MTL - Time Traveling: the Only Beloved Husband-Chapter 20

In her sleep, Xia Rong dreamed that she was sleeping in a peach forest, and the warm sun was shining on her body, making her uncomfortable. But it didn't take long for the scene to change suddenly. For some reason, he seemed to be dragged into a very dark cave. In his dream, he slept very unsteadily. He wanted to move but felt unable to move his limbs. He could not open his eyes but could hear rustling. The rustling sound, it should be the sound of rain falling outside the cave.

Sleeping in the cave, he could feel the temperature of his body was losing little by little, and his whole body gradually became cold. When the coldness reached a certain level, Xia Rong suddenly woke up from the bed.

After waking up, Xia Rong felt that there was no warmth in the quilt, and she was still a little dazed just after waking up, but it disappeared immediately because she remembered that today was the day when her husband was going out. Finding that there was no sign of her husband in the house, Xia Rong hurriedly put on the soft-soled shoes she wore indoors and wanted to run outside, regardless of her pajamas.

He Xin and He Miao, who were guarding the door of the room, heard the commotion inside and knew that their Zhengjun had woken up, so they opened the door and prepared to go in to wait for Zhengjun to get up. As soon as the two of them entered the room, they saw Xia Rong's disheveled clothes and anxious expression. They were really worried, so they hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said in a cautious tone, "Zhengjun, the young master has already left. Instruct the slaves and maids to let you sleep until you wake up naturally, and don't ask the slaves and maids to wake you up."

Although Xia Rong already had this guess, she was still stunned when she heard the answer from the two of them. Has the husband left? Why didn't he wake him up? After a while, Xia Rong asked with her head down, "When did Mr. Xiang leave, and did you say anything before leaving?"

"The young master left before Mao's time. Before he left, he told the servants to take good care of Zhengjun, and asked the servants to tell you that he will come back as soon as possible." He Xin replied with a respectful expression.

After hearing this, Xia Rong waved her hands and told the two to go down first. He really wanted to stay by himself right now. After the two saluted, Xia Rong walked back to the bed, only to find the note next to the pillow, presumably he was too anxious to see it when he woke up just now.

Carefully open the note, there are familiar notes on it, there are not many words, and the note reads, "I can't bear to part, I don't want to part. Missing you is like running water, and you will return as scheduled. I hope you take care of yourself, don't read In just twenty or so words, Xia Rong finally couldn't help crying after reading it, the silent tears flowed down like water, and some beautiful chins that slid across the arc fell on the note, Xia Rong hurriedly Wipe away the tears that haven't soaked the paper with his hands, for fear of ruining the note left by his husband.

After re-rolling the note and putting it in the dark compartment at the head of the bed, he fell into pain under the quilt that still smelled like a husband. He Xin and He Miao stayed outside the door, and they couldn't hear the movement in the room for a long time, they were both in a dilemma, because they were afraid that Zhengjun was too sad in the room, and wanted to go in to have a look, but also afraid that Zhengjun would not want to see him to them. The two looked at each other for a long time, but they were really worried, so they decided to disregard Zheng Jun's orders before, and opened the door to enter the house.

When He Miao saw the man who buried half of his body on the bed, he was very anxious, but his tone softened, and he coaxed softly, "Don't be uncomfortable, Mr. Zheng, you know that you will be hurt when you are outside." It hurts even more." He Xin also echoed from the side.

Xia Rong had let herself out by crying a lot, she didn't want the two to worry about him, so she calmed down her emotions, got up and asked the two to help him change and freshen up. After finishing these things, breakfast was already set up in the front hall, and the dining table was filled with his favorite food, crystal shrimp dumplings, steamed buns, osmanthus lotus root starch, sugar steamed crispy cheese, a large pile filled the table.

On weekdays, he must have a big appetite when he sees such a large table of things he likes. But today he was the only one sitting here eating at the table, but he lacked interest. He only ate one shrimp dumpling and added half a bowl of crispy cheese, and he really couldn't eat it anymore.

He Xin knew about this situation a long time ago, took out a blank notebook, stood in front of Xia Rong, and wrote down what Xia Rong used just now. Seeing that Xia Rongnao didn't understand what he was doing, he stepped forward and saluted, "The young master told you before you left that Zhengjun's daily dosage should be recorded clearly. He said that if you don't eat much at any meal, When you come back, you will punish the servants."

Xia Rong was really dumbfounded by this approach, seeing He Xin and He Miao look like they were appointed and punished after waiting for their husband to come back. He was not stupid, he knew that it was because Xianggong was afraid that he would not be around and he would not eat well, but Xianggong just grasped his weakness, and after thinking about it, he was still afraid that Xianggong would come back and punish them.

Sighing, he picked up the bowl on the table again, finished the bowl of crispy cheese, and ate some more sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root powder, until he really couldn't eat any more before giving up. He Xin and He Miao were relieved to see that the master was willing to eat well.

After breakfast, Xia Rong walked around the yard for a few laps as usual, then went back to the house and found a book about the case that she hadn’t read before. Sitting on the soft steps, he didn't turn the page for a long time. He couldn't read it. He stared at the page for a long time, and he knew every word, but he didn't know what it meant when he connected it for a long time. In the end, he dropped the book in his hand, nestled on the soft bed and fell asleep.

Shen Xiangyan first rode in a carriage all the way for three days, then changed the waterway for another four days before getting off the boat, and drove all the way south to more than a dozen towns. Although he was a little tired, the rewards were great. .

I found a lot of things that this dynasty didn't know could be used as spices. For example, the leaves of this plant, the lotus, will become a spice with a special smell after special treatment, because people here only know the uses of flowers, but He ignored the value of the leaves, so he bought some flowers as a cover, and bought a large number of leaves at a very low price by the way, and set long-term purchase conditions with them, just like this There are many similar situations, In short, Shen Xiangyan got a big deal this way.

The more places he went, the more Shen Xiangyan missed his little husband. Touching the position on his chest, there was a purse embroidered by Rong'er for him next to his body, and inside the purse was the amulet that Rong'er begged for him. Ever since he left Shen's residence, this action has become his habit. Whenever he misses it, he will touch his chest. Only in this way can he breathe a sigh of relief.

Sitting in the carriage, Shen Xiangyan opened the exquisitely carved wooden box in his hand, which was covered with a thick layer of delicate silk, and on top of the silk was an oval warm jade that looked particularly pure in quality. Warm jade is very rare, and wearing it for a long time has the effect of warming and nourishing people, promoting blood and accumulating vitality. Gently rubbing the body of the box with fingers, this is the best gift for Xia Rong who is suffering from body cold, it will be of great benefit to his body.

Not only this jade pendant, he would buy some local interesting things in every place he went along the way, and he has packed two full boxes so far. These are all gifts he bought for Xia Rong. He couldn't help being happy when he received the expressions at these times.

Looking at the scenery passing by outside the carriage, there is still the last city to go to. I heard that there is a kind of golden sandalwood with a very special fragrance. He has never heard of this kind of fragrant wood in the original world. Have you heard of it? Old spices are very attractive to a person like him who has studied and made incense for many years, so he has to go there to see and see.

Xia Rong sat on the bamboo couch and watched the crabapple flowers start to fall. A gust of wind blew by, the branches swayed slightly, and the flowers and leaves swirled down one by one. Xia Rong wouldn't be sad because the flower fell, he had the crabapple fruit in mind. Although the crabapple fruit that is not yet fully ripe is scary, it is very delicious to pick it up and drown it at this time, and the crabapple fruit has the effect of promoting body fluid and quenching thirst, and it is also very good for the body.

Xia Rong couldn't help being happy at the thought of marinating some in the past two days so that she could eat it when her husband came back.

When he was thinking about Meimei, He Xin came over and told, "Zhengjun, there is a lady outside who said she wanted to visit you, and he said that if you show this to you, you will know who he is." The flower silver hairpin was handed to Xia Rong.

Xia Rong looked at the silver hairpin and hurriedly took it over and stood up, "Has anyone welcomed you in? I'll go there now."

This silver hairpin was the birthday gift he gave Gu Chen back then. Gu Chen was his best friend before he got married. She took good care of him and helped him a lot. Otherwise, after Father left, his life in Xia Mansion would definitely be more difficult.

But since Gu Chen got married two years ago, they haven't seen each other. This time he came to visit at the house, how could Xia Rong not be in a hurry to see him.
