Chapter 33
Chen Jin couldn't get up the next morning. Chu Xiuming took the shower and even the food was brought to the bed to eat. Madam Zhao had already packed the bed.
"Madam, I really don't need the general to accompany you?" Madam Zhao stewed red date millet porridge for Chen Jin. She didn't expect that the general was kicked out of the room by his wife on the first morning of the wedding. When Madam Zhao thought of seeing the general's helpless look, Madam Zhao felt funny.
Chen Jin's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were moist and affectionate, her already chubby red lips were also a little swollen, and her eyes were still crying. When Mama Zhao mentioned Chu Xiuming, she remembered what happened last night, which was both shameful and astringent. Chu Xiuming took advantage of her drinking to deceive her and said so many shameful words.
Seeing Chen Jin's appearance, Mama Zhao smiled and said nothing. Instead, she took care of her and said with breakfast, "The general specially ordered the kitchen to make rouge ham at noon, and the burnt quail that her wife liked."
Chen Jin's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but sit up, but her waist immediately became sore and then fell back onto the cushion. Not only her waist, but also the hard-to-speaking place, it was also very painful, and her legs were even more powerless.
Mama Zhao's eyes were full of smiles, and she was thinking about when she would be able to hold the young master, but she didn't have to be anxious. It would be better to wait until Chen Jin is a little older and be more secure.
When Chu Xiuming came in, he saw that Chen Jin was not only smiling because Madam Zhao said something, but her food had been removed. The large padding behind her made Chen Jin look particularly petite. Seeing Chu Xiuming, Chen Jin's face and neck turned red, looking cute and pitiful.
Madam Zhao smiled and then withdrew with a wink. Chu Xiuming sat beside the bed, holding Chen Jin's hand and said, "Why don't you look at me?"
Chen Jin turned his head and looked inside the bed, and then he noticed that the bed was made of yellow rosewood and the workmanship was particularly exquisite. Chu Xiuming chuckled, "My goodness, human relations are the common feelings between husband and wife, and there is no need to be shy."
"Don't say it." Chen Jin reached out to cover Chu Xiuming's mouth. She thought of the booklet her mother showed her before she got married. It was already shameful, but... there weren't so many tricks, it was so shameful. OK?
Chu Xiuming kissed Shen Jin's palm, "I'll rub it for you."
Chen Jin nodded and then lay on the bed. She was wearing a red bedclothes embroidered with Hehuan flowers. It was specially made for her by Concubine Chen. Because she was dressed in bed, she was a bit generous. She had no chance to wear the things she had when she first got married. She was found out by Madam Zhao some time ago, which was quite suitable.
Concubine Chen took all aspects into consideration, and was full of a kind motherly heart. She wanted to accompany her daughter to take care of her, just like she did not forget to prepare gifts for Chu Xiuming, not for Chu Xiuming's identity as Yongning Bo, but just to please Chu Xiuming and hope that he could treat his daughter well.
I'm afraid Concubine Chen would never have expected that his stupid and stupid daughter would have such a blessing. Just right for Chu Xiuming's eyes, he was much more courageous to be spoiled. Even Princess Rui never dared to drive King Rui out of the house directly.
Chen Jin was very comfortable being pressed by Chu Xiuming. He hummed a few times before complaining, "Don't think I don't remember it if I get drunk. You hit me yesterday."
"Oh?" Chu Xiuming's beautiful fingers slowly pressed on Shen Jin's waist, "Have you hit me?"
Chen Jin was about to continue speaking, but when he heard Chu Xiuming continue, "So what? I will hit you next time if I don't obey."
"..." Chen Jin was speechless for the first time, and turned his head and looked at Chu Xiuming with accusation. He felt that Chu Xiuming could be so rogue if he had changed someone else.
Chu Xiuming raised his eyebrows and asked with a solemn expression, "Did you hear it?"
Chen Jin moved his lips and said aggrievedly, "I'm still unreasonable..." It was obvious that he was accusing, but it was a little soft, and it seemed to be acting coquettish.
Chu Xiuming smiled and touched Chen Jin's head. Because she didn't get up, her hair was not tied up, but she was tied loosely behind her. Seeing Chu Xiuming smile, Chen Jin came up with confidence and said, "You can't look like this."
"Okay." Chu Xiuming stopped teasing Chen Jin, "Is it better?"
Chen Jin turned over carefully, feeling much more comfortable, so he nodded and said, "I'll ask Mama Zhao to help me clean up."
Chu Xiuming responded. Chen Jin would not know that Chu Xiuming used internal force when pressing her waist just now. Such a life-saving thing was used on a small waist soreness. If someone knew about it, he would definitely be called a loser.
Madam Zhao came in soon, and with her maid Anping, Chen Jin sat in front of the dressing table and found that the mercury mirror in the room was actually a mercury mirror. The mercury mirror that was almost as tall as Chen Jin clearly looked.
She had only seen such a mirror in Shen Qi's dowry, and it was not that big!
Chen Jin looked at herself in the mirror very rarely, and Chu Xiuming sat aside and watched her little lady dress up. Chen Jin had excellent skin and didn't need to wear that powder at all. Her cheeks were flushed, her lips were red and red. Her big almond eyes looked both innocent and innocent, but because she had just recognized the love, she naturally showed a bit of charm, which was indescribable.
Madam Zhao and Anping served Chen Jin for a long time, so they naturally knew how to dress up Chen Jin. The simple and unique butterfly swayed between their hair, and a round pink pearl fell between their eyebrows.
Chu Xiuming was not impatient at all, with a smile in his eyes. Sometimes he felt that if his father and brothers were still alive, he might have chosen another life, rather than living like he is not like himself at all.
Sometimes Chu Xiuming forgot what he was like. He remembered that his brother once said that his younger brother was just a lazy and unstable person.
"Okay." Chen Jin chose the bracelet and put it on his hand, then stood up and looked at Chu Xiuming and asked, "Where are you going to take me?"
Chu Xiuming's eyes flashed and returned to normal. He also stood up and held Chen Jin's hand and said, "Take you to see the warehouse at home."
"Oh." Chen Jin responded, and she secretly glanced at Chu Xiuming. The depression at that moment seemed to have been wrong. Since Chu Xiuming was unwilling to say it, Chen Jin just pretended that he had not noticed it.
Chu Xiuming spoke, "The Chu family has been guarding the border for decades, so many things are placed here."
Chen Jin nodded, and the pearls on her forehead swayed with her movements, "So did that mercury mirror?"
"My mother's dowry." Chu Xiuming explained.
Chen Jin was stunned just as he was about to nod, and pulled Chu Xiuming's hand and said, "Then let it go."
Seeing that Chen Jin's hair was tied up, Chu Xiuming felt a little sorry that he could not rub her head again, and said warmly, "My mother said she would leave it to her daughter-in-law."
Chen Jin said Oh, and didn't know what to say, so he looked around. After looking at him, he found that every part of the yard was the same as what she thought, even better than she thought. Chu Xiuming slowed down as Chen Jin and said, "Do you like it?"
"I like it." Chen Jin was so happy that he didn't know what to say. No wonder those craftsmen were just busy here. It turned out that Chu Xiuming had already planned.
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything else and led Chen Jin to the warehouse, "Remember the location and take whatever you want from here in the future. I'll ask Mama Zhao to give you the warehouse booklet later."
"Okay." Chen Jin responded.
After opening the warehouse door, Chu Xiuming put the string of keys on Chen Jin's hand, then held Chen Jin's hand with his big hand and said, "It's all yours."
Chen Jin's lips moved, and her heart was warm. The dimples appeared on her cheek and asked, "Where are you hiding your private money?" She was a natural attitude.
"Ha." Chu Xiuming was amused. I'm afraid Chen Jin didn't notice that there was a trace of uneasiness in his eyes. He was like a kitten tempted. He wanted to show off his power but was afraid of being rejected. "I'll give it to you when I come back, and you can also see the accounts in the mansion."
"I don't want to care." Chen Jin got a satisfactory answer, and his whole body became brighter and continued to follow Chu Xiuming inside.
"Then don't care." Chu Xiuming said indifferently, "It's better to leave it to Butler Wang and others."
Chen Jin was so happy that he saw that Madam Zhao and the others did not follow in, so he pulled out his hands and hung them on Chu Xiuming's back. He dragged them away. Chu Xiuming put his back on her waist, so that she would not be too tired and continued, "I have to know anyway."
"Okay." Chen Jin obediently responded.
When he walked to the door inside, Chen Jin got off Chu Xiuming. Chu Xiuming taught Chen Jin to recognize the keys. After opening the door, he said, "This is my great-grandmother's dowry."
Chen Jin looked at the things inside, all of which were large decorations, and there were even a pair of enamel carved green vases half a person tall. After looking around, Chu Xiuming took her to another warehouse, and the last one he saw was Chu Xiuming's mother.
Putting down the hollow carved incense burner in his hand, Chen Jin found that the remaining things in these warehouses were large or marked in the palace, just like this incense burner. If these were the dowry of all the women of the Chu family, then there should be many small items and jewelry.
Chu Xiuming spoke, "There are still some fabrics that I will put in the warehouse in the mansion this time."
"Oh." Chen Jin did not doubt Chu Xiuming was lying. Since he said that this was all the dowry, it was all, and it should be said that it was all the rest, but where did those go?
For some reason, Chen Jin suddenly thought of the 500,000 taels of silver given by Princess Rui. There was an incredible guess. Could it be that Chu Xiuming actually lacked silver? All those things were exchanged for silver? What was left was just something that was difficult to take or could not take action?
But what did Chu Xiuming want so much money?
Chu Xiuming looked at Chen Jin for a while and looked puzzled. He suddenly thought of what his father once said, never underestimate any woman. Sometimes they are willing to believe your lies, but they are just willing to let you deceive you. When they don’t want to, you will know how smart they are.
"It's not the time to tell you, so there's no need to test it." Chu Xiuming said, holding Chen Jin's hand again.
Chen Jin indeed put away the doubts on his face and looked at Chu Xiuming with an innocent look on his face. Chu Xiuming gently pinched her nose and said, "Silly girl."
"I tell you, I'm so smart." Chen Jin frowned and retorted, "Don't say I'm stupid."
Chu Xiuming led Chen Jin out, "Forget the five-spice sauce chicken at noon."
Chen Jin pursed his lips and looked at Chu Xiuming with accusation. Then he saw Chu Xiuming continue to walk forward without squinting. He took a few deep breaths, his small breasts bulged. After a long time, he was about to leave the warehouse, he said aggrievedly, "I am stupider than my husband." He also deliberately emphasized two words.
Chu Xiuming couldn't help laughing out loud anymore, and Chen Jin stomped his feet in anger, but he was helpless.
