Chapter 278 The heart is like a mirror
This change stirred up waves in Song Yuanyi's heart, making him ponder it secretly.
Shen Yan pulled off a chicken leg and chewed it carelessly, her mouth full of the lingering fragrance. "Hey, I don't have so many rules, unlike my uncle, who seems to be so glorious on the outside. He just scolded my parents, so he should be embarrassed to enjoy the gift from my family."
"The girl from the Shen family!" Song Yuanyi was furious.
"Why are you yelling? I give my things to whoever I want. You guys are saying I'm a witch outside, but I haven't settled the score with you yet!" Shen Yan showed no sign of weakness and spoke in a loud and clear voice.
"Don't use seniority to pressure me, it won't work on me! If you younger ones are rude to me, there's no need for me to be polite to my elders. As a living being, one must always have some backbone! If you want to eat, go buy it yourself, don't always covet other people's food and drool over it." Shen Yan's words were like a string of cannonballs, each word sonorous and powerful.
Song Yuanyi was so angry that he was shaking all over and could hardly speak: "You shrew!"
Shen Yan was not in a hurry and retorted, "Your head looks like a wrinkled lemon; your eyes are small like rats, your nose is hooked like an eagle's beak; your teeth are sparse like mountain muntjacs, and your mouth is wide enough to hold a whole upside-down pot; your ears are big like a palm-leaf fan for cooling off in the summer; your neck is thin and long, as if the wick will be broken by the wind at any time; your arms are thin, like underdeveloped bean sprouts; your chest is open, but your belly is round like a dog; your waist is thick like a wooden barrel; your legs are uneven, and you stagger when you walk. Hey, I say, which cave did this monster run out from?"
Song Yuanyi was so angry that he stormed out, leaving the whole room in shock.
Shen Yan smiled slyly, enjoying herself, "Today's scolding was so refreshing that it's enough for me to eat two more bowls of rice."
The Song family looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.
Song Yunfeng suddenly said, "The one you said who specializes in cursing skills, could it be you?"
Shen Yan waved her hands, looking smug, "Nonsense, I never scold people easily, those I scolded can't be considered human beings at all."
Yi Ge'er interrupted, his eyes sparkling with admiration: "Sister-in-law, your trick of refusing to admit your mistakes is truly unbeatable."
Shen Yan pretended to be modest, waved his hand and said: "This is all thanks to your silent support."
She was particularly satisfied with this. Although the Song family was knowledgeable, gentle, and just, they were not bound by old conventions. Whenever she spoke passionately, her family would always watch silently, without any interference or hold back. This made her unable to help but stand up and defend justice, otherwise she would have let it go long ago.
The Song family fell silent again, thinking to themselves: Who encouraged you?
They were just shocked by her words and were speechless for a moment.
Zhao was the same. She had worked hard for half her life, but she had never seen such a vivid and vivid quarrel. In her memory, the one who was the best at scolding was the housekeeper of the family where she worked before. Compared with Shen Yan, the housekeeper's scolding skills were simply monotonous and boring, not worth mentioning, but just some clichés such as "lazy bug" and "cheap girl".
Where did Shen Yan learn these words from?
"Lin, stop standing there. Go back and rest." Zhao looked at Shen Yan and saw that she seemed to be immersed in her own world and didn't notice the movement here, so she took the initiative to step forward and support her.
"Mom, I'm much better now. Let's eat together here." Song Yunfeng said and sat down directly.
Zhao was still worried, so she turned to ask Shen Yan: "Is this okay, Yanyan?"
"As long as my husband thinks it's okay, lying down for too long is not good for your health." Shen Yan's answer was gentle and considerate.
Only then did Zhao feel completely relieved. She handed the amulet to Song Yunfeng and told him to carry it with him at all times.
"I have made a spell for each of you, one for safety and one for a happy marriage."
Shen Yan was surprised when she heard this, "Mom, why didn't you tell me there was a marriage talisman?"
The sudden appearance of the marriage talisman made her heart move, and she felt that the small red envelope hanging around her waist seemed to become a little itchy.
"Thank you, mother." Shen Yan said softly, with complex emotions surging in her heart.
Song Yunfeng glanced at Shen Yan and put the amulet in his arms. His eyes were deep, as if hiding thousands of words, which made Shen Yan confused - this guy, what does that mean, is he warning me?
"It's better to eat less greasy food. I specially prepared egg custard for you." Shen Yan pouted and placed a bowl of delicate and smooth egg custard in front of Song Yunfeng.
Her lips are naturally small and plump like cherries. When they are pouty, they look like a budding flower. Combined with her round and delicate face, they add a bit of childishness and cuteness, making people feel pity for her.
Song Yunfeng gently stroked his index finger with his fingertips, a gentle light flashing in his eyes, and his low and soft voice was like a spring breeze: "Thank you, my lady." These words were full of gratitude and pampering, which warmed people's hearts.
Zhao's eyes were full of smiles, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she began to have dinner. Seeing this, Yi Ge'er and Yuan Yuan, the two clever little ghosts, couldn't help but laugh at the side again, adding a bit of liveliness to this warm scene.
However, in such joy, Shen Yan felt a little restless. She felt that Song Yunfeng seemed to be a little unpredictable recently, lacking the calmness and stability that he used to have.
As night fell, she habitually hung a curtain in the middle of the bed, trying to maintain a little private space for each other. Unexpectedly, Song Yunfeng gently pulled the curtain, and it fell silently to the ground.
“If the heart is bright, there is no need to cover it; if the heart is chaotic, it will be in vain even if thousands of walls are surrounded.” His words revealed a sense of firmness and relief.
However, Shen Yan muttered to himself: Can you really have a clear mind like a mirror as you said?
She secretly made up her mind that she would buy a small bed next time she went to the city to completely solve this problem. As if they were in sync, Song Yunfeng seemed to understand her thoughts when his eyes swept across her face.
"Don't let mother worry. How could I do anything wrong to you?" This sentence was always spoken by her to comfort him, but now he said it to her. The change of roles was too abrupt and caught people off guard.
He added: "Besides, when I recover from my injury, I will return to the academy. Why do you have to worry so much, my lady?"
Shen Yan snorted in dissatisfaction: "Hmph, I'm worried? What can you do to me, you little brat!" She deliberately emphasized the word "little", with a hint of teasing in her tone.
Song Yunfeng heard this, clenched his teeth, and the light in his eyes flickered: "How am I young!" He was secretly wondering in his heart, he had tried his best to act mature and steady, but she always liked to use this word to describe him. Did she really prefer those who were more mature and steady?
