There’s a Beauty [Ancient Wear Modern]

Chapter 35: A little superstition

Views:

That night, the flower arrangement class that Shen Yuhan was taking became a hot topic because the mistress was chased by the original wife and beaten into the police station. After Shan Qihuan found out, he didn't let him go to class the next day. It was estimated that the matter had not been settled yet, and there might be social news reporters waiting outside for interviews. The cooking class in the afternoon was also cancelled for him. It was cold and he had to touch water. He couldn't do that if he caught a cold.

Shen Yuhan watched TV at home, taught himself modern common sense, wrote and drew, and played chess with himself. He lived a fulfilling life.

He also asked the cleaning lady to tidy up the sunroom on the first floor and move the flower pots that could be moved, so as to free up a large space that could be used for leisure and entertainment. This was an idea he came to after observing the leisure area of Shan Qihuan's company yesterday.

Aunt Wang said that the sunroom had been idle for a long time, with only some flowers planted in it, and Mr. Shan had never thought of using it for other purposes. Now that it is being used, the home has become more lively.

Shen Yuhan is now gradually understanding Shan Qihuan's temper. Shan Qihuan won't care what he does at home, but he might get angry if he goes out and meets some random people.

He definitely won't care if you build a glass house at home.

Shen Yuhan was very satisfied with his masterpiece. Now all he needed to do was buy a low coffee table and a few cushions. He could then enjoy the night view of Jiangcheng from here in the winter.

I don't know if it will snow in Jiangcheng this winter. In Qi, there is thick snow every winter. The Shen family holds a snow-viewing banquet every year. He also invites a few friends to the courtyard to make tea and eat snacks. Life is very comfortable.

Looking at the equally blue sky, Shen Yuhan couldn't help but sigh. Everything had to start all over again.

If all goes well, maybe we can invite her husband's friends to come over and have a chat.

In the afternoon, Shen Yuhan put on the suit that Shan Qihuan chose for him, and then put on a thick coat and went out. He first went to the company to meet up with Shan Qihuan, and then the two of them went to the venue of the banquet.

The car has heating just like the indoors. Shen Yuhan didn't actually feel how cold it was this winter. It's amazing that modern people can even install heating in their cars. It's really amazing.

Shan Qihuan came out of the company. He felt a chill when he got into the car and quickly closed the door to prevent the cold air outside from getting in.

"The weather is getting colder and colder. It will drop to zero degrees tomorrow, but it won't snow." He was wearing a suit inside and a coat outside. Since he was taller than Shen Yuhan, the coat looked warmer.

"Will I be able to see snow this year?" Shen Yuhan handed him her hand warmer, "Hubby, warm your hands."

Shan Qihuan took his hand warmer and it was indeed quite warm: "It should be OK. It was off last November, and it should be soon this year."

"I want to see snow." Shen Yuhan looked out the window, full of anticipation. He liked the snowy winter.

"What did you do at home today?" Shen Yuhan is really obedient now. He no longer contacts those bad friends. As long as he doesn't have classes, he stays at home every day. Shan Qihuan always wonders if he will get sick from being bored at home.

Shen Yuhan told him about how she organized the sun room: "Now we just need a coffee table and some cushions. We can use it to entertain guests, and we can also play chess there on weekends."

"Okay, we'll go pick one out later." Shan Qihuan was surprised that he had to tinker with these things at home. He originally wanted to find a designer to come to his house, which would be faster, but seeing that Shen Yuhan seemed busy and happy, he just let him do it. It's just a sunroom. If he's not satisfied, he can just tear it down and rebuild it.

"When are you free? After we finish buying, can we invite Brother Wen Yan and the others to our house for tea? It would be perfect if it snows, and we can play while enjoying the snow." Shen Yuhan excitedly told Shan Qihuan about his plan.

Shan Qihuan explained his plan: "I have to go on a business trip this weekend, so I have to wait until next week. You can check out the styles you like online first, and then go to the offline store to buy them later."

When I heard that he was going on a business trip, I thought of the last time I had to take a plane for more than ten hours to go to the United States: "Are you going abroad again?"

Shan Qihuan said, "I'm not going out. I'm going to the capital this time." He didn't want to spoil Shen Yuhan's fun, "You can invite them over to play after you come back."

The capital of China

There was a hint of longing in Shen Yuhan's eyes. He had recently learned through self-study how many provinces there were in the country, and knowing the capital was equivalent to when he lived in Beijing.

I haven't been there yet, so I don't know what it's like.

"How many days will you be gone this time?"

"Four days, attending an important national chamber of commerce, then meeting with several heads of cooperative enterprises, and then having dinner with friends over there." Shan Qihuan explained in detail.

"The schedule is so full." Shen Yuhan was a little reluctant to let her husband leave home. It was cold sleeping alone in winter.

Shen Yuhan asked him about every detail, no matter how he went there and how he came back. It was rare for someone to care about him like this, and Shan Qihuan also answered him patiently. After his hands were warmed up, Shan Qihuan returned the hand warmer to Shen Yuhan.

There was a bit of traffic on the road, and it took an hour to get to the mansion owned by Mr. Qi.

Before getting off the car, Shen Yuhan asked Shan Qihuan if he could take the hand warmer with him, but Shan Qihuan said no.

When in Qi State, everyone could bring a hand warmer.

However, after Shan Qihuan brought Shen Yuhan into the house, he found that the indoor heating was very sufficient. Even after taking off their coats, they were not cold, but even a little hot.

There was no familiar face around, so Shen Yuhan stayed close to her husband, holding his hand for fear of getting lost.

It was my first time attending a modern banquet and I was a little nervous.

Shan Qihuan looked up at Shen Yuhan, who was very clingy, but he did not let go of Shen Yuhan's hand and took him to see Mr. Qi first.

"Let's go, let's go meet the owner first."

As soon as Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan arrived, they attracted a lot of people's attention. Some people from the third branch of the Shan family had already come, and Shan Qiyun was among them.

However, Shan Qihuan didn't even glance at them. He just felt that the Qi family was not picky about food, whether it was sweet or salty, and they dared to invite anyone.

The banquet was filled with beautiful women in elegant clothes, even more luxurious and gorgeous than the ones that Shen Yuhan saw on her wedding day. Although they were all guests, everyone had their own thoughts, and it was very necessary for them to outshine the others at the venue.

Today, Shen Yuhan became the subject of discussion just by standing next to Shan Qihuan. Most people were asking who he was

The one who was asked the most was Shan Qiyun. He smiled stiffly and replied that this was his brother's new bride.

After Shen Yuhan discarded his previous tasteless dressing style, he seemed like a different person. Shan Qiyun felt that the current Shen Yuhan was something he had never seen before. It was Shan Qihuan who made him like this. He became dazzling and eye-catching, and became the kind of person that Shan Qiyun would appreciate. Even his appearance alone attracted his attention.

If he had agreed to Shen Yuhan's pursuit, and if he had asked him to change, he would definitely have changed, but now he felt a little regretful. Forget it, he didn't want to be involved with Shen Yuhan anymore, so he shouldn't pay attention to him.

The brief commotion at the banquet intensified after Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan went upstairs, and the discussion became louder.

Everyone knows that Shan Qihuan married a man, but no one expected that he would bring his child abroad. China has passed the same-sex marriage law, but very few people dare to bring their children abroad. Of course, there are not many people who marry men. The last one who made a sensation was Jiang Ruolin, the grandson of the Jiang family. However, that couple is relatively low-key and rarely appear in public.

Shan Qihuan suddenly acted in a high-profile manner, and everyone would ask one more question. This gave the Shan family members present an opportunity to start a conversation with others, which was a good deal for them.

However, no one knows the origin of the man Shan Qihuan married. He does have a handsome face that is unforgettable, but does he have a decent family background

After asking around with several branches of the Shan family, it was discovered that Shan Qihuan's significant other did not have any family background. He was the only grandson of a deceased good friend of Shan Tianfeng, who had not even graduated from college. So there was no need to consider making friends with him. Apart from those who wanted to cooperate with Shan Qihuan, everyone else gave up the idea. It was a bit boring.

The second wife of the Shan family couldn't help but sneer after hearing this. She still remembered the last time Shen Yuhan ridiculed her as a concubine. In order to highlight her own son, she was of course happy to step on Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan. Anyway, Shan Qihuan no longer had the opportunity to compete with them to become the son-in-law of the Qi family.

Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan, who became the center of discussion, met Mr. Qi chatting with others in the lounge on the second floor.

They unexpectedly met an acquaintance, Jiang Ruolin, who came instead of Grandpa Jiang. Grandpa Qi knew them, so he asked the young people to chat together and asked his grandson Qi Mingjie to entertain Shan Qihuan and others.

Qi Mingjie is actually not good at business. He was forced into it. His parents are not in good health, his sister is younger than him and has not graduated from college yet, and she has no talent for business.

Old Master Qi asked him to receive Shan Qihuan and Jiang Ruolin because he really wanted to pave the way for him. Shan Qihuan is talented and experienced, and can give Qi Mingjie a lot of help. It's just that the Shan family is complicated, with many children, many of whom are outstanding, so he is not very noticeable. However, he is pleasing to Old Master Qi. Jiang Ruolin is also a well-behaved person with good character, so he is suitable to be a friend. In short, Qi Mingjie will gain more benefits than disadvantages by interacting with them.

Qi Mingjie also understood what his grandfather meant. After leaving the rest area, he did not plan to let him meet up with his friends, so he took Shan Qihuan and his wife and Jiang Ruolin downstairs to rest. He was of the same age as the two of them. He had always been obsessed with his hobbies, but now he was forced to come back and inherit the family business, and he felt helpless.

Qi Mingjie and Jiang Ruolin were more familiar with each other. They walked in front and talked, while Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan followed behind them. After he came here, he rarely spoke and was extremely quiet.

The two had not eaten anything before coming, and Shan Qihuan asked him if he was hungry.

Shen Yuhan shook his head: "Not very hungry." He whispered to Shan Qihuan, "You usually don't eat enough at banquets."

"That's right. If nothing else, we can leave early. Is there anything you want to eat? We can go out to eat later."

Shen Yuhan suddenly remembered that one winter he followed his grandmother to attend a banquet for his sister who was marrying into the royal palace. The banquet was attended by dignitaries and he didn't eat much because he had to hold the food. When he came back, it was already dark. His grandmother took him to an old couple's wonton stall to eat wontons. He was really hungry that time and he ate a whole bowl. The wontons with sesame oil were really delicious. Now he misses that taste very much. His grandmother was always different from other grandmothers. She didn't like to hold the food. She only had one hobby, which was to crave all kinds of delicious food. At that time, his grandmother also told him not to let his father know that she was eating wontons outside.

He missed his grandmother.

Then he said to Shan Qihuan: "I want to eat wontons."

"Okay, we'll stay a little longer." Shan Qihuan hadn't planned to stay for long. He came here just to go through the motions, show his face, greet Mr. Qi, and then say a few words to a few shopping mall bosses he usually had dealings with.

As soon as he went downstairs, someone came to greet Shan Qihuan. Shan Qihuan turned his head and said to Shen Yuhan, "Go sit on the sofa for a while. I'll come to find you after I finish talking to them."

Shen Yuhan glanced at the sofa he pointed to. There were only two beautiful women sitting there chatting. He nodded and walked over. After seeing him walk over, Shan Qihuan picked up a cocktail and started chatting with a certain boss whom he had ignored.

The Qi family's banquet was different from their wedding banquet. It was a self-service banquet and all guests could move around freely. The food was placed on the long table. If they wanted to drink or eat something, they could just pick up the plate and take it themselves.

But these banquets are social occasions and no one will focus on eating.

Shen Yuhan chose a seat by the side and sat down. He was unfamiliar with everything here and did not take any drinks or food.

Shen Yuhan didn't need to socialize with others. He picked up a book or magazine from the newspaper rack and started reading. He was absorbing modern knowledge. What he needed now was a lot of reading. No matter what he saw, as long as he was interested, he would read it.

As soon as he sat down, the two women sitting on the sofa lowered their voices.

The two ladies suddenly became quiet, took out their mobile phones from their handbags and typed something. After a while, Qi Mingqing, the second daughter of the Qi family and one of the hosts of the banquet, broke away from the circle of noble ladies and walked over.

She sat down in front of Shen Yuhan: "Are you the Shen Yuhan who had an argument with Huang Yingxuan last time?"

Shen Yuhan sat upright with a magazine in his hand. When he looked up, he saw Qi Mingqing and several women who suddenly gathered around him.

Qi Mingqing was dressed like a little princess today, wearing a white one-shoulder tight evening dress that slightly revealed her shoulders. The hem of the dress only reached her thighs. Shen Yuhan was already accustomed to the revealing clothing of modern women.

Shen Yuhan didn't know who pushed him into the water, but he knew it was a woman.

He didn't know Qi Mingqing and didn't know who she was, but out of respect for her, he closed the magazine and put it back where it belonged.

This woman is popular, and Shen Yuhan can guess that her identity must be extraordinary. She should be one of the hosts of the banquet. He has to be careful with his words and not cause trouble for his husband.

He asked the girl with an oval face and a calculating look in her eyes, "What can I do for you?"

Qi Mingqing was very friendly: "Huang Yingxuan said she wanted to invite you to the reception room inside to talk. She wanted to apologize to you."

But Shen Yuhan thought that these were tricks that even the concubines in the harem would not bother to play, so how could he possibly agree to them? Besides, he was a man now, and a married man, so it was impossible for him to be alone with a woman.

This woman was clearly trying to play a trick on him. Perhaps she had some grudge against "Shen Yuhan"

He declined bluntly: "A man and a woman alone in the same room may easily cause misunderstandings. If Miss Huang is willing to reconcile with me, why don't you come out and talk to me face to face? You can also be a witness."

Qi Mingqing was slightly stunned. Every word Shen Yuhan said sounded reasonable. He was not at all like the foul-mouthed hooligan Huang Yingxuan described. She also said that he wanted to snatch Shan Qiyun from her.

"It seems there's nothing wrong with what you said. Okay, I'll call her out." Qi Mingqing was actually persuaded by Shen Yuhan.

The main thing is that Shen Yuhan's sitting posture is more standard than hers. After he put down the magazine, he put his left hand with a ring on it on his right hand, with his back straight. He didn't look around when he spoke, and his words were full of respect. She couldn't say a single harsh word. What's more, his attitude was upright and sincere, and his voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for those who wanted to listen to gossip to hear it.

Will he be a powerful character

Huang Yingxuan was called out of the room by her phone call. Originally, Huang Yingxuan had her own plans and had already made up her mind to have another fight with Shen Yuhan.

However, Shen Yuhan did not rush in to battle with her, which made her a little disappointed. Did he change his tactics

Shen Yuhan did not change his tactics, he just changed his soul.

Compared with dealing with modern technological products, he is more comfortable handling interpersonal matters.

Huang Yingxuan is not as pretty as Qi Mingqing. She looks more like a beautiful girl from a small family. Shen Yuhan has met many women of the same type. Generally, such women tend to hold grudges and have a bad temper.

Seeing Shen Yuhan, who didn't dye her hair or wear fancy clothes, Huang Yingxuan said quickly, "Shen Yuhan, you actually dared to come to the party."

Shen Yuhan was not afraid of losing, so he raised his chin and said slowly, "If you dare to come, why shouldn't I?"

Huang Yingxuan realized that she was not as powerful as Shen Yuhan: "Mingqing and I are friends, why can't I come?"

Shen Yuhan suddenly chuckled, confirmed Qi Mingqing's identity, and looked at Qi Mingqing: "Ms. Qi, I just discussed the reconciliation with Miss Huang for your sake, but Miss Huang obviously didn't mean to do so."

Qi Mingqing didn't expect to get into trouble. Now she had to act as the middleman in the reconciliation. It was quite awkward. In fact, she just wanted to watch the fun and had no intention of standing up for Shen Yuhan.

It was really hard to get off the tiger. She didn't know that Shen Yuhan and Miss Huang had a holiday. It seemed that they were at the Shan family's banquet at that time? In order to compete for Shan Qiyun's attention.

Qi Mingqing didn't want to lose face for Huang Yingxuan: "Xuan, how about you apologize to Shen Yuhan?"

Huang Yingxuan raised her voice and said, "Why should I apologize? He was the one who scolded me first!"

Shen Yuhan didn't look at Huang Yingxuan, but just lowered his head slightly and turned the diamond ring on his ring finger, and said calmly: "But it was me who fell into the water, and I almost died. A life and an apology, which one do you choose?"

He had no idea what the argument was about, but it was a fact that Huang Yingxuan killed "Shen Yuhan".

What he said was factual. The crowd who were watching the fun actually wanted to stand on his side. The way they looked at Huang Yingxuan was different. If it was just an ordinary quarrel, it would be fine, but now it involves someone's life. Wouldn't Huang Yingxuan have to bear a vicious name in the future

Shen Yuhan put Huang Yingxuan on the fire with just one sentence!

She can apologize or not, Shen Yuhan is definitely not the one who suffers. He is the victim and deserves sympathy from others.

So, he had played tricks at banquets many times and was adept at handling them.

As long as he is in the right, no one can say he is wrong. Besides, she wants to live a good life with her husband now, and she doesn't want to get involved too much in the past disputes and grudges of "Shen Yuhan".

Huang Yingxuan was stared at by others. No matter how stupid she was, she knew that she had to apologize today. Qi Mingqing was also waiting for her and gave her a look. After all, they were just fake sisters. She had to give up at the critical moment.

"Okay, I apologize to you. I shouldn't have pushed you into this. I'm sorry." Huang Yingxuan was so angry that she apologized, but she also deliberately provoked Shen Yuhan, "But you can't be with Brother Qiyun. I still have a chance, but you don't."

Oh no!

In addition to this, there were other gossips that made the eyes of the audience around light up.

Isn’t Shan Qiyun from the third branch of the Shan family

This Shen Yuhan came here with the main wife's son Shan Qihuan.

The Shan family is indeed unusual. It’s interesting that the elder brother’s marriage partner likes the younger brother.

Shen Yuhan's attitude at this time was completely opposite to what everyone imagined. Instead of getting angry, he said, "Miss Huang, I have a husband now, so don't make up rumors. I made it clear to you last time. Your liking for my uncle has nothing to do with me. As his sister-in-law, I definitely cannot decide his lifelong affairs. If you like him, go ahead and pursue him boldly. After all, love is free in this society now."

Huang Yingxuan's face was about to turn purple: "You…" Bullshit! You didn't say that last time. You've become even better at confusing right and wrong!

Damn it, she, she has no evidence yet!

Shen Yuhan smiled and looked at her, very magnanimous, and said gently: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want."

Shan Qiyun, who was standing not far away and had been paying attention to this side, felt his blood boiling and he felt like vomiting blood. What did Shen Yuhan mean? He denied that the last time she quarreled with Huang Yingxuan was not because she liked him. He denied that he liked himself

Huang Yingxuan was successfully driven away by Shen Yuhan. Qi Mingqing, the fake sister, pretended to chase her, but in the end she couldn't take a step because of her 15-centimeter high heels.

She asked Shen Yuhan curiously: "Who of you is telling the truth?"

Shen Yuhan now began to deal with Qi Mingqing, who was looking for trouble: "Miss Qi, do you know? In the past, there was a saying about watching a play that the first play was for the immortals, and no one watched the last play."

Qi Mingqing asked her puzzledly: "Why? Who are you showing it to?"

Shen Yuhan's expression suddenly became restrained, and he uttered a word softly: "Ghost."

Suddenly, something supernatural happened, and the onlookers and Qi Mingqing were frightened and had goose bumps all over their bodies. Was this scolding the audience? Was it hinting that they should turn into ghosts? Didn't that mean they should die

All those who were ridiculed returned to their respective places and stopped trying to find out the gossip about Shen Yuhan and Huang Yingxuan.

The matter ended here. The soul of "Shen Yuhan" is no longer in this world, and no one knows what the quarrel was about.

When Shan Qihuan came over, he heard Shen Yuhan pretending to play tricks and scared Qi Mingqing. Then Qi Mingqing was so scared that he walked very fast in his high heels, wishing he could get ten feet away from Shen Yuhan immediately.

He just heard someone over there say there was some commotion over here, and when he saw it was Shen Yuhan, he couldn't get away just now, fearing that he would be bullied. But when he came over, he saw that he handled it in an orderly and capable manner. He couldn't help but twitch his lips. If he had handled things as calmly as he did now, he wouldn't have ended up being pushed into the swimming pool and in such an embarrassing situation.

As soon as Shen Yuhan saw Shan Qihuan, his eyes lit up. He ignored the others around him and stood up and walked towards Shan Qihuan: "Husband, are you done talking?"

Shan Qihuan said: "I'm done talking, let's go."

"Yeah." After winning the battle in a familiar battlefield, I actually felt that the victory was unfair.

After saying something to the host of the banquet, Shan Qihuan took Shen Yuhan away. As for the people from the other three rooms, they didn't even get to meet each other. Ignoring them would be the greatest harm to them.

Shan Qiyun stood in front of the window and watched Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan leave together, with extremely complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

As soon as he got in the car, Shen Yuhang's aura immediately dissipated. He clasped his hands in front of his chest and bowed towards the window, muttering something, looking mysterious.

Shan Qihuan asked him speechlessly: "Didn't you just say you were very enthusiastic? Now you are scared?"

"Don't talk about ghosts and gods carelessly. It's disrespectful." Shen Yuhan said seriously. After worshiping, he moved to Shan Qihuan's side and said timidly, "Hubby, I'm a little scared. Hold me."

Shan Qihuan thought that Shen Yuhan was not only a clingy person but also a little superstitious, and he kept finding excuses to stick to him.

"No." Then he held the little superstitious child in his arms, but said harshly, "Feudal superstition is unacceptable."

Shen Yuhan didn’t quite understand what feudal superstition was.
