The General's Favorite Wife Strategy

Stayed at home for one night, and the general and his wife went back the next day.

Mrs. Shen was worried about her son's suffering, and she was also afraid that his son would be gossiped if he did not do well, so she dragged Shen Chen to tell him for a long time.It wasn't until Shen Chen couldn't see it anymore and spoke to stop her that she reluctantly let Shen Chen go.

Thinking of going back to that courtyard again, Shen Chen's expression was also not good.Zhan Yang caught a glimpse of his gray expression, and pursed his lips calmly.

Sending Shen Chen home, the busy General Zhan entered the palace again.

The old housekeeper was waiting at the door, and seeing the young lady watching General Zhan leave with "reluctance", he couldn't help feeling happy for the general.

His family's general is naturally calm, and now someone is finally willing to take him into his heart, which makes him unhappy.

Thinking about it this way, he felt that Shen Chen, the young lady, was pleasing to the eye. For the rumors he heard in the market these days, he automatically turned to those people who envied his general and his wife's good relationship and maliciously slandered them.

"Young Madam, it's windy outside, please go back to the house." The old housekeeper said politely.

Hearing someone talking suddenly, Shen Chen remembered that the old butler was here!His face froze, the old housekeeper probably didn't see the grimace he made at Zhan Yang's back just now?

He pretended to cough, pretending that nothing happened just now, and turned to enter the room.

As soon as Shen Chen stepped into the courtyard, he found that there were many more servants, and the originally deserted courtyard suddenly became popular.

Seeing that he was back, Qiuguo greeted the new and old servants to stand in the yard together: "Young Madam is back."

Standing at the door, Shen Chen neither entered nor retreated. In the end, he stepped into the courtyard under tremendous pressure, and smiled stiffly with the corners of his mouth: "Everyone...Hello!"

"I've met the Young Madam!" A dozen or so people were uniform and shouted so loudly that everyone in the next street probably heard it.

Shen Chen couldn't help but touch his forehead. Although he had slowly accepted the fact that he was the young lady, he still felt shy when so many people called him out so loudly!

"Let's go, let's go!" Qiuguo sent them away, and when she saw the old housekeeper come in, she saluted and went on her own way.

The housekeeper also heard the angry greeting just now, he couldn't help being proud, he deserves to be the servant he taught, so polite!

"Young Madam, are you feeling unwell?"

Shen Chen took off the hand covering his forehead and waved it weakly: "It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy."

The old butler looked at the big sun in the sky, and thought to himself, this yard is really too spacious, so I can get some grapes or wisteria flowers another day, so that the young lady won't get dizzy from the sun.

It was still early when he came back from Shen's mansion, and he arrived at the General's mansion just in time for lunch.Shen Chen thought of this after sitting in the room for a while, and called Qiu Guo dejectedly, asking her to clean up for herself, so that she could go to the old lady in a dignified way.

Qiu Guo pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Young Madam, you don't have to go. The housekeeper told you to leave the old lady. The old lady agrees. It's okay to let you rest for a few more days."

When Shen Chen heard this, he immediately regained his spirits, and he was very grateful to the housekeeper who behaved strangely.

After stealing half a day's leisure, Shen Chen went to the study to read a few books, and when he fell asleep, he lay down on the soft couch to rest.As he fell asleep, he felt something bump against his leg.

He sat up abruptly, staring at the housekeeper who was squatting on the ground with a ball of cotton in his hand.

The two stared at each other for a moment, the old butler grinned and said, "Young Madam, lie down, old man, I will give you medicine."

Shen Chen hurriedly withdrew his legs: "You can't do it, I'll just do it myself!" He snatched the cotton from the old housekeeper's hand and applied the medicine himself.

The old butler saw Shen Chen's expression in his eyes, and thought that the young lady was indeed a virtuous and virtuous person, and with him by the general's side, he would definitely be a companion who knows the cold and the hot.He narrowed his eyes in satisfaction and walked away with a smile.

Shen Chen didn't know that all his unintentional actions had been included in the young lady's assessment by the old housekeeper, and after applying the medicine, he disappeared from drowsiness.

He was bored, and it was impossible for him to discuss with Qiuguo about female reds, so he had no choice but to go back to the study, flip through Zhan Yang's pile of obscure art of war, saw the pen and ink, and wrote for himself.

Speaking of Zhan Yang, he was about to leave after discussing things, but was stopped by the emperor.

"General Zhan just got married, so you don't have to work so hard, you should spend more time with Madam." Holding a teacup, the emperor said slowly, "General Zhan is marrying the... son of the Shen family?"

It was the emperor who ordered the marriage, but now he is pretending to be confused!

Zhan Yang cupped his fists and said, "It's the only son of the Shen family, Shen Chen."

"Well, good. Speaking of which, the old man of the Shen family is also the late emperor's confidant. Today, the Zhan and Shen families are one family. This is a blessing for the people of Huaguo!"

Zhan Yang lowered his head and suppressed the look in his eyes, and answered the emperor's words in a neutral manner.

The Zhan family and the Shen family are both big families in Huaguo. The Shen family has only one child, and the Zhan family has only one person.

No matter what other people's purpose is to write a letter suggesting that the emperor bestow a marriage, but marrying the young master of the Shen family means that after the Shen family and the Zhan family are cut off at the same time, there is no need to worry about Zhan and Shen's two high-achieving masters. Use the marriage of two men to suppress his prestige.

The emperor's seemingly foolish move is really brilliant!

Zhan Yang sneered, I'm afraid they had planned too well and ended up ruining their own business!

I don't know what the old butler told the old lady, anyway, Shen Chen's current life is eating and reading, and if he is really bored, he goes to the study to write and draw.

"Qiu Guo! It's so boring...Is there anything I can do to pass the time!" Shen Chen lied on the table feebly, groaning weakly.

"Young madam, there is no work for you to do in this yard." Qiuguo brought someone in and said to Shen Chen, "This is sent by the young madam's natal family. It's okay to say that you don't have a dowry maid."

A little girl walked out from behind her, she pursed her lips and smiled when she saw Shen Chen: "Shen Liang has seen the Young Madam."

The little girl was cute, Shen Chen became interested when she heard that her surname was Shen, and looked at her curiously: "Your surname is Shen? Which uncle's child are you from?"

Shen Liangdao: "The servant girl was brought back to the Shen family by the third master. The third master felt sorry for the servant girl and changed her name. I hope the servant girl is kind-hearted and will repay her kindness."

Oh, this is very similar to what the third uncle would do.Shen Chen nodded, and said to Qiu Guo: "Then she will follow you."

"Young madam, this is brought to you by the madam." Shen Liang took out an oiled paper bag from the small bundle that he carried with him, opened it, and saw a nest of pink snacks exuding a faint fragrance.

Shen Chen's unhappiness for many days has been thrown out of the sky since he saw these small snacks. He carefully picked up a piece with his fingers and looked at it for a long time before putting it in his mouth...

"Well, my mother must have done it!"

The dim sum melted in the mouth, and the fragrance lingered on the lips and teeth. It was so beautiful that the pores of Shen Chen's whole body were open, and he shivered when he squinted his eyes.

Seeing his slanderous expression, Qiuguo covered her mouth and snickered, thinking about it, she thought of a good idea.She said: "This dessert looks pleasing to the eye, can Young Madam know how to make it?"

Shen Chen carefully wrapped the rest of the snacks, and shook his head helplessly: "I don't know how, my mother made them for me."

"If you are bored, young lady, how about learning how to do it?"

Shen Chen seemed to have heard a big joke: "Let me learn how to make dim sum? I'm afraid this yard is not enough for me to burn!"

Maybe there is a lesson from the past, Shen Liang grumbled and laughed.Shen Chen glared at her with a blushing face, waved to Qiu Guo and said, "You better forgive me, I really don't know how to do this."

Qiu Guo smiled and said, "It's not that you want to cook it for someone, but to pass the time. What's more, you are the young wife of the Zhan family. Even if it's not for yourself, it's good for the general to learn from."

When Shen Chen heard it, what she said made sense.

Of course, he didn't do it for Zhan Yang, but for what his mother said.

Whether he likes it or not, the name of his general's wife cannot be removed.Even for his parents, he must gain a firm foothold in the Zhan family.

Qiu Guo is a master who is very good at observing words and expressions. Seeing that Shen Chen has stopped talking, he hurriedly strikes while the iron is hot, "In a few days, the old lady will take the female family members to Suolong Temple to eat fast and chant Buddha for a few days. The food will be prepared by myself. If You don't have the slightest..."

"I see." Shen Chen sighed dejectedly.

Qiuguo snickered, changed his clothes, and then took him to the kitchen to find the master.

The courtyard where Zhan Yang lives has an independent kitchen, and he does not eat with the old lady on weekdays.It's just that he is not at home these few days, so the kitchen is free.

Seeing Qiuguo bringing someone with him, the cook leaned over with a smile, "Qiuguo, why are you free?"

Qiu Guo rolled his eyes at him, revealing his background and Shen Chen who was following her, said to the cook, "Young madam wants to learn some skills, you should be more serious!"

Facing the surprised look in the chef's eyes, Shen Chen could only smile calmly.

"Young Madam, please come with me. What do you want to learn? The general loves vegetable porridge, why don't I teach you this?" The cook asked Shen Chen enthusiastically.

Hearing that Zhan Yang's favorite is green vegetable porridge, Shen Chen couldn't believe it. As a soldier, shouldn't there be chicken, duck, fish, and fresh seafood on the table when eating, so that he can maintain his strength?Just a little vegetable porridge is your favorite?

The cook noticed what he was thinking, and said: "Young Madam doesn't know, the general prefers light taste, and the only meat he likes is beef."

Shen Chen nodded: "That's all right, I'll learn this. It's just me... Master, please take care of me."

"Ma'am, don't worry!"

Seeing that Shen Chen started to learn in style, Qiuguo happily ran to announce the good news to the old housekeeper.

What a happy report, of course the young lady is willing to cook for the general!

As soon as the old housekeeper heard the news, he didn't even care about decocting the old lady's medicine. He threw down his fan and ran to the courtyard where the general lived.

As he approached the kitchen, he was actually a little nervous, standing at the door panting for a long time before he dared to go in.

He cautiously approached the stove, and saw Shen Chen wearing an apron carefully looking at the... porridge in the pot.

"The young lady is learning how to cook porridge?"

Shen Chen didn't raise his head, and hummed.

The housekeeper smiled gratifiedly: "Young Madam is really ingenious, the general is lucky."

His kung fu of opening his eyes and telling nonsense is unmatched, Shen Chen was ashamed by what he said, so he had to bury his head even lower, pretending that he was really good at what he did.
