After rebirth, my wife just wants to be a widow

"Your brother has a simple mind. In order to make the play more realistic, we didn't discuss it with him." Liu Nianyun said very calmly, "Don't worry, your brother is thick-skinned. It won't be a big deal if he, a grown man, gives his father-in-law a few words of reprimand." of."

Shen Ruoyan swallowed the noodles and wanted to tell them that her father was actually acting too.

Knowing that Mr. Li was almost poisoned and killed made Mr. Shen feel frightened.

He also thought that his daughter accidentally bumped into the man in black committing murder. If this incident was known to others, it would definitely lead to a murderous disaster.

There was such a big conflict between Ayan and the Su family today. If he did nothing and happily took his daughter back, people would definitely be suspicious.

So in order to protect Shen Ruoyan, Master Shen deliberately acted out a show, pretending to be angry because his daughter didn't understand etiquette, and punished her to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Just now in the carriage, Mr. Shen was cursing in the air alone and persisted all the way.

Shen Ruoyan and her mother covered their mouths and giggled beside them. When their father was at a loss for words, they reminded him in a low voice what else he could curse.

Considering that there are many people in Shangshu's mansion, besides the aunt, there are other servants, and I don't know if there are spies among them. Of course, the fewer people know about this matter, the better, so Lord Shen specifically told Shen Ruoyan not to disclose this matter. Tell anyone.

After hearing what her sister-in-law said, Shen Ruoyan endured it and did not tell the truth. She just pursed her lips and smiled.

In fact, when her brother came to bring her food, her father should have turned a blind eye.

Shen Ruoyan was also startled by her father's sudden appearance just now. Thinking about it now, maybe her father just wanted to take the opportunity to beat her brother.

After all, my brother is already married, so it's not as easy to make excuses as when I was a kid. I just have to take advantage of an opportunity.

After Shen Ruoyan finished eating, she felt much better.

Qin'er looked at the surrounding environment, frowned and said: "Miss, it's eerie here. Are you afraid of being alone? Let me stay with you tonight."

Shen Ruoyan didn't want Qin'er to suffer with her, "What are you doing with me? Being punished by kneeling is not a good thing. If you don't buy one, get one free."

Qin'er rolled her eyes and came up with a new idea, "Miss, how about you change clothes with me."

"Change clothes?" Shen Ruoyan was stunned, "What are you doing?"

"Miss, you wear my clothes and go out with the young lady. You can go back tonight and have a good sleep. I will kneel down for you. Come back tomorrow morning and take me away. How about that?"

When Qin'er spoke, she couldn't help but be excited.

It is often written in storybooks that the heroine is thrown into prison, and the loyal maid puts on the lady's clothes and suffers the punishment for the lady.

Every time she sees this, Qin'er can't help but shed tears and sigh: What a touching relationship between master and servant.

It's a pity that her daughter has been well-behaved and sensible since she was a child, and has never been punished. Finally, she got the chance today, and Qin'er also wanted to try out the plot in the storybook.

Shen Ruoyan saw what she was thinking, propped up her chin, and reminded helplessly: "Qin'er, you should read less of the storybook in the future."

Suddenly, I discovered that Qin'er also had a taste for acting. Could it be because of her own influence?

Alas, the whole family is a drama queen.

After finally seeing off Liu Nianyun and Qin'er, Shen Ruoyan, who had eaten two late-night snacks, felt dizzy and sleepy. She felt that there should be no more "visitors" at such a late hour, so she dragged a few futons in a row and made It turned into a simple bed, which was quite comfortable to lie on.

But not long after lying down, Shen Ruoyan felt cold all over.

The weather in early winter is not bad when there is sunshine during the day. But at night, the north wind blows in waves, and the cold wind penetrates through the cracks in the window, penetrates into people's skin, and is cold to the bones.

Shen Ruoyan thought that she would feel less cold after sleeping, but maybe she had moved to a different place and couldn't fall asleep. She could only lie on her back on the futon and stare at the roof in a daze.

The ridge of the ancestral hall is higher than that of ordinary houses, and the candlelight is gradually swallowed up by the darkness. Those places where no light shines are like a dark giant beast, silently exuding loneliness, gradually eroding Shen Ruoyan's nerves.

In the empty and quiet night, the chill slowly spread upward from the soles of Shen Ruoyan's feet, and gradually her whole body became extremely cold.

Finally realizing the hard work of kneeling in the ancestral hall, Shen Ruoyan sighed and hugged herself with her backhand, hoping to keep her body warm.

Just when she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard a light knock on the door. Shen Ruoyan was too cold to get up and kept lying in the same position. However, after waiting for a long time, no one came in.

Just when she was wondering if the sound just now was caused by the wind, Shen Ruoyan heard another soft sound.

Turning over, Shen Ruoyan opened the door and saw a neatly folded blanket on the ground.

Shen Ruoyan felt like she had found a treasure. She felt that Qin'er must have brought it to her because she was worried that she would be cold. But why didn't she bring it in and just leave it at the door?

Could it be a plot from another storybook?

Shen Ruoyan didn't have time to think about it, so she quickly shook out the blanket and wrapped it around herself.

Since opening the clothing store, Shen Ruoyan's understanding of various materials has reached a new level. She found that the blanket she was wrapped in was light and thin, and felt very soft to the touch. It should be made from the mountain antelope, which is closest to the skin. A top-quality cashmere blanket woven from a small section of fluff.

The number of mountain antelopes is small, and the down on their bodies is even more precious. Because the output is rare and the craftsmanship is extremely complicated, the price of one tael is equivalent to gold, so this kind of blanket is also called a golden blanket.

Such an expensive blanket was naturally not something their Shangshu Mansion could afford. Shen Ruoyan was a little confused, but she still didn't take the blanket off after all.

Wrapped in this blanket, my body immediately felt warm, and the darkness became less scary.

Lying back on the futon, Shen Ruoyan immediately fell asleep.

No one disturbed her. Shen Ruoyan slept until she woke up naturally the next day, rolled up the blanket and stuffed it under the desk.

She slept well last night and her mind became clearer. While sitting and waiting for her meal, Shen Ruoyan calmed down and thought about the incident where she saw the man in black committing murder yesterday.

I was too nervous at the time to think carefully about it, but now that I think about it, I feel that the man in black looks very familiar.

Could it be someone he has met?

Shen Ruoyan compared the people she knew one by one, and found that everyone was different. Shen Ruoyan didn't even figure out who the man in black was until Qin'er came to deliver food to her.

"Miss, what are you doing? Come and eat."

Qin'er stretched out her hand, waved it in front of Shen Ruoyan, and asked worriedly.

Did the young lady stay alone in the ancestral hall last night and was frightened?
