【Overhaul, 2023.09.03 Leave a claw】
a long time.
〔I have been honest, please let me go (＞﹏＜)〕
Ji Huai washed the sheets happily. While washing, he thought that two sheets were not enough to change, so he had to buy a few more tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Ji Huai prepared breakfast and called Yun Yuan to get up.
The beautiful lady was sleeping soundly, with her black hair spread out on the bed.

Ji Huai used his slender fingers to push aside her sweaty hair, kissed her with a smile on his face, went out to reheat the breakfast and brought it to her.
After tidying up, Yun Yuan got on the carriage, and Ji Huai drove the carriage outside. The curtain was lowered to separate the two of them. To outsiders, they looked normal. No one knew what happened between them last night?
Someone saw Ji Huai driving a carriage and came forward curiously to ask, "Brother Huai, whose carriage is this?"
Ji Huai: "I borrowed it from a friend. He saw that it was inconvenient for me to stay in the village, so he left the carriage for me to drive."
"You're a good friend."
"Indeed, I will thank him later. If he hadn't lent me the silver and the carriage, I wouldn't even have enough money to eat."
The person who approached was surprised: "You also borrowed money?"
Ji Huai sighed and made up stories.
In his words, he portrayed himself as a poor man who worked diligently but ended up not getting paid because his employer ran away. He also said that he was sick and needed to take medicine, and that he was taking this opportunity to go home and rest.
The man looked sympathetic and asked, "So you went out to get medicine this time?"
Ji Huai continued to talk nonsense, and Yun Yuan rolled her eyes. How much does he love pretending to be poor?
The carriage wobbled forward, and around noon, the two finally entered the city.
The streets were bustling with people and shops. Yun Yuan asked Ji Huai to find a clothing store because she wanted to buy a lot of clothes.
The original owner didn't like washing clothes. She used to collect them and ask the village maid to wash them. After Yun Yuan came, the maid went to visit her relatives in another place, and she didn't find another person to wash the clothes. She just threw away the clothes after wearing them, and she almost had no clothes to wear.
Ji Huai took her to the best clothing store in the city. Because her figure was so good, she couldn't find any clothes that fit her in the entire store, so she had to pay to have them custom-made.
Ji Huai was still wearing his shabby coarse cloth shorts, standing next to Yun Yuan like a servant. Everyone thought he was a servant accompanying Yun Yuan shopping. Ji Huai did not explain, and even seemed a little proud.
Yun Yuan suspected that he wanted to play the pig and eat the tiger, but he could not find any evidence.
After she chose the colors and patterns, Ji Huai ordered fifty sets of clothes for her without blinking an eye. After ordering the clothes, he went to the jewelry store next door to choose accessories, and then lip balm and eyebrow makeup. After the whole process, Ji Huai spent no less than a thousand taels of silver.
Those who witnessed all this could not help but sigh that this beautiful lady was obviously loved by her husband, which was why her husband generously let the servants bring such a generous amount of money to accompany the lady when she went out.
When Yun Yuan was tired of shopping, she finally said to Ji Huai, "Let's go to Yan Xiaoman's store and take a look."
Ji Huai nodded and responded, "The braised meat shop she runs is located near the academy. It's noon now, so there must be many students eating there, so it might be a little crowded."
Yun Yuan didn't care at all and said with a smile, "It's okay. More people means more fun. I want to see how delicious her braised meat is."
It is worth mentioning that in addition to Yan Xiaoman’s braised meat shop, there is also Ji Huai’s own Huai Shang Restaurant around the academy.
So, Ji Huai first drove the carriage to the backyard of the restaurant and arranged someone to guard it, and then took Yun Yuan towards the braised meat shop.
Before she even got close, Yun Yuan could already smell the unique and tempting aroma emanating from the braised meat.
Although it is impossible to judge its taste for the time being, the aroma alone is indeed quite tempting.
Yan Xiaoman's braised meat shop was not big, and it was already crowded when Yun Yuan arrived. Because of her outstanding appearance, many people secretly looked at her, but with the burly Ji Huai around, no one dared to approach her easily.
Yan Xiaoman and Ergouzi were busy in the store, and finally it was Yun Yuan's turn.
"This guest wants to..." Seeing Yun Yuan's face, Yan Xiaoman's smile faded: "What are you doing here? You are not welcome here."
Yun Yuan raised an eyebrow: "I'm here to eat. You're running a business, why are you treating me differently?"
Yan Xiaoman: "I made the braised pork. I can sell it to whoever I want, and I won't sell it to whoever I don't want. What can you do to me?"
Yun Yuan shrugged helplessly: "I won't leave unless you sell me some meat. Look, there are people queuing up behind me. Everyone's time is precious. Are you sure you want to waste it like this?"
"Yes, Madam Boss, it's just a plate of braised meat, and they didn't say they don't want to pay."
Seeing that the people queuing behind him were already somewhat dissatisfied, Yan Xiaoman glared at Yun Yuan and said reluctantly, "What do you want to eat? Hurry up."
Yun Yuan said, "Give me one portion of all the dishes and two servings of rice."
Only then did Yan Xiaoman notice Ji Huai beside her. Seeing the two of them coming out together, her eyes became meaningful.
Yun Yuan let her watch without feeling guilty. So what if they were like this? Could she find evidence?
At this time, Ji Shen walked straight inside with his teacher and classmates. There were more than a dozen people in the group, most of whom had attended the funeral and were impressed by Ji Zhang's beautiful wife. Some of them wanted to wait for three months after the funeral to invite a matchmaker to come to their house.
Everyone greeted Yun Yuan enthusiastically.
"My sister-in-law fainted at the funeral last time. Has she recovered fully now?"
Yun Yuan thanked them for their concern and said, "I'm fine now, so I have the energy to come out and relax. Thank you for your concern."
Everyone enthusiastically told her which places in the city were fun and what delicious food was available. The scene was very lively and everyone wanted to perform well in front of Yun Yuan.
Mu Xingzhi was also among them. When he saw Ji Huai next to Yun Yuan, his eyes darkened a little.
He didn't want to meddle in other people's business, and he had been trying his best not to think about her these days, but when he saw her again, she didn't have to do anything, and it still made his heart beat fast.
Mu Xingzhi thought that he would find an opportunity to ask her if she was willing to go with him, hoping it was not too late.
