Chapter 58: You Are Really a Dutiful Daughter

The next day, Shen Xingwan announced to the public that Zhuangzi had invited a friend to change the wind and cold, and no one else was allowed to disturb him.

Ban Xia stayed in the room for twenty hours, carefully taking care of the injured beauty.

Shen Xingwan didn't dare to see the doctor and gave him medicine based on his half-knowledge.

Fat Meow said worriedly at the side, "I'm really afraid that you'll poison him. Can the medicine you prepared be taken?"

Shen Xingwan glanced at the fat cat with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be a very caring cat, why don't you give him a try?"

Fat Meow, Meow~ escaped, and the scheming girl tried to trick him again.

Three days passed, and the beauty's high fever subsided, but she still didn't wake up.

In order not to arouse others' suspicion, Shen Xingwan should still go to school.

No, after school that day, Shen Tang blocked him at the entrance of the college.

"Wanwan, do you know that everyone is worried about you?" Shen Tang said as he came up.

Shen Xingwan said with a half-smile, "Is that why you came here now?"

"Don't you know where you went?" Shen Tang was also a little embarrassed.

The main reason is that they all know that Shen Xingwan is a powerful person. Since she has spoken out, she will probably be fine outside.

"Tell me what you want to do with me." Shen Xingwan said calmly.

"Today is your mother's birthday, you should go home for dinner. You are angry now, and this matter should be over." Shen Tang advised.

Shen Xingwan quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. If he didn't follow Shen Tang today and let Shen Tang find Zhuangzi, it would be difficult to explain the beauty's matter.

In ancient times, filial piety was overwhelming. Now she was still the daughter of the Shen family. She should go to her mother's birthday, both emotionally and rationally, and she didn't want to leave a trail.

"I know, let's go back."

Shen Tang was stunned for a moment, not expecting that she would agree so quickly.

When I returned to Shen's house, I heard laughter like silver bells as soon as I entered the yard.

Before Shen Xingwan said anything, the corners of Shen Tang's eyes twitched.

There won't be trouble again, why is Su Jingyi here?

Shen Xingwan straightened his back and walked in calmly.

"Mom, I'm back."

The laughter in the room stopped abruptly.

Su Jingyi lowered her head, showing a scared look. Zhang's expression was also very subtle, one part embarrassed and two parts surprised, but in short she didn't look happy.

Shen Xingwan sat down minding his own business, poured himself a cup of hot tea without any courtesy, picked up the snacks on the table and ate them.

This is her home, she can go back when she wants and leave when she wants. She won't be embarrassed anyway.

While eating snacks, Shen Xingwan smiled and said, "Why don't you talk anymore? Didn't you have a very happy chat just now? Let's keep chatting!"

He even pretended to listen. Who can be disgusting?

Mrs. Zhang really looked like she had swallowed a fly. She didn't understand why Shen Xingwan could be so nonchalant.

In the awkward atmosphere, it was finally time for dinner.

Wearing a cloth dress, the thin young woman prepared dishes one after another from the kitchen, all delicious and delicious.

Shen Xingwan didn't think much about it at first, thinking it was someone hired by his family.

It was not until dinner was finished in a harmonious atmosphere that Shen Yu took the lead and took out the gift, "Mom, take the gift. I wish you a happy birthday."

It is a head flower with unique workmanship. It is exquisite and beautiful, but it is not very valuable.

Shen Tang gave him a bracelet, and even Shen Xiaoguo gave him a boat he carved.

On this occasion, how could Su Jingyi, who has a deep love for mother and daughter, miss the opportunity to express herself?

Sure enough, the first purchase was a big deal, a set of gold headdress and a piece of expensive cloth.

"It's too expensive, my mother can't accept it." Although Mrs. Zhang was visibly happy, she still refused.

Su Jingyi immediately held Zhang's hand and acted coquettishly, "No matter how precious it is, my mother is worthy of it. I still remember the kindness my mother was to me when I was a child."

Sure enough, Mrs. Zhang's eyes turned red when she was moved.

"What are you giving me, sister?" Su Jingyi looked at her expectantly.

Shen Xingwan took out a pair of simple and elegant earrings and handed them to Zhang, "Mom, take them and wear them as you like."

Mrs. Zhang sighed and took it without saying anything extra.

Obviously compared to Su Jingyi's gift, Shen Xingwan's gift was not enough.

Seeing the smile between Su Jingyi's brows and eyes, Shen Xingwan felt nothing. She didn't really want Zhang's so-called maternal love, and she had no intention of arguing with Su Jingyi on this matter.

If you win the fight, will you gain an extra piece of meat or what?

"Manniang, come here." Su Jingyi waved to the woman who had been standing in the corner with her head lowered and silent.

"Mom, what do you think of Man Niang's craftsmanship?"

Mrs. Zhang thought for a while and said truthfully, "Not bad. The cooking tastes delicious."

Su Jingyi said thoughtfully, "How about I leave Man Niang at home to cook?"

"Isn't this... bad?" Ms. Zhang was a little embarrassed.

"I rescued Man Niang on the road. It's not convenient to take her back to Beijing. I don't feel at ease if she stays here. I think she just lacks a maid, so I might as well keep Man Niang here." Su Jingyi said.

Man Niang looked at Mrs. Zhang who was silent and knelt down straight, "Please stay with me, madam. I can cook, wash clothes and clean the yard. I can do anything. I just want a bowl of rice to eat."

As he spoke, he knocked his head down, and Shen Xingwan felt pain hearing the sound.

Mrs. Zhang was startled and quickly helped her, "Don't be like this."

"Man Niang's life experience is miserable, so I just think she is doing something good and just give her a bite to eat." Su Jingyi persuaded her from the side.

Mrs. Zhang thought about it carefully, and after Ban Xia was gone, she was indeed a working person.

Compared with buying or hiring people from outside, using this manniang is much more cost-effective, as it only provides food and shelter.

"You can stay if you want, but first make it clear that our family is not a wealthy one."

Man Niang said excitedly, "Thank you, madam, I will work hard."

"Get up and stay here from now on." Mrs. Zhang said.

Manniang stood up and stepped aside respectfully.

Only then did Shen Xingwan see her face clearly. How should I put it? She was soft and frail, with a certain charm.

Such a woman could be rescued by the superior lady of the Hou family, and then she could be stuffed into her adoptive mother's house.

Shen Xingwan's intuition was not quite right, and it might be a disaster.

"Mom, you are really the best." Over there, Su Jingyi was exaggerating her good nature.

Mrs. Zhang was so happy that she was coaxed, and Shen Xingwan thought about it and decided not to meddle in other people's business.

Maybe people think she is meddlesome and want to provoke her.

"Sister said very little tonight. Are you still angry?"

As expected, Su Jingyi felt uncomfortable all day long if she didn't bother her.

Shen Xingwan looked at her quietly without saying a word.

Su Jingyi soon felt uncomfortable, "Did I make my sister unhappy again?"

Shen Xingwan laughed and said, "I just think you are such a filial daughter, giving it to your mother."

She is also a woman of unknown origin.

Su Jingyi didn't hear anything in her words at all, so she answered, "I just can't bear to leave my mother because she is too tired."

Shen Xingwan looked at Man Niang again with her head lowered in the corner and said nothing more.
