Chapter 152 How could it be such a coincidence?
Madam Xie kept holding onto Xie Yuan's hand all the way, walked across the yard, and walked into the house.

The servants in the house happily followed along, looking at Xie Yuan who had reunited after a long absence with strange and excited eyes.

They have all been troubled by Xie Yuan before, but people are so strange. When Xie Yuan was around, they felt exhausted every day and wished she wasn't there.

But one day, she was really gone all of a sudden.Everyone felt that the house was missing an important person, and suddenly it seemed empty, and the silence was uncomfortable...

And because of the gloomy clouds of the Xie family and his wife, since Xie Yuan left home, it is true that there has been nothing particularly happy.

Including when the concubine at home gave birth to a young man.

Because of the embarrassing status of the concubine, I was afraid of being rejected, and the people below were afraid of revealing something, which would make Mrs. Xie unhappy, and when facing Mrs. Xie's poor spirits, it made everyone trembling and uncomfortable.

Isn't this... a scene that makes people tremble and bewildered, isn't it coming?
The concubine Yinhuan hugged a two-year-old boy, and hurriedly greeted him from inside.

Mrs. Xie led Xie Yuan, and the large group of people behind them all stopped and looked at them.

Seeing that the atmosphere on the opposite side suddenly became so quiet from lively and festive, Yinhuan became even more flustered, and almost didn't even know how to take a step.

She walked over tremblingly, glanced at Xie Yuan with a stern expression, then at Mrs. Xie, put down the child in her arms, and said cautiously:

"Ma'am... I thought, it's the etiquette to let Xiaoguang greet my sister anyway, so I rushed here with him in my arms. If... bother you talking, I will take him away."

Madam Xie suddenly looked at Xie Yuan nervously, observing her expression carefully.Seeing that she was looking at the child coldly with Danfeng eyes down, not knowing what she was thinking, she panicked even more.

Madam Xie was afraid that she would be unhappy, so she asked in an almost flattering tone: "A Yuan, this is your concubine brother. You... what are you thinking, can you tell mother?"

Xie Yuan was not happy, a younger brother...

At the beginning, all father and mother wanted was a son, someone who was born with a handle on his head, not her.

Now seeing that there is really such a person in front of her, seeing that he doesn't have to do anything, he was born to meet everyone's expectations, and is loved and welcomed by everyone, can she be happy?

Xie Yuan looked at the little boy who was looking up at her with ignorant black and white eyes, and jealousy and hatred faintly arose in his heart.

Although reason told her that this should not be the case, she couldn't help it.

It was Madam Xie's voice that pulled her out of such emotions...

When did my mother speak to her so humblely before?
Mrs. Xie's timidity and humbleness stung her heart, making her so sad that she didn't know what to do.

She would rather her mother be the same as before, teach her and restrain her... At least, knowing that her body and spirit are good.

Xie Yuan looked at Mrs. Xie and smiled softly, and said:

"I knew mother...Master has told me. I don't have any ideas. Isn't this a good thing?"

When Mrs. Xie heard this, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Yinhuan: "Take it down first, let us mothers talk for a while."

The little concubine Yinhuan felt uneasy for a long time, upon hearing this, she immediately picked up the child again, turned around and left quickly.

When they arrived in the room, the two sat down. Mrs. Xie took her hand, looked at her daughter carefully for a while, and said with tears:

"It's dark, and it's thin, how much suffering it has suffered outside..."

Xie Yuan's lips moved, but in the end he just smiled and didn't speak.

Mrs. Xie felt uneasy, and hurriedly explained: "A Yuan... Mother will not be difficult for you in the future, you can do whatever you want, even if you always think that you are a man and a woman, you don't care anymore, mother only hopes that you can live and be able to live. Let mother see, don't run away suddenly, you can't find it everywhere..."

As she spoke, she began to cry again.

Xie Yuan was heartbroken, tears fell uncontrollably, she got up directly, took two steps back, knelt down politely and solemnly, kowtowed to Madam Xie, buried her head and said:
"Mother... It's the child who is unfilial, which makes you sad."

Mrs. Xie laughed as she cried, reached out and grabbed Xie Yuan's wrist to get her up, and said, "Isn't it all over? Mother is so happy now, thank God for letting my A Yuan come back safely." .”

The smile on Mrs. Xie's face gradually faded, and she asked nervously again: "You...you come back this time, do you still want to leave?"

Xie Yuan pursed his lips guiltily, and said:

"I transferred my mother from the south. The place where the military camp is stationed is very close to here. I will come back to see you from time to time."

Mrs. Xie's face turned pale when she saw it, but she quickly pulled herself together and said with a forced smile:

"Okay...that's good."

There was an awkward silence.

Because both of them knew in their hearts that this was not what Madam Xie had in mind, she still hoped that Xie Yuan would stay at home safely with her.

And she also knew that Xie Yuan would not be willing to do this.

Even if the family relationship is deep, but the appeal is opposite, what can be done except to put aside the conflict and not mention it?

At this moment, a servant girl's joyful voice came from outside the door:

"This is really a double happiness. It's a coincidence! Shen Langjun...how could it be such a coincidence? Didn't you really discuss it and come back together?"

Xie Yuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard that, and he quickly looked towards the door.

The outside of the bamboo curtain was still empty, only to hear a young man with a strange clear voice, but with a familiar well-behaved tone, said with a smile:

"Sister, I think you knew I wanted to see her, so you deliberately teased me. How could there be such a coincidence that she came back as soon as I came back?"

"What did I lie to you for? Go in and see for yourself!" the servant girl explained anxiously.

At this time, the shadow of a person finally appeared outside the curtain.A young man in a moon-white Confucian robe stood vaguely outside the bamboo curtain, with a dignified demeanor, raised his arms in a respectful salute, bowed his head and said:
"Master, Liuzhen is back to see you."

Xie Yuan stood up involuntarily, looked at the people outside the door through the bamboo curtain, and was stunned.

Mrs. Xie also froze there, turned her head to look at her mother-in-law who was serving her, and asked with confused eyes: "Am I dreaming again?...Pinch me, let me see if it hurts."

The old woman took care of Mrs. Xie since she was a child, and she is usually very close.

In fact, she was also stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted, anxious and happy, and obediently pinched Mrs. Xie's arm, and said:

"Ma'am! Is it true or not a dream, please let Mr. Shen come in!"
