    Family and relatives are different.

    家人是你无论走多远,心里始终牵挂的人。亲人,于你有恩是亲,袖手冷眼不管不问,那便是陌路人了。

    Shen Jie was an orphan since he was a child, and he was always close to Du Yaoyao.

    父母只管生不管养, she 和奶奶相依为命。

    从某种程度上来说, she 和沈阶比常人更在意有家人陪伴的温情。

    But the difference between Shen Jie and her is that he grew up eating the food of hundreds of families, strategizing in the officialdom, observing people’s opinions and understanding people’s minds many times better than her.

    he 是卖惨,或是真情流露,杜窈窈猜不准。可 he 的话的确戳 she 心窝,这副身子在外人看来也真娇弱。

    she 推推 he ,柔声道:“好了,过去了。这件事我也有错,以后会注意的。”

    Let’s just turn the page.

    The two of them went back to their room. Du Yaoyao thought of the sweet soup that was warm in the kitchen and called Yin Ye to bring it to her. By the way, she begged Shen Jie for a good deal.

    “宸王的事情是你处置的吗?”先问清楚,不告诉 he 奖励。

    Shen Jie raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

    “You won’t find another ‘patient’ to trick King Chen, will you?”

    The last time Shen Jie revealed his embarrassing experience, Du Yaoyao immediately thought of sexually transmitted diseases.

    “No,” Shen Jie smiled and tapped the tip of her nose, “How can Chu Xun not refuse anyone who comes?”

    “Yes, there is no shortage of women to be a prince.” Du Yaoyao nodded, curious, “Then how did you do it?”

    Shen Jie didn’t want to tell Du Yaoyao about the secrets of the palace, so he said vaguely: “Buy a woman who has been in love with him for a long time, just like that…” He held her waist and shook it from side to side twice.

    有过情事经验,杜窈窈秒懂,捂嘴道:“被……坐坏了?”

    “Yeah.”

    It was probably broken. Without modern and sophisticated medical surgeries, Chu Xun would have been disabled for the rest of his life.Sure enough, once the big boss takes action, he will know if there is any.Du Yaoyao secretly gave Shen Jie a thumbs up in her heart.

    “Where is the woman you bribed? Is she dead?” Chu Xun’s arrogant and willful personality was afraid that he would not spare the instigator.

    Shen Jie shook his head, “I won’t die.”

    Du Yaoyao looked at him in surprise, “Since that woman has been in good terms with Chu Xun for a long time, she must have been coerced and induced by you, right?”

    Shen Jie laughed, “Am I such a bad person?” He patiently explained, “We have a grudge, and the woman has been lurking for a long time.”

    “Oh.” Du Yaoyao pretended to be surprised.

    No wonder she interrogated her for so long. There are many women in Chu Xun in the book, but this incident never happened. He only brought up a scandal of having an affair with his concubine before his death, which made the emperor furious.

    Wait, concubine, she won’t die?Du Yaoyao was immediately shocked. Could it be a concubine from the harem?Moreover, Chu Xun’s enemy, who has been lurking for a long time, looks too much like the chess piece of Shen Jie and the prince!

    “What’s wrong?” Shen Jie noticed that Du Yaoyao was distracted.

    “It’s okay.” Du Yaoyao nodded his chest and said nonsensically, “I’m thinking it’s better for men to keep to themselves and not have so many grudges.”

    “I think so,” Shen Jie agreed, hinting with a smile, “I’ve always been very peaceful.”

    Du Yaoyao: “…”

    Based on your performance in the book, I can’t accept your words!

    When the sweet soup arrived, Du Yaoyao opened the porcelain lid. In the pottery pot, there was snow-white glutinous rice mixed with green lotus leaves. Purple sweet potato balls floated in the clear soup. She smelled it carefully. It was sweet with a hint of wine.

    This is what Du Yaoyao made after imitating the modern rice wine dessert.She is very convenient. She uses fresh glutinous rice, adds rice wine, adds some dried lotus leaves for color, and rolls some small purple sweet potato balls and throws them away.

    She put a bowl on the table and motioned to Shen Jie, “Try it?”

    Shen Jie was not in a hurry to move the ladle. Du Yaoyao was afraid that he would be as worried as last time, so she scooped up a ladle and swallowed it first.

    But Shen Jie’s attention was not on her, so he stood up and ordered Liu’er outside the door.

    “Go and get the snacks given by the East Palace today.”

    Liu’er glanced into the room in surprise and left silently.

    Du Yaoyao said happily: “The prince also gave you snacks.” As a boss, it is normal to reward your subordinates all year round.

    Shen Jie said calmly, “The princess made it herself.”

    “That’s a good thing!” Du Yaoyao knew that something that the prince could get his hands on must be a good thing.

    Liu’er brought a food box, which was decorated with intricate carvings and was extremely exquisite.

    “Open it and take a look.” Shen Jie said.

    Du Yaoyao obeyed and opened the lid of the box.

    On the bottom of the box covered with white silk, six golden and white plum blossom shortcakes lay quietly, with a wisp of milk mixed with the aroma of almonds hitting your nostrils.

    “The Crown Princess’s hands are so skillful.” She praised.

    “Yeah.” Shen Jie agreed and added, “It’s very thoughtful. It took a lot of effort to grind the almonds into powder.”

    Yinye, who was standing aside, changed his expression and raised his head to say something.

    Shen Jie glanced at him with a cold and stern look.

    Silver Leaf retreated angrily.

    Du Yaoyao was completely unaware, lowering her head and looking at the shortbread intently.

    She licked her lips and reached for it, “I’ll eat one first.”

    “This is almond cake.” Shen Jie reminded.

    “I smell it, it smells like almonds.” Du Yaoyao sniffed.Almonds are a good thing, but she used to be too poor to afford them.

    She took one and put it in her mouth, but Shen Jie snatched it away and said, “You are not suitable for eating this.”

    “What’s wrong?” Du Yaoyao was stunned and asked cautiously, “Are there any taboos?” For example, the things given by the emperor and prince can only be offered but not eaten.

    There was a hint of weirdness on Shen Jie’s face, and he smiled slightly, “Taboo, Yaoyao, I’m asking you if this is appropriate.”

    Du Yaoyao was really confused.He’s words and deeds are so unclear that she can’t figure it out.

    Her eyes rolled around a few times, and she was not allowed to eat the almond cake, which was not a royal taboo.Is it because of the original taboo?

    The original owner doesn’t eat almond cake, or is he allergic to almond cake?

    God, why would the author spend so much time focusing on such a trivial matter like his cannon fodder ex-wife?She can’t cover everything, predict the future, and think about remedial measures with shame.

    Shen Jie saw through Du Yaoyao’s embarrassment, smiled, pointed at Yinye, “You say it.”

    Yinye knelt down and complained: “Madam, you are allergic to almonds. If you eat them by mistake, you will get red bumps on your body. A year ago, because the cook at home made a plate of almond cheese, you… almost killed someone.”

    Boom——

    It’s not a big deal!

    She had an impression of killing the cook Du Yaoyao, but the specific reason was not mentioned in the book. She thought it was because the original owner was arrogant and domineering, but she didn’t expect it was because of Xing Xing.

    There was a lot of shouting and killing, but she said she had forgotten it at the moment, and the reason was unconvincing.

    Du Yaoyao rubbed her brows and said, “Okay, I remembered, you go down!”

    After taking away Yin Ye, she has to face Shen Jie, the god of plague, alone.

    Shen Jie held a porcelain ladle and slowly drank the sweet soup beside the table. He clicked his tongue and said with a smile: “It tastes good.”

    Calm as if nothing had happened.

    Du Yaoyao knew in her heart that he was waiting for an explanation from her.

    After sorting out her thoughts, Du Yaoyao decided to find another way to “confess”.

    She said: “Do you know that I had a severe fever last month? When I woke up from that time, I couldn’t remember many things.”

    “Yeah.” Shen Jie responded.That time she failed to seduce Song Xingkai and was poured cold water on her by her aunt. She had a fever and her whole person changed.

    He added to her, “Your temperament has also changed drastically, your physique has changed drastically, and your mind has become much clearer and smarter.”

    “What do you mean?” There was something in his words, and Du Yaoyao immediately glared.
