"What about your husband? A grown man actually lets a woman work so hard to support the family. How can he still be considered a man?"
An unexpected male voice appeared not far away. Shen Minqing was frightened and looked around quickly, and finally found a figure on the big tree in the yard.
Seeing that Shen Minqing had found his position, the man stopped hiding and flew under the tree.
This position is right in front of Shen Minqing.
When he looked at Shen Minqing, the corners of the man's mouth curved in a sarcastic way.
Obviously, Shen Minqing never expected to see this man in her house. She thought that the two of them would never interact again after their last separation.
"Is my benefactor okay recently?"
Shen Minqing automatically ignored the man's previous words, thinking that since she had seen him here, she had to acknowledge his identity and say hello.
So she said hello calmly.
As for how he appeared on the big tree in her house, she felt that there was nothing to investigate.
The water in Shangjing City is bottomless, so she can pretend to be as stupid as she can.
Cang Muchen's mood was very complicated when he saw her. Seeing her busy these days and going out to find work, he would be lying if he said he didn't feel distressed.
But then I thought about the fact that she was already married, and everything she was going through now was caused by herself.
This kind of contradiction made him very tormented in his heart. He didn't sleep all night last night. He came here early this morning, but he didn't want to see her copying books so early.
"Are you not going to have those eyes of yours?"
The word of benevolence made Cang Muchen feel indescribably complicated, angry and anxious.
I really don’t know if this woman has any heart at all. You obviously saved her, but she didn’t show any signs of it.
But her husband treated her so badly, yet she still paid for him like this!!!
Shen Minqing didn't know how to answer his question. The clothes of the man in front of her were worth her entire wealth. If she told him that she needed money, he would probably laugh at her even more.
"My benefactor was joking. It's already getting bright."
"But you've been copying for at least half an hour. Aren't you married? Where is the man in your family? Is he a... soft ricer?"
Cang Muchen was a little hesitant when he said the words "eat soft rice", because his father had always claimed that he was a soft rice person...
But apart from these three words, he really couldn't think of any words to describe this situation.
Shen Minqing in the room heard this and was thinking about whether he should explain.
After thinking for a while, he finally stood up and walked outside the yard.
"Why does my benefactor know so much about me? Could it be that he has always wanted me to repay his kindness?"
Apart from this, she couldn't think of anything else, or...she didn't dare to think of anything else.
After experiencing so much, her heart had long been as calm as dead water, and it was useless to think about other things.
Faced with such a statement, Cang Muchen felt that there was no need to refute, "That's what I meant. After all, I risked my life to save you, didn't I? Your attitude is really chilling."
"My benefactor was joking, but I really don't know how to repay my kindness."
"In that case, just let that useless man of yours come out and say thank you to me."
The two of them went back and forth, and Cang Muchen's topic always couldn't get around her legendary husband.
Shen Minqing knew that if he didn't explain this matter clearly today, he would probably continue to be obsessed with it.
"No husband."
"Cut~"
"Wha...what?"
As soon as Shen Minqing said these words, Cang Muchen subconsciously sneered, but he quickly reacted due to lack of brains.
"Can you say that again?"
Shen Minqing sighed helplessly, "I said I never had a husband. When I rented this house, I was just lying. I did it for safety reasons."
"If I say that we, the master and the servant, live together, I don't know who is involved, but if some trouble arises, what should we do?"
She didn't want to say these words originally, but seeing that this man was still awkward, she decided to say them after thinking about it.
Anyway, people came here quietly, and there was nothing else that she could solve just by worrying about it.
Cang Muchen looked at her steadily. The anger in his heart dissipated immediately, but he felt even more angry. He could have investigated this matter by himself, but he just did it.
I kept doing it again and again, making myself angry for so many days in vain!!!
"Hmph! You still have some brains."
Without saying this, Cang Muchen immediately left where he came from.
For such a person who came and went without a trace, Shen Minqing was stunned for a long time. She only came back to her senses when Dan Yu called her.
I don’t know who this noble man is, and his behavior is a bit incomprehensible.
"Miss, breakfast is ready, let's eat first."
Seeing Shen Minqing come out, Danyu felt a little happier.
Shen Minqing was still thinking about the man from before. She had always been more sensitive and did not ignore the relaxed look on his face when he left.

"Here, bring the wine!"
As soon as he returned to his house, Cang Muchen called for wine.
Thinking of their master's temper recently, the servants were afraid to send him wine.
"Are our princes planning to drown their sorrows in wine?"
"Something seems a bit wrong these days, but it shouldn't be a problem if I drink to drown my sorrows."
"Did you hear that the prince asked for wine as soon as he came back?"
Several people below gathered together and wondered whether they should give it away. Qingfeng came over at some point and patted several people on the head.
"Don't you want to die? Discuss the master's affairs here."
The few people below were immediately frightened like quails, lowering their heads and saying nothing.
Seeing this, Qingfeng smiled and said, "Hurry up and send the wine. Didn't you hear our prince's brisk tone? Naturally, we need wine to celebrate good things."
With Qingfeng's words, it was equivalent to getting a gold medal to avoid death, so he was no longer afraid, and sent the wine to Cang Muchen in a hurry.
In the room, Cang Muchen slowly poured out a glass of wine and raised it to his mouth, but he still didn't put it in.
What Shen Minqing said over and over again in his head were those words he said before.
She said she didn't get married just to protect herself.
Not getting married is the best thing.
All the feelings that tortured him before could be thrown away, and after experiencing this, he understood his own thoughts even more.
From now on, he will start to cast the net bit by bit.
Slowly drinking a glass of wine, the smile on Cang Muchen's face grew wider.
This kind of smile is rarely seen by anyone except parents.
However, with the woman he likes, Cang Muchen felt that he still had to report it to his mother-in-law as soon as possible. Although his mother-in-law and his father never urged him to do this, he looked at other people's fathers.
His mother was urging him, he thought, maybe it was because his father and mother just didn't want to put too much pressure on him.
It only took half an hour for a carriage to go from the upper capital to the manor on the outskirts of Beijing.
In recent years, he has basically traveled between the capital city and the manor on the outskirts of Beijing. In addition to the number of times he has walked, his father has walked even more.
No matter it is him or his father, it is all for the sake of his mother and concubine.
When he returned to the manor this time, he did not inform his mother and concubine in advance, so when he came, her mother and concubine did not know about it.
It seems that time has not left too many traces on Song Chen's face. She still looks almost the same as she did more than ten years ago.
But now, Song Chen's anger has been removed from his whole body, leaving only peace.
Of course, this is also because there are not many things that she needs to worry about now. She lives the most authentic life every day. After all, she already has two men with the best faces in the world to pamper her. She doesn’t need to have another one.
More means.
"I've met the prince."
"I've met the prince."
Along the way, people in the manor greeted Cang Muchen one after another, and Cang Muchen nodded one by one.
"Where is the princess at this time?"
He knew that the mother-in-law would not stay in the house quietly, especially when the father was not in the manor. She would be in the flower field, medicine field, or orchard at the moment.
"To tell you the prince, the princess is at the medicine field at the moment."
Song Chen had been staying at the medicinal field these past few days. One of the medicinal herbs that had been planted outside had mutated. She felt it was very magical and wanted to see if there would be any other discoveries.
These days are the time when they are blooming, and she wants to see what's going on inside the stamens as soon as possible.
Cang Muchen heard that she was in the medicine field, so he walked towards Song Chen's medicine field in a familiar way.
From childhood to adulthood, he basically grew up with his mother and concubine in the medicine. Others only knew that his mother and concubine were particularly interested in making money, but only their own family members knew that besides being interested in money, his mother and concubine were also interested in making money.
I am also very interested in medicine and cooking.
Thanks to these two points, he could have a taste of food cooked by his mother and concubine after suffering the torture.
That kind of life is actually quite interesting when I think about it now.
From a distance, Cang Muchen saw his mother-in-law squatting next to a medicinal plant. Who could tell with just one look that his mother-in-law was already a woman in her thirties?
Anyone who says it's a teenage girl will definitely believe it.
And his eighteen-year-old son seemed to appear out of thin air.
He didn't care about this.
Because he knew that apart from her mother and concubine, her father had not been left with many traces by time, but he had become more and more mature, and the ladies and ladies in the capital did not seem to be aging so fast.
This is what others have said is good maintenance.
Cang Muchen quietly walked to Song Chen and squatted down, observing the situation with her.
"Concubine, do you see what kind of flower is coming?"
Song Chen didn't express much surprise at his arrival, but just glanced at him slightly, "This is the flower I'm looking at~"
