C182 Like to Look Good

When the seedlings were planted, the rain that the villagers were most worried about seemed to understand the minds of the people. It only started to rain a few days after they had finished planting the seedlings.

Shen Jingli was half lying on the Arhat Bed in his room, happily watching the rain water non-stop outside his window. Snorting an unknown tune, he knocked on the headboard with his right hand, which caused a chilly wind to blow outside, but with the fire in the room and his body covered by a layer of blanket, he did not feel cold, but felt a little bored.

The wind outside was blowing strongly, and the two young bananas growing outside the window were blown left and right, making Shen Jingli a little worried that they would be broken by the wind. Just as he was about to call someone out to take a look, the window was slammed shut and then sealed tight.

"The wind outside is strong, it will blow and make you sick." Jin Yu turned back and tucked Shen Jingli in before explaining, "If Madam is sick, Master will definitely blame us for not taking good care of Madam."

Knowing that Jin Yu was doing this for his own good, Shen Jingli didn't want to make it difficult for them. She nodded, pointed at the few books on the table, and said: "Give me the book on the top shelf."

After knowing that he was pregnant, Mu Chen didn't allow him to go out as he pleased. Worried that he would be bored to stay at home, Mu Chen went to the Jinling City to buy some drawing books for him to read and pass the time.

After giving the book to Shen Jingli, Jin Yu returned to sitting beside Nian Hua's body and picked up the half-embroidered bag to continue embroidering.

He turned his head and looked at the money embroidered on Jin Yu's hands, and said enviously: "Big Sister Jin Yu is really skillful, look at how well the money is embroidered, the Lovers on it seem to be alive."

Jin Yu glared at him, and reached out her hand to poke his forehead, "Enough, stop blabbering, hurry up and embroider your handkerchief, if you don't embroider well, your monthly allowance for this month will be deducted."

When Nian Hua heard this, he became anxious and quickly pulled on Jin Yu's arm to curry favor with him. "Good sister, I know you are the kindest person in your heart, you can't bear for me to not have the money to buy the rouge that I was looking after next month. Good sister, please don't use these words to scare me."

Listening to his words, Jin Yu felt both angry and amused. She accidentally missed a needle and pricked her own finger, causing a slight prick of pain. A drop of blood dripped out.

Realizing that he had made a mistake, he lowered his head in a pitiful manner, like a puppy that had been wronged.

"Sister Jin Yu, sorry!" He apologized in a low voice as he held his hands together uneasily, afraid that Jin Yu would be angry at him.

Jin Yu was not angry at all, but seeing that he, who always acted like a little hot pepper, was actually a little interesting now, she pretended to be angry and ignored him.

Hearing Jin Yu's snort, Shen Jingli secretly turned his head, so as to not let Nian Hua see her smile, he knew that she was just teasing. He could not help but laugh, Jin Yu usually looked to be very honest, always taking care of his young age, but he never thought that he would also have such a sly time.

"Sister Jin Yu …" Nian Hua cautiously shouted.

Jin Yu really couldn't hold back and laughed out loud. When she heard her laugh, she knew that she was just playing around with him.

Jin Yu quickly dodged to the side to not let him touch her, and begged for forgiveness: "Good little brother, big sister was wrong, big sister should not have teased you, don't be angry. Madam is watching. Don't let Madam down her sleeve. "

Nian Hua suddenly remembered that Shen Jingli was just beside them, and immediately stopped and returned to his seat. He looked at Jin Yu, blushing in embarrassment, and seemed to be reprimanding her.

Jin Yu awkwardly touched her nose, didn't she accidentally forget about it?

Shen Jingli continued to look at the drawing book in his hands, as if he was not paying attention to the matters that were being played around with. The two of them looked at each other in silence, then continued with their needlework.

When Mu Chen returned, he had just slept and Jin Yu was tucking him in. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he hurriedly turned around and bowed respectfully, "Greetings, old master."

Afraid of disturbing Shen Jingli, he waved his hand, signalling them to get down, while he sat on the side of the bed, watching his sleeping appearance, and extended his hand out to touch his face. But when he thought about how he had just come back from outside, his hand was still cold, so he took it back, and gently looked at him for a while.

Shen Jingli's sleep was not steady at all.

Seeing him like that, Mu Chen raised his eyebrows, first changing his clothes, then warming his hands beside the charcoal brazier. Then, he returned to the bedside and gently caressed him, coaxing him to sleep.

Sensing the familiar aura, Shen Jingli no longer fumbled around uneasily. Instead, he cupped his hands towards Mu Chen's body and pulled his hands, sticking them on his own face and muttered, "Fourteen."

The space between his eyebrows relaxed, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly. However, he still firmly grabbed onto Mu Chen's hand.

Seeing him sleep comfortably like this, Mu Chen let him do as he pleased. After settling himself down, Mu Chen's free hand reached to his side and took the pregnant women's scriptures from him, continuing to look at them.

"..."

The moment Shen Jingli woke up, he found himself tightly hugging onto Mu Chen's right hand while Mu Chen sat on the side of the bed, holding onto a book and reading.

"When did you return?" Shen Jingli let go of his hand and sat up. Mu Chen hurriedly put down the book, took a soft pillow and placed it on his back, as he replied: "I've been back a while."

His tone was very flat, and did not mention why he was hugging his arm, but considerately rubbed Shen Jingli's waist. After he felt more comfortable, he started to pinch his sore arm, one after another.

As Shen Jingli watched his movements, he remembered that when she woke up, she was holding his arm, so he naturally pulled his arm and carefully massaged it for him.

"Why are you so stupid? "Even if your hand is sore, you still won't pull it out." He chattered on and on, but he felt very warm inside.

"You sleep very well." He didn't want to wake him up. Seeing his cautious look, Mu Chen couldn't help but ask, "Did the child mess with you today?"

"What are you doing? He's just a lazy pig who eats and sleeps all day. " After saying that, Shen Jingli couldn't help but laugh out loud. Ever since he knew that he was pregnant, the two things he did the most was to eat and sleep.

"It's good as long as there's no trouble." Mu Chen didn't really care about Shen Jingli's words. Before Xun Er was born, wasn't he also rather obedient? After he was born, he had already become a little overlord. There was nothing to worry about in this uncertain situation.

"Are you thirsty? Would you like some water? " Feeling that his arm was a lot more comfortable, Mu Chen withdrew his hand and went to the door to change a pot of hot water for Jin Yu.

Shen Jingli picked up the book he had just read and glanced at it, seeing that he was walking over, he moved closer to the door, extending his hand to pat the place beside him, signalling him to sit next to him.

The moment Mu Chen sat down on the bed, Shen Jingli immediately leaned over and rested his head on his shoulder. Seeing him like this, Mu Chen thought he hadn't slept enough and said: "Did you not sleep enough? Do you want to sleep a little longer? "

Shen Jingli shook his head, "I'm not tired, I just want to lean on you for a while."

"Alright." Mu Chen took a comb and combed his hair back before tying it up. Then, he let Yue Yang lean on his shoulder and picked up the book to look at for him again.

"Jinglee, do you feel nauseous?" Mu Chen looked at his pregnancy cycle, and asked Shen Jingli about it like a doctor making a diagnosis.

"No, what's wrong?"

"I'm fine." Shen Jingli tilted his head and looked at him. His face was also very beautiful, although his skin was not very white, but it was very fine and delicate, with long and perky eyelashes. In the blink of an eye, he looked like a dancing star, causing girls to be jealous.

His gaze was too focused, Mu Chen could not help but raise his head, "What's wrong?"

"I'm thinking, why are you so good-looking?"

His serious reply caused Mu Chen to be stunned for a moment. He then laughed out loud and tapped the center of his brows, "Because you like good-looking people."

"That's true. If you're not good-looking, I don't want you anymore." Shen Jingli continued, only to see Mu Chen's face darken, and he laughed: "Are you angry?"

Seeing him smile so happily, Mu Chen knew that he was teasing him on purpose. Mu Chen turned his head and kissed his forehead, "You're not allowed to say such words in the future, I don't like it."

"Alright." Shen Jingli replied happily, then suddenly said, "Fourteenth, do you like boys or girls?"

"What about you?" Instead of answering, he asked a question.

"I like you."

When he flipped through the books, he did not control his strength well and tore off more than half of the pages. Mu Chen felt a headache as he looked at the torn pages, and turned to see Shen Jingli laughing secretly, a little pleased with himself.

He stretched out his hand, just as he was about to teach him a lesson, he heard the sound of birds flapping their wings. Mu Chen put down the book and opened the window.

"A letter?" Shen Jingli saw a small wooden cylinder tied to the pigeon's leg, and looked up at Mu Chen.

Mu Chen took down the small wooden cylinder and took out the slip of paper inside. It was sent by the King Jing, and they said that there was a problem with the salt farm in the south and wanted Mu Chen to go over and investigate.

"What happened?" Seeing Mu Chen's change in expression, Shen Jingli asked worriedly.

Mu Chen crushed the creed into a ball and burned it in a charcoal brazier before speaking up: "There's a problem at the salt field in the south, Your Highness wants me to go investigate."

In other words, he had to travel far away again. Shen Jingli's eyes turned serious as he lowered his head and caressed his stomach. No one knew what he was thinking about.1

Seeing him in such a state, Mu Chen suddenly felt reluctant to leave, and wanted to say something to comfort him. However, Shen Jingli raised his head, and asked, "When are you leaving?"

"Jinglee, I …"

"I know." Shen Jingli cut him off, "Finish everything early and come back early. I will take good care of myself."

It's just a business trip. I'll be back soon.

Mu Chen looked at him, and for a moment, he did not know what to say, so he could only tightly hold onto his hand.
