Congratulations on opening the coffin

Chapter 200
After entering the city, horses and chariots drove on the spacious street, full of traffic and crowds, its prosperity was comparable to that of the capital city, and it was exquisite and luxurious everywhere, even the floor tiles were paved with marble.

Lin'er couldn't help leaning into her arms, and through the half-opened car curtain, repeatedly exclaimed: "Mother, look, there are waterways! Do they all travel by boat?"

"Little Shizi doesn't know that Huainan City is a famous water town, known as a city built on water."

Feng Xi, who was sitting outside the carriage, said with a smile: "These Huainan kings have managed this place very well. It is famous for its delicious food, beautiful scenery and beauties. Many businessmen like to live here."

Lin'er tugged on her sleeve, pointed outside: "Mother, I want to take a boat! I haven't been on a boat yet."

Shen Ruo looked at the sky: "It's almost noon, why don't you go to the inn first, and go after lunch."

Lin'er naturally had no objection, and nodded obediently.

But Xiao Chen suddenly said: "If you like this place so much, why not just stay for a few more days. You are also tired from avoiding those assassinations these days, so you should take a rest. Then don't stay at the inn, it's cramped."

So, with a single order, he bought a yard in Huainan City, where every inch of land is expensive, and even everything is complete, so you can just move in.

When Lin'er heard that there was a pond with running water in the backyard, she followed her mother-in-law and rushed to see the lotus koi.

Walk through the main hall and walk in the nine-curved corridor, next to the rockery and flowing water, full of flowers, it can be said to be a scene in five steps, and a painting in ten steps.

Shen Ruo just sighed: "It's not cheap."

Xiao Chen walked beside her, walking side by side with her: "You don't have to worry about this."

She was still puzzled: "We came out in a hurry and kept everything simple. Where did you get so much money?"

Xiao Chen directly tore off a piece of jade pendant from his waist, and handed it to her: "This is my token. With it, you can go to various banks to withdraw money."

Isn't that the ancient black card?
Amused in her heart, she took the jade pendant and put it under the light.

The whole is round, translucent and moist, with dragon patterns on it. She looked at it carefully for a moment, and suddenly felt familiar, but didn't think about it carefully, and said with a smile: "If this is lost, wouldn't it be that everyone will be emptied? "

Xiao Chen stood beside her and explained softly: "If it's a small denomination of money, you can take it at will, but if it's tens of thousands of taels of silver, you need a code."

"Oh."

Quite reasonable.

After roughly understanding, she nodded and wanted to return it to him without much interest.

But he didn't want to, he pushed the jade pendant back, and said, "You take it, this is for you, the secret code is Earth Vibration Gaogang, and the western mountains are beautiful through the ages. If you need anything in the future, just buy it."

Even Shen Ruo couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, the jade pendant in his hand felt a little hot: "Are you sure?"

"Why are you uncertain?" He said disapprovingly, "You are the wife I am marrying, so if mine is not, it is naturally yours."

The jade pendant was getting hotter and hotter, she threw it back to him: "Forget it, I will earn the money myself, I don't need you to support me."

After saying that, she continued to walk forward regardless, Xiao Chen had no choice but to chase after her: "Are you angry?"

He asked a little cautiously, and even the puzzled expression on his face seemed to be asking why.

Is it wrong for him to hand over all the family property to his wife?

Shen Ruo suddenly stopped, and said seriously: "Even if they are husband and wife, they are two independent people... Forget it, you don't understand."

She turned to leave, but was pulled back. He said seriously: "You can say it and try it, maybe I will understand."

When Shen Ruo heard this, she looked at him fixedly, as if examining him. After a while, she said in a compromised way: "Generally speaking, I don't like being restricted. If it's not a rude request, you can't control and force me; I What I can do, I don't need you to do it for me."

"Most importantly, please see me as a human being."

Xiao Chen frowned slightly, and nodded with difficulty: "Okay, I will try."

Shen Ruo smiled suddenly: "Then the first step, you are not allowed to say that I am your wife again..."

Xiao Chen frowned even tighter, but still resisted not interrupting her.

"Originally, your marriage was forced by the empress, and it was not what you and I wanted. It just so happens that now everyone in the capital knows that Princess Jing is dead, so let me die in the past, and the one standing here is only Qiao Yu."

She raised her head and looked at him for a moment, "Can you promise?"

The wind gently stirred her hair, and under the silver mask, those eyes were as clear and black as in memory, even compared to before, the remaining haze had dissipated, although her appearance was ruined, but It also drove away the shackles that were pressing on her back then.

She became more agile and vivid, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, with a new look.

How could he be willing to let her go back to the past.

After a long time, he nodded, the breeze was gentle, and the faint fragrance wafted: "Then Miss Qiao Yu, let's meet again, Xiao Chen."

He has gentle eyebrows and eyes, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the light from outside the corridor shines in, which is as beautiful as a picture scroll.

Her heart moved slightly, and she replied, "My name is Qiao Yu."

……

After lunch, Lin'er was still new to the new courtyard, and forgot about rowing for a while, so Shen Ruo went to take a nap, but didn't want to sleep until dusk.

When she woke up, two servant girls helped her rearrange her messy hair and dress. That maid was in her [-]s and [-]s, with a lively and romantic temperament.

While combing her long hair with a wooden comb, she praised with a smile: "Madam's hair is really nice, it's black and smooth, it feels like satin in my hand, I'll give Madam a moon-watching bun ?”

Shen Ruo sat in front of the pear blossom wood dressing table, yawned slightly, and leaned on his chin lazily: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, just do something simple."

"Ma'am, don't worry, it will be fine soon."

Hearing this, Shen Ruo just let her go, she has never been too concerned about these things.

"By the way, there happens to be a Kao contest tonight, why don't you go out for a stroll with Madam, Master and Young Master?"

"Kao Tournament?"

These three words really lifted her spirits a little, "But it's already summer, what else can there be flowers for?"

It's just that her question caused the two little maids behind her to cover their lips and laugh until she had a question mark on her head, and they explained: "It's not a flower, it's a person!"

"At this time of the year, Huainan City will hold a Kao Competition. A young lady from each flower building will perform on the Tongque Terrace. Whoever gets the most flowers will be the Kao of this year."

After listening to the introduction, Shen Ruo understood, oh, it turned out that it was the marketing done by the flower seller.

"But this year it's a bit earlier. In previous years, it was held on the first day of May, but this year it's more than ten days earlier. It's all because of that..."

The maid next to her tugged her: "Don't talk about unhappy things, so as not to disturb Madam's mood."
