Su Xin was startled by his tone.
Shen Shi'an relaxed his expression before speaking: "I'm afraid that you will suffer a loss. Miss Lin is a good person and will not bully you, but others may not."
Su Xin raised the corners of her mouth and raised her eyebrows, "You are so smart, you will definitely not let me suffer."
"Do you think I am Miss Lin? You are acting coquettishly like this to me."
Shen Shi'an chuckled and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Su Xin poured the rice into the pot, sat down with Shen Shi'an, and said seriously: "We are all a family, we take care of each other, and no one can bully us."
"Then I'll teach you how to be a housekeeper. If someone bullies me in the future, you have to protect me. It's a pity that I don't know much..."
…
When Lin Shu returned home, the yard was filled with vegetables.
She moved the vegetables off the cart and said, "There are three more baskets here. Let's clean them together."
Then I went back to the house, filled out the forms in the account book, and started keeping accounts.
After eating, Lin Shu soaked in the bathtub to relax his body and mind.
A pair of hands pressed rhythmically on her shoulders, making her close her eyes in comfort.
Su Xin blushed, luckily the bathtub was deep, otherwise she would have been so embarrassed.
"My wife, Shi An seems to be very uneasy. How about you go to his place to rest tonight."
Lin Shu opened his eyes, changed direction, and faced him, "I remember I made an appointment with you to do something important tonight."
"Besides, he and I made an appointment to treat each other as guests."
Su Xin turned her head and looked in a panic, not knowing where to look, "I just think Shi An also likes the wife, and the wife should be equally exposed to rain and dew."
Lin Shu thought about Shen Shi'an's eyes, and there was no love in them.
She stood up, pulled Su Xin's clothes, and asked him to get closer.
The person in front of him was startled by the sound of water, his eyes widened suddenly, the expression on his face didn't know what to do, and his limbs had nowhere to rest.
No wonder the wife said that he looked ugly when he lost his temper. He must be extremely ugly like this.
"My wife...I..."
Lin Shu leaned close to his ear and breathed softly, "Did he tell you this?"
Su Xin closed her eyes and stammered: "No, it's just that Shi'an taught me about housekeeping today, and I seemed to have touched his sadness... uh uh..."
Ears... so itchy...
Lin Shu moved down to his neck, "So, you want me to comfort him?"
"Little Su Xin is really cruel. Doesn't it mean he doesn't like his wife?"
She opened her mouth and bit it, leaving a red mark.
Su Xin held the edge of the tub with both hands, feeling weak all over, and that feeling came again.
Lin Shu chuckled and pulled him in directly, "Give me a back rub."
"Su Xin, I like my wife the most."
His hands trembled slightly as he massaged the smooth back with sluggish movements. He was not very good at massaging his back, only his shoulders.
"Master Wife, are you comfortable?"
"not bad."
Su Xin was convinced, and her technique became more and more skillful. The hot water was steaming with vapor, filling the air all around.
As the water temperature gradually cooled down, Lin Shu stepped out of the tub, turned around and kissed his forehead, and said, "I'll wait for you."
"Um."
Su Xin lowered her head in response, then took off her soaked clothes and started scrubbing.
"Master Wife, do you want to blow out the oil fire?"
Lin Shu lay on his side, looking at the picture of a perfect woman leaving the bath, feeling very happy.
"No need to blow."
Su Xin turned around to get the handkerchief, walked to the bed, lay down obediently, covered her eyes, and then froze motionless.
Lin Shu raised his eyebrows, "What are you doing?"
A muffled voice came: "It was like this last night..."
Lin Shu stretched out his hand and picked up the square handkerchief. His innocent rabbit eyes were shaken as if he was frightened.
"Last night was different than tonight."
Throwing the handkerchief on the table, she pinched the flesh of the person beneath her.
"Not bad, I've gained weight."
Su Xin trembled, with a smile in her eyes, "As long as the wife likes it."
Lin Shu's eyes darkened, and he leaned down, and the thin and dull voice swirled in the two people's mouths and then disappeared.
Turn on the light!
…
Lin Shu got up early. It was too late last night, and Su Xin was still frowning in his sleep.
When she came to the yard, the two of them were already cleaning the yard and making breakfast.
Shen Shian was sitting in the yard, embroidering a handkerchief, and his every move was charming.
Lin Shu put the vegetables sprinkled with Lingquan water back into the vegetable basket.
"Miss Lin, let me help you."
Shen Shi'an put down his work, wrapped a few vegetables in his slender white fingers, and put them into the vegetable basket.
The sleeves expanded and contracted with the movements, revealing the white wrists.
Lin Shu glanced at him and said, "You'd better do embroidery. You have to carry my big hug a dozen times, which is quite tiring."
Shen Shi'an's movements were slightly stagnant, "I'm just afraid of soiling the Tsing Yi that Miss Lin gave me."
Lin Shu quickly collected the vegetables, which looked juicy and juicy.
"It doesn't matter, I've already finished it. I'll just buy the clothes again when they get dirty."
She moved the vegetable basket to the trolley and said to Shen Shi'an, who was still in a daze: "Su Xin is still sleeping. There will be house repairers coming later. Please take care of them."
Shen Shi'an ran into the kitchen and took out two freshly steamed buns, his fingers burning red.
"I understand. Miss Lin brought some steamed buns to eat on the road to cushion her stomach. We'll wait for you to come back."
Lin Shu tugged at the hem of his clothes and put the steamed bun on top, "Okay, you go back and apply some ointment."
After saying that, he tied the hem of his clothes into a knot and pushed the cart towards the county.
There was so much food on the cart that we could no longer drive the ox cart, so we had to walk.
The air was filled with morning mist, and some of the people carrying burdens I met on the road could not see their faces clearly.
There was no need for her to say hello, and she just pushed the cart on her way with her head down.
It was already light when we arrived at the city gate, and there was a long queue at the gate, which was different from usual.
Lin Shu also lined up and handed in three copper coins.
Before selling the vegetables, I spent three pennies first. It is really difficult to do business. If you want to make money, you have to spend money first.
When we got to the place where the market was set up, we spent another five cents to stop the trolley.
Lin Shu moved the vegetable basket underneath and took out various vegetables and put them on the trolley. It looked much better.
There were not many people around now, so she simply unknotted the hem of her clothes, took out the cold steamed buns and started to nibble on them.
"Girl, this dish of yours is fresh enough. How do you sell cucumbers?"
Someone came to the stall to ask about the price. Lin Shu swallowed the last mouthful of steamed buns and said, "Five cents per catty."
"Hey, five cents! You are crazy about money!"
The man was startled, and the men with bulk goods nearby spoke one by one, "This business is not about robbing money. Brother, my cucumbers cost a penny a pound."
"Yes, brother, that person's food just looks better. It tastes the same anyway, so why is it so expensive?"
Lin Shu directly picked up a cucumber and broke it lightly. The crisp sound was particularly loud among the crowd's clamor for customers.
A few water droplets quickly gathered at the broken part of the cucumber, and the fresh fragrance suddenly poured into the visitor's nostrils.
"My cucumber is different. It has a crisp and tender texture. I'll give it to you to try. If it doesn't taste good, there's no charge."
The man stopped and asked, "If it doesn't taste good, you don't need money?"
Lin Shu handed over a piece of cucumber, "If it doesn't taste good, it doesn't cost any money. You can try it."
The man took it and took a bite. The fresh taste of cucumber hit his forehead.
"Well, not bad, refreshing and pleasant... um..."
The man's expression suddenly changed, he covered his neck and bent over, looking like he was in pain.
"What's going on? Didn't you just eat a cucumber..."
"Isn't this poisoning..."
People around him took a step back and pointed around Lin Shu's stall.
