Chen Wu instantly thought of that afternoon when she was forced into a corner, and her face turned red.

"You also said that when you asked me that, I couldn't think of anything else except you."

Lu Xuan...

Looking at her little face, the corners of his mouth inexplicably curled up slightly, but it quickly disappeared.

His eyes fixed on her: "Now, do you remember?"

Chen Wu suddenly remembered that this Zhou Zhiqing also existed in the novel. He was an educated youth who went to the countryside from a big city. He was interested in "her" and was attracted by her beauty. He pestered "her" for a long time.

When "she" reached the marriageable age, the Shen family wanted to sell her for a high price. Since Zhou Zhiqing was willing, the Shen family had no objection, but they asked for a betrothal gift of 40 yuan. Zhou Huai wrote a letter to his parents in the city. The Zhou family was not willing to let their son marry a rural girl in the countryside, let alone a betrothal gift of 40 yuan, not even 4 yuan.

The Shen family asked for money, but the Zhou family looked down on rural girls and refused to give them any money.

Zhou Huai took another leave to go back and visit his relatives.

Just at this moment, a matchmaker came to her and Lu Xuan to propose a deal. The Lu family was willing to pay fifty yuan, and the Shen family agreed without even thinking about it.

As for Shen Wu's thoughts, no one asked her, whether it was Zhou Huai, the Lu family, or the Shen family itself.

Knowing that this man was determined to get to the bottom of things, Shen Wu picked out some of the details and told him, "That's all. Nothing more."

Lu Xuan is from the village.

Adults looked down on those educated youth who talked about knowledge all the time and could not work, but many young people in the village liked them.

Some are willing to break up with their families and marry scholars.

Although the man just now was thin, he had a good appearance and was obviously a scholar from the city.

Lu Xuan kicked the dirt on the road and said, "He likes you. What about you? Have you ever liked him?"

Shen Wu looked at him.

Leaning closer to him: "Are you jealous?"

Lu Xuan frowned, "Will I be jealous of him?"

"You know whether I'm jealous or not."

At this moment, a donkey cart came and saw Chen Wu and Lu Xuan from a distance and called out, "Lu Xuan!"

"Are you going back to the village?"

Lu Xuan: "Yes."

The old man driving the cart waited for them to get on and said, "It's a bit hot. In the early years, some of the educated youth who had just gone to the countryside fainted in the fields."

It seems that the news of my fainting has spread throughout the village.

Shen Wu smiled awkwardly.

Lu Xuan would chat with the old man about things in the fields from time to time. Chen Wu didn't know, so she didn't say anything. She sat on the ox cart, holding Lu Xuan's hand, and drawing circles on his palm with her fingers.

He took the time to whisper, "I don't like him, Third Brother, I still like you."

The donkey cart ran over an uneven spot and jolted.

Something seemed to explode in Lu Xuan's mind, and he held her restless fingers tightly with his backhand.

When the donkey cart arrived at Lu's house.

Chen Wu asked the old man to wait for a moment, but the old man was confused and thought she had something to do.

Shen Wu grabbed a few White Rabbit candies and said, "This, I'll take home for the younger generation to eat."

Sugar is a good thing, and White Rabbit Milk Candy is an even better thing. Most farmers are reluctant to buy it, and the old man would even refuse it.

"If you hadn't happened to be passing by, my third brother and I would still be waiting. Please don't refuse."

The old man smiled when he heard this and said to Lu Xuan, "Your wife is too polite."

But after receiving the candy, she was still happy. Lu Xuan's wife is not good at work, but she knows how to behave.

She is worthy of being Lu Xuan’s wife.

As soon as the old man left, Shen Wu turned around and saw a pair of eyes staring at her in the yard.

Staring at her quietly.

Although calm, people are already getting angry.

Chen Wu smiled: "Mother."

Old Lady Lu was like a firecracker that had been set on fire. "You... you can't do the work! You didn't get any work points, and you even delayed the third child's work."

"He was even hospitalized!"

“It still costs money!”

"You're not allowed to eat today!"

Shen Wu said: "Mom, if I don't eat, I will get sick again and have to go to the hospital, which will cost money."

Old Mrs. Lu almost fainted from anger.

My heart aches, my stomach aches, and my whole body aches.

"Oh, I'm not marrying a daughter-in-law, I'm marrying a disaster..." As he said this, he sat down on the ground, looking like he was throwing a tantrum.

Lu Xuan frowned and looked at Chen Wu: "Go back to the room and rest first."

After suffering from heatstroke, she felt dizzy and her stomach was uncomfortable. It felt like something was stuck in her throat. She wanted to vomit but couldn't. Shen Wu didn't have the energy to argue with Old Lady Lu.

He nodded and went into the house.

Seeing this, Old Lady Lu became even angrier, and her anger was directed at Lu Xuan: "You are just spoiling her!"

…

Lu Xuan silently helped the man up.

When Old Lady Lu's daughter-in-law really left, she didn't sit on the ground anymore. Instead, she stood up and started to complain to Lu Xuan about how difficult it was to raise him, and how he had forgotten his mother now that he had a wife.

One knows one's own mother well. Lu Xuan said in a calm tone, "So, mother, do you think I should treat her badly?"

"She said that if I treat her badly, she won't live with me."

Old Lady Lu’s crying stopped abruptly: “She dares!”

Thinking about Chen Wu's appearance again, she seemed really brave!

She looks like a vixen. If she really leaves her son, she won't have trouble finding a husband...

Old Mrs. Lu felt very anxious for a moment.

Chen Wu returned to the room and half-lay on the bed to rest.

Not long after, Lu Xuan came back.

Shen Wu propped up her chin and looked at Lu Xuan: "Third brother."

Lu Xuan was cleaning the house. Hearing this, he looked at her and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Shen Wu nodded and shook her head.

Lu Xuan peeled a piece of candy for her and handed it to her mouth.
