There’s a Beauty [Ancient Wear Modern]

Chapter 41: Marry a virtuous woman

Views:

"Husband, what's wrong?" Shen Yuhan admired his husband's ability to change his expression in a second. Just now he wanted to play with him, but now his eyes turned slightly cold, almost emotionless.

"Dad fell and was admitted to the hospital today. We don't know how he fell. Let's go and take a look." Shan Qihuan's tone was quite cold. It was not like the attitude a biological father should have when he was admitted to the hospital, and he didn't seem to be overly worried.

"Aren't you worried?" Now that Shen Yuhan has become more familiar with Shan Qihuan, she dares to ask more in-depth questions, knowing that this will not touch her husband's bottom line.

If it were our Shen family, if my father got sick, the three brothers would follow him every day to show filial piety, and filial piety comes first. However, my father-in-law's behavior is a bit hard to figure out, and he doesn't seem to care much about my husband. Last time, he heard someone gossiping and criticized my husband without knowing the reason. He doesn't respect my husband very much, so it's understandable that Shan Qihuan has no feelings for him.

Even though this went against what Shen Yuhan was familiar with, which was that filial piety was the most important virtue, she could not be blindly filial and she stood on her husband's side.

"Don't worry, there are people who are more worried about us than us, and the old man doesn't need us to worry." Shan Qihuan said. He was reluctant to say this about his father in front of others, but he seemed to have no scruples in front of Shen Yuhan. For some reason, he knew that Shen Yuhan now believed him. "Are you worried?"

Shen Yuhan gave her a reassurance: "I will listen to my husband."

Shan Qihuan couldn't help but smile helplessly. This was indeed what Shen Yuhan said. Hearing it made him feel better for some reason. He didn't have to feel bad about the matter of the third room. The things that were hotly searched a few days ago would probably be mentioned today as well.

"There will definitely be people from Room 3 in the hospital later, so you don't have to say anything." I have to remind Shen Yuhan. I thought Shen Yuhan only read the trending searches and knew about them. "Just pretend you know nothing. There's no point in arguing with us."

Shen Yuhan asked him: "What if they provoke me?"

"I'm here, but our No. 1 scholar's wife is no pushover either. She can defeat you with one force." Thinking of the second lady's livid face when she blocked him last time, Shan Qihuan still remembered it clearly and thought that the scolding was very good at that time.

Shen Yuhan was amused by his analogy: "I don't have that ability, I can only talk to people and help my husband." She feels a little fulfilled by talking to a few ladies. Her husband is not good at this, and she can make up for this gap.

"Shen Yuhan, you are doing well in learning by following your husband's lead." Shan Qihuan is not at all disgusted by this phrase now.

Shen Yuhan replied seriously: "Thank you for your praise, husband. I have tried my best."

Shan Qihuan felt that the conversation between the two of them was like that between a boss and a subordinate, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

They had just come out of the piano store and were not far from the hospital where Dan Tianfeng went. After being stuck in traffic for several minutes, they arrived in less than half an hour.

This snowy day is really torturous.

Before getting off the car, Shan Qihuan first watched Shen Yuhan put on his hat and mask, and then he pushed open the car door and went out.

Shan Tianfeng had just been injured. If the reporters got wind of it, they would definitely block the door and ask all sorts of questions, making up stories. It’s not that they are afraid of questions about Shan Tianfeng, but they are annoyed by them making up gossip about Shen Yuhan.

Having known you for such a long time, you are indeed in the process of changing. The change is obvious at a glance. It is not at all like what the investigation report mentioned. I am sure that the reason why Shen Yuhan became a prodigal son was related to the sudden death of my parents.

It is estimated that no reporter is aware of the situation at the moment, and the two people were admitted to the hospital smoothly.

This was not the first time Shen Yuhan came to the hospital. He walked out from here the last time he woke up. However, he was very nervous at the time and full of fear of the outside world. He focused on staying calm and did not have time to observe the hospital environment.

There was still the unpleasant smell of disinfectant, and patients coming to see the doctor were everywhere.

Across the emergency area is the inpatient area. The inpatient area is not as busy as the emergency area and is much quieter than outside.

Shen Yuhan now always carries her cell phone with her when she goes out. She must carry it with her husband when he is around. No, she must let him hold her hand because she doesn’t want to get lost. After the trip to the temple, she is quite worried about getting lost.

Shan Qihuan put Shen Yuhan's hand into his coat pocket and kept holding it. This person just loves to stick to him, there's nothing he can do about it.

Shan Tianfeng's ward is easy to recognize. You don't even need to look for the room number to know that this is a high-end VIP ward. There are not many patients and their families coming and going. In contrast, the Shan family appears particularly prominent. Of course, each member of the Shan family looks decent, and you can tell that they are an unusual family just by standing there.

This was Shen Yuhan's observation result. Now that he no longer had to worry about the fear brought by the environment, he had more time to observe the Shan family.

Except for those who are out of town, all the people from the third branch who are in Jiangcheng have now arrived. They came really quickly.

From the first wife's side, only the eldest brothers Shan Qiyuan and Shan Qihuan came. The second sister Shan Qibing was on a business trip and Shan Qixin probably couldn't come either. His career was rather uncertain, so Shan Qiyuan and Shan Qihuan probably wouldn't ask him to come. Even Shen Yuhan knew that he was too simple-minded and not as thoughtful as his brothers.

Of course, the eldest brother asked Shan Qihuan to come over not purely because he was worried about the old man, but because the first branch of the family had to send someone, at least to keep their first branch's reputation intact.

At this time, the second wife was sitting on a lounge chair outside. Although she didn't cry to the point of her husband's death, she was almost crying so hard that she was about to faint. It was not known how much of her crying was real and how much was fake. Her son Shan Qibai and daughters were comforting her, saying that their father was fine and so on. She was acting very well.

The third wife stood with Shan Qiyun, pressing the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and it was unclear whether she was crying or not.

As for the Fourth Madam, she stood aside with an expressionless face. Shan Tianfeng had kept her by his side most of the time in the past two years. In some ways, he doted on her, but after the hot search incident, she was also overwhelmed. Shan Tianfeng didn't say anything, but she had a guilty conscience. She didn't even dare to bring her own son and daughter by her side. Now she was standing aside alone. She was young and beautiful, well-maintained, with slim-fitting clothes and makeup that didn't reveal her original complexion. It was probably because it was winter and she was dressed very poorly, but she was still charming, worthy of being a first-line female star who was popular all over the country back then.

As soon as Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan appeared, everyone's eyes were on them, and the Second Madam almost forgot to cry.

They walked towards Shan Qiyuan and asked about the situation.

Shan Qiyuan didn't explain in detail on the phone, and only now told us that the situation is a little more serious than we imagined.

"Brother, how is Dad now? Why did he fall and have to be hospitalized? Is it serious?" No matter how much Shan Qihuan didn't care about Shan Tianfeng, he still had to pretend, after all, he was already here.

"It's a bit serious. He fell all over his body and his right leg was fractured. The doctor is checking his condition inside. Hospitalization is inevitable. Fortunately, the housekeeper found it in time, otherwise it might be dangerous." Shan Qiyuan is much older than Shan Qihuan. He speaks in a steady manner. He does not have the vigor of Shan Qixin or the heroic spirit of Shan Qihuan. In fact, he is more like an ordinary elder brother. Perhaps he is older and has experienced more, and there is a bit of vicissitudes in his eyes.

‌Looking at Shen Yuhan who was following Shan Qihuan, he was a little surprised: "Yuhan is here too?"

After being mentioned, Shen Yuhan spoke: "Brother." He was quietly paying attention to everything and everyone around him. Generally speaking, everyone had their own plans.

As soon as he spoke, Shan Qiyun beside the Third Madam turned around and looked over. The Third Madam glared at him quickly, tugged at his clothes secretly, and warned him in a low voice: "Qiyun, stay away from Shen Yuhan."

No one knows a son better than his mother. The Third Lady has recently seen her son regretting and feeling unwilling. She doesn't know what attracted her son to Shen Yuhan. He has no background and no education. Although he has some property allocated by the old man, it is not of much benefit to her son. Shen Yuhan is now a member of the eldest wife's family, so she should stay away from him as much as possible.

Although Shan Qiyun was unwilling to accept the fact that the trending topic was not his, he did not clarify it in time and let the situation develop further and further. In fact, he hoped that everyone would know that the person Shen Yuhan loved in her heart was him. Unfortunately, Shan Qihuan cut the Gordian knot and messed up the matter, and directly dragged the second and fourth rooms behind him into the water.

He quietly stared at Shen Yuhan's profile again. Although he was wearing a mask, he could still imagine his current appearance. His hair had grown longer and under his hat he could see his black hair that was past his ears. He stood quietly beside Shan Qihuan, keeping his voice at a volume that was just right for the three of them to hear, neither too loud nor too soft, and so as not to affect others.

A nurse pushed a cart through the corridor. Shan Qihuan held Shen Yuhan and moved him closer to her, asking him to be careful. Shen Yuhan looked at Shan Qihuan intently and whispered with a smile in his eyes. He said thank you to her. Shan Qiyun saw that Shan Qihuan could easily hold Shen Yuhan, and the reluctance in his eyes became stronger.

If he had agreed to Shen Yuhan's pursuit at the beginning, the person hugging Shen Yuhan now would be him.

Just then, the doctor came out of the ward.

The people from the second and third rooms immediately rushed forward and talked at the same time, making the doctor not know how to answer.

Finally, it was Shan Qiyuan who stepped forward to help the doctor out. He had prestige here. He currently held an important position in the Shan family company. Shan Qibai and Shan Qiyun still had to work under him. He was older than the other brothers and had more say than the wives. He said in a loud voice, "What are you arguing about? Let the doctor speak!"

The second and third rooms no longer dared to make a fuss. They had many questions in their minds but dared not say more.

Shan Qiyuan gave the right to speak to the doctor: "Doctor, you go ahead."

The doctor said that the patient had some injuries from a fall, but there was nothing serious else going on and he just needed to be well taken care of. However, he had to stay in the hospital for another week for observation and he told us to stay quiet before we could visit him.

Rooms 2 and 3 rushed in immediately. Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan were the last to enter. As more people came in, the spacious and bright wards became obviously crowded.

Shan Tianfeng was lying on the hospital bed, with a plaster cast on his right leg and gauze wrapped around his forehead. He seemed to be a few years older than the last time Shen Yuhan saw him, and there were a few strands of white hair among his jet-black hair.

Recently, the Shan family has been in turmoil and has become a frequent hot search. Shan Tianfeng has also been affected a little. Each family has a lot of troubles, which have never been exposed before. Now that only a small part of it has been exposed, it is enough to damage their reputation.

‌ saw that the people in the third room were not in a good mood, and said perfunctorily that there was no need to worry, that ‌ was fine, etc. When he saw Shen Yuhan coming in, he waved at ‌, and the smile on his face became bigger.

"Yu Han is here too?"

Shen Yuhan didn't expect that he didn't talk to his son and his wife, but instead dragged her out.

But I was not afraid, as this happened frequently in the past. Sometimes when my grandmother was sick, all the filial grandchildren would come, but she liked to call me alone to her side. Of course, no one dared to say anything.

At this time, everyone looked at Shen Yuhan differently.

Now Shen Yuhan is one with the first wife. When she walked forward, she was very generous and not timid at all. Even the third wife looked at her with new eyes. The Shen Yuhan she saw at the banquet did not have such temperament. There was still a little difference from now. Was it an illusion? Why did she feel the aura of Shen Yuhan

"Yes, Dad, do you want to drink some water first?" Shen Yuhan walked up to Shan Tianfeng and asked. His way of appearance was indeed different from others.

When the others asked Shan Tianfeng whether his wound hurt and how he felt now, not knowing whether it was true or false, they were the only ones who noticed that Shan Tianfeng's lips were dry.

When Shan Qihuan was at home, Shen Yuhan would offer him water whenever he said he was thirsty. Reflexively, he would go straight to pour a cup of warm water for Shan Tianfeng.

After taking the water from Shan Qihuan, Shan Tianfeng was indeed thirsty.

"Thank you, I feel much better now." Shan Tianfeng said contentedly, and then asked Yu Han, "I saw your Uncle Jiang a few days ago, and he said that you played chess with him a few days ago, and asked me to take you to his house to play next time."

Shen Yuhan didn't know many people, Uncle Jiang was one of them, so he told the story of their meeting that day without exaggeration: "You don't know, it was all a coincidence, I saw Uncle Jiang alone there, and thought that no one was playing chess with him, so I went to make up for it. Later I found out that Brother Qihuan and Brother Ruolin were high school classmates."

"Hahaha, that guy will be lonely one day too." Dan Tianfeng was amused by Shen Yuhan and laughed genuinely without any disguise. The atmosphere in the room was quite relaxed for a while.

With Shen Yuhan's help, Shan Tianfeng finally noticed that his son Shan Qihuan was standing behind him like a guardian angel. He then remembered that Shan Qihuan wanted to buy land, so he asked him, "How is your land? I remember that old man Jiang's relatives also wanted to buy it."

Speaking of this, Shan Qihuan didn't laugh in his heart at how Shan Tianfeng was treated as the ATM of the third room, and he couldn't bear to destroy the good atmosphere created by his wife.

He patiently replied, "We are in talks now. They are no longer competing with us. If nothing unexpected happens, we can win it smoothly."

Shan Tianfeng nodded and said, "That's fine. If you need anything, come to me. I'll say hello to Old Man Jiang. It's just a piece of land."

Shan Qihuan wondered what he had been doing before, and put his hand on Shen Yuhan's shoulder and said, "It should be fine now. Yuhan has indirectly helped me."

Shan Tianfeng said: "It seems that our Yu Han is a little lucky star."

Shen Yuhan declined with a smile: "No, it's the old man, it's Brother Qihuan who is capable." She almost called him husband in front of her elders, she was too used to this title.

Shan Tianfeng showed a tired look on his face. He only asked Shan Qiyuan to stay and asked the others to go back first.

No one dared to run up to him and complain about Shan Qihuan. This Shen Yuhan was really capable. He could change the atmosphere with just one or two words. We couldn't even speak and could only leave first.

Everyone took the same elevator, which was big enough in the hospital.

Shan Qihuan was in the spotlight today because of Shen Yuhan, and the Second Lady couldn't control her mouth again. She was full of fighting spirit, as if the person who was crying hoarse just now was not her.

However, the person she attacked was not Shan Qihuan but Shen Yuhan. She still remembered the grudge from last time. Shen Yuhan performed outstandingly today, and her anger grew again.

"I say, Yuhan, you are really good. The old man has always been tight-lipped, but once he opens his mouth, he will definitely help to the end. It's not in vain that Qihuan married you." The second wife deliberately mocked Shan Qihuan for "marrying" Shen Yuhan. Two grown men getting married, and one of them being married is actually an insult to him, that's what she thought.

But Shen Yuhan was not a modern person. He knew that the Second Madam was mocking him and knew what she meant. However, it did not irritate him at all. Instead, he gently lifted his eyelids and said in a neutral tone, "That's right. There is a saying that one should marry a virtuous wife. I hope you understand."

Once again, the Second Madam was speechless and her fingers trembled with anger: "... You, you can do it!"

Is this a mockery of her not being married to Dan Tianfeng in a formal ceremony? She is not even worthy of being his wife!

However, it is an indisputable fact that the person Shan Tianfeng actually married was only Shan Qihuan's mother!

The third wife was even more stunned. The second wife's fighting ability has always been terrifying, and she was too lazy to bother with her. This Shen Yuhan's move was simply fatal. One sentence was more effective than a hundred quarrels with the second wife. It was satisfying, but it just hit the sore spot of the three of them. They knew whether they were virtuous or not, wives or concubines.

At this time, no smart person dared to provoke Shen Yuhan, his mouth was so poisonous.

Shan Qihuan smiled secretly and pulled her closer to him. His wife could really conquer him by herself, and it was no exaggeration.

After getting out of the elevator, the second wife snorted coldly, glared at Shen Yuhan, and was the first to leave, as if she was escaping.

Her son Shan Qibai muttered, "Mom, why are you angry? Wait for me!" He had no idea that his mother was injured internally by Shen Yuhan's anger.

Facing Shen Yuhan was like punching cotton - there was no use in using any strength.

The third lady also glanced at Shen Yuhan, then dragged Shan Qiyun away. She couldn't let her son embarrass himself here!

The others also followed their mothers and disappeared at the hospital entrance.

Then only the Fourth Madam, Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan were left. She asked Shan Qihuan with a half-smile, "Shan Qihuan, why did the second brother mess with you and drag me down with him?"

Shan Qihuan looked at her and said to her, "If you don't want others to know, you must do it yourself. Don't provoke me. You can't afford the consequences."

A crack appeared on the fourth lady's face, which had been stern all the time.

Then, Shan Qihuan took Shen Yuhan's hand and left the hospital, this place of trouble.

When they got back to the car, Shan Qihuan couldn't help laughing at Shen Yuhan anymore.

Shen Yuhan was puzzled by his laughter. She touched her face and asked in confusion: "Husband, what are you laughing at?"

Shan Qihuan said: "It's funny to laugh at you."

Shen Yuhan pretended to be angry and said, "What's so funny about me? If you laugh again, I will ignore you."

Then her husband came forward and kissed him on the corner of his mouth: "Marry a virtuous wife? So you are my virtuous wife."

"Am I not your good wife?" Shen Yuhan covered his mouth, "No kiss, you are making fun of me."

Shan Qihuan kissed his palm and looked at him with ambiguous eyes.

My wife is more correct.
