MTL - Time Traveling: the Only Beloved Husband-Chapter 7
When Xia Rong heard about the move, she looked at the snowmen in the yard and felt a little bit reluctant. Before he got married, he had never been reluctant to leave the house where he had lived for more than ten years, but he had feelings for this small courtyard where he had only lived for more than a month.
Shen Xiangyan put his hands on Xia Rong's shoulders, and asked softly, "Aren't you reluctant to part with those two snowmen? The two snowmen are even more reluctant to part with this place where they have lived for more than a month, even he himself has feelings for this place where he woke up.
Xia Rong shook her head, and held her husband's fingers under the cover of her sleeves. He knew that it was this person who made him feel affectionate, not the two snowmen or the yard. No matter where he went, as long as he was there The place is his home.
It took a whole day to move, but the two masters of the Shen family didn't have much stuff. It was mainly Shen Xiangyan's spices, the servants didn't know how to deal with them, so he had to make everything by himself. Of course, when it comes to moving, the two little rabbits raised by Xia Rong must have not forgotten to take them away. Since the two little rabbits arrived at Shen's house, they have been served by Xia Rong with delicious food and drink. Brighter.
The new home has been replaced with a door plaque with the words "Shen House" written on it. Entering the vermilion gate is a spacious courtyard, and going forward is the hall for guests in the outer courtyard. Walking through the corridor and entering through the hanging flower door on the left hand side is Shen Xiangyan's perfume house specially prepared for making incense. Passing through the courtyard, you can see a small garden with a rockery pond. There are still a few koi in the pond, but now the water is frozen and can't be seen. But it is not difficult to imagine what it will be like when the lotus on the water is in full bloom in the warm spring season. After passing the small garden, the main courtyard where the two will live in the future will be the Begonia Courtyard. Because there is a crabapple tree in the courtyard that can barely be hugged by two grown men, it was named by the former owner of the courtyard. Shen Xiangyan thinks that this name is appropriate for the occasion. No change.
Shen Xiangyan led Xia Rong into the main room. The most eye-catching thing in the room was a large bed carved with red sandalwood. Xia Rong blushed when she saw that bed, for no other reason than that the bed was covered with brocade mattresses embroidered with red and gold thread peonies, and the hanging curtains were also decorated with red and gold flowers. Seeing that he was shy, Shen Xiangyan didn't say anything, "Rong'er, let's go back to the front hall, everyone in the house wants to salute you as a gentleman." Xia Rong blushed even more after hearing this.
The two returned to the front hall, and everyone saluted them. On the same day, I bought two families, one surnamed Feng and one surnamed Chen. The boys of the two families, Feng Qin and Chen Cai, were both thirteen and fourteen years old. The cook, Rong Shi, is a widow, and in addition to being good at cooking Suzhou dishes, she is also good at making all kinds of dim sum. Now Xia Rong is lucky.
Xia Rong rewarded each person with a half tael of silver at the suggestion of her husband, which was regarded as a meeting gift from the master. While touching his husband's little hand, Shen Xiangyan thought, he can deal with these human affairs outside, but in the future Xia Rong will definitely deal with the wives and ladies of these families in the town. With his little husband's simple nature, he has to think about it. Find a way. He raised his eyes and looked at He Xin and He Miao who were standing behind Xia Rong. It seemed that he was fine and could mention these two things.
What the two of them ate that night was the dishes made by Rong's, because it was the first time to cook for the master's family, it can be said that Rong's tried his best to satisfy the two masters. Eight dishes and one soup were cooked, and six of the eight on the table were cooked according to Xia Rong's taste. It seems that these servants in the family really know that if they hold the lord, they can hold him. Shen Xiangyan touched his nose, but that's good, they will serve Xia Rong more meticulously.
In the evening, Xia Rong was lying in the new quilt and saw that her husband went to bed after taking a bath, and she took the initiative to rub her. She got into the quilt and held his feet on her stomach to keep him warm.
The earth dragon was already burning in this room, it was really warm, but Xia Rong's feet were still so cold, Shen Xiangyan frowned subconsciously.
"Rong'er, I would like to invite Uncle Li and his family to visit our house in the future, and the female relatives will have to wrong you to entertain them."
"Ah! Rong'er has never done this before, and Rong'er is afraid that she can't do it well." Xia Rong immediately became nervous when she heard that he was asked to entertain guests.
Shen Xiangyan rubbed the head of the person in his arms, and said softly, "Aunt Li is a very easy-going person, and my sister-in-law would be nice too, don't worry, when the time comes, you just need to sit and chat with them and have some snacks. I will explain the rest to He Xin."
Xia Rong was relieved after hearing what Xianggong said, and said that she would fulfill the tasks assigned by Xianggong and entertain the guests well. After finishing speaking, I didn't act like a baby and asked my husband to tell him a bedtime story. This bedtime story kept appearing, but after telling the fairy tale for a period of time, the bedtime story in Shen Xiangyan's head was completely digested. Now he is talking about the storybooks that are widely sold in books in the town. Xia Rong lay in Shen Xiangyan's arms and listened to tonight's story without any sleepiness. will fall asleep.
"Why are you so energetic tonight?" Shen Xiangyan put down the book in his hand, and took Xia Rong into his arms.
Xia Rong buried her head in Xianggong's arms, hesitated for a while before whispering, "Master, when will Rong'er have a baby?"
"Ahem..." Shen Xiangyan was taken aback by Xia Rong's sudden question, and then asked calmly, "Why did you think about having a baby?"
Xia Rong thought about it, and finally said it, "He Miao said that if Rong'er has a baby, my husband will like Rong'er even more, and Rong'er wants my husband to like her."
Shen Xiangyan picked up Xia Rong, let him sit on his body, raised his chin so that he could look at him, "Rong'er, you are still young, you will have a baby when you grow up, but even if you don't have a baby Xianggong also likes you the most."
Hearing that there will be no baby yet, Xia Rong was a little disappointed, but Xianggong later said that he likes himself the most, Xia Rong smiled happily, "I also like Xianggong the most."
Shen Xiangyan, who finally got this matter out of the way, heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Apart from the age issue, he thought he had to find a reliable doctor to show Xia Rong. It's cold, so I have to let the doctor see how to take care of it.
The next day, Shen Xiangyan led Feng Qin and Chen Cai to Xiangzilai, and told Shen An to ask these two boys to help him, so that Shen An would not be as busy as he is now.
Shen An handed over the account book for this month to Shen Xiangyan, and said with some concern, "Master, there are already other shops in the market that smell like our perfume, and the perfume business in the past two days has not been as good as before. It's gone." Shen An was very worried that if this continued, Xiang Zilai would not have such an advantage as they do now.
Shen Xiangyan waved his hand, "Don't worry, I have counted this before. Tomorrow, the price will be reduced and it will no longer be limited. I will ask Feng Qin and the others to send the new perfume." To be honest, when the store opened on the first day He knew that pirated copies were impossible, but he had a lot of prescriptions in his hand, and there were some rare and difficult materials, but he was not afraid of other companies producing the same things. What he wants is just this time difference, so that everyone thinks of Xiangzilai first when they think of perfume. What he needs is to create the brand of Xiangzilai.
However, the really good recipes in his hand and the spices he needs are a bit difficult. When spring comes, he has to go to the mountains around Furong Town to look for them. There are many fragrances that only he knows.
Shen An was relieved when he heard the young master said that there was a way. Anyway, there were two boys watching in the store, and the two talked about some situations in the store. Since then, Shen An really admired his young master. , those business methods that he thought of at a young age make him, who has worked as a shopkeeper for several years, feel inferior.

On the other side of the Xia residence, Madam Xia listened to Nanny Yu's report, and finally asked again in disbelief, "The recently famous perfume you mentioned just now comes from the new shop opened by the Shen family kid. But really?"
"Really, really, that shop used to belong to the Shen family, but it was closed for more than a year, and it reopened recently. The people who sent it were afraid that the shop was resold, so they waited at the door of the shop for two days to see When the shopkeeper was called the young master of the Shen family, it was confirmed that he hadn't changed his house. Not only that, didn't the little girl who lived in the Shen family move into the yard all the time, and he moved to a new house yesterday, and the place he moved to was a big courtyard with four entrances Well, I asked someone to inquire about it, but the yard costs eight hundred taels of silver."
For the first time, Mrs. Xia felt that she had made a mistake. Although she didn't know how Shen Xiangyan suddenly became so lucky, she knew how good it was to let Xia marry him in the first place. It's a pity, it's believable, it's really cheap for Xia Rong.
Mrs. Xia rubbed her brows and said, "Don't tell Miss about this for now, she doesn't know how to make a fuss if she knows about her temper."
Nanny Yu knew about her young lady's temper, but she couldn't help but remind her, "I'm afraid the fire won't be covered with paper, madam should make a plan early."
"Let me figure out a way to hide it for a day." Mrs. Xia waved impatiently to stop Nanny Yu from continuing.
