Chapter 211 Drunk
The next day, it was the day for Jiang's monthly account check.
Jiang Shu returned to the Jiang family. Jiang's father and mother first asked about her recent situation, and only let her go to the hall to check the accounts after confirming that she was not unwell.
The end of the year is approaching, and each shop has not only done the monthly accounts, but also counted the annual accounts, as well as the year-end bonuses for all employees, so today's accounting took a little longer.
"Princess, the prince is here." Tan Yu reported in a low voice.
Jiang Shu heard it and asked, it was already noon. After
sitting for a long time, Jiang Shu was a little tired, so he said: "Everyone take a break first, and discuss the rest of the matters after lunch."
"Yes, princess." The shopkeepers bowed and responded, and stood up to send Jiang Shu out of the hall.
Yu Zheng was waiting for Jiang Shu in the corridor. When he saw Jiang Shu coming out, he hurried over to greet her.
The shopkeepers who followed out saw Yu Zheng and knelt down to pay their respects.
"I have seen the prince."
This was the first time they had seen Yu Zheng, and they were so close to him.
Yu Zheng was wearing a stone-blue fur coat, standing tall and graceful beside Jiang Shu, with a solemn and dignified face, and he was intimidating without even getting angry.
At a glance, everyone was frightened by Yu Zheng's stern and noble aura, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at him and offend him again.
"Get up."
Leaving this sentence, Yu Zheng took Jiang Shu and walked slowly to the flower hall.
Although the shopkeepers of Jiang's family had dinner at the Jiang family, no one dared to eat with Yu Zheng, and they were arranged in the side hall.
Jiang Ning was not there, and there were only Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, Yu Zheng, and Jiang Shu in the flower hall.
As the New Year was approaching, Jiang's father and mother asked about their plans for the New Year.
Yu Zheng said, "On New Year's Eve, we have to go to the palace for the reunion banquet. On the first day of the New Year, we have to go to the palace to pay respects and worship our ancestors."
"That's as it should be. Can you come back on the second day?" Jiang's father asked.
Yu Zheng nodded, "Yes."
Jiang's father and mother were relieved and smiled, "The royal family has many rules and etiquette, and we don't need to worry about them. You just need to do your own things. Just come back on the second day of the New Year."
While the four of them were talking, the dishes were placed on the table.
Jiang Shu was pregnant, so Yu Zheng didn't need to worry about her anymore. Jiang's father asked someone to bring osmanthus wine, and he and Yu Zheng drank it happily.
Yu Zheng rarely drinks alcohol on weekdays, and his alcohol tolerance is not high. After two pots of osmanthus wine, he was half drunk.
Jiang Shu still had important matters to discuss with the shopkeepers, so he asked Zhuiyun and Zhufeng to help Yu Zheng go to Shutong Courtyard to rest.
This was not the first time that Yu Zheng set foot in Shutong Courtyard, but it was the first time that Yu Zheng slept on Jiang Shu's bed.
Compared with the wedding bed of the two in the palace, this bed was much smaller. Although the bedding was newly changed, when Yu Zheng lay on it, he seemed to still smell Jiang Shu's scent.
Yu Zheng hugged the brocade quilt used by Jiang Shu, looked at the pink and purple bed curtains, and a wonderful feeling arose in his heart.
Although he was a little drunk, Yu Zheng was not sleepy. He lay there for a long time but still had no sleepiness. He just felt a little headache.
When Jiang Shu came to find him after he was done, the kitchen just brought sobering soup.
"Husband?" Jiang Shu called tentatively.
Yu Zheng, who had closed his eyes to rest, opened them, looked at Jiang Shu, frowned and said, "Headache."
Unlike his usual cold and steady voice, Yu Zheng's voice was slightly hoarse and nasal, like whispering coquettishly.
Jiang Shu was a little surprised, then a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he coaxed softly: "Then get up quickly and drink the sobering soup, and the pain will go away after drinking it."
Yu Zheng sat up obediently. Jiang Shu took the soup bowl from the maid, blew it warm, and fed Yu Zheng to drink.
"It still hurts." Yu Zheng lay back down, his brows tightened more and more, and he looked very uncomfortable.
Jiang Shu waved away the maid, sat down beside the bed, and said softly: "I'll massage my husband."
"Okay." Yu Zheng happily agreed, moved his head to Jiang Shu's legs, and his dark eyes were slightly closed.
Ten slender fingers gently stroked Yu Zheng's forehead, pressing gently from the center of the eyebrows to the back of the ears on both sides.
After repeating this several times, Yu Zheng finally felt a little relieved, and his frown slowly relaxed.
"Shu'er's hands are really amazing. It doesn't hurt after you rub it." Yu Zheng arched his back, wrapped his arms around Jiang Shu's slender waist, and rubbed his handsome face against Jiang Shu's waist and abdomen.
A family of three, so nice.
Unexpectedly, Yu Zheng would do this. Jiang Shu was stunned for a moment and chuckled, "It should be the sobering soup that worked."
"No matter what, Shu'er rubbed it well." Yu Zheng was stubborn. I have
known Yu Zheng for so long, but this is the first time I have seen him show a slightly childish side, with a little grievance and a bit of nagging, which makes people's hearts melt.
Jiang Shu raised his hand, tidied up Yu Zheng's messy black hair, and asked softly, "Don't you want to leave yet?"
Yu Zheng murmured, "I feel a little dizzy, lie down for a while."
Anyway, he couldn't do anything in this state, so he might as well rest before leaving.
Yu Zheng's alcohol tolerance is really low.
Fortunately, he didn't drink too much, and the osmanthus wine was soft and mild, so it wouldn't hurt his body.
About a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Shu yawned lazily.
Usually at this time, Jiang Shu would have taken a nap. Today, he had consumed a lot of energy, so he was naturally more tired than usual.
Thinking that this was her own private room and there was no need to be cautious, Jiang Shu said tiredly, "Husband, go inside and let's sleep together."
Yu Zheng, with a confused mind, moved inside as he was told. Jiang Shu took off her coat, shoes and boots, lifted a corner of the quilt and lay down.
The bed outside had been very warm after being laid on by Yu Zheng for so long. Jiang Shu felt very comfortable and fell asleep in Yu Zheng's arms with heavy eyelids.
Yu Zheng also fell asleep due to the alcohol.
The two of them slept deeply and woke up in the evening. Jiang Ning had finished school, so they decided to have dinner before returning to the palace.
After getting up, Yu Zheng looked back at the bed with some reluctance.
Jiang Shu asked him blankly, "What's wrong?"
Yu Zheng sighed, "Shu'er's bed is very comfortable."
Jiang Shu's face heated up when she heard that, and she asked in confusion, "Isn't it the same as the bed in the palace?"
She even thought that the bed in the palace was more spacious and comfortable.
Yu Zheng laughed softly and said, "It's different. This is where Shu'er has slept since she was a child."
Although they are husband and wife and have to sleep in the same bed, it is particularly pleasing to integrate into each other's past.
Jiang Shu's cheeks were flushed by the teasing, and she glared at Yu Zheng coquettishly.
Yu Zheng's heart trembled, and he stepped closer, lowered his head and wanted to kiss Jiang Shu's forehead.
"Sister, brother-in-law!" The bright and cheerful shouts of the young man came into his ears through the door.
Yu Zheng froze, not knowing whether to continue.
"Puchi——" Jiang Shu couldn't help laughing, took Yu Zheng's hand and said, "Let's go."
Jiang Shu knew Jiang Ning's temper very well.
If they didn't go out, he would keep shouting outside the house until they went out.
The door opened, and Jiang Ning saw the two of them with excitement. " Sister, brother-in-law
."
Yu Zheng was a little annoyed, but when he saw Jiang Ning's respectful eyes and bright smile, his unhappiness disappeared.
It was getting dark, and the three of them walked out while chatting. "Sister, brother-in-law, the college will have winter vacation the day after tomorrow. Can I go to the palace to play with you?" Yu Zheng nodded and agreed: "I'm busy during the day, you can go to accompany your sister." Yu Zheng's biggest worry was that Jiang Shu would feel suffocated in the palace. After all, before she married him, she was free and could go out at will every day. After they got married, although he did not restrict Jiang Shu, Jiang Shu restricted herself for him and stayed in the palace every day. Besides, Jiang Shu is pregnant now, so it is not convenient for her to go out. After thinking about it, Yu Zheng felt guilty towards Jiang Shu, as he had invisibly clipped her wings and trapped her like a bird in a cage.
