After the old lady left happily, Shen Yuerong looked at the medicinal herbs piled aside and gave Qinghua another instruction.
"I asked someone to open a small house in the yard and set up a pharmacy. Please help me organize these herbs according to the grid."
"good."
Chen Yuerong thought of something else, "Qinghua, the three-bead lotus is the most important thing, you must take good care of it."
"Don't worry, Miss. I have already arranged it."
She nodded and fell asleep on the couch again.
It was not until the evening that Shen Yuerong opened her eyes and saw Fu Hengyu, who had not yet had time to retract his disgusted expression.
"Husband, why are you here?"
Shen Yuerong forced herself to sit up and looked at the sky around her which was already darkening.
"Eat with you."
Looking at the slightly cool food on the table, Shen Yuerong looked a little apologetic.
"My husband, if you want to have dinner with me in the future, you can just wake me up instead of waiting for me here."
Fu Hengyu had the food taken away and reheated, and there was some tenderness in his eyes as he looked at Shen Yuerong.
"What are you talking about? You're not feeling well right now, so you need to get more sleep. When I came back today, my mother told me that you bought a lot of medicinal herbs, but your legs hurt again?"
Shen Yuerong nodded, "It's been cloudy for a long time now, and it has rained for a few days. The cold wind has penetrated my body, and even my legs are a little painful."
"You have feeling in your legs?"
Shen Yuerong thought Fu Hengyu's question was a little strange, but she nodded.
"When you first came back, I told you that I was conscious."
Fu Hengyu didn't care about Shen Yuerong at all, so naturally he never took what she said to heart.
"Yes, it's my fault. I was so busy with other things after I came back that I forgot about you for a while."
Chen Yuerong looked at him and smiled helplessly, "My husband has just returned to the capital, and there are many things to do. You don't have to come to me every day. If you have time, you should go see Sister Du Wan first."
When she found out that the man in front of her was not her lover, she naturally didn't want to be entangled with him day and night.
"You think I'm getting in your way?"
She was silent for a moment, without saying anything, but asked Qinghua to take the account aside.
"Mother came today and told me a lot. I also assigned all the affairs of the mansion to her. From now on, I will just be my wife Ansheng in this mansion."
The principal wife naturally needs to be tolerant and accommodating.
The love of the past has long since disappeared, and the unforgettable memories have long since been buried in the dust.
"Do you think I'm suddenly so nice to you because of the money from the General's Mansion and the few shops you own?"
Shen Yuerong did not speak, but the facts were before her eyes, and the person in front of her looked a little aggrieved.
"It was you who said I treated you coldly before, it was you who felt there was no love between us anymore, it was you who said... that's why I wanted to treat you better, but now you think I treated you better just to get the power in your hands."
He stood up, his expression full of resentment and unwillingness, and his tone was somewhat aggrieved.
"I know you're sad in the mansion, so I wanted to favor you in every way, but now... I don't know what to do for a moment."
He pretended to be affectionate but was betrayed, but he didn't know that the person in front of him had already seen it clearly.
"I'm just... used to living alone, and I don't know how to face you for a moment. You... that's all, let's eat."
Shen Yuerong was not as unmoved as she appeared to be. After many years of separation, she met the person she loved in her youth. Even though there were many realities in front of her, she was always slightly moved by his tenderness.
I can't forget the promises we made to each other when we were young. Even if there is more evil now, it can't eliminate the love that has been growing slowly in my heart.
Fu Hengyu sighed, but in the end, the two of them finished the meal in silence.
He did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he sat opposite Shen Yuerong. Shen Yuerong read a book and he looked at her.
Until Qinghua brought the medicine.
"Miss, the evening medicine is ready."
Shen Yuerong nodded and took the sticky liquid that was full of the scent of herbs that night, which smelled a bit bitter.
"Is it a painkiller?"
She frowned and pinched the tip of her nose with her hand. Although she looked a little disgusted, she drank most of the wine in one gulp.
The bitter taste spread in her mouth, attacking her lips and teeth madly, so that her face was full of grievance, and even a few tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.
But the person in front of him still frowned.
"Have you...been taking these medicines all these years?"
Shen Yuerong shook her head, and it took a long time for her to react, "Sometimes I drink some when it hurts too much, but I'm used to it."
Everyone outside believes in fate, but she doesn't.
Everyone said that Shen Yuerong would never be able to stand up again, but she insisted on fighting for herself.
"Don't worry, I'm used to it."
This bitter taste, like all the hardships she had faced alone over the years, she had long been accustomed to being alone.
"Now that I'm back, you don't have to get used to it. I'll have someone prepare some candied fruit for you in the future. Or, if you have any sweets you like, I can buy them for you."
Shen Yuerong looked at him for a long time, then smiled self-deprecatingly, "It seems that you don't really understand me. I have never eaten sweets in these years, and I rarely buy candied fruits."
She is no longer the ignorant girl she was when she was young, so that she no longer likes sweets.
He hadn't thought of this, and his expression was a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect you wouldn't eat. In that case, then I..."
"You don't have to do anything. I've been living well without you these years."
Shen Yuerong pulled her coat closer, looked at him, and asked the question that she was extremely curious about.
"A few days ago, I counted my dowry and wanted to find the medical books my father left me, but I found that something was missing. I didn't know what it was, so I wanted to find the dowry list, but the housekeeper said he didn't have it, so I wanted to ask... do you know who has it?"
Fu Hengyu was a little confused. "How should I know? Aren't these things put away by the housekeeper in the mansion? If they are not in the housekeeper's hands, they may be with my mother. But why do you suddenly want to count the dowry? Are you really ready to divorce me?"
Shen Yuerong sighed, feeling that the person in front of her was a little paranoid.
"Didn't I tell you that I wanted to find some of my father's medical books?"
He looked at Shen Yuerong helplessly, and after hearing these words, his hanging heart finally settled down.
"Since you don't want to divorce, your dowry has long been included in the general's property. There is no need to divide it so clearly. If you can't find the medical books your father-in-law left you, then tell me what kind you want, and I will find some for you."
