Chapter 68: I've Lost Weight Recently
Yang Chunyan was stared at, she was really a little uncomfortable, she hesitated for a moment, took out all the things she had just bought for Huo Mu from shopping, and said diligently:
"Mother, these are some good things I saw when I was shopping with Xianggong over there just now, buy them back for you, I'm happy!"
Huo Mu smiled and nodded, and glanced at the silk pastries and other things that Yang Chunyan took out, her eyes were full of satisfaction, but her mind was obviously not on it.
"Yan'er, you put these things away first, my mother has something to say to you." Huo Mu stopped Yang Chunyan's busy work, and then spoke.
Yang Chunyan felt a little embarrassed, she hooked the corners of her mouth, put away all these things in front of her with some sneer, sat down in a proper manner, and said: "Mother, if there is anything, just say it." ”
Huo Mu, who had already prepared, suddenly got a little stuck after seeing Yang Chunyan's bright eyes, her mouth opened, and she didn't know where to start.
Yang Chunyan waited for a while, obviously seeing Huo Mu's speechless face, she was a little puzzled, she couldn't help it, and asked tentatively: "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Didn't you say there was something you wanted to talk to me about? ”
Liu Xi glanced at Huo's mother's face, and a strong disgust really rose in her heart, this dead old woman, she had already said it well, why did she suddenly retreat at a critical time?
"That's it...... Yan'er, I've been seeing if Yanshen has lost a lot of weight recently, and I'm a little unenergetic when I look at people. ”
Huo's mother thought about it and found that she still had no way to mention anything about taking a concubine for her son as soon as she opened her mouth, and the daughter-in-law in front of her was obviously not at fault, even if Huo's mother wanted Liu Xi to step into the door of the Huo family again, Huo's mother really couldn't open this mouth.
"Huh?" Yang Chunyan was stunned, she didn't expect Huo's mother to talk about this, she thought that Huo's mother was planning to continue to discuss the matter of having a child with herself.
Yang Chunyan lowered her head and pondered for a while, the more she thought about it, the more wrong she became, Huo Yanshen had lost weight recently? Still tired and haggard?
Why didn't Yang Chunyan feel this way, when the two of them were walking side by side on the road just now, chatting and laughing, Yang Chunyan felt that Huo Yanshen was full of energy, even Yang Chunyan, an otaku girl who was too lazy to walk and too lazy to go shopping, could be infected by Huo Yanshen's vigorous energy.
"Mother...... This, this is not, I don't think Xianggong's recent state is no different, not only is he thin and has no energy as my mother said, I look at him with a red face, and he is very energetic. ”
Yang Chunyan really couldn't figure it out, so she had to speak weakly and say her thoughts.
Huo's mother was faced, and her face sank slightly: "In the end, it is my biological son, although he is married to a daughter-in-law, but no matter how you say it, her mother will always be the one who loves him the most!" You can't see it, I can see it! ”
Yang Chunyan's cheeks flushed, and she hurriedly lowered her head, she felt that she must have offended Huo's mother by what she said just now.
Huo Mu and Yang Chunyan were stunned for a while, and then slowly spoke:
"Yan'er, my mother is not accusing you of anything, it's just that you, as a wife, should think about your husband first in everything, you are still young and have just entered the door for a short time, and I don't ask you to be as virtuous and thoughtful as the daughter-in-law of Aunt Wang next door, but this is the least state of your husband, you must always take a look at it, right?"
Yang Chunyan nodded, just lowered her head and listened, not daring to say another word, but in fact, she was very depressed in her heart.
Obviously, the family came out to play happily today, how could it turn into Huo Mu's preaching conference on the way back and forth? And in front of outsiders.
Yang Chunyan secretly glanced around, so she felt more and more that her breathing was a little unsmooth, she sighed silently, Huo Mu is really good at choosing time, it just so happens that the space in this carriage is small, even if Yang Chunyan can really find an excuse to hide, she has no place to go.
"Yan'er, do you remember what I said?"
Huo Mu saw Yang Chunyan's rare meekness today, and thought that she was right, so that Yang Chunyan really couldn't refute it, and her heart became even more proud.
"Remember my mother, when I go back, my daughter-in-law will definitely take care of my husband more carefully, cook more delicious food for him, raise him for nothing, and make my mother happy when I turn back."
If it was before, Yang Chunyan would probably pull Huo Yanshen in front of Huo's mother, and let Huo's mother take a closer look, Huo Yanshen didn't look hungry and thin.
It's just that now that the family is in the carriage, Huo Yanshen really can't leave, and Yang Chunyan can only get down first, so as not to make Huo's mother angry.
"That's right, this is the attitude and what a daughter-in-law should have."
Huo Mu looked at Yang Chunyan so well-behaved, and she had nothing to say, she just nodded, and she seemed to be able to hear a hair falling out quietly in the carriage for a while.
Liu Xi secretly cursed Huo Mu who escaped from the battle thousands of times in his heart, but if Huo Mu didn't bring up this kind of thing, he would not be able to raise it first.
Liu Xi hesitated for a long time, he could only sit there alone and sulk, his fingers stirring his clothes vigorously, and if he didn't pay attention, the resentful expression on his face was seen by Yang Chunyan.
Yang Chunyan was worried that there was no place to pick up other topics, she saw Liu Xi's appearance, as if she had a big opinion on what Huo Mu said to herself just now, Yang Chunyan smiled slightly, and asked:
"Miss Liu Xi, what's wrong with you? Why do you look in pain, is there something uncomfortable? ”
Liu Xi was asked by Yang Chunyan coldly, and was stunned for a moment, Huo Mu also looked at Liu Xi after hearing this, Huo Mu saw that Liu Xi's eyes seemed to have tears jumping, and her face was slightly red, as if she had been angry for a long time.
Huo's mother guessed one or two in her heart, she was very guilty, she felt that she had not done this matter well enough, and she had obviously decided the matter in front of other girls, but when it came to the real critical moment, she retreated.
"That...... Miss Liu Xi has been burning incense and praying after me today, she must be tired. ”
Huo Mu paused, knowing that Liu Xi would definitely not be able to answer Yang Chunyan's question for a while, so she opened her mouth to answer for Yang Chunyan.
Yang Chunyan nodded, and there was no unusual emotion on her face.
Seeing this, Huo Mu simply spoke, as if she was talking to herself:
"It's not that the old woman likes to pick thorns, this is carefully said, Miss Liu Xi is more sensible than my own son and daughter-in-law, knowing that my wife is alone in the Dragon King Temple, lest she be tired of me, Liu Xi followed me inch by inch, and supported and served tea, so it was not hard."
Yang Chunyan's scalp was a little numb when she heard these words, she was very puzzled why Huo Mu suddenly chattered in this regard, as soon as she got there today, Yang Chunyan glanced at the Dragon King Temple sitting in front of her, there were not a few steps in front of her, and although there were more people coming and going, it would not be crowded to bump into it.
It is precisely because of this that Yang Chunyan and Huo Yanshen are relieved to go to the streets on the other side.
"My mother is right, my daughter-in-law is ashamed." Although she thought so in her heart, Yang Chunyan was not a person with a rectum and a brain, so she bowed her head respectfully and obediently expressed her apologies.
Huo Mu has no way to take Yang Chunyan this time, although Yang Chunyan used to say that she was also low-eyebrowed, but if she encountered some accusations on the way, Yang Chunyan would still raise her head and refute two sentences.
It was precisely because she knew that Yang Chunyan had such a habit that Huo's mother casually picked a fault that was not her fault and placed it on Yang Chunyan's head, forcing Yang Chunyan to refute herself, and she took advantage of the situation to bring up that her daughter-in-law was not filial and could not take good care of Huo Yanshen, so she proposed to give Huo Yanshen a concubine.
But...... But how did Yang Chunyan's temper become so docile? Huo Mu felt that she was puzzled.
"This ...... Speaking of which, I don't blame you, people have both strengths and weaknesses, Yan'er, although you are smart and capable, but in the end you are still weaker in the Gu family, if Miss Liu Xi is also my daughter-in-law, then the inside and outside of the Huo family must be properly cleaned up by the two of you, and Yanshen will be able to go to the outside with peace of mind. ”
Huo's mother was unwilling, she was unwilling to run into walls one after another with Yang Chunyan, so she hesitated, gritted her teeth, and said all the words that had been brewing in her heart for a long time.
Liu Xi's breath stagnated, and then he was ecstatic in his heart, and he almost didn't stretch out his hand to applaud.
Yang Chunyan was also stunned, she raised her head to look at Huo's mother, and chewed Huo's mother's words carefully in her heart.
Could it be that Huo Mu is serious? Or is it just an unconscious whining?
If it's serious...... What does the phrase "also my daughter-in-law" mean.
Yang Chunyan racked her brains to think about what her mother meant by saying this, she couldn't help but raise her hand and scratch her head, and couldn't answer for a while.
"Yan'er, what are you thinking?" Huo Mu finally stumped Yang Chunyan with her words, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, sometimes it is not a good thing to find a daughter-in-law who is too smart.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, I'm just thinking, how nice it would be if Xianggong had another brother! In this way, we can hire Miss Liu Xi home and be my mother's daughter-in-law! ”
Yang Chunyan smiled slightly, and replied unhurriedly, she didn't bother to delve into what Huo Mu just said meant, so she just picked the words in another direction.
Huo Mu's face changed, this was obviously about to be explained thoroughly, why did Yang Chunyan run to the other side as soon as she spoke?
Liu Xi couldn't help it on the side, she could see it, looking at Huo Mu, she didn't know when she would be able to say it, Liu Xi was very anxious now, and she didn't have much patience to wait.
