After Li Ning finished speaking, he asked Shen Muzhi strangely; "Didn't Mu Xing or Bai Xian tell you about this?"

"I told you what happened, but I didn't say that you also went." Shen Muzhi responded.

Li Ning couldn't help but smile, "I'm afraid that you will worry about me, so I told Bai Xian, if no one takes the initiative to ask, don't say that I will go too." It seems that he still keeps his promises. After a pause, Li Ning hurriedly said, "I asked him to do this, don't blame him." ”

Shen Muzhi smiled lightly and agreed to Li Ning.

"And tomorrow, will we go to the mansion together early in the morning?" Li Ning turned to the topic and asked.

Shen Muzhi nodded again, "Let's go together, but go to the Shuangling Temple, we will do sacrifices there." ”

This is the first time that Li Ning has participated in such an event since marrying Shen Muzhi, so he paid special attention to asking: "Then are there any rules to pay attention to tomorrow?" What should I do? ”

"The sacrifice is presided over by the master in the temple, and you don't need to do anything, you just need to follow me at that time, and if you need anything, someone will guide you."

"Okay then." Li Ning responded.

"Don't think about it, there's nothing to worry about." Shen Muzhi saw that Li Ning was very concerned, and couldn't help but smile and shook her lightly, and Wen Yan said with relief.

Li Ning sneered, "It's the first time I've participated in such an event, and I'm afraid that I won't understand anything and make a fool of myself." Or make grandma unhappy because of some broken rules. Li Ning voiced her concerns.

Shen Muzhi shook Li Ning's hand a little harder, and said in a firm tone: "Don't worry, I have everything." ”

Following.

Before the day was completely dawn, Li Ning had already gotten up and started to wash and prepare, for fear that he would be late.

Usually Shen Muzhi gets up first, but when he opened his eyes early this morning, he suddenly saw that the position next to him was empty, and he couldn't help but feel strange, and then he heard the sound of water from the bathroom, and knew that Li Ning got up early in the morning to prepare.

The air of the winter morning was mixed with a unique forest coolness, Li Ning and Shen Muzhi rode to Shuangling Temple together, while Shen Muxing drove there alone.

Shuangling Temple is located on a hill outside the city, drive nearly two and a half hours to reach the destination, the temple is full of incense, and there is a Shen family ancestral hall in the courtyard.

The inside and outside of the ancestral hall have long been properly prepared, because they are not on the same road as the pilgrims who put incense on the main hall, so the courtyard of the ancestral hall is very clean.

There were already a few people standing scattered in the courtyard, talking in twos and threes, the doors of the wings on both sides were open, and there were also a few people sitting and talking on the stools inside.

Among these people, some Li Ning looks familiar, and some are completely unfamiliar, but they also know that they are all Shen clan relatives, but they have nothing to do on weekdays, and everyone will not get together.

"Mu Zhi is here."

As soon as Li Ning and Shen Muzhi entered the door, a middle-aged man greeted them with a smile.

"Uncle." Shen Muzhi smiled lightly and said hello to him.

Li Ning didn't know this person, but he also followed Shen Muzhi to call his uncle.

"This is Li Ning. I was recuperating abroad when you got married, and I'm sorry I didn't make it back in time for your wedding. Uncle said politely with some apologies.

"It doesn't matter. We have received your congratulatory gift. Are you feeling better? Shen Muzhi greeted him.

Uncle smiled, "It's still the same, just spend money to save your life." He sighed again, "I didn't think before, but I didn't think that health was the most important thing until I was really sick, and the other things were all external objects, and once I left, I was just empty-handed." You have to take good care of your body while you are young, but don't be like me. ”

"Now that medical technology is very developed, I see that your complexion is much better than the last time we met, and I believe that as long as you actively treat and cooperate with recuperation, it will get better and better." Shen Muzhi picked good ones.

"Then my uncle will borrow your auspicious words."

After he left, Li Ning asked Shen Muzhi in a low voice: "I didn't know that you still had an aunt before?" ”

"It's just a distant relative, not my father's sister." Shen Muzhi explained.

Li Ning shook his head, "No wonder I don't have any impressions." But then again, the Shen family has a huge family, and I almost met once when I got married and held a family banquet with my grandmother. At that time, I already thought that there were a lot of people, but today, it seems that there are still many fresh faces. ”

As Li Ning was talking, someone came to talk to Shen Muzhi to say hello, and then almost one after another, some Li Ning knew him, and some followed Shen Muzhi's name, obviously without any impression but pretending to be familiar with relatives and friends.

Nearly half an hour later, Shen Xunling's father and son and Li Ran also came.

At that time, Li Ning and Shen Muzhi were talking to someone, and their eyes swept to see Shen Xunling and his party who had just entered the door, and Li Ran was particularly eye-catching.

"That is the wife of Jinheng."

"It looks like. But there was no wedding, but looking at the way she was pregnant, it should be. ”

"I heard that it was the child who let her in, but the old lady was not very satisfied with her, so she never had a wedding."

"I've seen this woman before, she sprinkled at Old Man Yan's birthday banquet, and it was very ugly at the time. No wonder the old lady would have an opinion about her. ”

"That's right, if I wouldn't let my son marry such an unstable woman."

Li Ning heard others talking about Li Ran, and said everything.

What's more, the scandal between Li Ran and Shen Jinheng was also in the magazine at that time, so it was inevitable that there was a little disdain in the discussion of others.

Li Ran didn't hear the words from others, but saw that most of the people were looking at her curiously, which made her look a little complacent, and deliberately straightened her waist, wanting to show her slightly bulging abdomen. It was as if she was not pregnant with a child, but with some peerless treasure.

Li Ning felt a little ridiculous when she looked at her like that, but Li Ran misunderstood it as Li Ning's envy of her pregnancy, and smiled at Li Ning provocatively quite smugly.

Li Ning turned his head helplessly, hating to cut off all contact with her, and even using the same surname with her at this moment made Li Ning feel a little unable to raise his head.

And Shen Xun ordered them to enter the door with their front feet for a while, and the old lady Shen also came.

She was dressed in a retro Chinese suit, and her cane made a penetrating sound on the ground with every step she took, and she looked shimmering and not angry.

Everyone immediately took a few steps forward, and Li Ning and Shen Muzhi also came closer. Everyone greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries.

The master of the temple informed that the time was almost ready to start, and the old lady Shen took the lead and walked inside. But when passing by Li Ran's side, his footsteps paused slightly, and then he said in a deep voice: "Li Ran don't go in." ”

"It's Grandma." Shen Jinheng responded obediently.

And Li Ran was stunned for the moment, and at that moment she felt that the eyes around her pierced her like pins.
