After wearing the book, I became Shoufu's favorite

Chapter 405
This is the devil, right? !

Madam Cheng's ugly face suddenly became much uglier.

Song Mianmian's words and deeds made her feel like a clown, her eyes were gloomy, and she cursed inwardly: Sure enough, what comes from the country is what comes from the country, something uneducated.

She said coldly, "I can't eat it."

Mrs. Shen cast a reproachful glance at her daughter, then shook her head lightly, her meaning was obvious, please stop irritating her eldest sister-in-law.She still respects her elder sister-in-law very much, but what happened today...

It always makes her feel weird.

Of course, Mrs. Shen subconsciously didn't think about anything bad.

Fortunately, at this time, Wang Mengshu, who had taken a rest after drinking the medicine, woke up. She coughed twice, her pale face became more and more bloodless.

Even the coughing sound was erratic, as if it would disappear at any moment.

"Aunt, aunt..."

Wang Mengshu was helped to sit up by the maid. When she saw Mrs. Cheng, her eyes lit up suddenly, and she quickly restrained herself.

That's right, there are a lot of dramas.

It seemed like he had been wronged so much at the Shen family.

Song Mianmian felt a little speechless, felt aggrieved, and insisted on living in Shen's house, it was not purely sick.

Mrs. Cheng was very distressed, and took her hand, "Shu'er, how do you feel? Is there any discomfort? Why did you faint when you said you were fine? Your body has been well maintained these years..."

Anyway, Mrs. Cheng was the one to speak. Song Mianmian and Mrs. Shen didn't say a word, and they just watched blankly.

Mrs. Shen really didn't know what to say, while Song Mianmian and Yu Wangshu were too lazy to speak.

After a performance, no one appreciated it, and Mrs. Cheng felt a little boring.

Wang Mengshu restrained herself a lot, and Mrs. Tong Cheng said in a soft voice, "Auntie, I'm fine. This time, it was Shu'er who accidentally caused the old illness."

After she said that, Mrs. Cheng couldn't say anything more, she nodded her head slightly, and ignored it.

If it weren't for Wang Mengshu's appearance of fainting at any time, Song Mianmian would have just asked Mrs. Cheng to take her back to Cheng's house!
But no.

Wang Mengshu came well and left half dead. What do other people think of the Shen family, Mrs. Shen and Yu Wangshu?

Mrs. Cheng didn't stay long, she made sure that Wang Mengshu was awake, and seeing that it was getting late, she proposed to leave.

Before leaving, Mrs. Cheng took a meaningful look at Song Mianmian, then turned around and walked out the door of Shen's house.

Mrs. Shen didn't notice it, but Yu Wangshu looked at her sister-in-law worriedly.

Song Mianmian didn't care at all, and smiled indifferently.

She made an agreement with Mrs. Shen that she would go to Cheng's house tomorrow to meet her grandfather and grandmother. Of course, Xie Yuan, as a family member, also needs to go with her.

"You."

Mrs. Shen glared at Song Mianmian reproachfully, "That's your aunt too!"

Song Mianmian blinked innocently, "Mother, I respect my aunt very much."

"..."

Both Mrs. Shen and Yu Wangshu were speechless for a moment.

Mrs. Shen quickly changed the subject, "Have dinner with my mother tonight?" Of course, it would be best to live in Shen's house, but her daughter and son-in-law have just separated for a few months, so she didn't make this 'excessive' request .

"of course."

Song Mianmian nodded affirmatively.

The smile on Mrs. Shen's face became brighter.

It's approaching evening.

Xie Yuan came to Shen's house to pick up his daughter-in-law and had dinner together at Shen's house.

Songyun Court.

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Wang Mengshu sat up weakly, and said to the maid, "Help me up and change my clothes."

The maid froze for a moment before asking softly, "Miss, where are you going?"

The corners of Wang Mengshu's lips turned up slightly, "Go and have dinner with Madam." Her voice was light and expectant.

Since she came to Shen's house, she has eaten with Madam every day.

It's almost become a habit.

The maid was silent for a moment, and did not prepare clothes and jewelry according to the lady's request. Wang Mengshu frowned, seeing that something was wrong with the maid, and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"

"Miss..." the maid said softly, "Madam said, let you rest well, and you don't have to accompany her for dinner today."

There was a long silence in the room.

"Heh, heh..."

Wang Mengshu's laughter was full of sarcasm, "Let me have a good rest?"

"Song Mianmian is back, so I don't need me."

"Miss..." The maid hurriedly explained, "No, Madam is just worried about your health, Madam treats you very well."

The maid looked carefully at her young lady's expression, she couldn't hold back her worry, "Miss, you really need to rest well now, Madam has ordered someone to bring you dinner."

But the only response to her was Wang Mengshu's silence.

At the door of Shen's house, Xie Yuan saw the person he was thinking of just as soon as he got off the carriage. Song Mianmian greeted him with a smile and a clear voice, "Husband, welcome home~"

Her tail tune was raised and her voice was brisk, which made Xie Yuan feel happy.

"Ma'am." He said, "Good afternoon."

This dinner was also considered a family feast, but luckily besides Xie Yuan, Shen Yu was at home. Although Shen Yu was young, she was also a boy.

After dinner, Xie Yuan helped Song Mianmian into the carriage under Mrs. Shen's reluctant gaze. After waving his hand, the carriage disappeared slowly on the avenue in front of Shen's house with the last rays of the setting sun.

Only then did Mrs. Shen look away reluctantly, and said to her daughter-in-law who came out to see her off together: "Go back, it's getting late, go to bed earlier."

Yu Wangshu smiled lightly, "Yes, mother also rests earlier."

Mrs. Shen nodded, and after separating from her daughter-in-law, she walked towards her yard.After walking a few steps, she hesitated and said to Nanny Tang beside her, "Mommy, do you think I should go and see Shu'er?"

Nanny Tang lowered her eyes slightly to hide the displeasure in her eyes, and said softly, "Ma'am, the doctor said Miss Wang needs to rest quietly."

It's been a rough afternoon today.

Of course, she didn't say the second half of the sentence, but the meaning was obvious.

Mrs. Shen nodded immediately, "Then I'll go see Shu'er tomorrow."

……

on the carriage.

Xie Yuan naturally pulled Song Mianmian into his arms, and then asked with concern: "Madam has something on her mind."

Song Mianmian blinked, "Is it so obvious?"

"Like a firefly in the dark."

"..." Xie Yuan's metaphor made Song Mianmian helpless and at the same time dumbfounded, well, this can be said to be very obvious.

"Husband, you know, I have an extra grandfather and grandmother."

Xie Yuan nodded, "Mr. Cheng is transferred back to Beijing. His official position has not yet been determined, but His Majesty intends to promote him." He was referring to Mr. Cheng as Song Mianmian's uncle.

"Mr. Cheng's family has just reached the weak crown, and he is already a Juren. He failed the exam last year, but his knowledge is extraordinary. After two years, he will pass the high school exam."

Song Mianmian looked at Xie Yuan in surprise, "Husband, you actually know so much?"

Xie Yuan said yes, "It's a matter of husband's duty."

He continued: "Grandfather Cheng Lao has learned all over the past and present. He is a senior who is admired by today's literati, and he has peaches and plums all over the world."

To put it simply, although the Cheng family's official position is not high, their social influence is very high.

Song Mianmian even applauded Xie Yuan on the spot, "That's amazing, husband." She didn't even know about the existence of the Cheng family before, and only heard about it yesterday.

Madam Shen did mention something to her today, but she didn't say too much. Xie Yuan explained the situation of the Cheng family clearly in just a few words.

Song Mianmian looked at Xie Yuan expectantly, her eyes suddenly said: Continue.

Xie Yuan pinched the little thing's nose helplessly, and the deep voice continued to sound, "Old Cheng and Master Cheng are honest and upright, with noble character, and they are models of literati."

Song Mianmian could tell that Xie Yuan was very serious, even with respect in his tone.

This is rare.

Song Mianmian raised her eyebrows in surprise, and subconsciously recognized the Cheng family's character in her heart. She believed in her husband's vision.

"The same is true for Mr. Cheng." Xie Yuan simply mentioned a sentence, then changed the subject: "Did you meet Mrs. Cheng at the Shen family today?"

"It's my aunt." Song Mianmian was very helpless, and complained softly, "This aunt is very strange, her niece of the first line, she only wants someone to be a concubine for her brother, is she crazy?"

It's just her and her husband, she doesn't need it and doesn't hide it.

Xie Yuan lowered his eyes, "My aunt's surname is Wang, she is from the same family as the noble concubine, and she has not yet issued five clothes."

Song Mianmian was stunned.

Although in modern times, this kind of blood relationship is far away, but this is ancient times, and the clan is the most important thing.

She frowned, and lowered her voice subconsciously, "The second prince of the Cheng family is in line?" The second prince is the son of the noble concubine Wang.

Although she has never experienced it, she also knows that it is quite dangerous to stand in line for such a thing as seizing the heir.

Xie Yuan shook his head, "The Cheng family does not, but our aunt hopes that both the Cheng family and the Shen family can support His Highness the Second Highness." He thought about it, and explained the matter concisely.

"But there's no need to send Wang Mengshu to your brother as a concubine, right?" She didn't think a concubine could change the Shen family's attitude.

"The Cheng family has a clean and upright family, and Mr. Cheng's attitude represents some literati in the world. He will not easily take sides in this matter." Xie Yuan shook his head, "Mr. Cheng knows the seriousness of this matter."

"But if the Shen family takes in the daughter of the Wang family..." Xie Yuan changed his subject, his voice was a little unclear, "Whether the Shen family expresses their position or not, people will be misunderstood, especially at this time."

"At this time?" Song Mianmian was puzzled.

Xie Yuan nodded. Now His Majesty's body is getting weaker and weaker, and the matter of seizing the heir is also entering a hot stage.The Shen family fought in the north again, holding military power.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Song Mianmian seriously, "This matter is not as simple as it appears, Mianmian."

Song Mianmian nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, husband, I'll take care of this matter!"

After she finished speaking, she came back to her senses and asked a little strangely, "Then why did the Cheng family condone aunt's behavior?"

That's right, in her opinion it is connivance.

Mrs. Cheng sent Wang Mengshu to the Shen family and made such a request, but no one in the Cheng family made any comments.

Xie Yuan frowned slightly, thought for a moment, "Maybe, the Cheng family doesn't know either."

"Perhaps what my aunt told the Cheng family was that the mother-in-law insisted on keeping Ms. Wang here?"

Xie Yuan's speculation made Song Mianmian even more angry, her cheeks puffed up, "It's too much."

Xie Yuan leaned over, pecked her pouty red lips, and coaxed in a low voice, "It's okay, I'll find out tomorrow."
