【Father-in-law Chapter 12】Strong Wind

Chu Jiao made the old lady and the first lady feel embarrassed about the kitchen, and she also bought a small kitchen in her own Tingyu Pavilion in the East Courtyard.

Since Chu Jiao came, the life of the third room has been greatly improved. Whether it is food or clothing expenses, it is a world of difference from before.

Of course, this is also due to Chu Jiao's generosity.

Shen Zhen never cared about these, but he felt it.

He was not a person who enjoyed himself. The only purpose of staying in the Shen Mansion was to see it fall. Therefore, he never cared about Zhu's harshness on weekdays as long as it did not touch his bottom line.

Shen Zhen was busy dealing with an important case during this period, and the candles in the study were burned until midnight every day.

Chu Jiao had been instructing Hong Xiu to keep an eye on Shen Zhen's movements, so naturally she knew about his busyness at the first time.

Since the night when the two had a skin-to-skin blind date, they have never been alone together.

On the surface, Shen Zhen always looks like a humble gentleman, strictly observing the distance between father-in-law and daughter-in-law, and never overstepping the line, but Chu Jiao can always feel a burning gaze when the two meet.

Humph, she doesn't want to take the initiative this time.

Chu Jiao's heart is always out of control when she looks at that face, so she simply adopts a half-flirting and half-non-flirting attitude this time, caring about her father-in-law's food, clothing and daily expenses every day, and making detailed preparations, so that he can always think of her existence from the things around him, but it is difficult for him to see her.

Chu Jiao doesn't know if she will kill herself by doing this, but as of now, the effect is good.

"Third Young Madam, I'm sorry to bother you so late."

It was midsummer, and the weather was hot and sultry. Chu Jiao was taking a bath in the courtyard to cool off when she saw Shen Zhen's personal servant Fu Lai running over.

"Third Master just returned home and wanted to eat the thousand-layer shaved ice you made."

Since Shen Zhen became an official, he often received rewards from the emperor, and the rewards were piled up in the warehouse of the East Courtyard and covered in dust until Chu Jiao came.

Chu Jiao found a rare item, an ice cream, which came in handy in the hot summer.

The thousand-layer snowflake ice that Shen Zhen mentioned is actually a kind of ice smoothie that Chu Jiao made with an ice scoop. Although it is very common in modern times, it is very fresh here. It tastes cool and delicious in summer and is refreshing.

I don’t know if it is a coincidence or something else. In the last world, He Sinian liked to eat sweets very much, and in this world, Shen Zhen is the same.

Chu Jiao asked Lu Huan to go to the small kitchen to make ice smoothies, and took some food, but did not give the food to Fu Lai. She went to Tingfengxuan where Shen Zhen lived with him.

"You go down, I will personally serve it to my father-in-law."

When she came to the door of the study, Chu Jiao whispered to Fu Lai.

Fu Lai wanted to say that no one was allowed to enter the study of their old man, but the door of the study suddenly opened.

Shen Zhen stood at the door. "Didn't you hear what the young lady said?"

Fu Lai nodded and left respectfully. Outside the study, only Chu Jiao was left holding a food tray, looking at the tall man coquettishly.

"Cough," Shen Zhen put his fist against his mouth and pretended to cough, "It's windy in summer, come in first."

Chu Jiao lowered her head, looked at the feather sleeves hanging straight down at her side, and raised the corners of her mouth.

Where does the wind come from?
