Everyone in Chang'an City knows that General Xiao Ce is a piece of ice that can't hold any heat - he is as decisive as a sharp edge on the battlefield, his face is expressionless in the court, and he doesn't even dare to take a heavy step when walking in the palace. He has always hidden in his heart the girl Bai Yueguang who has been looking for ten years.
Until a marriage proposal was given, and Shen Qingshu, the eldest daughter of the richest merchant in the country, Silk Village Shen, was presented to him.
It is said that this Miss Shen is as gentle as the water in the south of the Yangtze River, but she can revive a dying business in a few words. The business of the Shen family's silk and satin shop is getting more and more prosperous under her hands!
On the wedding day, Xiao Ce looked at the submissive woman in front of him and said in a cold voice: "Everyone should perform their own duties and do not interfere with each other."
Shen Qingshu pulled back his quilt and saluted with a warm smile: "General, don't worry, Qingshu understands."
At first, everyone in the Tianjiang Mansion was waiting to see how the merchant's daughter would leave in embarrassment - after all, the rules of the General Mansion were strict, and the general himself was as cold as ice.
But gradually it was discovered that Miss Shen not only took care of the house's internal affairs in an orderly manner, but also quietly used her own business to pay for the government's treasury deficit. Not only could she calculate every detail in the account books, but she also dared to hold up her skirt and stand in front of Xiao Ce when he was assassinated, with eyes as sharp as knives.
Xiao Ce looked at the woman checking the accounts under the lamp, with ink marks on her fingertips. For the first time, she felt that the desertedness of the mansion seemed to be warmed by something quietly.
He thought that she only wanted to live a stable life, but he didn't know that she had already included him in her "survival manual"; she thought that this marriage was an exchange of interests, but late one night, she saw that there was a trace of tenderness in his eyes towards her that she was not aware of.
