Even if the winter wind is gentle, it has a biting chill, Shen Chen'an's body bones are relatively weak, the left and right layers are wrapped in a lot of clothes, the fluffy collar covers half of his face, Song Yu holds the stove and sends it to Shen Chen'an's hands, his hands are much colder than Song Yu's.

Shen Chen'an has been looking forward to the arrival of spring.

But spring did not arrive, and the lord of Yuan'an County arrived first.

Shen Chen'an sat under the window, the dry branches stretched out outside the window, he held the stove and flipped through the book in front of the desk, while Song Yu was lying opposite him, boredly playing with the chess pieces in his hand, there was a chessboard between the two of them, black and white were staggered with each other, looking at the chessboard, it was obvious that white had more advantages.

Song Yu knocked on the sunspot in his hand and muttered angrily, "You should let me have five sons." ”

"Then you can't put too much water, it seems that my wife is too weak. Shen Chen'an's face was gentle.

Outside the window, the two little guys walked side by side, saying something in their mouths, Song Yu's mind was not on the chessboard, and she was immediately attracted by the two of them, her ears were sharp, and she instantly heard the words "Lord of Yuan'an".

Song Yu immediately put down the chess pieces, sat up straight and said, "Xianggong, your old friend is here." ”

Shen Chen'an listened to the three words of good old looks, and felt uncomfortable, so he couldn't help frowning and said, "How can I ever be good." ”

"I'm wrong, it's the Lord of Yuan'an who is here. Song Yu walked up to him and grabbed his arm and said, "Let's go see what she is doing." ”

Shen Chen'an was unmoved: "I don't want to see it." ”

"Don't let her see us, let's take a sneak look. "Actually, I see that the lord of Yuan'an is fake, mainly because he wants to escape from this game of chess.

The ghost knows why Shen Chen'an suddenly wants to teach her to play chess, and now is a perfect opportunity to escape from the chessboard.

Shen Chen couldn't grind her, so she had to get up with her, and the two sneaked outside the hall and listened secretly.

At first, there was no sound in the house, Shen's mother just sat there with an indifferent face, I don't know if it was intentional or forgot, there was no stove in the hall, only Shen's mother was holding one in her arms, and the room was so cold that people couldn't help but shiver.

The county lord refilled a cup of hot tea and didn't drink it in his hand, and his nose was red from the cold.

"Aunt Shen. Yuan An shouted.

"The county lord said with a smile, my aunt can afford it, so let's call me Mrs. Shen. Mother Shen's tone didn't hear anything wrong, but she was a little rusty.

Yuan An smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "Mrs. Shen is not strange, Yuan An is bothering today, when she was a child, Mrs. Shen treated Yuan An well, and Yuan An also remembered that she had not been in contact for many years, and today she still hopes that Mrs. Shen will forgive her sins." ”

"Where, the county lord can come to our Shen family, it is already full of brilliance, and there is a dare to blame it. ”

Although Shen's mother was polite, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Shen's mother didn't like her, and the county lord of Yuan'an himself could feel it, but he didn't show it, and he didn't know what An's thoughts were.

Shen Chen An sat expressionlessly in the corner of the wall and leaned against the wall, looking at the sky in the distance.

Song Yu listened attentively.

The county lord of Yuan'an glanced at the little guy who came with her, and the little guy immediately came over with a bunch of things.

The lord of Yuan'an said: "Mrs. Shen, these are some thin gifts prepared by Yuan'an, Yuan'an was ignorant in the early years, which hurt the heart of the Shen family, and his father often blamed, and his mother was even more depressed, and he lingered on the sickbed all year round. ”

Mother Shen looked at the pile of things, silent, not accepting or pushing.

When Song Yu was studying Shen's mother's expression, he only heard Yun Guo's loud voice shouting, "Third Young Master and Third Lady, what are you doing squatting here?"

Mother Shen and Lord Yuan'an in the house were immediately attracted by the sound.

Mother Shen just took advantage of this excuse to change the topic, she looked at Afu beside her and said, "Go and take a look outside." ”

Afu came out immediately, and Song Yu who had just stood up from the ground almost collided, Afu quickly took a few steps back, Song Yu tilted his head to look at Afu, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, Afu saw her smile, and immediately lowered her head.

"Madam, it's the third lady and the third young master sitting here. ”

"What do you do when you sit outside, come in and sit. ”

Shen's mother spoke, Shen Chen'an and Song Yu naturally couldn't eavesdrop outside anymore, Song Yu made a threatening grimace at Yun Guo before entering the door, and Yun Guo was so frightened that he trembled.

After the two came in, the county lord of Yuan'an looked at Shen Chen'an.

Shen Chen'an looked better than the last time they met.

Song Yu saluted the county lord of Yuan'an and said, "Mother, I just heard that the county lord of Yuan'an is here, so I was curious to pull Xianggong over to take a look." ”

Hearing Song Yu's voice, Yuan An looked at her: "What do I have to see, haven't we met!"

Mother Shen was a little surprised when she heard this: "What's the matter with Ah Yu?"

"Mother, this is a matter of the past year, when I was out playing with my father-in-law, I accidentally bumped into it, and I happened to see the county lord riding a horse on the street. ”

Riding a horse to commit murder? When the county lord of Yuan'an heard this word, his face couldn't help twitching, if he had been in the Pingjiang Palace, he would have hung Song Yu on a tree and beaten him, but now in the Shen family, she had to restrain herself.

The third lady said that this was a bit too much. Although Yuan An's tone was calm, his expression was obviously wrong.

"Oh, it's too much, that child was rescued, the county lord is an attempt, it's not a problem, after all, the king of Pingjiang is there, who dares to take the county lord of Yuan'an. Song Yu didn't care about the face of the county lord of Yuan'an and the king of Pingjiang at all.

The county lord of Yuan'an's face was a little ugly, but it was Shen's mother, and there was a smile in the corner of her eyes.

Song Yu walked to the side of the county lord of Yuan'an, looked at things and said, "What is this?"

I have to say that the county lord of Yuan'an is also a royal person, and his emotional control is more powerful than ordinary people, so he will immediately show a very decent smile: "Third lady, this is some small gifts prepared by Yuan'an, to honor Mrs. Shen and Lord Shen." ”

"Bo Li!" Song Yu withdrew his hand with some disgust, "It is natural for the younger generation to respect the elders, but if filial piety only gives a small gift, it is better to take it back." ”

The face of the county lord of Yuan'an was even more ugly.

Shen Chen'an stood aside and pursed his lips, as if he wanted to laugh, but he endured it, it was the first time he had seen the county lord of Yuan'an so deflated.

But in an instant, the county lord of Yuan'an returned to his usual color and said: "The third lady said that she laughed, I thought that the third lady's maiden family had never taught, the so-called gift giving a thin gift, just a polite statement, the gift is a thick preparation, if you say that you give a generous gift, I am afraid that the giver is suspected of being a trick, and the recipient is afraid that the gift is too expensive and does not dare to accept it." ”

This is saying that Song Yu has no tutor, and by the way, she also greeted her parents, Song Yu has no father and no mother, so she naturally doesn't care, but Shen Chen'an is a little uncomfortable to listen to.

Shen Chen'an stepped forward and said, "There seems to be something wrong with the Lord of Yuan'an's words. ”

"What's wrong?" Yuan An was happy to talk to him, and even his tone softened a lot.

"My wife is simple and frank, the expensive will not be said to be cheap, and vice versa, which shows that my wife's family education is very good, but it is the county lord you, the noble and the low are reversed, which inevitably makes people wonder whether the county lord is sincere or false. "Having said that, the county lord's face was already extremely ugly, but how could Shen Chen'an stop there.

He glanced at Song Yu and said: "But the county lord is for my father and mother, we don't need to say much, but the Pingjiang Royal Mansion and the Shen family have not been in contact for many years, the county lord today to send a 'thin gift' will inevitably make outsiders suspicious, when the rumors are spreading, my Shen family is nothing, but for a county lord who has not been out of the cabinet, the impact is not good, this thin gift our Shen family does not dare to accept it, the county lord should take it back." ”

Fools can see that the Shen family dislikes the county lord of Yuan'an, and even Shen Chen'an, who is gentle and doesn't say much on weekdays, refutes the county lord of Yuan'an for Song Yu because of the county lord's words today, which shows how unpopular the county lord of Yuan'an is.

The unhappiness of the county lord of Yuan'an was directly on his face, but he didn't pretend to be gentle.

"You will say one by one, I came to pay homage today, but I came to the wrong place, I am also the county lord of the Pingjiang Palace, and I am the county lord of the king's own title, and I am so humiliated today, is he not afraid that Lord Shen will suffer in the officialdom?"

Song Yu nodded when he heard this: "This is a problem. ”

Hearing this, the county lord of Yuan'an smiled, with contempt in his eyes: "I know I'm afraid." ”

"But you said it, our Shen family has heard it, if someone attacks his father, I'm afraid that even if it is not the king of Pingjiang, he will become the king of Pingjiang, but it doesn't matter if our Shen family is in trouble, but the king of Pingjiang uses his power for personal gain, I don't know what the king will think when he learns it." Song Yu said innocently.

The tendons on the top of the main protagonist's head in Yuan'an County kept beating, and his heart was beating faster and his hands and feet were trembling.

"What a sharp mouth, you, a woman who ran out of the barren mountains and mountains, forget about the Shen family today, but you, if I don't tear your mouth, my Yuan'an's name will be written upside down. ”

Saying that, the county lord of Yuan'an rushed towards Song Yu.

Seeing this, Shen Chen'an immediately protected Song Yu behind him, and after Yuan An saw Shen Chen'an, he was stunned for a moment, and then shouted regardless of his image: "Shen Yuanxi, don't you like me, why do you want to protect her." ”

"I'm afraid the county lord has misunderstood, since the county lord's sick man, Shen Yuanxi, who liked the county lord at the beginning, has died, and now I am not protecting others, but my wife. Everyone was stunned when the words fell, including Song Yu.

Shen Chenan has lived for more than 20 years, and he has never said what he likes, let alone what he cares about, but now he protects Song Yu like this, even Shen's mother is full of emotion in her heart.

Song Yu felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, Shen Chen'an treated her as his wife and treated her sincerely, but she just wanted the wind god to come back, as for what would happen to Shen Chen'an, she didn't think about it, what she always remembered was the wind god, not the mortal Shen Chen'an.

"Alright, alright. Shen's mother watched the play for a long time, and finally spoke, "The county lord's two children are used to being arrogant by me, and they are open-mouthed, I will punish them in private, and the county lord is not angry and loses his body, I will not accept these gifts, if you have to send them, I can only transfer them to your mother in my name." ”

She said something to Afu again, and then Afu left: "My old body is also a little tired, coincidentally, today, I made some plum blossom rice cakes, your mother loves to eat what I made, today the county lord is here, but you can bring some back to the princess, talk about a little bit of my heart, I hope she is healthy as soon as possible." ”

Not long after, Afu came over with the box and sent it to the county lord of Yuan'an.

When the county lord of Yuan'an saw this dim sum box, he opened the lid and inside was the familiar plum blossom rice cake, which she often ate when she was a child, and she also liked to eat it the most, and later she also ate many plum blossom rice cakes, but no one could make the taste of Shen's mother.

The county lord of Yuan'an took the dim sum and was astringent, although she didn't like Song Yu, but she still respected Shen's mother, she said: "Yuan'an thanked Mrs. Shen for her mother." ”

"And. Mother Shen said.

Yuan An looked at Shen Mu with some doubts.

"Although you and Chen An have been married since childhood, and the marriage book is still there, but the two families have long been invalidated by default, and the county lord of Yuan'an no longer has to worry about the marriage, Chen An already has a wife, and he will never remarry his wife. ”

Mother Shen is also an understanding person.

She was still a little puzzled when the county lord of Yuan'an came this time, but when she heard that the county lord of Yuan'an had met with their couple some time ago, and heard her shouting Shen Chen'an's words behind her, she probably guessed that the gift was fake, and most of them regretted the marriage at the beginning, and wanted to make up for it, otherwise how could she, a proud county lord, bend down here alone to be angry.

I'm afraid that if she came this time, neither the king of Pingjiang nor the princess would know about it.

Shen's mother's last words, I am afraid that her last hope will be extinguished.

What about the county lord, what about the daughter of the king of Pingjiang, what about the Shen family who he didn't want to marry, even if he squeezed his head, he couldn't squeeze in.
