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

Chapter 721

By the time the Marquis of Shang sent the Xia family back to Yinwu Palace safely, it was getting late.

When Meng Yan heard that Mrs. Xia was back, she went to the back door to meet her.

A Shuo, who had been kept in the palace all this time, was naturally able to go to the back door to see his master.

It's just that when Shang Hou saw him, he was obviously surprised.

Because A Shuo not only had a resentful expression on his face, apparently complaining about why he took so long to come, but also had a bruised nose and a swollen face.

The Marquis of Shang asked Ah Shuo, "Did you fall?"

Meng Yan explained: "It's rare for Ah Shuo to come here once. Chongyi was very happy to see him. I didn't look at him for a while, but Chongyi had a discussion with him. Please forgive me." apologize.

She just detained Ah Shuo and asked Chongyi to take him to dinner, but she didn't expect that the two of them would start fighting on the way.

Chongyi stood up, snorted coldly at A Shuo, then hugged him with a sword in his hand as an apology.

Under Shang Hou's gaze, A Shuo also snorted coldly, louder than Chong Yi, and had to clasped his fists in return.

Seeing this, Chongyi was dissatisfied, and wanted to hum back even louder, but Meng Yan smiled and grabbed her in time.

At that time Yin Heng was standing beside Meng Yan, and Chong Xian followed behind.Chongxian squeezed his forehead silently.

Chongyi's temper is usually bad, and Meng Yan was a little ashamed at first, but now that the other party also has a bad mood, she feels balanced.

Shang Hou was also a little ashamed, it can be seen that the other party also has a spoiled beast that is not inferior to his own, and his heart is inexplicably balanced.

So the atmosphere on the scene has a kind of subtle harmony.

After understanding the situation, Marquis Shang said without hesitation, "Princess Yin Wu is overthinking. Since they are competing with each other, it is because his skills are not as good as others."

After Xia Shi came out of the carriage, Meng Yan saw that she was not in the right state, she seemed to be walking on tiptoe, it was Meng Yan's turn to ask Shang Hou: "Did my mother fall?"

In the end, before Marquis Shang could reply, Xia waved his hands and said, "It's none of his business, I accidentally twisted my foot."

Meng Yan was silent, and Xia Shi said with some embarrassment: "Let's go back and talk about it first."

Meng Yan first helped Mrs. Xia back to the yard, and left the rest to Yin Heng.

Yin Heng and Shang Hou greeted each other, and then said simply and directly: "It's getting late, so I won't let Lord Hou drink tea."

Shang Hou said: "I won't bother King Wu of Yin anymore, I will talk about it another day when I have a chance."

Then Marquis Shang sat in the carriage, and Ashuo drove the carriage away from here.

In fact, the whereabouts of Marquis Shang in the capital should not be revealed, and Yin Heng should not let him have more contact with the palace, otherwise it would be bad for everyone.

Even if there is friendship to talk about, it is definitely not in the palace.

***
When Mrs. Xia returned to the yard, Meng Yan checked her ankle in time, and saw that it was still slightly red and swollen, but it was not serious anymore.

Meng Yan then asked, "Why did you go out and make it like this?"

Xia simply said that he saw a snake at that place, and he sprained his ankle because he walked too fast.But the snake failed to hurt her, and was stabbed to death by the Marquis of Shang.

She didn't mention anything about how many hours she had been waiting in Jingyuan today.

Meng Yan said indifferently, "Mother is not a coward. If a stranger comes to pick you up, you still dare to follow. Isn't the lesson from last time not enough? And I was told after I left."

Xia quickly explained: "I haven't seen the person who came to pick me up, but he didn't have any malicious intentions. Moreover, he went to the same place as last time. Only Lord Hou asked me to go there."

Meng Yan tapped on the table and said, "How do you know that the Marquis of Shang must have invited you? What if it's someone else?"

Xia Shi said: "There should be few people in Beijing who know about Lord Hou."

Meng Yan said: "If people from the Li country learn of the existence of You Niang and feel malicious, what should they do?"

Xia clasped her hands in her sleeves, and said: "I'm just a woman, who can be hindered by my existence. If the people from the Li country want to harm me, why does the Marquis have to take so much effort to get rid of me?" Take the hairpin back to Li country to confirm. Also,
"Since Lord Hou has spent a lot of time to do it, it means that this hairpin is indeed an important thing to his country of Li. He is the Marquis of Qin country of Li country, I believe he should be very careful in handling things, and will not mix important things with Things let unrelated people know.

"You said that if the enemy of Lord Hou wanted to deal with Lord Hou, he would be against me, but the person who came to pick me up today knew everything about A Shuo, even his birth date. A Shuo was just an attendant of Lord Hou, and the enemy would Is it so detailed to inquire about his birth date? When I heard him mention Hou Ye's mother, he looked quite respectful, so I went with him."

After Xia finished speaking, she didn't wait for Meng Yan's answer.

When she looked up, she saw that Meng Yan was just looking at her and didn't speak, the hands clasped in her sleeves couldn't help but tightened, and she said cautiously: "Am I wrong?"

Suddenly, Meng Yan raised the corners of her mouth vaguely, raised her eyebrows, nodded and said, "Mother is quite right."

She was just a little surprised that her mother would think so much.Maybe she was really worrying too much.

As she said that, Meng Yan put on a serious face again, "It's just that no matter what, you should tell me before going. Don't worry, mother, I won't just follow along to ruin the scenery at this time."

Embarrassed and embarrassing, Xia said, "I'm just...just..."

"Just what, I'm just afraid that I will see how disturbed my mother's heart is?"

Xia Shi looked at the flickering candlelight on the table and remained silent.

Meng Yan also looked at the candle, and said, "I'm worried, but I won't use it as an excuse to stop you from thinking of someone or wanting to see someone."

Xia Shi moved his mouth, but was finally speechless.

Meng Yan said: "Mother can't just care about other people's feelings all her life, and can't always focus on your daughter and grandson. You should face up to your own feelings."

Xia's eyes were reddish, and his eyes gradually became moist, and said: "But having you has already made me feel very happy."

Meng Yan said, "But there is another kind of happiness that you haven't experienced yet."

Xia Shi took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "Don't talk about this, it's impossible."

In fact, Meng Yan is also very contradictory.If only Shang Hou was from the Yin country, she would definitely encourage her mother to be braver without any hesitation.

Speaking of the hairpin, Xia thought about it, took off the purple hairpin on her head, handed it to Meng Yan and said, "Master Hou returned it today, you take it."

Meng Yan said with a smile: "Mother wear it, I think it looks good on my mother."

Xia said: "I gave it to you earlier, so there is no reason to take it back."

Meng Yan closed Xia's hand and let her hold it by herself, saying: "The story between Mother and it is not over yet, how can you give it to me easily. With Mother, it really has its value and meaning."

In the end, Xia had no choice but to put it away carefully.
