447 Laughter
In this world, there is only the word sincerity, and there will be no fraud. What's more, in front of a shrewd person like Old Madam Xia? Only sincerity can pass her level.
Sure enough, after a while, Mrs. Xia breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, a little emotional, and a little relieved. "The old body has never raised a girl in his life, and our Xia Mansion is mostly a man, but there are very few girls who are like flowers and jade, delicate and tender, not to mention, this is still the daughter of my family, so the old body is naturally a little more worried, asked more questions, and asked Lord Shen for forgiveness!"
"Where is the old lady, since you are asking today as an elder, you will naturally ask something, and you should answer something. After all, if the old lady agrees, she will call you 'grandmother' with Huanhuan'er. Shen Yue smiled slightly.
Ye Xinyi glanced at him, this person is usually thick-skinned, when she was in the capital, she called her father a "father", and she shouted affectionately and naturally.
Sure enough, his words immediately pleased Mrs. Xia, and the last trace of solemnity on her face collapsed in an instant, and she only felt solemn and majestic when she saw her face earlier, but now she smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum, and nodded again and again, "Yes!" It's good not to see the outside, where can I see the grandmother? Saying that, he glanced at Ye Xinyi hopefully, although the grandfather and grandson had been talking for a long time, but Ye Xinyi had never mentioned her "grandmother", and she didn't dare to ask, but Shen Yue mentioned it first.
Ye Xinyi naturally knew the meaning of Mrs. Xia's gaze, but it was not as awkward as when she called Ye Shi'an at first, this is grandmother after all, and since getting along, she has not rejected it, therefore, it is not very difficult for the "grandmother" to shout, yes, she groaned slightly, and said with a smile, "Grandmother, don't listen to him, this person is usually a thick-skinned person." When I was in the capital, my father was coaxed by him to hurt him more than I hurt my daughter, and my grandmother must not be poured two mouthfuls of soup by him, so I went to him, my grandmother promised me before, and I would support me in the future. Ye Xinyi said as he raised his chin as if he was demonstrative, glaring at Shen Yue.
Shen Yue couldn't cry or laugh.
Old Mrs. Xia was softened by Ye Xinyi's "grandmother", and she smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth, where could she still see half of the old look of not approaching?
I was very happy in my heart, I said two words about this, and coaxed two more sentences over there, and I was amused by the couple to laugh, and before I entered the house, I could hear the laughter that could not be hidden in the house.
Outside the house, a burly figure stood with his back in his hand, and Fleur stood beside him.
She was just about to face in and lift the curtain when she was glared at by the man and stopped all movements.
The man did not go in, nor did he leave, but stood here for a long time.
Even though Fleur was already calm, at this point, she couldn't help but quietly look up at him.
But seeing that Xia Changhe was frowning, his face was condensed, but there was no anger, but he was a little weak, and when he noticed Furong's gaze, he withdrew his gaze and looked at it coldly.
Furong hurriedly retracted her gaze, bent her knees and said, "Since the third prince left home, the old lady has not been so happy for a long time, and she just used two bowls of bird's nest porridge at the banquet. Checkmate...... Really don't go in and have a look? Furong lowered her voice, but raised her eyes and quietly glanced at Xia Changhe, and quickly lowered her head.
Xia Changhe frowned, and there was some sharp pain in his heart. There are many children in the Xia family, but the one who likes to drill in front of Mrs. Xia the most is Xia Yanfeng. Mrs. Xia's favorite is naturally him, although it may not be as good as Xia Changqing at the beginning, but the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren is also very good. At the beginning, he complained about Mrs. Xia because Xia Yanfeng often went against him, and finally ran away in anger, and he always felt that he was indulged by her, Xia Changqing was like this in the past, and Xia Yanfeng is still like this now.
But in the past, when the Cheyenne wind was there, he came here occasionally, and he could still hear the voices of people in this courtyard. Ever since Xia Yanfeng left home, the courtyard seemed to be devoid of the breath of the living, as quiet as a dead man's grave, and every time he came back, he felt as if he was about to suffocate. As for the laughter coming from the house at this time, how many years have I not heard it?
He lowered his eyes and said, "No, don't tell them I've been here." Then Xia Changhe turned around and strode outside.
He walked quickly, and soon his figure was obscured by the thick shade of the trees.
Fleur withdrew her gaze again, lowered her head, and after a moment, sighed faintly.
After Xia Changhe left Old Madam Xia's courtyard, he went straight to the main courtyard. He is very busy these days, so busy that he doesn't dare to let himself be idle easily, let alone think of Xia Yanfeng, when he heard that Yu was sick, he took the time to come and see it, but he didn't dare to stay longer. At that time, Yu was groggy and unconscious, but he couldn't help but have tears in the corners of his eyes.
Xia Changhe didn't dare to go to her again, he was afraid that they would make the pain in his heart worse if they faced each other.
However, when he went to Mrs. Xia's place, he suddenly became scared again. He was afraid of the same pain of losing his son, Mrs. Xia was like a living dead, the walking dead had passed for so many years, if the Yu family was also ruined because of this, what should he do?
When he arrived at the main courtyard, the atmosphere was really stagnant, but it was also a little familiar, wasn't it the grave-like dead silence he felt in the courtyard of Old Madam Xia all the year round?
Xia Changhe's steps paused slightly, but he still stepped straight in.
Mama Du came out with a tray, and when she saw him, she was stunned and hurriedly bowed.
Xia Changhe waved his hand, excused her from the courtesy, and while looking at the movement of the main room, he looked down at the tray she was holding in her hand, and saw that there was a bowl of porridge on the tray, but it was almost full, and he couldn't help frowning and said, "Madame didn't eat?" ”
It's dinner time.
Mama Du shook her head with a sad face, "Madame only let me withdraw after two bites, and the slave didn't dare to persuade her." It's easy for the general to come, so let's go in and see Madame quickly, so I can persuade her to rest a lot. ”
Xia Changhe waved his hand to let Mama Du retreat.
He stood outside the door again, then lifted the curtain and went straight into the house.
The house was also quiet, and Xia Changhe went directly through the flower hall and went around into the inner room.
Turning the screen, I saw the person standing by the window.
Xia Changhe hurriedly strode over, stretched out his hand from behind, and said while closing the window, "The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the weather is cool, the wind is cold at night, why are you standing by the window blowing the wind, what should you do if you catch a cold?" ”
The man was dressed in plain white bedclothes, and a lilac-colored robe was casually draped, which was none other than Yu's. It's just that compared with the previous two days, her figure has lost a lot of weight, not to mention, her face is slightly white, not very good-looking. A pair of deep sunken eyes lifted up, looked at him, and opened his mouth to gasp a little weakly, "Why are you here?" ”
