Double Life: The Long Road to Chasing Your Wife

Because Mr. Zhou had an entourage and Mr. Zhang had someone to pick him up, Lin Shu arranged for Chen Laoer to take Mr. Xue back.

After everyone else left, Lin Shu first helped the half-drunk Su Yi to the bed, and then went to the hall to clean up the mess with Lin's mother.

"Miss, who is the Duke of Xiao who came today? He seems to be as old as my uncle, and he has become the Duke. I have never heard from my uncle that a big shot is coming. Will we neglect him by preparing these things? Will it happen in the future? Will it affect my uncle’s career?”

"Originally, Duke Xiao was the Marquis of Xiao. He was named Duke because of his meritorious service in assisting the current emperor. My husband didn't know why Duke Xiao came. It seemed that Duke Xiao was very happy with the meal. He even gave me a monthly salary increase. Maybe it was You must reuse your husband." Lin Shu recalled that in the previous life, Xiao Yan hosted a banquet for everyone in Dali Temple, and Su Yi was sitting on Xiao Yan's left hand side. It seems that Xiao Yan is the same as the previous life, and it is very likely that he wants to reuse Su Yi.

But Lin Shu didn't think much about it, and Lin Shu didn't expect that her peaceful life with Su Yi would soon change.

"That's good! Miss, this is a gift from several adults. You have to ask my uncle who gave it to each of them, and make a registration so that you can repay the gift later." Mother Lin found it on the chopping board behind the central table. The gifts piled up by Su Yi reminded Lin Shu to register and they would have to repay the gifts in the future.

Lin Shu heard the sound and looked over, and saw the eye-catching blue gift box at a glance. She knew that it was from Xiao Yan, because she was beside him when Xiao Yan handed it to Su Yi.

Lin Shu pointed to the eye-catching blue gift box and said to Mother Lin:

"I'm not sure about the gift boxes given by the other adults. The blue one was sent by Xiao Guogong. At that time, my husband, Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhang were in the study. I was just serving food when I heard a knock on the door, so I went to open the door. .”

Mother Lin picked up the box and looked at it carefully. She was very curious about what Xiao Yan gave!

"Miss, would you like to open it now and see what's inside!" Mother Lin asked in a curious tone, and she had to obtain Lin Shu's consent first.

"Open it!" Lin Shu said casually. In her last life, she took care of the Xiao Mansion. The Xiao Mansion gave gifts to some ornaments at home, either jade or jade. If it was better, she would also give "Guanyin Guanyin" to someone who got married. , in fact, depending on the person giving it, sometimes calligraphy and painting will be given, but calligraphy and painting will not be packed in such a small gift box, so Lin Shu was not curious about what Xiao Yan gave.

With Lin Shu's consent, Mother Lin carefully brought the blue gift box to the big table and gently opened the ribbon on it.

"Miss, Mr. Xiao Guo spent so generously. Inside is a pair of pure gold heads and faces! There are rubies inlaid on the steps." Mother Lin covered her mouth and said in surprise.

'Pure gold', 'ruby', 'head and face', Lin Shu seemed to have thought of something based on these keywords.

Lin Shu put down her work and walked to the big table. Mother Lin turned the blue gift box towards Lin Shu.

The moment Lin Shu saw what was inside the box, her heart skipped a beat.

After she married Xiao Yan in her previous life, when she was serving tea the next day, Mrs. Hou gave her a ruby ​​nugget, specially reserved for the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family. After Lin Shu put it away in her previous life, she only stayed with Xiao Yan. I wore it once when attending a palace banquet and once when entertaining Xiao Yan's colleagues. After that, it was stored in the warehouse of Xiao Mansion.

But Xiao Yan is already married. This head and face should be in the hands of Xiao Yan's wife. How could he give it as a gift?

"Miss."

"Miss."

……

"Miss."

"Huh?" Mother Lin shouted several times before she pulled Lin Shu out of her thoughts.

"Miss, why are you suddenly in a daze? I called you several times."

Lin Shu put the back of her right hand on her forehead and rubbed it, then closed her eyes and said to Mother Lin:

"I'm fine. Maybe I'm tired today."

Lin Shu did not let Mother Lin notice her abnormality.

"Everything is almost packed. Miss, you go take a nap first, and I will slowly pack up the rest." Mother Lin supported Lin Shu and said with concern while letting Lin Shu sit down.

Lin Shu sat on the stool, with her left hand on her hips, and glanced at Xiao Yan's head again. She always felt that something was wrong, and she couldn't say what was wrong.

"Mother Lin, keep the noodle given by Xiao Guogong. It is too precious. I have to ask my husband to return it tomorrow." Lin Shu knew the significance of this noodle in the Xiao Mansion, so she could not keep it. She was more worried about Xiao Yan brought the wrong one. After all, it belonged to Xiao Yan’s current wife, so it would be better to send it back.

"Miss, although it's strange for Xiao Guogong to give you a gift, would it be bad to return the gift?" Mother Lin said worriedly.

"This head and face are valuable, maybe they belong to his wife. They put them in the wrong way or took the wrong ones when preparing the gifts. Normal colleagues would not give the heads and faces to the other party's female family members when they are in normal interactions. If they do, they should be given to the women's family members. "

"Miss, what you said makes sense." Mother Lin felt that what Lin Shu said was reasonable, and she put back the head and face that Xiao Yan had given her.

As soon as Lin Shu looked up, she saw Su Yuanyuan playing with the little people in the yard. She suddenly thought that there were guests at home today, and Su Yuanyuan had not finished the homework she had assigned to her today.

"Yuanyuan, stop playing. Now go to the study to practice calligraphy. I will check before going to bed."

"Okay." Su Yuanyuan responded obediently and walked to Lin Shu.

"Sister-in-law, can you play with the copybooks on the table after you finish practicing?"

Lin Shu touched Su Yuanyuan's head and said:

"Well, practice your calligraphy well. I asked my cousin to find a private school. I will send you there in a few days. From now on, you must study hard with your husband. If you don't understand, just ask. Do you understand?"

"Okay, thank you sister-in-law. I'm going to practice calligraphy first. Are you tired? Take a good rest when you are."

"Go quickly!" Lin Shu looked at Su Yuanyuan with a gentle face, watching Su Yuanyuan jump towards the study room.

"Miss, Yuanyuan is really an obedient and good child." Mother Lin also said happily looking at Su Yuanyuan's retreating back.

"Yuanyuan grew up with her husband. She must have been taught well by her husband."

"Mother Lin, do you think that if my husband and I have a child, will it be as well-behaved and sensible as Yuanyuan?" Lin Shu touched her belly and sighed and asked Mother Lin. She and Su Yi had been married for more than half a year, and they were also married. I have been recuperating my body and haven’t drank the Bizi Soup like in my previous life. Why is there no movement in my stomach at all?

Of course, she didn't know that there were already two seeds sprouting in her belly.

"Miss, don't worry. You and my uncle are still young. You will have children gradually. Don't be anxious. You can't rush this kind of thing." Mother Lin comforted her.

"I hope so! Mother Lin, remember to leave some food for Xi'er and don't let her rest on an empty stomach. I'll go and rest for a while first."

Xi'er was the maid that Lin Shu had just bought. Because Xuyang Pavilion was busy, Xi'er went to the store to help instead of Lin Shu and Lin's mother, and was not in Su Mansion.
