Madam is a dandy, Mr. Shen loves her so much

Chapter 155 You can’t compete with Lin Yinian

New Year's Day, the first day of the New Year.

The Shen residence was quiet. Because of the holiday, only a few servants got up early to clean the house today.

The courtyard where Shen Jiyuan and Cen Xuan lived was very quiet. Occasionally, sparrows could be seen falling from the rafters to forage in the snow.

On the huge bed in the house, the bed curtains were hung from the middle on both sides.

The girl nestled in the quilt had her eyes closed tightly, and her arms draped outside the quilt were slender and white. If you look carefully, you can see the intricate kiss marks on them.

Cen Xuan moved when the alarm rang.

After rolling around on the bed, she opened her eyes. The person who was supposed to sleep next to her had gotten up and disappeared without knowing it.

According to Jianghuai’s New Year customs, we need to get up early this morning to pay New Year greetings to our elders.

But the old lady also said last night that the old man needs to rest.

"Miss Cen."

Women are inherently sensitive during pregnancy, and their moods fluctuate greatly after hormone changes in the body, so depression and the like are very common.

The whole person looked a little dull, and his complexion was not very good.

She stood there and stared for a while.

Shen Zhiyue looked up and saw Jiang Siyu who was still sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

At this time, the husband's company is particularly important.

"Miss Cen, let's come together."

In the past two days, he slept until three o'clock in the morning every day. Why did he get up so early today on New Year's Day and go out?

Shen Zhiyue walked in front of Cen Xuan and Zhan Ling. On the way to the pavilion together, Zhan Ling started talking to Cen Xuan.

Logically speaking, there will be no work today.

"What are you doing there, sister-in-law?"

"Don't worry, Miss Cen, I won't argue with you anymore. I know that Third Brother doesn't have me in his heart. If I continue to mess around, it will only make him hate me even more."

How could she be allowed to sit in the pavilion in the middle of the lake in such a cold weather, with no one around her?

The aunt who took care of her sighed. She had also taken care of many pregnant women.

There were too many young people like them in the morning, so the old lady asked them not to go there in the morning.

If it weren't for Jiang Siyu's pregnancy, she would even suspect that the two of them were strangers.

Just today, Mrs. Shen's mood was clearly wrong.

"I haven't seen Miss Cen for a long time, and I feel like I'm a world away."

"Miss Zhan looks even more beautiful. I heard that you are engaged."

When she said this, Cen Xuan did not hear her relief.

"Don't get me wrong, Miss Cen. I'm not afraid of you, but I feel like there is absolutely no hope this time."

They are not in a relationship where they can chat.

I heard that Zhan Ling was engaged, and she was looking for a well-matched family.
She wore a red coat today, and she looked brighter.

Just a few steps out of the yard, Cen Xuan saw Jiang Siyu standing in the Huxin Pavilion from a distance.

Zhan Ling smiled and nodded, "I didn't expect that this matter would reach Miss Cen's ears. She is only engaged and not married yet."

The two of them spoke like this, and Cen Xuan nodded in agreement.

"Sister-in-law three, if you feel bored with nothing to do, come and chat with us." Shen Zhiyue looked at Cen Xuan and invited.

Li He is not here either, he must have taken Li He out.

Cen Xuan shook his head, "I don't know."

Cen Xuan did not answer her words. The previous few interactions between the two were not very pleasant.

I didn’t see him accompanying me well either.

Cen Xuan felt that it had been a long time since she last saw Zhan Ling.

Zhan Ling's voice came.

But after this period of care, the relationship between the eldest young master of the Shen family and his wife did not look like a couple at all.

The aunt who was following her and taking care of her reminded her a few times, but she remained indifferent.

On the contrary, I heard a bit of schadenfreude.

After Cen Xuan changed her clothes, she planned to go to the east yard to see if Shen Jiyuan had gone to see the old man.

Jiang Siyu's expression seemed a little wrong, and he kept staring at the lake in a daze.

After Cen Xuan got up, she looked around and asked no one who knew where Shen Jiyuan had gone.

Cen Xuan turned around and saw Zhan Ling walking over with Shen Zhiyue.

During this period, everyone was staring at Jiang Siyu's belly, especially Tang Rong, who was staring at it with eyes.

Cen Xuan looked at her and raised her eyebrows. Did she say that?

When did she create this illusion?

"I used to think that the third brother just needed someone who could occupy the position of his wife, and it didn't matter who he was. But now that the person in his heart is back, I never thought I could compete with him for the person he loves most."

As Zhan Ling spoke, she looked at Cen Xuan with a bit of sneer in her eyes.

Shen Zhiyue walked in front, listening to the words of the two people without any intention of responding.

"What do you mean Miss Zhan told me this?"

Cen Xuan didn't think Zhan Ling would say anything nice or have any good impressions of her.

"Before the third brother returned to China, Lin Yinian was not with him. I know that no matter who he marries, he will be the same in his heart, except Lin Yinian, so I think I can compete with you, but I know in my heart , I can’t compete with Lin Yinian, so I quit.”

Cen Xuan looked at her after listening to her words.

After hearing this, Shen Zhiyue also looked back at the two of them.

"She was able to soak in the cold sea water all night to save the third brother. I can't compare to her in this aspect alone."

This made Cen Xuan very curious.

In Shen Jiyuan's narration, Lin Yinian saved his life, but there was no mention of soaking in sea water.

"Looking at you, you don't know." Zhan Ling seemed to know something very important, and the smile on her face became a little more proud.

"She and Zhiyue are good friends, so I was lucky enough to hear some details. When I first discovered the third brother, he was too far away from the coast. He was already close to dehydration. Lin Yinian dressed him up very promptly. Swimming back and forth for four hours in a wetsuit to bring him water and food.”

If Lin Yinian hadn't sent water and food, the person would have died before help arrived.

"So, how could I be better than Lin Yinian, who saved his life, so I gave up."

Lin Yinian said and glanced at Shen Zhiyue in front of him.

"Zhiyue also knows these things. Of course, it is precisely because Lin Yinian saved her with her life that grandma looks at her differently."

Mrs. Shen would be willing to invite Lin Yinian to have dinner with her when she returns to China.

It was also because she had saved her grandson.

The Shen family knows how to repay their kindness, these are the old lady's original words.

"Don't believe it?" Zhan Ling looked at Cen Xuan and shouted after Shen Zhiyue, "Zhiyue can prove that this is true."

Shen Zhiyue turned around and said, "Yes."

Cen Xuan herself didn't believe it when she said she had no doubts at all.

The details from Zhan Ling and Shen Zhiyue are somewhat different from Shen Jiyuan's.

Shen Jiyuan did not mention this part of the process.

The three of them quickly walked to the pavilion in the middle of the lake. It was winter and the lake had already frozen.

The wind blew bitingly cold.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here alone?" Shen Zhiyue was the first to call.

When the aunt who was following them saw the three of them, it was like seeing a savior. "Happy New Year, cousin." Zhan Ling smiled and stepped forward to hug Jiang Siyu.

She was obviously still a little stunned. Her eyes fell on Cen Xuan and she smiled with a smile.

"You're here, happy new year."

Jiang Siyu spoke in a gentle tone, but it sounded like she was worried about something.

"It's a bit annoying for you to sit alone. The four of us just sit at the table, how about playing cards." Shen Zhiyue suggested.

The aunt on the side hurriedly agreed, "Yes, the wind is so strong here, we should go inside."

As long as you don't stay here and blow the wind, you can do whatever you want.

Otherwise, if a pregnant person becomes ill, it will be difficult to take care of her, and the pregnant woman herself will be extremely uncomfortable.

Besides, she could tell that Jiang Siyu might have some mental problem.

Talking to more people will help her feel better, which is the best.

"Then let's go back first." Jiang Siyu turned around minding his own business.

She is now three months pregnant. She is already slender, so she can't even tell she is pregnant when wearing thick clothes.

They all arrived at the old lady's yard and saw several girls coming over. The old lady seemed very happy.

Ask the servants to prepare fruits and snacks for them.

Then the old lady seemed to have remembered something and spoke to Shen Zhiyue.

"Zhiyue, give Miss Lin a call. She sent someone some gifts years ago, but I haven't been able to thank her yet. I've also prepared a gift for you to send to her if you have time."

The old lady said and handed an orange to Cen Xuan, "Try it, this orange is really sweet."

"Thank you, grandma." Cen Xuan responded, took the orange and began to peel it.

Zhan Ling on the side heard this and leaned over with a smile.

"If you don't take advantage of this opportunity, Zhiyue, ask Miss Lin if she would like to come over. It would be much more lively if we all play together. She should also be celebrating the New Year in Jianghuai."

The old lady looked at Cen Xuan, "On New Year's Day, we only visit relatives and friends, but we don't have people come to our door."

Of course Cen Xuan knew that the old lady meant this for her own sake, and she smiled at the old lady.

"She's not free. She said she had important guests this morning, but she hasn't replied to my message for almost half an hour."

Shen Zhiyue spoke while playing mahjong.

"Ms. Lin has just returned to China. She probably doesn't have any good friends except you. Who would go to her on the morning of New Year's Day?"

Zhan Ling said as she looked through her phone, as if she saw something, she smiled and turned off the screen.

The next second, Cen Xuan received a message on her phone.

She opened it and there was a picture.

The picture is a selfie of Lin Yinian. She is wearing a red sweater and holding a lantern to the camera with a bright smile.

The figure sitting on the sofa in the living room was reflected on the glass behind her.

As for that figure, even if the appearance is blurry, people like them can distinguish it.

Of course Cen Xuan can also see it.

That was Shen Jiyuan.

So this man disappeared early in the morning and went to see Lin Yinian.

Lin Yinian even took a photo and posted it on WeChat Moments.

"What are you thinking about? You're cheating."

The old lady reminded behind Cen Xuan while holding tea.

Zhan Ling looked at her and her smile became more and more proud.

How she was sad at first, now Cen Xuan has to remember it one by one.

Marrying Shen Jiyuan is not a skill, but being able to win his heart is.

Life-saving grace, this is a hurdle that many men cannot overcome.

Beauty saves hero.

Shen Jiyuan and Lin Yinian are not so easy to separate.

Jiang Siyu didn't know what happened, but he glanced at Cen Xuan several times during the card game.

From morning to noon, it ended with Cen Xuan winning a drawer full of money.

Shen Zhiyue stretched and stood up with her bag.

"Zhiyue and I have to go out first." Zhan Ling said and looked at Cen Xuan with a look of concern on her face. "We have to have a good chat with Third Brother later. Stop quarreling."

"You are so concerned about our situation, otherwise you would stay in our yard for two days." Cen Xuan looked at her and asked.

Zhan Ling was stunned. In front of the old lady, of course she couldn't say anything too extreme.

"No need for this."

Cen Xuan had no intention of giving in to her.

"Miss Zhan, don't pay so much attention to other people's husbands, and don't care too much about other people's married lives. It's not a good thing for you."

Cen Xuan pressed her temple and replied.

This was said without hesitation.

Zhan Ling was stunned. She thought that Cen Xuan would at least be restrained in front of the old lady.

The old lady on the side was still drinking tea as calm as ever, without even looking at the people here.

Zhan Ling couldn't argue, so she could only pick up her handbag and leave in despair.

"These are all children's tricks. You will be tired if you see everything." The old lady said to Cen Xuan.

"Don't worry about small things." Cen Xuan said to the old lady.

The old lady looked at her and said, "It really doesn't matter?"

Cen Xuan nodded affirmatively, "It doesn't matter."

She's not going to make a fuss over such a photo.

Before seeing substantial evidence, she was not the one who was led by the nose to move forward.

The old lady nodded with satisfaction.

Cen Xuan knows when to do something, and she may be unreasonable sometimes.

But not before big things happen.

Moreover, this child is often more rational than emotional, making him the most suitable wife.

When leaving the old lady's yard, Jiang Siyu walked beside Cen Xuan.

She didn't say a word to Cen Xuan all afternoon.

She looked a little groggy walking next to Cen Xuan. She had no energy at all and her walking was a little unsteady.

When she almost walked into the flower bed next to her, Cen Xuan reached out and pulled her back.

"Be careful, you may fall down soon."

No matter how hard this person walked on a flat road, he almost rushed into the flower bed.

"You don't have to worry about it." Jiang Siyu shook her hand away.

Cen Xuan spread her hands and said, "I don't really want to care about you."

Jiang Siyu looked at her with thorny eyes as if he was angry about something.

"Mind your own business. Everyone knows about Shen Jiyuan and Lin Yinian. Don't lose your wife and lose your troops when the time comes. Your husband will be robbed and make people laugh."

After Jiang Siyu finished speaking, he turned around and walked away quickly.

Cen Xuan stood there and looked at her back.

"Why can anyone use words to hurt me today?" She said, turning around and moving her neck, "Shen Jiyuan, I'm not done with you today..."
