The next morning, at dawn, Jingzhe and Gu Yu came over to help Shen Miao get up. When they entered the room, they saw Shen Miao sleeping on the couch. The blanket was gone, and she was covered in a fox fur coat.
The two of them were shocked. When they left yesterday, they did not see such a coat. Where did this fox fur coat come from? Jingzhe woke Shen Miao up. When Shen Miao woke up, she looked at the fox fur coat in confusion.
Although the aftereffects of the plum wine were strong, just as the farmer’s wife said, it wouldn’t cause hangover. Shen did not feel dizzy when she woke up the next day, but she could not remember what happened last night at all. She didn’t even know why she insisted on staying in this room alone.
Gu Yu held the snow-white fox fur coat and said, “Miss, where did you get this fox fur coat?”
Shen Miao took the coat and shook her head.
“The boxes of clothes are all here. Miss, did you get too cold last night and took the coat out yourself?” Jingzhe asked tentatively, “But why do I feel like this is the first time I’ve seen this fox fur coat?”
They did not think of the possibility that someone might have snuck into the room because there were guards keeping watch outside. However, the appearance of this fox fur coat was too strange. Shen Miao said, “Take it and go out to ask the farmer if it’s his.”
When they brought the fox fur coat to ask the farmer, he shook his head and said, “I don’t have such a high quality fox fur coat.”
