Chapter 3

This time was around eight o'clock in later life. Normally, the villagers had no entertainment activities at night and went to bed early. But today, when the villagers heard what those young men were shouting, many of them came over to watch the fun.

The door of his house was broken, so the villagers who came to watch the fun lay down at the door and watched the two of them clean the house.

Cheng Yeran has been a star for so many years that he has long been accustomed to being watched by people. He can act naturally even when being watched during filming, let alone being watched by a group of "NPCs". He can still do what he is supposed to do.

However, he noticed that Shen Yuntang was uncomfortable and didn't want those people to see it. He was thinking in his heart, he is really a newcomer. He can't even stand being watched by several villagers, so how can he sing and dance naturally on the stage?

Just as he was about to say something, he heard two men at the door say, "It's so strange that she didn't cry or make a fuss about marrying a lazy guy. Could it be that she had fallen in love with this lazy guy a long time ago?"

"Otherwise she wouldn't have deliberately taken off all her clothes and crawled into the arms of a lazy guy. Maybe she's secretly happy now."

"Let's not disturb them here. Look how fast he cleans. He must want to clean up the house quickly so that he can drag the lazy guy to do that thing."

As the men spoke, they laughed obscenely from time to time, which made Shen Yuntang tremble all over with anger. He threw the broom in his hand to the ground and stared at them angrily.

The men were stunned for a moment. They said those words deliberately to humiliate Shen Yuntang, just to see this handsome boy get angry and cry. Shen Yuntang was a famous handsome guy in the village. He was usually very cute, and even more so when he got angry. If he cried, he would be absolutely stunning.

They became even more excited, "Cheng Yeran, your husband has such a bad temper. He dared to throw things at you on the first day after we got married. What will happen in the future?"

"You need to stand up and be disciplined now, or I will have to fall on your head in the future."

"Don't embarrass us men. Let him see how powerful you are. Don't let everyone think you are a henpecked man."

Shen Yuntang felt sick watching a group of men making a fuss. He hated these men in the village the most. They gossiped about other people's families all the time, or made a fuss and deliberately made others fight. They were like brainless monkeys and were disgusting.

In his previous life, he thought Xia Xiaowu was not that kind of person. Xia Xiaowu was a scholar, well-educated and well-mannered. They had met several times before they got married, and he treated him very gently, completely different from other men in the village.

After getting married, he discovered that Xia Xiaowu was no different from other people, and was even worse.

The same thing happened to him and Xia Xiaowu, except that the people who started the trouble were Xia Xiaowu's two brothers.

That time, he had just married Xia Xiaowu not long ago, and Xia Xiaowu had not yet fully revealed her true nature. She told him a joke, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The two elder brothers passed by and saw him laughing. They said that he was shameless and laughed like that outside on purpose to seduce others. They asked Xia Xiaowu to discipline him well and let him know that he had to listen to everyone in this family. If he was scared, he would be easier to control in the future.

Although Xia Xiaowu hesitated for a moment that time, he still hit him.

The scene from that time overlapped with the present one. He took two steps back in fear, especially when he saw Cheng Yeran really stood up straight and raised his hand. He instinctively shrank his neck and closed his eyes.

But Cheng Yeran's palm did not fall on him, but hit the door frame with a loud bang.

Cheng Yeran rested his hands on the door frame, leaned forward, and stared at the men in front of him with an oppressive look.

He usually had a gentle attitude, but when he got ruthless he was so scary that the fear deep in the hearts of those men was aroused and they retreated one after another.

They thought Cheng Yeran was going to hit them, but Cheng Yeran gave them a business-like smile and said, "Today's tour ends here. Please go back."

The men who were watching were stunned. After a few seconds of calm, one man spoke up, "We are telling you this for your own good. You have to discipline your new husband. If you don't discipline him, you won't be able to control him. People will laugh at you for being henpecked in the future."

"You are stepping on our door, please move aside." Cheng Yeran leaned over to lift the door panel that was slammed on the ground. Only then did everyone realize where they were standing and quickly jumped away.

Cheng Yeran lifted the door panel with both hands and swung it left and right, throwing the dirt all over the onlookers' faces. He continued to look at them with a business-like smile: "Oh, sorry, I didn't mean it, you won't blame me, right?"

The onlookers looked at him speechlessly. They wanted to get angry at this smiling face but couldn't, so they could only disperse.

When he returned to the house, he saw Shen Yuntang spreading hay on the bed. The original bedding on the bed had been thrown on the ground and placed with the garbage.

He had just looked at the bedding and threw it to the homeless man.

Talk about

I hate it so much that the cotton inside has gone bad and clumps together, and I can't get it clean no matter how many times I wash it.

No wonder Shen Yuntang threw them on the ground like garbage.

Cheng Yeran opened his suitcase, took out a blanket and threw it to Shen Yuntang: "Put this on the bed first, and go see if there are any quilts for sale tomorrow and buy one."

"It's not a market day recently. The market will be held on the 15th of this month. Then we can ride on Uncle Li's ox cart with the villagers." Shen Yuntang knew that Cheng Yeran rarely went out and he definitely didn't know how far the town was from here. He also didn't believe that Cheng Yeran would be willing to walk there by himself, so he would be the one who would be tired.

"The fifteenth of this month?" Cheng Yeran counted the days and there were still three days left: "That's fine. After all, the weather isn't too cold recently. We two big guys have high body temperatures, so we can squeeze together and get through it."

Shen Yuntang hesitated for a moment and asked him weakly: "Do you have money?"

"Money?" Cheng Yeran subconsciously wanted to take out his cell phone. He has been a celebrity for so many years and has saved hundreds of millions of dollars. As a rich second-generation and a big celebrity, this is the first time he has heard someone ask him this.

But he soon realized that the money Shen Yuntang was talking about might be ancient money.

He saw a small cabinet in the room. He walked over and opened it, and found a string of copper coins and two small pieces of silver inside, as well as a pile of scraps of paper that had been gnawed by mice.

He used one finger to pick out the string of copper coins, and then pinched out the two small pieces of silver, and shook them in the direction of Shen Yuntang: "Is this enough?"

Shen Yuntang counted and found that there were about two taels of silver and about one or two hundred copper coins. Cheng Yeran was richer than he thought.

He nodded: "Enough."

Cheng Yeran threw the silver and copper coins to him directly, and did not forget to tease him: "Now you are my wife, you are in charge of the money."

Shen Yuntang was stunned, and it took him a long time to recover. He pointed at himself and asked, "I care? Are you sure?"

In his previous life, he married Xia Xiaowu. Xia Xiaowu's family was so rich, but they never gave him a penny. He didn't dare to ask for anything he wanted. He usually had to look at the Xia family's faces before eating at home. But Cheng Yeran actually gave him all his belongings?
