"I can't stop your mouth even when I eat!" Mrs. Zhang stared, wondering what happened to Nui Wai. She hoped that Lao San and Miao Ya would be more Ni Wai and they would never be separated from each other.
Jiang Miao blushed deeply, lowered her head and gnawed on the rabbit, cursing herself for not living up to expectations.
I don’t know what’s wrong with Shen Yanqing. She’s been acting weird lately. Could it be that her favorability score has been increased too much?
Shen Yanqing looked at her red face and felt itchy in his palms.
After eating, Jiang Miao helped clear away the dishes and then went to tinker with her things.
The lard had solidified. She had only seen others making facial cream, but she didn't know if she could make it herself.
She mixed the solidified lard and other skin care herbs in proportion, and in the end she only got two small boxes. The texture was fine and smelled fragrant. It was considered top quality, but the effect had to wait until she used it. Say it again.
Jiang Miao started making fragrant beads again. This time she used the extra apricots to make five flower and fruit scented beads. From now on, Jinxiu Pavilion will only sell twenty beads per month. She no longer needs to go to the town every three days, and will go up the mountain at other times. All the remaining flowers have been picked.
And Jiang Miao was thinking more. She was still Shen Yanqing's child bride, and the deed of sale was with the Shen family. No matter how much money she made, she couldn't spend it. She couldn't even go to a bank to save money without a household registration.
Now she is very satisfied with her monthly income of thirty taels, and is slowly saving it. When she leaves the Shen family, she will go to the capital to open a shop and live her own life.
The lights in the west room turned on, Shen Yanqing's shadow was reflected on the window paper, and the book in his hand did not turn a page for a long time.
When Jiang Miao finished washing and entered the room, his body trembled slightly. Jiang Miao didn't notice it. She dried her hair and climbed into bed.
With her previous experience of sharing the same bed, she was no longer embarrassed this time.
Jiang Miao yawned, "I fell asleep."
She waited for a while, but when she didn't get a response, Jiang Miao curled her lips, turned over, faced the wall and closed her eyes.
There was a rustling sound behind her. Shen Yanqing blew out the lamp, took off her robe and lay next to her. The smell of the man wafted over, and Jiang Miao woke up instantly.
Shen Yanqing, a top student, won’t stay up late to study tonight?
Jiang Miao felt the man behind her get closer, breathing lightly, and the faint fragrance of bamboo brushed her neck. The next second, the man covered her with the quilt.
call!
It turned out that Shen Yanqing just wanted to cover her with a quilt, she thought...
Jiang Miao's heart was pounding, and she closed her eyes tightly to drive out all unexamined thoughts from her mind.
The night was already a bit cold. Shen Yanqing looked at the wet ends of her hair and frowned.
If you go to bed without drying your hair, you will definitely have a headache when you wake up in the morning.
He wanted to dry Jiang Miao with a handkerchief, but he was afraid of disturbing her.
In the darkness, Jiang Miao felt that the man had been staring at her back. Her body was stiff and she did not dare to move. After a while, half of her body was numb.
"hiss!"
"What's wrong?"
Shen Yanqing heard her voice and stretched out his hand to hold her shoulders. Jiang Miao felt that those hands were burning. She only wore a middle coat when sleeping. Shen Yanqing's palms were pressed against the thin material, and the heat was transmitted to her skin. Miao felt that her body became even more numb.
"It's okay, sir, please go to bed quickly," "Leave me alone!"
Jiang Miao's voice trembled unconsciously. It was so embarrassing. Let her be quiet.
Shen Yanqing watched the girl pull up the quilt and cover her head. She spoke in a strange voice, and felt a little anxious. He got out of bed and lit the lamp.
"Miaoya, show me."
Jiang Miao is now like a quail hiding everywhere, and Shen Yanqing still has to pull her out.
What else does "show me" mean? If someone else were in this situation, Jiang Miao would have beaten someone up. If she hadn't known that the male protagonist was a gentleman, she would have thought he was a wretched man who deceived a little girl.
Jiang Miao was embarrassed and annoyed, "You are so annoying!"
The little girl's eyes were wet, and her black hair was scattered on the bed like a waterfall, making her face look even smaller. Her tone was coquettish. Although she was complaining, it sounded like coquettishness to Shen Yanqing's ears.
His voice was a little hoarse, "I'm afraid something will happen to you..."
"My arm is just numb. It will be fine after a while. Don't ask anymore."
It's embarrassing enough in the first place, but he still keeps pestering me. Where has the aloofness gone?
"I'll rub it for you."
He saw Jiang Miao stiffening half of her body and grinning. Shen Yanqing's head became hot and the words came out of his mouth.
After saying that, he regretted it. Miao Ya would think that he was dissolute and rude.
Jiang Miao didn't think he was overstepping the rules, she just felt that the male protagonist was too clingy and would not stop until his goal was achieved.
She sat up suddenly, her almond-shaped eyes widened, with a look of helplessness.
"Knead it!" After rubbing it, he went to bed immediately.
Shen Yanqing's eyes trembled, and his knuckled hand held her arm. Jiang Miao was slender but had soft flesh.
Shen Yanqing felt like he had touched a piece of soft cotton. He couldn't help but squeeze it. When he realized what he had done, his hands froze. He secretly looked at Jiang Miao and saw a disillusioned expression on her face, huffing and puffing. The ground was like a kitten, stretching out its paws towards him.
"Ah!"
A smile flashed in Shen Yanqing's eyes, and Jiang Miao became even more annoyed and tried to break away with all her strength.
“Forget it if you don’t rub it!”
"do not move."
Shen Yanqing didn't dare to offend her again. He dismissed his thoughts and concentrated on massaging her numb parts.
The strength of the man's hand was moderate, and Jiang Miao's arm gradually regained consciousness and became much more comfortable. She was a little drowsy, and when the man's hand moved away, she still felt a little disappointed.
She was just about to lie down and sleep, her hair was wrapped in a veil, and Shen Yanqing gently wiped the ends of her hair.
"Wait until your hair is dry before going to bed!"
Jiang Miao opened her eyes drowsily, her red lips pouting like a lazy cat.
"Sleepy!"
"Be good, if you don't dry it, you will have a headache tomorrow morning."
Shen Yanqing felt soft in her heart when she saw her delicate appearance. Jiang Miao nodded sleepily and rested her head on his chest, letting him comb her hair away.
A good night's sleep, Jiang Miao slept deeply that night.
She had a dream in which she turned into a fish and was caught in a net by a fisherman on the shore, unable to move.
When I woke up, the sky was just turning white. Shen Yanqing had already gotten up and was sitting at the table reading a book.
"What time is it?" She rubbed her eyes, her hair fell in front of her, and she pushed it aside.
"A quarter of a second."
The light from the window shone in, reflecting his jade-like face. She didn't know if it was Jiang Miao's imagination, but she felt that Shen Yanqing's face was a little red.
"It's time to go to the academy." Jiang Miao looked at the sky. It was almost five o'clock in the morning. As usual, Shen Yanqing had already left.
"Um."
Shen Yanqing's eyes turned green, and he fell asleep at the end of the day.
Jiang Miao was better behaved than anyone before going to bed, but after she fell asleep, she was like a different person, with her hands and feet wrapped around him, domineering and clingy.
"I passed by the pastry shop and bought some cloud cakes. You can take them as snacks."
Shen Yanqing didn't have a chance to take it out yesterday, so he waited for her to wake up this morning and gave it to her.
The white cloud cake was sprinkled with powdered sugar and was a thin slice. Jiang Miao had never tasted this ancient cake before, so she pursed her lips, feeling a little greedy.
Shen Yanqing was so amused that she put the whole package on the bedside for her.
"If you like it, I will buy it next time you take a bath."
"Thank you sir."
She nodded with a smile, and Shen Yanqing touched her silky hair.
"I'm leaving. It's still early. You can lie back and sleep for a while."
