Chapter 215: Work hard to add more food

Xiao Ning took out the drawings from his arms.

Looking at the intricate yet not bulky hairpin pattern on it, Old Wu murmured in amazement, "How beautiful..."

The shopkeeper also felt itchy.

But this was a gift from General Xiao to the princess. She's a legitimate royal relative, so she definitely wouldn't agree to him making the same style and selling it...

I didn't expect that such a great general would be such a romantic man.

Seeing that Old Wu was fascinated, Xiao Ning couldn't help but ask, "Can you do it?"

Old Wu came back to his senses and nodded, "I can do it."

Xiao Ning curled his lips and said, "That's good. How long will it take?"

Old Wu said, "One day is enough."

The shopkeeper then said, "Please leave your address and I will have someone deliver it to you when the time comes."

Lin Sanniang smiled and said, "Just send it to me."

The shopkeeper agreed repeatedly.

After leaving the shop and heading back, Lin Sanniang sighed, "The Marquis treats Her Royal Highness the Princess very well."

Xiao Ning whispered, "I haven't treated her well at all. I always make her sad because of me."

When Lin Sanniang heard this, she smiled softly.

How could a man like the Marquis treat the princess badly?

Especially since she is the Marquis' sweetheart.

I just love you too much.

When you love someone, you always worry that you are not doing well enough.

Whether you can make the other person happy.

She had met Her Royal Highness the Princess, and when Her Royal Highness looked at the Marquis, her eyes were obviously more infatuated.

His Highness loves me more than the Marquis.

That's why he was heartbroken because of her.

Such a mutual affection is really wonderful...

She would never love anyone like this again in her life.

The only person who loved her was killed by her own hands.

When he returned to the mansion, he saw Shen Zhiyi standing at the door.

When Lin Sanniang saw him, she smiled and saluted: "General Shen."

Lin Sanniang had a pretty good impression of Shen Zhiyi. Not only was he handsome, but he was also kind, smart, and tactful.

Shen Zhiyi smiled and bowed at her, "Miss Lin."

Xiao Ning frowned when he saw him, "What's wrong?"

Shen Zhiyi pretended not to notice her frown, "All matters in the city have been arranged. Is it time to submit a memorial to the court next?"

It's time to submit a memorial to the court.

But her hairpin is not yet finished.

However, since Mr. Shen is here, it’s not a bad idea to let him write the memorial first.

Xiao Ning coughed lightly and said, "Since you're here, let's discuss it together."

The two of them sat openly in the study in front of the rebel leader.

As usual, after the discussion, Shen Zhiyi organized the words and Xiao Ning picked up the pen to write the memorial.

After writing, she casually put the things on the desk.

Seeing that Shen Zhiyi was still not leaving, Xiao Ning asked, "Are you planning to stay here for lunch?"

Shen Zhiyi said: "That's not a bad idea."

Xiao Ning: “…”

Shen Zhiyi picked up the teacup on the table, lowered his eyes and sipped it gently, with a calm and steady manner.

Damn, this guy is getting more and more shameless.

Shen Zhiyi put down the teacup, and seeing Xiao Ning still looking at him, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly.

"You don't understand elegant language, how can you write to the princess?"

Xiao Ning was speechless: "I don't understand elegant language, not that I can't write."

Shen Zhiyi: “…then how much should I write.”

Xiao Ning: "I can write as much as I want, it's not for you to see."

Shen Zhiyi: "...Can you please stop arguing with me all the time?"

Xiao Ning: "Weren't you the one who started the fight first?"

Shen Zhiyi: “…”

When did he start looking for trouble...

He was just curious and asked her a few questions...

Shen Zhiyi was silent for a moment, then asked Xiao Ning: "Do you want me to teach you elegant language?"

Xiao Ning refused: "I look very free, don't I?"

Shen Zhiyi: “Aren’t you busy recently?”

Xiao Ning: "Do you really have to tell me that I don't want to be with you?"

Shen Zhiyi's heart shrank, and it felt painful.

He lowered his eyes and stood up, bowed to Xiao Ning and said: "Shen suddenly remembered that he has something else to do, so goodbye."

After saying that, he hurried out of the study.

When I met Lin Sanniang outside, she said, "General Shen, would you like to stay and have lunch with us?"

Shen Zhiyi bowed to Lin Sanniang and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Lin. I have something else to do, so I won't bother you any more."

After Shen Zhiyi left, Lin Sanniang brought in some tea and snacks.

"What did the Marquis say to Shen Jianjun? I saw that he looked a little strange."

Xiao Ning was surprised. She didn't say anything unpleasant, so why did her face look bad?

What a delicate flower.

I can't stand such words.

After Lin Sanniang left, she spread out paper and ground ink and began to write a letter to the princess.

Start writing from the time when the last letter was sent.

Write down all the interesting things along the way on paper.

Although he doesn't mention love in every sentence, every sentence is full of affection.

Naturally, she also told Shang Xi about her encounter with Lin Sanniang in Jinzhou.

"Princess, could you please go to the Marquis' Mansion and ask Yuzhu if Si Niang has returned to the capital?"

At the end of the letter, she wrote: "I hope you will not worry too much and work hard to eat more."

Looking at the letter that was almost ten pages long, Xiao Ning felt a lump in his throat.

Finally, he lowered his eyes and put the letter into the envelope.

On the surface of the envelope, write the four words "Dear Princess".

Her fingers lightly touched the word "Princess" on the cover, and her heart felt sad and melancholy.

She doesn't like the feeling of being controlled by emotions.

But she had long lost control of her heart.

Xiao Ning reached into his arms and took out the letters whose covers were blurred due to rubbing, and opened them to read.

These were her only connections with him.

Xiao Ning stroked the handwriting on the letter and sighed softly, "Shang Xi, I miss you so much."

…

The next day, when the things were delivered, Shen Zhiyi also came over and brought the memorial she had prepared for Xiao Ning to review.

He looked at the intricate and exquisite hairpin, his Adam's apple rolled twice, and he couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.

"Is this for the princess?"

Seeing the hairpin that was even more beautiful than she had imagined, Xiao Ning replied in a rare friendly tone, "Yes, she is my wife after all. A young lady likes jewelry..."

Then he called Lin Sanniang to come and see.

I asked nervously, "Do you think it looks good? Will the princess like it?"

Lin Sanniang smiled and replied, "It's very beautiful. Your Highness will definitely like it."

Hearing this, Xiao Ning raised his lips and smiled.

Then he looked at Shen Zhiyi again. This man was one of the most noble young men in Shengjing City, so he must have good taste.

So, she asked, "What does Supervisor Shen think?"

Shen Zhiyi looked at the hairpin and said lightly: “It’s just okay.”

Xiao Ning: “…”

She painted for a long time.

It’s certainly not gorgeous, but it’s exquisite.

Even if it was placed in a jewelry store in Shengjing City, it wouldn't be considered shabby...

But these are all her own thoughts...

Seeing that she was really hesitant, Lin Sanniang glanced at Shen Zhiyi, then turned back to Xiao Ning and said, "Don't think too much, Marquis. General Shen doesn't understand women. Sanniang just thinks this is very beautiful. Many unique pieces in Shengjing City's jewelry shops may not be comparable to yours, and..."

"You drew this yourself, Lord, and hired a craftsman to create it. Your thoughtfulness is truly precious."

"I think it will look very beautiful on Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Xiao Ning raised the hairpin and imagined how Shang Xi would look wearing it, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up.

It is very beautiful.

It’s a pity that I can’t see it with my own eyes.
