I am cannon fodder, but I can hug thighs

Song Shiqiu went to Xia Hong's private vault, looked around and picked out an exquisite glazed tower and a warm jade Buddha amulet for Lin Jin. After making his selections, he left the Forbidden City leisurely. The eunuch beside Xia Hong looked at the two items he had picked out and dared not say a word.

Otherwise, how can we say that the Prime Minister has good taste? He picked out the rarest ones at once.

Song Shiqiu put the Buddha amulet into his lapel, but held the glazed pagoda in his hand for fear that it might break. He rode the horse with one hand and headed towards the Lin Mansion, but when he was almost there, he suddenly pulled the reins and just looked at the Lin Mansion without taking another step forward.

What reason would he give to give the things to Lin Liu? What if Lin Liu didn't like the two treasures but pretended to be happy because of him?

The family guards who were assigned to secretly protect Lin Jin saw their master coming and going in a hurry and his "homesick" look. They exchanged glances with each other, but immediately pretended that they saw nothing and knew nothing.

What adults are thinking cannot be told and cannot be guessed.

Song Shiqiu felt uneasy, but he didn't understand why. He looked at the glazed tower in his hand. As the prime minister, wasn't it too shabby for him to give these two items as a gift? In the past, he saw the prince coaxing people and giving rare items to the other party's yard.

Thinking of this, he immediately frowned. His wife, Song Shiqiu, couldn't be inferior to the prince's concubine. But when he thought that being so blatant might make people jealous of Lin Jin, his brows suddenly relaxed, and he walked into the Lin Mansion confidently and calmly with the glazed tower in his hand.

Lin Jin was reading a storybook to kill time. Although the classical Chinese version of the storybook did make her feel a little unnatural, fortunately, she had strong reading comprehension, so even though she read slowly, she could still understand it.

But because he was translating so seriously, he didn't notice Song Shiqiu coming in.

"What are you looking at so fascinated?"

Song Shiqiu's voice exploded in his ears like thunder. Lin Jin was in a hurry to put the book away, just like someone who was caught reading a novel in school. He smiled awkwardly at Song Shiqiu: "Haha, sir, why are you back?"

Help, why did Song Shiqiu come back?

Lin Jin still remembered that when she first arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, she asked Xunmian and the others if they had any storybooks to pass the time. Xunmian and the others directly told her that such books that would make one lose one's ambition were forbidden in the mansion. Although she was not in the Prime Minister's Mansion now, the person in front of her was the Prime Minister himself, and she was scared.

"Huh? What are you looking at?" Song Shiqiu spread his hands towards Lin Jin, asking her to hand over the book.

Lin Jin hesitated to give it to him. Anyway, Song Shiqiu couldn't really come up and snatch it. If he refused to hand it over, it would be fine. But if he handed it over, he might be scolded: "Nothing."

This damn oppressive feeling of being stared at by the teacher.

"Ajin." Song Shiqiu's voice carried a hint of pressure.

"It's just a leisure book to kill time." Lin Jin pursed his lips, frowned unconsciously, and looked a little aggrieved. "You know, I can't study when I'm sick, and it's too boring if I don't read something."

She is not in the Prime Minister's Residence, why are you staring at her like that?

"Give it to me." Song Shiqiu said in an unquestionable tone.

Lin Jin shook her head, panicking: "No."

If Song Shiqiu saw this book, she would be doomed, for no other reason than that she happened to see the erotic part in it.

One of them hid under the quilt holding the book, and the other sat on the bed with his hands spread out. The two of them were in a stalemate. Finally, Song Shiqiu slowed down his voice and said, "I won't scold you. Bring the book here. Don't waste too much energy while you are still sick."

Lin Jin still didn't believe it. Even if he said he wouldn't scold her now, she would be afraid of being slapped on the palm of her hand when she really saw the contents of the book later.

Song Shiqiu laughed angrily: "You don't believe me, you are just a little girl, why would I lie to you?"

If he really wanted to scold her, would he need to get the 'dirty stuff' first?

Lin Jin took out the book reluctantly and handed it to Song Shiqiu tremblingly: "We agreed that you can't scold me."

Song Shiqiu hummed, took the book, glanced at it casually, and saw the erotic part that Lin Jin had just read. His handsome face flushed, and he looked at the title again. He threw the book in his hand away like a flood and beast: "Nonsense, why are you reading such obscene lyrics and songs?"

"You said you wouldn't scold me." Lin Jin reminded, then stiffened his neck and said stubbornly, "You can't blame me. It's called Yue Han Ji. I thought the title was quite serious and it was just a short story. I didn't expect there would be these in it."

She was also wronged. She originally thought it was just some vegetable porridge, but it turned out to be a big piece of fish and meat. She was just deceived.

Well... well, she actually enjoyed reading it, she didn't expect the ancients to have such an open style of writing.

"Don't read these anymore. If you want to read storybooks, I'll have someone find you some serious ones later." The blush on Song Shiqiu's face had not yet faded. Thinking that the small item he picked for Lin Jin had not been given away yet, he took out the thing.

Lin Jin's attention was successfully drawn away. She stared at the beautiful glazed tower, staring at it intently: "What is this?"

"This is a glass tower sent as tribute from the West. I think it's beautiful, so I brought it to you." Song Shiqiu handed the glass tower to Lin Jin and looked at Lin Jin's expression carefully. "Take a look and see if you like it."

Lin Jin took the glazed tower, looked left and right, and accidentally touched a switch. The glazed tower started to turn and made a crisp sound: "Music box?"

These skilled craftsmen in ancient times were truly amazing. Although Lin Jin had seen many music boxes, this was the first time she had seen an ancient version.

"Like?" Song Shiqiu first breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled complacently. This is how it should be. What he picked must be what Lin Liu likes.

"Is this for me?" Lin Jin fiddled with the glazed tower happily. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

"Yes." Song Shiqiu said as he took out another Buddha amulet, which was also for Lin Jin. "This is a Buddha amulet that was blessed by the most respected abbot of Huguo Temple. Keep it well. It will keep you safe."

Lin Jin looked at the jade Buddha amulet. She didn't know if it could guarantee safety, but she knew that anything Song Shiqiu gave away must be very expensive: "Thank you, sir."

"Like it too?" Song Shiqiu raised his eyebrows.

Lin Jin looked at Song Shiqiu in confusion. What else? Shouldn't he like it? Who doesn't like valuable things?

She thought it was a bit tacky to say so. After all, the gift was given by Song Shiqiu, so she still had to praise it: "Of course I like the gifts given by adults. It's not that I value them, but they are given by adults, so they are particularly precious."

Sorry, she was being sarcastic. She likes it because it is expensive.

She is the poorest among these people, so it’s not too much for her to be a little greedy, right?

The corners of Song Shiqiu's cold lips curled up slightly, and he looked at her steadily: "I will send it to you when I return to the Prime Minister's Mansion in half a month."

"Ah, ah?" Lin Jin felt something was not right. She just praised him a few words, and he gave her a gift?

"I'm sorry to have to trouble you now." Song Shiqiu didn't even realize that his eyes were filled with affection, and his gentleness was totally different from the past.

Lin Jin blushed for a rare moment, and stammered, not knowing what to say: "No, no."

She didn't feel wronged or not, but she felt that Song Shiqiu was scary now, and it seemed that the big villain was a little abnormal in the past two days.

No matter how slow she was, she could sense that something was wrong. After all, Song Shiqiu would never look at Song Shixia with such eyes. This was definitely not the look a brother should give to a woman.

"Sir, aren't you busy these two days?" Lin Jin asked cautiously. She remembered that Song Shiqiu was always busy every day. If Song Shiqiu had been here for a whole day yesterday, how would he have had time to handle official business? Are you sure you want to stay here today?

"It's okay, I'll stay with you for a while." It's not that Song Shiqiu isn't busy, he's just worried.

Lin Jin felt extremely guilty: "How can I do this?" Song Shiqiu's official duties concern the country and the people. "My lord, please go back first. You will..."

Let her mistakenly believe that I am a witch who brings disaster to the country and the people, oooh.

Song Shiqiu glanced at her and said, "Okay, I'll go back first. If there's anything you want, just ask them."

Song Shiqiu left, and when he left he took the book "Yue Han Ji" with him.

Lin Jin: “…” Is this really necessary?
