When Xiao Yichen woke up and opened his eyes, he saw the sobering soup that was almost filling the table, and Shen Nanbao beside the black cup. Wu Xuanxuan's gleam of light fell on the narrowed smiling eyes, matching With that cool tone.
"Master, are you awake? You had a lot of wine yesterday. This is the hangover soup I prepared for you. You must drink it well to avoid feeling uncomfortable."
Xiao Yichen only felt a chill rush up from his spine, densely covering his entire brain.
He couldn't help but shudder, but he still had a dry smile on his face, "Thank you... Madam for your understanding."
In his words, Shen Nanbao held up the spoon and added a cup of soup, then handed it to Xiao Yichen.
I don't know if the soup was overcooked, but the color that should have been yellow and clear became as bright as ink, shining with a incomplete and eerie light across the exposed glutinous rice silver teeth of Shen Nanbao.
Xiao Yichen's heart was pounding when he saw it, but his hands were very nimble. He hurriedly stretched out his arms to take the jianzhan, "I'll do it myself, so as not to dress you up and tire you out of changing clothes."
However, Shen Nanbao avoided him with one hand, "This is something you keep to yourself, don't be afraid to reveal it. Besides, you are my father-in-law, and I should serve you."
Madam's concern for her should be very important. Xiao Yichen looked at it, but his heart trembled. Looking at the hangover soup passed to his lips, he felt like boiling water. He could feel it without even tasting it. There was a stinging pain all the way from the tip of my tongue to my throat.
But when I raised my eyes and looked at the person in front of me, a ray of light slanted through the thick long eyelashes, lining the rose-red silk surface, as if reflected in a red pond, and it was very charming and charming. .
Xiao Yichen couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly felt that drinking sobering soup would do nothing. After all, she was his wife. Even if the sky fell, he would let her do whatever she wanted.
Thinking of this, his mouth opened blankly, allowing Shen Nanbao to feed him one bite after another.
It was not as unpleasant as expected, but instead soothed the turmoil in his stomach. Xiao Yichen drank a bowl, and when Shen Nanbao walked to the table, he sighed from the bottom of his heart, "Madam is really considerate."
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Nanbao poured another bowl of hangover soup and handed it to him. Seeing the embarrassment on Xiao Yichen's face, Shen Nanbao smiled appropriately, "Master, I drank so much wine yesterday. , just such a bowl of hangover soup is not enough."
On the night of the wedding, the father-in-law was so drunk that he asked his wife to stay alone in the empty room, and he was not afraid of making noises if he told her.
Xiao Yichen understood and understood how she behaved, so he let her feed him until the third bowl. Seeing how cooperative he was, Shen Nanbao stopped forcing him. He just put down the cup, sat on the edge of the bed and made love with his hands. He held it on his knees and looked at him solemnly.
"Are you going to drink so much next time?"
The posture was like that of a master admonishing students in an academy, but Xiao Yichen didn't feel any rudeness at all. He was just stunned for a moment, and then shook his head like a child who had done something wrong, "I won't drink anymore."
Shen Nanbao nodded, and this time his tone was softer than before, "No, drinking is harmful to your health. You can't be so indulgent anymore, not to mention the smell of alcohol."
Having said that, in fact, there is no greasy smell from the food on my body, nor is there any so-called alcohol smell.
I heard Chi Yu say that it was because before the father-in-law came back yesterday, he was afraid that the smell on his body would offend his wife, so he took the lead in taking a bath in the hot soup in the ear room.
But even in such detail, Shen Nanbao still had to say it.
After all, your body is your own, and if you are greedy for pleasure for a while, it will harm the future.
As for Xiao Yichen, seeing how serious she was, he felt that she already looked like a good wife on the first day. Even though his belly had just been rounded, the smile filled his eyes. He nodded happily, but was afraid of Shen Nan. Bao felt that he was smiling playfully, so he became serious again, and looked at her very solemnly, "I understand, I won't do it anymore."
At this time, Shen Nanbao called the servants and maids waiting outside to come in and wait for the two of them to get up in the morning.
Fengyue and Lvkui remained as before, helping Shen Nanbao to move to the dressing table to sit down.
This dressing table was carefully selected by Xiao Yichen from a pile of treasures, so every aspect of it shows his meticulous care.
Fengyue picked a comb from the makeup collection, gathered Shen Nanbao's hair and combed it carefully.
From the bronze mirror, Shen Nanbao could just see Xiao Yichen changing clothes there. The beautiful spring light shone on him, giving him the air of a noble man.
He was probably looking at him in ecstasy, not hiding the burning look in his eyes, which made Xiao Yichen turn his head, and a warmth spread between their eyes.
Those servants were all very discerning, and after looking at it like this, they couldn't see any emotion between the two of them, so they glanced around, then suppressed the smile in their mouths and stepped up their work.
In fact, during this free time, a servant girl should have come to Shen Nanbao to ask about Yuanpa. However, Xiao Yichen only got it from Yapo. He was not qualified to take it. What's more, everyone knew it well yesterday, so they all shut up. Keep your mouth shut.
The day after the big ceremony, it was time to visit Xiao Yichen's elders. Xiao Yichen had been alone since he was a child, so he only set up a spiritual tablet to pay homage.
The spiritual tablets are placed in a separate mourning hall in the east. It is not a very brilliant decoration, but it is more beautiful than ever. As soon as you step into the threshold and offer incense candles, white smoke as straight as a string rises to your eyes, like steaming heat. Xiao Yichen's eyes were wet.
He led Shen Nanbao to kneel on the futon and kowtowed three times solemnly, "Dad, mother, I have come to see you with my new daughter-in-law."
In fact, there is a lot to say.
But because I have so much to say, I don’t know where to start, just like a vast snowfield without any footprints, I hesitate to know where to start, for fear of starting from the beginning.
Shen Nanbao kowtowed three times, and his sweet voice rang out from the corner of his smiling mouth, "Father, mother, don't worry. With me here, I will set the stars and make sure the family earns a lot of money." It's very good. As for the young master, I will send Nuan Yuhan to you. I will do what he likes and avoid his taboos. I will only worry about his fat waist and body, and I will never worry about your spirit in heaven."
Although Xiao Yichen had just drank a few cups of hangover soup before, Xiao Yichen still felt his stomach water tingling, but it did not prevent him from feeling warm when he heard these words. He looked at the magic tablet again and laughed out loud. There is a seam.
"Don't worry, mother, I will remember what you told me before, and I will never let her down, as long as she becomes Mrs. Xiao, whom everyone admires."
In fact, needless to say, Shen Nanbao already felt so.
When they came out of the mourning hall, most of the time had passed. Feng Yue, who was standing under the dripping water, hurriedly came over and said, "Master and Madam, the kitchen has prepared food. Do you want to eat now or wait for me?"
After hearing what Xiao Yichen said now, Fengyue knelt down and quickly went down to appoint someone to open the banquet.
After finishing the meal, Shen Nanbao took a cup to rinse his mouth, and then he remembered and asked: "Yesterday when you were drinking, did you notice Jiang Fuyin? Didn't you say that Fuyin had met you, and now he knows about us?" I have some connection with Chen Fangyan, so I thought he should be coming over."
Xiao Yichen, who was sitting next to her across the coffee table, visibly paused, but did not answer first. He poured water back and forth in his mouth, wiped his mouth after spitting it out, and then replied: "No, not really. I heard that I have a troublesome secret that I can’t get away from.”
Shen Nanbao didn't know much about the things in the officialdom. After Xiao Yichen said so, she stopped asking.
The next two days passed peacefully, because there were two people in the house, and they didn't care about any interactions. Shen Nanbao concentrated on taking care of the people in the house. The younger ones and the clumsy ones did the sweeping, and the slightly older ones did the sweeping. The belt is smart and close enough to serve.
Just like that, he drove the slaves and maids around and prepared the grand gift for returning home. In the blink of an eye, two days slipped through his fingers.
Shen Nanbao and Xiao Yichen got up early the next day, led a group of people, and headed all the way to Zhao's house carrying eight gifts.
Shen Nanbao was sitting in the sedan looking at this posture, a little worried, "You are not afraid of poking Jiang Fuyin's eyes."
Xiao Yichen disagreed, "You have to come back in style, otherwise it will not only make people laugh at you, but also make your grandparents feel that I have treated you badly. What's more, without Chen Fangyan, I will be just an ordinary citizen, how can I tolerate it?" He attracts the attention of those who are busy with everything."
Shen Nanbao glanced at him, "You have to think about it and be careful about sailing the boat for ten thousand years. If you act like this, aren't you afraid of capsizing in the gutter?"
However, he did not mention this matter again, but instead talked about the expenses of the house, "From now on, we can't be so lavish anymore. I recently checked the accounts of the house, and I realized that you spend money just to buy people." Two hundred and twenty taels, not to mention the additions...what's the matter, are you planning to settle down here?"
The tone was slow and sweet, and it was very soothing.
But Xiao Yichen didn't relax at all and replied word by word: "The border is currently in turmoil, and all the efforts of the whole court are given to the Chi Na tribe. Actually, you and I... have no time to care about it. As for me, I'm probably married. , I am looking forward to returning to my hometown, and I don’t want to run around anymore. What’s more, your grandparents are so old and can’t stand such trouble. So, I plan to use the remaining money to buy shops and land and do some things. There is an income for buying, selling and leasing, which will be enough for my children to spend money in the future."
The last sentence made Shen Nanbao blush, and he didn't know how to answer it for a moment.
The sedan simply stopped at this time, and Shen Nanbao said hurriedly: "Master, please get off the sedan first, and then meet your grandparents first."
Then he was pushed and pushed out of the sedan chair.
The young lady was thin-skinned, and Xiao Yichen knew it, so he just smiled, stood by the sedan and stretched out his hand to help her down.
Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Zhao had received the letter and were waiting outside the door. Now they were watching them mixing honey with oil. They had seen each other before, but maybe it was because their identities were different, and their mood was also different. It always felt fresh. And rejoice.
The group of people entered the house happily.
As before, Mrs. Zhao and Xiao Yichen were talking about the tea ceremony in the front hall, while Mrs. Zhao and Shen Nanbao moved to the inner room.
As soon as she entered, Mrs. Zhao looked at Shen Nanbao from head to toe, and finally focused on the woman's hair accessories combed by Shen Nanbao. She nodded in a tone that was both gratifying and a little sad, "My Bao'er is finally like a woman." My lord."
