A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 579
Meng Yan and Xia Shi shared the same carriage, and Xia Shi held Meng Yan's hand tightly all the time.

On the way back, the carriage was bumped and swayed a little, Xia Shi also showed some nervousness and uneasiness on his face, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

Meng Yan knew her very well, knew what she was thinking, and said, "Mother is still thinking about what the monk said just now?"

Xia Shi said: "What did you pull me to do just now, I should go and ask to understand."

Meng Yan leaned against the wall of the car with a leisurely smile, and said, "What's the point of asking, even if you ask him, he can't explain it to you clearly. The way I'm going to go in the future, what happened to me, he If you're not a god, how could you know? Besides, what can those two exclamations mean?"

She patted Xia Shi's hand, and said: "My life is determined by myself, not by others. Mother, don't think about it, I am not very good now."

Xia's brows finally loosened a little because of her words.

Meng Yan glanced at her and said, "If you already have bad expectations about things that haven't happened in the future, then you will really come here for whatever you are afraid of. So, people, don't worry about it."

Upon hearing this, the Xia family immediately said: "Okay, okay, I don't want to, I don't want to think about anything. Mother doesn't want to be rich and powerful, but only hopes that you will be safe and happy in the future, and that's enough."

Back at the palace, as soon as they entered the house, Xia and the mother hadn't thought about the umbrella yet, so Meng Yan asked the housekeeper directly: "I heard that my mother left the umbrella by the door when she went out, did you see it? "

The housekeeper said: "Didn't you take it with you? I saw it in the carriage with my own eyes."

So before Xia Shi had time to vent to the housekeeper, he easily revealed his secrets.

Meng Yan looked at Xia Shi, smiled and said: "Mother, let's go back to the courtyard and talk slowly."

Xia Shi also smiled awkwardly, and followed Meng Yan back to the yard.

Earlier, Meng Yan found out that the Xia family had something to hide from her in Huguo Temple, but now that she is at home, how can she not clarify the matter.

After several times of questioning, Xia finally explained that her umbrella was given away.

While observing her expression, Meng Yan asked, "Who did you give it to? A man or a woman?"

Xia Shi twisted the handkerchief and said, "Female."

Seeing her mother's guilty conscience, Meng Yan bluffed her a few more words, only then did Xia change her words and say that it was a man who gave her away.

Meng Yan suddenly remembered the middle-aged man she met down the mountain with an umbrella on the way up the mountain.

Except for him, there were no other pilgrims who went down the mountain at that time.

It's just that Meng Yan was focused on going up the mountain at that time, and didn't pay much attention to it.

However, the Xia family didn't just give someone an umbrella for no reason, let alone the other party was a man.

After repeated questioning, Meng Yan understood the whole story.

It turned out that Mrs. Xia slipped and fell on the stone steps, and he rescued it in time, thus breaking his own umbrella. Mrs. Xia gave him her own umbrella as a thank you before he left.

Xia didn't dare to tell Meng Yan that she fell on the last two steps up the mountain.

Right now, Meng Yan was already talking non-stop, saying: "Going out to ask for a safe talisman is just a visit to a temple to relax, and I don't say anything in advance. Even if I don't say it in advance, I still have to check the weather. It's snowing so heavily. The road is not easy to walk, what should I do if I fall down?"

Xia said awkwardly: "I went out early today, the sky has not yet fully opened, and I can't see whether the weather is good or bad."

Meng Yan said, "It was snowing on the road, why didn't you return in time?"

Xia Shi: "It's a waste of time to go back when we're all at our feet."

Meng Yan looked serious: "Fortunately, I'm here to pick you up today. Look at how difficult the road down the mountain is. If you fall again, how can there be so many kind-hearted people to help you. Next time this happens, don't be brave. , come back honestly, and wait until the next time the weather is fine.”

Xia Shi was so read by his daughter that he didn't dare to talk back, after all, he was wronged.

Meng Yan asked again solemnly: "By the way, what does the kind person who helped you today look like, and what does he look like?"

Xia Shi: "..."

Meng Yan said: "You gave him the umbrella and didn't ask him where he lived or who his last name was. Otherwise, where would you go to ask him for an umbrella next time?"

Xia Shi: "...it's just an umbrella, why do you want to come back?"

Meng Yan: "Of course I have to come back. It's not auspicious to give someone an umbrella."

Xia Shi asked, "Why is it unlucky?"

Meng Yan said casually: "When you gave him the umbrella, do you want him to lift it or not?"

It took Xia a while to react, and she blushed angrily and said, "Meng Yan! You've been thinking about something in a mess all day long! Copy "Nvjie" five times for me tonight! Don't sleep if you can't finish it!"

In the evening, Meng Yan sat at the table, looking at the "Women's Precepts" and the prepared blank paper on the table, feeling a little puzzled.

Wasn't she talking about her mother? It was so hard for her to take the opportunity to say it once. Why did she end up being punished by her mother for copying this?
Alas, the current mother, if you really want to turn your face, you will turn your face, without any discussion.

When Yin Heng returned to his room, he saw Meng Yan lying down at the desk writing.

He walked behind Meng Yan, glanced at what she was copying, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you making your mother-in-law angry again?"

Meng Yan said: "She is really angry for no reason."

Yin Heng heard about Xia's visit to Huguo Temple today, but he didn't know the details yet.

Right now, I heard Meng Yan say: "I'm not angry yet, but she is in a hurry. It's snowing so much today, and she hastened to go. If it wasn't for someone's help, I'm afraid she would have to fall twice. In order to thank others Well, she gave her umbrella to others, if the snow doesn't stop in the afternoon, I'll see how she comes back."

Meng Yan wrote a few words and said: "It doesn't matter to thank you, after all, it is right to thank people for their help. But my mother didn't ask for their names and addresses. It's really a pity."

Yin Heng said in a gentle voice, "Then why is mother-in-law angry?"

Meng Yan said: "I said that she should ask where the person lives, so that she can ask for an umbrella next time. This is the second thing to ask for an umbrella. The main reason is that if the person is really good, there must be a legitimate reason for coming and going. Isn’t it? But I can’t tell her that explicitly, I can only tactfully say that giving an umbrella is unlucky.”

Yin Heng asked: "Why is it unlucky?"

Meng Yan shrugged and said, "My mother also asked, so I had to tell her, when you give someone an umbrella, do you want them to lift it or not, and then my mother will be like this when she gets angry."

"..." Yin Heng rubbed his forehead and said, "Mother-in-law only asked you to copy it five times?" That's really light.

"Five times is still less, I have to copy at least two hours."

She was copying here, Yin Heng took the clothes in the room, and went into the bathroom to wash up.

When he came back, he was warm and clean, and made the bath soup in the bathtub behind the screen.When he walked behind Meng Yan, the breath blended seamlessly with the scent of ink in front of him, making Meng Yan absent-minded for a while.
