After marrying a rough man, I played mahjong to support Shoufu

Chapter 237 Spending Leisurely Time Together

The steaming hot pot is smoky and has a slight meaty aroma.

Shen Xian rubbed his hands in embarrassment, "Master Meng, have you seen it?"

Meng Jin stroked his beard with a smile and said: "You guys, if you invite me to dinner and bring friends, you are either asking for something, or asking for something."

"Hehe, since you've seen it, we won't hide it from you." Shen Xian gave Liu Qing a wink while speaking.

Seeing this, Liu Qing quickly stood up, cupped her hands and said, "Student Liu Qing, I have met Mr. Meng."

"Student." Meng Jin nodded, "Understood."

With just one title, Meng Jin understood what was going on. He thought for a while and said, "Nowadays, the imperial court is fighting against different parties, and the scientific examination is not fair. I can understand that you are looking for ways, but you must have real knowledge."

As soon as the words fell, Liu Qing straightened her expression, and said in a deep voice: "Master Meng, if the students take part in the scientific examination this time without solid evidence, the adults can let the students lose their reputation, and there will be no complaints."

"Very good, I have some friendship with Mr. Wang from the Examination Institute, and I will only help you to share." Meng Jin nodded in satisfaction, looking at his energy, but there is some ink in his stomach.

"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness, Liu Qing will never forget it."

Meng Jin looked at Shen Xian and Zhao Shun, and said slowly: "The meal has been eaten, and the affairs have been settled. I have a few words to remind you."

Both Zhao Shun and Shen Xian showed a respectful attitude, "Master Meng, please speak."

Meng Jin looked at Shen Xian and said: "I heard your mother say that your father Shen Su is a thousand household under General Xiao, right or wrong."

"Yes." Shen Xian was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Meng Jin to mention this suddenly.

"You have just arrived in the capital, and there are some things you may not know. I want to explain to you, so that you can prepare for the future."

Meng Jin briefly analyzed the situation in the capital to Zhao Shun, and emphasized Shen Su's identity and position.

Only then did Shen Xian and Zhao Shun realize that Shen Su's identity would be an obstacle to their trust in Yu Wenji.

Meng Jin glanced at Shen Xian and Zhao Shun's faces, and then said: "It seems that you are already aware of the seriousness of the problem, so you should think about it yourself."

"Thank you for your guidance, my lord." Shen Xian and Zhao Shun got up together to express their thanks.

"Okay, it's getting late, and I'm going back too."

Meng Jin stood up, Shen Xian and others hurriedly sent him out of the door.

After seeing off Gu Hanlin, Yan Chongluan also bid farewell.

"Brother Zhao, Mrs. Sister-in-law, my younger brother has been missing for a few days. I think Yan's Firm must have squeezed a lot of things and left them alone."

Shen Xian smiled and narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, "Mr. Yan must be careful in the future, don't get into someone else's boat."

Yan Chongluan laughed and didn't feel embarrassed, "If I'm missing, please come and rescue me again, don't make me wait too long this time."

"It's just you who are poor-mouthed, so go."

"Brother Yan, go slowly."

After Yan Chongluan also left, Liu Qing cupped her hands, "Now the biggest stumbling block is gone, my little brother has to continue studying."

Liu Qing is in a good mood today, the things that have been on her mind have finally come to the ground, and she walks with wind.

Just now they were pushing a cup to change a cup, now everyone went to work on their own.

Shen Xian glanced at Zhao Shun helplessly, "You should read the book too, it's only a few days before you can take the exam."

Zhao Shun gently held Shen Xian's hand, the cold winter wind made her hand cold, and Zhao Shun warmed her fingertips with a breath of hot air.

"Miss, you have been busy for several days, and we haven't enjoyed a quiet time of our own."

After hearing what he said, Shen Xian felt like she was grinding on the ground with her toes.

"But won't this affect your reading?"

Zhao Shun smiled deeply, took Shen Xian's hand and walked towards the back house, and said as he walked: "As for books, there are many views, only fast and slow."

When they arrived at the back house, Shen Xian was pressed on the chair by Zhao Shun and sat obediently, but Zhao Shun came to the woodshed mysteriously,

Chopping the firewood in one go, Zhao Shun sawed the split wood into the same length, then took a hammer and nails, and nailed them 'duo duo duo'.

Ergou passing by saw this scene and ran over quickly.

"Hey, master, just let me know if there is anything you need, how can you still do the work yourself, isn't this about slapping us servants in the face?"

Since Ergou came to the Zhao Mansion, he has been diligent in doing things and won a lot of praise from the housekeeper. Zhao Shun also has a good impression of him.

Zhao Shun stepped on the wood, sawing off the excess with a saw, and said, "Some things are only interesting if you make them yourself, and you will feel happy when you share them with your wife."

At this point, Ergou understood that the master was making things for his wife, and he was meddling in his own business.

"So that's the case, then remember to call me if you have anything to do."

"Well, go get busy."

Zhao Shun nailed the sawn wood together and made it into a square shape, like the frame of a table.

It's just that this table looks a little shorter than other tables, and there are a few more supports in the middle.

After finishing the details, Zhao Shun nailed a few nails on the supporting points of the wooden frame, inserted a piece of iron sheet, and then added burning charcoal inside.

Moving the boxy frame back to the room, under Shen Xian's curious eyes, Zhao Shun put a marble slab on the frame, then covered it with a quilt and it turned into a hot kotatsu.

Shen Xian's eyes lit up, she had only seen an electrified kotatsu in her previous life, and this was the first time she had seen this kind of kotatsu.

After laying the groundwork, Zhao Shun beckoned, "My lady, come and try."

Shen Xian walked to the edge of the kotatsu with small steps, took off his shoes and socks, and then entered the kotatsu with his legs curled up.

"Is it warm?"

"Warm!" Little stars appeared in Shen Xian's eyes, and he asked happily: "Who did you learn from?"

Zhao Shun sat in the kotatsu and smiled gently, "When I was young, I worked as a carpenter's helper for food."

Seeing Zhao Shun talking about his childhood, Shen Xian quickly covered his mouth.

"Forget it, let's not talk about that time."

Shen Xian didn't like Zhao Shun's talk about his childhood the most, and he always felt sad when he heard it, and all kinds of things in the past were enough to bring back bad memories.

Zhao Shun grabbed Shen Xian's hand and pressed it to his face, smiling gently.

"Actually, my past memories are not bad. If it weren't for this experience, I wouldn't be able to learn these things, and I wouldn't be able to meet you, my lady."

"You, you are more and more able to speak now, and you are no longer the stupid big man you used to be."

Stepping lightly outside the door, Yuechan came with a fruit plate.

Seasonal sugar tangerines, a few white and fat peanuts, and a few open chestnuts are warmed on the kotatsu.

Put aside these foods, delicious but not too cold, the days seem to slow down, quiet and comfortable.
