Ever since Shen Yijia obtained this soft whip, Song Jingchen had told her how to use it a few times, and she had waved it at the tree stump a few times.
She had been suffering from having no one to practice with. Now that she had a rare opportunity, she naturally wouldn’t let it end easily.
Every time Xiao Ruoshui wanted to stop, Shen Yijia would deliberately make a face at her and provoke her. Xiao Ruoshui’s entire arm had gone numb, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.
Song Jingchen could tell what Shen Yijia was thinking and rubbed his forehead helplessly.
After a few moves, Shen Yijia realized that Xiao Ruoshui was not as skilled as she seemed. She was extremely bored.
!!
When Xiao Ruoshui swung her whip over, she turned it around and wrapped it tightly around Xiao Ruoshui.
She easily pulled the exhausted Xiao Ruoshui in front of her. When she met Xiao Ruoshui’s terrified eyes, Shen Yijia blinked and pulled hard, causing Xiao Ruoshui’s whip to fall from her hand.
However, this was not the end. Xiao Ruoshui staggered from the pull. Before she could stabilize herself, she felt a pain in her abdomen and was sent flying.
The anxious Fan Mingyuan saw this scene and subconsciously ran over to catch her.
Even so, Xiao Ruoshui cried from the pain.
Shen Yijia retracted her foot and compared the two soft whips in her hand. She thought to herself that the one her husband gave her was better. She pursed her lips and threw Xiao Luoshui’s soft whip to the ground in disdain.
She turned around and walked to Song Jingchen’s side. “Have I improved?”
Song Jingchen found it funny and nodded. “Yes.”
Shen Yijia was happy. Without looking at the two people who had just gotten up, she picked up Song Jingchen and the chair and carried him into the carriage.
Then, she sat on the shaft of the carriage and waved the horse whip gently. The carriage started to move.
Fan Mingyuan quickly pulled Xiao Ruoshui away.
Xiao Ruoshui jumped on the spot and accidentally tugged at her wound. She gritted her teeth in pain and pointed angrily in the direction where the carriage had left. “So she’s the woman Brother Chen married?”
Was that really a woman? She could pick up a big man alone.
Fan Mingyuan had already experienced Shen Yijia’s strength, so he was not too surprised.
When he heard how Xiao Ruoshui addressed Shen Yijia, he rubbed his forehead weakly. He knew Xiao Ruoshui’s personality very well. She was a spoiled lady.
After suffering at the hands of Young Madam today, she probably wouldn’t be able to stop for a long time.
“Is she?” Xiao Ruoshui was very dissatisfied with Fan Mingyuan for not answering her. She pouted and asked again.
Fan Mingyuan nodded in resignation. “Yes, yes. Eldest Young Master is already married. I think you should…”
He did not dare to say that it was best not to provoke Shen Yijia because he knew that if he said that, Xiao Ruoshui would never stop.
“Hmph, so what if he’s married? As long as Brother Chen is willing, he can still divorce her…” At this point, Xiao Ruoshui lowered her head.
She had known Song Jingchen since she was young. This was the first time she had seen him treat a woman so gently.
Fan Mingyuan could not bear to see her like this.
He reached out to rub her head to comfort her like he did when she was young. However, he remembered that they were no longer children, so he retracted his hand.
A bitter smile touched his lips.
Shopkeeper w.a.n.g, who had witnessed the farce outside, was also a little dazed. He did not expect Young Madam to be so powerful.
Suddenly thinking of something, he slapped his forehead and muttered in frustration, “Young Lady Shen’s husband is Eldest Young Master. Doesn’t that mean that those ornaments were all made by Eldest Young Master?”
Thinking of how he felt smug after selling it for fifty taels of silver, Shopkeeper w.a.n.g really wanted to slap himself.
After returning home, Shen Yijia carried Song Jingchen out of the carriage and drove the carriage to the backyard.
She unloaded the carriage and placed it in a shed that had been specially built for it. She also fed the horse some gra.s.s.
It was not until Lin Shao and the other children came over to ask her how the search for the shop was going that Shen Yijia realized that she had been here for more than 15 minutes.
She told them about the shop. She also told them that she planned to open for business within the next two days.
She had no concept of choosing a date for opening a store. She felt that it was fine as long as everything was ready.
When Lin Shao heard that the shop would open soon, he was overjoyed.
“Then, let’s go make some more.” With that, Lin Shao and the others ran off.
Due to the lack of materials, the workshop had yet to start construction. During this period of time, Madam Li had been the one leading the small operations.
It was definitely impossible to pick only the wild flowers in the village. She had to get people to collect flowers everywhere tomorrow. As for the seedlings in the flower field, it was impossible to harvest them so soon.
Shen Yijia was thinking about something and unknowingly arrived at the door.
She paused. She couldn’t tell how she felt, but she felt a little depressed. She didn’t want to see Song Jingchen for the time being.
She didn’t understand his past, and Song Jingchen didn’t know her past either. She was an anomaly. She transmigrated here by accident and became Song Jingchen’s wife.
Although Shen Yijia was usually heartless, she understood that she was different from others, be it her special physique or her living environment in her previous life.
Shen Yijia was shocked by her sudden sentimentality. Before she could make her next move, the door was suddenly opened from the inside.
Shen Yijia wanted to hide guiltily. Song Jingchen sat in the wheelchair and saw the expression on Shen Yijia’s face. He sighed helplessly. “Come in.”
“Oh!” Shen Yijia walked in meekly and lowered her head without saying anything.
Song Jingchen closed the door and stood up from the wheelchair. He took a few steps to Shen Yijia and stopped a step away from her.
Suddenly, a shadow fell in front of her. Shen Yijia looked up curiously.
Song Jingchen reached out and rubbed her head. He said in a low voice, “I’ve never treated another woman like this.”
“Huh?” Shen Yijia did not react for a moment.
Song Jingchen took her hand again. “I’ve never held another woman’s hand before.”
Shen Yijia was speechless.
Seeing her in a daze, Song Jingchen’s lips curled up and he took a deep breath.
He placed his hands on Shen Yijia’s shoulders and slowly lowered his head to plant a kiss on the corner of her lips.
Shen Yijia was stunned for a moment, and her face turned red.
Song Jingchen didn’t let her off. He reached out and gently rubbed the corner of Shen Yijia’s lips with his thumb. He looked straight into her eyes and said hoa.r.s.ely, “I’ve never kissed another woman.”
Song Jingchen thought that he was calm, but he didn’t know that his reddened earlobes had already betrayed him.
Shen Yijia didn’t dare to look Song Jingchen in the eye for a moment. She glanced around and accidentally discovered this.
She suddenly stopped being nervous. She blinked and said in surprise, “Hubby, your ears are so red!”
Song Jingchen was speechless.
He was indeed thinking too much when he was worried that she would be unhappy. He was simply afraid that she would overthink, but it seemed that any further explanations would be unnecessary.
