Shen Rong, could it be you?

Shen Lin moved his lips silently, clenched his hands into fists at his sides, and clenched his teeth.

His eyes slowly turned scarlet, and his murderous intent was evident. It seemed that even tearing the other person into pieces would not satisfy his hatred!

It has been a long time since I had such a strong desire to kill someone other than the enemy...

"It may not be him, after all, he just came back. I'm just asking casually." Qin Baochen stepped forward and patted Shen Lin's shoulder, "Okay, I'll give you an explanation."

Shen Lin nodded.

The raging anger in my heart could not be calmed down at all.

He didn't know how he finally got back to the general's mansion.

But the moment he saw Jinfengyuan, he unconsciously suppressed his anger.

As usual, a maid came to take the cloak as soon as he entered the door: "General, the lady is making tea, go and have a cup of hot and warm tea."

"it is good."

Shen Lin spoke, his voice was already soft enough.

Then, he warned himself again in his heart and did not enter the main house until he was back to normal.

Ye Qinghuan was indeed making tea, and there were oranges and sweet potatoes roasting on the small stove. The aroma of fruit and food, mixed with the fragrant tea, filled the room, and a warm family feeling came over him.

Shen Lin's mood improved a lot, and he smiled naturally: "Madam, you are in a good mood today."

"General, please take a seat. I have something to ask you." Ye Qinghuan poured him a cup of hot tea.

Shen Lin's heartstrings tightened.

She's going to talk about the antidote?

"Sister Yue has come of age and has been engaged to Xia Xiao, the son-in-law of Minister Bai. Second Aunt said that she is short of head ornaments. What do you think, General?" Ye Qinghuan asked with a smile.

Shen Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, sipped his hot tea and said, "You decide."

"No, this is the general's business." Ye Qinghuan said, "She and I are not cousins. I have already paid eighty taels of silver and a coming-of-age gift. The general should pay the rest himself."

"Repay?" Shen Lin was stunned.

Ye Qinghuan was afraid of irritating him, so she didn't elaborate: "Anyway, Second Aunt said that you have received a favor from Sister Yue."

Shen Lin remembered.

When he was driven to collapse by Shen Rong that year, Shen Yue often came to play with him. At that time, Shen Yue was only five or six years old, pink and soft and super cute.

He was afraid of scaring the little girl, so he tried to be calm. Every time Shen Yue came, he had to pretend to be normal.

Perhaps it was this willpower that supported him and prevented him from being driven completely crazy by Shen Rong.

It is indeed a favor.

"I don't understand women's stuff, so you help me prepare it! I'll pay for it." Shen Lin finished his hot tea and started to peel sweet potatoes. "At the border, we often roasted sweet potatoes. I haven't eaten them since I returned to Beijing..."

He lowered his head to peel the sweet potato skin, and Ye Qinghuan wanted to eat it too, but she had tried it just now and it was too hot, so she didn't dare to peel it.

I became even more greedy when I saw the peeled sweet potato flesh revealing the juicy sweet potato.

However, she did not ask for it. Instead, she used chopsticks to scoop another roasted sweet potato onto the plate, preparing to peel it and eat it after it cooled down.

"How much do you want to pay for the head ornaments?" Ye Qinghuan asked, "You have to give me a number. If it's too little, it won't be enough to express the general's feelings. If it's too much, I'm afraid the general will feel bad."

Shen Lin put the peeled sweet potatoes on a plate and handed it to Ye Qinghuan: "Here, roasted sweet potatoes are best eaten while they are hot."

Ye Qinghuan was stunned.

It was actually peeled for her?

Her heart skipped a beat uncontrollably, and she felt guilty when she took the sweet potato: "General, I have a set of ruby ​​headpieces, the market price is about three thousand taels, is it suitable?"

"Suitable."

Shen Lin didn't care about this, but was more concerned about the sweet potatoes in her bowl. "Eat quickly."

Ye Qinghuan took a bite and found it hot, sweet, and soft, just delicious!

In her two lifetimes, no one has ever peeled a roasted sweet potato for her!

"From now on, Madam will be in charge of the family affairs. You don't need to ask me. If you need money, tell me." Shen Lin looked at her eating sweet potatoes while blowing hot air, and smiled, "Didn't you grow up in the countryside? Have you never even eaten roasted sweet potatoes?"

"I've eaten it, and it was always hot. One time it was so hot that it blistered. Another time, I had almost peeled it, but it fell off!"

"No one peeled it for you?"

"Ah."

Shen Lin seemed to have thought of something and teased: "Big Brother won't help you peel the skin?"

"He? He doesn't eat sweet potatoes." Ye Qinghuan said.

Shen Lin didn't believe it.

Sweet potatoes are the most common food, who doesn’t eat them?

"He is very particular. There are many things he won't eat. Like beef, mung beans... Anyway, he likes everything." Ye Qinghuan frowned in disdain and continued to eat sweet potatoes.

Shen Lin thought, you know Senior Brother very well.

What about me? I am your husband, how much do you know?

Following his thoughts, Shen Lin asked, "Does Madam know what I like?"

"I know! You like beef, persimmon cakes, and dumpling soup..." Ye Qinghuan said a lot in one breath.

All hits!

Shen Lin was shocked, but felt warm in his heart.

It turns out that she had secretly gotten to know him and still remembered him so clearly, hehe.

"General, what do I like?" Ye Qinghuan asked while wiping his mouth gracefully after finishing eating the sweet potatoes.

Shen Lin: …

he does not know!

"General, before testing others in the future, prepare your answers first, so as to avoid being attacked by a surprise attack." Ye Qinghuan smiled mischievously.

Shen Lin, who had been caught off guard, also shook his head and smiled: "I know."

"I'm so full. I'm going to lie down for a while. Please do as you please, General." Ye Qinghuan went back to the inner room to rest.

Shen Lin sat alone beside the tea stove, looking at the boiling tea and thinking of the poison in her body, her good mood was gradually frozen.

Shen Rong, I hope it wasn't you who did this!

----

The next day, Ye Qinghuan found the ruby ​​headpiece and sent Chunyan to deliver it to Qin in Xifu.

Qin was satisfied, but she still muttered something to Chunyan: "Your wife couldn't bear to spend a set of headgear. Brother Lin is really generous."

"Lin is a man who knows how to repay his gratitude. Your wife should learn from him..."

"..."

Chunyan was angry when she came back, but Ye Qinghuan didn't care.

People who like to take advantage will never be satisfied. They will only get more and more!

"Madam, Yu from the third room is here today too. She also said that when the third room's daughter reaches the age of 15, she will also want the same ruby ​​head ornament. She said that if you don't have it, you can use other dowry to pay for it. Anyway, she doesn't want it to be bought outside. She wants the good things in your dowry..." Chunyan was so angry that she died.

Ye Qinghuan had already thought of it.

The daughter of the third room is only twelve this year, it is too early for her to reach the age of marriage. By then, she has already moved out and lived alone. Yu Shi can ask Shen Rong to go, haha!

The master and servant were chatting when someone reported, "Madam, Miss Yue is here."

"Oh, please."

Ye Qinghuan warned the maids with her eyes not to talk nonsense and went out to greet them.

Shen Yue's clothes were thin, and her eyes turned red when she saw Ye Qinghuan: "I'm here to thank my second sister-in-law!"

"You're welcome. That's what your second brother wanted." Ye Qinghuan smiled.

The little girl was more grateful than Qin, so Shen Lin's love for her was worth it.

"Second sister-in-law, I have something to say to you alone." Shen Yue seemed to have made a great decision.

Ye Qinghuan calmed down and ordered the maids to leave: "Sister Yue, you can say whatever you want."

"Second sister-in-law, if Xia Xiao has a future, he will definitely help second brother."
