The cold husband can't warm me up, I don't love him anymore

I don’t know what Li Chenyu said, but the house did become quiet in the following days.

Qi Zhongxiu never came to the door again, as if he had given up the idea.

However, Chen You sent someone to ask about her, saying that he was worried about her health.

If you need a doctor or any medicine, you can always find him.

If it were in the past, she might have happily asked Doctor Chen to help look at the pills Feng Zhenzhu gave her.

Find out what's wrong with her.

But now she suddenly didn't want to know anymore.

She vaguely felt that her illness must be a big trouble.

Maybe she was dying.

In that case, maybe not knowing is a good thing?

In her spare time, she wrote a letter to Shen Du.

She avoided talking about what Shen Du said in his last letter.

I just told him in detail about food.

Afterwards, Cui Lingyi mentioned the plague again.

She was thinking simply.

After all, Shen Du is now in the two lakes. If prevention can be taken in advance, perhaps the plague will not spread to Shangjing.

Not so many people would have died.

But if this is the case, Feng Zhenzhu’s position as county lord will probably be lost.

In her previous life, it was because of the outbreak of the plague that Feng Zhenzhu turned the tide and saved Shangjing from danger, and she was awarded an exceptional reward.

This life....

Cui Lingyi was also somewhat helpless.

After much thought, I decided to focus on saving lives.

As for Feng Zhenzhu's wish to become famous all over the world, it can be achieved through other means.

As long as she runs the clinic well and expands the pharmaceutical factory, Feng Zhenzhu will naturally become famous.

Thinking of this, she felt at ease.

Unexpectedly, just after she asked Qingfeng to send the letter, she received a letter from Shen Du.

I don’t know if he heard any rumors, but the letter said that he would come to propose marriage when he returned and hoped that she would wait for him.

Cui Lingyi was stunned for a long time and did not make a decision.

She also didn't know what she should do if Shen Du really came to propose marriage again.

On this day, the weather was warm in the afternoon, and the lotus pond outside Fengbo Pavilion was sparkling.

——It is already autumn, and the lotus flowers in the pond are no longer as lush as before.

Drying up piece by piece.

The servants in the mansion were setting up a small boat and clearing out the withered lotus leaves inside, so as to prevent the desolate and dilapidated scene from affecting the view of the pavilion.

Buse came over with a cloak and put it on her.

"Miss, it's getting colder today. Winter is coming soon. You'd better not be exposed to the wind here. Doctor Feng said that your body cannot stand the cold."

Hearing this, Cui Lingyi retracted her gaze and glanced at her.

"You really listen to Sister Zhenzhu now, always calling her Doctor Feng, Doctor Feng, and always using her to pressure me..."

Bu Se did not refute, but his expression became more serious.

"What Doctor Feng said makes sense. As long as it is good for your health, I will naturally listen to her."

Looking at Bu Se who was so solemn, Cui Lingyi couldn't help but laugh.

She knew that the girl felt sorry for her.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, let's go back."

The two held hands and walked towards the backyard.

The housekeeper suddenly rushed over, and as soon as he saw the expression on his face, he knew that there was an uninvited guest.

When Cui Lingyi thought that it might be Qi Zhongxiu, her face darkened a little.

"Didn't I tell you? I won't be seeing any guests these days."

The butler paused, looking embarrassed.

"Miss, I'm afraid we can't refuse the person who came today?"

Cui Lingyi was suspicious, "Can't refuse outside? Who is it?"

The butler bowed and handed over a visiting card.

Bu Se took it and presented it in front of her.

Seeing the familiar but old handwriting on it, Cui Lingyi's fingertips shrank unconsciously.

The person who came turned out to be Shen Du’s biological father.

Shen Sheng, Marquis of Zhongguo, had retired many years ago and claimed to have been ill for a long time.

In her previous life, she had only met her father-in-law a few times.

It can be said that I have no understanding at all.

The reason why I know his handwriting is because his words are hung in the main hall of the Marquis's mansion.

Cui Lingyi really couldn't imagine why Shen Sheng, the Marquis of Zhongguo, would come to see her.

Still so cautious.

Deliver visiting cards to the door.

This clearly treats her as the proper head of the family.

As he is a marquis, how could she dare not see him?

Cui Lingyi hurriedly ordered the housekeeper to lead the people to the main hall.

"Bu Yun, go pick up some of our newly made fruits and make the best tea."

"Yes."

Not to mention Shen Sheng's identity as Marquis Zhongguo, just because they were a family in their previous life, she couldn't be impolite.

In the main hall, Marquis Zhongguo Shen Sheng was sitting in the guest seat.

She is around fifty years old and seems older than men of the same age.

There was a hint of loneliness and indifference in his expression.

But he was born with a good appearance.

The graying temples and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes not only did not turn him into an old man, but his temperament became more mellow and profound with the passage of time.

At this moment, he was holding the teacup in one hand and gently pinching the lid with the other hand.

Although he was in the posture of drinking tea, he was actually in a trance.

I don’t know what he is thinking about?

So much so that he didn't even notice Cui Lingyi when she walked in.

"Cui Lingyi meets the Marquis!"

It seemed that the sudden sound startled him.

The lid fell on the cup, making a crisp sound.

"Oh, you're here, hurry up and don't be so formal."

Shen Sheng said this and put the cup in his hand on the table beside him.

There was gradually more kindness in his eyes as he looked at her.

Cui Lingyi felt a little uncomfortable.

Apart from her uncle, this was the first time she saw this kind of look in another adult man.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis."

Cui Lingyi responded and sat obediently at one side.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a moment.

It can be seen that Shen Sheng seems to have something to say.

But he obviously hadn't figured out how to start.

Cui Lingyi was not sure why Shen Sheng came here suddenly.

She guessed that it was mostly because of Shen Du.

Before the Cui family was still around, Cui Zizhen was at least the Minister of Rites.

Although his official position was not high, he was still an official appointed by the imperial court.

After all, she is a daughter of an official family, and she is even engaged to Shen Du.

Mrs. Shen always has that attitude whenever she comes to visit.

Not to mention it nowadays.

The father and daughter broke up, and she went from being a noble lady in an official family to a merchant shop owner.

An orphan with no one to rely on.

I'm afraid it will be even harder to catch their eyes, right? !

Could it be that he knew that Shen Du would come to propose marriage after he returned, so he came here on purpose?

At this time, Bu Yun came in with some colorful snacks and fruits.

In order to ease the awkwardness and also to make Shen Sheng explain himself quickly, she pretended to stand up and greet him.

"My Lord, this is newly made by our maid. I wonder if it tastes good? If you don't mind, please try some."

Sure enough, once a sentence breaks the dullness, things become much easier to talk about.

Shen Sheng thanked him and put down the teacup in his hand again.

Finally, he coughed.

"Miss Cui, I came here today to discuss your marriage with Shen Du."
