Double Life: The Long Road to Chasing Your Wife

When night falls, the bleak moonlight fills the earth, and under the cold moonlight, the desolate grasses give birth to countless mysterious shadows.

Xiao Yan opened the account book he got back from Wang Jingxuan and started to check the accounts.

Since the last life, under Lin Shu's care, Xiao Yan has developed the habit of eating late night snacks. After rebirth, without Lin Shu, Xiao Yan still has not gotten rid of this habit.

When it was time for Xiao Yan to have supper, Wang Xiaowu went to the kitchen to serve him supper.

"Master, the kitchen has prepared a late-night snack tonight. Please rest your eyes and have some late-night snack."

Xiao Yan put down his account book and took the porcelain bowl specially used for porridge and soup on Wang Xiaowu's tray. He opened the white lid and saw that it was still lotus seed porridge with some sweet-scented osmanthus sprinkled on it.

Xiao Yan picked it up and took a small taste with a spoon.

"Wang Xiaowu, I said it was osmanthus and lotus seed porridge, but this porridge still tastes different from what I had before."

Wang Xiaowu was also a little helpless. The mansion had hired more than a dozen chefs who knew how to make lotus seed porridge, but none of them could satisfy Xiao Yan.

"Sir, the kitchen sprinkled sweet-scented osmanthus into the lotus seed porridge as you ordered. Doesn't it still taste bad?"

"It's not the smell that my father-in-law remembers."

Wang Xiaowu has been following Xiao Yan. He really can't remember where Xiao Yan ate the lotus seed porridge, which made him so fond of it.

"Master, do you remember where you drank it? We can still go there to find it."

Xiao Yan suddenly recalled that in the previous life, Lin Shu brought it to his study on time every night. Thinking about this morning, Su Yi said that Lin Shu made the exquisite meal. Could it be that the lotus seed porridge was also made by Lin Shu?If so, wouldn't he never be able to drink it?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan began to ask Wang Xiaowu.

"Xiao Wang, my prince asked you to investigate the matter of Lin Shu and Su Yi's marriage during the morning court. How did the investigation go?"

"My lord, the man I am looking for has not responded today. I will bring him over tomorrow and ask him to respond to you in person."

"Well, I can't come to the Duke's Mansion. I'll wait until the incident in Dali Temple is over tomorrow and go to a restaurant to find a private room. I want to hear the results of the investigation in person."

Because of stomachache, Xiao Yan still drank the lotus seed porridge brought by Wang Xiaowu.

"Since the kitchen can't make lotus seed porridge, let me make some other soups or snacks in the future."

"Yes, I will give instructions to the kitchen carefully tomorrow."

Lin Mansion, Su Mansion to be precise. After Su Yi became the Minister of Dali Temple, Lin Shu had the plaque changed.

"Husband, how was the food today? Is it cold? Does it taste good? Are your colleagues laughing at you?"

Su Yi happily lifted Lin Shu, hugged Lin Shu's thighs, lifted Lin Shu above his head, and circled happily in the yard.

"I am a good wife to my husband. The beautiful and delicious meals cooked by my wife are made by myself. No one else is envious of them. How can anyone laugh at me?"

Lin Shu was also very happy. She was actually afraid that Su Yi would be like Xiao Yan in the previous life, and would give her a cold face because of the jokes made by his colleagues when he came back.

"Husband, put me down quickly. Everyone is here, don't let them see the joke." Lin Shu looked awkwardly at Mother Lin, Chen Laoer and Su Yuanyuan standing in the hall, patted Su Yi's shoulder with her hand, and reminded Su There are people next to Yi.

Su Yi followed Lin Shu's gesture and glanced at the three of them.

"What are you afraid of? We are all a family. Could it be that Mother Lin and Brother Chen will laugh at us?"

"I won't laugh at you. My boss, you have a good relationship, and I'm very happy." Chen Laoer explained awkwardly, rubbing his head.

Mother Lin looked at Lin Shu and Su Yi with an aunty smile.

"Uncle, please stop teasing my young lady. She is thin-skinned. If you continue teasing her, she may be too embarrassed to eat."

As soon as Mother Lin finished speaking, the blush on Lin Shu's face deepened a little deeper.

After Su Yi put Lin Shu down, Lin Shu pretended to be angry and pushed Su Yi's chest.

"I was kindly concerned about your first day in office, but you knew how to bully me as soon as you came back. Mother Lin, Brother Chen, let's eat first tomorrow without waiting for him, and we won't leave any food for him, so he will have nothing to eat when he comes back. .”

"Shu'er, my good wife, I made a mistake for my husband. Isn't this because I'm happy?" Su Yi took Lin Shu's arm and coaxed her.

"Daughter-in-law~"

"Don't be angry. You don't have to wait for me to come back and have dinner together. But if you don't leave food for me, I will become a person without parents and a wife who won't love me." Su Yi looked at Lin Shu sincerely.

The phrase "daughter-in-law~" just now made Lin Shu's ears almost pregnant.

"Okay! Stop talking so much and go wash your hands and eat quickly. Look at Yuanyuan's eyelids are so hungry that they are fighting. Everyone has been waiting for you for a long time."

Su Yi looked over and saw Su Yuanyuan staring at the food, looking like she was about to fall asleep.

"Mother Lin, Brother Chen, you don't have to wait for me to prepare the food in the future. You eat first. I just took office and am not familiar with the affairs yet, so I am quite busy these days."

"Okay, my uncle is on an errand for the first time today. We are also worried about you, so we want to wait for you to come back and eat together." Mother Lin explained while serving rice.

"Uncle, are you used to being an errand today? Has anyone bullied you?"

"Mother Lin, don't worry. We knew the adults who worked with me before we entered the examination room, and we got along quite well. It's just that my boss, Xiao Yan, Xiao Guogong, I didn't expect that he was so young and looked the same as me. She's the same age as Shu'er, and although her temper is a bit unstable, she doesn't make things difficult for us newcomers."

Lin Shu's heart clenched when she heard Xiao Yan's name. The life in Xiao Mansion in her previous life was always a lingering shadow in her heart.

"Husband, if Duke Xiao is giving you a hard time, why not be like my cousin and ask King Xian's brother-in-law to find an easy job for you."

Lin Shu was married to Xiao Yan in her last life. She knew Xiao Yan's character. Otherwise, Lin Shu had devoted herself to accompany Xiao Yan for three years. Anyone else's heart would have been moved even if it was made of stone. However, Xiao Yan's love for Lin Shu Shu's attitude became worse and worse.

"Shu'er, don't worry. As for my cousin, both he and his uncle and aunt hope that he can get a part-time job and have a peaceful life. In the future, like his uncle, he can retire and return to his hometown when he is old. And I Unlike my cousin, I want to benefit Long Yuan Kingdom and the people, and at the same time, I also want to make your life better, Shu'er."

Su Yi explained this way, and Lin Shu naturally understood that Lin Shu heard Xiao Yan say in her last life that Su Yi in the previous life had angered the current emperor because of certain things, and ended up in jail for a while, and finally waited for Emperor Lan to calm down. Xiao Yan saw that Su Yi was a pragmatic and good official, and since the matter was over, he gave Emperor Lan a step forward and released Su Yi on bail.

Before his rebirth, Su Yi was demoted two levels and worked as an idle official in Dali Temple responsible for recording criminals' quotations.
