After rebirth, my wife just wants to be a widow

When Xia Meng came over, Shen Ruoyan was writing furiously in the room.

Lu Yan was about to go to Yizhou. Shen Ruoyan was worried that he would inevitably be unable to do what he wanted because he had lost the memory of being an official in the capital, so he wrote down all the experiences he could remember in his mind about resettling refugees, hoping to help Lu Yan one or two.

Looking back, it was around this time last year that Su Xihe fed Shen Ruoyan the charm medicine. Lu Yan held her in the cold pool for a whole night before removing the medicine from Shen Ruoyan.

Shen Ruoyan recovered, but Lu Yan fell ill.

Seeing the sick Lu Yan, Shen Ruoyan felt really sorry, so she took the initiative to stay and take care of him carefully, and also helped him with some copying work.

During those days, you could often see the cold Mr. Lu leaning on the bedside, holding a heater in his hand, looking at the girl sitting next to the desk. The girl lowered her head, held a pen, and carefully read the words in Lu Yan's mouth. Record the resettlement measures described one by one.

Although at that time, Shen Ruoyan had no good feelings for Lu Yan and was only thinking about how to break off the engagement with him, she was still often amazed by Lu Yan's erudition and talent, so she was very impressed by many details.

Thinking that the many ways to resettle the refugees at that time might be helpful in rescuing Yizhou this time, Shen Ruoyan wrote down everything she could remember.

In addition, Chun Niang is also busy planning how to bring business to Yizhou.

Of course, Shen Ruoyan was embarrassed to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

After sorting out the specific details of the discussions over the past few days, she wrote a lot eloquently. When she was in high spirits, she heard the sound outside the door. Shen Ruoyan immediately put down the pen and put away everything on the table. .

Standing up and deliberately blocking the table, Shen Ruoyan asked Xia Meng who walked in, "What are you doing here?"

Shen Ruoyan's attitude was cold, but Xia Meng pretended not to notice it, put on the posture of a good sister, raised the tray in her hand with a smile, and said, "I'm here to bring you some food."

Realizing that Shen Ruoyan's eyes were on her hands wrapped in gauze, Xia Meng took the initiative to explain: "Hey, I went to my sister's place to say hello just now, and I don't know what I said to make her unhappy. She poured all the hot soup on my hands. .

But it's okay, I can just take care of it by myself for a few days. "

She wanted to pretend to be miserable and gain sympathy, but she didn't expect that Shen Ruoyan would focus her attention elsewhere.

"Sister?" The girl turned her phoenix eyes and asked full of doubts, "How come I didn't know that your sister also lives in our house?"

Xia Meng was a little frustrated, so she had to bite the bullet and said, "It's Sister Nianyun."

When Shen Ruoyan heard this, she could think of Xia Meng calling her sister in front of Liu Nianyun.

Isn't this an intentional attempt to spite my sister-in-law?

If this thing happened to her, Shen Ruoyan would definitely not be able to bear this tone. Pouring Xia Meng with hot soup would be an advantage to her, but her sister-in-law has always been dignified and quiet, so she probably wouldn't be able to do such a thing.

Xia Meng said that the injury on his hand was caused by Liu Nianyun, and there must be an element of exaggeration in it.

Thinking of this, Shen Ruoyan put on a pretty face and corrected her: "My sister-in-law doesn't have any sisters. Since you live in our house, you should follow the rules and call her Young Madam."

Xia Meng was scolded and looked extremely embarrassed.

In order to please Shen Ruoyan, Xia Meng forcefully concealed her thoughts, smiled and agreed, pointing to the snacks on the plate and saying: "I made these snacks for you myself, come and try to see if they suit your taste."

"Can your hands... still make snacks?" Shen Ruoyan asked suspiciously, looking at Xia Meng's hands that were so entangled that only the fingertips were exposed.

I felt more and more that this woman had evil intentions.

Xia Meng also didn't expect that this wealthy young lady was so thoughtful.

This plate of snacks was indeed not made by her own hands. She saw it in the kitchen just now, so she took it out and tried to cover it up with a haha, "I made it before I got burned. Try my skills quickly, you don't know." Whatever you like to eat, just make some hibiscus cakes."

Shen Ruoyan glanced at the pastries on the plate, raised her eyebrows, and picked up a piece of hibiscus pastry from the plate with her slender fingers. However, she did not put it to her mouth, but moved away to reveal the bookcase behind her.

There is also a plate of exquisite snacks placed beside the table.

Shen Ruoyan put the hibiscus pastry in her hand and saw that the two plates of dim sum were exactly the same.

Shen Ruoyan clearly knew what was going on, but she didn't reveal it. As if she had discovered some great secret, she asked Xia Meng: "Hey, it's strange. My maid made this snack for me, how can I mix it with Xia Meng?" Are the snacks you make the same?"

It turned out that Qin'er thought that she was about to go on a long journey and would not be able to see her young lady for a long time, so she had been trying her best to prepare delicious food for Shen Ruoyan in the past few days.

This plate of hibiscus cake was made by Qiner herself.

Thinking that I had already done it anyway, I made a few more and planned to give them to Hemang to try later.

Xia Meng never expected that the snacks she picked up were the ones Qin'er put in the kitchen.

No matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't hold on. Xia Meng stammered: "Haha, maybe I made a mistake somewhere."

"Is she lying, or are you deliberately deceiving me? How about I call someone over and let you confront each other?" Shen Ruoyan did not let her go so easily.

"No, no need to confront." Xia Meng shook his head hurriedly, but still couldn't think of how to explain it. He could only say vaguely, "There must be something wrong. I will go back today, and I will ask you to try again another day. My craft.”

With that said, she picked up the plate and walked away with a long stride, forgetting to maintain her delicate and coquettish demeanor.

After encountering difficulties with the three women in Shen Mansion, Xia Meng didn't stop and decided to change his mind and focus on Shen Ruochuan.

That evening, Shen Ruochuan walked to the study room with his head slouching.

Ever since Xia Meng suddenly appeared, Liu Nianyun, although she didn't make a fuss, had always been very cold towards him. She frowned unconsciously every time she saw Shen Ruochuan and never gave him a good look.

In order not to make his wife angry, Shen Ruochuan slept in the study these days.

On winter nights, everything seemed so bleak.

Suddenly, a long and leisurely sound of pipa floated over from the night.

The voice didn't sound real, as if the woman was emotionally hurt, crying lowly, vague and vague in the darkness, and seemed a bit strange.

Shen Ruochuan's scalp felt numb when he heard it. He firmly grasped the lantern in his hand and looked around carefully.

The sound suddenly disappeared, as if it was just Shen Ruochuan's auditory hallucination.

After confirming that there was nothing, Shen Ruochuan quickened his pace and hurried to the study.
