Sick Man Turns Out to be a General

Although he didn't really like Ceng Wan'er, he wouldn't go against his parents' wishes and divorce Ceng Wan'er. Therefore, as long as Ceng Wan'er was honest and honest, and didn't commit any grave mistakes, she would be able to hold the position of the Marquis of Yuanying's wife.    

"There's someone outside, big brother?" This was the best reason he could think of, but when he thought about it again, he felt that it was impossible. Even if Mu Yu really had people outside, with his personality, he wouldn't leave Ceng Wan'er for no reason.    

From his tone, Mu Chen knew that he was wrong. He replied, "Don't think too much, Big Brother isn't that kind of person."    

"Then why did they leave?" Are you kidding me? This ancient marriage law was not child's play.    

Shen Jingli snorted in disdain. He did not like Ceng Wan'er, who was a woman, and was happy to see Mu Yu divorce her. However, divorce was not so simple.    

"Big bro knows about your matters, so he's very angry, and said that he's going to divorce Ceng Wan'er." Mu Chen said, "But after she entered the house of the Marquis, she did not do anything inappropriate, so I was afraid that giving up her wife would affect her future marriage, so we decided to negotiate and leave her."    

"My business?" Shen Jingli was very suspicious, why would Mu Yu and Ceng Wan'er be related to him?    

The water in the bath gradually became cold, so Shen Jingli got up, used a towel to wipe his body, put it on, and then walked out.    

Seeing that he had finished washing up, Mu Chen sent someone else in to clean the bathtub, and also sent someone to instruct the kitchen to prepare food.    

Shen Jingli sat down beside Mu Chen and asked anxiously, "What happened? How did I become the fuse between them? "    

He was living well in the Mu Family Village, and was immediately affected by other people's flames of war the moment he returned.    

"Ceng Wan'er told people to buy what you gave me and to let Big Bro know." Mu Chen played it down.    

This was a naked humiliation, it would be weird if Mu Yu wasn't angry. Knowing that his big brother was still concerned about their relationship as brothers, Mu Chen actually felt rather gratified in his heart. As for what had happened that year, he no longer felt much about it, but felt that he had let down the original Shen Jingli a little.    

"Is he angry?"    

Seeing Mu Chen nod his head, Shen Jingli thought in his heart, that's true, with Mu Yu's personality, it would be strange if he did not lose out.    

The servant quickly brought out the water in the bath barrel. A few maidservant s then brought some water to clean the barrel before the kitchen delivered the food.    

Shen Jingli was initially not hungry, but when he saw the tasteless dishes placed on the table, he immediately felt his stomach growl. He ordered Mu Chen to get him a bowl of chicken soup, and then, he picked up the dishes and started to eat the chicken soup.    

The soup was stewed together with old hens, medlar, red dates and other medicinal ingredients. After stewing for several hours, the soup was scooped up and the oil was removed from the soup before being served to Shen Jingli to drink.    

Shen Jingli scalded the stir-fried vegetables into chicken soup, then chewed them, feeling that the taste was better.    

After drinking half a bowl of chicken soup, Shen Jingli scooped up another bowl of rice and started to eat with relish. He had been away from the capital for a long time, he really missed the food in the house.    

"Do you want more food?" Seeing him eating happily, Mu Chen was also happy in his heart. On the journey back to the capital, Shen Jingli had been extremely happy, and even vomited a lot if he could not eat it, he was simply worried to death. Now that he could eat it, and there was no nausea, it was natural that he would wish for a bowl of rice to be put into his stomach.    

"Give me another half a bowl." Shen Jingli was indeed hungry. After changing into the carriage, his body had not been in a good condition, he did not want to eat anything, and he could not eat much.    

Mu Chen scooped half a bowl of rice for him and added a few pieces of chicken into his bowl, "Eat more, and don't starve yourself."    

"En, if you can't eat too much, you will accumulate. It will be difficult." Shen Jingli picked up two more pieces of tofu, and after eating about 80% of his fill, he put down the bowl and said, "Don't raise me like a pig, you can't sell me if you're fat."    

Mu Chen heard him joking around leisurely and knew that he was in better condition. He said to him, "The weather today is not bad, do you want to go out and take a bath in the sun?"    

Shen Jingli looked outside. The sun was still quite good and it wasn't very hot, so he nodded his head. Then he said, "Why don't you make the kitchen heat up some more water for me to wash my hair?"    

On the way back to the capital, it wasn't very convenient to stay at the inn. He hadn't washed his hair for quite a few days.    

Thinking about it this way, Shen Jingli felt regret. Why didn't he wash his hair when he was bathing just now? However, he felt extremely comfortable and didn't even want to lift his hands.    

Mu Chen saw him reaching out his hand, looking like he wanted to scratch his head but was a little disgusted with him, so he smiled and nodded: "Ok, I will ask the servants to prepare."    

After getting someone to bring a chair to the courtyard, Mu Chen accompanied Shen Jingli and walked two rounds to eat and drink. Only when he sat down did he say that he wanted to go to the study to take care of some matters.    

The reclining chair was placed under a big tree in the courtyard. The dense leaves swayed in the wind, and the occasional sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves. Not only was it not hot during the summer, it was also cool.    

Shen Jingli lied on the reclining chair, feeling the cool breeze, and unknowingly grew sleepy.    

The kitchen had already boiled water, so someone had to bring it over. Coincidentally, Mu Chen came out of the study room with a drowsy feeling, yet somehow, he woke up with a start.    

Seeing him suddenly sit up, Mu Chen thought he was frightened and immediately ran over, "What's wrong? Are you scared? "    

"I'm fine." Actually, he didn't know what was going on either. It was just that after a sudden quiver, he was completely awake.    

Seeing that he did not look like he was being forced, Mu Chen did not ask anymore questions. Instead, he took out a copper basin and mixed it with warm water, letting Shen Jingli lie down and prepare to wash his hair.    

"Just lie there. I'll lower the chair a bit." Mu Chen lowered the chair and pressed Shen Jingli down.    

The man stretched out his hand to pick it up and rubbed it awkwardly. Occasionally, his scalp would hurt and he would grumble a few times. The man became more cautious and looked extremely gentle, but unfortunately, even he did not notice that the young man was not there …    

Nanny Jin sat in front of the window, doing needlework while stealthily taking note of everything. She was extremely interested in everything.    

Shen Jingli was lying on the chair, feeling the hot air on his scalp, and was about to fall asleep when he suddenly heard a candid voice coming from the door. He turned his head, and saw Zhao Wenrui striding in with a nervous servant following him.    

"Jinglee, I heard you are pregnant? Is that true? " Zhao Wenrui shouted loudly, sounding very happy.    

Mu Chen scooped water and helped Shen Jingli wash his hair, then used a towel to help him wipe his hair. He was not the least bit interested in Zhao Wenrui's arrival.    

Shen Jingli let Mu Chen help him up, then sat on the chair and looked at Zhao Wenrui … A bulging stomach, um... It was a little strange.    

Zhao Wenrui was very muscular, a centimeter or two taller than Xu Yanlin. He had very handsome facial features and was a sunny guy, but this guy had a big belly, walking quickly towards him … … Mm, it really is strange.    

Shen Jingli couldn't explain the feeling in his heart, it was just that he felt that this stomach of his didn't fit very well with Zhao Wenrui's.    

"You're washing your hair …" Zhao Wenrui was shocked, especially when he saw Mu Chen who was helping Shen Jingli wipe his hair, he was even more shocked. He understood Mu Shisi's personality, and now that he had carefully wiped Shen Jingli's hair, he almost thought that he was mistaken.    

"Mmm, the weather is pretty good. If I dry it off later, it probably won't catch a cold." Shen Jingli explained, patting the seat beside him, and then letting him sit.    

"Didn't Zhongping just go back? Why are you here?"    

"He slept." Zhao Wenrui replied casually, his eyes was fixated on Shen Jingli's stomach, after looking at it carefully, and seeing that his stomach was slightly bulging, he became even happier, "Are you really pregnant?"    

"You're pregnant? What are you so happy for? It's not like you're pregnant with your child." Looking at his foolish and ignorant face, he might misunderstand that he was carrying his own child.    

Two twins giving birth? Shen Jingli couldn't help but laugh out loud after imagining the situation of the two of them getting married and then getting pregnant at the same time.    

"It's not my child, but he's my son's daughter-in-law." Zhao Wenrui rubbed his own stomach, then patted Shen Jingli's stomach, "We had previously agreed that we would become relatives, you can't go back on your words."    

Who told you this, big brother? You talk to yourself, have you considered my feelings?    

"The child's problem will be resolved by the child himself." Never mind, he wanted to be free to fall in love.    

"I want your child to become my Daughter-in-law, as ordered by my parents." Zhao Wenrui insisted.    

"What if mine is my son?"    

"Impossible, the one in your stomach must be my Daughter-in-law." Zhao Wenrui said resolutely.    

Shen Jingli felt that he was staring at the burning gaze on his stomach, and did not bother to argue with him. He liked to think that way, so what?    

"You've already been here for more than seven months, how can your family be at ease letting you go out?" If it was anyone else in his residence, they would definitely keep a close eye on him. They might not even let him leave from their doors.    

"I'm fine, I'm fine." Zhao Wenrui said indifferently, he did not mention the reactions of the Xu and Zhao Families.    

Upon hearing his words, the servant by his side felt so anxious that he was about to cry, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only look at Zhao Wenrui with reddened eyes.    

Zhao Wenrui did not care about him. When Xu Yanlin went to the Golden Ridge, he was at home with his parents and was not going anywhere, so he was almost suffocating and was sick. When Xu Yanlin finally came back, he used the excuse of wanting to go and fetch his and took the opportunity to return to his own residence.
