The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Chapter 40 Comparing Footprints

In the study room of Shangyongyuan, Ouyang Sheng stood facing the bookcase and his back to the door. Sunlight streamed in slantingly from the window, and the brocade-patterned carpet, mahogany bookcase, and his shoulders decorated with dragons and embroidered phoenixes were all dyed with layers of gold powder, sparkling with light.

Standing alone, with his back so straight, he does not look like a prince who is idle at home, but like a soldier who is accustomed to military life.

Ye Yuxiao stood outside the door, glanced at Ouyang Sheng, and finally his eyes fell on the brocade carpet in front of the desk.

There is dust on the carpet.

It was a carpet embroidered with brocade inscriptions of square chess flowers, decorated with magnolia lace, and woven with brocade inscriptions of Sihe Ruyi and Tianhua in the center. The carpet is expensive and it is said that it was a reward from the palace during the heyday of the Qi Palace.

Carpets not only have complex patterns, but also use a wide variety of colors. Wood red is the base, and orange, light yellow, pink, pure white, dark blue, light blue, and peacock blue are the edges. Even if there is dust falling on it, it is not easily visible.

However, there was indeed dust on the carpet.

A thin layer, not much, and even. If you look carefully, you can still see tiny dust particles floating in the sunlight, dancing lightly.

The maid of Shangyongyuan was so careless that she let dust fall on the carpet under Ouyang Sheng's nose?

Ye Yuxiao pulled away the maid who was about to come in to report, looked around again, and soon found a folded piece of clearing paper on the desk. Through the back of the Chengxin paper, you can vaguely see a meticulous painting on the paper, and the outline and direction of the strokes of the meticulous painting look like...a shoe print? +------------Shoe print? Why did Ouyang Sheng put a shoe print on his desk?

This shoe print is probably related to her, otherwise she wouldn't be asked to come. Let her think about it, think about it...

People majoring in medicine have absolutely first-class memory, because once you enter the medical field, it is as deep as the sea, with endless books to memorize and endless tests to take, and it feels like you are taking the college entrance examination every year.

As a top student majoring in medicine, Ye Yuxiao was naturally no exception, and it didn't take long for him to remember it. Inside the palace, the imprisoned side hall, the clothes scattered on the ground...

It turns out that she was careless.

As soon as she stepped through the door, Ouyang Sheng would tie her legs and find out what shoes she was wearing, right?

what to do?

Turn around and leave? Leaving for no reason will make people even more suspicious.

Fortunately, she didn't have much else but a lot of ideas. With a flick of her finger, Ye Yuxiao called over the maid who was about to go in just now to announce: "My aunt seems to be here. I'll go back and change my clothes before coming back." . Where the prince is, you can tell me."

Ye Yuxiao was afraid that Ouyang Sheng would hear her inside and force her to stay, so she ran away after saying that.

Xiao Zhuan was waiting at the gate of Xiaoyun Court and was extremely surprised to see Ye Yuxiao coming back so soon.

Ye Yuxiao hurriedly stepped across the threshold and asked her, "Do I have shoes that don't fit?"

Xiaozhan didn't hear clearly for a moment: "Why, Princess, do your shoes not fit?"

"What I want are shoes that don't fit, not shoes that fit." Ye Yuxiao said.

Shoes that don’t fit? Why would the princess have such a request? Xiaozhan was stunned for a moment and said: "If you wear slave's shoes, they won't fit your feet."

"No, I can't wear yours." Ye Yuxiao said, "The pattern on the soles will be different."

"It must be your own shoes, and they must not fit..." Xiaozhan thought for a while and said, "The shoes you wore when you first married into Prince Qi's house half a year ago are still in storage. I will take them out for you to see. ?”

"Hurry." Ye Yuxiao nodded and entered the inner room.

Xiaozhan opened the cabinet and took out a few pairs of old shoes. As expected, they were smaller than Ye Yuxiao's current feet.

Thank you that I was only fifteen when I got married. It was the time to grow taller. After only half a year, my feet were already big.

Ye Yuxiao took off her shoes in a few seconds and stuffed her feet into the old shoes. These shoes are no better than clothes. Even if they are half an inch smaller, they are still very dangerous. Seeing that the insteps of her feet were arched due to the squeeze, Xiaozhan asked distressedly: "Princess, don't you feel pain?"

It hurts, of course it hurts, but I can’t care less. Ye Yuxiao waved his hand: "Take all my shoes that fit and take them to your room. I will only wear old shoes from now on."

"Princess, these are small shoes! You will only wear small shoes from now on? Why?" Xiaozhan was extremely surprised.

After being together for these days, Ye Yuxiao already understood Xiao Zuan's approach and said casually: "Because the prince likes it."

As expected, Xiaozhan was no longer surprised. He stopped asking more questions and his efficiency improved. He got things done in the blink of an eye.

Look at the energy of the little maid, will she be the saddest person after she and Ouyang Sheng reconcile? Ye Yuxiao pressed her aggrieved toes, stood up, and headed towards Shang Yongyuan.

In the study room of Shangyongyuan, Ouyang Sheng still kept his back to the door, but when he heard Ye Yuxiao's footsteps entering the door, he turned around.

"What does the prince want from me?" Ye Yuxiao stepped forward.

"Where did you get your aunt?" Ouyang Sheng asked rhetorically, "As far as I know, your deceased mother was the only daughter of King Pingnan. She had no sisters."

Ye Yuxiao blinked, blinked again, and froze.

It's over, I left in a hurry just now and forgot to change my aunt into a small day with the maid. How could she explain this? Give Ouyang Sheng a professional physiological hygiene class on the spot? But even though she is a modern person, she still feels very embarrassed!

Ye Yuxiao had no choice but to be cryptic and hesitant: "Maybe it's because I spoke too fast just now, and the maid misunderstood. In fact, what I said was... Hey, you ask so clearly what to do when it comes to women!"

She was vague in her words, but Ouyang Sheng understood. His face turned red and he changed the topic: "I have a medical book written by Dr. Tan. You can take it back and read it. As his 'disciple', if you even have him I haven’t read any of his masterpieces, doesn’t that make people suspicious?”

as you wish. Ye Yuxiao stepped forward and stepped on the carpet: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking the trouble."

She took the book and moved back, leaving a faint footprint on the carpet.

Ouyang Sheng glanced at her calmly and said to her, "You've got the book and you're still not leaving? You want to take advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of me?"

Who wants to take advantage of him? He looks so handsome and amazing! She doesn't care! Ye Yuxiao didn't bother to argue with him, so she glared at him fiercely, turned around and left.

Ouyang Sheng did not forget to shout at her back: "Ms. Ye, don't forget the agreement between you and me!"

Promise, promise, can we not mention the promise for once? She even accepted the divorce papers, are you afraid that she will default on the debt? Ye Yuxiao's ears pricked, she was really fed up and kicked the door of his study hard before leaving.

Ouyang Sheng dismissed the attendants, locked the door of the study that was shaken by Ye Yuxiao's kick, and moved a paperweight from the left side of the desk to the right side.

After a while, the shadow came out of the secret room and asked, "Has the princess come?"

Ouyang Sheng glanced at the door and said sadly: "She still has feelings for me. She just kicked down the door because I was driving her away."

"My lord, don't worry, it will be King Pingnan's birthday in a few more days." Shadow comforted him.

Ouyang Sheng nodded, put away his sadness, pointed at the carpet, and smiled: "It worked. Look, those are the footprints she just left."
