Xiao Yan replied casually, "Price is not important."
He's just doing this to harm others without benefiting himself.
He thought that when Shen Cang decided on the marriage, he certainly didn't, and never did, consider what might happen to her after she got married and what situation she would face.
Then let him know!
What does it feel like to be forced into a situation where you can cry out to heaven and earth with no one to help you?
"I'll hand the man over to you; you can keep his life. The rest is up to you."
"yes."
Lin Tang thought to himself, "Just you wait and see," he was a professional at this.
Even a lump of poop can be "wrapped" into a flower.
He ordered his servants to carry Shen Cang out, shave him, wash him, and apply lotion, making him look shiny and smooth, before pushing him out to call out the price.
Just like Lin Tang said, at first no one thought much of them.
Until the madam said, "This one, you can do as you please."
That's when people with unusual fetishes spoke up.
Believe it or not, it sold for sixty or seventy taels of silver.
Lin Tang thought that Xiao Yan, as a dignified young master, would not care about such a small amount of money and would most likely give it to his servants.
Unexpectedly, the young master, who had previously claimed that "the price is not important," picked up the silver and left, leaving behind only the words: "I will come to pick you up at the beginning of the morning tomorrow."
After saying that, he left on his own and went to the Shen family.
When he went to find Shen Qiyin, she was having a fireside chat with Xianglan. He could hear her laughter from the courtyard, though he didn't know what they were talking about.
Honeysuckle is busy with a case and hasn't come back tonight.
Xiao Yan originally thought he could finally enjoy some time alone with his wife for a while, but who would have thought that one would leave and another would come!
It turned out that Shen Qiyin had noticed the recent cold weather, so she invited Xianglan to sleep in her room. She and Rendong still slept in the same bed, while Xianglan slept on a low couch by the window.
Seeing Xiao Yan arrive late at night, Xianglan was not surprised at all. Instead, she chuckled and said, "I have something to discuss with Banxia." Then, wrapped in her blanket, she stood up like a maggot and disappeared without a trace.
She figured that this way she could keep an eye on Banxia without getting in the young master's way, killing two birds with one stone.
I'm such a clever little devil!
After the clever little rascal Xianglan left, Xiao Yan skillfully took off his cloak, stood by the incense burner to warm himself, and waited until he was warm before sitting down next to Shen Qiyin.
She took his hand, which had been chilled by the night wind all night, and tried to warm it: "Why is it so cold?"
Xiao Yan felt the warmth from the back of her hand and looked at her cheeks, which were flushed and glowing from the warmth of the room. He felt a strong urge to kiss her.
Lost in his own thoughts, he hesitated for a moment before replying: "...I was carrying something."
After he finished speaking, he handed her the silver he had been carrying all the way.
Shen Qiyin asked in confusion, "Where did this come from?"
"Earned money."
"Salary?"
"No." He suddenly smiled, lowered his head, and gently pressed his cool forehead against hers: "You'll know tomorrow, my dear."
"There's another surprise for you, Yinyin."
Because of Xiao Yan's words, Shen Qiyin got up early the next morning.
Before breakfast was even finished, a servant rushed in, saying that someone from the palace had come to deliver an imperial edict!
