Shen Jin couldn't get up at all the next morning, and Chu Xiuming took the bath with his arms in his arms. Even the food was served on the bed, and Mammy Zhao had already made up the bed.
"Madam really doesn't need to be accompanied by the general?" Madam Zhao stewed red dates and millet porridge for Shen Jin. She never thought that the general would be kicked out of the room by his wife on the first morning of their wedding. Thinking of seeing the general's helpless look, Zhao Nanny also felt it was funny.
Shen Jin's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were moist and affectionate, her already plump red lips were also a little red and swollen, and her eyes still showed traces of crying. When Mother Zhao mentioned Chu Xiuming, she remembered what happened last night, feeling ashamed and embarrassed. Chu Xiuming tricked her into saying so many embarrassing things while she was drinking.
Seeing Shen Jin's appearance, Nanny Zhao smiled and didn't say anything else. Instead, she took care of her breakfast and said, "The general specially ordered the kitchen to make rouge ham for lunch, as well as the charred fried quail that Madam likes."
Shen Jin's eyes lit up, and she sat up involuntarily, but immediately her waist became sore and she fell back on the cushion. Not only her waist, but also the hard-to-speak place was sore, and her legs were terribly weak.
Zhao Momo's eyes were full of smiles, and she was thinking about when she would be able to hug the young master, but don't be impatient, it's better to wait until Shen Jin is a little older, and then it will be safer.
When Chu Xiuming came in, he saw Shen Jin who was laughing non-stop not only because of what Nanny Zhao said, but the food had already been removed, and the big cushion behind him made Shen Jin extraordinarily petite. Jin's face and neck turned red, looking cute and pitiful.
Zhao Nanny smiled, then left with a wink, Chu Xiuming sat by the bed, held Shen Jin's hand and said, "Why don't you look at me?"
Shen Jin turned his head and looked inside the bed, only to notice that the canopy bed was actually made of huanghuali, and the workmanship was extremely exquisite. Chu Xiuming chuckled softly, "My dear, human relations are 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. .
Chu Xiuming kissed Shen Jin's palm, "I'll rub it for you."
Shen Jin nodded, and then lay down on the bed. She was wearing a red pajamas embroidered with acacia flowers, which was specially made for her by Concubine Chen. Because it was worn for sleeping, it was made a little loose , Those things that happened when I first got married, I didn't have a chance to wear them. I was found out by Zhao Momo some time ago, which is quite suitable.
Concubine Chen has considered all aspects, with a motherly heart, she wished she could accompany her daughter to the border to take care of her, as if she did not forget to prepare a gift for Chu Xiuming, not because of Chu Xiuming's status as Uncle Yongning, but to please Chu Xiuming, I hope he can treat his daughter well.
I'm afraid that Concubine Chen would never have imagined that her seemingly stupid daughter would have such a blessing. She just met Chu Xiuming's eyes, and she became much more courageous to be favored. Even Princess Rui never dared to directly Drive King Rui out of the house.
Shen Jin was pressed very comfortably by Chu Xiuming, and she hummed a few times before complaining, "Don't think I don't remember when I'm drunk, you hit me yesterday."
"Oh?" Chu Xiuming pressed his beautiful fingers slowly on Shen Jin's waist and said, "Hit you?"
Just as Shen Jin wanted to continue, he heard Chu Xiuming continue, "So what? I'll hit you next time if you don't obey me."
"..." Shen Jin was speechless for the first time, turned his head and looked at Chu Xiuming with accusations, and felt that Chu Xiuming had changed, how could he be such a rascal.
Chu Xiuming raised his eyebrows, and asked with a serious face, "Did you hear that?"
Shen Jin moved her lips, and said aggrievedly, "It's still unreasonable..." The words were obviously accusations, but they were a little limp, as if they were acting like a baby.
Chu Xiuming touched Shen Jin's head with a smile, because she didn't get up, her hair was not tied up, but tied loosely behind her. Seeing Chu Xiuming smile, Shen Jin said with confidence, "It can't be like this. .”
"Okay." Chu Xiuming stopped teasing Shen Jin, "Is it better?"
Shen Jin turned over carefully, feeling much more comfortable, she nodded and said, "I asked Nanny Zhao to help me wash up."
Chu Xiuming responded, Shen Jin would not know that when Chu Xiuming pressed her waist just now, he used internal strength, and such a life-saving thing was used on a small backache. Will be called a prodigal.
Nanny Zhao came in quickly, bringing her maid Anping, and Shen Jin sat in front of the dressing table only to realize that there was a mercury mirror in the room, and the mercury mirror, which was almost as tall as she was, clearly reflected Shen Jin's appearance.
She had only seen such a mirror in Shen Qi's dowry, and it wasn't this big!
Shen Jin looked at himself in the mirror very rarely, while Chu Xiuming sat aside and watched his little lady dress up. Shen Jin's skin was so good that she didn't need to put on those powders at all, her cheeks were flushed, her lips were not smudged and vermilion, The big almond eyes look innocent and naive, but because they just met the affair, they naturally reveal a bit of coquettishness, which is indescribably alluring.
Nanny Zhao and Anping have served Shen Jin for a long time, so they naturally know how to dress up Shen Jin, with a simple and chic butterfly swing in her hair, and a round pink pearl between her eyebrows.
Chu Xiuming was not impatient at all, with a smile in his eyes. Sometimes he would feel that if his father and brothers were still alive, he might choose another life instead of living a life that was not like himself at all.
Sometimes Chu Xiuming even forgot what he was like before. He remembered that his elder brother once said that his younger brother was a lazy and uncertain person.
"Okay." Shen Jin chose the bracelet to put on his hand, got up and looked at Chu Xiuming and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
Chu Xiuming's eyes flickered and he returned to normal. He also stood up and took Shen Jin's hand and said, "Take you to see the warehouse at home."
"Oh." Shen Jin responded, and she secretly glanced at Chu Xiuming. The moment of depression 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 stored here."
Shen Jin nodded, and the pearl on her forehead swayed with her movements, "Is that mercury mirror too?"
"My mother's dowry." Chu Xiuming explained.
Just as Shen Jin wanted to nod, he was stunned, took La Chuxiuming's hand and said, "Then let's put it back."
Seeing that Shen Jin's hair was all rolled up, Chu Xiuming regretted that he couldn't rub her head anymore, and said softly, "Mother said she would leave it for her daughter-in-law."
Shen Jin let out a sigh, and didn't know what to say, so she looked around, only to find that every part of the yard was the same as she thought, or even better than she thought, Chu Xiuming followed Shen Jin to slow down. He stepped forward and said, "Do you like it?"
"I like it." Shen Jin was already so happy that he didn't know what to say, no wonder those craftsmen were only busy here, it turned out that Chu Xiuming had already planned it.
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything else, and led Shen Jin to the warehouse, "Remember the location, and take whatever you want from here. Later, I will ask Mother Zhao to give you the warehouse brochure."
"Okay." Shen Jin agreed.
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, her heart felt warm, dimples appeared on her cheeks and she asked, "Do you have any private money hidden?" It was a matter of course.
"Oh." Chu Xiuming was amused, probably Shen Jin didn't notice the unease in his eyes, like a kitten who is testing, wants to show off but is afraid of being rejected and bullied, "Come back I'll give it to you, and you can also look at the account in the mansion."
"I don't want to care about it." Shen Jin got a satisfactory answer, her whole body brightened, and she continued to follow Chu Xiuming inside.
"Then don't care." Chu Xiuming said indifferently, "It's better to leave it to Butler Wang and the others."
Only then did Shen Jin become happy. Seeing that Nanny Zhao and the others didn't follow in, she pulled out her hand and hung her whole body on Chu Xiuming's back, and was dragged away by him. Tired continued, "You have to know anyway."
"Okay." Shen Jin obediently agreed.
After reaching the door inside, Shen Jin got down from Chu Xiuming. Chu Xiuming taught Shen Jin to recognize the key, opened the door and said, "This is my great-grandmother's dowry."
Shen Jin looked at the things inside, they were all large decorations, even a pair of large enamel and emerald vases half a person's height. After looking around, Chu Xiuming took her to another warehouse. Xiuming's mother's.
Putting down the hollowed-out incense burner in his hand, Shen Jin found that the things left in these storerooms were large items or with palace seals, just like this incense burner. If these were the dowries of all the female family members of the Chu family, there should be many more Small items and jewelry.
Chu Xiuming opened the mouth and said, "There are still some fabrics, and I put them in the warehouse of the mansion while I clean them up this time."
"Oh." Shen Jin didn't doubt that Chu Xiuming was lying. Since he said it 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, and had an incredible guess, could it be that Chu Xiuming was actually short of silver? Those things were exchanged for silver? The rest of these are just bad shots or impossible shots
But what does Chu Xiuming want so much money for
Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Jinyi secretly looking at him for a while, with a puzzled look on his face, and suddenly thought of a sentence his father once said, never underestimate any woman, sometimes they are willing to believe your lies, but they are willing to let you lie. You just lie, when they don't want to, you will know how smart they are.
"Now is not the time to tell you, there is no need to test it." Chu Xiuming said while holding Shen Jin's hand again.
Sure enough, Shen Jin put away the doubts on his face, and looked at Chu Xiuming innocently. Chu Xiuming pinched her nose lightly and said, "Stupid girl."
"Let me tell you, I'm smart." Shen Jin wrinkled her nose and retorted, "Stop calling me stupid."
Chu Xiuming led Shen Jin out, "Forget about the five-spice sauce chicken at noon."
Shen Jin pursed his lips, looked at Chu Xiuming with accusation, and saw that Chu Xiuming continued to walk forward without squinting, took a few deep breaths, his small chest bulged, and he was about to leave the warehouse for a long time He said aggrievedly, "Compared to my husband, I'm a bit stupid." He even emphasized some words.
Chu Xiuming couldn't help laughing out loud anymore, and Shen Jin stomped his feet angrily, but there was nothing he could do.
