CH 11

Wei Cheng Lin shook his head: “No. It’s just that I found out about this by chance and thought that something was wrong. So I came to find my mother.”

Shen Xin Yan nodded slightly but did not ask him what was wrong.

Wei Cheng Lin hesitated for a moment but he finally couldn’t hold back his groaning: “Mother, I think you should inform my father about this matter in advance. After all, those are the people who serve my father. If you have a quarrel with father because of this, wouldn’t the gain outweigh the loss?”

Perhaps feeling that as a son, it is inappropriate to talk too much about parents’ affairs, the boy’s voice became softer and lighter, and his head gradually lowered.

Shen Xin Yan was astonished. She never dreamed that he would say such a thing to her, and she didn’t expect him to be so concerned about her affairs. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little sour in her nose. She quickly covered it up by taking a sip of tea.

After not getting a response from his mother for a long time, Wei Cheng Lin became more and more uneasy. He couldn’t help regretting his recklessness.

“I’m sorry. It’s me being meddlesome and the mother doesn’t have to…”

“No, mother is very happy that my son has put his mother in his heart and you are worried that mother will anger your father because of this. Mother is very pleased with my son’s filial piety.” Shen Xin Yan interrupted him-.

The boy who always liked to have a small face couldn’t help but blushed slightly, gave her a quick look with some embarrassment, and continued to lower his head and whispered: “You are the mother of the child, and the child will naturally take you to heart. .”

Shen Xin Yan did not miss his words, the smile on her face condensed slightly, and then she added a bit of bitterness.

Is it? Because she is his mother, she will be in his heart. If that’s the case, what happened to her in her last life?

She knew that she was on the cusp of bullshit again, but she couldn’t restrain the crazy thoughts growing in her heart. It was like two little people were arguing loudly in her mind.

“It’s a liar. He’s a liar. It’s nice to say at this time. But when Zhou Wanning appears, you’ll be nothing!”

“Nonsense. Brother Lin never bothers to lie. Since he said that, he thought this way in his heart!”

“You’re crazy. Isn’t the lesson from your previous life deep enough? Do you still want to do it again in this life?” “

“The previous life is the previous life. This life is this life. No matter what, he is your son, you have to do your mother’s responsibility well. How can you completely neglect him who is still young because of what may happen in the future?”

“Women’s benevolence. You are women’s benevolence!”

“I am a woman, so what if there is a woman’s benevolence? “

…

Shen Xin Yan calmed down and locked up all the little people who were arguing deep in the mind. He raised his hand to caress his son’s head lightly, but the action paused when he was about to touch his hair, and there was a little struggle in his eyes, and finally, the soft palm still rested on the boy’s head.

“You…you can think like this. Mother is very happy.”

Although it is unclear what happened to make this son in this life a little different from him in his previous life, she is quite happy to see these differences. No one would want their blood and flesh to be separated from them. She was the same.

Her tone paused for a while. Somehow she thought of something from the previous life. She lowered her eyes for a moment, looked into the dark eyes of the young man, and said to him word by word with incomparable tenderness.

“It’s just, Brother Lin, you have to remember that you are a dignified man. In the future, you will do a career to support our family, the Ying Guo Gong Mansion. Your world should be outside. And the inner house is the battlefield of women. As the saying goes, ‘ As a man, you shouldn’t put your mind and energy into the inner house’, let alone intervene in the disputes between women, do you understand?”

Wei Cheng Lin blinked his dark eyes and nodded: “The son understands!”

Shen Xin Yan smiled slightly, stroked his soft hair, and said softly: “Since ancient times, women have been the gentlest and firmest backing for men, like your grandmother. It is precisely because your grandmother is a smart and capable mistress in the mansion, your grandfather can make achievements outside with peace of mind. In the future, when brother Lin chooses his daughter-in-law, the appearance is second, but the words ‘smart and capable’ are absolutely indispensable!”

And Zhou Wanning and the words “smart and capable ” are absolutely irrelevant! It can’t even pull the slightest relationship!

She admitted that she did have other thoughts when she said this. But so what? No one can say that what she said is wrong!

The little boy was even more embarrassed, his mouth pursed slightly, and his tone actually had a hint of coquettishness: “Mother…” Shen Xin Yan laughed lightly. Wei Cheng Lin’s face flushed red. He even forgot to do the ceremony, turned around and slipped out.

Seeing that her son rarely showed his age-matched side, Shen Xin Yan couldn’t help laughing again. In the laughter, a gust of wind seemed to blow away the mist that had been shrouded in her heart.

Yes, her son is only ten years old this year. There are still seven years before he meets Zhou Wan Ning. Although her son was always assertive and determined, so what? She was his mother. As a mother, she had an obligation to teach her son. Who can be sure that during these seven years he will not take her teachings to heart?

I don’t dare to expect him to hear it all into his heart. Just one or two is enough!

“Ma’am, that old woman really went to look for Lian Xiang.” Qiutang frowned slightly as she lifted the curtain and said.

Shen Xin Yan nodded, her eyes drooping slightly: “Understood. It’s noticeable to trace her. So don’t care about her.”

Qiutang’s brows became worried: “This servant doesn’t understand. Madam must also know that the old woman will go to find Lian Xiang. Why? Why do you have to let it go? If the master…”

“I understand. Don’t worry. Just do what I say. Everything has me!” Shen Xin Yan didn’t know what she was worried about, but she didn’t say anything. only vaguely commanded.

Qiutang wanted to persuade her again. But Shen Xin Yan had already turned her face away, showing that she did not want to listen anymore.

She could only sigh and retreat helplessly.

After the sound of the door curtain being lowered, Shen Xin Yan absent-mindedly grabbed the handkerchief. Although she was prepared, she couldn’t hide her anxiety.

What if that person disappoints her? She felt remorse for a while.

Maybe she shouldn’t be tempted like this. If the husband and wife are estranged because of this, it will outweigh the gain.

In her last life, she didn’t interfere much with Wei Jun Hang’s affairs. She also let go of the people who served him. But she intends to get along well with him in this life, so she naturally needs to pay more attention.

It’s just that she doesn’t know much about Wei Jun Hang, so she plans to explore the bottom line of the other party. Then she will be able to act appropriately in the future.

Therefore, this time, with her tacit approval, Mama Wang attacked several of Wei Jun Hang’s unruly servants in one breath, including Lian Xiang’s younger brother.

The mother of Lian Xiang, Mama Zhang, was deeply in love with her only son. If something happened to her son, she would naturally ask her daughter to intercede with Shizi Ye.

If Wei Jun Hang finally gave Lian Xiang this honour, then she would have to find the most suitable distance between him and her.

“…Mother, Zhuzi was caught by someone. It is a helpless thing to be exempted from the errand. Besides, Mama Wang is someone close to Madam. Zhuzi’s dismissal was approved by Madam. You told me to think of a way, what else can I think of?” Lian Xiang said helplessly with a bitter face.

Madam Zhang was so annoyed that she pinched her daughter on the arm: “Damn girl, you can’t even do this, what’s the use of you! That Mama Wang is the person from Madam’s side. You are still the person of Shizi Ye! You! You can beg him to spare your brother this time.”

The expression on Lian Xiang’s face became even more bitter: “Mother, what nonsense are you talking about! Lord and Madam are husband and wife. Madam gave an order. How could Shizi Ye contradict Madam for a servant? Isn’t it detrimental to the relationship between husband and wife?!”

“Shizi Ye and his wife naturally have a relationship between husband and wife. But you have been by Shizi Ye’s side for so long, don’t you have any relationship? Besides, Zhuzi is just being playful for a while. Coupled with his young age and soft ears, he was forced to gamble just once or twice by those who had no good intentions. Who would have thought that Mama Wang would just happen to take someone to the courtyard at that time!” Lian Xiang said in a low voice. She didn’t know what to think, as if she hadn’t heard her words. Mama Zhang was so annoyed that she slapped her on the back shoulder again: “I’m talking to you! Did you hear me?”

Lian Xiang was caught by her. She stumbled a few steps before she steadied. Staring at her both angrily and aggrievedly: “Zhu Zi is already in his twenties. How can you say he is young? Ordinary men like him have already married and established a business.”

“Now that your wings are hard, you dare to talk back to me?!”

“Beat me. If you beat me again, don’t expect me to plead to Shizi Ye!”  Instead of retreating, Lian Xiang puffed her chest out and pushed her neck up.

Mama Zhang was furious at first, then overjoyed. She patted the folds on her clothes with a smile: “No beating. No beating. Then the matter of the pillars is entirely up to you.”

Lian Xiang said: “I will try my best. It’s not up to me to decide whether to succeed or not.”

“What are you saying? You’ve been serving Shizi Ye for so long. Is it possible that he doesn’t even give you this honour?” Mama Zhang was not worried at all. But when she saw her daughter’s face sinking, she quickly changed her words and said, “Okay. As long as you try your best, whether it succeeds or not is the master’s business. It has nothing to do with you!”

That night, when Wei Jun Hang came back from the outside, he first came to the main house to have dinner with his wife and children before returning to his Jinxiu Residence.

Jinxiu Residence is not the main courtyard of Funing Courtyard. So it does not occupy the largest area. However, its scenery is not much worse than that of Ning’an Courtyard, where the eldest princess lives. There are three small rooms. The east room is the bedroom, and the west room is Wei Jun Hang’s study.

After taking a bath, Wei Jun Hang held the treasure box as usual and counted the contents several times, and then let out a long sigh. For the first time, he felt that his income was so thin that he wanted to give his wife and daughter something. He was powerless to buy good things.

“Shizi Ye!” He reluctantly put away the treasure box. As soon as he turned around, he saw Lian Xiang come in at some point and knelt straight in front of him.
