After sending Shen Yue away, Ye Chen directly took Shen Qiu to Cui Yu Pavilion. This was the room where Shen Qiu had been dressing last time. He didn't expect that Xiao Shu was actually here.
"Qiu'er, let Xiaoshu do your makeup. I'll go pick out a dress for you. I'll take Qiu'er to a place." Finally, she tapped Chen Qiu's nose, then forced Chen Qiu to sit in front of the mirror, and turned around and went to the front of the Cuiyu Pavilion shop.
Chen Qiu looked at Xiao Shu in the mirror, "Xiao Shu, when did you come here?"
As Xiao Shu was combing Chen Qiu's hair, she said, "Madam, right after you left the house, Brother Pang came here with me. He said that the Duke asked him to dress you up a little, and he also gave me a set of headgear and told me to wear it on you."
"What is this guy trying to do? My brother's matter is not over yet. Oh, I made a bad choice of friends." Chen Qiu had no interest at all and looked listless.
Xiao Shu arranged her hair into a bun and opened the box Pang Hu had given her. Inside was a set of ruby head ornaments. Two of the hairpins had a crabapple flower the size of a baby's palm carved on each ruby. Crabapple hairpins are not uncommon, and ruby hairpins are not uncommon either, but crabapple flower hairpins carved from a whole piece of ruby are very rare. The crabapple flowers on the two hairpins are exactly the same in size and color.
Chen Qiu took a look and said, "It's better to just wear two hairpins and earrings. Those things hanging around my neck are making my neck hurt."
"If you don't want to wear it, then don't wear it. I just want to make you happy. Qiu'er looks the best without that thing." Ye Chen had returned with a red dress in his hand. He spread the dress out and hung it on the hanger. This dress was much simpler and neater than usual. The sleeves were not so wide, and there was no loose outer garment.
"I'm already married, so it's not okay for me to wear a dress like this?" Chen Qiu stared at the dress with golden light in her eyes. This dress was not like the complicated ones she had worn since she got married, nor was it like a tight-fitting outfit. It seemed like a compromise between the two. It was really suitable for a martial artist like her.
Ye Chen took in Chen Qiu's expression and went to pick up the dress with a smile, "Since Qiu'er doesn't like it, let's throw it away and don't let it bother Qiu'er."
As she was about to throw it, she was held down by Chen Qiu, "I like it, I like it very much, my husband, you have become bad!"
Ye Chen smiled and waved his hand to let Xiao Shu go out, and went forward to change Chen Qiu's clothes. Chen Qiu had never dressed herself since she got married.
After Chen Qiu put on her dress, the two of them left Cuiyu Pavilion and got directly into the carriage. Mu Qing was driving, and there was no one else.
The carriage drove along, and when they got off, the sky outside was already full of rosy clouds. "Morning glow doesn't go out, but evening glow travels thousands of miles. It looks like tomorrow will be a good day!" Chen Qiu recognized this place as soon as he got off the carriage. This was the secret garden.
"Mu Qing, go back. Come pick us up at this time tomorrow." After Mu Qing drove away in the carriage, Ye Chen took Chen Qiu's hand and walked towards the small cave. There was no difference outside, but after turning a corner, there was no road.
Ye Chen reached out and pressed a stone, and the stone in front opened like a door. "Husband, why did it become like this here?" Ye Chen just smiled, then pulled Chen Qiu into the door.
This is a valley. There is still rosy clouds in the sky outside, but it is already dark inside. "Oh, I miscalculated." Ye Chen looked at the dark place and sighed alone.
"Husband, there is a house over there. Did you ask someone to build it?" Chen Qiu pointed to a small courtyard in front and asked Ye Chen excitedly.
Fortunately, there is this. Ye Chen raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Yes, let's go in and take a look?"
The road from the cave entrance to the yard was paved, and it was no longer as bumpy as the first time I came.
The two entered the yard, where lights were on. There were only five rooms in the entire yard, which was surrounded by a fence and looked like a small farmyard.
Ye Chen took Chen Qiu's hand and said, "Qiu'er, do you remember what day it is today? I wanted to bring you here early this morning. The flowers in April are all gone, but there are still peach blossoms here. I wanted to let you see them, but my brother's business delayed me, so I can only see them tomorrow." As Ye Chen spoke, he glanced at the darker valley.
"This day last year was the day I got married to you. I've always remembered it." Chen Qiu withdrew his gaze from the yard and looked at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen lowered his head and kissed Chen Qiu's temples, "Qiu'er, before Mu Qing comes to pick us up, there will only be the two of us here, and no one will come to disturb us."
Chen Qiu nodded. She was really happy. She had remembered this place since her last visit. She had been thinking of coming here again one day, but she didn't expect that Ye Chen had turned this place into their secret base.
"Gurgle, gurgle," a sound came out at an inappropriate time. "Qiu'er, are you hungry?" Ye Chen smiled and looked at the person whose face had already blushed. Shen Qiu rested her head on Ye Chen's chest. Why did her stomach growl at such an inappropriate time? She reached out and touched her stomach, and another "gurgle, gurgle" sound came.
"I asked someone to put some ingredients here. We should be able to cook. Let's go to the kitchen and take a look." Ye Chen pulled Chen Qiu to the west kitchen.
Ye Chen took out a fire starter and blew it, then found a candle that had been placed there and lit it. Although the kitchen was small, it had everything. The rice jar and the noodle jar were full, as well as pork, pork ribs, and a lot of seasonal vegetables. He even used a large water tank to raise a few fish.
Chen Qiu looked at Xinqi and said, "Husband, are you planning to live here for a long time? Why have you prepared everything?"
Ye Chen rolled up his sleeves and said, "I plan to stay here with you for a few days and enjoy our world of two."
"But, An An's hundred-day banquet will be in a few days. Can we not attack Fang Yu at An An's hundred-day banquet? I don't want to think of her every time I think of An An's hundred-day banquet. It's so disgusting!" Chen Qiu helped Ye Chen pick vegetables.
Ye Chen nodded. "Well, since my eldest brother is gone, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. She is not worthy of being dealt with at our son's hundred-day banquet. Let's enjoy some free time first. When my eldest brother arrives in the northwest, we will see how to deal with her. However, I think that even if we don't take action, she will get into trouble on her own. I just don't know who will be the next to suffer. It's not worth it for you to work so hard for such a person. Can you leave it all to your husband?"
Chen Qiu narrowed her almond-shaped eyes into a slit again, "Husband, why are you so nice?"
Ye Chen kissed Chen Qiu's face fiercely, "I will always treat you well in the future. What do you want to eat? I will cook!"
Chen Qiu looked Ye Chen up and down, and then up and down again. "Husband, you can cook? Why don't I believe it?"
Ye Chen said with a smile: "Look down on me? Huh? I can make a lot? Don't believe me? Wait, there will be delicious food in a while!"
Ye Chen really can't cook in this life, but he cooked for Shen Qiu in his previous life. Ever since he knew he fell in love with Shen Qiu, he learned from the cook the dishes that Shen Qiu liked. But every time he said he cooked it, Shen Qiu would only take a small bite and then stop eating. But as long as he didn't say he cooked it, she would eat a lot.
In his previous life, he also cooked for Shen Qiu for half a year, but he didn't dare to say that it was he who cooked. In this life, he cooked for his Qiu'er again, and he no longer felt uneasy.
