The wind is gentle and the fun is endless

Xiangyue told Huanhuan that she wanted to take a walk and chat, so they did not arrange a carriage, but walked to the rouge shop.

Xiangyue and Huanhuan walked side by side, and Xiangyue's maid followed behind. Xiangyue saw Huanhuan was alone, so she asked first: "Sister-in-law, where is Xiaoyu?"

She answered slowly, "I asked her to go to the shop early in the morning. She can't leave the shop recently."

"Oh." Xiangyue responded and then remained silent. The three of them continued to move forward.

Although Huanhuan's mind was on the shop, she could still feel that something was wrong with Xiangyue today. She couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with my sister? You look worried?"

Xiangyue turned her head and looked at Huanhuan, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Sister-in-law, your rouge shop has been open for so long and I haven't been there. I hope you don't blame me."

He smiled slowly and asked, "Why should I blame you?"

Xiangyue lowered her head and said, "Because... because when my sister-in-law was in trouble, I was worried about what people would say and didn't help her."

Slowly she understood, and she smiled and said, "Xiangyue, it's okay. You know what? When I was young, my father went to Weizhou for a post, and my mother and brother went with him. They sent me to live with my grandparents in Heyang. My father told me before he left that it is a favor for others to help us, and it is their duty not to help us. Such a long-term stay is really a nuisance. If my grandparents are strict with me in the future, or occasionally show annoyance to me, I should also consider their kindness in taking me in and be grateful. Over the years, I have always kept these words in my heart. What's more, what my sister did is human nature, and other people would do the same. I won't blame you."

Xiangyue bit her lip and whispered, "Sister-in-law, please don't humiliate Xiangyue. I am not someone else, I am sister-in-law's..." She stopped here, feeling more and more ashamed and couldn't continue.

He looked at Xiangyue slowly and tenderly, and said softly: "Because you are my sister, I love you enough, and I don't want you, an unmarried girl, to be involved in the situation at that time."

Xiangyue looked up in astonishment when she heard that, and saw Huanhuan smiling at her, a smile that was sincere and frank. Suddenly, a layer of tears covered Xiangyue's eyes: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, sister-in-law."

Slowly pulling Xiangyue's hand, he said with a smile: "Xiangyue, don't take it to heart. Aren't you going to the shop with me today? Let me tell you, the rouge in our Shishi Rouge Shop is really good. I have to tell you about it."

Xiangyue nodded, smiled, and took Huanhuan's arm with a childlike dependence, and walked forward with Huanhuan, talking and laughing.

After walking for a while, they saw Xie Shen holding a food box and standing dejectedly on the side of the road. Behind him was a servant with both hands full of gift boxes.

"Cousin Shen!" Xiangyue called him from a distance.

Xie Shen raised his head and saw that it was Xiangyue and Huanhuan, feeling very embarrassed.

After approaching, Xie Shen put down the food box and bowed to Huanhuan. Huanhuan returned the greeting and asked, "Master Shen, are you feeling unwell? You look a little unwell."

Xie Shen said in a listless and polite manner: "Thank you Madam Xu for your concern. I am fine."

Xiangyue asked: "Brother Shen, what are you doing standing here?"

Xie Shen smiled stiffly and said, "I heard Xiang Yin was ill, so I came to see her. But Madam Xu said that Xiang Yin was still ill and couldn't see outsiders, so I didn't see her."

Xiangyue said: "Xiangyin is sick? I didn't even hear about it."

Xie Shen's eyes lit up and he asked, "Really? Xiang Yin isn't sick, right?"

Huanhuan interrupted and said, "Xiangyin was indeed ill a while ago, and it seemed to be quite serious. Second uncle and second aunt stayed by her side the whole time, and I didn't see her when I went to visit her. But I heard that she is much better now, and Second uncle doesn't even need to stay by her side."

Hearing Huanhuan say this, Xie Shen seemed to be relieved and murmured, "It's good that you are well. It's no wonder that I can't see you Xu family members several times."

Xiangyue was surprised and asked, "Brother Shen has come several times?" Then she looked at the gift boxes in the hands of Xie Shen and the servant behind him and said, "Brother Shen brought so many things? It's quite thoughtful. It's worth Xiangyin's hard work in making soup for you every day."

After hearing this, Xie Shen actually laughed innocently and said, "Yes, yes."

Xiangyue burst out laughing and said jokingly, "Brother Shen, you look so stupid like this."

Xie Shen was used to being teased by Xiangyue since he was a child, so he didn't care. He said in a good tone: "Then I will go back first. Sister, help me send the things to Xiangyin."

Xiangyue asked curiously, "Second Uncle's house is just across the street, can't you just send him there?"

Xie Shen hesitated and finally said, "I've been there just now, so I don't want to bother you anymore. Please help me, dear sister."

Xiangyue frowned and said, "But my sister-in-law and I have something to do."

Huanhuan watched Xie Shen from the sidelines, hesitant as if he had something to hide. Thinking back to when Xie Shen had helped him in Yihong Pavilion, she said, "Mr. Shen, if you don't mind delaying for a few days, please send the things to our house first. I happen to have to visit Sister Xiangyin again these two days, so I'll bring them to you."

Xie Shen was overjoyed to hear this, and said quickly: "No, no, except for the one in my hand which is food, the others can be delivered a few days later. Then I'll take the one in my hand back." After saying that, he bowed to Huanhuan repeatedly to express his gratitude.

Finally, Xie Shen hesitated again and said, "Madam, if you send something directly to Xiangyin, you can tell her that it was sent by me. If you didn't see Xiangyin and gave it to Second Master Xu or Second Madam, don't mention me, just say it was sent by you."

Huanhuan and Xiangyue were very confused after hearing this. Xiangyue asked, "What kind of weird request is this?"

Xie Shen looked embarrassed, smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

He slowly pulled Xiangyue and promised, "Okay, I'll remember that, don't worry, Master Shen."

After hearing Huanhuan's words, Xie Shen breathed a sigh of relief as if a huge stone in his heart had finally fallen to the ground. After thanking Huanhuan again, he took the servant and walked towards Xu's Mansion.

Huanhuan and Xiangyue watched Xie Shen and the servant walk away. Xiangyue smacked her lips and said, "How strange! How strange! Brother Shen is really so strange."

She smiled slowly and said, "Never mind him, let's go and give it a try." So the two of them chatted all the way to the rouge shop.

At this time, the rouge shop had not yet received any customers. Suzhu came over with a smile, calling her "Miss" and bowing to Xiangyue. Xiangyue blinked and said with a surprised look, "Suzhu?"

Then Xiangyue seemed to remember something and said, "I heard that you were helping my sister-in-law, but I didn't expect it to be true."

Suzhu smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, Miss, it's true. Madam arranged for me to come here."

Xiangyue looked at her carefully and said, "You look like you are very happy here?"

Suzhu couldn't help but smiled and said, "Yes, Miss, I have gone from being anxious at the beginning to enjoying it now. Besides, the young lady is very kind to us, and I have learned a lot here."

Huanhuan stepped forward and said, "Suzhu is smart and capable. She is worthy of being a capable person around my mother. She has helped me a lot here."

Xiangyue couldn't help laughing when she saw them like this, "Suzhu and sister-in-law, stop flattering each other. It must be because you are all good and capable that the shop is doing well."

He said slowly and promptly: "Sister is smart, and what you said is absolutely right!" This time even Xiangyue was praised as well. After he finished speaking, the three of them looked at each other in shock, and then burst into laughter.

Huanhuan asked Suzhu: "Where is Xiaoyu?"

Suzhu replied, "I went back home to get food for lunch."

Huanhuan didn't say anything, and pulled Xiangyue to look at the shop carefully. Xiangyue was full of curiosity about everything in the shop. She looked here and there, and praised the entire shop from the plaque to the simple and elegant furnishings.

Huanhuan was naturally delighted after hearing this, and said to Xiangyue: "This was all arranged by your brother himself."

Xiangyue nodded repeatedly after hearing this and said, "Yeah, yeah, not bad, not bad, brother has always had good taste."

After hearing this, Huanhuan kept nodding her head in agreement, as if she was being praised, and she couldn't hide the smile on her lips.

Then Huanhuan introduced Yanzhi to Xiangyue. Xiangyue had been listening quietly, but in the end she couldn't help but interrupt Huanhuan...
