It turned out that Shen Nian had returned.
He had already arrived when Yang Yiyi pressed the porcelain piece against her neck.
But everyone's attention was drawn to Yang Yiyi's actions and they didn't notice him coming back.
He originally wanted to go in directly, but when he heard Xia Tian mocking Yang Yiyi passionately, he stopped.
Suddenly it felt like it had been a long time since I heard her discuss things at length with others, and Shen Nian felt a little nostalgic.
However, when he heard Yang Yiyi questioning Xia Tian, he couldn't help but speak out.
After Shen Nian finished speaking, he strode in.
“Brother Shen, you’re back?” Xia Tian greeted Shen Nian happily when he saw her.
When she was happy, she started calling him "Brother Shen" and forgot to call him "husband" in front of outsiders.
Pursed his lips embarrassedly!
“Yeah, I just came back.” Shen Nian nodded at Xia Tian.
Then he walked forward and bowed to the old lady of the Cui family, the eldest uncle, the eldest aunt and the fifth aunt of the Cui family.
Shen Nian didn’t greet Cui Biyun, but walked over and sat in the seat next to Xia Tian.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Cui Biyun's face.
"Have you just come back from patrolling outside?" asked Cui's uncle.
As for Shen Nian not greeting Cui Bijun, he guessed that he must have heard what Yang Yiyi said just now, and he is probably unhappy now.
Uncle Cui couldn't help sighing in his heart!
We were such good relatives, but in the end, there was a rift between us!
During this period, he heard that Chen Nian had gone to inspect the lower levels. At that time, he thought that his nephew was a good official and knew how to take the suffering of the people to heart.
The teachers and students in their academy had a very high opinion of the governor.
When Cui's uncle saw Shen Nian, his expression eased a lot.
Finally, there was something that made him feel relieved.
“Yes, I just came back today.” Shen Nian replied calmly.
He still didn't know why his grandmother, uncle and aunt came over. He only heard the conversation between Xia Tian and Yang Yiyi at the door just now.
The others are not known yet.
"Uncle, how come you, grandma, and aunt have time to come over?"
When Cui's uncle heard Shen Nian's question, his expression, which had just relaxed, instantly turned gloomy again.
Seeing the expression on Cui's uncle's face, the aunt knew that he couldn't speak, so she answered for him, "We came here today because Xia Xia sent someone to call us. It's about Yi Yi's matter."
The aunt was also afraid that Shen Nian would misunderstand, so she took the initiative to say that it was Xia Tian who asked them to come, and they did not come to the house to cause trouble.
"Yes, I invited my uncle and the others to come." Xia Tian explained to Chen Nian with a smile, "Today, Yang Yiyi, the cousin of the Yang family, came to the mansion. She threatened to die, and she insisted that I give up the position of wife to her.
There was no other way. I was afraid that something might happen to her in the mansion, so I asked my uncle and the others to be witnesses."
Xia Tian explained the whole story in just one sentence.
Shen Nian felt relieved when she heard that no one from the Cui family was involved.
"Xia Xia is troubling the elders."
"It's not a problem. It's all because of Yiyi's ignorance that you are implicated as well." The aunt quickly waved her hand.
To be frank, this matter really can't be blamed on Xia Tian. Which wife would allow you to make trouble in her home?
Of course, it has nothing to do with their Cui family. If Cui Biyun wasn't the daughter of the Cui family, she really wouldn't want to come.
Yang Yiyi watched Shen Nian come in for a long time without even giving her a glance. Tears of grievance welled up in her eyes instantly, "Cousin, don't you even say hello to Yiyi?"
"Miss Yang is so powerful that she even came to my house to show off!" Shen Nian said sarcastically with a cold face.
"Cousin, Yiyi is doing this for you." Yang Yiyi's tears flowed down her face. "How can you say that to me?"
Who were her suicide threats directed at?
Her cousin actually said such words. Where did he put her true feelings?
“Humph! Miss Yang, please call me Lord Shen. I, Shen Nian, can’t bear to be a relative of the Yang family.”
If he hadn't returned in time, he wouldn't have known that someone was so bold as to run to his house and ask to be his legal wife.
He even blatantly wanted to drive his wife away.
Even if Cui Bijun didn't support him behind the scenes, he would still find it hard to believe.
Shen Nian also complained to Cui Bijun, but Cui Bijun had not said a word since Shen Nian came in.
Now, listening to Shen Nian's sarcastic words, he felt a little embarrassed, "Chu Xuan, Yiyi is young and ignorant, don't blame her."
"Then Madam Yang is not young anymore, isn't she ignorant?" Shen Nian asked in a cold voice.
"Chu Xuan, no matter what, I am your aunt!" Cui Bijun's face turned pale and blue after what Shen Nian said.
She thought to herself that she was her aunt after all, but her nephew didn't even give her any face and embarrassed her in front of so many people.
The old lady of the Cui family couldn't stand it anymore. She glared at Cui Biyun, then smiled and said, "Don't blame me, Nian'er. It's your aunt who spoiled Yiyi. That's why she spoke so recklessly. Grandma will definitely scold them when she goes back."
After hearing Mrs. Cui’s plea, Shen Nian stopped mocking her.
But his face still didn't look good.
Seeing the situation, the aunt was afraid that if she continued, the conversation would become more and more outrageous, so she could only interrupt, "Mother, Master, Chu Xuan just came back today. Why don't we go back first and let him have a good rest. He must be exhausted after being away for so many days."
"Yes, yes, why don't we go back first!" Fifth aunt also quickly agreed.
To be honest, it was very uncomfortable for her to sit here.
Looking at Shen Nian's expression, she didn't even recognize Aunt Cui Bijun. There was no point in saying more, so she should go back first.
"Well, let's go!" Cui's uncle stood up first.
The old lady of the Cui family also nodded, thinking about going back first.
Chen Nian was in no mood to keep the guests. To be honest, he was a little tired after coming back today, so he stood up and said, "Grandma, uncle, and two aunts, I will come to your house another day to apologize. I am sorry for causing you trouble."
"Don't be polite with your uncle." Cui's uncle patted his shoulder and paused for a moment before putting his hand down.
Shen Nian felt his uncle's concern, so he softened his tone, "Uncle, I still have some things about Linzhou that I want to ask you about. I'll come to you another day."
"Okay! Uncle is waiting for you." Uncle Cui agreed loudly. The stone pressing on his heart was instantly removed, and he felt much more relaxed.
The distant tone in Shen Nian's words just now made him feel uncomfortable. In addition, he had always felt guilty about this nephew, and always felt that this nephew seemed to not want to recognize them as his uncle.
The fact that Shen Niangang could say this showed that he still valued their uncle's family, and the worries in his heart dissipated a lot.
Xia Tian watched as several people were about to leave, and Shen Nian had no intention of keeping them, so he ordered someone to prepare the carriage first.
But several people ignored the heroine of this incident.
When Yang Yiyi heard that her cousin Shen Nian had returned but didn't get the result she wanted, she naturally disagreed with going back like this.
"I haven't finished yet, you are not allowed to leave." Yang Yiyi ran over suddenly and blocked the crowd.
