Reborn Evil Mother-in-law

Shen Xin Yan never thought that her husband would give her such a “big surprise”.

She stared silently at the husband who came triumphantly to ask for credit, and then her eyes slowly turned to the little boy who was walking into the house. After a long time, she sighed inaudibly.

If she hadn’t experienced the previous life, she would have been ecstatic. However, after experiencing life and death, she found that she could no longer find a way to get along with her son. After all, those hurts happened. She could convince herself to forget about the people and things around her, but this is different. Because this is the son she once devoted herself to caring for.

In all honesty, she was even a little afraid to have more contact with her son. She was afraid that she would inadvertently invest too much as in her previous life. She was even more afraid that she would be dominated by the hatred in her previous life and do something that she would regret to this young son.

It can’t be near. It can’t be farther. Therefore, it is better to keep a distance that is not far or near and let her continue to perform her mother’s duty.

“Madam, are you, are you unhappy?” Seeing her staring at him without saying a word, Wei Jun Hang was a little confused.

“…no, I’m very happy. Thank you, Husband!”  After all, he’s always her bloodline. Could it be that she can still avoid seeing him?

“Mother!” Wei Cheng Lin didn’t know that in this short time, his mother had already experienced a lot of struggle. After coming up to greet her, he asked worriedly, “Is mother in good health? Have you asked a doctor for a diagnosis?”

After being stunned for a while, Shen Xin Yan quickly glanced at Wei Jun Hang, who was embarrassed and begging for mercy. A smile appeared on her lips unconsciously.

“Mother is fine now. Why don’t you wipe the sweat? The weather is getting colder now. You can’t just ignore it just because you are young and healthy.” Seeing that her son’s temples were wet, she habitually pulled him closer and gently wipe the sweat off him.

Wei Cheng Lin felt uncomfortable for a moment. But when he leaned into a soft and fragrant embrace, the whole person relaxed involuntarily. He even unconsciously cuddled his mother.

When Shen Xin Yan noticed his closeness, she was stunned. She lowered her eyes to hide the complexities in her eyes, carefully cleaned his hands for him, and then ordered Chun Liu to take her daughter and tell Xia He to pass the meal.

Seeing the mother and son hug each other affectionately, Wei Jun Hang cracked his mouth and smiled with joy.

It seems that he made the right move.

During lunch that day, the Fu Ning Courtyard changed from its usual “no speaking during the meal”. From time to time, men’s hearty voices, children’s soft coquettish voices, and woman’s helpless reprimands were heard outside the door. The maids looked at each other and smiled. The colour of joy between their brows was very strong.

“Mother, don’t you want radishes?” Xiao Ying Zhi acted coquettishly at her mother. Seeing her mother’s stern face, she knew her mother wouldn’t. So she turned around and begged her father, “Father—” A soft, waxy and sweet voice called. As soon as it sounded, the unscrupulous father surrendered: “Okay, no radish, no radish.”

“Sir!” Shen Xin Yan glared at someone who was holding his chopsticks into her daughter’s bowl, intending to get rid of the nasty radish for her.

Wei Jun Hang was stared at by her. His hands turned stiffly. He picked up a piece of chicken and threw it into his son’s bowl, and said dryly, “Son, eat more.”

“Well, thank you, father!” A smile flashed in Wei Cheng Lin’s eyes. Looking at his mother with a sullen face and at his younger sister, who pouted and poked at the radish with an aggrieved expression, his smile couldn’t help but grow a little more.

“Children can’t be picky eaters. Otherwise, they won’t grow taller in the future.” The little girl was too picky. Shen Xin Yan had to scare her.

“Liar, the eldest uncle doesn’t eat radishes. But he is very tall!” The little girl retorted plausibly.

Shen Xin Yan was choked by her, and rubbed her forehead with a headache: “If your uncle ate radishes back then, he might have grown taller.”

“I only need to be as tall as uncle…” The little girl muttered in dissatisfaction.

“Ying er is a woman. My eldest uncle is a man. So my eldest uncle can grow as tall as he is without eating radishes, but Ying er can’t. Look, my brother also wants to eat radishes.” Wei Cheng Lin put down his silver chopsticks, and explained to his sister seriously.     

The little girl looked into his bowl and saw that there was a large piece of radish in it. She could only reluctantly say: “Okay, I’ll just eat it.”

Seeing that my sister ate it honestly, Wei Cheng Lin smiled slightly. He reached out and rubbed the little girl’s head to show her compliment.

Shen Xin Yan looked at such a scene with a bit of a daze.

Maybe it’s too long ago, so far away that she can’t remember the time when her two children were so affectionate.

She hurriedly lowered her eyes to hide her reddish eyes. But in her mind, the scenes of her son protecting Zhou Wan Ning and scolding her daughter again and again in her previous life always appeared.

“Madam, try this. It tastes pretty good.” A chopstick was suddenly stuffed into the bowl. She looked up subconsciously and saw Wei Jun Hang’s slightly flattering face.

She pursed her lips. After a while, she said softly, “Thank you, husband./f”

Wei Jun Hang giggled a few times. He prepared dishes for her diligently, making Shen Xin Yan unable to laugh or cry.

“Sir, enough is enough. You have to eat more yourself.” The husband and wife, you are holding this for me, I am holding that for you. Xiao Ying Zhi, who is pulling the bowl on the side, rolls her eyes a few times. She found it interesting, and also imitated his father’s appearance and poked a piece of radish into his mother’s bowl, and said in a milky voice: “Mother, you eat.” 

 In the end, she poked another piece and sent it into his brother’s bowl: “Brother, you also eat.”

“Daddy eats too!” Of course, the little girl wouldn’t miss her daddy who loved her.

Seeing that the plate with the radishes was empty, the little girl covered her mouth and snickered happily.

How could Shen Xin Yan not see the little girl’s idea?  Pinching her nose amusingly: “Little villain, you have the most mischievous ideas!”

The little girl giggled smugly, making everyone present amused.

The family of four had a happy lunch and then went to the garden to relax. Seeing that the daughter’s head was little by little down, and her big eyes were about to close, Shen Xin Yan ordered Mama Sun to carry the little girl back to the room.

“Lin er, you too go back to the room and sleep for a while, so that you will have the energy to continue the class in the afternoon.” Then, she took the cloak handed over by Chun Liu and tied it to her son herself.

“Yes. Mother. Father. The child retires.” Wei Cheng Lin nodded and bowed before leaving.

“This child has such a straight-forward temperament. I don’t have…” The prince on the side whispered. He swallowed the unfinished words when he received a look of resentment from his wife.

The husband and wife went back to the house. Shen Xin Yan hesitated for a moment and was about to explain to him about the previous incident, but Wei Jun Hang took the lead in grabbing the words: “Well, ma’am, it’s my fault this morning. I shouldn’t lose my temper to you casually.”

Shen Xin Yan was stunned. After a while, she said softly: “Why is it your fault? It’s my lack of thoughtfulness in doing things.”

“No, no, no, it’s my fault. No matter what, I can’t just lose my temper. “Wei Jun Hang shook his head like a rattle.

Shen Xin Yan stared at him for a moment and said with an expression: “Forget it. Since the matter has passed, let’s not talk about it anymore! It’s just that you and I are husband and wife. Husband and wife are one body. I’m not talented, but I would like to do my best to share your worries.”

Wei Jun Hang opened his mouth in surprise, but his heart was bubbling with beauty.

Madam said husband and wife are one body!

The more he thinks about it, the more beautiful it becomes. The more he thinks about it, the bigger his smile is. In the end, that extremely bright smile almost blinds other people’s eyes.

Shen Xin Yan was a little embarrassed by his smile: “What are you laughing at? You are not allowed to laugh!”

“Okay, don’t laugh, don’t laugh anymore.” Although the smile on his face was reluctantly suppressed, the light in his eyes shone brightly, tightly locking her face.

“You, I’ll be annoyed if you do this again!” His gaze was so scorching that Shen Xin Yan couldn’t bear it.

“Don’t be annoyed. Don’t be annoyed. I, I…” Hearing that she was going to be annoyed, Wei Jun Hang became anxious. He immediately changed the subject, “I’m not short of silver taels now. The one hundred taels before were to lend it to someone else for an emergency.”

Shen Xin Yan was indeed bypassed by him. She just nodded after listening and didn’t ask to who he lent the money.

On the other hand, Wei Jun Hang touched his nose a little embarrassedly and explained, “I lent it to Yan He Nian, the third young master of the Duke of Zheng’s mansion.”

Shen Xin Yan was really surprised: “You have a relationship with the third young master Yan?”

Why didn’t she know that my husband has a friendship with the future black-faced Hade?

“I can’t say that we have any friendship. We just drank wine together. I saw that he was a little tight on money, so I lent him.” Wei Jun Hang answered vaguely, but he was a little uneasy in his heart, for fear that his wife would ask about the reason why Yan He Nian borrowed money.

“That’s how it is.” Fortunately, Shen Xin Yan didn’t intend to pursue it. She just nodded slightly, as if thinking of something, and shook her head, “I’m also confused. You can still buy a jade pendant for Ying er. It doesn’t look like you’re short of money.”

Wei Jun Hang stammered: “Next time, I will buy you jewellery from Linglong Pavilion, okay?”

Seeing that his wife was still smiling, he hurriedly said, “I will also buy you a dress from Nishang Xuan. Just buy the most beautiful, one-of-a-kind ones! I will also buy some of the new dim sums from Bai Wei Lou for you. If you like it, I will find a way to invite the chef back…”

Hearing this, Shen Xin Yan couldn’t hold her face any longer, and gave him an angry look: “You think I’m the one with shallow eyelids? I don’t like those jewellery and dresses. Besides, you’re not afraid to blow the cowhide. Who is the owner of Bai Wei Lou? You also need to touch their chef!”

Wei Jun Hang felt relieved by her anger, and then looked at his wife’s moist black eyes and slightly pouted mouth. She looks so cute!

He scratched the back of his head humbly and said with a little smugness: “Others are helpless, but they don’t include me. Ning Wang owes me a huge favour. Not to mention that I just want a cook. Even if I want his heart and soul, he has to offer it obediently.” 

The word ‘Ning Wang’ came into her ears. Shen Xin Yan frowned subconsciously. Don’t blame her for not wanting to hear about Ning Wang. This person was a famous Hua Hua Tai Sui1 in the capital. Taking a concubine is as common as eating. No one’s wife would want her husband to mix with him.

On the other hand, Wei Jun Hang was still ignorant.

“…Ning Wang is so obsessed. How can he still be vigilant? Even the soul was almost hooked by the woman. If it wasn’t for me to be alert, I noticed the woman’s origin early in the morning and have taken precautions. Maybe the next morning, the one who was thrown on the street will be Ning Wang.  Such a great kindness, you say that fellow…”

“You and Ning Wang go to that kind of place to drink?” The triumphant voice came to an abrupt end.

It is an idiom. It means officials and local tyrants who dress gorgeously, do not do business, and only concentrate on eating, drinking and having fun. Or a playboy.
