Chapter 35 Let her accompany his sweetheart to relieve his boredom?

When Li Ling came back, he saw that the house was empty, so he turned back to the courtyard and asked the old woman who was sweeping the porch, "Where's your wife?"

The mother-in-law replied respectfully: "Madam and girl Ziyun are making snacks in the small kitchen."

Li Ling returned to the house again, took off his official uniform and changed into his own clothes.

 I am tired after a whole day, but my heart is happy.

These days, her little wife seems to have been worrying about things in the garden, and is very impatient with him. Today, she personally cooked some snacks for him.

He likes her to be gentle to him. Li Ling curled his lips and sat down to pour tea and drink it by himself.

 After a while, I saw the little wife coming back, and the girl who followed behind her was indeed holding a small bamboo basket specially used to hold snacks.

Li Ling was happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He knew it and asked, "I didn't see you when I came back. What were you doing?"

Jingshu raised her eyes and glanced at him, then replied: "Go to the small kitchen to make some snacks." After saying that, she turned back and told Ziyun: "Put the snacks on the table to dry for a while, otherwise they will taste bad if you just put them in the box." Worse."

Ziyun agreed and put the small bamboo basket containing the snacks on the table. Seeing Li Ling staring at the snacks, Ziyun smiled and said, "Madam made them all by herself. Your Majesty, please try one." After that, she picked up a piece. Passed it to Li Ling.

The pastry is shaped like a lotus flower, with layers of puff pastry as thin as paper, and layers of red bean paste wrapped in it. It looks extremely delicate, because it has just come out of the pot and is still exuding a strong frankincense.

Li Ling took it and said casually: "What is this called?"

Ziyun smiled and replied: "My wife calls this snack 'Lotus Cake'."

Li Ling was about to open his mouth to try something new, but was snatched away by Jing Shu who came from the inner room.

 “This is for mother.”

She moved very quickly, with a slight anger on her face, and her tone also meant to blame him.

Li Ling was stunned.

Ziyun hurriedly tried to persuade him and said, "The prince saw that Madam made exquisite snacks and wanted to try one. Madam, there are many more here, enough to send to the princess tomorrow."

Jingshu also realized her gaffe. She explained: "The prince doesn't like sweets, so I put honey in my heart."

Li Ling smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't like anything sweet."

 He looked up at Jingshu, then looked up at the snack that she had taken away.

Jingshu put the snacks back into the bamboo basket and said to Ziyun indifferently: "Go and see if Danzhu and the others have brought the snack boxes? I think it's almost cold now, so let's pack them into boxes."

Ziyun glanced at Li Ling's face with fear and hesitated, "I'll go and hurry you up right now."

Within a moment, several little girls took out the snack boxes, and Jingshu carefully packed them piece by piece.

 There are five boxes in total.

I made five boxes of snacks, but I couldn’t bear to give him a piece.

Li Ling's heart was heavy, but when he looked at his young wife's sullen face, he couldn't bear to be angry with her.

 She is still young, and he, a grown man, cannot afford to get angry with a little woman over a trivial matter.

Li Ling got up and walked to the bed. When he saw the pile of account books, he flipped through them twice and asked, "I heard that grandma asked you to take charge of the house."

Jingshu was concentrating on wrapping the snack box and nodded yes, her face still calm.

Li Ling walked up to her and said with a smile: "When you take charge of a house, you become the mistress of the house. You are the mistress of this house."

Jingshu raised her head and said, "I'm afraid that my ability is limited and I won't be able to do it well."

She was just talking perfunctorily, but Li Ling opened up the conversation after listening to her words.

He said: "You have only been in the government for a short time and you are still young, so you don't need to have any psychological burden. If you don't do well, grandma won't blame you." "Besides, aren't there Uncle Xiang and Uncle Fu below?" Well. In the past, when the second aunt was in charge of the house, she didn't worry about everything. When it came to matters, the two housekeepers took care of them before reporting to her. I didn't need to do everything personally. "

"Uncle Xiang is mainly in charge of external affairs. Like Zhuangzi, he is in charge of everything in the shop. Uncle Fu is in charge of the affairs in the house. If you don't understand anything, just go to them and ask them. Or, you are worried that you are young and can't handle it. If anyone who lives down there dares to disobey you, just come and tell me and I will help you with the cooking, and "

Jing Shu wrapped the snack box without any distractions, smiled faintly at Li Ling, interrupted him and said: "I understand, thank you Prince for the suggestion.

Li Ling was suddenly interrupted by her while he was talking endlessly. Then he closed his mouth angrily and stared at her with lowered eyes.

Jingshu raised her head and asked, "Why is the prince looking at me like this?"

Li Ling took her hand, looked at her and said, "Why did you call me like that again?"

Jingshu replied: "I'm used to it, and I can't change it for a while."

Li Ling's eyes dimmed and he whispered, "Are you always angry with me about what happened that day?"

Jingshu asked: "What is the prince referring to? I don't understand."

Li Ling knew that she was pretending to be confused, so he took her hand and explained hurriedly: "It was really an emergency that day. I..."

 What's urgent? Are you a miracle doctor? You can save lives by rushing over?

Just like in the previous life, Qingluan was forced to get married, and he was also desperate for her.

 She is his weakness.

 He just cares about her too much!

In her last life, Jingshu had been trapped in this matter and could not resolve it. Now that she has looked away, he can just let him be if he cares about other women.

Since she married him, she must establish herself in this house and be the mistress of the house.

It's okay if she doesn't get true love. She wants to defend her position with all her strength.

"I told you a long time ago that I didn't care about what happened that day. It was the prince who was too worried." Jing Shu said.

Li Ling said dullly: "I see that you are not treating me like before these days."

Jingshu sat down at the table, took out an account, and said casually: "There are too many things going on these days. First, my grandmother was sick, and now I have to learn to run a business." As she said that, she pointed to the pile of things in front of her. There was a mountain of account books, and he continued: "Look, just these accounts are enough for me to look at for a few days."

 Li Ling stood next to Jing Shu, patted the account books with his free hand, and said, "You can take your time and look at these things when you have time. There is no rush."

"I handed a sign to the palace a few days ago to ask my grandmother to go into the palace to see Qingluan. This morning someone from the palace came back and said that two female relatives can be allowed to go to the palace tomorrow."

 After listening to Li Ling's words, Jing Shu's eyes moved from the account book to his face.

Li Ling looked at Jing Shu and said, "I'm thinking about it. You can accompany your grandmother the day after tomorrow."

"Do you think I'm suitable?" Jing Shu asked expressionlessly after hearing what he said.

Li Ling replied: "What's inappropriate about this? According to the etiquette, a foreigner is not allowed to enter the palace without a royal decree, but since the palace has shown mercy, you can just go with your grandmother."

He looked at Jing Shu and said with a smile: "You haven't been to the palace yet, so you might as well go and see it. There are many strange things in the palace. Let Qingluan accompany you and grandma around. She is alone in the palace. It’s also boring.”

Let her accompany his sweetheart to relieve his boredom?

 How did he come up with it?

 “I’m not going!” Jing Shu replied.

There was no emotion in her tone, but Li Ling clearly felt her displeasure.

 “Why?” he blurted out.

"I don't like to go." After saying that, she lowered her head and continued to read the account book.
