Shen Xin Yan lowered her eyes and caressed the jade bracelet on her hand, turning a blind eye to Mama Sun.
Xiao Ying Zhi blinked her big eyes ignorantly. She tilted her head to look at her mother for a while, and then looked at Mama Sun again, with a blank expression on her face.
Mama Sun knelt on the ground, her face turned pale as time passed, but she never heard Shen Xin Yan’s voice that made her get up.
“Mother..” It was still the little girl who felt a little distressed about Mama Sun. She coquettishly grabbed her mother’s sleeve and shook it.
Shen Xin Yan pinched her daughter’s blushing face, and then her eyes slowly fell to Mama Sun, who was on the ground. She said calmly, “Get up!”
“Thank you, Madam!” When she breathed a sigh of relief, Shen Xin Yan’s meaningful words rang out again, “Although Mama came from Jing An Bo Fu, now you are receiving silver and rice from Ying Guo Gong Mansion. You should always be able to distinguish your identity when speaking and doing things. My daughter is the jewel in my palm. I gave her to you only because I trusted Mama. I just hope Mama will not betray my trust.”
“She is still young when her innocence was like a blank sheet of paper. Waiting by her side, what should be said, what should not be said, you always need to have a clear mind.”
Mama Sun’s old face turned red and white. She didn’t dare to say anything.
Shen Xin Yan stared at her for a moment, and then slowly continued: “Mama has done her best to serve Ying er over the years. I see it all in my eyes. You only need to remember who you serve. It’s Ying er. When she grows up, she will definitely remember the credits of the Mama. So why do you bother to worry about other people’s affairs? Mama thinks carefully about what I said?”
Mama Sun was suffocated and immediately said again. Kneeling on the ground again: “Madam’s words are reasonable. The slave was blinded by the lard. From now on, this slave will only serve the fourth girl wholeheartedly and ignore other people’s affairs.”
“It’s best if you can think like this. You can go now.” Shen Xin Yan nodded, without trying to find out the sincerity of what she said. She waved her hand and let her back out.
Although Mama Sun was a bit selfish, she really did her best to serve her daughter. With this level, she didn’t even think about dealing with her.
Thinking about it, it was a new life. It seemed to clear the clouds from the sky. In this life, she saw a lot of things that she didn’t pay attention to in her previous life.
For example, the mind of this Mama, and the idea of ??her sister-in-law from Jing An Bo Fu.
She knew very well that at this time, whether it was in her past life or this life, she hadn’t thought of marriage for his son. Besides, she had stopped thinking about it in this life. It was naturally even more impossible to in her daughter the idea of ??”letting cousin Hui marry her brother”.
In the past life, her daughter tried her best to match her cousin Hui and her brother. In addition to being influenced by her mother and being moved by her niece’s infatuation with her son, she also spared no effort in lobbying and hinting at people around her.
But her daughter never imagined that her enthusiasm had brought her own calamity!
Her heart was like being pierced by a needle. Shen Xin Yan took a deep breath, and she lowered her eyes to meet a pair of crystal clear black and white eyes.
“Mother, did Mama do something wrong?” Xiao Ying Zhi asked in confusion.
“Well, she said something she shouldn’t have said.” Shen Xin Yan caressed her tender face and replied gently.
The little girl nodded understandingly.
Shen Xin Yan’s heart was hot. She couldn’t help but say, “Ying er, you have to remember, but if it’s..Well. You’re still young. What am I talking about?”
She sighed vaguely and hugged gently. The ignorant little girl fell into her arms.
It was her fault. She was a pretty failed mother. The tragedy of the daughter in the last life was ultimately caused by her poor upbringing.
In the last life, she regarded her son as the only support for her whole life. She put her whole body and mind on her son. Although she also loved her daughter, she still ignored her.
“Mother will accompany Ying er more in the future.” She suppressed the grief in her heart and said softly.
“Really?” The little girl’s eyes lit up.
“It’s true!”
Shen Xin Yan smiled slightly. She suddenly found the goal of reliving her life – raising her daughter, watching her grow up, marry and have children.. not to repeat the fate of the previous life.
Yes, her life is probably like that in the last life. But her daughter is different. She can have a happy and comfortable future.
With an idea in her mind, her smile became a little more relaxed unconsciously. Her forehead was against the little girl’s, which caused the little girl to giggle happily.
“Master!”
“Is the madam in the room?”
“The madam and the fourth girl are talking in the room!”
When the voice of the man in the sealed memory for a long time came in, Shen Xin Yan’s heart twisted, and she bit her lip subconsciously.
Husband..
This famous dandy son in the capital has achieved nothing in his life. She was unwilling to marry him. Naturally, she didn’t pay much attention to him.
However, even this man, and only this man, no matter what mistakes she made, he always defended her unswervingly. If it weren’t for his accidental death later, she would not have lost her biggest backer. No matter how much her son hated her, he would never have been able to send her to the family temple to live.
Before she died in the last life, she had a brief sanity. What she thought most about was not the son she loved, resented and hated, nor the daughter-in-law who always looked down on her, but her husband who she had always looked down on, but defended her. It’s her husband, Wei Jun Hang, who has been protecting her whole life.
“Ying er is there too? The little girl came back early.” Wei Jun Hang didn’t know what was on his wife’s mind. He lifted the curtain and entered with a smile.
Although he has such a reputation as a “dude”, he is still the son of an aristocratic family. Even if he is now in his twenties, Wei Jun Hang’s appearance is not inferior to that of a young man. The brocade robe made him look taller and taller.
Shen Xin Yan quickly calmed down her thoughts, holding her daughter’s little hand to meet him: “Master!”
Wei Jun Hang scratched his ears when he met his wife’s smiling face. He doesn’t know if it was his delusion, but he always felt that the lady’s smile was much gentler than usual, which made him a little secretly delighted.
“You don’t need to be too polite, ma’am.” He cleared his throat and supported Shen Xin Yan who was saluting. Then he looked straight at his wife uncontrollably.
“Daddy!” Xiao Ying Zhi’s delicate and soft voice awakened Wei Jun Hang who was peeking at his wife’s pretty face.
“Cough.., Daddy’s good girl.” Wei Jun Hang retracted his gaze as if nothing had happened. He pursed his lips and let out a feigned cough. He stretched out his big palm and touched the top of his daughter’s hair lovingly. He spread his palm, took out and handed it to Xiao Ying Zhi.
“Good. Ying’er. Look at this. Do you look like this lucky doll? Daddy especially found it for you.” The little girl curiously took the jade doll to look at it. She smiled in surprise: “Mother, this jade doll is like me. It has two buds tied up!”
Shen Xin Yan also looked at the doll. She nodded with a smile: “It’s just like Ying er.” As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her daughter’s big eyes sparkling.
Seeing the smiles of his wife and daughter, the prince was very happy. He smiled into a cracked mouth, both happy and proud.
Shen Xin Yan looked at his smile and couldn’t help being a little lost.
Compared with Wei Jun Ting, the famous and amazing former Prince of Ying Guo Gong Mansion, this man is not very promising. He has lived in the shadow of his elder brother all his life. Even though Wei Jun Ting has passed away many years, when people mention the prince, they always compared the two of them. People sighed that the Ying Guo Gong Mansion was afraid that there would be no successor.
It’s only this kind-hearted man who never takes those rumours to heart. Even if someone mocks him in the face for being useless, far inferior to Wei Jun Ting, who has been dead for many years, he is not annoyed at all but acknowledges it with a smile.
Marrying him is not what she wanted. Especially after the sisters in the boudoir marry, they will always show off their husbands’ achievements intentionally or unintentionally. They cast their eyes on her as if they pity her. There is always a sense of superiority and aloofness, which makes her give birth to a kind of incompetence.
On the one hand is the husband who makes her lose face in front of her sisters. On the other is the excellent son who is excellent and gives her a face. Over time, her focus is more and more inclined toward her son. She only regards her son as her only support.
She thought that if she hadn’t taken her son so seriously in her last life and had not grasped it so tightly, maybe the chain of events that followed would not have happened.
Or, as the strange voice she heard when the soul was floating said, what she did in the last life was nothing more than a “widow mentality”?
She curled her lips sarcastically.
Even though she had a husband, son and daughter, she could still develop a “widow mentality”. She ended up like that, which is considered self-inflicted.
Wei Jun Hang coaxed his daughter absent-mindedly. His eyes were always involuntarily looking at his wife beside him. Seeing her expression was a bit sentimental, but also a bit self-deprecating, his brows wrinkled unconsciously.
Why is the lady in such a low mood? Could it be that there is something depressed in her heart? Is it the son? Or Jing An Bo Fu? Shouldn’t it be Jing An Bo Fu? He had met with his brother-in-law a few days ago. He didn’t think there would be anything in his brother-in-law’s house that would make his wife worry.
If it’s not Jing An Bo Fu, then is it the son? Thinking about it, she loves her son so much. But she can’t take care of him herself. Except for the morning and evening and major festivals, it is not easy to see her son. After so many years, how can she not feel depressed!
He found the answer in his heart, and he secretly made a decision.
Shen Xin Yan didn’t know how to make up the answer after only a short while. She calmed her mind, walked over and rescued her daughter, who was caught by the bad father. She had her head in a mess. She gave an angry look at a certain noble prince: “Okay. How old are you? You are still arguing with the little girl?”
Wei Jun Hang smiled with a good-tempered look.
Shen Xin Yan ignored him. She took her daughter’s little hands and took the wet handkerchief that Chun Liu handed over to wipe her face. She re-combed two flower buds for her. Then Chun Liu led her out.
“Just now, I heard from my sister-in-law that you withdrew a hundred taels from the public a few days ago. Is there something wrong?” Shen Xin Yan poured tea for Wei Jun Hang herself and asked him about the money.
“This, this, this is indeed the case.” Wei Jun Hang stammered and answered, avoiding her eyes with some guilty conscience.
However, he was a little excited in his heart unconsciously. This is the first time that my wife took the initiative to ask about him!
Thinking of this, his back straightened involuntarily, as if ‘no matter what you ask, I’ll answer honestly’.
Shen Xin Yan didn’t pay attention to his thoughts, got up and entered the room.
Wei Jun Hang stared blankly at her back. In a moment, his whole body was like an eggplant beaten by frost. He sighed again and touched the end of his nose sullenly.
When Shen Xin Yan came out of the room, what she saw was his listless appearance, stunned, and asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong?”
“No, it’s okay.” Wei Jun Hang replied in a stern voice. Just looking at her eyes with a small grievance that can’t be ignored.
