The day her husband welcomed the time-traveling girl into the house, she woke up

"It came from Fenglan, and it's related to Fei'er..."

Li Shu muttered softly as she took the letter. As she took the letter, she casually teased Lin Yuan, "I just glanced at you a few more times, why are you so nervous that you stutter? Do you think I'm a man-eating monster?"

Lin Yuan immediately stood up and stepped back a few steps, then bowed and said, "In my heart, the young lady is the most gentle, kind, and beautiful person in the world. She is definitely not a man-eating monster. I am..."

At the end of the words, Lin Yuan lowered his head in confusion.

He couldn't just say that he had thoughts about the young lady that he shouldn't have, and that being stared at by the young lady would make his heart beat faster and make him extremely nervous!

Li Shu sighed secretly because of his three most important ones.

There are many gentle, kind and beautiful people in the world, but few are as stupid and miserable as her!

If she hadn't dreamed of the future, she would be suffering from severe morning sickness, being constantly misunderstood and blamed by Ning Jin and the others because of Xie Yu, and also having to help Xu Daijun take care of the trivial matters related to the New Year and the New Year. She was really stupid!

Fortunately, her ending in the dream was tragic enough!

Fortunately, she was frightened enough when she fell asleep while watching her dead body rotting and infested with maggots!

Otherwise, she might not have the heart to give up the two children, let alone let go of her feelings for Ning Jin, and the family ties between her and Li Yunzhi, father and son, and the other five people!

Thinking of this, she had already unfolded the letter.

What was written in the letter made her face change suddenly.

But after a few moments, she breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said to Lin Yuan, "Later, I will give you two portraits of Yin Qiang'er. You should have them copied and spread as many as possible across the country. Then spread the rumor written in this letter as widely as possible, but you must spread it from the towns bordering our country and Fenglan, and quickly. If the cost is too high, I can..."

"Miss, don't worry about the expenses. When the master handed Peacock Terrace over to Sanniang, he also gave her a large sum of money. In addition, Sanniang has taken good care of Peacock Terrace after the master passed away. Now the funds in our building are enough to do anything for you, Miss."

"That's it..."

Li Shu was a little surprised.

The dowry her mother gave her was so large that people in Beijing still talk about the grand scale of her wedding. Who would have thought that it was not all of her mother's property!

The reason why she was determined to divorce Ning Jin and sever ties with Li Yunzhi and his son was that her dowry would allow her to live a worry-free life!

Ugh!

Compared with my mother!

She is such a waste!

I don't know if he was born this useless, or if Li Jin and the others raised him like this...

After a few inward sighs, Li Shu put the letter back into the envelope and handed it back to Lin Yuan. "Find some time to show it to Fei'er so she can have some peace of mind. She won't be overwhelmed by what she finds out later."

"Yes."

Lin Yuan had just put the letter away when Nanny Gui came in with two bowls of ginseng pigeon soup.

After handing the smaller bowl to Li Shu, she smiled and handed the other bowl to Lin Yuan, "Have you helped the young lady finish the cakes earlier? And help the young lady drink this bowl of soup as well!"

Lin Yuan took it silently. He wanted to ask why the young lady had less than him, but he didn't ask in the end.

Because he already knew that the lady had a very small appetite before he came to her.

For this purpose, he even practiced cooking skills.

Thinking that he would have the chance to be with the young lady in the future, he must find a way to get her to eat more.

But he obviously has no talent as a cook.

Although his cooking skills have been praised by everyone in their building, including Sanniang, it is still far behind that of Aunt Gui.

Then, Li Shu, who was full again, stood up and drew two portraits of Yin Qiang'er.

One photo shows Yin Qiang'er in the past with her face full of spots, and the other photo shows Yin Qiang'er now.

After Lin Yuan left the back window with the painting incomparably smooth, she looked at Aunt Gui unhappily and asked, "Are you raising Lin Yuan as your son now, Aunt? Or as your future son-in-law?"

Nanny Gui was embroidering a handkerchief for Li Shu. Upon hearing this, she paused and said with a smile, "I can't give birth to a son who looks like Lin Yuan. As for the future son-in-law... Actually, it doesn't have to be Lin Yuan, but there must be one! The current son-in-law is not worth the young lady closing her heart and no longer having feelings for any other man!"

Li Shu shook her head, picked up Zhizhi and sat over to watch Aunt Gui embroider.

Then she thought of the cloak Lin Yuan had been wearing for a long time, and she didn't know if it had been washed, so she said to Aunt Gui, "I have enough handkerchiefs. Aunt, why don't you make a cloak for Lin Yuan when you have time? I'm afraid the one he's wearing now will get smelly if he keeps wearing it."

She had just said it casually, but who would have thought that Aunt Gui would immediately put down the handkerchief she had just embroidered with a koi fish tail and said, "I'll go see if there's any suitable material!"

Li Shu: “…”

This is really treating him as a future son-in-law!

Aunt Gui has never been so attentive to her daughter!

What she didn't know was that Lin Yuan had already washed the cloak several times.

But every time I wash it, I dry it overnight.

*

Two days later.

As soon as the sun rose, someone from the Grand Princess's Mansion delivered a message to the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion.

Yin Wanyu invited Li Shu to go to Peacock Terrace to watch the second act of The Villain.

Because it was snowing, Li Shu wore thick clothes.

As soon as I entered the Peacock Terrace, I took off my cloak because it was so hot.

After the master and servant went upstairs, they saw a table of guests in the lobby on the first floor whispering.

"That's the wife of the Duke of Dingbei, right? She's so beautiful! Her skin is whiter than the snow outside! And even in such a cold day, with so many layers of clothing, her tiny waist barely fits in one hand. The Duke of Dingbei is truly blessed!"

"What's the use of just having good fortune? That prince doesn't know how to cherish anything. He treats Xie Yu, who looks a bit like his wife, as his precious baby and even has a child with her. It's said that if it weren't for the emperor's pressure, Li Shu would have divorced him long ago! If I had a wife who looked like Li Shu, not only would I not hurt her, I would worship her like an ancestor!"

"Stop daydreaming! A beauty like that isn't something people like us can dream of! But speaking of Xie Yu, have you seen her recent portrait? What's with her nose and mouth? She claims they were caused by mosquito bites from a miasma-infected area. But I often go to places with miasma and get bitten by mosquitoes there, and I've never experienced anything like that!"

"How can a delicate little girl be the same as a big, rough guy like you? But I've seen Miss Xie's recent portraits a few times, and her nose and mouth don't look like they were caused by mosquito bites. Instead, they look like they were born that way. But I've seen her in person before, and her nose and mouth weren't like that!"

"So that portrait was deliberately painted to discredit her?"

"Probably not. I heard that Xie Yu also went to the hunting trip organized by the Second Prince, but she went with her face covered. Then something unexpected happened during the hunt. One time, the veil on Xie Yu's face fell off, and someone saw that Xie Yu's nose and mouth had grown into the shape of the portrait!"

"Does anyone know why Xie Yu's nose and mouth look like that?"

"You've hit the nail on the head! The most common theory I've heard lately is that Xie Yu is a demon, a humanoid taking on Li Shu's appearance. She was trying to take everything from Li Shu, but then Li Shu suddenly changed her ways and stopped being nice to her. She even stopped wanting Ning Jin and cut off all ties with her father and brother. Xie Yu's energy was damaged during her battles with the changed Li Shu, and she's slowly returning to her original form!"

"So evil?"

"Haha, so let's just listen to it for entertainment. No matter what the truth is, it's not something we can know!"

"..."

Lin'an sat behind the counter, supporting his head with one hand and glancing at the guests at that table.

After those people finished talking and started drinking and eating, he turned around and saw a face that looked a little familiar.

After hesitating for a few moments, he tentatively called out in a low voice, "Boss?"
