Chapter 421 Cold War
Chapter 421 Cold War
Half an hour later, Hanhan finally arrived at the gate of Li's mansion in a carriage.
In order not to appear out of place, he also brought a dagger made of black iron.
This is his most precious thing, because this dagger is extremely fast, and the carving on the handle is very vivid and lifelike, and it was made by a master craftsman of national craftsman level.
He thought his father-in-law would definitely like this gift.
However, when he took the dagger and placed it on his father-in-law's desk, Lord Li's expression became visibly ugly.
"What does this mean, brother-in-law?" This was the first time in his life that he saw his brother-in-law giving his father-in-law a dagger.
When Hanhan saw his father-in-law's expression, he realized that he might have misunderstood something.
"Father-in-law, this dagger is made of black iron, and the carvings on the handle are very vivid. I like it very much, and I think you will like it too."
Seeing him explaining nervously, Lord Li guessed that he might not have thought that much, and his expression softened a little.
"Are you here to call Shiyun back?"
Hanhan: "Shiyun has been back for two days. She should be old enough to be new to the world, so I thought about taking her back."
Lord Li: "In my own mother's house, there is no need to wait for her."
Lord Li's words were full of sourness. Hanhan's expression naturally became even more unnatural as he listened to them.
"You two didn't have any conflicts, did you?"
After hearing this, Hanhan quickly shook his head: "No!"
Lord Li: "When Shiyun came back that day, she looked a little awkward. Although she didn't say anything, as a father, I understand my daughter the best."
"From childhood to adulthood, I can tell whether she has lied or not at a glance."
When Hanhan heard this, he didn't know whether he should say it for a moment.
Although the two of them did clash, he was the one who got beaten.
Even if he said it, my father-in-law cannot take sides openly.
But the reason this happened was because he acted like a hooligan early in the morning.
It’s not easy to tell my father-in-law about such boudoir matters!
Just then, Li Shiyun suddenly walked into the main room.
"Oh, my husband is here. Did mother ask you to pick me up?"
Before coming in, Li Shiyun heard the conversation between her father and him.
She couldn't let her father know that she slapped him for not letting him touch her.
Her father will definitely lecture her then, and even if her father doesn't, her stepmother will.
She doesn't want to be lectured, and she doesn't want to tell everyone about her private affairs.
Hanhan was stunned for a moment, then immediately said: "Well, mother missed you, so she asked me to come and pick you up."
Madam Li: "I think it's Master who's thinking about Shiyun, right?"
When Hanhan heard this, he immediately lowered his head with an unnatural expression.
Lord Li was interrupted, and seeing that his daughter was so enthusiastic towards him, he naturally did not dare to ask any more questions.
Hanhan chatted and laughed with his parents-in-law at the Li Mansion for a long time before he took Li Shiyun into the carriage.
After the two got on the carriage, their faces darkened at the same time.
After a long while, Hanhan finally said angrily: "You hit someone, and you're still angry and going back to your mother's house?"
Li Shiyun glanced at him and said, "I've already told you that I don't like that. How can you force me?"
Hanhan: "You don't like it. If you become someone's wife, you have to sleep with your husband. Do you know that?"
Li Shiyun: "I don't know, I just don't like it anyway."
Hanhan was choked by her and his face turned green instantly.
Is this woman abnormal? His subordinates all say that their wives stick to them every day to do that, so how could she not like them?
Li Shiyun: "And I've already told you that I'm not feeling well right now, but you still want to embarrass me. You're just a jerk."
When Hanhan heard her scolding him like that, he became so angry that his chest began to heave.
"I brought you back so you can continue to scold me?"
Li Shiyun: "I didn't ask you to pick it up. I hope I can stay at my parents' house forever!"
Hanhan: "You wish. If you marry me, you have to be my wife."
Li Shiyun: "I don't have to marry you. If you hadn't forced me, I would rather live alone than marry you."
Hanhan was choked by her, and his face turned pale immediately: "You... you really hate me, that's why you are so hostile to me."
Li Shiyun: "No, it's you who have a sharp tongue and always say things in a way that sounds nasty. Don't you think about it, who would like to hear something nasty every day?"
When Hanhan heard this, he didn't know how to respond to her for a moment.
He looked at her with a grim face for a long while, and suddenly he got off the carriage and went in the opposite direction.
Li Shiyun sighed deeply, and finally let out the breath in her chest.
After Li Shiyun returned, she went to the princess's courtyard as usual. Her stepmother asked her to bring some local specialties to the princess.
Jiang Sujin naturally accepted it happily and also gave Li Shiyun a set of expensive headwear.
Li Shiyun felt unworthy of the reward, after all, she had just had a fight with her son.
Hanhan didn't come back drunk until the evening. When he passed by his yard, he just took a deep look and then went straight to his study.
In the following days, he got up early every day to handle official business and did not come back until the evening.
Even when he came back, he went back to his study.
Li Shiyun was happy with the quiet life. She chatted and played mahjong with her sister-in-law every day. She was living a happy and comfortable life.
She was not worried at all, but Jiang Sujin was extremely worried.
If it were any other daughter-in-law, she would definitely come to her crying and making a fuss.
This daughter-in-law is pretty good. She lives a pretty good life.
Jiang Sujin: "Your Highness, you said that Shiyun really doesn't like our Hanhan. Otherwise... why don't we marry Hanhan a concubine?"
Shen Yanfeng: "It's been less than half a month since we got married, and you're already marrying a concubine. If this gets out, won't people curse our palace to death?"
Jiang Sujin: "I feel sorry for our Hanhan, who is lonely and helpless every day."
Shen Yanfeng: "It's all because he's incompetent and can't even coax a woman."
Jiang Sujin: "The two of them just feel something is wrong, no matter how much you talk, it's useless."
Shen Yanfeng: "Don't forget, our Hanhan has been sad and upset because of his daughter-in-law."
"He has chosen me."
Jiang Sujin: "I don't know what he is thinking if he decides not to take action."
Shen Yanfeng had to admit that in this respect, it was really up to him to save face.
"How about thinking of a way to help them?"
Jiang Sujin: "How can I help?"
Shen Yanfeng glanced at Jiang Sujin, then suddenly leaned close to her ear and spoke.
After hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"Isn't this bad? Isn't this too mean?"
Shen Yanfeng: "Just listen to me, it's absolutely right. Hanhan's birthday is in a few days, so it's a good time to celebrate it for him."
