When Mr. Shen was about to announce the meal, a timid voice came from the door: "Master, Madam, can I eat with you?"

Everyone turned their heads and saw Xia Meng standing with his head lowered and his hands restlessly placed in front of him, as if he mustered up the courage to say what he just said.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Xia Meng raised her head shyly and said pitifully: "I haven't had parents since I was a child. Today I saw everyone sitting together for the reunion dinner, and I felt envious. So..."

At this point, she lowered her head again, fluttering her eyelashes desperately, and after a while she said tremblingly: "So, I wonder if Master and Madam can fulfill my wish to have a reunion dinner with everyone?"

Xia Meng knew that when a wealthy family was dining, according to the rules, aunts and concubines were not allowed to sit at the table and eat together. However, recent events made Xia Meng feel confused and felt that if she put on such a pitiful look, most people would not He would refuse, not to mention the members of the family who are very concerned about face.

Hearing Xia Meng's request, Shen Ruochuan was the first to sit still. She usually deliberately disgusted them, but today, on New Year's Eve, she dared to come out to stir up trouble. It was really intolerable.

Shen Ruochuan slammed the table and opened his mouth to curse.

Originally, Shen Ruochuan still felt a little guilty towards Xia Meng, feeling that he had harmed her because of himself. Ever since he found out that Xia Meng was sent by Taifu Su to trick him, Shen Ruochuan had been holding back a lot of anger and had no way to vent it.

Now that I saw that Xia Meng specially chose this festive day to be a demon, I finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to criticize Xia Meng from beginning to end.

Just as he was about to open his mouth, Liu Nianyun gently pulled the corner of his clothes and signaled him with his eyes to stop talking.

Liu Nianyun adjusted her clothes, as if she didn't see Xia Meng who was still standing at the door, and said to Master Shen and Mrs. Shen: "Don't be angry, Miss Xia has just moved in not long ago, and she doesn't know much about the rules of our house. Hey, this It’s all my fault, I’ll find someone to teach her the rules tomorrow.”

After hearing Liu Nianyun's words, Mrs. Shen smiled heartily and gave her some advice: "Nianyun, I think Granny Liu next to you is an excellent candidate. Why don't you trouble her and teach this girl a good lesson in our Shen Mansion?" Just behave."

Who doesn't know that Granny Liu has a bad mouth? Xia Meng, a woman who loves to put on airs, would be extremely wonderful in the hands of Granny Liu.

"Okay, I'll let Granny Liu go there tomorrow." Liu Nianyun naturally knew what her mother-in-law meant and agreed obediently.

Xia Meng, who was ignored by everyone, stood alone at the door, feeling a little embarrassed when no one paid attention to her.

If ordinary people encountered this kind of situation, they would have felt ashamed and left on their own, but Xia Meng's face was different from ordinary people's.

Seeing that pretending to be pitiful was useless, she repeated her old tricks, bent down, covered her stomach, and shouted in a low voice: "Ouch, my stomach hurts so much."

As he said that, he raised his legs and wanted to step into the house.

No matter how unreasonable the Shen family is, they will not ignore it if something happens to their precious grandson.

Xia Meng's little calculation was loud, but she didn't know that the Shen family had already known her details. When Master Shen saw her holding her stomach, he couldn't help but think of Taifu Su's face, and his beard trembled with anger. , raised his hand to greet the maid, and said angrily: "Hel her down and lock her up..."

Master Shen originally wanted to have Xia Meng locked up, but as he spoke, he remembered that he should pretend not to know, so he said instead: "Let someone take good care of her and don't let her go out and walk around."

Just like that, Xia Meng was dragged back to the house by several maids.

This matter was taken over lightly, and this incident did not affect everyone's good mood. Everyone happily had a reunion dinner.

After the meal, Mrs. Shen helped Mr. Shen, who was red-faced from drinking, back to the house. Liu Nianyun wanted to stay with Shen Ruoyan to watch the New Year, but Shen Ruochuan put his head on Liu Nianyun's shoulder and said coquettishly: "Madam, my head is so dizzy, you Can you rub it for me?"

Liu Nianyun tapped his temple with her finger angrily, and said apologetically to Shen Ruoyan: "Ayan, I'll help your brother back to his room first, and I'll come find you later."

"No need, sister-in-law, I'm going to set off fireworks with Qin'er and the others later." Shen Ruoyan raised her hand, made a hairpin gesture, and winked at Liu Nianyun mischievously. "Just talk to my brother."

Liu Nianyun knew that she was reminding him not to forget the jade hairpin he bought a few days ago, so he did not pretend to be shy and nodded slightly to Shen Ruoyan.

After helping Shen Ruochuan back to the house, Liu Nianyun asked him to sit down on the chair. He raised his head and met Shen Ruochuan's eyes before he spoke.

The man blinked his slightly drunken eyes and looked at himself very seriously. Liu Nianyun couldn't help but blush.

"Sit here and wait, I have something to give you." Liu Nianyun said, turned and walked to the dressing table, and carefully took out the sapphire hairpin that had been prepared for a long time.

The cold jade was a bit chilly in the hand, but it quickly absorbed the warmth of the palm and became warm.

Love is mutual.

In the past, between the two of them, Shen Ruochuan was the fiery one who showed his love boldly, while she was always gentle and quiet, silently accepting Shen Ruochuan's love.

After experiencing Xia Meng, Liu Nianyun finally understood how unfair it was to Shen Ruochuan that he was so tolerant and introverted. When something happened, he would easily get into trouble, push himself into a dead end, and let down his husband. Deep affection for oneself.

"Ruochuan, I..." Liu Nianyun looked at Shen Ruochuan. The man's eyes showed unbreakable love for him.

But before she could finish her words, Shen Ruochuan spread his palms like a magic trick and asked in a proud tone: "Nianyun, what do you think this is?"

In the candlelight, a crystal jade hairpin lay quietly in Shen Ruochuan's hand.

If you look carefully, it's the hairpin that Xia Meng broke.

On the high-quality jadeite, a golden line gracefully goes up, cleverly covering the broken parts. The two different materials of gold and jade are perfectly combined in a unified and harmonious way, as if it should have been designed this way. No flaws can be seen.

Seeing Liu Nianyun staring at the hairpin for a moment, Shen Ruochuan explained obediently: "Nianyun, in order to repair this hairpin, I almost broke my legs. I searched all over the capital for jade repair shops. , I finally found the most powerful master. In order to let him make it before the year before, I ran to his shop every day and watched him put the hairpins together bit by bit.

The old man was very fierce and almost beat me out, but his skills were top-notch and you couldn't find any traces at all. "
