Chen Ji had already given George a rumor, and he said it very cleverly, only saying that the Xie family was beginning to prepare to find a good son-in-law for the second lady, but because of the old thinking of the Xie family and his wife, I am afraid that they will not be able to accept a foreigner to be their son-in-law for a while, so Wan Tian wants to come over and discuss a countermeasure with him.

This made George feel very excited, and the foreigner, who was still full of romantic thoughts, began to look forward to Wantian's arrival, just as he had looked forward to their Christmas when he was young.

Before leaving, Xie Huai'an wrote a letter to his brother Xie Huaichang, who was far away in Beijing, informing him of the Zheng family's information. This is still Wanlan's reminder, because she is not sure whether Mrs. Qin will make a temporary decision to hire this daughter-in-law for Xie Huaichang after seeing Miss Zheng.

Xie Huaichang did not reply, but called him directly, and said in a solemn tone that he might have to go overseas again. Xie Huai'an hadn't taken it seriously before, but it wasn't until Xie Huaichang said that this was Xie Daoyong's arrangement that he felt something unusual.

"Are you still working under my father-in-law?" Xie Huai'an asked, "What's wrong?"

Xie Huaichang said: "I don't know, it doesn't seem to be anything." I plan to go to the United States and study in a military academy again, and I don't need to re-learn the language. ”

Xie Huai'an has no confidence in the political situation, so he very much hopes that Xie Huaichang can occupy a pivotal position in a certain side of the north and the south. But Xie Daoyong will never do meaningless things, he wants to send Xie Huaichang out of the country, there must be some crisis that he has discovered.

Xie Daoyong was tight-lipped about this, no matter how Xie Huaichang knocked on the side, he never leaked a word, Xie Huaian felt more and more uneasy about this, and had to postpone his departure to Shanghai for a day, and went to Xie Daozhong to talk about it.

However, he didn't mention a word to Wu Xinyi, not only him, but Xie Daozhong also seemed to think of something with him. Everyone who knew about this, including Wanlan, kept silent about Wu Xinyi without exception.

The person who is kept in the dark is always the happiest in the process, no matter what the outcome is, because there is no need to be frightened or think about the uncertain future. This is thanks to Xie Huai'an's quiet performance, so that when she bids him off, she can still act like a reluctant child.

"You have married a wife who regards you as heaven," Wanlan said, "She will believe whatever you say." ”

Xie Huai'an couldn't hear the subtext in her tone, nor could he see any heresy from her demeanor, so he could only smile at her: "I didn't hide it from her to harm her." ”

Wanlan asked him rhetorically: "Then what are you for?"

Xie Huai'an opened his mouth, but he couldn't say the reason, because this was a completely knee-jerk reaction, and he subconsciously felt that this matter should not be known to Wu Xinyi.

"Sister didn't say anything, why?"

Wanlan pursed her lips: "I don't know which one she will choose between her father and you." ”

Xie Huai'an stopped talking again, as if he was silently mourning for the meager trust between him and Wu Xinyi and his wife, and began to be suspicious and suspicious when nothing had happened, not even the slightest sign of it was going to happen. He was not a worthy husband, and he rightly doubted whether she was a worthy wife.

George and Chen Ji greeted them in Shanghai, and Chen Ji brought a number of people to serve Wanlan like a lady in the palace, accompanied by a smiling face and a warm greeting. George watched from the sidelines and said to Wan Tian: "I suddenly feel that my father is really a very happy profession. ”

He tilted his head and stared at her with a smile: "Especially when you become a parent with your beloved." ”

Wan Tian looked hard into his blue eyes, and then it occurred to her that she had rarely had such a direct eye contact with George, first because he was too enthusiastic and she was too shy, and then because the two of them relied more on letters than face-to-face conversations. He had expressed his desire to live with her a long time ago, but she was not sure how true and false this wish was.

George has a house in Shanghai, in the same concession as Chen Ji, but not very close, the house is a three-story milky white western-style building, with a garden in front and back, with European-style decoration, and even has a cook and a housekeeper who is used as a manservant. But when others visited the mansion with praise, Wan Tian always looked worried.

Wanlan asked her, "You don't seem to be very happy to see him." ”

Wan Tian sat opposite her, talking to her while serving the flower tea on the small stove, listening to her ask, she didn't say anything for a long time.

Wanlan asked again, "Are you doubting the future of the two of you?"

Wan Tian said slowly: "I am different from Sister A, my future is too unpredictable, there are too many difficulties to overcome, but I am not sure that I can grow old together." I heard that divorce is allowed between husband and wife in their country, and it sounds good, but in fact it is just one party abandoning the other, I don't know how long George's feelings for me last, I dare not gamble the rest of my life on a man's mind. ”

Wanlan didn't speak for a long time, and comforting words are always easy to say, because the consequences don't have to be borne by the person who speaks, and the only thing she can guarantee is that when Wantian's marriage is unhappy, if she is willing to return to her, then she is willing to be responsible for the rest of her life.

The men were chatting while drinking coffee in the living room on the first floor, and from time to time hearty laughter came up, Wan Tian leaned sideways against the window of the study on the second floor and looked down, and saw the autumn garden, and a sparrow stopped on the nearby branch, chirped twice, and flapped its wings and flew away.

She sighed softly: "What a nice house, the same as their house in Yorkshire. ”

Wanlan asked, "Have you gone to their house and seen his elders?"

Wan Tian nodded: "I've seen it, it's not satisfactory, they don't like the Chinese, and they don't like China." ”

Wanlan comforted her: "No, if they don't like it, how can they cultivate such a George?"

Wan Tian smiled: "That just doesn't like me." ”

Wanlan opened her mouth and said with a smile: "You really have to gain and lose. ”

Wan Tian glanced at her, and sighed softly: "I am unwilling not to marry him, and it is too hard to marry him, it is really difficult to choose." ”

Wanlan said: "If he will stay in China forever, then you don't have to worry about whether his parents like you or not." ”

"He won't stay in China forever," Wan Tian said calmly: "This is just a foothold for him, not his destination, maybe he can stay for me for a few more years, but after all, he still has to go back to his country." ”

Wanlan didn't know what to say again, and she couldn't even figure out if Wantian had already made a decision, because she didn't seem to have the slightest intention of asking herself for advice. There was laughter on the first floor, and there was even the sound of the piano, and after a while, someone knocked on the door outside: "What are you two sisters talking about?"

Wan Tian walked over and opened the door, the sound of the piano became clearer and clearer, Chen Ji stood outside the door, with a smile in his eyebrows, and nodded to her: "Ah Tian can't go down and take a look? I never knew that George also had a good piano skill, and I never heard him play." ”

Wan Tian smiled at him, thanked him politely and went down, Chen Ji walked into the room and squatted down beside Wan Lan, and gently put his hand on her bulging belly: "I didn't go to Zhenjiang to pick you up, I won't be angry, right?"

Wanlan laughed: "How can you be so easy to get angry." ”

Chen Ji's smile deepened a little, and he kissed her lingering on the back of her hand: "There is something I have to report to my wife, during your absence, I am very honest, I have not picked flowers or broken willows, and I will not let you drink newcomer tea after you are out of confinement." ”

Wanlan couldn't help laughing, and deliberately made an official tone: "Okay, you did a good job, you should be rewarded." ”

Chen Ji said: "How is the wife going to reward me?"

Wanlan touched her stomach with her other hand: "In the future, this child will be born, so I will reward you with it." ”

"It's a good calculation," Chen Ji laughed, and said, "But I can't ask for it." ”

Wanlan looked at him with a soft gaze, and the hand on his stomach was raised to caress his stubble chin, Chen Ji got up and leaned over, inhaled softly in her ear and sighed: "It's really abrasive, you did it on purpose." ”

Wanlan put her hand on his shoulder and said with a smile: "It's really not, help me, we should go downstairs." ”

Chen Ji sighed again, carefully helped her up, and asked again, "Do you want Ah Tian to stay here tonight?"

"How is that possible?" Wanlan looked at him in surprise, "She has to go back with us." ”

"That's good," Chen Ji said, "I'm going to invite two guests to my house for dinner tomorrow, and Ah Tian can just take care of you at the banquet." ”

Chen Ji's every decision always has a purpose, or it can be put another way, always for the benefits it wants to get, Wanlan has never asked much, but this time when it comes to Ah Tian, she has to say more: "What?"

Chen Ji said: "Don't let her do anything, as long as she is there." ”

Those who can be invited to the house for dinner can be seen to be very close friends, and there is a bit of a good meaning to get through the family. Chen Ji introduced Wan Lan and Wan Tian to the visitors, one was his wife, and the other was his sister-in-law, the wife of the Earl Spencer of the British Empire.

Wanlan and Wantian were surprised, but the outsiders were here, neither of them showed it, and the guests were very polite to them, calling their younger siblings and the second lady one after another, and talking about their intimate relationship with Chen Ji. Wan Tian rarely spoke, and Wan Lan accompanied the three rounds of wine and took her sister back to the inner room.

"Yuji has gone too far this time!" Wanlan said as soon as she entered the room: "I don't know the severity, I dare to say anything." ”

Wan Tian's expression was a little trance-like, Wan Lan looked at her face, couldn't help worrying, and called her softly: "Ah Tian......"

"Sister, it's okay with me," Wan Tian rolled her eyes and looked at Wan Lan: "It's just that I and George Mo said that they were married, and they didn't even have the status of marriage, and my brother-in-law's lie wouldn't last long, and if it was exposed in the future, I am afraid I wouldn't be able to come to the stage." ”

"That's what he brought on himself," Wanlan seemed to be even more angry than Wantian: "It's also okay if you can't get off the stage." ”

Wan Tian smiled silently, not wanting to talk more, so she asked, "You just ate very little, are you hungry now?" Do you want me to ask Mother Feng to bring some snacks or sweet soup?"
