After crossing the mother's handbook

Chapter 109 Shen Yuehua Memorial Day

"Ahem...cough cough..." Accompanied by such a severe cough, Shen Yuelan struggled to get up, her pale face was full of weakness.

"Miss, you're awake, do you want to drink some water or something to eat?" Meng Die hurried up to greet her, asking her warmly.

Shen Yuelan shook her head lightly, "What time is it?" She looked up out of the window and found that it was already dark.

"Miss Hui, it's time to be ugly now." Mengdie said obediently.

Shen Yuelan frowned, "I've been asleep for so long? I remember..." She suddenly thought of something, and asked again, "Mengdie, how did I get back here?"

Speaking of Mengdie, a smile appeared on Mengdie's face, looking very happy.She covered Shen Yuelan with the quilt, and said softly: "This uncle sent you all the way back."

"Brother-in-law? Then where is he now?" Shen Yuelan was extremely excited, and she was about to go down to the ground to find someone while talking.

Mengdie hurried up to help, "Miss, please slow down, my uncle is waiting there." Mengdie pointed to the back of the screen.

A gleam of joy floated on Shen Yuelan's pale face, she ran to the mirror to tidy up, walked around the screen with her shoes on, and saw the person she had always wanted to see in her dreams.

"Brother-in-law, have you been here all this time?" Shen Yuelan's pale face couldn't hide her excitement.

Xia Houzhen's face was always cold, compared to Shen Yuelan's excitement, he seemed much calmer.She raised her head slightly and asked without any emotion, "You woke up, but do you feel unwell?"

"No, it's gone." Shen Yuelan was extremely excited at the moment, and she couldn't think of any pain.She stepped forward step by step, and when she wanted to sit next to Xia Houtian——

But he suddenly stood up and said, "If you feel good, then I'll go back first." After saying that, he wanted to leave.

When Shen Yuelan heard this, she wanted to slap herself to death.Seeing that her beloved was about to leave, she walked around in circles.Suddenly remembering it, Shen Yuelan yelled "Ouch!" and successfully made Xia Houzhen stop.

"What's wrong?" There was a trace of impatience in Xia Houtian's cold voice.

Shen Yuelan's pale face was full of frailty, and she said weakly, "Headache." She secretly gave Mengdie a wink.

Mengdie understood, and hurried forward to ask, "Miss, is it still hurting?"

Shen Yuelan nodded heavily, "I don't know what's wrong, I didn't feel this way just now."

"It must be the eldest son-in-law. The eldest son-in-law is a wealthy person. He can suppress this evil spirit." After Mengdie finished speaking to herself, she hurriedly ran to Xia Houtian and knelt down, and said earnestly, "Please, elder brother-in-law." Okay, stay with my young lady for a while longer. Now that the young lady has left, my young lady has lost the company of her elder sister, so she stays here alone."

Shen Yuelan pretended to scold angrily, "You girl, don't talk nonsense, come back quickly. Brother-in-law is now setting up another family business, and his wife is waiting in the room, how can he stay here."

"But miss, it was the new lady who pushed you down, why are you so beautiful and still defending her!" Mengdie was full of anger.

Seeing that Mengdie didn't listen to her, Shen Yuelan was trembling with anger. She stepped forward quickly and scolded, "You girl has even learned to talk back." It looks like it's hard to start.

"Enough!" Xiahou Ting reprimanded softly, he was originally watching all this quietly, but at this moment he couldn't bear to watch.

Xia Houzhen's voice startled the master and servant, they looked at each other in blank dismay, at a loss.

Xia Houzhen looked at Mengdie coldly, and said, "Help your young lady to rest, I will stay here tonight."

Shen Yuelan looked embarrassed, "Will it be wrong?" She said, looking at the Ziluan Pavilion with a very clear intention.

"It was her fault for pushing you off the wooden bridge. Now I can repay it for her." After Xia Houzhen said coldly, she sat on the main seat again, staring out the window with deep eyes, feeling very tormented in her heart.

Mengdie fetched a cotton padded coat and put it on Shen Yuelan, and helped her to take a seat next to her.

"I slept too long today, I want to sit here for a while." Shen Yuelan said weakly, as if seeking Xia Houzhen's consent.Seeing that the other party didn't respond, Shen Yuelan was relieved.

"Mengdie, go serve tea." Shen Yuelan ordered softly.

Xia Houzhen glanced at this side coldly, and said, "You are sick now, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to drink tea, let's replace it with water."

When Shen Yuelan heard this, her heart immediately felt warm.She lowered her eyebrows and smiled, "I didn't expect my brother-in-law to remain the same after all these years."

Xia Houzhen pursed her lips tightly, frowned slightly, and remained silent.

Mengdie brought tea at this time, and after serving them one by one in order, she retreated respectfully behind Shen Yuelan.

Shen Yuelan took a sip of water, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, "I remember when I was young, my brother-in-law looked at us and my sisters like this. But at that time, Yuelan didn't think that you would become my brother-in-law."

It was also at that time that she hid the person in her heart, Shen Yuelan thought to herself.

Xia Houzhen took a sip of tea, but still didn't speak.

Shen Yuelan only felt extremely embarrassed, she said again, "Brother-in-law, do you still remember why you stayed in the Duke's Mansion that time?"

This time Xia Houzhen finally spoke, but it was only a few words, "I don't know." When this past, remember what Taiqing was doing.Even if it is really necessary, it should not be remembered with her.

Shen Yuelan's face froze, and she continued, "It doesn't matter if my brother-in-law forgets, but Yue Lan will never forget it in this life. At that time, the old Lord Xiahou was eager to take up his post, and the old lady happened to be returning to her mother's house to visit relatives. In desperation, you were killed by the old Lord Hou. Send it to the government.

I still remember that it was raining heavily that day, and the sky was full of thunder. Eldest sister and I were afraid, so we hid secretly in your room.At that time, you and I were still young, but my brother-in-law knew how to be a gentleman, so he gave up the bed to me and my eldest sister. Every time there was a thunderstorm, Yue Lan would think of it.but……"

When she said this, there was a blush on her pale face, she covered her face with a handkerchief, and continued with a smile, "I remember you were sitting on such a stool at that time, watching us two sisters quietly." The more Shen Yuelan talked, the farther she went, her eyes were full of yearning for the beautiful things in the past.

"It's getting late at night, you should go to bed early." Xia Houtian said calmly.After the words fell, he propped one hand on the table, and slowly closed his deep eyes.

Shen Yuelan: "..."

Even though she was extremely angry in her heart, she still had no way to deal with Xia Houzhen like this.

A trace of sadness crossed Shen Yuelan's pale face, and she said to herself, "What am I in your heart?"

Mengdie looked distressed, "It's getting late at night, you should go to bed too, you've been tired all day."

"Go get a small blanket." Shen Yuelan looked at Xia Houzhen affectionately, and softly instructed Mengdie, as if she was afraid of waking up a sleeping person.

Mengdie bent down and turned around to get it.

Shen Yuelan moved her footsteps lightly, leaned close to Xia Houzhen's side and watched quietly.Such a scene was something she could only dream of.Now that she has realized it, it is so beautiful that it is unreal, making him really want to stop at this moment.

Shen Yuelan took the blanket from Mengdie's hand, covered him with extremely gentle movements, and stared at him affectionately for a while before leaving reluctantly.

The candles were blown out, and Lan Yueju fell into darkness and silence again.Xiahou Ting moved her body and opened those bottomless eyes.His hearing was particularly sensitive in the dark, so he lifted the blanket off his body and left Lanyue Residence step by step.

Outside the room door, facing the cold wind, Xia Houzhen stood upright on the wooden bridge, her deep eyes lingered in the place where Shen Yuelan fell into the water during the day, thinking deeply.

The daylight in winter was relatively late, and when Xia Houzhen and the others set off, the sky was still foggy.Because they are going to worship their ancestors, the expressions on their faces are more solemn.

Fu Yunzhi came late, and when she appeared at the gate of the mansion, there were already many people.

"Mother!" Xiahou Huaijin said happily, she was standing on the ground jumping up and down.But soon, he was startled by Xia Houtian's cold eyes.

The corner of Shen Yuelan's mouth curled up into a smile, and she said in a strange way, "Ma'am, you are here, we are standing in this cold wind, it is really cool!"

Fu Yunzhi lowered her eyes, hiding the real emotion on her face, she knew that this woman wouldn't hold back any good farts.

"Since it's too cold in the wind, why doesn't Ms. Shen go up and wait?" Fu Yunzhi glanced at the carriage coolly, and said indifferently.

When Shen Yuelan opened her mouth and was about to say something, she was blocked by a tall figure. Xia Houzhen was standing between the two of them, and her displeased voice came to their ears, "It's not that it's too cool in the cold wind. Well, since everyone has arrived, why don't you get in the car?"

Fu Yunzhi lowered his head and didn't answer.

Shen Yuelan looked around, wondering, "Have all the carriages stopped here? Why do I feel like one is missing?"

"You two, one of you will be with the two children, and the other will be with me. As for the maidservant, I will take another car. Now that the court is not stable, it is safer to sit together." Xia Houzhen finished coldly , then stared at Fu Yunzhi with cold eyes.

It's not that Fu Yunzhi didn't notice the burning gaze, but she didn't speak.She heard the implication of what Xia Houtian said just now, so let's wait and see.

In contrast, Shen Yuelan seemed much more elated, she put all her thoughts on Xia Houtian, and even hoped that he would open his mouth to take the initiative to be with her.

Xiahou Huaijin looked at Fu Yunzhi expectantly, the thoughts on his face were obvious.But when her big flickering eyes glanced at Xia Houtian, the expression on her face suddenly became a little tangled.If her mother was with her, wouldn't that give her so-called aunt an advantage?

Thinking about it this time, she felt wrong again.With Xiahou Huaijin's tangled expression on his face, Huaiyu suddenly said loudly, "Father, I went this time to worship my biological mother, so I want to be with my aunt."

Xiahou Ting pretended to think carefully, and said, "If that's the case, then my sister-in-law will be wronged to be with the two children."

A trace of displeasure flashed across Shen Yuelan's face, but she tried her best to conceal it very well, and others didn't notice anything.

Xiahou Huaiyu sighed heavily where no one could see, he did the right thing.

Just when Xia Houzhen was about to ask them to get in the car, a rush of voices came from far to near, interrupting his words——

"Wait a moment……"
