After Shen Xingwan came back, he rested hard for a few days behind closed doors in the courtyard and lived a life of salty fish.
I was tinkering with ice bowls that afternoon when Banxia walked in with a hot air on her face, looking like she was hesitant to speak.
Shen Xingwan handed her a bowl of cooked food, "What are you doing? Your face is all red."
Banxia hesitated for a moment, "The eldest son is here and said that his wife is seriously ill. He hopes you will go back and take a look."
Zhang, Shen Yu…
Although not much time had passed, Shen Xingwan felt that these names were so far away that she had almost forgotten them.
Qinghong answered on the side, "I've been here several times and always asked if there was any news about the lady. She said she fainted after hearing something happened to her."
Shen Xingwan was half curious and half confused, and finally decided to go back and see what was going on with the Shen family now.
Shen Yu anxiously stamped his feet at the door and waited. The July sun was shining brightly, and his mouth quickly became dry.
After waiting for more than an hour, I saw a familiar carriage coming out of the side door.
The carriage stopped in front of him, the curtain was opened, and Banxia poked her head out, "Miss, please get in the carriage."
Shen Yu was dizzy due to the sun, and he hesitated before getting on the carriage.
Sitting a little awkwardly across from Shen Xingwan, Shen Xingwan handed him a cup of herbal tea.
Shen Xingwan carefully looked at Shen Yu who was drinking tea. His whole person was inexplicably gloomy and weathered. Although the clothes he wore were clean and tidy, the workmanship of the fabrics was far from what it was when she was still in the Shen family.
The arrogance in his body has almost disappeared.
Shen Xingwan looked at him very calmly. So much had happened during this period, and the past of the Shen family could no longer stir up any excitement for her.
Her eyes had no time to focus on these parents' shortcomings.
Shen Yu lowered his head and drank a cup of tea before speaking, "Mother is very ill and has been bedridden for the past half month."
Shen Xingwan said softly "Yeah".
Autumn was approaching, but he could not focus on stabilizing the book. He was entangled in family affairs and had to take care of the Zhang family, which made him exhausted mentally and physically.
In the dead of night, Shen Yu couldn't help but think that if Shen Xingwan was still here, she would be able to handle everything well.
"Congratulations, you are about to become the legitimate daughter of the Shen family." Shen Yu said with a complicated mood.
Shen Xingwan smiled brightly at him and said, "Thank you."
She seemed to be genuinely happy about this incident, without any regrets or nostalgia.
Shen Yu smiled bitterly and looked at Shen Xingwan intently, "We have lived together for five years and have always been very good. Just because Jingyi came back once, do we have to reach this point?"
After so long, Shen Yu calmly thought about it from beginning to end. He could probably understand Shen Xingwan's grievances, but she didn't understand Shen Xingwan's ruthlessness.
How could I withdraw all my love and affection for them in an instant.
"Isn't the so-called five years of peace because I have always paid more?" Shen Xingwan chuckled.
She initially had the idea of winning the hearts of the Shen family to her side, so she supported them and treated them well.
There should be some feelings that accumulate over time, but unfortunately they are vulnerable in front of Su Jingyi.
"It's all over, the reason doesn't matter anymore." Shen Xingwan said nonchalantly.
If the Shen family didn't bother her in the future, she wouldn't insist on doing anything to them.
If he goes against her like in the plot, she won't show any mercy.
Shen Yu wanted to say something more, but found that they had nothing to say now.
After complaining, arguing, being confused, and even hating, what remains is the indifference of a stranger.
In just half a year, everything has changed.
It wasn't until the sun had set that the carriage arrived at the door of Shen's house.
Shen Xingwan got out of the car and walked into the yard, which was strange yet familiar.
The beautiful yard she once took care of is now nothing but bare.
"The young master is back." A gentle voice came from the corner,
Man Niang, dressed in Tsing Yi and carrying a cheap but exquisite beaded flower, walked out with a charming and enchanting face.
Shen Xingwan's eyes fell on her belly, "How many months have it been?"
Manniang lowered her head and looked at her belly gently, "It's been more than three months."
He smiled and greeted Shen Xingwan, "Girl, come in and sit down. You must be tired from the long journey."
As if she were a hostess, Shen Yu said to Shen Xingwan with a cold face, "Let's go see mother."
Shen Xingwan followed Shen Yu to Mrs. Zhang's room. Manniang stood there looking at their backs and murmured, "My child, you have to keep up the good work."
Regardless of whether it was a son or a daughter, she would be satisfied as long as she had half the talent and intelligence of the siblings.
She has endured a lot of hardships and is also a smart woman. She originally asked Su Jingyi to stay in the Shen family because she knew that a family like the Shen family would be more suitable for her.
If she were a wealthy family, she wouldn't be able to stand out.
Shen Yu reached out and pushed open the door of the room. The smell of Chinese medicine that hit his face made Shen Xing frown every night.
"Let's go in and take a look." Shen Yu whispered.
Shen Xingwan walked in and saw Mrs. Zhang, who was pale and skinny lying on the bed.
She is completely different from the Zhang who was aggressive towards her in her memory.
"Mom, I'm back." Shen Yu walked to the bed and said.
Madam Zhang woke up and saw Shen Xingwan sitting not far away.
Mrs. Zhang's tears came instantly and she began to sob softly.
Shen Yu advised from the side, "Didn't my sister come to see you? Stop crying. You are not feeling well yet."
Shen Xingwan raised his eyebrows, wanting to correct Shen Yu's mistake. She was not his sister now.
Mrs. Zhang cried for a while and waved to Shen Xingwan, "Come here and talk to mother."
Shen Xingwan walked over and looked at her distantly, "I'm going to start the family tree soon."
This is to remind her that she is no longer her daughter.
Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a moment, "You hate me so much!"
"It can't be said to be hate, of course there is definitely no love." Shen Xingwan said calmly.
Although I was disappointed, I didn't hate it.
Mrs. Zhang looked at her, she was so beautiful. She looked in high spirits, and it was obvious that she was still living a good life.
She was the one who had a bad life. Shen Tang became more and more partial to Man Niang, and their relationship hit rock bottom after Man Niang was diagnosed with the child.
The business wasn't that prosperous anymore. There were more and more shops selling cold noodles and braised vegetables like hers, and she lost a lot of customers.
Things at home were also in a mess, and she would never go back to it. In the past, when she returned home from the stall, there would be prepared meals waiting for her, and occasionally late-night snacks. Everything in the house was taken care of, and she didn't need to worry about anything. days.
Sometimes people are mean anyway. Shen Xingwan didn't feel anything when they were together. Only when she left Zhang did she realize how good she was and everything she had given.
Mrs. Zhang said sincerely with red eyes, "Xingwan, it was my mother who made a mistake."
It's because she was deceived and thought she was right, and it's because she didn't handle Su Jingyi's matter well.
