Chapter 36 Don’t look at anything inappropriate
Speaking of children, Chen Zhi and Xu Shuhe couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Xu Shuhe was relatively okay, but Chen Zhi was too shy and his ears turned red.

I thought we haven't even consummated the marriage yet, what about the baby?
"Thank you grandma and aunt for your kindness. I will keep it for my child."

After all, Xu Shuhe was mentally stronger, and he took the things with a smile.

Seeing this, Qingqiu said a few auspicious words and left.

After she left, Xu Shuhe took a deep breath, and then stuffed the brocade box into Meixiang's hands as if throwing away a hot yam.

"Take it and put it away carefully."

"Yes." Meixiang took it with a smile.

I just thought that the two masters had just gotten married and were still shy.

At this time, Xinyue came over with a smile and took the initiative to say, "Let me make the bed. The hot water is ready. The young master and the young mistress can take a bath and change clothes after a short rest."

To be honest, Chen Zhi originally wanted to leave, but when Xinyue spoke, he felt embarrassed to leave.

Thinking that it had been a while since I stayed here with Xu Shu, I coughed lightly and said, "Okay, you can go down."

After saying this, Xu Shuhe couldn't help but look up at him.

Chen Zhi's back suddenly tightened. After Xinyue left, he whispered, "It's better to spend the night as before."

"Um, okay." Xu Shuhe now realized it belatedly and felt a little embarrassed.

The main thing was that she was a little suspicious just now. When Chen Zhi said he wanted to stay, she wondered if he had that kind of intention, but it turned out that he didn't.

Well, the villain's heart is like a villain's heart, Xu Shuhe warned himself in his heart.

The two of them took a shower separately, and when Xu Shuhe came out, the bed in the room had been made.

After sending the two maids away, she began to make the bed for Chen Zhi, who slept on the small couch by the window.

When Chen Zhi came into the room, he saw a slender figure busy by the window.

Xu Shuhe didn't wash her hair today, so she tied it up into a single bun while bathing, and fixed it with two jade hairpins, revealing her smooth neck, clean and neat. She was only wearing a simple plain white nightgown and a belt tied on her loose dress, which made her waist look even more slender.

As the woman moved, her clothes occasionally stuck to her body, and traces of her bellyband and underpants were faintly visible, which seemed to be peach pink in color.

Chen Zhi's ears turned slightly red, and he immediately looked away, not daring to look again.

Although they are husband and wife in name, they are not in reality, and their current relationship is more like that of friends, so Chen Zhi always feels that it is insurmountable.

"Well, just leave me alone and let me do it myself." Chen Zhi coughed lightly.

Xu Shuhe turned to look at him without stopping what he was doing. "It's okay. It's almost ready. Just wait a moment."

After she said that, Chen Zhi couldn't refuse anymore, so he stood at the door curtain and waited.

After seeing her finish laying the floor and stand away, I walked over.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." Xu Shuhe smiled and said, "Go to bed early."

Chen Zhi nodded, turned around and blew out the candle next to him.

Xu Shuhe also went to the bed inside.

After a rustling noise, the candle inside was blown out and the room was plunged into complete darkness.

Somehow, Chen Zhi felt uneasy after lying down. He turned over and couldn't help but look at the bed inside. Of course, he couldn't see anything, including the curtain.

"Don't look at anything inappropriate. Don't look at anything inappropriate." Chen Zhi retracted his gaze and whispered to himself in his heart.

He took a few deep breaths before closing his eyes and falling asleep.

The next day.

Ju Rui Tang.

Chen Jin and Li Mingzhu had just stood up.

When the head maid Qiao Xing came in to help the two of them wash and dress, she whispered in Li Mingzhu's ear, "Young Madam, someone from below sent a message saying that someone from Wan Shuang Zhai left the mansion at night."

"Where did you go?" Li Mingzhu lowered her eyes and asked in a low voice.

Qiao Xing shook her head. "The gatekeeper couldn't get any information out of me."

"These bastards are trying to please both sides." Li Mingzhu snorted coldly, "After all, my mother-in-law has been in charge of the family for many years. Now that she has lost power, the people under her dare not completely betray her. When they come to me, they only say half of what they want to say."

Qiao Xing handed over a handkerchief to wipe her face, "Don't be upset, Madam. At least they knew about it and told us about it. It shows that they respect you in their hearts. They are quite sensible."

Hearing this, Li Mingzhu said nothing. She took the handkerchief, wiped her face, and threw it back into the copper basin.

Then he said calmly, "Well, I can manage the household alone this time, but it's only temporary. After a few days, the confinement will be lifted and I will have to go back. I don't bother to make a fuss about it."

"That's the truth." Qiao Xing instructed the maid to take the things away, and then took a comb to comb Li Mingzhu's hair. "Today, I saw that the Third Young Master's wife will be very troublesome. Madam may not be her opponent. If she defeats Madam, you can just take charge of the household affairs."

After hearing this, Li Mingzhu's expression eased a little and she curled her lips.

"My husband is the eldest son in the family. If my mother-in-law doesn't manage the household anymore, then I will be in charge. There is no reason to let the second son's wife manage the household."

"Young Madam is right." Qiao Xing immediately agreed.

But after cleaning up and going to the outer hall to have breakfast, Li Mingzhu felt annoyed again when she saw her husband's useless appearance.

"Aren't you going to the shop to do business today?"

"My wife is smart. She guessed it at once." Chen Jin smiled and served porridge to Li Mingzhu in a flattering manner. "Today is the birthday of the fourth son of the Zhao family. The Zhao family is in the fur business. They sent me an invitation to drink. How can I refuse?"

Upon hearing this, Li Mingzhu's face suddenly turned dark and she slammed the chopsticks in her hand on the table.

"What kind of person is Zhao's fourth son? He is idle all day long and is a well-known playboy in Qizhou City. The family business is managed by his eldest brother. What does it have to do with him? Your husband is hanging out with him and ruining his reputation. You should go to your own shop when you have time. If you keep going like this, the Chen family's assets will all belong to the third son in the future, and Yanjie and I will have to starve to death with you!"

Chen Jin's neck immediately shrank due to the scolding, and he looked embarrassed.

"It's not as serious as you say, ma'am."

"Okay, let me ask you how your family's shop is doing. As long as you can answer even a little, I'll let you go!" Li Mingzhu stared at him, but her face was obviously fierce, her eyes were red, and then she sniffed as if she was trying to hold back tears, "If you stay in the shop for an hour every day, I won't have to be so mean to you. I'll be the bad guy."

Faced with such a combination of soft and hard tactics, Chen Jin, a brainless man, didn't know what to do for a moment and had to compromise.

Just as Li Mingzhu had dealt with her good-for-nothing man and had not even taken a few bites of breakfast, Qiao Yue hurried in to report.

"Madam, the eldest daughter is back, looking very aggressive. She rushed straight to Fuyunju after entering the mansion, muttering something like she wanted to tear the third young lady's mouth off. The people below couldn't stop her. Look at this."

"What's going on? Go and stop them. My mother-in-law is under house arrest now and I'm in charge of the household. There are also guests from the Zhou family at home. If something bad happens, my father-in-law will be the next one to vent his anger on me!" Li Mingzhu stood up immediately.

Without caring about the situation, Chen Jin stuffed the bun into his mouth and walked out quickly.

She was also very annoyed, and now she had guessed what Feng had sent someone out of the house for last night.
