Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 278 Hu Meiren: Xu Lincheng's Mount?
Xianyang, Zhangtai Palace.

Ying Zheng also received fine salt.

Because fine salt is different from items like the curved plow, Xu Lin even wrote a letter specifically to Ying Zheng.

In his letter, Xu Lin said that the production method of fine salt was more complicated and it was a consumable, unlike things such as the curved plow and the high-speed waterwheel. Therefore, he planned to produce fine salt on a small scale first, and then mass-produce it after the world was unified, so as to improve people's livelihood!

After reading it, Ying Zheng nodded.

After confirming that Ganquan Palace already had fine salt, Ying Zheng gave his fine salt to the cook.

……

Hu Mansion, on the outskirts of Xianyang.

The dignified and gentle Madam Hu also received fine salt.

Upon learning that fine salt is healthier than coarse salt, Mrs. Hu bowed slightly to express her gratitude.

Then he saw the maid from Zilan Pavilion out of the mansion.

After the maids of Zilan Pavilion had gone far away, Madam Hu, dressed in a dark green dress, returned to her study.

She has a very light palate and usually doesn't add any seasonings when cooking. She also uses very little coarse salt. I wonder how this fine salt tastes?

Puzzled, Madam Hu rolled up her sleeves, cooked a bowl of green vegetables, and then sprinkled some fine salt, like snowflakes, into it.

After mixing well, Madam Hu opened her mouth slightly and tasted the greens.

The purity of the fine salt instantly brightened her beautiful eyes.

"As expected of the master's invention!"

Madam Hu thought to herself.

Then he took a sip of weak tea.

Not only did she have a small appetite, but she also ate very elegantly, and she was in no way inferior to Empress Dowager Zhao Ji!

……

Xin Zilanxuan.

Xu Lin, Zi Nu, and Nong Yu were also eating.

Xu Lin sat down next to Zi Nu, and Nong Yu sat down opposite Xu Lin.

The elegant Nongyu ate with grace, not only chewing with her mouth closed, but also refraining from speaking until she swallowed.

Zi Nu chose to cover her mouth with her hand when she spoke.

Xu Lin was very satisfied with this!

She is worthy of being the woman he likes!
……

After a stick of incense.

Xu Lin, having eaten and drunk his fill, couldn't help but burp.

Seeing this, Nongyu smiled and took the leftover food out.

"Madam, have you lost weight recently?"

After Nongyu walked away, Xu Lin looked at Zi Nu and asked.

Zi Nu had a very slender waist, and her breasts seemed to have shrunk a bit compared to before.

He had just rested with his head on Zi Nu's jade-like legs, and he felt a little uncomfortable!
"Maybe."

Zi Nu asked uncertainly.

She didn't intentionally lose weight, after all, she wasn't fat when she was in Xinzheng, but for some reason, she has had a poor appetite recently.

Maybe it's because it's too hot?
"Madam, you can't lose any more weight."

Xu Lin said seriously.

After he finished speaking, he placed his hand on Zi Nu's leg.

"Why?"

Zi Nu smiled charmingly.

Xu Lin's hands are big and warm, and she has gradually gotten used to being taken advantage of by him!

"Because being too thin makes you more prone to illness!"

Xu Lin explained in a gentle voice.

Then he poured a bowl of boiled water for Zi Nu.

"it is good."

"The little lady knows."

Zi Nu was taken aback upon hearing this, then nodded.

Xu Lin's sudden concern surprised her.

After saying that, she took the teacup with both hands and drank a large mouthful of boiled water.

After chatting for a while, Xu Lin suddenly stood up and left Xin Zilanxuan.

Not long after leaving Xin Zilanxuan, he heard that Hu Meiren had also moved out.

Upon learning of this, Xu Lin did not go home, but instead went to Hu Meiren's residence.

It's been a long time since I've seen Hu Meiren. I wonder if she's lost weight or gained weight recently?
Before long, Xu Lin arrived at Hu Meiren's residence as he had hoped.

Hu Meiren's residence was not far from Mingzhu Mansion and was easy to find.

The plaque above the door of Hu Meiren's residence reads "Yan Mansion".

When Xu Lin knocked on the door, Hu Meiren was putting on makeup.

Hu Meiren was completely different from her sister, Madam Hu; she loved wearing makeup.

She wrote the words "Yan Mansion" on the door plaque to distinguish it from her sister's "Hu Mansion".

'Yan' is the name of Hu Meiren.

"Who is it?"

Hearing this, Hu Meiren asked in confusion.

Then, putting down her cosmetics, she strode towards the wooden door with her long legs.

The wooden door creaked open.

Upon seeing that the visitor was Xu Lin, Hu Meiren's beautiful eyes trembled slightly, and then she invited Xu Lin to the study.

"Sir, what brings you here?"

After taking her seat, Hu Meiren asked curiously.

She hasn't gained or lost weight recently; her legs are still the same length as before, and her feet are still as restless as before!

As soon as she finished speaking, Hu Meiren took off her shoes and deliberately put her feet on Xu Lin's lap.

"I heard you moved out too, so I came to check it out."

Xu Lin answered.

Then he looked around.

Although there was a lot of stuff, Hu Meiren packed it quite well.

"Ji-eun didn't come out with you?"

After a few breaths, Xu Lin asked casually.

Although Ji-eun wasn't in the original story, he had a pretty good impression of her!

"She went to buy groceries."

Hu Meiren said.

Then, with a soft hum, he launched an attack on Xu Lin.

She was slightly dissatisfied that Xu Lin immediately asked about Zhi En instead of showing any concern for her.

Seeing this, Xu Lin smiled, took out a jar of fine salt from his storage space, and placed it on the table.

"What is this?"

Hu Meiren leaned forward and asked, puzzled.

Fine salt.

Xu Lin used his hand as a pillow and replied.

"Your new invention?"

Hu Meiren's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"It is."

Xu Lin nodded.

"Do you enjoy horseback riding, sir?"

Hu Meiren slowly rolled up Xu Lin's clothes.

"Fortunately."

Xu Lin answered.

"I've been really into it lately!"

Hu Meiren pursed her red lips, her allure flowing like water.

Before Xu Lin could respond, she began to roam freely.

……

The next day.

Xu Lin slept until the afternoon.

After a good night's sleep, Xu Lin washed up briefly, ate something, and left the Yan residence.

Hu Meiren wanted to see Xu Lin off, but her fair legs were trembling so badly that she was willing but unable to do so.

Ji-eun, with her long hair tied up high, wanted to give Xu-lin a gift, but Xu-lin refused.

Xu Lin is still in a state of enlightenment, so he doesn't need a woman to deliver things to him.

Hu Meiren and Zhi En both liked his newly invented fine salt, especially Zhi En.

The appearance of fine salt made Ji-eun admire Heo-rim even more.

When Xu Lin returned to the Imperial Preceptor's residence, Li Ji and the others were taking a midday rest.

Before marrying Xu Lin, Li Ji and the others never took a midday nap. After marrying Xu Lin, they were all subtly influenced by him and developed the habit of taking a midday nap.

The mature and elegant Jingni was a light sleeper. When she sensed someone coming in, she immediately sat up on the soft couch.

She had just placed her hand on the sword beside her when she heard Yingge and Xu Lin's voices from outside.

"Sir, you're finally back."

Parrot said.

She may appear more sexy than cute, but her voice is as melodious as a silver bell.

Yingge's sexiness is different from that of Mingzhu, Hu Meiren, and Zinu.

Yingge was dressed conservatively, but because of her extremely full breasts and youthful face, she exuded a different kind of sexiness.

“Miss Rong wrote you a letter last night.”

"The parrot continued."

After speaking, she took out Duanmu Rong's letter from her sleeve and handed it to Xu Lin.

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin's brows furrowed slightly, and he then focused his gaze on the contents of the letter.

This was the first time Duanmu Rong had written to him since he had known her. He wondered what had happened.

Upon seeing Duanmu Rong's letter stating that her master had recently started staying up late again to write books and was coughing incessantly, Xu Lin frowned deeply.

After a moment's thought, Xu Lin told Yingge to go and rest.

After Yingge walked away, Xu Lin went to his bedroom.

"What happened?"

"Could it be related to her master, Mr. Nian Duan?"

The mature and elegant Jing Ni walked towards Xu Lin, helped him take off his coat, and asked with her bright, beautiful eyes.
