Chapter 288 Completely Withdrawing Your Sadness
It was still early when they came out of the Princess's Mansion, and they said they would eat less, but in the end they couldn't resist the enthusiasm and still ate a lot. So the two of them simply planned to walk back to the Shen family from the Princess's Mansion. By the time they got home, they would be hungry and could continue eating.
Halfway through the walk, Xie Hui suddenly remembered, "Manman, do you think I should bring some gifts when I go back?"
"No need. My home is also your home. Why would you bring a gift back to your own home? If you want to bring one, we can just buy some delicious food on the way."
After Shen Yuan finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xie Hui and said, "Brother Youqi, are you a little nervous?"
"This isn't your first time coming to my house, why are you so nervous?"
Xie Hui smiled and said, "When I went there before, I was not a son-in-law yet. Today I am a new son-in-law meeting his father-in-law, so I am naturally nervous."
"Don't be nervous. I'm not nervous meeting my parents-in-law today."
The two of them walked hand in hand on the road. Shen Yuan saw some snacks on the roadside and wanted to buy some. By the time they arrived at Shen's house, it was dark and they were hungry. Xie Hui's hands were full. Everything was just right.
The doorman was shocked when he saw Shen Yuan first. Her daughter went back to her parents' home on the second night after her wedding. Her daughter must have suffered a great injustice!
"Miss, your aunt is back too?"
"Well, come back for dinner."
"Eat? Eat, eat, eat, eat."
Shen Yuan lowered her head and took out a bag from the paper bag in Xie Hui's hand. She bought so much that she didn't even know what was in them, but they were all delicious.
"I bought this on the road. Take it and eat it."
"Thank you, young lady! Thank you, aunt too."
Today, the Shen family had not thought that Shen Yuan would come back. It was time for the family to have dinner. Shen Si, Madam Shen, Shen Xi and Lu Ne were all still here. It should have been a lively dinner for the whole family, but without Shen Yuan, the family found the dinner boring. Even Sui Sui asked twice where his aunt had gone when he sat down.
"Dad! I'm back! Grandma, brother, sister-in-law, sister, brother-in-law, uncle and aunt! How are you? Did you miss me?"
"Why are you back at this time, kid?"
"Why? You don't welcome me back."
"I didn't say that. Come and sit down. Come and sit down when you have a period."
The restaurant, which was dull just now, suddenly became lively again.
Shen Yuan sat next to her father and took a look at the dishes on the table. She saw that they were hardly touched and knew what was going on.
"I told you that this family can't do without me. Dad, are you missing me, your daughter, so much?" Shen Yuan said as she reached out to pick up some food for her father and also picked up a piece of food for her grandmother.
"Eat, eat. I also bought some bacon on the way. I'll have someone cut it up and add it to the dishes."
Shen Su asked the two people: "Where are you from?"
"I'm from the Princess's Mansion. Dad, Grandma, from now on, Xie and I won't cook at home. Can we just come back for dinner every day?"
Madam Shen deliberately said, "No, you're married and you still go home every day to eat for free?"
Shen Si immediately dismantled his mother's table: "Manman, don't listen to your grandmother. When you were not back just now, your grandmother couldn't eat a single bite of rice. Now that you are back, she can even eat braised pork."
"Haha, I knew my grandmother couldn't bear to part with me, but she was too embarrassed to say it."
The old lady couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Let's eat, really."
"Grandma eats a piece of braised pork."
"Hahaha……"
This time everyone couldn't help laughing, and the old lady blushed. When she finished her meal and stood up, she couldn't help but hit her eldest son.
Shen Yuan said that after the meal, let Xie Hui offer tea to everyone. Since tea is being offered, the elders should show some respect. Everyone got up and went back to their rooms to pack red envelopes.
Shen Yuan also had two thick red envelopes in her pocket today. She said to Xie Hui, "We can count the banknotes when we go home tonight."
Xie Hui offered tea to everyone, and when it was Shen Su's turn, Shen Su straightened his clothes and raised his back, just to hear Xie Hui say that sentence -
"Brother, please have some tea."
"Not listening? Call me again."
Shen Yuan leaned close to Shen Su's ear and said, "Brother! Did you hear me this time?"
"Oh my, you're just getting married and you're already turning your back on me?"
But after they finished their quarrel, Xie Hui politely called Shen Su "Brother" again.
It was fine for Shen Su and He Ying, after all they were about the same age, so calling them brother and sister-in-law was fine. But when it was Shen Xi's turn, it was different. Even if she could thank him for calling her "sister", Shen Xi was too embarrassed to respond.
So when she saw Xie Hui coming over, she quickly asked Lu Ne to stuff the red envelope into Xie Hui's hand, and then said, "I don't need to call."
Lu Ne followed closely, "Me too."
"Sister, brother-in-law, I called for him."
"Sui Sui, call me uncle." He Ying held Sui Sui in her arms and taught him how to call people.
"Uncle-in-law!"
Although Xie Hui doesn't get along with children much, he still likes Shuenshun very much, and Shuenshun looks like Manman in his eyes and eyebrows.
"Be good, Sui Sui." Xie Hui touched his head and gave Sui Sui the jade pendant he was wearing.
Even though Little Mianhua is already asleep, there is no need to wake the child up at this time. They will come back anyway, so one day doesn't matter.
The two of them did not stay at home that night. Before going back, Shen Yuan took Xie Hui to burn incense for his mother, offer her tea, and talk to her for a long time.
Before leaving, Shen Yun said to his daughter, "Next time you come back, let someone know in advance so that we can ask the kitchen to cook more dishes."
"I just want to give you a surprise today."
Shen Yun smiled and said, "If you had told Dad in the afternoon, Dad would have felt happy from that afternoon onwards."
"Okay, then I will tell Dad in advance next time."
After returning home and washing up in the evening, Shen Yuan couldn't wait to take out the red envelopes he got today and count them, but before he could touch them, he was picked up by Xie Hui.
"What are you doing? I haven't even counted the money yet!"
"I'm going to study the book that Manman is reading today...Is that the way it goes?"
"no!"
"Is that so?"
…
I don't know how much time passed, so long that the moon hid in the clouds. Xie Hui asked the person in his arms: "Are you still counting the banknotes? I'll get them for you."
"Count your farts! Go to sleep."
Shen Yuan had just closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep when he suddenly thought of something and woke up.
She reached out and pinched Xie Hui's face, "Will I get pregnant soon?"
"will not."
The two had talked about this before, and both felt that they didn't want to have a child right after getting married, but Shen Yuan had forgotten about it. She just remembered that if she and Xie Hui were doing this... they could get pregnant.
"I asked the imperial physician to prescribe medicine, don't worry."
"That medicine, it won't have any effect on your body, right? If it does, then don't take it."
Xie Hui hugged the person in his arms tightly, their skin touching, Shen Yuan could feel it clearly...
“Do you think it has any impact?”
"That's not what I'm talking about! As the saying goes, every medicine is poisonous. I'm not afraid that something bad will happen to you after taking it."
"Don't worry, there is none. The imperial physician eats it himself."
"Oh, then I feel relieved."
