The daily routine of the mistress of the Hou family training her husband

When Chen Zhi finished his work and saw Xu Shuhe again, it was almost ten days later.

Thinking that I hadn't been back for so long, I bought a lot of snacks on the way and brought them back. They were all Xu Shuhe's favorite foods.

However, he didn't expect that he was turned away as soon as he came back.

"The young lady said that you are very busy, young master, and she dare not disturb you. So from now on, young master, you will sleep alone in the front yard. All your things have been packed up and moved there." Xinyue stopped at the door, looking a little embarrassed.

After hearing what she said, Chen Zhi was completely stunned.

What's wrong? Why are you suddenly angry? You were fine last time.

Seeing Chen Zhi so confused, Xinyue couldn't bear it. She glanced around and seeing that there was no one around, she lowered her voice and spoke.

"You haven't come back for so many days without saying a word. The young lady has been angry for a long time. She has already moved your things to the front. You should think about how to make the young lady happy."

"Xinyue!" Xu Shuhe's voice came from inside the room, "What are you mumbling about outside? Come in quickly!"

This shout made Xinyue shudder all over. She responded and hurried back to the house.

Chen Zhi felt annoyed, thinking that he had been busy with other things during this period and neglected Xu Shuhe. The friendship between the two had just started to improve, but he suddenly seemed distant, which must have been annoying.

If it were him, he would probably be angry too.

People are like this. They don’t think about it at the time, but when they turn around they realize it, but it’s too late.

"Stupid!" Chen Zhi patted his head.

He wanted to apologize, but no one wanted to see him, and he was too embarrassed to stand at the door and confess, so he put down the food he had bought for Xu Shuhe today, and then went to the front yard, thinking about how to coax people.

After he left, Meixiang carried all the things at the door into the house.

Xu Shuhe didn't even look at it, "Take it away, I don't want to eat it."

"Young Madam, are you really not going to try it? There's spicy braised beef, sesame fried lamb, rose cheese, fried chicken, roast goose, thousand-layer cake, longan buns, ox tongue biscuits, and purple rice zongzi..."

Meixiang looked through the paper packages, read out the names aloud, and secretly looked at Xu Shuhe's expression.

Sure enough, Xu Shuhe couldn't help but glance over here as he listened.

Meixiang then struck while the iron was hot, picked up the roast goose and walked quickly to Xu Shuhe.

"It's still hot. After all, I spent money to buy it. Madam, please try it. Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to eat roast goose? And the tongue biscuits, please try them. What's the difference between the ones in the shops in the capital and those made by our Madam?"

Seeing this, Xinyue also hurried to help, "Yes, Madam's ox tongue biscuits are the most delicious. Madam will be arriving in the capital in two days."

The two maids advised him like this, and Xu Shuhe snorted, then picked up a piece of the cut roast goose directly with his hands without being too particular.

"Eat it, but don't even think about begging for that person."

Xinyue and Meixiang agreed verbally, but they smiled at each other and thought in their hearts that they should quickly get their two masters to reconcile.

Of course, he did not forget to quietly tell Chen Zhi about this news.

Food strategy method, useful.

After Chen knew about it, he immediately ordered Zhang Ping to search the capital for delicious food. He was not afraid to spend money and would buy back all the food with good reputation for Xu Shuhe to try.

Although Xu Shuhe has been in Beijing for some time, he has been busy with business and has never specifically gone out to look for delicious food. Chen Zhi's trick really works.

It not only seemed thoughtful, but also suited Xu Shuhe's taste.

After three days of delivery, Chen Zhi got advice from other colleagues in the yamen and asked him to buy jewelry.

So several sets of high-quality headwear were sent to Xu Shuhe.

That's not enough. I heard from the jewelry shop owner that fresh flowers should be sent. The ladies and girls in the major mansions usually like to place flowers in their courtyards. Now in summer, the courtyards look more lively with flowers.

Chen Zhi thought it made sense, so he ordered Zhang Ping to buy a lot.

While Xu Shuhe was out at the store, the owner of the flower garden brought people in to decorate the yard. When Xu Shuhe came back in the evening, he was stunned when he walked to the gate of the yard.

The whole courtyard was a sea of ​​flowers in all colors, with lanterns arranged high and low. It was dusk at this moment, and the setting sun was shining, almost blending with the candlelight, enveloping the entire courtyard, making it look like a fairyland.

Just as Xu Shuhe was immersed in this beautiful scenery, Chen Zhi, dressed in a plain white robe, slowly walked out from the corridor, passed through the sea of ​​flowers in the yard, and came in front of Xu Shuhe.

Eyes facing each other.

Chen Zhi suddenly took Xu Shuhe's hand.

Xu Shuhe subconsciously tried to break free, but was held tightly by the other party.

"My dear, I was wrong. Please don't be angry, okay? I'm not very good at coaxing people. If you are still angry, just beat me up and don't ignore me like this." Chen Zhi held Xu Shuhe's hand, his tone a little nervous, as if he was afraid that she would run away.

This move of his made Xu Shuhe a little at a loss, but Xu Shuhe's silence made Chen Zhi a little anxious.

"I disappeared suddenly during this period of time because of something important. I was wrong for not telling you beforehand, but this matter is indeed urgent. Can you let me in and I will tell you slowly?"

"Miss, the Madam will be arriving in Beijing soon. I think she doesn't want to see you and your brother-in-law being angry with each other. Why don't you just listen to your brother-in-law's explanation?" Xinyue whispered to help Chen Zhi.

Chen Zhi listened and immediately nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Xu Shuhe was already a little soft-hearted, so he just went down the ladder, snorted and nodded.

Then, the two of them went into the house together, and Chen Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

After sending the two maids away, Chen Zhi did not dare to delay and immediately explained the whole story.

Although he was angry before, when it came to serious matters, Xu Shuhe was still serious.

After hearing what Chen Zhi said, his brows furrowed, "You mean to say that you suspect that when the Sixth Prince was preparing for the Royal Autumn Hunt, he secretly set an ambush to kill the Crown Prince?"

"Yes, I have taken advantage of official business to investigate in the suburbs these days, and there are indeed some clues that can confirm my guess." Chen Zhi nodded, and then said, "But I am not sure whether I should tell the Fifth Prince now. After all, if the Fifth Prince investigates, he will definitely be faster than me, but."

"But you are worried that you might have guessed wrong and made the Fifth Prince work in vain, right?" Xu Shuhe asked.

Chen Zhi nodded slightly, "I do have concerns about this, but I am still confident that this is true. It's just that I still lack some strength to convince the Fifth Prince."

"I think you might as well give it a try." Xu Shuhe narrowed his eyes, "Some things can really become false, and false things can become true."

After saying this, Chen Zhi's expression suddenly changed, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Xu Shuhe changed slightly.

Xu Shuhe was not afraid that he would misunderstand that he was ruthless or something, so he continued, "The battle for the throne has always been bloody. Being soft-hearted will only hurt yourself. Although you are working for the Fifth Prince now, you should also take this opportunity to see if the Fifth Prince is capable enough. Otherwise, if he loses in the future, no one will be left unscathed. How can you be good if you follow him?"
