In the courtyard.

When Shen Zhu returned to his small courtyard, he saw Yi'er and Shuer playing outside his house while carrying Ruanruan.

"Mother." Song Ziyi and Song Jingshu looked at Shen Zhu and shouted at the same time.

"You're back? Is everything all right? "

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Su Zongwen also raised his head, and his gaze that looked at Shen Zhu carried a trace of heartache.

If that Zhuer dared to bully Shen Zhu, he would definitely teach her a lesson!

"What can she do to me? Rest assured. " Shen Zhu thought back to how Zhuer was so angry, and could not help but sneer.

Seeing Shen Zhu walk over, Ruanruan held her two small hands and wanted Shen Zhu to hug her.

Shen Zhu reached out to hold her, and as he followed Su Zongwen into the room, he told him about the argument he had with Zhuer outside. In the end, he even mentioned about her thinking about marrying into the Su Family.

"Even now, this Zhuer still doesn't want to give up. In order to live or die, she must marry into Su Family as a concubine. I don't know what she is thinking."

When Su Zongwen heard this, the light in his eyes deepened and he said resolutely, "Yue Niang, don't worry. This time, I will definitely teach her a good lesson."

"It's fine, she's just a lunatic. I'm too lazy to bother with her, in case my hands get dirty."

Shen Zhu waved his hands, signalling to Su Zongwen not to take this matter to heart.

She knew in her heart that Su Zongwen didn't have the slightest bit of respect for Zhuer.

"Yes."

A trace of ruthlessness flashed past Su Zongwen's eyes, but he didn't think that way in his heart.

Shen Zhu was a woman that he had pampered at the tip of his heart, she was not someone that he could casually touch! Otherwise, she would have to pay a painful price so that she wouldn't dare to have another chance.

Since Zhuer could not remember the pain of losing her hand, then let's see how it goes for her this time!

Shen Zhu didn't know what Su Zongwen was planning, and playing with Ruanruan who was in his arms, he was thinking about what it was better to cook for dinner.

Su Zongwen raised his head and looked at the sky, "Yue Niang, I will be back in a while."

Shen Zhu turned his back to the man and waved goodbye.

Seeing that, Su Zongwen smiled lovingly, can't she just watch him wave goodbye?

The night gradually darkened.

Shen Zhu thought that today, he brought two fish out from home, and brought one for dinner, and the other one was to make fish ice, in such a cold weather, the fish meat would be cooked and left outside for the night, and tomorrow he could eat fish jelly.

She looked at the fish in her hand for a while. She planned to make it into a Red Braised Fish and cook two more dishes.

Two fishes going to scale, opening up and washing up were usually done with Su Zongwen's help. After he finished all of these, he would bring Ruanruan along, and leave the rest to Shen Zhu.

Today, only Shen Zhu himself had come.

She endured the fishy smell by slicing five or six times on each side of the body with a knife before adding salt and cooking wine to marinate them for around half an hour. Then, she sliced the garlic and ginger, chopped the scallions and dried chili into pieces, started the cooking process, and poured oil into the wok.

After the oil was heated, he poured the spring onion, ginger, garlic and chilli into the pot to stir-fry. When the fragrance had overflowed, he could place the fish in the pot with appropriate amount of water. In the end, he added soy sauce and a little salt.

After boiling for a while, he let the soup seep into the meat and poured the remaining sauce from the wok onto the fish. He fished out a plate of Red Braised Fish and sprinkled it with green onions; it was extremely tempting.

After that, she cooked some cabbage, some spicy potato chips, and a soup. Dinner was settled just like that.

When Su Zongwen returned, it was just time for dinner.

"We'll have fish jelly for lunch tomorrow, okay?"

Shen Zhu left the majority of the fish left in the kitchen and picked up a small portion to place on the table, he also mentioned about tomorrow's lunch.

"Mother, what is fish ice?" Song Jingshu asked curiously.

"Oh, fish frost, that's …"

Shen Zhu originally wanted to say that it was something like jelly, but when he thought about it, there was no jelly in this era, so he suddenly felt a headache trying to explain it.

"The fish jelly is a kind of springy and sparkling dish. However, when it enters your mouth, it immediately dissolves."

She thought about it for a moment and decided it would be easier to explain the children.

"Eating it and it melts?" Song Jingshu seemed to understand a little: "Is it like Snowflake?"

The snow, she thought, would melt in her hands.

"More or less, but the snow doesn't taste good. The fish jelly tastes really good."

"Shuer likes all the dishes made by the Mother. Shuer wants to eat the fish jelly!" Sung

Jingshu said excitedly, his face full of anticipation, waiting for the fish frozen at noon tomorrow.

"Yi'er also wants to eat, likes the dishes made by Mother." Song Ziyi also agreed. After he finished speaking, he felt that his tone was a bit coquettish, so he coughed twice and picked up his little front.

Su Zongwen naturally didn't have any objections, it didn't matter if he had heard of it before, as far as he was concerned, as long as it was something Shen Zhu had cooked, it would all be delicious.

After a lively meal, the group took turns to wash up before going to bed early.

Presumably, he had been worrying about a lot of things these two days. Shen Zhu slept exceptionally well tonight, so he didn't notice that the man who slept by his side in the middle of the night had quietly got up and left the room.

The night wind was blowing heavily.

A half-moon hanging in midair, faintly covered by a mass of dark clouds, faintly revealed a bright light. Only a black figure agilely jumped into Zhuer's room, and after a short while, the figure came out again, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Early the next morning, a scream came from Zhuer's courtyard.

Once he entered the courtyard, Zhuer's eyes widened as she looked at her reflection in the mirror in fear.

She woke up early to find that her entire body was covered with red rash. Not only that, she felt extremely itchy all over.

The woman scratched a few times, then raised her hand to touch her own face. Her expression changed as she ran out of bed and ran towards the bronze mirror. The same was true for her face!

How could she see anyone with her appearance?

Very quickly, the matter of Zhuer's entire body having a red rash, spread around the manor.

In an instant, the entire manor was filled with discussions. Zhuer has received her retribution. Look at the red rash on her face, it is said that it is contagious. "

"Hmph, she deserved it for being so shameless."

"Yeah, luckily we don't live with her."

"Who lived with her? Oh, yes, Jane! "

"Aiya, what nonsense are you spouting? "In any case, Zhen`er came along with little gongzi, so she has long since begged for mercy and moved in the vicinity of little gongzi."

"None of us will go."

"Look for Uncle Chen …"

Zhuer was afraid when he heard their evaluation, but he was even more afraid if Uncle Chen threw her out!

She quickly wrapped herself up tightly and secretly ran to the east yard to find Meier.

"Aunt, Miss Zhuer is here." When Xiao Li came in to report, Meier was sitting at the dressing table combing her hair. Hearing what she said, her hands paused.

"Why is she here at this time?" Meier combed his hair unblinkingly, his expression showing slight displeasure.

"Miss Zhuer said that she wanted to see Aunt." Xiao Li lowered his head and replied.

When Meier heard this, a strange feeling welled up in his heart. She had naturally heard of the things that the Zhuang Zi had passed down to her.

If Zhuer contracted some kind of evil disease, it would be bad for him to spread it to her at that time.

"Just tell her that I have something important to discuss with Eldest Young Master. I won't allow you to see her today." Meier put down the wooden brush in his hand, tidied up his clothes, and stood up.

"Yes, Aunt. This servant will be returning to Miss Zhuer now." Xiao Li responded as he retreated towards the door.

"Wait." Meier suddenly called out to her as though he had thought of something.

"Does Aunt have any other orders?" Xiao Li stopped in his tracks.
