The next morning, the sky was clear and the weather was fine.
Shen Bei'an was holding a large pillow in his arms, burying his head in it.
Still half asleep, I don't know how I got up. I reached out to touch him, but Gu Nanyan was nowhere to be seen.
He sat up with some difficulty, rubbing his temples.
It's true, you really shouldn't drink too much alcohol.
This body's alcohol tolerance is even worse than his original body's.
That small pot actually got drunk.
But thinking about it, getting drunk from mistakenly drinking too much water doesn't seem like such a big deal.
etc!
That bastard Gu Nanyan!
Without even bothering to wash up, if it weren't for Gu Nanyan's warning earlier, this Fifth Master probably wouldn't even have put on his shoes and stormed into the living room.
Sure enough, a woman was enjoying her meal at the table, chatting with Uncle Chen.
"Sir, you're awake." Aunt Wang spotted him and quickly invited him to sit down.
Shen Bei'an stomped her feet angrily as she arrived at the dining table. "Uncle Chen, who is she? Why is she in my house?"
The word "my home" was given special emphasis.
"And what about Gu Nanyan?" What does that bastard mean?
Do you want to keep the wife at home while having affairs on the side?
What does it mean to bring these directly home?
Does this really prove the saying, "Once you get something, you don't cherish it"?
"Sir, this is the eldest son of the Hua family. The eldest daughter-in-law has gone out for exercise."
Hua Yueli slowly sipped a spoonful of lotus seed, rice, bean, and mixed grain porridge. "I hope Fifth Master Shen is well. At this hour, A-Yan should be back from his workout soon. It seems Fifth Master Shen is sleeping well. Aunt Wang made some lotus seed, rice, bean, and mixed grain porridge, which is quite good. Fifth Master Shen, please have some with you."
Shen Beian was taken aback. If he remembered correctly, this guy was still messing around with him last night, right?
Why are you concerned about yourself this morning?
I'm a little slow to react.
I subconsciously sat down in the chair and took the porridge that Aunt Wang handed me.
Just as he was about to say thank you,
etc!
This is his house!
He is the master!
What's with this damn thing acting like it's the "master"?
Young Master Hua, is that right?
If he remembers correctly, her child is already three years old, right?
"Is it inappropriate for Young Master Hua to stay overnight at my humble abode last night? Aren't you worried that Mr. Hua and Young Master Hua might be concerned?"
Hua Yueli gracefully picked up her chopsticks. "Boss Zhou isn't a child anymore, and Ninth Brother is sensible too. Besides, I don't know how many times I slept here before it was even built." She glanced around, seemingly with a hint of nostalgia.
Shen Bei'an held the warm jade and silver spoon in his hand. "Oh, that Young Master Hua must have worked very hard, sleeping on the ground and under the sky. Speaking of supervising the construction, A-Yan has never told me about these trivial matters. If I had known earlier that it was Young Master Hua who was supervising the construction, I would have definitely invited Young Master Hua to Baiweiju for a meal." He also had a smile on his face.
Hua Yueli picked up a crab roe soup dumpling, took a bite, and found the soup rich and the crab meat delicious. "It's not too hard, after all, it's where Ayan will be staying, and besides, there's my room too."
"Besides, even at Baiweiju, in my eyes, the chef's skills can't compare to Aunt Wang's. Don't you agree, Aunt Wang?" He smiled at Aunt Wang.
Aunt Wang waved her hands repeatedly, "It's not as exaggerated as what Young Master Hua said. I only have the blessings of my ancestors. How can I be compared to the head chef of Baiweiju?"
"No way! In my heart, Aunt Wang's cooking is the best," Hua Yueli said with a smile. "And having eaten here since I was a child, Aunt Wang's cooking is still the one that suits my taste the most!"
Damn it,
Where did this sycophant come from?
Shen Beian was so angry that he couldn't even eat his favorite crab roe soup dumplings.
calm,
Shen Bei'an
calm
This damn thing is clearly trying to make you angry and throw a tantrum.
calm
“Aunt Wang’s cooking skills are naturally excellent. Since we are entertaining Young Master Hua, we should be more lavish. How could we let Aunt Wang work so hard?” Shen Bei’an forced out what he thought was an extremely gentle smile.
Aunt Wang and Uncle Chen, who were standing to the side, looked like they were about to kill someone. They looked at each other and decided to leave the battlefield.
Once Aunt Wang and Uncle Chen left, only the two of them remained in the large restaurant.
Hua Yueli knew very well what kind of person Shen Bei'an was, and Shen Bei'an, in any case, had no good feelings towards Hua Yueli whatsoever.
"You've finished eating, aren't you going to leave already?" Shen Bei'an took a sip of the porridge, which looked similar to eight-treasure porridge but tasted even better—soft, sticky, and sweet—and his tone was cool.
Hua Yueli demurely picked up a handkerchief from the side and wiped her mouth, leaving not a drop in the bowl.
It's clear they're veterans of the "Clean Plate Campaign".
“Ah Yan hasn’t come back yet, so I’m not in a hurry. But you, Fifth Master Shen, you must have just gotten out of bed at this hour, right?” She said, looking him up and down.
"Tsk tsk, what a waste of such fine silk and such exquisite weaving technique, to be ruined like this."
The lotus-root-colored silk robe with cloud and water patterns that Shen Bei'an is wearing is a pure handicraft, made by a national-level intangible cultural heritage inheritor, and the cloud and water patterns on it are embroidered by a master embroiderer.
It's no exaggeration to say that Shen Beian's bathrobe could easily buy a nearly 200-square-meter apartment in a third- or fourth-tier city.
Shen Beian wasn't annoyed by these words. In the real world, he wasn't that wealthy, and what he could use was all precious.
After arriving here, I don't know how Gu Nanyan took care of himself, but because the fabric of his clothes was a little cheap, he developed large patches of red rashes all over his body.
Everything I use is the best; I don't buy any so-called international luxury brands.
Because everything about Master Shen, including his clothes and shoes, was custom-made.
The so-called national brand luxury goods that I bought are just kept at home for display.
And no matter how you try to make these robes wrinkle-free, dust won't stick to them.
Hua Yuening said this mainly because he had rushed downstairs without even changing out of his bathrobe.
Indeed, this material is very precious.
She gave a light snort. "Oh, just a bathrobe. You know my skin is delicate and can't handle those materials, and A-Yan knows it too. It's just a bathrobe. Could it be that Young Master Hua is so..." dejected. She didn't finish the sentence.
Shen Beian covered his mouth, everything was self-evident.
Hua Yueli was almost laughing in anger, but she tried her best to control her facial expression. "I was just thinking that since Master Shen stays at home every day, he naturally doesn't know how hard A-Yan works outside. Such extravagance is simply unacceptable."
Damn it, is this some kind of 1982 Longjing tea or Zhou Dunyi's white lotus flower?!
Ha, he's such a drama queen!
Shen Bei'an laughed, "Oh, what are you saying, Young Master Hua? I don't mind if you call me 'Mr. Gu,' after all, after A-Yan and I got married, A-Yan just told me to do whatever I wanted. A-Yan and I grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and A-Yan knows my personality better than anyone else."
"Besides, who in the capital doesn't know that my temperament is all thanks to A-Yan's pampering?"
You're still too green to play with me.
