Chapter 429: Shocked
Mrs. Shen walked over to Master Shen and asked softly, "Master, what's the matter?" ”
Master Shen raised his hand, and the little guy who passed the word swallowed hard, rolled his Adam's apple up and down, and hurriedly retreated. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Hair"
"Sir." Mrs. Shen reminded in Master Shen's ear: "Everyone is watching you. ”
Master Shen suddenly came back to his senses, and a smile appeared on his face: "It's okay, it's okay, everyone continue, continue!" ”
As he spoke, he held Mrs. Shen's hand tightly, and lowered his head sideways to whisper to Mrs. Shen.
Mrs. Shen's face was also shocked, and she looked at Master Shen in disbelief.
Master Shen's face was very heavy, and after a moment of silence, he beckoned the little servant to command, the little servant nodded, and then walked towards Shen Siye.
Li Xin sandwiched a piece of hibiscus cake, sipped it in his mouth, and melted in his mouth. The guests continued to talk noisily, and the lively voices suddenly resounded around them.
Xue Qingyan said, "Aunt Guan, do you think it's noisy? ”
Li Xin shook his head slightly, and Xue Qingyan said, "I think it's very noisy. Xue Qingyan pursed his lips: "I don't really like this atmosphere. ”
As he spoke, he got up, bowed down to Xue Qian, and said, "Father, Qingyan has eaten, so he will retreat." ”
Towards Xue Qian, Xue Qingyan's attitude was not like that of a son close to him, but like a subordinate, and his words and deeds were almost rigid.
Xue Qian didn't think it was wrong, and nodded and said, "Say hello to your uncles." ”
Xue Qingyan nodded yes, bowed to the elders at the table and then retired, and before leaving, he glanced at Li Xin again, pursed his lips, and finally showed a smile.
Li Xin smiled. looked at Xue Qingyan's back as he faded away.
He was only an eleven-year-old boy, strictly speaking, when he was in the fourth or fifth grade of elementary school. What was she doing when she was in the fourth or fifth grade?
Holding a Chinese textbook and memorizing the text, or are you reviewing the 99 multiplication formula? Or or. Do you have a headache with the moral class, or are you looking forward to music and physical education classes, which are equivalent to having fun?
Li Xin sighed lightly in his heart, and inadvertently swept Xue Qian's side face.
Treat the only son. Xue Qian also had a cold expression. I don't know what is important in this person's life.
However, it had nothing to do with her, and she only felt a little pity for the boy she had only seen today.
This wedding banquet can be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts, since the little guy came to pass the word, Master Shen, Mrs. Shen and Fourth Master Shen have disappeared, maybe there is something to solve. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Hair"
After the marriage ceremony is completed. Miss An officially became the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, and Guan Wen and Li Xin were finally able to let go of their worries.
Guan Wen was a lot more relaxed, and after Xue Qingyan left, he moved back to Li Xin and took a seat. didn't wait long, and someone sat down beside Xue Qian.
Shen Sanye stretched out his hand and patted Xue Qian's shoulder and asked, "Are you okay eating?" ”
"Not bad." Xue Qian nodded and said, "There are a few dishes." I asked your chef from Fumanlou to come back and make it, right? ”
Shen Sanye said with a smile: "Father talks about pomp, the wedding banquet is relatively high, and there is also a banquet on the side of Fumanlou to receive some other guests. ”
A maid came up and changed into a new pair of dishes and chopsticks, and Shen Sanye toasted everyone present and drank his stomach.
Xue Qian asked: "Shi Bo seems to have something to do, just a little girl passed the word, Shi Bo's face was a little bad." Is it a business thing? ”
Shen Sanye shrugged: "I never ask about his business." But business matters shouldn't make his face so ugly. Shen Sanye and Xue Qian had another drink: "I can't control the rest." ”
Shen Sanye drank it all. said: "I will return to Youzhou in a few days, and this time the return time is too long, and it will be half a year." ”
Xue Qian was silent for a moment and said, "In a few days, let's talk about it." ”
Shen Sanye nodded.
The Shen family provides excellent old wine, which tastes sweet and mellow. The guests ate and drank to their heart's content, and many of them were drunk. The maid shuttled in and out to help the drunk person to rest, Shen Sanye and Xue Qian were considered to be determined, and they were not drunk.
Since Li Xin married Guan Wen, Guan Wen has rarely drank, and the only time he got drunk and made jokes in front of Li Xin was only when he reconciled with Sun Hongyan. Today, Guan Wen also restrained himself from pushing a lot of wine, but after drinking some, he felt a little drunk.
Han Hao sent a maid to lead them to the wing room to rest, Guan Wen sat in the wing room and closed his eyes to recuperate, Li Xin stood in front of the door of the wing room, seeing the maid in front of him coming and going in a hurry, thinking of the little maid passing the word and Master Shen's face changed suddenly, and he was a little apprehensive in his heart. In addition, when I heard Shen Sanye say, business matters would not make Master Shen's face so ugly, and he was even more worried in his heart.
Li Xin nudged Guan Wen and told him what he thought.
Guan Wen was just a little drunk, not drunk, and after listening to Li Xin's words, he also thought about it carefully, and said: "It's not a business matter, it must be something that Master Shen cares about." ”
"What Master Shen cares about, isn't it Fourth Master Shen's marriage now?" Li Xin groaned: "Fourth Master Shen and Miss An have already married, and the marriage ceremony has been held, and Fourth Master Shen's lifelong event can be regarded as settled. What else would make Master Shen change his complexion? Could it be that there is a change in the marriage? ”
Guan Wen was silent for a moment, and shook his head slightly: "On such days and occasions, Master Shen must maintain peace on his face no matter what. As guests, it is impossible for us to know what is going on. ”
Li Xin naturally knew this truth, but she just felt a little uneasy.
Originally, when they came to the Shen family to watch the ceremony today, they already had some meaning of "surveillance" in their hearts, and they were relieved to see Miss An become the wife of the Shen family. Seeing that the marriage ceremony was over, they also thought that after eating this meal, even if everything was settled, everyone would return to where they should stand.
But something changed in the middle, the little guy's panicked behavior, and the face of Master Shen, who suddenly turned pale after listening to the little guy's words, made Li Xin have to mind.
Li Xin guarded Guan Wen, Guan Wen slept lightly, and woke up in only half an hour. After drinking a glass of water, Guan Wensui felt refreshed, and seeing Li Xin's worried expression, he thought for a while and said, "Why don't you find someone to investigate?" It also saves us from guessing. ”
"As you said, we, as guests, can't know what's going on." Li Xin shook his head and said, "Besides, the Shen family is extremely strict in governing the family, we asked the servants and subordinates, and said that they didn't know, and even if they knew, they wouldn't tell us." ”
The couple sat opposite each other for a while, but decided to say goodbye to Mrs. Shen and Fourth Master Shen.
Who knew that he asked a little steward, but the little steward said that the lady and the fourth master were not in the house. Hearing that they were resigned, he went to tell Han Xu.
Han Xu's face was also two points of worry, and he didn't keep Guan Wen and Li Xin, but said: "If today's hospitality is not thoughtful, Brother Guan, you still invite Duo Haihan." There are too many people, and we can't take care of them. ”
Guan Wen naturally said that it was okay, they understood, and Han Hao said: "The two of you must have something at home, and since you want to leave, I won't stay longer." ”
Han Hao summoned people to prepare a return gift for Guan Wen and Li Xin, which is a set of practical four treasures of the study.
"Madame knows that Brother Guan, your adopted son is going to school, so she specially ordered someone to purchase this set of four treasures of the study." Han Xu pushed the return gift in front of Guan Wen: "Please also ask Brother Guan and his younger siblings not to dislike it." ”
"Brother Han, this is also ......"
"No problem." Han Hao raised his hand and said, "Brother Guan just accept it, this is our Shen Mansion's intention." ”
Guan Wen had no choice but to let Han Hao convey his and Li Xin's thanks on his behalf.
"I ordered the men below to prepare a carriage for you." Han Hao said, "I'll send you out." ”
It wasn't until they got into the carriage that the carriage began to drive in the direction of Lotus Village, and Guan Wen and Li Xin were still a little unable to come to their senses.
Looking at Han Xu's appearance, it was as if he was eagerly asking them to leave.
Guan Wen whispered to Li Xin: "Something must have happened to the Shen family." ”
Li Xin nodded solemnly.
Back in Lotus Village, Guan Wen went to the old house non-stop. Li Xin asked Ah Mei if her second brother had said something had happened, Ah Mei shook her head and said, "No, the second brother has been in the old house and has not come back, and when I sent him lunch, he also said that there was no movement." ”
Feng De walked in front of the hall with his arms shining and helped another Gu family man carry a thick short stake, Li Xin stopped him, Feng Defa hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law Guan." ”
"Second Brother Feng, you went to the old house early this morning and came back, but did you go again?"
"Nope." Feng Defa hurriedly replied: "I just woke up and didn't have much time. ”
Li Xin is right to think about it, Feng Defa stayed up all night last night, and it is normal to make up for sleep until he got up today.
After a while, Guan Wen and Guan Wu came back together.
Guan Wu called Li Xin's sister-in-law, Guan Wen shook his head and said, "The second brother said that he has been guarding today, and Xiaoliu has never gone out." ”
Guan Wu answered: "Sister-in-law, what's going on over there?" I promise that I kept watching, Guan Zhicheng didn't even take a step out of the door, even the gate of the courtyard kept closed. ”
Li Xin touched his chin: "That's weird...... What is it that makes Master Shen's face so ugly......"
Guan Wen patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't guess, Xiaoliu hasn't gone out, so it should have nothing to do with him." ”
Li Xin groaned: "I hope so......"
However, two days later, Li Xin and Guan Wen heard an explosive news.
Brother Yue went to the town and came back to talk about the new things in the town, but he talked about the Shen family and the An family forming a family of children.
“…… I don't know what evil happened, how did you say this happened? On the day of his daughter's wedding, the father lost his life inexplicably...... "Brother Yue and the men around him said: "It is said that the old man of the Shen family tried his best to seal the news that day, so that the marriage was completed smoothly, but in the end, the paper could not hold the fire, and the people of the An family replaced the red silk cloth that night and hung up the white flag, and the big happy word was replaced by the word lay, and I don't know if the fourth master of the Shen family and Miss An entered the cave room......"
Guan Wen heard the news from Guan Wu's mouth, and Li Xin was immediately dumbfounded.
Master Anjia, dead?
