Quick Wear: The Concubine is Seductive and Seduces the Mistress

There was a lot of snow this winter. It snowed a lot at the end of December and continued to snow for several days during the New Year. The snow on the roads was thick and was cleared in time. The end of the year was going to be lively and would not be affected by the snow.

The Shen Mansion's New Year's banquet was also very lively. Liu Fuyin only had a meal in the main hall on New Year's Eve and did not participate in any subsequent banquets or New Year's greetings.

After all, her belly is very big now and she is about to give birth. It is also wet and slippery outside, so it is not suitable for her to go out.

The midwife, Shen's mother, had chosen one for her early in the morning and only told her to walk around the house more when she had nothing to do, which would help her give birth more easily.

Today is the Lantern Festival. Red lanterns are hung everywhere in the house, and even the trees are hung with red ribbons. It is a joyous atmosphere.

It is even more lively outside, especially at night. Young people will make appointments to go out and walk from one end of the street to the other. If you are not careful, you may be separated by the crowd.

Since Liu Fuyin couldn't go out, she asked Ruyi to help her take a walk in the yard. There were also a few maids who accompanied her and told her some interesting stories in the capital.

I originally wanted to give these girls a day off to go out and play, but she was about to give birth and needed people around her, so I didn't do these unnecessary things.

She was kind, and the maids in the courtyard were also lively in front of her. They would dance with joy when she was bored and talked about interesting things in the capital.

But Liu Fuyin didn't find it very interesting. At most, it was a little more lively than her hometown. There was a ban on fireworks in Beijing, and people were not allowed to light fireworks at will. Only on the first day of the new year, each household would set off firecrackers to liven things up, but forget about fireworks.

It's not that people nowadays don't know how to enjoy themselves. I heard from these girls that the capital is dry in winter and the houses are densely populated. The previous emperor didn't prohibit it too much, and some children of officials accidentally burned down several houses while setting off fireworks, which also harmed innocent people. There were many such incidents, and fortunately the previous emperor banned it later.

Of course, these things are not necessary. After all, fireworks have not always existed. They were developed by the previous dynasty. Even without fireworks, life would still be just as lively.

However, Liu Fuyin's hometown is located in the border area, which is vast and sparsely populated, so there is no such ban. The soldiers on garrison have been tense all year round, and setting off fireworks on this festival can be considered as a way to relax, but they are not allowed to set off fireworks privately.

The weather was cold, and even with her coat on, Liu Fuyin couldn't stand the cold wind blowing on her face. She wanted to go back after walking for a while. As soon as she raised her leg, she saw the figure in front of her and hesitated: "Axian?"

There were lights hanging on the road when she walked, so it was not that she couldn't see the people clearly, but she was a little shocked.

"It's me." Shen Xianyu walked towards her with a smile.

As he approached, Liu Fuyin tugged at his sleeves, "Didn't you say you were all out? Why are you back so early?"

Shen's mother asked him to accompany Fang Youyi for a walk, but he felt it was boring so he made an excuse to come back.

"Why did sister-in-law come out? Didn't you say you wanted to have a good rest?" Shen Xianyu didn't answer her directly. It was not that he was avoiding her, but he just didn't know how to say it. He couldn't say that he felt that accompanying Miss Fang was not as good as accompanying her?

This sounded odd, as if he was up to something sinister.

Although he did have some ill intentions...

Shen Xianyu's heart was in a mess when he thought about such problems. He didn't want to face them at all because he knew clearly that this was unethical.

Liu Fuyin just asked casually, "I feel so bored staying in the mansion every day. I miss the wind in the frontier and the days of horse racing in the frontier. At that time, there was always something to do all day long. My father always said that I was erratic..."

When talking about her family, Liu Fuyin's mood became a little unhappy. "I am his only daughter. He must have been very angry when I went out this time. He didn't even reply to my letter."

She was afraid that the original owner's father would worry, so she sent a letter about a month after arriving in Beijing. The other party wrote back to scold her and said that he no longer recognized her as his daughter.

I sent a letter to him before the New Year, but he never replied. I don't know if he was really angry.

Shen Xianyu didn't know much about the Liu family's affairs. Firstly, it was too far away to investigate, and secondly, he was afraid that she would be unhappy if she knew, so he waited until she wanted to talk about it and then told her.

He was not in a position to comment on her family affairs, and could only comfort her, "I don't know much about your family, but from what you said, it must be a very warm family."

"Of course, my father is still very good to me, but this time I probably really pissed him off, and I was too impulsive."

If she hadn't come to him on impulse, they might never have met each other. It would have been even longer before the Shen family knew that her brother had married. Isn't this also a kind of fate?

"If you miss me, you can bring my family to Beijing. Or, if you want to go back, I will accompany you."

Liu Fuyin looked at him steadily and suddenly laughed out loud, "Then you will probably be beaten by my father. I got angry with him last time and then went out to meet A Yuan. If I bring you back this time, he might think you are..."

The joke came to an abrupt end here. Liu Fuyin smiled a little embarrassedly, as if she wanted to drop the topic.

For some reason, when he heard her mention his brother Shen Linyuan, he didn't feel sadness or longing, but a sense of blockage and discomfort as if his heart was swollen.

"My sister-in-law and my brother used to be very loving. I remember he was like a piece of wood. My mother even worried that he would be disliked when he got married." Shen Xianyu seemed to be attracted by her words and mentioned it inadvertently.

When Liu Fuyin mentioned her, she smiled very gently, with a layer of pink on her face, as if she was filled with happiness. "It seems that you don't know him very well. A Yuan is a very gentle and considerate person!"

When saying this, Liu Fuyin wanted to put her hands behind her back and pretend to take two steps back, look at him with a smile and then exit gracefully. However, she was skinny and her belly was so big that she couldn't carry her hands behind her back. She needed someone to support her after walking a few steps.

Shen Xianyu was also holding her up when he was talking, fearing that she would get excited and lose her balance. Unexpectedly, he got excited first, and his hand suddenly rested on her shoulder.

"My sister-in-law seems to have a very good relationship with my brother. Won't she complain about being apart so often?" Shen Xianyu asked unwillingly.

"Sometimes, but Ayuan can always coax me. I am happy every day with him around." Liu Fuyin said and looked at him strangely, "Why is Axian suddenly so concerned about me and your brother? Could it be--"

Shen Xianyu held his breath when he heard her suddenly interrupted the sentence, and his mind was frantically wondering if he had revealed something.
