Shen Tingci reached out and took it.
Shen Tingzhi didn't stop, turned around and ran away in small steps.
Gu Shuhe looked at the bag, then at Shen Tingzhi who was trotting away, and couldn't help but express his opinion, "It's not good for us to take this money, right?"
Shen Tingci accepted it as a matter of course, then reached out to close the door. “Don’t worry, his salary is higher than ours.”
Since he said that, Gu Shuhe was curious, "How much money is it?"
Shen Tingci looked down at the bag, then looked at Gu Shuhe who looked curious, "Then count!"
Then the two of them began to count the gift money on the big red wedding bed.
A bundle of scattered banknotes fell on the bed, and it was mainly Gu Shuhe who was counting them.
When I finished counting, there were actually over a thousand.
Because the amount of money was quite large, it was already quite late when we finished counting it.
Gu Shuhe yawned, put the money back in place, and went to find a basin to wash.
Gu Shuhe's movements were very smooth, but Shen Tingci sat on the edge of the bed and hesitated.
He felt that anything he said at this time would seem too frivolous and reckless, so he simply kept silent and waited quietly.
The result of waiting was that Gu Shuhe got into bed right after washing. "You're not going to sleep?"
Shen Tingci nodded and stood up, "Go to sleep, I'll go take a shower."
Gu Shuhe wrapped the quilt tightly around him and said "hmm".
Then……
And then nothing happened.
When Shen Tingci came back from washing, he faced the person lying on the bed and said in an unsteady tone, "Are you still going to the toilet?"
"If you don't go up, just... take a rest!"
Gu Shuhe: Huh~shh~huh~shh~
It’s good to be young, you can just lie down and sleep.
“…Shuhe, Shuhe…”
Then Shen Tingci was sure that Gu Shuhe was really asleep.
Seeing that Gu Shuhe had fallen asleep, Shen Tingci lowered his head to look at himself who had washed himself clean. He could only smile helplessly, then lifted the other side of the quilt and got into bed.
The next morning, Gu Shuhe got up early, just like he did at home.
Although she got up in Shen Tingci's arms.
Although Gu Shuhe was able to accept the fact that she got married at the age of 20 and became someone else's family due to her upbringing, it did not mean that she was also able to accept the fact that she woke up in a man's arms in the morning.
Gu Shuhe's first reaction was embarrassment, and his second reaction was ashamed.
The third reaction is:
"…Did I fall asleep last night?"
Shen Tingci woke up before she did, but he just opened his eyes and looked at the person in his arms without moving for a moment.
The moment Gu Shuhe woke up, Shen Tingci's first reaction was to pretend to be asleep, but he subconsciously closed his eyes and then opened them again.
He felt that this kind of behavior of covering up one's own faults was really unnecessary.
Although there was no need to try to cover one's ears and steal the bell, when Gu Shuhe asked, "Did I fall asleep last night?" Shen Tingci's ears still turned red, and in the end he just said "hmm".
Gu Shuhe apologized to him, "I'm sorry, I might be too sleepy."
Only then did Shen Tingci pull back his hand that was pressed by her and tell her "It's okay!"
Gu Shuhe felt that this man was indeed a good person.
Good temper!
The wedding night was so important, but he was not angry at all. Of course, the most important thing was that he did not wake her up.
Then the two of them started to put on their clothes in tacit understanding.
No one mentioned what happened last night anymore.
Most people in this era are still reserved and introverted. Even couples rarely talk about their marital affairs.
Most people's lives are more like those of a mute couple.
As for night time, all we have to do is turn off the lights and put our tacit understanding into action.
So it is the same for Shen Tingci and Gu Shuhe, a young couple born and raised in this area.
Gu Shuhe got up and went out. Chen Ying was a little surprised to see her. "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"Ah, I slept well, slept well," Gu Shuhe said with a guilty look on his face.
She didn't sleep with Shen Tingci on her wedding night, as if she had done something unforgivable.
Chen Ying naturally didn't know her guilty conscience, so she just told her, "Hey, I just cooked the porridge. I didn't know you two got up so early. I was thinking of eating later!"
As for why Shen Tingci and Gu Shuhe got up late, I understood.
Shen Tingci changed the subject, "What do you want to eat in the morning?"
"There are quite a few fried dough sticks and steamed buns left over from the banquet. When the porridge is ready, heat up the steamed buns and fried dough sticks, and boil an egg for each person."
"There are still quite a few leftovers from yesterday's banquet. I'll heat up two more!"
After saying that, she looked at Gu Shuhe again, "Shuhe, do you want to eat anything?"
Gu Shuhe shook his head. "There are fried dough sticks and eggs, but I still feel it's not enough. I can't want to eat a full banquet, right?"
Chen Ying: “…”
Then Gu Shuhe added, "At my house, we have steamed buns and pickles in the morning."
Chen Ying: Okay, okay, you were praising me, not being sarcastic.
So Chen Ying smiled and said, "You kid, what do you mean by your home and my home? This will be your home from now on!"
"Oh, I know, Mom!"
Shuhe is also a good child who corrects his mistakes as soon as he realizes them.
But that's it.
She changed it so quickly, as if you had said something sarcastic.
Chen Ying: “…”
"...Then, I'll go check on the porridge!"
Gu Shuhe said, "Mom, I'll go and help you."
Chen Ying: Apart from speaking directly and not beating around the bush, my daughter-in-law doesn't seem to have any other problems.
Gu Shuhe wanted to help, and Chen Ying didn't refuse.
She is not a bad mother-in-law, but she has not escaped the behavioral habits of mothers-in-law of this era.
Gu Shuhe was not allowed to do housework yesterday because she was the bride and she couldn’t be made to work so hard on her wedding day!
