He also had a little expectation in his tone of inquiry, as if he had come to her Lixiangyuan before, but he was reluctant to step in. He was just waiting for the basket of pear blossoms sent by Qing'er, so he had the courage to come and see her.
Facing his expected gaze, Wei Zijin nodded and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work..."
"It's good that you like it!" Chen Rui got her answer, and finally let go of his heart, staring at Wei Zijin gently. For a moment, he even wanted to put the pear blossom in her hand in her hair. between.
The simple and elegant pear blossoms are the most suitable for her! Only these white and clear pear blossoms are worthy of her!
Wei Zijin noticed Chen Rui's burning gaze, put down the pear blossom in his hand, and asked with a faint smile: "Why did Lord Shangshu come to Lixiangyuan so early today?"
In fact, since Chen Rui woke up, he had to come to Lixiangyuan every day and would have dinner with her until the sunset set, and he left reluctantly.
But he never mentioned spending the night in Lixiangyuan again. At night, he got up and left!
She knew that he was trying to make up for it, and she was cautious. Even when facing his concubine, or his favorite fourth wife, Liu Yiyi, was not like this now!
But she still did not respond to his enthusiasm, and still chatted with him indifferently, even talking about some government affairs in the court!
Chen Rui was not as pedantic as some officials said that women should not discuss government affairs, and she also learned more or less about the Li family from his words!
When talking about the Li family, Chen Rui didn't say much, nor did he want to discuss what the emperor did to the founding hero Li family. He just sighed in his words, revealing his actions towards the emperor, and he did not agree with it!
The more she talked with him, the more she felt that Chen Rui was indeed a rare pillar of the country... No wonder Xiao Heng valued him so much!
She admires him, that's all. She and him are more suitable to be close friends than couples!
"There is nothing to be busy with today, so I'll come to see you early..." Chen Rui's gentle answer interrupted Wei Zijin's contemplation.
Before Wei Zijin could speak, Chen Rui asked with concern again: "Have you felt better these few days?"
Wei Zijin nodded: "It's much better. Thank you Lord Shangshu for your concern. I specially asked the kitchen to prepare so many medicinal food!"
"This medicinal food, actually..." Chen Rui wanted to tell her that most of these medicinal foods were sent by the Prime Minister's wife, for fear that he would treat his sister badly!
But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
He hadn't told Wei Zijin how the Prime Minister's wife scolded him after she knew she was unconscious and how she issued a last ultimatum!
Just let him be selfish. As long as he doesn't mention her sister Wei Zixuan, Wei Zijin will not have the idea of moving to the Prime Minister's Mansion!
"What's wrong with the medicinal food?" Wei Zijin saw that he wanted to speak but stopped, and took his words in confusion and asked.
"Nothing..." Chen Rui shook his head and smiled reluctantly: "Zi Jin, I am your husband. It is human nature to take good care of you. Why should you be so unfamiliar with me?"
What he wanted to hear was not her thanks... But since she woke up, she even changed her title to him, from "Master" to "Shangshu"!
He wanted to hear her call her name, but he knew that this was just his dream!
