I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating

Second Manager You looked at the young master sitting opposite him and hesitated.

“There seems to be something wrong with the accounts of these two places.” Qin Minghong, who could not sit still, pointed at a number on the account book and frowned slightly as he asked in a low voice.

“Young Master, you were the one who requested for the extra money here,” Second Manager You explained carefully. “That day, when Miss Ji was making spicy crabs, didn’t you ask for two jars of glutinous rice wine to bring back?”

!!

Only then did Qin Minghong remember. “Yes.”

Second Manager You silently lowered his head and looked at his toes. He frowned awkwardly and hesitated again and again before asking, “Young Master, do you like Ah Tao?”

“Yes.” To Second Manager You’s surprise, Qin Minghong admitted it without hesitation.

He admitted it so straightforwardly that Second Manager You did not know what to do.

“But Young Master, Ah Tao is already married. Moreover, her relationship with Third Brother Shen is very good.” After much deliberation, Second Manager You could not help but persuade him. “Besides, Young Master, with your handsome and outstanding appearance and rich family background, how can you not find a beautiful marriage that belongs to you?”

“Second Manager You.” Qin Minghong suddenly gathered the ledger in front of him and looked at him intently. He smiled faintly. “Do you think Shen Yao is worthy of Ah Tao? Not to mention his family background, he’s a cripple. Do you think he can bring Ah Tao happiness?”

“Young Master, I think your way of thinking is wrong.” Second Manager You quickly shook his head and denied. “When it comes to relationships, what does so called worthiness matter? When two people are together, the most important thing is to like each other!”

“I admit that I didn’t expect them to be married.” Qin Minghong smiled nonchalantly. “But I think it’s not too late to start the competition.”

Since he was 15 years old, he did not lack maids to warm his bed.

It was just that all these years, he had never met anyone who could move his heart.

However, when Ji Zhao, who was dressed as a man, appeared in front of him, Qin Minghong knew that his fate had arrived.

Moreover, he had already asked around. Ah Tao and Shen Yao had never consummated their marriage!

They were just husband and wife in name.

Since they hadn’t reached the point where everything was done, why didn’t he give himself a chance to give it a try?

Second Manager You felt that his young master’s idea was very dangerous, but he didn’t know how to persuade him.

At 3:15 pm, the Shen family rushed to the small shop beside the Hongxing Restaurant.

Ji Zhao impatiently took out the key and successfully unlocked the rusty copper lock. Finally, she gently pushed open the door.

“One, two, three…”

The number of tables and chairs in front of them could be seen at a glance.

On the left, one step away from the door, was a waist-high counter.

An abacus, ink, paper, and inkstone were neatly placed on the counter.

“Although this shop is a little small, the good thing is that there are all kinds of things inside.” Eldest Brother Shen looked around the shop and reached out his fingers to touch the table. “And there’s no dust on the table. I think Brother You must have asked someone to clean it. I have to thank him personally tomorrow!”

“Eldest Brother Shen, there’s no need to thank me.” Second Manager You, who happened to walk in, said happily, “Come on, let’s have a good drink tomorrow!”

“Alright!”

Eldest Brother Shen and Second Manager You had been friends for many years. The two of them looked at each other and laughed.

“Second Brother You.” Shen Yao and Ji Zhao greeted him with a smile before continuing to study the shop in front of them.

Shen Yao picked up a brush and paper and quickly drew a full picture of the shop. He handed it to Ji Zhao. “See if there’s anything that needs to be changed. Mark it on the paper.”

“Alright!” Ji Zhao stared at the paper and silently gave a thumbs up.

He was indeed an influential figure who would become the Chief Grand Secretary who would be well-versed in both civil and military matters!

Shen Yao’s writing and paintings were exceptionally outstanding!

However, Ji Zhao was also very curious. Where did Shen Yao learn from to be able to cultivate such exquisite painting skills?

Ji Zhao shook her head and threw all the messy thoughts in her mind to the back of her mind. Then, she seriously made some changes.

In the end, she handed the blueprint to Shen Yao in satisfaction and did not forget to pat his shoulder. She pretended to be sincere and said, “This is the first crystallization of our hard work!”

“Mm.” Shen Yao’s lips curled up gently. He raised his hand and caressed her face. His eyes were serious as he promised, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely protect the first crystallization of our hard work.”

“I believe you!”

Ji Zhao smiled sweetly and even tiptoed to kiss his face.

This scene was seen by Qin Minghong, who just happened to arrive at the moment.

“Ahem.” He deliberately coughed twice, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.

“Young Master?”

“I was about to leave when I heard the commotion here, so I specially came to take a look,” Qin Minghong explained concisely. Finally, his gaze landed on Ji Zhao’s face, and he gently smiled. “Ah Tao, can we talk in private?”

“I want to talk to you about Ji Huai.” Before she could refuse, Qin Minghong immediately said, “If you’re free now, can we talk in private? I believe Third Young Master Shen won’t refuse, right?”

Shen Yao did not expect Qin Minghong’s methods to improve. What he said just now was simply a trap for him.

Ji Zhao subconsciously looked at Shen Yao. Only then did he realize that Shen Yao’s face had become very pale and weak. It was extremely ugly.

In the end, he collapsed on the table and fell unconscious.

“Quick! Send him to the nearest clinic!” Without another word, Eldest Brother Shen carried his third brother on his back. Ji Zhao hurriedly followed!

Looking at Ji Zhao’s hasty back, Qin Minghong lowered his eyes to hide the displeasure in them.

How could a sickly person like Shen Yao give Ah Tao happiness?

Unknowingly, it was already dusk.

“Shen Yao? Shen Yao? Are you alright?” Ji Zhao asked anxiously, “Physician, what exactly is going on?”

“Calm down,” the physician said as he wrote the prescription. “The patient just now had a lot of frustration in his body. The internal heat in his kidneys is too strong, so he suddenly had a heat stroke.”

...

“But isn’t it already August? The weather has already returned to normal.”

“During the early autumn, there are all kinds of typhoid fevers. The factors that cause the patient’s liver to flare up are not completely external factors.”

“Then does my husband have any taboos regarding food in the future?” Ji Zhao frowned and asked nervously.
