The next day, faint sunlight came through the window, and Jing Zhi woke up from the warmth. She looked at the quilt on her body and suddenly sat up. When she saw the bed on the floor, her heart slowed down. She tiptoed out of bed and walked out slowly.

But he saw Shen Mo feeding the chicks in the chicken coop. Jing Zhi yawned with interest and said jokingly, "Young Master, good morning!"

Shen Mo patted the dust off his hands, then walked out of the chicken coop. His long eyelashes cast a shadow, and he said, "It's not early.

I've finished feeding the chickens.

Since you are in good health, I won't trouble you today, but tomorrow, you must get up earlier than the roosters."

Getting up earlier than the chickens? Jing Zhi's eyes were filled with helplessness, and he grumbled without confidence, "The chickens don't sleep all night, so I can't sleep either."

"That's right. Then you should get up after the rooster crows three times every day." Shen Mo said calmly.

Jing Zhi said in embarrassment, "It's not impossible, I'm just... I'm just afraid that I can't hear the rooster crow."

Shen Mo frowned, but in the end he said nothing. Instead, he took a wooden basin to collect some well water and handed it to Jing Zhi. A hint of pity flashed across his eyes, and he said, "Jing Zhi, a girl should always pay attention to her image."

Looking at the basin of clear water, Jing Zhi was so surprised that her eyes were about to drop. With her hair in disarray and mud on her face, she was so ashamed and angry that she quickly took the basin and ran into the inner room like a gust of wind.

The days passed in this dull manner. Jing Zhi would get up early every day to feed the chickens, then wash clothes obediently. Then, what she often did was to go to her second brother's grave and talk about the changes in herself in recent days.

But it can be seen that she smiles more and more. Although she is so angry with Shen Mo that she wants to bang her head against the wall every day, this kind of interesting life is something she has never experienced before.

She had never left Shen Mo's house. Firstly, she was afraid that the government officials would come to find her. Secondly, she was not good at interacting with others, which would be embarrassing. So she could only stay at home. Whenever she finished her work, she would sit in the yard with a book, quietly waiting for Shen Mo to come back.

On this day, Shen Mo bought fish and meat, which was rare. His clean and fresh clothes also had a bit of fishy smell. There was a small flame in her eyes. It must be said that Shen Mo was a very stingy person. He only had the same plain water and thin soup every day. Even if she complained for a long time, he always perfunctorily gave her a response.

When the fish and meat were ready, the aroma of the meat made Jing Zhi rush into the kitchen. Her eyes, like starlight, were full of tears. She looked at Shen Mo pitifully and praised him without hesitation, "Shen Mo, you are such a good cook. In the future, your wife will definitely enjoy a good life."

She can wash clothes, cook, and take care of people...

He is really a good man, although his mouth is too smelly and too poisonous.

Shen Mo looked at Jing Zhi with his calm eyes and sighed softly, "It's a pity that I'm poor and ugly."

Jing Zhi lowered her head embarrassedly, stirring her fingers constantly. She had to say, this man was really petty. He could still remember so clearly the words she had cursed him with so long ago.

But now that the flesh was in his hands, Jing Zhi could only admit defeat and said, "How could it be! Young Master, you are tall, powerful, and handsome. I'm afraid all the girls in the surrounding area are vying to be your wife!"

The corner of Shen Mo's mouth twitched for a moment, and his eyes were somewhat far-reaching. In the end, he still did not tell Jing Zhi what happened at the market today. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and asked tentatively, "What about you?"
