The Young Lady of the General’s House - Chapter 33
Chapter Thirty Three
Shen Jin couldn’t get up at all the next morning. Chu Xiuming held the shower in his arms, and even the food was put on the bed to eat. Mother Zhao had already cleaned up the bed.
“Madam really doesn’t need the general to accompany you?” Mother Zhao cooked Shen Jin with red dates and millet porridge. She did not expect that the general was kicked out of the room by his wife on the first morning of the wedding, thinking of seeing the general’s helpless look. Mother Zhao also felt funny in her heart.
Shen Jin’s cheeks are flushed, her eyes are moist and affectionate, her red lips that are already fleshy and swollen, her eyes still have traces of crying. When Mother Zhao mentioned Chu Xiuming, she remembered what happened last night, and she was embarrassed. Astringent, Chu Xiuming lied to her to say so many shameful things while she was drinking.
Seeing Shen Jin’s appearance, Madam Zhao smiled and said nothing, but took care of her and said with breakfast, “The general specially ordered the kitchen to make rouge ham at noon, and the scorched fried quail that my wife likes.”
Shen Jin’s eyes brightened, and he couldn’t help but sat up, but immediately fell back on the cushion after a sore waist. Not only the waist but also the hard-to-talk area was also aching, and his legs were also weak.
Mother Zhao had a smile in her eyes, thinking about when she would be able to hold the young master, but don’t be impatient, it’s best to wait for Shen Jin to be a little older, and be safer at that time.
When Chu Xiuming came in, he saw that it was not only because of what Madam Zhao said, Shen Jin was laughing constantly. The food had been removed, and the large cushion behind him made Shen Jin extraordinarily petite. Seeing Chu Xiuming, Shen Jin Jin’s face and neck turned red, looking cute and pitiful.
Grandma Zhao smiled, and she quit with a wink. Chu Xiuming sat on the side of the bed, holding Shen Jin’s hand and said, “Why don’t you look at me?”
Shen Jin turned his head and looked inside the bed. Only then did he notice that the canopy bed was actually made of huanghuali. The workmanship was extraordinarily exquisite. Chu Xiuming chuckled out, “My deed, human relationship is the normal relationship between husband and wife. Shy.”
“Don’t say it.” Shen Jin stretched out her hand to cover Chu Xiuming’s mouth. She thought of the pamphlet her mother showed her before she got married. It was shameful enough, but…there weren’t so many tricks, it was shameful. Great.
Chu Xiuming kissed Shen Jin’s palm, “I’ll rub it for you.”
Shen Jin nodded and then lay down on the bed. She wore a red bedclothes embroidered with acacia flowers, which was specially made for her by Concubine Chen, because it was worn for sleeping, and she was made a little generous. , I didn’t have a chance to wear the things that happened when I first married. I was found out by Grandma Zhao some time ago. It was quite appropriate.
Concubine Chen has taken all aspects into consideration, and she has a motherly heart, wishing to accompany her daughter to the border to take care of her, as if she did not forget to prepare gifts for Chu Xiuming, not for the status of Chu Xiuming Yongningbo, but to please Chu. Xiu Ming, I hope he can treat his daughter kindly.
I am afraid that Concubine Chen would not have imagined that her seemingly stupid daughter would have such a blessing. It happened to meet Chu Xiuming’s eyes, and she was more courageous to be spoiled, even Princess Rui never dared to directly Chase King Rui out of the house.
Shen Jin was comfortably pressed by Chu Xiuming, and he grunted twice before complaining, “Don’t think I can’t remember when I was drunk, you beat me yesterday.”
“Oh?” Chu Xiuming slowly pressed his beautiful fingers on Shen Jin’s waist and said, “I hit you?”
Just as Shen Jin wanted to continue speaking, he heard Chu Xiuming continue to say, “So what? I’ll beat you next time I don’t listen.”
“…” For the first time, Shen Jin was speechless. He turned to look at Chu Xiuming accusingly, and felt that how could Chu Xiuming be so rascal in a different person.
Chu Xiuming raised his eyebrows and asked with a solemn expression, “Have you heard?”
Shen Jin moved her lips and said grievedly, “It’s still unreasonable…” The words that were obviously accusations were a little soft, but they seemed to be acting like a baby.
Chu Xiuming smiled and touched Shen Jin’s head, because she didn’t get her hair up before getting up, but tied it loosely behind her. Seeing Chu Xiuming smiled, Shen Jin said with confidence, “It can’t be like this. .”
“Okay.” Chu Xiuming stopped teasing Shen Jin. “Is it better?”
Shen Jin rolled over cautiously, feeling more comfortable, and nodded and said, “I’m asking Mother Zhao to help me freshen up.”
Chu Xiuming replied. Shen Jin wouldn’t know that Chu Xiuming used internal force when she pressed her waist just now. This life-saving thing was used on a small waist pain. If someone knows it, it’s okay. Will be scolded as a prodigal.
Grandma Zhao came in soon, and taking the maid Anping, Shen Jin sat in front of the dressing table and discovered that the mercury mirror in the room turned out to be a mercury mirror. The mercury mirror almost equal to his height clearly showed Shen Jin’s appearance.
She had only seen such a mirror in Shen Qi’s dowry, and it was not so big!
Shen Jin looked at herself in the mirror very rarely. Chu Xiuming sat and watched her little lady dressing up. Shen Jin’s skin was so good that she didn’t need the powder at all, her cheeks were flushed, and her lips were dark. The big apricot eyes looked innocent and naive, but because they had just learned about love, they naturally showed a bit of flattery, which was indescribable.
Mother Zhao and An Ping waited on Shen Jin for a long time, naturally knowing how to dress Shen Jin, simple and chic butterflies dangled in their hair, and a round pink pearl fell between their eyebrows.
Chu Xiuming didn’t have the slightest impatience, with a smile in his eyes. Sometimes he felt that if his father and his brothers were still alive, he might choose another life instead of living like himself at all.
Sometimes Chu Xiuming had forgotten what he was like before. He remembered that his brother once said that his brother was a lazy and uncertain person.
“Okay.” Shen Jin chose the bracelet and put it on her hand, then got up and looked at Chu Xiuming and asked, “Where are you taking me?”
Chu Xiuming’s eyes flashed and he returned to normal. He also stood up and took Shen Jin’s hand and said, “Take you to see the storeroom at home.”
“Oh, oh.” Shen Jin responded. She peeked at Chu Xiuming a few times. The low moment just now seemed to be a mistake. Since Chu Xiuming didn’t want to say it, Shen Jin just pretended not to notice.
Chu Xiuming said, “The Chu family has guarded the border for decades, so many things are placed here.”
Shen Jin nodded, and the pearl on her forehead shook with her movements, “So is the mercury mirror?”
“My mother’s dowry.” Chu Xiuming explained.
Shen Jin was stunned just as he wanted to nod his head, and took La Chu Xiuming’s hand and said, “Then let’s put it back.”
Chu Xiuming saw that Shen Jin’s hair was pulled up, and it was a pity that he couldn’t rub her head any more, and said softly, “Mother said that he would leave it to his daughter-in-law.”
Shen Jin let out a cry. Some didn’t know what to say, so he looked around. Only after seeing that every part of the yard was the same as she thought, and even better than she thought, Chu Xiuming slowed down with Shen Jin After a while, he said, “Do you like it?”
“I like it.” Shen Jin was already happy and didn’t know what to say, no wonder the craftsmen were only busy here, because Chu Xiu planned to do it tomorrow.
Chu Xiuming didn’t say anything, and led Shen Jin to the warehouse, “Make a note of the location, and take what you want from here in the future. I will ask Mother Zhao to give you the warehouse booklet later.”
“Okay.” Shen Jin responded.
After opening the door of the warehouse, Chu Xiuming put the bunch of keys in Shen Jin’s hand, then held Shen Jin’s hand with his big hand, and said, “It’s all yours.”
Shen Jin’s lips moved, and his heart was warm, dimples appeared on his cheeks and asked, “Do you have private money hidden?” His attitude was taken for granted.
“Heh.” Chu Xiuming was amused, fearing that Shen Jin didn’t even notice the uneasy under his eyes, just like a little cat who was tentatively trying to show off his power but was afraid of being rejected and bullied, “Come back. Just give it to you, and you can take a look at the account in the mansion.”
“I don’t want to worry about it.” Shen Jin got a satisfactory answer, and the whole person became bright, and continued to follow Chu Xiuming into it.
“Then it doesn’t matter.” Chu Xiuming said nonchalantly, “It’s better to leave it to Steward Wang and the others.”
Shen Jin became happy now. Seeing that they didn’t follow Grandma Zhao, they took out their hands and hung them on Chu Xiuming’s back. He dragged them away. Chu Xiuming hugged her waist with his backhand, lest she too Tired continued, “I always need to know.”
“Good.” Shen Jin obediently responded.
After walking to the door inside, Shen Jin got off Chu Xiuming. Chu Xiuming taught Shen Jin to recognize the key. After opening the door, he said, “This is my great-grandmother’s dowry.”
Shen Jin looked at the things inside. They were all large pieces of furnishings. There was even a pair of half-person-high enamel-carved jade vases. After looking around, Chu Xiuming took her to another warehouse. The last thing he saw was Chu. Xiu Ming’s mother.
Putting down the hollow carved incense burner, Shen Jin found that the leftovers in these warehouses were large pieces or had the mark of the palace, just like this incense burner. If these were the dowry of all the female relatives of the Chu family, there should be many more. Small things and jewelry.
Chu Xiuming said, “There are still some fabrics, which are placed in the warehouse of the mansion while they are being cleaned up this time.”
“Oh.” Shen Jin didn’t doubt that Chu Xiuming was lying. Since he said that this was all the dowry, it was all, it should be said that it was all the rest, but where did those go?
For some reason, Shen Jin suddenly thought of the five hundred thousand taels of silver that Princess Rui had given him. There was an incredible guess, could it be that Chu Xiuming was actually short of silver? Those things have been replaced with silver? These are the ones that are not easy to make or cannot be made?
But what does Chu Xiuming want so much money for?
Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Jin and glanced at him for a while, with a look of confusion on his face, suddenly thought of a sentence his father had said, never underestimate any woman, sometimes they are willing to believe your lie, but they are just willing to let You are just cheating. When they are unwilling, you will know how smart they are.
“It’s not the time to tell you, don’t try.” Chu Xiuming re-shook Shen Jin’s hand and said.
Shen Jin really put away the doubts on his face, and looked at Chu Xiuming innocently. Chu Xiuming squeezed her nose gently and said, “Stupid girl.”
“I’m telling you, I’m smart.” Shen Jin retorted with a wrinkled nose, “Stop calling me stupid.”
Chu Xiuming led Shen Jin out, “Forget the five-spice chicken with sauce at noon.”
Shen Jin pursed his lips and looked at Chu Xiuming accusingly. He saw that Chu Xiuming continued to walk forward without squinting. He took a few deep breaths, his small chest bulged, and he was about to leave the warehouse for a long time. He grievedly said, “Compared with my husband, I am a little stupid.” He also added a few words specially.
Chu Xiuming couldn’t help laughing anymore, and Shen Jin stomped his feet in anger, helpless.
