278 Her Part Our Future (Part 2)

“I’ve talked to the blacksmith. He can give others whatever he learns, and I’ll take a cut. I’ve put the silver in your money box.”

Yue Jiaojiao felt that Zhao Zhan was someone who was born to do business. This was because he was quick-witted.

He even handed over all the silver he had. Usually, even if he took some silver, he would tell Yue Jiaojiao in advance and record it in the account book.

In fact, Yue Jiaojiao was too lazy to count the amount of silver in the money box that Zhao Zhan had gotten someone to pack for her.

This person was so good to her that Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t help but feel at ease whenever he was around.

After finishing her meal, Madam Qin took her left and left the dining room. Although the young couple was usually very clingy, she felt that they were exceptionally entangled today. It always felt like that whenever she was around.

“Jiaojiao, should we go and take a long walk when spring comes?”

Zhao Zhan calculated the time it took for the entire meal. “You enjoyed reading those few books at home. Do you like any of the places mentioned in them? We can go out and visit the places.”

Yue Jiaojiao gave it some serious thought and said, “Let’s forget about it for now. It’s too troublesome to go out and have fun now with the things we have to do at home. It’ll take too long on the road. In the future, we’ll build a carriage that we like. When we have the money and the time, we’ll go out and have fun then.”

Zhao Zhan silently noted down this goal.

Madam Qin, who was guarding the door, saw the two of them finish eating and hurriedly said, “You can leave the bowls and chopsticks there and let me clean them up. It’s dark outside. You should accompany my lady back to her room.”

Yue Jiaojiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at Madam Qin’s excuse.

“Thank you so much.”

Zhao Zhan replied, then put on the cloak that the woman had taken off to the side earlier because she had heated up from eating. “Madam Qin is right.”

This man was being a little strange today. He was usually good to her, but he was treating her like a royal today.

Zhao Zhan sent her into the house, then returned to the small kitchen in the backyard to prepare a bowl of hot water. He busied himself in and out, waiting for Yue Jiaojiao to finish tidying up and be tucked into the warm blanket. Only then did he tidy himself up and lay down beside her.

He pulled her into his arms immediately after.

Yue Jiaojiao conveniently placed her legs on his body as well, and lay down quietly with her eyes lowered.

It was quiet outside.

Zhao Zhan blew out the oil lamp.

His arm was propped up on Yue Jiaojiao’s body for fear that the woman would not be able to take the pressure,

He rubbed his rough fingers on her face.

Her skin was as white as snow.

The inner clothes rolled up into a pile.

The two of them interlocked their fingers. Zhao Zhan massaged the woman’s fingers and held her hand in his palm.

The two of them already had an intimate understanding of what they wanted.

Every part of it was perfectly coordinated.

Someone in the room didn’t close the bamboo pipe properly, and the water droplets dripped onto the tiled floor.

“Zhao Zhan, is that you?”

Madam Qin, who was guarding the bedroom door, heard the movement and entered the room. “Are you awake?”

As she spoke, she stepped forward to tie up all the curtains.

The sunlight shone into the room.

Yue Jiaojiao subconsciously covered her face with her hand. “Did I sleep until noon again?”

“You woke up early today.” Madam Qin took out her clothes. “There is no hurry. Sir Zhao told me to warm yourclothes up before you wear them. He said that clothes that are warmed on charcoal have a strong smell, so it’s better to use hot water instead.”

Yue Jiaojiao’s face was slightly red.

Zhao Zhan was acting so well-behaved that she almost became demented from the treatment.

“Where did Zhao Zhan go?”

“He went to make arrangements for the pickling workshop.” Madam Qin touched the temperature of her clothes. “He got up before dawn and went to town. He’s already back and is busy with the warehouse workers at the back. My lady, the clothes are ready.”

Madam Qin placed the clothes by the bed.

Yue Jiaojiao sat up and tidied up the undergarments that she had slept through.

“If your parents knew how well you were being treated right now, they can rest in peace in the afterlife.”

She watched as Madam Qin stared at her and spoke with a smile.

Yue Jiaojiao subconsciously lowered her eyes to take a look, and then silently pulled down her sleeve.

Below her collarbones, there were pieces of roses blooming, extending all the way to her inner clothes, making people enticed by the way she dressed.

Even though Zhao Zhan was careful with where he looked, he still couldn’t help but get distracted.

“You don’t have to be shy. It’s a good thing that both of you are on good terms. I’ve witnessed many rich families breaking apart from secrets. I admire the relationship between the two of you. It’s about time for you to bear children soon.”
