Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 647 Letter

In the back hall, Li Xin opened the letter and read it. After reading it, his face was full of deep thought.

In addition to the usual polite words of congratulations on housewarming, Mrs. Shen also wrote some trivial things, as if she wrote them casually, and wrote them wherever she thought of. They didn't have much real meaning, and Li Xin didn't care Only two of those things.

But this attitude made Li Xin a little suspicious.

It stands to reason that according to Mrs. Shen's temperament, she would not write such insignificant things in the letter.

"Ma'am, the big kitchen asks if fresh fruit will be served." Qingya walked over softly and asked in a low voice.

Li Xin came back to his senses, nodded his head and said: "Seeing that the guests are almost finished eating, let's put the fresh fruit up."

Qing Ya responded and ordered, Li Xin folded the letter and stuffed it back into the envelope.

Now Fourth Master Shen is becoming more and more calm, and he has long lost his previous frivolous appearance.Li Xin couldn't help thinking of Guan Wen's saying that Mrs. Shen Fourth gave birth to a child, and the child died shortly after giving birth, and that child... and Mrs. Shen was sent to the village to recuperate, so she couldn't help but sigh.

Mrs. Shen's letter mentioned two things that caught Li Xin's attention.

One is that the Shen family workshop specializes in women's scented pancreas, scented dew, and skin cleansing products. After several years of operation, they have now been exported to Beijing and China.If the negotiation between the two parties is satisfactory, this will undoubtedly bring the Shen family's business to a higher level.

The second is about the family affairs of the Shen family. Mrs. Shen nagged in her letter that although her four sons were all married, their grandchildren were desolate. Up to now, only the eldest son's eldest grandson was born, that is, Li Xin was born by accident. The rescued Shen Ruixuan is now 12 years old.The other is the son of Second Master Shen.There are only two grandchildren, and it is true that some children are not good.

The former made Li Xin look sideways because the business of the Shen family workshop is closely related to her. It can be said that she led this business at the beginning. If she hadn't withdrawn midway, she might still be a veteran of the Shen family workshop.

The latter made Li Xin look sideways, but it was because Mrs. Shen specifically mentioned it after this incident, saying that her eldest son and daughter-in-law had expired in their term of office and would come home to live for a month before going to Beijing to fill in the vacancies. The family letter said that they planned to meet Li Xin, who had saved their eldest son.

There are only two things Mrs. Shen cares about, one is the Shen family's business, and the other is her own children and grandchildren.

It's like in Li Xin's mind, even if he talked about the trivial matters in the Shen family, he only mentioned the eldest son, second son, and third son, but he didn't mention a word about Fourth Master Shen.

It's hard for fourth master Shen to help Mrs. Shen deliver the letter.

Li Xin sighed, Guo Zi happened to hug the crying Yoyo, Li Xin took Yoyo, undressed and fed her.

The housewarming banquet was held grandly, and under the joint attention of Guan Wen and Li Xin, a plaque of "Guan Zhai" was hung on the main entrance.

As Li Xin's biological mother and Guan Wen's mother-in-law, Mrs. Liu could not close her mouth from ear to ear when she saw this scene. After a quick meal, she came to Li Xin's place, followed by Mrs. Zhang, Shanzi, Xiaodou and Li Ge.

Li Xin's youngest sister, Li Ge, was very talented at a young age. She was introduced as the mother and younger sister of the head of the Guan family.

Li Ge had just learned to walk, and was walking on the ground alone.Mrs. Liu didn't care about her, and let Xiaodou take care of her.

Shan Zi curled his lips, and impatiently rushed to the side and sat down, crossing his legs.After being glared at by Mrs. Zhang, she sat upright, but after a while she lost her shape again.

They were all children, and Li Xin didn't look at them harshly, she praised that Xiaodou knew how to take good care of her little aunt at such a young age, so she let Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zhang sit.

Mrs. Liu looked at Li Xin's back hall, and felt that it was spacious and bright, with a high roof, which Mrs. Liu didn't like.

"You guys are living a good life now, you deserve to live in such a tall house." Mrs. Liu sighed in admiration: "Ah Wen is also capable, and he has only been in the town for so long, and he has set up such a family business .You don’t know, everyone in the village envies me! They say my life is good, and my sons and daughters will be promising.”

Mrs. Liu giggled, Li Ge stopped and tilted his head to look at Mrs. Liu, laughed twice, and ran around again.At this moment, not only Xiaodou was chasing and protecting her, but Guozi also chased after her, for fear that the mistress' sister would trip over her.

Li Xin smiled, knowing Liu's temperament, her mother just likes to show off, which is understandable.

"Mother and sister-in-law are here, is there someone at home to take care of things?" Li Xin asked.

Mrs. Liu replied: "The family also hired a long-term worker. Parents are living a good life at the moment. Don't worry."

Mrs. Zhang also said with a smile: "The work at home is not heavy, except for the worry of looking at those children, everything else is fine."

Shan Zi snorted at the side: "It's hard to come out to play for a while, and you are still talking in this room. If I want to go out, you won't allow..."

"Li Hang!" Mrs. Zhang said with a straight face, "You are studying in the school, and this is how you talk to your husband?"

Shanzi was getting old, and his family members stopped calling him by his nickname, and called him by his first name, Li Hang.

Li Hang snorted, probably because he was afraid of his mother, he didn't dare to refute immediately, lowered his head slightly, and curled his mouth slightly.

Li Xin was watching, but saw Li Hang looking towards her, and blinked at her.

Li Xin was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that he couldn't laugh or cry.

This kid, all the rescuers moved to her place?I don't even think about the days when he came to live in Guan's house, but she was tortured enough, would she be willing to help him?
After all, Li Xin is soft-hearted. Seeing Zhang's anger, he persuaded softly: "Sister-in-law, he is a boy after all, and he is just at an active age. It is also appropriate to let him go out and make more friends. There are many visitors today, maybe he can make friends." How many good friends did you get?"

Li Xin looked at Li Hang again, and said, "Go and play, you can find Yang'er and the others. Yang'er and Xiaokang are always thinking about you."

As if he had received an amnesty order, Li Hang immediately yelled "Thank you, Auntie" without waiting for Mrs. Liu and Ms. Zhang to express their views, and immediately ran towards the door, faster than a rabbit.

Mrs. Zhang stroked her forehead with a headache: "Sister, you can't spoil him like this. He didn't get a mortgage for three days. I have nothing to do with him."

Li Xin thought to himself, Shanzi has always been like this, but luckily the child has no crooked growths or other bad problems, it's just that he's more curious, more playful, and more courageous, so it doesn't matter.

Mrs. Liu also said: "Let him go wild. If the wild boy is not wild, he will not be a talent. Besides, what kind of trouble can he cause in a day like today? He has restrained himself a lot recently."

The mother-in-law has already said so, so naturally Mrs. Zhang can't say much.

A few people talked about the past for a while, and the female relatives came to the back hall one after another.Xing'er, Axiu and others helped greet them, and Li Xin greeted Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zhang, then woke up and greeted them.

After all, she is the matriarch of the family.

After a busy day, Li Xin was exhausted.Counting today's harvest in detail, firstly, I got housewarming gifts from many guests, secondly, I met a lot of relatives and friends, and thirdly, I met a few female relatives who will need to deal with in the future, which can be regarded as preparation in advance.

After sending off the last batch of guests and leaving, the sky gradually darkened.

Whether it was the people brought by Li Xin, the people assigned to help from Guan Wen's shop, or the servants from the former house, they were all really tired.

Things like asking the servants to greet Li Xin can only be arranged tomorrow.

Li Xin asked everyone to wash up, rest and get ready for a good night's sleep. She waited for Yang'er to fall asleep and coaxed Youyou to sleep, and then fetched water for Guan Wen to soak his feet.

When the husband and wife lay down on the bed, the surroundings were already completely quiet.

Guan Wen rubbed his nose. Although he had already rinsed his mouth, the breath from his mouth still smelled of alcohol.

He turned around and smiled at Li Xin, "I'm going to trouble Madam today."

Li Xin glanced at him: "It's true that I've been hanging out with people in the town for a long time, and I'm talking in an official accent."

Guan Wen chuckled, and stretched out his arms to wrap around Li Xin's waist.

Li Xin struggled, but did not, so he could only stare at him, dug out a small piece of paste from the bamboo tube, spread it evenly in the palm of his hand, and spread it evenly on Guan Wen's face.

Guan Wen closed his eyes and sighed, "I told you it was put on by a woman, but you keep asking me to wipe it on my face..."

"The climate is dry in winter, so be careful of chapped skin." Li Xin said softly, "Besides, it doesn't smell. Who smells you?"

"Hmm..." Guan Wen heaved a sigh of relief, and then asked Li Xin, "Is this from the Shen family?"

Li Xin nodded: "Mrs. Shen said that a Beijing businessman came to discuss this matter with her... She wrote to me specifically about this matter. Ah Wen, what do you mean by Mrs. Shen?"

Guan Wen turned around: "Either I want to invite you to cooperate again, or I just mentioned it to you to see what you do."

"You mean, she tested me?"

Guan Wen chuckled, "What's there for her to test you? Didn't you make it clear a long time ago that you have drawn a clear line with Shen's workshop?"

Li Xin thinks about it too.

But then I remembered that after I told Mrs. Shen about this matter, Mrs. Shen would still give her money every month, and she would still tell Mrs. Shen about any ideas she thought of... For a while, I felt that the boundary was not clear. .

Just sighed deeply.

Then asked about another matter: "Fourth Master Shen looks very calm today, has everything in his family been taken care of?"

Guan Wen was silent for a moment, then slowly sat up and faced Li Xin and said, "I told you about Mrs. Shen's birth...you didn't tell anyone else, did you?"

Li Xin immediately shook his head: "If you say you can't say it, of course I won't say it. Besides, if this matter gets out, it's really going to be said that the Shen family's virtue is at a disadvantage... Am I making a big fuss?"

Guan Wen nodded solemnly: "So you must never talk about this in the future."

"I've heard rumors that Fourth Shen's wife had a dystocia and died young after giving birth, and she was sent to a rural village to recuperate due to blood deficiency after childbirth..." Li Xin hesitated and said, "Is this an excuse?"

Guan Wen nodded again: "It's been more than half a year, and no one brought it up again. So we should pretend we don't know about it in the future, and don't touch this topic." After a pause, Guan Wen said: "Fourth Master Shen is still right This matter is very serious, it's just a matter of his inner house, and I don't want to get involved. However, there are faint rumors that Mrs. Shen's fourth wife has blood deficiency after childbirth, and it will be difficult to conceive again in the future. divorced his wife for reasons."
