Chapter 122 General’s Wife VS Cold-Hearted Emperor (8)

On his way back home, Zhou Yan kept thinking about the emperor's words.

Thinking of Tang Yu, he turned out to be his childhood savior. All the vague things in the past became extremely clear at this moment.

That's why every time he talked to Tang Huan about the details of his childhood, Tang Huan would always hesitate.

He just thought that Tang Huan didn't want to recall his childhood.

After all, grown-up people will find some things from their childhood embarrassing.

He didn't think much about it.

Think of the emperor's words.

Zhou Yan pulled up a smile. He saw a different Tang Yu today. She was not the submissive and lifeless woman in his impression.

He saw her throwing a tantrum at the old lady and Tang Huan by the river that day.

At that moment, my heart was filled with a rare surge of excitement and tenderness.

Perhaps, what the emperor said was correct, and he and Tang Yu might indeed be a perfect match.

He had somewhat resented this arranged marriage over the past five years, but now... he didn't seem to be as averse to it as before.

He squeezed the horse's belly tightly, and the horse started to gallop. He was ready to leave overnight.

Now I feel a little reluctant to part with Tang Yu.

Only a few hours had passed since he left home in the morning, but he actually felt the feeling of missing someone.

Zhou Yan was excited, he just wanted to see her now.

Even he himself couldn't explain why he clearly didn't like Tang Yu and even hated her in the past five years.

But now, so much has changed in just one day.

The embroiderer Xiaotao found was very capable. With enough money, she was able to make a set of pajamas in just a few hours.

The materials and money were delivered in the morning, and it took only a few hours to complete the work by the afternoon.

Tang Yu took the men's pajamas that Xiao Tao brought back and looked at it.

"Not bad, but if you don't look closely you can't tell it was made in a hurry."

Xiaotao was also very surprised.

It turns out that with the money in place, a piece of clothing can be made so quickly.

"That's right, young lady. When I went to get the clothes, the owner of the embroidery shop said that since you gave her a lot of money, all the best embroiderers in the whole shop stopped embroidering today. Seven of them worked hard on this nightgown. Sure enough, it was finished very quickly, and the embroidery was not bad."

After Tang Yu finished looking at the pajamas, he felt bored and threw them aside.

"Of course. Money can make the devil work, let alone people. As long as there is enough money, there is nothing that can't be done."

Although it took Xiaoyuan almost a day to digest the fact that the young lady wanted to make pajamas for Zhou Yan, even though she didn't make them herself, she still spent money on them.

The young lady doesn't have much money in her hands. This was all given by her aunt when she got married. Otherwise, the young lady would definitely not have had much money when she got married.

Now most of them have been made into clothes for the heartless Zhou Yan, and Xiao Yuan is extremely heartbroken.

Tang Yu smiled and said, "Xiao Yuan is angry again, but these are all your lady's baits. Only with baits can you catch big fish. These will all come back in the future."

Xiao Yuan believed in Tang Yu unconditionally. When she heard that all these would be returned in the future, her eyes lit up.

"That's good. Even if it's lost, it's much better than giving it to that heartless person."

"What do you mean much stronger? Much stronger than who?" Zhou Yan's voice suddenly sounded at the door of the room.

Tang Yu stood up calmly. Xiao Yuan closed her mouth and rolled her eyes, saying nothing and ignoring him.

Tang Yu walked lightly with lotus steps, her long black hair tied up in a bun. If someone else wore this simple white jade hairpin, it might seem shabby, but when worn on Tang Yu's head, it not only did not look monotonous, but instead added a sense of ethereal and otherworldly air.

She was wearing a light blue dress with a white gauze outer robe on the outside and a corset around her waist. Her waist was so slender that it could be held in one hand, which made her look even more charming and seductive. Although her eyes were cold, there was an inexplicable desire in her body.

Make people want to stop.

"I'm sorry for not welcoming you here. I wonder what brings you here? It's almost dark."

Zhou Yan didn't answer, nor did he go into the room. When he wanted to go in, he was blocked by Tang Yu who suddenly walked out of the door.

"I, I have to go to Jiangnan tonight. Jiangnan is plagued by serious banditry and corrupt officials. The people are living in misery. His Majesty has sent me to solve this problem. You..." Zhou Yan didn't ask you if you would miss me.

It seems very pretentious.

He can't do it.

Then he realized his loss of composure and his face became serious.

"By the way, your housekeeper rights were taken away by mother a few days ago. I will go and tell her to return the housekeeper rights to you later. I will probably be away from the general's mansion for half a month at the shortest, or possibly several months at the longest."

"I have already told my mother in advance that he will not embarrass you when I am not at the general's mansion, so you can rest assured."

Tang Yu nodded calmly, then looked up and met Zhou Yan's eyes, which were filled with a burning heat that he himself was not aware of.

Tang Yu pretended to be shy, quickly looking away, his cheeks flushed.

"Xiao Tao, quickly take out that pajamas, the golden one!" Tang Yu turned his head and looked at the handsome Zhou Yan again.

Zhou Yan was surprised and delighted.

"You, you also prepared pajamas for me? Did you make them yourself?"

She nodded and shook her head slightly, raised her handkerchief and gently wiped her cheek.

"It's not all my doing. Xiaoyuan and Xiaotao also helped." She lied without thinking.

Zhou Yan held the clothes in his hands and smiled from ear to ear, feeling inexplicably sweet in his heart. His clothes had all been made by the embroiderers in the general's mansion since he was a child, and no one around him had ever made clothes for him personally.

He didn't notice that he was losing his composure over a piece of pajamas.

Although his expression was still cold, his eyes were full of surprise and stupidity, and when he looked at Tang Yu, they were sparkling like a big dog.

Tang Yu had a shy smile on his face, full of affection, and his eyes were charming and alluring.

Tang Yu's legs were sore from standing at the door.

Zhou Yan was still admiring the pajamas, unable to let them go. He stroked them gently with his rough big hands, fearing that he would accidentally damage them.

Tang Yu said calmly, "General, didn't you say that you were ordered by His Majesty to go to Jiangnan to handle a case? And you have to leave overnight, so shouldn't you go see the old lady now? If you stay with me all the time, the old lady will make things difficult for me later."

Zhou Yan came back to his senses and realized that he had been standing there for such a long time.

He lowered his eyes and stared at Tang Yu's cold and beautiful face, wanting to remember her clearly in his mind.

That's why I missed the time.

"Well, okay, I'll go find my mother right away. Don't worry, I won't let your mother detain you. The same goes for the housekeeper power. I'll feel at ease if I leave it in your hands."

Tang Yu nodded obediently.

Zhou Yan's heart became even softer.

*
In Kanghui Hall, Zhou Yan was still carefully holding the pajamas given by Tang Yu in his hand.

A smile actually appeared on the cold and expressionless face.

Tang Huan was also following the old lady, sitting next to her.

"Yan'er, what are you holding in your hand?"
