Chapter 48：

Xia Rong found out a few days ago that Xianggong still wears the pouch he embroidered for him back then. The pouch has been worn out, and the corners are starting to turn white. You don't need to think about it, because it was embroidered by yourself, so my husband cherishes it so much, even if it is old, he is not willing to change it.

But ever since he was pregnant, Xianggong has been worried about him, almost wishing he could watch him all day long. He was not allowed to do this, and he was not allowed to do that. Once he just wanted to change the place for a vase. After he was discovered by his husband, the people who served him were also trained for a long time.

Not only that, even the business matters were all delayed because of his pregnancy, or they waited for him to fall asleep before dealing with it, or dragged him so that he had to be in front of his eyes to handle the accounts with peace of mind . Xia Rong was also quite helpless about this, but he could see that the husband was really worried about him, so he didn't say anything, and he was very cooperative, so he never found a chance to embroider a new purse.

Today, it was hard to go to the shop while the husband was busy, Xia Rong hurriedly asked He Miao to bring his needle and thread, and he wanted to embroider a new purse for the husband. Who knew that he had only finished the drawing here, picked up the scissors and was about to cut it out, when the husband rushed in at the door and confiscated the things.

Shen Xiangyan was furious, this careless little bastard, he dared to touch these things with his back foot as soon as he went out with his front foot. He has already explained that Zhengjun is pregnant, so don't let him touch such sharp things, "Everyone in the room is blind, how can they serve Zhengjun, he can touch these troublesome things with his body now Is it?" He Miao and a few little maids who were serving in the room saw the master getting angry, and they all knelt down and did not dare to vent their anger.

Although Shen Xiangyan got angry, he turned his head and spoke to Xia Rong in a gentle tone, "Let's not do these chores for Rong'er, if there is something that must be done, it's okay to tell them to do it." After finishing speaking, he was still not at ease. He picked up Xia Rong's hand and looked at it for a long time, only to be relieved when he saw that he hadn't been stabbed.

He Miao was wronged to kneel on the ground. Whatever Zhengjun wants to do, these slaves can only obey orders. He also persuaded, but Zhengjun didn't listen to him. Moreover, he packed up all the things like needles and threads, afraid that Zhengjun would think of them when he saw them. Who knows why Zhengjun suddenly thought of doing needlework after the young master left today, obviously Zhengjun didn't like needlework very much before.

Although Xia Rong felt that Xianggong had made a big deal out of trivial matters, he was only pregnant, and it's not like he can't take care of himself anymore, so it's really nothing to do with sewing. But after getting along for so long, he knew that Shen Xiangyan actually only looked gentle and polite, but he was very domineering in his heart. If he begged for Miao and the others directly, Xianggong would not say anything in person, but he would definitely punish them behind the scenes, so he pretended not to see the kneeling people in the room and said coquettishly, "Rong'er just wants to embroider a purse for Xianggong." , the one on you, Mr. Xiang, is old, and you lose your temper when you come back, and you don’t even know how to praise Rong’er.”

Shen Xiangyan's tense face eased a lot after hearing this, and he looked at Xia Rong with tenderness in his eyes, "Praise you, praise you, Rong'er is so good. But the one on Xianggong's body is very good, so there is no need to embroider any more." gone."

Seeing that my husband was not so angry anymore, Xia Rong hurriedly climbed up the pole, "Didn't my husband promise to give Rong'er a grilled fish tonight? I'll ask He Miao to go to the kitchen and order it to be prepared in advance."

Shen Xiangyan stretched out his hand and pinched Xia Rong's little face, not knowing that he was pleading in disguise, and said helplessly, "You, I really can't do anything about you." After speaking, he waved his hands following Xia Rong's meaning, "That's all , get up, hurry up and thank Zheng Jun for pleading for you."

He Miao hurriedly led a few young maidservants to kowtow to the two of them, gratefully said, "My maidservant, thank Zhengjun for pleading, and thank young master for not punishing me."

After Xia Rong let them all go down, she said to Shen Xiangyan with a flattering smile, "Sir, don't blame them, what I want to do, they can't do anything about me right now." After finishing speaking, she stretched out her hands to signal Shen Xiangyan Hugging him, Shen Xiangyan couldn't resist, he hugged him up, "You, you are getting skinnier, it makes people feel uneasy if you go out for a while." He firmly believed in his heart that Xia Rong should not be out of his sight.

At night, Xia Rong fulfilled her wish and ate the fish grilled by her husband himself. Shen Xiangyan had someone set up a fire in the backyard, and the fish was picked fresh by the kitchen and marinated in advance. Shen Xiangyan's cooking was well controlled, the bones of the fish were crispy, and the surface was not scorched. Xia Rong ate two whole strips, and her belly was bulging. In the end, it was Shen Xiangyan who led the people for a walk around the yard several times, which made it better.

Two days later, in the study, Chen Cai finished his ceremony and reported, "Young master, our people discovered that the servant next to Ye Zhen had had two private contacts with Liu Laosan from Zhendong. That Liu Laosan is a gambler. I owe a lot of money to the casino, but yesterday the people below went to the casino to inquire, and I don’t know who paid back all the money owed to Liu Laosan.”

Shen Xiangyan flipped through the book in his hand without looking up, and asked, "Lao San Liu? Who else is there in his family?"

"There are only half-old twins left in his family. It is very unfortunate to meet this kind of father. Liu Laosan only knows how to block, and doesn't care whether he lives or dies. On weekdays, he is supported by the neighbors around him." Chen Cai is really pretty. I don't like people like Liu Laosan. The children in my family are starving to death, and they only know how to gamble all day long.

Shen Xiangyan wrote a few words on the paper calmly and said, "Let people continue to follow, be careful not to startle the snake. And tell Shen An about it, he knows what to do." After finishing speaking, he continued to flip through his hands quickly Seeing that Chen Cai still didn't go down, he raised his head and asked, "Why, is there anything else?"

Chen Cai hesitated whether to report this matter. I said that it is very likely that I will bear the young master's remaining anger, but I can't do it if I don't say it. The young master has ordered before that no matter how big or small the matter is, you have to report to him, "Young master, the person sent to Chunfeng Tower is from the person who served Miss Ruyue." If you hear some news, don't get angry." After speaking, he raised his head carefully and glanced at Shen Xiangyan.

Shen Xiangyan laughed angrily at his appearance, threw the book in his hand on Chen Cai, and said angrily, "Okay, tell me what's up."

Chen Cai didn't care if he got smashed, and said calmly, "The person who was sent happened to be from the same town as Xiaodie, who served Miss Ruyue. She redeemed herself. But Miss Ruyue already knew what kind of person Ye Zhen was, so she didn't like him at all. Later, Ye Zhen annoyed Miss Ruyue, and Miss Ruyue said that if Ye Zhen could set up the backyard like Xiang Zilai's Boss Shen, Everyone disbanded, and as long as she was alone in the future, she nodded and agreed to enter the gate of Ye's house. Listening to Xiaodie, when Ye Zhen heard this, her expression was so dark that I couldn't see it." Chen Cai said this in one breath. He came out and ran away after speaking, as if he was afraid that the young master would really take out his anger on him.

Shen Xiangyan was also taken aback when he heard this, he was a little bit puzzled before why Ye Zhen had followed him, it turned out that it was because of this, it was really a disaster for no reason. Shen Xiangyan got up and took another book from the bookshelf, went back to his seat and looked through it, alas, it's a problem that this person is too good, he's enviable. He should continue to think about the name of the little guy in Xia Rong's stomach while Fu Lang was taking a nap.

Shen Xiangyan looked at the paper on the table, several names had already been drawn on it. But he was not satisfied with any of them. Fortunately, there were still some days before the child was born, so he didn't have to worry too much, but Chen Cai was really a kid, and he could still eat people.

—————

Leaving aside the Shen family, since Xia Tian married into the Zhang family, she hasn't had a comfortable day. Zhang Ningyu's inhuman thing, except for spending the night in her room when they got married, has never entered her room. Either resting with this aunt, or resting with that little waiter, none of these **** is simple.

Especially that Mu Rou, in front of Zhang Ningyu, she is as pitiful as a little white flower, but in front of her, she has another face, but she is just a favored concubine, and I don't know who gave her the courage.

Speaking of this, Mu Rou was the one Shen Xiangyan and Xia Rong had met on the street to sell her body to bury her father. Since she entered Zhang's house, she had won Zhang Ningyu's favor with her face, and she often gave Xia Xia some comfort. Fortunately, Mrs. Xia was worried about her later, so she sent Aunt Yu, who was beside her, to Xia Tian. Although Xia Tian had suffered some grievances in the Zhang family, she never fell into a big tumble.

Living in Zhang's house in summer was uncomfortable, so she often went back to her mother's house for a short stay on the pretext of taking care of Mrs. Xia's illness. For some reason, Mrs. Xia has not been in good health since she suffered a serious illness before. Even the last orchid feast was not attended due to physical reasons.

Master Xia is now fully focused on his little concubine Aunt Su, who is pregnant with a child. He has always hoped that there will be a boy in that belly, so that he can continue the incense of his old Xia family. Even for Mrs. Xia's serious illness, Master Xia only visited her a few times at the beginning, and then told her to take good care of her illness, and never came to Mrs. Xia's yard again.

Xia Tian managed to catch Aunt Su's fault today, the new clothes made for her were not at all the high-quality silk and satin she always used, and now she is looking for trouble for Aunt Su. Mrs. Xia is now ill and unable to take care of the family. Aunt Su is taking care of all the big and small things in the summer house. Xia Tian has been dissatisfied for a long time.

"Don't think that if you have a seed in your belly, you can be more expensive than a mother. It doesn't mean that you are a boy. Besides, I am still the eldest lady of the Xia family. You don't even look at your identity, and you dare to skimp on it." My cost."

Aunt Su cursed in her heart, she is already married and still runs to her mother's house all day, what kind of young lady is this, but she explained with a smile, "Oh, you don't know, young lady, since you got married, The business of the silk and satin shop at home is not as good as it was before, and I am also thinking about the family. Even for me, the expenses of the family have been reduced appropriately, and I hope that the eldest lady can understand that it is not easy for me to be a housekeeper while pregnant."
