boyang from time to time, not even letting Mrs. Depressed and aggrieved.

After dinner, Shen Heting sent the old lady to rest. After lying down, the old lady took his hand and persuaded him: "After all, it's my brother. When mother leaves, you still have to rely on your brother. Why put on face for him?"

Shen Heting smiled, "The son is just jealous. If the son hadn't hurt his hand, he wouldn't have ended up like this."

"But he didn't hurt your hand, so why do you have to worry about it?" The old lady didn't understand, but she felt sorry for him, so she was quite tolerant of him.

Shen Heting's lips trembled for a moment, and finally got up and said: "Mother doesn't like it, I will not do this in the future, you have a good rest, I will go back and change clothes."

Seeing his hurried back, the old lady sighed.

……

When Shen Heting went out, he saw Bo Yanghou standing at the door with his hands behind his back, obviously waiting for him.

His face sank in an instant, and he planned to pretend he didn't see it and bump into Boyanghou directly.

However, Boyanghou turned around first, and said with a smile: "Second brother, let's chat."

……

The two walked up the arch bridge one after the other, and Bo Yanghou stopped on the bridge, looking at the vermilion walls and blue tiles of the imperial city in the distance.

Unwillingness and longing flashed in his eyes, and after a long silence, he asked with a wry smile: "How did you and my brother get to this point?"

Shen Heting wanted to laugh when he heard this question.

"Are you asking me? Who am I asking? I also want to ask, why were there so many people offering incense that day, and I fell down the steps and was run over by a carriage?"

Boyang Hou's heart trembled, and he turned to look at him, "Second brother, I was the one who was sorry for you at that time, if it wasn't for protecting me, you wouldn't..."

"So I hate you, what's the problem? If it wasn't for protecting you, I wouldn't have ended up like this. Even if I couldn't inherit the title, I could at least be an official and climb up step by step. Why worry about the Marquis' mansion not being revitalized? "

Shen Heting was emotional, and his eyes were red when he said this, he took a step closer and looked at Bo Yanghou, and said coldly: "You and I are brothers, why can't we make a difference in the officialdom? But now?"

He flicked his sleeves violently, and said angrily: "Your beautiful wife and concubine are here, your son is here, and you are going to have a second child soon. What about me? What do I have? The marriage that was originally planned has been ruined because I have lost my hands." , From now on, I can only marry a woman from a small family, am I willing? I am not willing!"

"Boyanghou, stop being hypocritical, I don't care."

After Shen Heting said the last sentence, he walked away, leaving Boyanghou in a daze in place.

……

Boyanghou braved the cold wind and went to Liu's yard. Liu was crying aggrievedly, when he heard the footsteps, he hurried up to him, "Master Hou——"

Seeing her pear blossoms with rain, Bo Yanghou hurriedly took her into his arms, "What's wrong?"
