Returning to the study and picking up the unfinished book "Things I Have to Say About the Pretty Widow and I", Shen Yueqiao couldn't read a single word.

She really couldn't think of Lin Hongle as a substitute for her idol. He was a living person, not an inflatable doll. Although she often watched her idol's videos and laughed like a fangirl in modern times, and had imagined her idol thousands of times in her heart, but...

This time travel is too bad! If it was any other handsome and obedient husband, she would definitely cultivate her feelings and sleep with him, but this one, she was so nervous when she looked at him, what should she do?

She stared at the book with her dragon eyes wide open, while Shen San beside her was speechless. "Can't you just hold the book upside down?"

After a moment, Shen Yueqiao stood up and said, "Let's go out to eat."

She didn't want to starve herself. She hadn't eaten enough just now, and now she couldn't think of a solution. It would be better to fill her stomach first.

Feeling depressed, Shen Yueqiao took Shen San out of the house and got on the carriage. Shen Yueqiao leaned against the carriage, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, feeling upset.

Soon, Shen San knocked on the wooden door and said, "Master, we're here."

When Shen Yueqiao got off the carriage, he saw an ancient restaurant.

"Ms. Shen, you haven't been here for more than a month." As soon as she stood still, the waiter of the restaurant rushed over with quick eyes and hands. This was Shen Yueqiao, the Shen Yueqiao who would reward her with a lot of money every time she served him well.

"Yeah." Shen Yueqiao nodded and said, "Are there any good dishes today?"

"Madam, you've come at the right time. Today we have sea monsters shipped in from the Bohai Bay by express horse. They are guaranteed to be fresh." The waiter smiled and promoted.

This sea monster is a precious item, but many people dislike it because it has too many claws and is difficult to peel, and it is also expensive, so only a few people like to eat it. Shen Yueqiao is one of them. Therefore, even if Shen Yueqiao does not come today, the restaurant plans to go to her house tomorrow to inform her.

Shen Yueqiao rolled her eyes. It was a sea monster, but it was just a crab. She asked casually, "How much is it?"

She is used to it. When eating out in modern times, she always asks the price first. After all, she can't afford a big shrimp that costs eight yuan each.

"Uh," the waiter choked. Shen Yueqiao never asked the price every time, but he quickly replied with a smile: "It's different now than in the past. It's a little more expensive. Five taels of silver each."

Shen Yueqiao nodded and said, "Then give me two."

In modern times, she is originally from Tianjin. Is it reasonable for people from Tianjin not to eat seafood?

I've been here for over a month now, and now that I can finally eat crabs, I'm naturally going to indulge myself.

"Ah? Yes, Lady." The waiter nodded. Lady Shen usually starts with five and only eats the sea monster ointment. Why does she only want two this time?

"Second sister, please give me two bowls of eel noodles first. There is no need to cook the sea monster. I will take it away directly." Shen Yueqiao ordered as he walked.

The poor woman who had just become rich did not have the habit of spending money lavishly. If Shen San had not brought her here directly, she could have had a meal at a roadside stall.

Soon, after the noodles came, Shen Yueqiao didn't hesitate at all and started eating with the chopsticks. Ever since he came into this body, for some reason, he always felt hungry easily and had a big appetite.

After eating, she wiped her mouth and directly signaled Shen San to pay.

Shen San thought she could have a full meal with her master, but she didn't expect that her master didn't care about her at all. So what was the point of only eating half a bowl of rice in the mansion?

Shen San's mouth twitched, but he still paid the money.

Only then did Shen Yueqiao return to the East House with the two half-dead crabs.

As soon as she returned to the East House, she signaled Shen San to leave. Shen San left immediately. She was hungry, so she continued to eat her meal.

Shen Yueqiao took the two crabs and went straight to the kitchen. At that time, only Shen Kuan was cleaning the kitchen. When Shen Kuan saw Shen Yueqiao, he was startled and was about to salute in a hurry. Shen Yueqiao stopped him and asked him to move the steamer and light the fire.

Turn the two crabs over and throw them into the steamer, sprinkle some salt on them. There are no peppercorns here, so just make do with it.

Shen Yueqiao calculated the time while handing firewood to Shen Kuan.

Shen Kuan is a well-behaved child. Although he does not look outstanding, he is loyal and honest. He doesn't talk much, but just keeps on making fire.

After calculating about a quarter of an hour, Shen Yueqiao asked Shen Kuan to stop the fire and opened the lid himself. The purple crab had turned bright red and exuded a fresh aroma.

Shen Kuan's nose twitched unconsciously, and Shen Yueqiao noticed it. He felt a little embarrassed. Alas, he didn't buy them some to try. What a mistake.

However, Shen Yueqiao did not have time to think about it at this time. She picked up the chopsticks and put the two crabs on the plate herself. She asked Shen Kuan to take the plate and walked towards Lin Hongle's courtyard together.
