Chapter 40 Then, can he have a chance? (Please vote for favorites)

Pei Zhaoxue noticed something strange about Mo Er and asked him to just say whatever he wanted.

Mo Er hesitated for a long time, and finally told him that during Pei Zhaoxue's absence, Shen Xuan would send letters and things to Shen Yuan whenever he had free time.

I visited Pei Mansion in person several times and spent a lot of time alone with Shen Yuan.

Mo Er also knew that Shen Xuan and Shen Yuan were not related by blood. In this case, he felt that it was not good for the two to be so closely connected.

But Pei Zhaoxue didn't specifically give him an order to report the news related to Shen Yuan to him in detail, so he didn't think about it.

After Pei Zhaoxue heard this, the absurd guess he had made came to mind again.

He suddenly remembered the man named Cui Shao whom Shen Yuan had rescued before, and he felt even more depressed.

Now it's this, now it's that. How could he not have noticed before that his little wife was so coveted?
  Shen Yuan didn't know about this.

She was currently checking the cotton delivered in the store's warehouse.

The cotton was fluffy and soft and of very good quality, much better than she expected. It would probably be effective when used to fill winter clothes.

"You haven't told me why you got so many white flowers? Although this thing is a bit rarer than ordinary flowers, it has no ornamental value after being picked."

Shen Xuan saw Shen Yuan's happy expression and didn't understand why the flower was so beautiful.

Shen Yuan chuckled softly, a small smile filling her watery eyes and dazzling the young man's eyes.

"Brother, this is naturally not for looking at, but for using."

She said, picking up some and putting them into his hands, letting him touch them.

During this process, their fingers inevitably touched each other, but Shen Yuan didn't notice and calmly took back the catkins.

Shen Xuan moved the place that she had touched just now, his slender willow-leaf eyes lowered slightly, and the shadow covered the emotion in his eyes that should not have been for Shen Yuan, and he touched it as she said.

The cotton felt soft to the touch. When he saw the items being delivered before, he only glanced at them briefly but did not touch them.

After holding the thing in his hand and feeling it for a while, he realized that it started to heat up when he touched it.

"Is this thing used to keep warm?"

Most of the things used to fill clothes in Yan Dynasty today are catkins, reed catkins, kapok, linen catkins, silk floss, etc., which do not keep warm.

For a merchant family like the Shen family, the winter clothes they wear are stuffed with fine duck feathers, goose feathers, and wool.

However, such winter coats are generally expensive and only a few people can afford them.

But if it is this kind of white stack that is not too expensive.
  While Shen Xuan was deep in thought, Shen Yuan nodded in agreement and took some more cotton and stuffed it into the little pouch wrapped around Mrs. Tang.

The kit became bulging after being filled with cotton. She put Mrs. Tang back into Shen Xuan's hands and let him feel it.

"Isn't this softness good?"

The cotton pouch is very soft, comfortable to touch and warm to look at.

Shen Xuan remembered what Shen Yuan had told him before that he wanted to focus on middle-class customers. After going through it in his mind, he came to a conclusion: "You want to use it to make new winter clothes and sell them specifically to middle-class customers."

Although white foldables are not too expensive, they can be made into a complete set of winter coats at a high cost, so lower-class customers may not have many choices to purchase.

The upper class customers also have winter coats made of fine furs, as well as various clothes stuffed with duck feathers, goose feathers, etc., and they don't even bother to buy such low-quality products.

"Yes, I just don't know what the situation will be by then. Only a few sets of clothing styles have been determined at present, and the ready-made clothes are not ready yet. We have to see the thermal insulation effect after making them." Shen Yuan took out all the cotton in Mrs. Tang's bag. took it out and threw it back into the cotton pile. "What I need now is an embroiderer who is better at embroidery. I wonder if my brother has someone he can recommend to me?"

She currently only has good ideas and materials, but poor manpower and resources.

As the current young master of the Shen family, Shen Xuan naturally has enough manpower, so he can just tell Shen Yuan how many manpower he wants.

When the two of them decided on the matter and returned to the top floor of the shopping mall, Pei Zhaoxue was no longer inside.

The servant who stayed here said that he went down to buy things and asked Shen Yuan and the others to wait in the carriage after they finished their work.

It was late at night, and it was still snowing outside. Most of the gifts that should be bought back to the Shen family had been bought. What did Pei Zhaoxue buy again?

Shen Yuan was curious, but didn't pay too much attention. After understanding, she and Shen Xuan got out of the shop and headed for the carriage.

This time, because Pei Zhaoxue also came here, there were only four seats in the carriage. She, Pei Zhaoxue, and Mo Erzhiluo each had one seat, so there were no extra seats. Shen Xuan and Shen Yuan could not ride in the same carriage. , can only take the merchant's carriage.

"Young Master, do you want to leave now? Or should we wait for the second lady and the others to join us?"

Since we are not riding in the same carriage, there is no need to go together.

But Shen Xuan still shook his head and expressed that he wanted to go with Shen Yuan and the others.

Shen Yuan told her before that she was no longer happy with Pei Zhaoxue. He originally thought it was just a moment of anger.

But when he recalled that the relationship between the couple in front of him today was almost as light as water, and Shen Yuan no longer looked at Pei Zhaoxue with admiration in her eyes, he understood that she really did not lie to him.

Since they are going to make peace sooner or later, and they have no interest in Pei Zhaoxue anymore, will he have a chance?

The snow outside gradually turned from light to heavy. When Shen Yuan was writing a reply to Yun Qianqiu with an ink pen, Pei Zhaoxue entered the carriage dressed in wind and snow, holding a bag of hot chestnuts in his hand.

The scent of chestnuts was sweet, and Shen Yuan could smell it almost as soon as he brought something in.

If she remembered correctly, Pei Zhaoxue had never had any preference for food, and she had never seen him buy this kind of roadside snack, which was so weird.

"Take it, don't you like to eat this?"

The young man walked to Shen Yuan's side and handed her the chestnut paper bag in his hand, with a look of hope in his eyes that Shen Yuan rarely saw.

The booklet Yu Chiye gave her said that if you want to please a woman, you must start with all the little things.

He remembered that Shen Yuan liked to buy this thing in winter last year. It must be his favorite food?
  Shen Yuan stared at the young man's big, knuckled hands and gave him a puzzled look.

"Did you buy it especially for me?"

There is indeed a roasted chestnut shop near the Shen Family Shop.

Although it was already this late, the roasted chestnuts in this restaurant tasted good, and there were always a lot of customers. There was still a long queue when she came down just now.

Pei Zhaoxue was actually willing to spend so much time just for her?
  "Yes." The young man handed the paper bag in his hand forward, and Shen Yuan reached out to take it, still saying the perfunctory words she had always said since her rebirth, "You are interested."

"Is this the only one?"

Pei Zhaoxue frowned, but this time he was not as silent as before. He did not let go when she reached out to take it, and the two of them grabbed the chestnut paper bag at the same time.

 Shen Yuan:? What more do you want? Can I give you a mouthful?
    Pei Zhaoxue:.
