Hearing her husband's slightly flattering words, but very pleasant to the ear, Li Shuzhen blushed slightly and said angrily:

"My husband talks crazy words in broad daylight, and he is not afraid of being overheard."

"What are you afraid of? This is at home. We are all our own people inside and outside. If anyone dares to gossip about our private conversations, we will drive him away. Oh, by the way, Madam just said that I talked crazy during the day.

Then I won't say it anymore. I'll talk to you later on the bed, okay?" Chen Tianhua picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, not forgetting to tease his wife.

Although they have been married for many years, every time Chen Tianhua talks about something fishy, ​​Li Shuzhen will blush and look shy and coquettish.

But this time she behaved unusually. She carried a pot and filled the wine glass with wine. She also laughed at Chen Tianhua who was smiling in the breeze: "In that case, husband, please drink less wine at night, so as not to get drunk."

Forgot about business."

She did tell the truth.

As the saying goes, a long separation is better than a new marriage.

The couple had been separated for another four months, and both of them were young and energetic, so naturally they yearned for each other very much.

"Don't worry, Qian'er. My husband's drinking ability has improved a lot over the years. This bottle of wine is just enough to keep you entertained and you won't get drunk." Chen Tianhua replied in a waning tone.

"Okay, husband, I'll let Cui'er pour you wine, and I'll take a bath first!" At this time, Li Shuzhen was also a little excited. She hurriedly went to the bathtub to soak in rose petals. She knew that her husband liked to take the bath by herself.

Has the scent of roses.

"Well... Qian'er is free to do so."

Li Shuzhen twisted her plump body and walked out of the side room. She called her personal maid Cui'er and asked her to come in to serve the master. She went to the large bathroom upstairs.

…

After a lingering night, Chen Tianhua did not get up early for the first time. Instead, he lazed on the soft mat bed, enjoying the rare warm moment.

It was even more impossible for Li Shuzhen to get up. Her hands, as white and tender as mutton-fat jade, were still wrapped around Chen Tianhua's thick neck, with her head resting on his chest, and they slept happily embracing each other.

"Qian'er, we have to get up quickly. We have to go to the Admiral's Mansion early in the morning to meet my father-in-law and mother-in-law." Chen Tianhua stroked her beautiful cheek and said softly.

After arriving at my home in Hangzhou, I went to my father-in-law's house early the next morning to pay my respects. This has been my habit for many years.

To pay respects to the elders, it must be in the morning. You can't have breakfast yet, so you have to go on an empty stomach, which is a bit like getting a physical examination for future generations.

This kind of greeting has been a rule of aristocratic society for hundreds of years.

"Well... let's lie down for a while. Why are you going so early? Let's have breakfast before going over." Li Shuzhen replied lazily, her words obviously out of tune.

Hearing Chen Tianhua talk about this matter, Li Shuzhen, who was originally full of happiness, changed her face slightly. Now she has no good impression of Li Mansion at all.

If her mother hadn't been there and was still a housewife, she would have brought him to live in the Lake Island Manor to avoid being lonely and miserable there.

She didn't go back because she didn't have to look at the faces of the second-fang and his family. Now there was a fourth-fang who was similar to her own age, and she had to call her "fourth aunt". It was really uncomfortable and she couldn't say it out loud.

Seeing the unhappy look on Li Shuzhen's face, Chen Tianhua knew it well.

He couldn't act according to her thoughts. At this time, he had to distinguish between public and private affairs. Conflicts at home were private, while his relationship and trust with Li Cunzhi were public and important.

Jealousy and trivial views of women are not as far-sighted as those of wild geese!

Perhaps, at this time, Li Cunzhi would pay more attention to his words and deeds, and would never allow personal affairs at home to interfere with their official affairs.

Chen Tianhua continued to stroke his exposed pretty shoulders and patiently comforted him:

"I know you are unhappy, but filial piety comes first and a son does not blame his father for his faults. He is also your father and my father-in-law. This blood relationship cannot be erased. Moreover, over the years, he has

I am very fond of you mother and daughter."

"We can't erase all our emotions just because the elder's father took a concubine in his house. We can't let others catch this and gossip. Anyway, we won't be here for a long time. We still have to go back to the island in the middle of the lake. We have the right to suffer a lot.

An hour, half a day's sin."

After listening to Chen Tianhua's defense of her father, Li Shuzhen began to feel very unhappy. Her mother, Bai Suling, was the only daughter like her. If she didn't win face for her mother, who would?

However, she is not an ordinary woman. She has seen a lot over the years, especially sitting in the position of vice chairman of Fengzhong Bank. She has long learned to think from other people's perspective.

Husband Chen Tianhua is not what he used to be. The relationship between him and his father Li Cunzhi has now become very sensitive and delicate. With Li Pinzhang infiltrating the relationship, it has become even more complicated and confusing.

Of course, Chen Tianhua cannot be influenced by personal affairs at home and affect the normal relationship. As his wife, it is her duty to maintain the normalization of the relationship between her father-in-law and her son-in-law, at least not to become a stumbling block.

Thinking of this, Li Shuzhen smiled:

"My husband is right. Let's do less interference and more comfort for the younger generation when it comes to the elders' affairs. Okay, let's get up quickly, wash up and get ready."

"good…"

The two of them walked into the bathroom and washroom next door and started getting busy.

At this time, the voice of the chief guard Fei Ge came from outside, "Major General, Madam, someone from the Admiral's Mansion is here to hurry you up."

What? Does this still need someone to push it?

Chen Tianhua's heart skipped a beat. He used to go there early in the morning every time, but today it was a little late. For the first time, the Li Mansion actually sent someone to rush him.

I don’t know who made the suggestion, but it at least shows that Li Cunzhi now attaches great importance to Chen Tianhua’s words and deeds.

Unexpectedly, Li Shuzhen spoke first, and she shouted angrily: "Didn't you see that we two are busy? Let them wait."

Hearing that the general's wife's voice was not very good, Feige turned around and left in a hurry.

Of course he knew what was going on here. During the Chinese New Year, his wife's mother went out to sea with Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen, and he knew the clues. The main reason was that the marshal brought a concubine into the house, which caused the trouble.

Today, he didn't want to get into trouble.

Li Shuzhen still had to put on makeup after washing, which was troublesome enough. Chen Tianhua could only wait, he couldn't go there alone.

He was really hungry. He worked hard for most of the night last night and it was all men who had to exert their energy. Therefore, he ordered a bowl of cold porridge in the kitchen and drank a cup of tea. Only then did Li Shuzhen come out dressed up.

Although the sun in the morning in the early seventh month of the lunar calendar is not the strongest or most poisonous, it is still very challenging to stand in the sun for a long time.

Now there were three people standing on the lawn outside the villa, standing with hands hanging down under the sunshine. Big drops of sweat fell to the ground, and their chests and backs were soaked.
