Chapter 425 Old Friend's Birthday
She picked up the fan and quickly calmed down.

Back to the topic.

If it was said that the other party started to have doubts because of the Xu family cemetery, or that it was at that time that they were alarmed, then not only He Lanzhun, maybe even she could not escape their attention!
After all, she went to the cemetery because of the persecution of Wen Chan's mother and daughter - in this way, he is not the only one who is in danger, but she is also in danger!

Her heart sank suddenly, and her mind quickly slid through the abnormalities around her in recent months, and finally she asked suddenly: "Do you still remember when the old man held a birthday banquet, Wang'er said that someone outside the house asked about my affairs?" ?!"

Qi Jiu was startled, nodded and said, "I remember."

At that time, it was the time when Han Ning appeared frequently.

Not only did Shen Heng's disappearance happen at the birthday banquet that day, Wang'er came to look for Shen Xi and said that there were people dressed as ordinary women who came to inquire about Shen Xi in the grocery store outside the house.

And this person is using a foreign accent.

Although nothing was found afterwards, they all thought it was the fault of the Han brothers and sisters.

"I suspect it's not from Han Ning!" Shen Xi said, "The shopkeeper said they spoke with a foreign accent, why did Han Ning insist on using someone with a foreign accent to inquire about me?"

Qi Jiu's expression froze immediately.

Shen Xi laughed: "It seems that the past few months have not been as comfortable as I imagined."

Her smile clearly reveals a trace of chill, which makes one can't help shivering even in the afternoon approaching early summer.

"Girl, there is a post from the Mei family. Please invite the ladies and ladies in the house, as well as the masters and young masters, to have a lunch at the house tomorrow."

Just at this point, Pearl came in again holding a piece of exquisite paper.

Shen Xi stood facing the window for a while, then slowly took a look at the post, then recovered his expression, and told Qi Jiu: "Don't tell Shizi what happened just now, wait until I figure it out."

Qi Jiu nodded and turned away, saying nothing more.

Shen Xi looked back at the paper in his hand again, it turned out that when the Mei family first arrived in Beijing, the Huang family had hosted a banquet to welcome the guests, so Mrs. Mei saw that the Shen family's affairs were tentatively scheduled, so she picked a date and prepared to invite her back.

She said, "Does the third girl know?"

"Understood, I just met in the yard just now, so I told you as soon as possible."

Shen Xi nodded, thought for a while, and then ordered: "Let Wu Teng send a letter to Mrs. Han, and ask her to help keep an eye on Han Dun's recent movements with Lingyun Pavilion and Yunnan."

As she spoke, she looked at her deeply again: "Tell her to be careful."

Pearl jaw.

Shen Xi leaned on the edge of the table and looked out of the window again, the knot on his brow seemed unable to be untied.

When Mu received the news from Qi Jiu, he naturally thought about how to inquire quietly.

She is in charge of the inner house now, although she also knows that Han Dun must have secretly set up many whistles, but it is not so difficult to leave a hole for Qi Jiu to send some news.

Hearing Shen Xi's instruction, she couldn't help but nodded deeply.

She didn't know much about the outside world, but since Shen Xi specifically instructed her, she naturally didn't dare to be careless.

Shen Yan returned to Rongyue Zhai, and when she heard the maids talk about going to Mei's house as a guest, her interest suddenly faded.

Perhaps she should be among the top few people in the world who do not look forward to getting married.

Thinking of the fact that she lost her virginity in the previous life was exposed, although Mei Qiying tried to defend her, but Mrs. Mei refused to give up, and immediately decided to give him a concubine, her heart still twitched.

During the years before and after the Mei family, she was never used to getting along well with her mother-in-law.

"Girl, are you feeling well?" Fu Shu asked when he saw her rubbing his forehead when he brought tea in.

Being uncomfortable is a good excuse...

She stopped, hummed and said: "I feel a little uncomfortable, go ask Dr. Liu to come over and let me have a look."

Liu Menglan's public identity is now the family doctor in the mansion, but everyone knows that he is Shen Xi's person.

After Fu Shu went to report to Shen Xi, Liu Menglan arrived at Rong Yue Zhai.

"Doctor Liu, can you prescribe some medicine for my heartache?" Shen Yan asked him in a low voice after sending her away.

Although she didn't know where this Dr. Liu's medical skills went, but since Shen Xi could reuse them, it must be the same.

A person with a serious heart disease can't have children. If he helps her spread the news that she has a heart disease, then this marriage...

She wrung her fingers guiltily.

"Girl, why don't you just ask me to help you prove that you are infertile?" Liu Menglan looked at her while feeling her pulse.

"That's fine!" Shen Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but she was excited. If it can be proved that she can't have children, that would be even better!
No matter what happens, the Mei family will never marry a lady who can't bear children as their daughter-in-law, right?
"If Doctor Liu can help me, I will definitely pay you a lot!"

She showed three fingers.

Liu Menglan stabilized her body, then turned to hum and sneer: "I'm afraid of being struck by lightning!"

After finishing speaking, he opened Zhang Fangzi and pushed it to her: "Take it in the morning and evening, for five days!"

Then got up and left.

As soon as he left the courtyard, he saw Shen Xi holding his fan standing under the opposite corner door, he paused and had to come over to say hello.

"The third girl is not feeling well?"

"Yes. Let me write a fake prescription to escape the marriage contract." He said, and then gestured: "I also offered 300 taels of silver to bribe me, but I didn't open it."

"Then what are you driving?" Shen Xi twitched the corners of his mouth.

He chuckled twice, stroked his beard and said, "It is a medicine that nourishes yin and strengthens the body, and is good for conception."

Shen Xi's face darkened.

But he took a deep look at him and didn't say anything.

But then she turned her head and said to Pearl: "I have a friend, it was Li Xia's birthday, after all, it's almost here, you go and prepare some sacrifices, I will go to his grave on Li Xia's day."

Pearl behind her and Liu Menglan who was about to cross the threshold stopped moving.

Pearl is a friend who has never heard of her having a Lixia birthday festival, but Liu Menglan looked back at her before leaving.

Shen Xi stood on the corridor for a while, then went back to the room.

Shen Yan's bribery was fruitless here, so she resigned herself to her fate and sat in front of the window embroidering.

Suddenly Fushu raised the curtain again and came in: "Miss, Sister Yuanbei is here."

When the curtain opened, Yuan Bei took a letter and crossed the threshold with a smile: "Where is Miss Yan in the room?

"Our girl has a letter to send to the prince, but she is not feeling well, so I want to ask the third girl to help me go."

Shen Yan just thought it was boring to stay in the room, so she took the letter over after hearing this: "Where is brother-in-law? Who are you with?"

Yuan Bei said: "The son is eating with Lord Helan and the others in Lanyue Tower. There are no outsiders, so the girl can just go there."

Shen Yan heard that there were no outsiders, so she tidied up a little and went out.

Yuan Bei watched her get into the car and returned to the Minxiangyuan, Shen Xi leaned on the railing and asked her: "Go?"

"Go." She nodded.

Shen Xi took a deep breath, his eyes were much brighter than usual.
