"Husband, please eat first."
Yang Zhao did not speak immediately, but looked at the untouched food in front of him and spoke. Her voice was soft and calm, just like herself, soft and calm.
This is not offensive, but rather relaxing and comfortable.
Shen Li originally wanted to continue the previous topic, but when he met her gaze, for some reason, he suddenly felt that if he didn't eat, she wouldn't talk about anything, which made him laugh.
But he ate it anyway.
He was very gentle and elegant when eating. After all, he was a young man brought up in a scholarly family. Even though he had been exiled for six years, the elegance in his bones still existed.
In fact, Shen Li is also very handsome, and has the elegant temperament of a scholar. Not to mention anything else, just based on his good looks, it is enough to make the noble ladies in the capital fall in love with him.
But it’s a pity, he is just a scumbag!!
"Can you tell me now? Why don't you agree to adopt Xuan Ge'er? Is there something about him that makes you dissatisfied?" After putting down his bowl and chopsticks, Chen Li looked at Yang Zhao and asked.
Yang Zhaowei shook his head. "I'm not dissatisfied. He's a good kid. He seemed a little dumb at first, but after getting to know him, I found he's actually a smart kid. It's just..."
She paused.
The mother and son, who were shivering with cold outside the window, subconsciously moved closer to the window and pricked up their ears.
"Just what?" He was not dissatisfied, but he did not agree to the adoption. Shen Li was puzzled.
"As for the specific reasons, you should go back and ask the old lady in person! I came here tonight mainly because I want to discuss something with you." Yang Zhao changed the subject lightly.
Shen Li was a little dissatisfied, but still said softly; "You say."
"I intend to take a concubine for my husband."
What!
Shen Li was stunned.
Wei Yaer outside almost screamed out in surprise, and could only bite her lips hard to suppress the emotions in her heart.
Taking a concubine?
She actually wants to take a concubine for her husband?
She is crazy!!
"You want to take a concubine for me?" Shen Li was a little bit incredulous.
"Yes, husband!"
Chen Li frowned as he looked at Yang Zhao, who was sitting on a round stool with a serious expression. He suddenly felt unhappy and said in a low voice, "Why did you suddenly give me a concubine?"
Yang Zhao did not explain.
Instead, she continued in a gentle voice, "I think that girl just now is quite good. She knows some medical skills, and she came back from the border with my husband. She also knows how to take care of my husband. I think she is very suitable. What do you think, my husband?"
"Ya'er?"
Is she...jealous?
Shen Li's brows relaxed as he explained, "Ya'er is just a servant, not the kind of relationship you think!"
Wei Yaer outside the window suddenly clenched her hands.
I don't know if it was because Yang Zhao suggested that she be a concubine, or because of the slave servant mentioned by Shen Li, but her face, which was already blue from the cold, seemed to be even more blue at this moment...
Of course, Shen Li didn’t know.
He looked at Yang Zhao and said softly, "If you mind, Madam, I'll have someone send her away later."
Yang Zhao said nothing.
However, his peripheral vision swept across the corner of clothes that was hidden outside the window.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Chen Li continued, "A Zhao, don't think too much. You are my wife. You have been waiting for me for six years and protecting the Shen family for me for six years. I, Chen Li, have sworn to heaven that I will never let you down in this life. You are my only wife. Don't mention taking a concubine anymore. I will be with you for the rest of my life..."
Very sincere words.
If it were another woman, she would probably be moved to tears by his words.
Yang Zhao felt a little nauseous after hearing this.
This man is truly disgusting! !
If he had just agreed to take a concubine, she might have looked up to him, after all, it would have shown that he was at least not that greedy! But it was obvious that this man was greedy and despicable at heart...
I wanted to continue to do superficial work, but Yang Zhao suddenly lost interest.
This man.
Despicable enough.
There was no need for her to add fuel to the fire in the subsequent events. As a shameless person at heart, he would naturally choose the most shameless way to deal with things...
As for Wei Yaer.
What Shen Li just said is enough for now!!
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao stood up and said, "Since my husband has said so, I will not say any more. I am still feeling unwell, so I will go back first."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Chen Li smiled and watched her back, a glint in his eyes: "Are you shy already? You really can't stand being teased!"
He thought Yang Zhao left out of shyness.
After all, women in a deep house only want to win their husbands' hearts, so they are easy to coax! !
When Wei Yaer came in, the smile in his eyes had not yet faded.
Wei Yaer bit her lip hard, then suppressed the jealousy and unwillingness in her eyes, "Brother Chen."
"Ya'er? Is Brother Xuan back?"
When Shen Li saw that it was Wei Yaer, he naturally put away his emotions, smiled gently, waved at her, and when she came closer, he held her hand with his big hand: "Why are your hands so cold?"
Shen Li thought of something, his eyes flickered slightly, but his voice was gentle: "Ya'er, did you hear it outside just now?"
Wei Yaer lowered her head and remained silent.
Chen Li pulled her to sit on the bed, tapped her nose lightly, and then said gently and lovingly: "You, your emotions are written on your face. What Yang Zhao and I said just now is true, but not entirely true."
Wei Yaer couldn't help but ask: "Then what is true?"
Chen Li held her hand tightly: "Ya'er, remember, I treat you differently from Yang Zhao. You are not only the woman I like, but also Xuan Ge'er's biological mother. No one can replace you."
