Reborn Evil Mother-in-law - Chapter 158
“My father can dance the sword, and he dances very well!”
“My father can make grasshoppers, and it’s very beautiful.”
…
Brother An, what about your father? What will your father do?”
“Angel lied, only mother can embroider, father can’t!” A child retorted loudly.
“No, my mother can embroider, and my father can do embroidery, too, and the embroidery is beautiful, even better than my mother’s embroidery!” Seeing that they didn’t believe it, Ange said angrily.
“Really?” A dubious voice.
“Of course it’s true, it’s not a good boy to lie, I never lie!” An Ge’er puffed out her small chest and said proudly.
Then he added loudly: “Your father can do it, so can my daddy, but my daddy can, but your daddy can’t, so, my daddy is the best!”
“Angel’s daddy is amazing!”
“Mmmmmm, it’s really amazing, even the mother knows things.”
“Hey, if only my dad could embroider, he would be even better than Angie’s dad!”
…
“Pfft!” Shen Xinyan couldn’t help laughing anymore.
Angel, surrounded by friends, saw her figure with sharp eyes, and immediately ran over with her short legs, calling out, “Grandma!”
Shen Xinyan smiled and caressed the little guy’s face, and the other little guys also shouted and surrounded him, chattering non-stop, rushing to speak.
“Auntie, I recognized five more characters today, and my husband praised me!”
“Grandmother, grandmother, I recognized one more character than him today!”
“I learned a new poem yesterday, second grandmother, do you want to listen to me?”
“Aunt Shen, your thousand-layer cakes are delicious, can I bring a few pieces back for daddy to eat?”
Aunt grandmother, grandmother, second grandmother, aunt Shen… All kinds of names, but they refer to the same person – Shen Xinyan who patiently listened to their words.
Shen Xinyan always had a gentle smile on her face, responding to their childish words one by one.
Not far away, Wei Junhang, who happened to be returning home, stood beside the rockery with a smile, and saw this scene completely.
Time flies, as if the blink of an eye, the smiling woman in the hundred flowers has been with him for decades. Today, they have been promoted to grandparents, and the entire British government is always haunted by the childish laughter of children.
I finally coaxed the little guys to follow their respective maids to wash their hands and wash their faces. Shen Xinyan raised her eyes and met Wei Junhang’s smiling face.
She couldn’t help laughing, and walked slowly to meet him: “I’m back? Didn’t you say you’ll be back later?”
“I learned that Mrs. Xu left Dundun in our mansion, Qiao Liu was in no mood to sit still and slipped away early.” Wei Junhang explained.
Shen Xinyan chuckled lightly: “Is he planning to take his son and make his mother?”
“No, he intends to forcibly pick one up and send one away.” Wei Junhang replied solemnly.
Shen Xinyan laughed and gave him an angry look: “You, you like to watch other people’s jokes by the side, don’t you!”
Wei Junhang laughed, but did not deny it.
“It was Ying’er who brought Ange’er back? Could it be that she quarreled with Yunfu again?” From a distance, I watched my grandson Ange’er jumping and holding the grandmother’s hand Back home, he asked again.
“It was brought back by Ying’er, when will their young couple stop making trouble? Look at it, Yunfu will come in less than half an hour, and at most only one cup of tea will be needed. The two people will be able to reconcile.” Shen Xinyan disagreed.
This is not enough for the quarrel with the enemy? It won’t be long before they will be reconciled, and the muzzle will be unanimous.
“This is really what kind of pot goes with what kind of lid.” Wei Junhang laughed.
The two of them chatted and laughed, all the way to the Funing Institute.
“Second uncle, second aunt.” On the way, Wei Chengqi was seen walking with his pregnant wife in the distance. Wei Chengqi and his wife also saw them and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
Wei Chengqi’s wife is not of high birth, but the daughter of a fifth-rank civil official, but this quiet temperament is very similar to Wei Chengqi. Shen Xinyan thought that these two people who didn’t like to talk got together, I was afraid that the sky was deaf and the earth was dumb, and there was nothing to say. It was only when she accidentally saw them getting along in private that she knew that she really guessed wrong.
The younger men of the Duke’s Mansion, except for Wei Chenglin, who is far away in the northern Xinjiang, are all married. Now even Wei Chengqi is about to become a father. In contrast, Shen Xinyan is inevitably lost.
Seeing her staring blankly at the back of Wei Chengqi and his wife leaving without saying a word, Wei Junhang thought it was strange at first, but he understood after a little thought, took her hand and said softly: “In half a year, Chenglin will be returning to Beijing.”
“What did you say?” Shen Xinyan was stunned, and she couldn’t believe what she heard.
If she lived at this age in her life, there was nothing she couldn’t let go of, and only her eldest son Wei Chenglin was far away in the northern Xinjiang.
There were several times when she watched the scene of the second room’s Yang family having fun with her grandchildren. Although it was not obvious on the surface, she was very envious in her heart.
Sometimes she even wondered, would it be because Zhou Wanning remarried in this life that her son would not even be able to marry?
“Yes, His Majesty has already agreed, and the officials sent to replace him have already set off. At the most half a year, Chenglin will be able to return to Beijing.” Wei Junhang replied.
Shen Xinyan was surprised and delighted: “It’s so good! If my mother knew this news, she would be very happy!”
This time, in the days approaching the death of the eldest princess in her previous life, Shen Xinyan guarded her almost every step of the way, doing her best to make her happy, until she passed the death threshold of her previous life little by little. , this is a complete relief.
She felt that the most painful thing in her two lifetime memories was knowing that the time passed by the person she cared about had passed, and she tried every means to avoid the past for the other person, but in the end she was powerless.
For example, Mrs. Jing’an Botai in this life, and her father-in-law in this life, the former British father-in-law.
One died earlier than the previous life, and the other died at the same time as the previous life.
Wei Junhang had a smile on his lips, but there was a look of worry between his brows.
Although the body of the eldest princess looks fine on the surface, and the spirit is not bad, but he will not fail to see that her health is not as good as before. If it wasn’t for the fact that there was always something in his heart that he couldn’t let go of, he would have followed the old prince early in the morning.
This is also the reason why he sent his eldest son back to Beijing in advance.
***
Northern Xinjiang.
Wei Chenglin rode his horse on the endless grassland. The blue sky was cloudless, and the breath of green grass was everywhere.
He reined in the reins and turned around to look at this vast land with a satisfied smile on his face.
In the past three years, the situation in northern Xinjiang has gradually stabilized. Although it is still not possible to completely eliminate the conflict between the Rongdi people and the people in northern Xinjiang, it has been greatly reduced. The Rongdi people have gradually integrated into the local area. The shock power is also greatly increased.
At least, in the last year, he no longer has to personally go out to shock the Rong Di and the people of northern Xinjiang.
“General, are we going back to Beijing?” A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy drove his horse to his side and asked.
“Yeah, I’m going back to Beijing!” Wei Chenglin smiled slightly, his expression full of nostalgia.
After many years of separation, I don’t know how my grandmother and parents are at home, whether it is as stated in the letter, and everything is fine.
“The general is going back to marry the general’s wife? If so, the girl of the Mo family will be heartbroken.”
“Don’t talk nonsense, be careful to damage Miss Mo’s reputation.” Wei Chenglin frowned in disapproval.
The boy stuck his tongue out at him, knowing that he didn’t like hearing these words, so he quickly changed the subject.
General is good at everything, but he doesn’t like to talk or laugh. But even if this is the case, it can’t stop the girl who likes him from continuing to follow, especially the daughter of the Mo Zhifu Lord Mo in the city, who is getting more frustrated and brave, and has no intention of retreating.
The camp has secretly set up a bet, betting when the Miss Mo family will be able to take down this cold general, but unfortunately now the general is going back to Beijing, Miss Mo is only interested Fear of being betrayed.
And there will be no small number of people who lose money because of this gamble.
Wei Chenglin didn’t pay attention to the regretful expression on his face, he only cared about his relatives far away in the capital, especially the eldest princess. From the letters from his father in the past, we can see that my grandmother has been in the past few years. Miss yourself.
As soon as he thought of the loving face of the eldest princess, he hated so much that two wings were born under his ribs, and taught him to fly back to his relatives in the capital at once.
The eldest princess in Beijing also quickly learned the news that the eldest grandson was about to return to Beijing.
Seeing this, Shen Xinyan hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: “The promise that Brother Lin made to his mother before he left Beijing is now about to be fulfilled. The candidate for the grandson-in-law?”
The eldest princess also remembered what Wei Chenglin said to herself before she left the capital. It was for those words that she insisted on not letting herself down.
The eldest granddaughter-in-law didn’t enter the door, how could she be willing to close her eyes and kick her legs.
The eldest princess laughed and said proudly: “Of course there is.”
“Yes?” Shen Xinyan just said casually to coax her. She never thought that she actually had a candidate, and was surprised for a while.
“I don’t know which girl it is?” she asked.
“I liked this girl last year, she is the most suitable for Brother Lin, but at that time I didn’t know when Brother Lin would be able to return to Beijing, so I didn’t dare to say it, but Been watching.”
“I think if there is fate, this girl has not made a marriage plan before Brother Lin returns to Beijing, then I will decide and order her for Brother Lin; if there is no fate, then It can only be like this.”
“Now it seems that this girl and our brother Lin are indeed destined!” Speaking of which, the eldest princess couldn’t hide her pride, and the whole person looked at it as if years younger.
“Which girl is that? My mother really hooked me up.” Hearing her say this, Shen Xinyan became even more curious and asked with a smile.
The eldest princess seemed to deliberately betray her: “Who is Brother Lin to replace in Northern Xinjiang?”
“To replace General Huang who was unable to perform his duties due to a relapse of an old illness.”
“When did General Huang return to the capital?”
“You can leave for Beijing after the transfer of business affairs is completed, but because the doctor diagnosed General Huang’s injury that it is not suitable to travel far, so General Huang has been staying in northern Xinjiang until his injury improved last year. Back to Beijing.” Seeing that she was in high spirits, Shen Xinyan also accompanied her around in circles.
“Does General Huang have a daughter in his boudoir?”
“As far as I know, there is someone…Could it be that the mother said this is the yellow girl?” Shen Xinyan finally came to her senses.
The eldest princess smiled with satisfaction: “Yes, it is this girl!”
“This surprises me a bit. How could my mother like Miss Huang? This girl has lived in northern Xinjiang with her father since she was a child, and only returned to Beijing last year.”
There are still some things that Shen Xinyan did not say, this Huang girl is indeed not a good candidate in the eyes of the ladies of the various governments.
First of all, this girl grew up in northern Xinjiang, where is northern Xinjiang? In the eyes of the people of the capital, it is a barbaric land, and the people there are barbarians. Naturally, this girl Huang is also half a barbarian from the northern Xinjiang.
Secondly, this Huang girl is the eldest daughter of General Huang. Mrs. Huang passed away a few years ago, and General Huang has never remarried. This eldest daughter without the guidance of her biological mother has never been A good daughter-in-law candidate for a wealthy family.
Finally, the beauty of today’s women is fairness and delicacy. This yellow girl is longer than the northern Xinjiang where the wind and sand are more than the sun, and it is indeed not very related to the fine whiteness and tenderness. Of course, it’s not that this girl has any bad looks, it’s just that she is not delicate enough compared to the pampered young lady in the capital.
“This girl is a piece of rough jade, she is very good at carving, she will be able to support this family with Brother Lin in the future. It’s ridiculous and lamentable that the world is used to taking people by their own, and they are trapped in rules and regulations, and they don’t know gold. Inlaid jade.”
“Although this girl lost her mother at an early age, but over the years she has taken the role of mother and has managed everything in the house in an orderly manner. It can be seen that she is extremely intelligent.”
“filial piety to his father, raising his younger brother, filial piety and righteousness, and never complaining against others, which shows his broad-mindedness.”
“In terms of character, there are not many girls like her in the capital. I look at these days with a cold eye, and I am both distressed and happy.”
“I feel sorry that this child is so well criticized, I am glad that such vulgar goods don’t know gold and jade, which also gives us a chance to find out!” The eldest princess sighed.
“Mother speaks so highly of this girl, if she can’t marry her back, it’s really a pity in our house.” Shen Xinyan said.
Shen Xin replied with a smile: “Just as my mother said.”
At this point, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have finally reached an agreement on the choice of Wei Chenglin’s wife.
Five months later, Wei Chenglin, who had been away from the capital for more than three years, finally returned.
As soon as he entered the door, he knelt in front of the elder without saying a word, and kowtowed several times respectfully.
The eldest princess wanted to stop him, but Wei Junhang firmly supported her not to let her come forward, and shook his head at her inaudibly.
The eldest princess understood what he meant, and stood silently with tears in her eyes, watching the eldest grandson’s forehead soon swelled with redness.
“Grandmother, grandson is not filial…” Wei Chenglin choked.
“Let the elderly grandmother at home worry about you, you are indeed unfilial.” Wei Junhang said slowly.
Wei Chenglin lowered his body again.
“Now, after many years of self-imposed exile, have you figured it out? Have you let go of what you should have done? Are you ready to take responsibility for what you should have done?” Wei Junhang asked seriously with sharp eyes.
Wei Chenglin met his gaze calmly, and said calmly: “My child has gone through a lot over the years, many births and deaths, several times his life was hanging by a thread, and after turning the corner, looking back on this life is like a dream .”
“There are so many things in the past that can’t be traced, the child just thinks that the most important thing in life is the word responsibility.”
Wei Junhang’s face finally softened, he stepped forward to help him up, patted his shoulder, and said softly, “Go see your grandmother and mother.”
