A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

Shen Nian thought about it and decided to tell Shen Hui about the incident at Lingwu Temple.

Shen Hui suddenly realized, that's what she said, Xia Tian and Wen Jin have very different statuses, how could they become friends for no reason.

"But you are so brave. Fortunately, nothing happened." Shen Hui admired him but was also a little scared.

But given the situation at the time, there probably wasn't any other solution.

Shen Hui's curiosity was satisfied, and she remembered the purpose of her visit to Shen Nian. She immediately emphasized to Shen Nian with a serious face, "I'm telling you, stay away from that Princess Yunying from now on. Got it?"

Shen Nian was puzzled, "Why do you say that, big sister?"

"That Yunying was causing trouble for her today. Although I don't like her to be my sister-in-law, compared to Yunying, I still think she is more suitable." Shen Hui pointed at Xia Tian and Shen Nian and said angrily.

"Did Yunying cause you trouble?" Shen Nian asked Xia Tian.

"Yes, when I was waiting for you outside." Xia Tian did not hide anything and told Shen Nian what happened at that time.

Shen Nian listened, his face turned cold, "Did she fight with you?"

"No, but luckily my eldest sister came over, and then Princess Ruihua took Princess Yunying away."

After Xia Tian finished speaking, he thanked Shen Hui again.

Shen Hui waved her hand, "Humph, although I don't like you, since you are still my brother's wife, I won't watch others bully you."

Shen Nian felt relieved, but still warned, "If she hits you again in the future, don't hesitate, fight back, and I'll take responsibility if anything happens."

"Okay, don't worry, Princess Yunying can't hit me with just those two moves." Xia Tian responded with a smile.

"Hmph, if there's a next time, I'll go to the Empress Dowager for justice." Shen Hui also snorted coldly.

Xia Tian looked at the brother and sister and felt amused. They were indeed brother and sister, their personalities were actually quite similar.

She hadn't seen Shen Hui for a long time. After seeing her sitting for a while, she put her hands on her waist and pounded it. After looking carefully for a while, she found that her belly was slightly protruding, so she must be pregnant.

"Sister, are you pregnant again?"

"Well, it's been four months." Shen Hui said, holding her belly.

Before Shen Nian could react to what the two were talking about, Xia Tian said, "Congratulations, big sister."

"Thank you." Shen Hui also smiled.

Xia Tian looked at Shen Nian's dazed look and knew that he hadn't understood yet, so he poked him with his hand and said, "Big sister is pregnant."

Shen Nian was stunned for a moment, "Oh!"

Shen Hui looked at Shen Nian's reaction and glared at him in dissatisfaction.

Xia Tian took a cushion and asked Shen Hui to use it to support her lower back.

Speaking of which, the baby in Shen Hui's belly is already her third child.

I already have a son and a daughter. The son is five years old and the daughter is three years old.

It's no wonder that Shen Nian didn't react for a long time. Shen Hui was seventeen years old when she gave birth to her first child. That was also the year when Shen Nian had her first attack of the poison, so she had never seen her nephew.

Later, the poisoning became more and more serious. He locked himself in the house every day and rarely saw outsiders. Shen Hui did not dare to bring the child to see him.

When Shen Nian came back last year, Shen Hui had never liked Xia Tian, so she always went back to her parents' home alone. So until now, Shen Nian has never seen Shen Hui's two children.

"Mu Feng, drive the carriage steadily." Shen Nian gave the order when he saw that Shen Hui was not sitting comfortably.

"Okay, master." Mu Feng responded loudly.

"You are like this, where is your brother-in-law?" Shen Nian frowned.

"I asked him to leave first." Shen Hui explained, "I was just waiting for you!"

Seeing Shen Nian worried about her, she felt warm in her heart.

This was the first time Shen Nian cared about her after he recovered.

Shen Nian asked Mu Feng to drive the carriage to take Shen Hui to the Marquis Wen'an Mansion first. After watching the people go in, he turned around and returned to the Marquis Wu'an Mansion.

Xia Tian took Ningxiang back to Jinglan Garden to rest.

Shen Nian called Mu Feng, Muchen, Ningyue and Ningshuang, and asked Mu Feng to drive the carriage and take Ningyue to Yuxiu Pavilion to invite Chu Sanniang.

Chu Sanniang's real name is Chu Yuwan, and she is the proprietress of Yuxiu Pavilion.

Yuxiu Pavilion is a place in the capital that specializes in custom-made clothes, and it has many skilled embroiderers.

She is quite famous in the capital. It is said that Chu Sanniang's embroidery skills are superb and she is very popular among wealthy families.

However, Chu Sanniang rarely does it herself, and usually lets the embroiderers in her embroidery workshop do it.

Mu Feng and Ning Yue agreed and left quickly. It was already late and it would take at least half an hour to get from Wu'an Marquis Mansion to Yuxiu Pavilion.

After the two left, Shen Nian asked Ningshuang to open his private vault, and he took Muchen and Ningshuang in to take inventory.

Muchen and Ningshuang were confused. What happened to their master?

As soon as he came back, he gave orders without saying anything.

He even opened his private vault to take inventory of things.

This has never happened before.

Seeing that their master had a serious face, the two of them tactfully did not ask.

Ningshuang brought the account book. Shen Nian checked it for a while and got a general understanding of it. He then asked Ningshuang and Muchen to continue checking it, and he went back to the study first.

Shen Nian wrote and drew at the desk for a while.

Ningyue and Mufeng brought Chu Sanniang back.

After asking the maid to serve tea to Chu Sanniang, Shen Nian spoke about the purpose of inviting Chu Sanniang.

"Boss Chu, I invited you here today because I want to order a wedding dress from you, and have it embroidered by you personally."

"Master Shen is too kind. But Sanniang has already accepted a custom-made dress from someone else, which will take two months to complete. I'm afraid I don't have the time." Chu Sanniang was a little embarrassed.

"Boss Chu, can you please speed up the production? I'll give you five months, and of course the price will satisfy you."

"Five months, plus the one I'm currently rusting, is a bit tight."

Chu Sanniang thought for a moment and suggested, "Master Shen, how about this? I'll embroider the main part of the wedding dress, and let the best embroiderer in our workshop embroider the less conspicuous areas like the cuffs and hem. This way we'll have more time."

"Will you be able to tell?" Shen Nian was a little hesitant. He didn't understand these rusting jobs and didn't know if there would be any difference.

Chu Sanniang smiled and said, "Prince Shen, you can rest assured. The embroiderers under my command are very skilled and not much worse than me. I promise that they will never be able to tell."

"That's fine. But Boss Chu has to finish it within five months, and the price is negotiable."

"Okay, Master Shen, don't worry. As long as Sanniang accepts the business, she will definitely deliver it on time."

Shen Nian nodded. "But I also need to customize some other clothes. Boss Chu, just ask your best embroiderer to do it. It will take only five months to complete."

"Okay, that's no problem." Chu Sanniang gestured to the maid she brought with her to take out the ruler, "Then let me measure the size first."

"Ningyue, go get the Madam." Shen Nian gave the order and took out a few blueprints from his sleeve and handed them to Chu Sanniang. "Boss Chu, please take a look at the drawings and see if they can be made."

Chu Sanniang took it and looked through it carefully. The more she looked, the brighter her eyes became. "Was this painted by the prince?"

"Ah."

"This painting looks really good. There's basically no problem with it, except that it needs a slight modification here. It will be more perfect like this." Chu Sanniang pointed at the drawing to Shen Nian, and then gestured with her hand to show the modified look.

Shen Nian nodded, "Just do as Boss Chu says. But I'd like to trouble you to keep this a secret for me for now. And don't tell me what to do when you measure my wife later."

Chu Sanniang naturally agreed.
