Chapter 71: The Shadow Becomes Three
It's not that he wants to pour cold water on Yang Qinyu.
Yang Qinyu has been a pampered daughter in a big family since he was a child, and he has not suffered any setbacks, after getting married, even if there is an illegitimate child entering the door, there is no other woman to share the favor, even if it is the old lady of the Zhou family, she is also a kindergarten teacher in Zhou Hanyue, and after the death of the old lady Zhou, she moved to another courtyard to live. She is the housewife of this mansion.
Since having Zhou Hanyue and Zhou Qingqing, she has become even more carefree Mrs. Kuo.
Compared with others, she has never won.
Yang Qinyu went and grabbed Zhou Hanyue's arm, "Son, I know that you are thinking about your mother, you want to keep your mother from being angry, but if your mother leaves the door of Zhou's house now, she will become a laughing stock in other people's mouths!"
"What is important to you?"
"It's important!" Yang Qinyu said, "I am the eldest lady of the Yang family, I must not become the laughing stock of others! I have to set an example!"
Zhou Hanyue looked at Yang Qinyu, "Okay, Mom, if this is your choice, I respect you." ā
Yang Qinyu pursed her lips, there was sadness and disappointment in her eyes, "Son, this is my home, this is my husband, I can't just leave." ā
He stood in the shadow of a big tree, just like that, and looked at Yang Qinyu and turned around and walked back to the main building.
Tian Peipei was secretly happy, and when she saw Yang Qinyu turn back again, she suddenly felt a little incredible.
"Why did my sister come back?"
Yang Qinyu looked at her coldly: "You want me to go out, right? I just won't let you get your wish! This is my home, this is my husband, I won't leave!"
Tian Peipei said: "Sister, what you said, of course this is your home, it is your husband, and I don't mean to rob it, but the master sees me pitiful and takes me in as a poor woman." ā
Yang Qinyu only felt a little pain in his chest.
When she saw the woman's pretentious appearance, she wanted to go up and tear her face every minute.
Aunt Luo helped Yang Qinyu, "Madam, let's go back to the room first, it's time for supper." ā
Yang Qinyu shook his hand and went upstairs.
At this time, only Zhou Hanfeng and Tian Peipei were left in the living room.
The housekeeper sent someone over to arrange a room for Tian Peipei and asked someone to carry all the luggage.
Tian Peipei looked at the luxurious decoration in this villa, and was inevitably amazed in her heart, "It can be regarded as letting me live in." ā
Since giving birth to Zhou Hanfeng, she has been hoping to live in it one day, who would have thought that not only did she fail to enter the door of the Zhou family, but even if it was her own son, it took a lot of effort, and it took a lot of work to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors two years ago to become the real four young Zhou family.
Zhou Hanfeng turned sideways to the side, dodging Tian Peipei's hand that looked at the wounded hand on his face, with extreme impatience on his face.
"Alright. ā
Tian Peipei smiled, "Good son, listen to your mother this time, and you won't have to fight alone in the future." ā
Zhou Hanfeng was dissatisfied in his eyes.
He didn't want to play this scene with Tian Peipei.
But when he was at Xu Simu's place today, this incident happened suddenly, and he took the opportunity to give Tian Peipei a chance, and she also saved her from coming over and pestering all day long.
Zhou Hanfeng stood up, "Since you came in, settle down, don't let Dad dislike you." ā
Tian Peipei laughed, picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip of water.
"Disgusted with me?" she put one hand on her cheek, "as long as I have this face, he can't be disgusted with me." ā
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Xu Simu waited in the villa until twelve o'clock, but he still didn't wait for Zhou Hanyue to come back.
She was uneasy.
Could it be that something is going on inside the main building?
She couldn't sleep, so she simply put on her coat and came out.
It was almost twelve o'clock, and there were dark shadows outside, although there were street lamps at the time, but it looked more like ghosts.
Xu Simu didn't dare to go out alone, so he went to the dog house to take Luda out and let him go out with him.
Luda also yawned, and when he was first scooped up, he was embarrassed.
After going out with Xu Simu, it was much better, and he regained his refreshed appearance.
At this time, in the dead of night, there were almost no voices in this house, and everything was silent.
Xu Simu went to the main building to take a look first.
The lights are out.
So she went somewhere else.
Unconsciously, she vaguely felt that Zhou Hanyue was by the lake.
When I went there, I saw in the distance a boat in the middle of the lake, dressed in a figure.
There were no lights on the lake tonight, only moonlight pouring overhead.
Xu Simu thought of a sentence.
The shadow becomes a trio.
She remembers that when she was a child, when she first learned this poem, she only thought it was good, and it was a very beautiful scene.
But now when I really see such a scene, I only feel deeply lonely.
She patted Ruda on the head.
Ruda glanced up at her.
Xu Simu gave it a look.
Luda yelled twice at the man in the middle of the lake.
The center of the lake was on the boat, and it seemed that he was already an old monk who had settled down, so he moved slowly, turned his head in the direction of Xu Simu, paused for a moment, and then shook the oars and came back to the lake.
When Zhou Hanyue was alone on the boat, when he saw Xu Simu on the shore, the whole person instantly relaxed.
It's like when you return home, you see someone waiting for the light, and the sense of belonging that is wandering is finally revealed.
"Why don't you sleep so late?"
Zhou Hanyue got off the boat.
Xu Simu said: "How can I sleep if you don't go back?"
Zhou Hanyue walked over and naturally grabbed her waist, "Miss me?"
"Who misses you!" Xu Simu stuck out his tongue.
She didn't have a mask on her face.
In the dead of night, no one will pay attention to her appearance.
Xu Simu turned his head to look at Zhou Hanyue's face, and felt that his side face was a little swollen.
Xu Simu reached out to touch his face, "Does it hurt?"
"Nothing. ā
Zhou Hanyue didn't say, and Xu Simu didn't ask.
After two years in Zhou Hanyue's psychological counseling room, she also learned a little bit about how to look at people's psychology.
A man like Zhou Hanyue must not want his vulnerable side to be seen.
Early the next morning, when Zhou Hanyue went to work, Xu Simu found Sister-in-law Zhang.
"Sister-in-law Zhang, you go to the main building today to inquire if anything happened to Sanshao over there yesterday, and then come back to tell me everything. ā
Sister-in-law Zhang went out after receiving the order, but she was still a little apprehensive in her heart.
Last night, Xu Simu asked her to watch TV together, and asked some strange questions, which made her still feel palpitations, but now she was sent to the main building to inquire about the news.
In that case, it seems that Mrs. is not suspicious of her.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been asked to go to the main building to find out the news.
Xu Simu stroked Luda's hair and looked in the direction of the main building, feeling calm in his heart.
Two hours later, Sister-in-law Zhang came back with a panicked face.
"Oh no, ma'am, something really happened last night!"
Xu Simu raised his eyebrows and pointed to the cold kettle resting in front of him, "Take two sips of water first and speak slowly." ā
Sister-in-law Zhang told Xu Simu everything she heard from the main building.
"Last night, because of the beating of the gentleman, he was called by the master, who knows, the four young injuries were serious, so he took the outside one back, saying that he wanted to take it back to live at home, but the gentleman had a quarrel with the master, and finally the gentleman said that he wanted to settle down with the eldest lady, and he took the eldest lady away, but the eldest lady refused and went back. ā
Sister-in-law Zhang thought about it for a while, and it seemed that just such a little thing was indeed explained in detail.
Xu Simu frowned.
She thought that this matter was at most because Zhou Jianghe loved his son, of course, he doted on Zhou Hanfeng's youngest son, and then she had a violent dispute with Zhou Hanyue, but she didn't expect that there was another layer of relationship at a deeper level.
She took two sips of water and looked at Sister-in-law Zhang, "Who did you ask about this?"
"It's the maid in the main building. ā
Xu Simu raised his eyebrows, "When this kind of family dispute happened, they didn't avoid the maids below?
Sister-in-law Zhang was stunned when asked.
"IāI don't know, that's what they said, I've already conveyed it. ā
"Okay," Xu Simu smiled and took out a red envelope from his pocket, "Thank you for your hard work, this is a tip for your errand this time." ā
"No need ma'am, the salary given by the gentleman is high enough. ā
"Really?" Xu Simu asked rhetorically, "Is it high enough?" ā
Sister-in-law Zhang said: "It's really high enough, don't let your wife break the bill with me again." ā
Xu Simu stood up with a smile, "There's no need to say it, what he gave is his, what I give is what I give, give it to you, you just keep it." ā
Sister-in-law Zhang took the red envelope, went back to her room in fear, opened the red envelope and took a look, and inside the red envelope was a pink banknote.
There is only one.
She didn't understand what it meant, so she put the red envelope away first.
After a while, her phone rang.
She glanced at the number on her phone's screen, and then at the fact that there was no one outside the door before she answered the phone.
"That's what my wife did ask just now. ā
"How did she ask?" asked the other person on the other end of the phone.
Sister-in-law Zhang told the content of Xu Simu's question just now.
"Okay, I see, you go ahead, you don't need to do anything further without my call. ā
After saying that, the other party hung up the phone.
Sister-in-law Zhang hid her phone in fear and went to cook in the kitchen outside.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Xu Simu was alone in the room and thought a lot.
Originally, she still wondered why Zhou Hanyue went to the center of the lake alone last night.
What Zhou Jianghe did was too chilling.
I'm afraid that this time, it really chilled Zhou Hanyue's heart.
Xu Simu felt that this time, she had to do something about Yang Qinyu.
Actually, Zhou Hanfeng's mother Tian Peipei, Xu Simu has seen it.
It turned out to be a quyi actor in a small town, singing Hua Dan, and later followed Zhou Jianghe, and he was brought from a small town to the metropolis of City C.
In fact, looking at Zhou Hanfeng, you can see how beautiful Tian Peipei is.
Zhou Hanfeng is more handsome and feminine than tough, and most of them inherit Tian Peipei's appearance.
It's just that the meeting with Tian Peipei was not very pleasant.
Her life experience cannot satisfy Tian Peipei, that is, she cannot be a help to her son.
Xu Simu thought about it and felt the need to meet Yang Qinyu.
But now she has bags all over her face and can't go out to meet people.
She originally wanted to find an intermediary - Zhou Qingqing to pass the word on her behalf, but thinking about Zhou Qingqing's out-of-the-box temperament, she still gave up to avoid that things didn't work out, but caused trouble, which was not good.
She thought about it, Tian Peipei had just entered the door, and she wouldn't make any moves in a short period of time, so she would be okay for the time being, and she would wait until after the wedding to talk about other things.
Maybe it's because of this incident, Zhou Hanyue doesn't go to the main building anymore these days, neither Zhou Jianghe nor Yang Qinyu has come to look for it, Zhou Hanyue doesn't go out to socialize after work every day, but returns to the villa on time to accompany Xu Simu.
Xu Simu was bored, and Zhou Hanyue also helped her find a yoga teacher.
When she has nothing to do, she practices yoga, and then finds Fu Wanxi and Qi Ran to accompany her.
The moment Fu Wanxi saw Xu Simu, she was still tense, and Qi Ran looked completely collapsed.
"Damn, you ...... Did you go and poke a hornet's nest?"
Xu Simu nodded, "Did you stab a hornet's nest, or a poisonous hornet." ā
Qi Ran walked up to Xu Simu's side, "Lu Qing?"
"Hmm. ā
Qi Ran's performance is a little indescribable.
Fu Wanxi also knew a little about Xu Simu, and knew that she had a deep grudge with this mother, who was originally a stepmother pretending to be her own mother, but she couldn't make any suggestions.
"Does Zhou Hanyue know about this?"
"I know," Xu Simu shrugged, "Lu Qing adheres to the wrist she has always done, and she didn't leave a handle, and there is no physical evidence pointing to hers." ā
Qi Ran couldn't help but burst into foul language.
"Damn! she's really psychopathic!"
Xu Simu laughed, "Last time, you rushed upstairs to pull me down and persuade me not to act rashly, you are now called impulsive." ā
Qi Ran glanced at Xu Simu and covered his eyes.
"No, it's too spicy. ā
Xu Simu slapped him directly on the head, "It's still not a buddy!
Qi Ran crossed his hands in front of his chest.
"Refuse to admit that they are sisters. ā
He glanced at Xu Simu's face again, and turned his head over, "By the way, your husband can stand you like this?"
"Yes!" Xu Simu said, "We are still in the same bed!"
Qi Ran swallowed his saliva and arched his hand, "Go back and ask me for a sign of your husband, I respect him as a good man!"
Fu Wanxi slapped Qi Ran's hand away, "Don't be poor first," she turned to Xu Simu, "Your face is like this, what about the wedding?"
Xu Simu is actually very worried.
"Zhou Hanyue didn't say anything about postponing the wedding, and my matter is now confidential and has not been announced. ā
Qi Ran interjected: "If it is announced, it is estimated that it will explode on the Internet." ā
In the past few days, the popularity of Xu Simu's beauty video has risen, and it has simply surpassed the popular beauty bloggers.
Fu Wanxi glared at Qi Ran again, and continued to ask, "Then what are you going to do at the wedding?"
Fu Wanxi's question is also Xu Simu's inner question.
Until the evening, an uninvited guest arrived.
The person who came was none other than Hua Zheng.
Xu Simu hurriedly found a mask to put on to avoid being rude.
Hua Zheng didn't show too much surprise when he saw him, and asked the little assistant to wait for her in the hall outside, so he took his work bag and went to the bedroom with her.
"It was Wednesday who asked me to come. ā
Xu Simu was puzzled for a moment, and saw that Hua Zheng had already taken out the tape measure and draft sample from the work bag.
"I'll give you a custom veil. ā
Xu Simu blinked his eyes and understood at once.
It turned out that Zhou Hanyue said two days ago that she would be the most beautiful bride, and the meaning of the words was like this.
Hua Zheng showed Xu Simu the pattern of the veil, and finally confirmed one, "I'll hurry up here, and it will be done in two days, ensuring that no one can see it." ā
Xu Simu thanked him, bowed and sent Hua Zheng to the door.
Hua Zheng waved her hand and asked her to hurry in.
"This matter has to be kept secret, you better not show up, or it will be trouble again. ā
"Thank you. ā
Xu Simu finally had a heart in his stomach.
She went back to her room to look at the invitation.
The invitation was made by Zhou Hanyue, and he handled everything for the wedding, she didn't spend a little brain and physical strength, Zhou Hanyue arranged everything in an orderly manner.
Xu Simu glanced at the list of bridesmaids and groomsmen.
In addition to Fu Wanxi, they are all familiar single men and women, four bridesmaids and four groomsmen.
However, what she didn't expect was that there were white kites in the bridesmaid list.
Xu Simu remembers this name vividly.
At that time, the visual impact of the white kite on her was quite big.
However, during this time, Zhou Hanyue did not cross the line, whether it was with Xu Qingya or this white kite.
It's just that......
Zhou Hanfeng's words came to her mind again, and then she thought of Shu Qing, and couldn't help frowning.
Shu Qing......
This man is a thorn.
Everything else was what she guessed, but Shu Qing was ambiguous what she had seen with her own eyes.
The more she remembered that incident, the more she remembered what she saw at the family banquet, her stomach was full of anger.
"Who you off?"
Just when Xu Simu locked his eyebrows, Zhou Hanyue's voice came from behind him.
She thought about things too seriously, so she didn't even notice when Zhou Hanyue came back.
She looked at Zhou Hanyue, snorted, and walked straight past the man, without giving him a single straight eye.
Zhou Hanyue stretched out his hand and pulled her over, "It seems that you are angry with me?" He turned his eyes and saw the list of invitations and bridesmaids and groomsmen spread out in front of Xu Simu, "Are you not satisfied with the list?"
Xu Simu didn't speak.
Zhou Hanyue held her shoulder, asked her to come over, sat on the sofa, and pulled her over to sit on his lap.
"Did Hua Zheng come to measure the veil in the afternoon?"
"It's coming. ā
"Not satisfied with the veil?"
Xu Simu snorted and didn't speak.
Zhou Hanyue glanced at the list placed on the coffee table again, and saw the name of the white kite at a glance, "Is it because I invited the white kite in the bridesmaid list?"
Xu Simu looked at him and squinted his eyes, "Mr. Zhou, if you are not too thorough in psychological research, you have a ghost in your heart." ā
Zhou Hanyue hooked his lips, "What do you think?"
"I think you just have a ghost in your heart!"
"I'm sorry, but this time it's the former. ā
Xu Simu turned his head to look at him, "Really?"
"Really. ā
"I don't believe it. ā
Xu Simu was about to get up, but was taken down by Zhou Hanyue and pressed on his leg again.
"In this way, you answer the phone," Zhou Hanyue dialed a number, "It's me...... Well, Simu has something to say to you. ā
Before Xu Simu could react, the man had already handed the mobile phone to her ear.
She glanced at the name of the "white kite" displayed on the screen of her mobile phone, and was a little surprised.
By the earpiece, the white kite had already opened its mouth.
"Mrs. Zhou. ā
Such a title made Xu Simu simply disrespectful.
The white kite said: "The last time I was in the hot spring hall, I was really snubbed, I didn't know that you were Han Yue's wife, and afterwards, he had already introduced your identity very seriously." ā
"It's okay......"
White Kite continued: "I'm on a flight to City C the day after tomorrow, thank you for inviting me, a half-aged who hasn't met yet, to be your bridesmaid." ā
"It's nothing, it's also arranged by Zhou Hanyue......"
"Then we'll see you then," the white kite smiled, "just don't dislike me for being the eldest of your bridesmaids." ā
Until he hung up the phone, Xu Simu was a little stunned.
Zhou Hanyue put his phone aside, "Do you still have questions?"
Xu Simu snorted at Zhou Hanyue.
"You've already discussed it with White Kite, right?"
"What are you discussing?"
Xu Simu said: "Even if you are a bridesmaid, you have to accompany you on the red carpet once in a lifetime." ā
Zhou Hanyue picked up the glass and just drank a glass of water, and when he heard this, he coughed.
Xu Simu: "Hehe, the reaction is so big, is it that I am right?"
Zhou Hanyue took out a tissue to wipe the corners of his mouth, and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ā
"I think so, otherwise, I'm almost four months pregnant, and you haven't touched me once, you must have eaten outside before coming back. ā
Zhou Hanyue leaned back, one hand lazily resting on the armrest of the sofa, and the other hand loosely wrapped around her waist.
"Yo, Mrs. Zhou, are you expressing your dissatisfaction with me?"
Xu Simu almost bit his tongue.
"Nope!"
She immediately denied it!
"I'm just giving you an analogy, for example, you know?"
"Of course I understand," Zhou Hanyue directly circled Xu Simu, who wanted to slip away, "I already regarded it as your invitation." ā
"I didn't have an offer!"
"Then take it as proof that I desperately want to do it," Zhou Hanyue said, "Let you feel for yourself whether I have eaten secretly outside." ā
"No need, I believe you!"
"It's late. ā
Xu Simu was struggling, and Zhou Hanyue got up, bent down and hugged Xu Simu horizontally.
"Eh......"
Zhou Hanyue hugged her and strode up the stairs.
"It's already four months pregnant, how can it be so light, you have to make up for it in the future, for our daughter. ā
Xu Simu's mind was a little confused, he was thrown on the big bed by Zhou Hanyue, and when the man leaned over, he would not be able to come to his senses.
"You...... Don't forget I'm pregnant. ā
"I always remember that it has been almost four months, and the first three months of danger have passed," Zhou Hanyue said, "If you are worried, you can call Jinmo and listen to the advice of a professional doctor." ā
Xu Simu blocked his hand.
"Still won't work!"
"Why not?"
"Because I ......" Xu Simu couldn't find the words, "Now I'm full of bags, right," she seemed to have found an excellent excuse, "I'm too ugly now, my face is full of rashes, this is a bad experience for you!"
"I don't look at my face," Zhou Hanyue unbuttoned his shirt one by one, revealing his wheat-colored chest, "just look at the feeling." ā
āā¦ā¦ It feels like the most unreliable thing!"
Zhou Hanyue said lightly, "It's okay. ā
āā¦ā¦ā
Xu Simu felt that she was running out of words.
I was talking about the bridesmaids, how did this come to this topic?
Xu Simu racked his brains to argue with reason, trying to bring the topic back on track.
"I just remembered that I hadn't fed Luda yet. ā
As she spoke, she was about to get out of bed.
"If you don't want me to take that dog for neutering tomorrow," Zhou Hanyue circled Xu Simu, "You can lie down for me now." ā
āā¦ā¦ā
