Every time I wear it quickly, there are always big guys giving it away.

Chen Jia curled up in the quilt leisurely. She was weak and the night was very cold, so she felt very comfortable curled up in the quilt.

However, the maids and servants of the two men left one after another, but the man had no intention of leaving. Instead, he walked closer and closer to the bed.

Chen Jia's eyes widened. Could it be what she thought?

As expected, he slowly took off his outer and inner garments, leaving only a simple dark undergarment, and looked down at her, "Madam, please make way——"

After calling her Madam, he saw her blushing face, which seemed to be smoking. He felt quite amused and called her again, "Madam—"

"Well..." She responded while slowly moving inside, "Is that enough?"

If you retreat any further, it will be stuck to the wall!

"That's enough. Your husband is not that lenient—"

He laughed in silence, climbed onto the bed calmly, stretched out his long arms, and embraced the person who was huddled against the wall in a wronged manner. His movements were as natural as could be.

"Ah——" she exclaimed in a low voice, and was unexpectedly embraced in someone's arms, "I'm still sick——" She was really scared!

"I know." He reached out and patted her back as a comfort, resting his chin on her head, "Madam, please relax. Your husband is not the kind of person who would be blinded by lust..."

"But, what if the disease spreads to you?" Her worries were not unreasonable, but he felt a little tired. He slowly closed his eyes and murmured: "I am healthy and will not be affected by the disease. It's late at night, go to sleep--"

"But I——" I'm not used to it!

She twisted her body and found that the other person's arms were like a solid iron barrel. Small movements were okay, but any more would be impossible!

She became discouraged, stopped struggling, felt tired, and soon fell asleep.

After a while, there was no one around and the room was silent.

Yun Zheng opened the door very quietly and came in, extinguishing the candle on the table.

"Madam is much better now. If you continue to take the medicine prescribed by me for a while, your body will surely become stronger."

The court physician has gray hair. He can understand the patient's condition just by feeling the pulse through the drawn bed curtain. He is really amazing!

Jixiang sent the court doctor away, and Ruyi helped her master sit up. Seeing that her master's eyes were fixed on the window, she said, "Madam, can I help you sit on the small couch by the window?"

This makes it convenient for the lady to enjoy the scenery outside.

Chen Jia nodded and, with the help of Ruyi, moved to the couch by the window.

After Ruyi helped his master sit down, he opened two heavy carved windows. After opening the windows, one could not see directly outside, but there was a layer of transparent colored glass that shone with five-color luster.

Chen Jia looked at the thin layer of colored glaze installed on the window with curiosity, "Is this colored glaze?"

Ruyi was very normal, "Madam is very knowledgeable, it's Liuli!"

Colored glass is an offering made to the emperor. Not every palace in the huge imperial palace is worthy of being equipped with colored glass. Chen Jia is not qualified either, but she has seen it in the palaces of His Majesty and the Queen.

And in this city close to the border, in the Prince Xi's mansion, in her husband's courtyard, she saw such luxurious yet ordinary decorations.

Ruyi explained attentively: "The colored glaze was brought from the Western Regions. This city is a must-go place when going to Kyoto from the Western Regions. Foreigners love to trade colored glaze here. After a long journey to Kyoto, there is very little colored glaze left..."

Well, we sell them here; but in Kyoto, things become more valuable because they are scarce.

This business is clearly handled by these foreign people!

"Madam, you may not know that the foreigners come here at a fixed time every year. They bring many rare things with them, and many people are willing to exchange with them. If you count the days, it's not far away."

As Ruyi spoke, she covered her master's knees with a thin blanket and massaged her legs.

Her thoughtfulness and meticulousness are pervasive.

Jixiang prepared the medicine and brought it into the house. He saw Ruyi massaging her master's legs. When she lowered her head, her eyes flashed. When she raised her head, her face was full of smiles again. "Madam, it's time to take the medicine."

She blew on the spoon and fed the baby one spoonful at a time, not letting her wife do anything.

Ruyi wanted to take her away, but she was wrong!

She is auspicious and curled terribly!

Tomorrow he will go to visit the King of Xi and Queen Xi, whom he has never met before. Chen Jia couldn't eat in the evening and looked worried.

Ruyi sees it and is anxious in his heart. Thinking too much is not a good sign!

But she was just a servant and could not overstep the boundaries. She could only try her best to remind the lady of the relationships and preferences of the people in the mansion without making it clear so that she could be mentally prepared.

After finishing his work, Xi Changkong came back and asked habitually, "How was your meal today, Madam?"

Ruyi immediately lowered her head and replied, "My lord, the Madam is fine during the day, but she uses less at night."

Xi Changkong is known for his intelligence, and he could guess about 80% of the answer with just a quick thought. "Tell the kitchen to prepare some more hot dishes, and try something different!"

"Yes——" Ruyi went as he was told.

Inside the room, Chen Jia was sitting on the bed reading a book. The book was exactly what Ruyi had taken from the study. When she saw her husband come in, she put the book down, sat up, and her face was rosy.

He glanced at the title of the book. It was a collection of miscellaneous notes describing the customs and culture of the Western Regions. It had been lying in the study, gathering dust. Unexpectedly, she was interested in it.

Chen Jia lowered her head as he looked at her, and subconsciously stroked the hair hanging down her cheek with her hand, "I have nothing to do, so I just took a look casually--"

"Like to see it? There are still some there. I'll ask Yunzheng to get them for you when the time comes."

Yun Zheng, who was inexplicably cueed behind Xi Changkong, was confused: Ah, what happened?

After Yun Zheng and Xia Wei left, Yun Zheng scratched his head and said, "I am getting more and more confused about you, Master!"

He is so fickle, weird and scary now!

He had been cleaning the study, so how come he didn't know there were still "some" in it?

The book in the lady's hand was lucky enough to survive. If the lady didn't take it to read today, he would have thrown it away tomorrow!

Xia Wei comforted him: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. The important thing is to quickly find a book that Madam likes!"

Yun Zheng was furious: "Where can I find it!"

Xia Wei signaled with her eyes, and seeing that Yun Zheng still didn't understand, she leaned closer and whispered softly: "Have you forgotten that there is another master in the mansion who likes to read this type of book?"

Yun Zheng suddenly realized: "Young Miss——"

Xi Changan can be said to be an enthusiast of all kinds of miscellaneous books. She loves to travel everywhere and has collected a lot of miscellaneous books!

The book in the lady's hand is what she dropped last time!

Although Yun Zheng was very tempted, he thought about the young lady's vindictive character and did not dare to act: "This is not a good idea -"

Xia Wei added: "If you have to offend someone, do you want to offend the young master or the young lady?"

Is this still a choice?

Yun Zheng didn't think twice: "I'll go steal it now--"

He immediately changed his words: "I'll go get some now--"

As the saying goes: What scholars do cannot be considered stealing!
