Shan Qihuan didn’t have to go to the company recently and canceled all external entertainment, he and Shen Yuhan went out early to avoid traffic jams, when they arrived at the Shan’s residence, not many people from home had returned, and those who usually ran the most actively had not arrived yet. Of course, it’s not that they didn’t come, but that Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan returned early.
Naturally, the two of them went to see Shan Tianfeng first.
Although Shen Yuhan knew that Shan Tianfeng didn’t treat his husband very well, in terms of etiquette, he still made sure that others could not fault him, and he even brought snacks he made himself when he came.
When they arrived, Shan Tianfeng was leisurely drinking tea and listening to opera, he didn’t look like he had cancer at all.
At present, there is no complete cure for cancer, but if it is under control, it is not a big problem to live for ten or more years without recurrence within five years, so there is really no need to worry too much about it.
Shen Yuhan often went to accompany him when he was hospitalized last time, and now he brings snacks again, Shan Tianfeng is in a good mood when he sees him.
He also took the initiative to ask: “Are you two hungry, if you are hungry, you can eat some noodles first, the chef’s hand-rolled noodles are not bad.”
This point has been recognized by Shan Qihuan: “It’s really good, you didn’t eat much at lunch, do you want to eat some?”
In fact, what he wants to say in his heart is that he probably wouldn’t be able to eat a few bites at night, seeing that group of people was quite off-putting.
Shen Yuhan said, “Why don’t we eat together, you can eat some with me.”
Shan Qihuan had no objection, and Shan Tianfeng was also willing to eat some noodles with Shen Yuhan, mainly because he was also a bit hungry.
They didn’t go to the big table in the dining room to eat, instead, they set up a small table in the leisure area for tea, and the three of them sat down to eat.
As soon as the noodles were served, Shen Yuhan started to eat them, and Shan Qihuan also picked them up one by one, wasn’t it his left hand that was injured, his right hand was still flexible, he would only pretend that he couldn’t eat when he was teasing his wife, but Shen Yuhan had already seen through his trick and insisted on letting him eat by himself when they were outside.
After the three of them had a simple chicken noodle soup, Shan Tianfeng asked Shan Qihuan: “How is your health? When is your hand going to get better?”
It’s rare for Shan Qihuan to talk to Shan Tianfeng in such a calm manner: “Soon, I think I’ll have to recuperate for a few more days after the cast is removed.”
“How are you doing?” Shan Qihuan asked awkwardly1不尷不尬 (bù gān bù gà): to be caught in a fix; in an awkward position; in an awkward predicament; in a quandary; in an embarrassing situation., it was rare for father and son to sit down and chat so calmly.
Shan Tianfeng had nothing to say: “It’s not bad, I think I’ll need to have surgery before the Chinese New Year, I’ve already discussed it with the doctor.”
“Um, one surgery is enough, right?”
“Depends on the situation, if the disease recurs, a second surgery or chemotherapy may be necessary.”
Shan Qihuan and Shan Tianfeng chatted about each other and didn’t argue meaninglessly on the surface, which was quite harmonious.
Meanwhile, Shen Yuhan was wandering around this teahouse, the layout here is the Chinese-style design that he likes, while they were chatting, he just walked around here, perhaps due to the limitations of the dynasty, he didn’t have much knowledge about antiques, but he did have some insights into calligraphy and painting, he also has been studying a lot recently, and he can also tell the quality of other people’s calligraphy.
After Shen Yuhan came back from looking around, Shan Tianfeng asked him: “Which calligraphy or painting do you like? Take it back if you like it.”
Shen Yuhan asked Shan Qihuan: “Is it okay?”
Shan Qihuan encouraged him, he thought his cautious demeanor was heartbreaking: “If you like it, you can have it, there’s nothing wrong with it.”
Shan Tianfeng saw the interaction between the two of them, and couldn’t help but smile and said: “Last time I heard you said you were still growing flowers at home?”
Shen Yuhan said: “Not bad, I just stay at home and casually take care of it.”
The more Shan Tianfeng looked at Shen Yuhan, the more pleasing to the eye he was: “I got a peony that was raised by someone else a few days ago, it has been raised for fifty years if you like it, I’ll send someone to plant it for you later.”
When he came to Shan’s residence, he ate and also took things, but Shen Yuhan was not reserved at all, the elder’s gift shouldn’t be declined, he said politely: “Thank you, Dad, I’ll accept it then.”
Shan Qihuan was very surprised by Shan Tianfeng’s generosity to Shen Yuhan, the price of fifty-year-old peonies is not cheap either, at least six or seven figures, it can almost be the peony king of the flower garden, the most important thing is not the price, but its rarity, he knows that Shan Tianfeng has a lot of hobbies, and raising flowers is one of them.
Was he really impressed by Shen Yuhan?
The two of them didn’t stay with Shan Tianfeng for long when the housekeeper came over and told them that the Second Madam was coming this way.
Shan Qihuan didn’t want to meet the Second Madam, so he took Shen Yuhan to see his room, Shan Tianfeng didn’t say anything, waved his hand to let them go, and then asked the housekeeper to pack the peony flowers that had been sent to him earlier and send them to Shan Qihuan.
The housekeeper was even more surprised than Shan Qihuan in his heart: “What are you doing?” Are you arranging what happened after your death?
Shan Tianfeng smiled: “Of course not, I just like this child, Yuhan, I heard that he takes good care of flowers, and I have plenty of flowers here, so it’s nothing to give him one.”
Housekeeper: “What about the painting?”
Shan Tianfeng: “Isn’t he very good at calligraphy and painting? Which of my sons and daughters has anything to do with art? There is nothing wrong with giving it to him as a gift, his relationship with Qihuan can’t deceive people.”
The housekeeper agrees that’s true, they are inseparable2形影不離 (xíng yǐng bù lí): inseparable like form and shadow; follow each other like body and shadow―be inseparable; be joined at the hip; be never apart..
–
At this time, Shan Qihuan took Shen Yuhan to the room where he once lived, which still maintained the same appearance as before, not much had changed, and it was always kept clean and tidy, it was just that he had stopped coming back to live here after he became independent.
The style here exuded a sense of youthfulness, Shen Yuhan understands his husband’s past little by little.
Shan Qihuan told him to look around, Shen Yuhan really looked around and touched around, the room was divided into two parts, one was his reading area and the other was a resting area.
There were many classics on the bookshelf, that Shen Yuhuan had never read, so he asked Shan Qihuan if he could pack them up and take them away.
Shan Qihuan said that’s fine, anyway, there are a lot of things to bring back today.
Shen Yuhan also found several thick photo albums sandwiched in the middle of the bookshelf.
He had never seen photo albums before, right?
All he had seen since he came to the modern world were mobile phone photo albums, this was the first time he had ever seen physical photo albums.
Shen Yuhan asked curiously: “Honey, what is this?”
Shan Qihuan followed him with his eyes and said: “Photo albums, from elementary school to college, they’re all here.”
Shen Yuhan casually flipped through the pages and saw Shan Qihuan with a youthful teenage face, he was still wearing the high school uniform, and there were two people arm-in-arm with him, one was Liu Tan and the other was Ding Quan, Shan Qihuan looked unhappy and wanted to hit someone, while Liu Tan and Ding Quan had bright faces, which shows that their relationship is really good.
Shen Yuhan said: “Then I’ll move them all back to look at them.”
Shan Qihuan looked at the piles of books on the floor and was speechless for a long time: “Okay.” Those who didn’t know better would thought that you were moving.
After staying in the room for half an hour, Shen Yuhan ‘scrounged’ a bunch of books, all of which he wanted to pack up and take away.
Soon after, when it was time for the Shan family to have dinner, Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan went to the dining room.
When they came out, they immediately became the center of attention, there were many people here today, including the four brothers and sisters of the main house, except for Shan Qihuan’s mother, who was not there, everyone else had arrived, and it really seemed like they were talking about splitting up the family.
The Second Madam’s mouth could never be closed, and she would always quarrel with others, especially Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan.
“Hey, Qihuan, why are you so careless, when will your hand get better?” The Second Madam looked like she was taking pleasure in others’ misfortune, “It’s better to be more careful when traveling far from now on.”
Before Shan Qihuan opened his mouth, Shen Yuhan replied: “Listening to your words, Second Madam seems to understand the specific situation very well.”
The Second Madam’s expression changed slightly: “What are you talking about, how could I possibly understand.”
It seems that the only one who can make her shut up is Shen Yuhan.
Shan Tianfeng came out just as they were about to confront each other, and everyone took their seats in turn.
The children of the second, third, and fourth houses all started to show their attentiveness, and concern about Shan Tianfeng’s physical condition, and the mesdames of the several houses also showed a virtuous attitude.
After dinner, Shen Yuhan went to the bathroom alone.
When he came out, he met Shan Qibai, who had just returned from smoking.
Shen Yuhan hadn’t spoken much to Shan Qibai, but he always felt that this person always looked at him with a strange look in his eyes.
There was no one in the corridor, Shen Yuhan wanted to bypass Shan Qibai and enter the living room, but Shan Qibai suddenly leaned to the side, and stretched out his hand to block his way.
“Shen Yuhan, you’ve been arguing with my mother again and again, you’re really something, what method did you use to make Shan Qihuan become obsessed with you?”
“Please give way.” Shen Yuhan didn’t want to pay attention to him.
He tried to move around Shan Qibai, but Shan Qibai came closer to him, making an intoxicated expression as if he was smelling food.
Shan Qibai clicked his tongue and said: “Looks really good, and smells pretty good.”
Shen Yuhan’s face turned pale, he didn’t expect this Shan Qibai to be so disgusting, like a bully filled with extreme evil3惡貫滿盈 (è guàn mǎn yíng): lit. strung through and filled with evil (idiom); filled with extreme evil; to have committed a great number of crimes or sins; replete with vice; guilty of monstrous crimes; (of a person) guilty of/have committed countless crimes and deserve to come to judgement; full of iniquities; face retribution for a life of crime., he took two steps back and said: “Get out of the way, otherwise, I won’t be polite!”
Shan Qibai reached out to pinch his chin: “I tell you, there is no surveillance here, if you let me kiss you, I will let you go.”
But Shan Qibai didn’t touch Shen Yuhan, who kept retreating, but this made him even more excited and energetic!
Shan Qibai’s eyes were actually a little dazed and excited, and his feet were a little shaky when he walked, he looked at Shen Yuhan with a lustful look: “What are you hiding from? Little slut, after hooking up with Shan Qiyun, and then also getting into Shan Qihuan’s bed, I still can’t touch you?”
This Shen Yuhan is fair, tender, and delicate, he is prettier than all the women he knows outside, and although he is flat-chested, he suits his taste.
At this time, Shen Yuhan was so angry that his face turned blue, seeing that Shan Qibai was about to touch him, he grabbed the vase on the shelf next to him and fiercely smashed it on his head!
