Drive people away
The main house of Yinjianju was kept clean and bright by Cang Yi.
Tai Shi Zheng let go of Cui Zhijun's hand the moment he entered the door. Cui Zhijun stood at the door in a daze, looking at the back of the man in front of him who was angry with him. He finally understood what the teacher meant when he said, "Only women and villains are difficult to raise."
Cui Zhijun sat at the desk in silence, wanting to see how Tai Shi Zheng would react if he didn't explain.
Zheng walked over to the basin rack, took out a clean handkerchief, and turned around to throw it at Cui Zhijun's face like a flying pancake. Cui Zhijun was startled by the flying handkerchief.
He had thought of thousands of ways that Taishi Zheng might treat him, but he had never imagined it would be like this.
Cui Zhijun covered his head, thinking that the wife he would marry would be really unexpected.
For twenty years, he had been this noble servant. He was not only the center of attention, but also the most pampered. This was the first time in his life that someone dared to treat him this way.
But before Cui Zhiyun could pick up the handkerchief, Zheng pretended to be angry and walked forward, peeling the handkerchief off again, saying, "Ah, Brother Yun, how did the handkerchief fly onto your face? I didn't mean to. I was just in a hurry to wipe Brother Yun's face, and I accidentally... Brother Yun won't blame me, will you~"
“…”
Cui Zhijun remained silent, he looked at Taishi Zheng intentionally.
Seeing Cui Zhijun remained silent, Zheng took advantage of the situation and gently tapped his chest with her slender fingertips. "What's wrong, Brother Yun? Why aren't you talking? Don't you like me? If not, then get someone else to serve you?"
Listening to his wife's sarcastic words, Cui Zhijun didn't get angry but laughed instead.
But I don’t know why?
He had clearly just heard Zou Shuangqiao calling him "Brother Yun" for so long that he felt uncomfortable scratching his head and cheeks. But when it came to Taishi Zheng, he felt happy and friendly, not even a little bit disgusted. Whenever Taishi Zheng called him, Cui Zhiyun's heart trembled.
After thinking about it, Cui Zhijun finally realized that
It wasn't that calling him Brother Yun was unpleasant, it was that the person calling him was not the right one...
Zheng watched helplessly as the man before her began to laugh faintly after she finished speaking, and she immediately became furious. She pointed at Cui Zhijun and cursed, "Well, Cui Zhijun, you're actually laughing! You're hooked by just a few words like 'Brother Yun'? You men are such spineless people."
In fact, Zheng didn't believe that Cui Zhijun and Zou Shuangqiao had anything going on. They just met on the road and borrowed an umbrella.
But it was because this happened at the right time, and Zou Shuangqiao looked ill-intentioned.
Zheng took the opportunity to act out of temper.
She just wanted to see if Choi Zhijun would be willing to put on a brave face and comfort her after she made her angry.
However, the couple's mutual testing seemed strange to the puppy. Cuocuo couldn't understand why he kept circling around his owner with his head held high. Finally, he simply found the edge of the lichen-covered bed and lay down on it obediently, with his ears drooping, not moving or barking.
"Madam, do you know what I am laughing at?"
Cui Zhijun reached out and put his arm around Taishi Zheng's waist without being arrogant or impatient.
Now he really accepted the fact that they were a real couple who were physically intimate and in accordance with the law.
Zheng lowered her eyes to look at the person before her, deliberately struggling and twisting, but she couldn't break free from Cui Zhijun's grip. Zheng was helpless, so she just let it go. She had nothing to lose. She casually unfolded the handkerchief and wrapped it around Cui Zhijun's slightly damp head.
Zheng rubbed his head and replied unhappily, "I don't know, and I don't want to know. Cui Erlang, you can laugh all you want, but don't laugh in the same bed with me at night. Please stay away from me when you laugh. Don't disturb me."
Although Tai Shi Zheng said this in anger, she did not stop wiping the water off Cui Zhijun.
Cui Zhijun wasn't stupid; he could sense the love and care the person before him held for him. Looking up at Taishi Zheng's angry face, Cui Zhijun suddenly had a sudden thought: he wanted to indulge himself for once and try what it felt like to act like a spoiled child with someone. So he quietly buried his head in Taishi Zheng's belly.
Zheng stopped in surprise when she suddenly felt a warm head against her abdomen.
She placed a handkerchief on Cui Zhijun's slender neck and touched it. It immediately became soft, and the sour feeling gradually dissipated.
In fact, sometimes people are very simple.
Something as simple as an intimate physical contact can resolve all dissatisfaction.
But... it's very difficult to do this.
Cui Zhijun leaned against Taishi Zheng, feeling an unprecedented peace of mind. He remained silent and didn't want to say anything.
In his previous life, Cui Zhijun had never acted like a spoiled child with anyone, nor would he express his emotions, even dissatisfaction, to Yu Yuelan or Cui Yu. Between them, apart from deference, there was only responsibility. But ever since meeting Taishi Zheng, Cui Zhijun felt as if he had encountered another life, a completely different way of living. It was brilliant, free, and full of hope.
But Zheng couldn't understand why Cui Zhiyun did this?
She only asked: "Cui Erlang, I asked you to wait for me in the elegant hall, why did you bring Cuo Cuo here?"
"I came when I wanted to..." Cui Zhijun replied simply and straightforwardly.
Zheng wanted to laugh, but she still gently lifted Cui Zhijun's head as she spoke, pretending to be disgusted and said, "Alright, alright, we have our own ideas, so do whatever you want. But how can I wipe you dry if you're like this? Sit down quickly. Don't keep Big Brother and the others waiting."
Unexpectedly, Cang Yi happened to push the door open. She was worried that the young couple couldn't find Cui Zhijian's new clothes, so she wanted to come in and take a look.
Unexpectedly, I happened to see the two of them hugging each other in the house.
Cang Yi was a little embarrassed and quickly covered up, "Erlang, Zheng. No, sorry, I'm used to it and forgot to knock on the door." As she was about to close the door and leave the room, Cuo Cuo stood up at the sound and ran towards the door shaking her head.
This frightened Cang Yi, who was afraid of dogs, so much so that he stood there motionless, crying out for help: "Dog, dog. Dalang, it's moving, it's moving. It's not on a leash!!"
Cui Zhijian got up to look at the noise made by his wife, but he didn't pay any attention to the puppy on the ground. He shouted at the couple hugging each other in the house: "Hey, is this how it works faster? Wife, let's try it next time--"
Cang Yi was so frightened by Cuo Cuo that he hung on Cui Zhijian and had no time to reply to him.
And what about the young couple?
But it was as if he had been discovered while sneaking around, and he felt ashamed.
In a moment of panic, Zheng pushed Cui Zhijun away and swung the handkerchief at him again. The next moment, the handkerchief slipped off Cui Zhijun's face, and Zheng shouted, "Cui Erlang. Here, here—take the handkerchief and wipe yourself. I'm going out first!"
Zheng ran away with a blushing face.
Cui Zhijun looked at each other with his hands down. Weren't they supposed to be a real couple? How could they fall out so quickly?
-
Cuocuo recognizes people and doesn't want his father anymore since he has his mother.
The puppy followed Taishi Zheng's heels out the door, oblivious to anything else. But Cang Yi was still terrified, afraid even to look. Cui Zhijian, though clueless, was a man of considerable strength. He put one hand around Cang Yi's waist and lifted him off the ground.
Cang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
But Cui Zhijian didn't rush to leave while holding Cang Yi. He specifically looked over to where the new clothes were kept. When he saw his new clothes were safely in their original place, Cui Zhijian finally felt relieved and said to Cui Zhijun, who had stood up and dried himself inside, "It's okay, second brother. It's okay to get a little wet. Come out and warm yourself by the fire. Don't stay indoors all the time!"
Cui Zhijun could understand the implicit meaning of his words, nodded, and said nothing more.
But before the three of them could leave, Zou Shuangqiao's delicate cry of surprise and Cuo Cuo's frantic barking could be heard from the awning. The eldest sister-in-law and her husband were the first to turn their heads and see Cuo Cuo had entered the awning before Tai Shi Zheng. After sniffing around Zou Shuangqiao, she began barking at him.
Zou Shuangqiao was so frightened that he stood up and chased him away, "What are you yelling about, you little beast? Go away, go away."
Zheng walked quickly, and a strong scent of powder hit her face. She hurriedly called out to Cuocuo, "Cuocuo, come here——"
But the puppy's sense of smell is extremely sensitive.
Cuo Cuo was agitated by the strong aroma and did not listen to Zheng's orders at all.
Seeing this, Zheng quickly stepped forward and picked up Cuo Cuo to prevent it from rushing towards Zou Shuangqiao. She was also afraid that Zou Shuangqiao would hurt Cuo Cuo in a panic. After comforting the puppy in her arms, Zheng lectured Cuo Cuo, "Cuo Cuo, you can't do this. This is impolite."
"Just like when someone calls you a little beast, are you going to be as rude as her?"
Zheng deliberately said this to Zou Shuangqiao. But when she turned around and saw the frightened Zou Shuangqiao, she still had to apologize, "Madam Zou, I'm really sorry. The puppy is shy. I scared you. I apologize to you. Are you hurt anywhere?"
"You—"
With such a commotion, Zou Shuangqiao seemed to be standing on the moral high ground. Just as she was about to open her mouth to blame, she saw Cui Zhijun coming over after hearing the news.
Zou Shuangqiao immediately put on a pitiful look, wiping his tears with his handkerchiefs, saying, "Second Young Master's Madam, even if you don't like me and blame me for accepting the umbrella given to me by Brother Yun, there's no need to chase me away like this. After all, I'm a guest invited by the old lady..."
Zheng stared, bewildered. How could this person still confuse right and wrong?
As they were talking, Cui Zhijun came under the awning, and Zou Shuangqiao became more excited.
Look at her, clutching her handkerchief and hiding beside Cui Zhiyun, timidly looking at Taishi Zheng, "Brother Yun, you're finally here. I really don't know how I offended the Second Young Master's wife. She actually sent this little beast to chase me. This little beast isn't big, but it's really ferocious. It really scared me to death. But Brother Yun... please don't blame the Second Young Master's wife. I think it must be my fault that she's upset. No matter how wrong I am, it's all my fault~"
God, why does she say both good and bad things——
The zheng must have been unheard of.
Ke Zheng didn't want to explain any more. She knew that it was useless to reason with such a person, but she wanted to test Cui Zhijun's reaction first.
As for the rest, it doesn't matter.
Cang Yi hurriedly patted Cui Zhijian and motioned him to go over and take a look, but Cui Zhijian shook his head and refused.
He thought it would be better for the two of them not to get involved in this matter.
Looking under the awning, she saw Cui Zhijun remained unmoved after Zou Shuangqiao's words. He had kept his strong back in front of Taishi Zheng, shielding her from danger. Zheng stared blankly at Cui Zhijun's back as he spoke harshly...
"Madam Zou, do you know that the little beast you keep calling me is a gift from me to my wife?"
"We have always treated it like a child."
"In that case, as the saying goes, if a son is not well-disciplined, it is the fault of his father. Therefore, I will apologize to you on behalf of Cuo Cuo. As for your claim that my wife did it on purpose, I find it hard to believe. I know exactly what kind of person she is."
"Also, I didn't want to say this so bluntly, but now that things have come to this, I have to. From the beginning today, when we met on the road, I had no intention of talking to Madam Zou, but since she was caught in the rain, I had no problem lending her my umbrella. But she actually followed me all the way here..."
"I know you're the old lady's guest, but if Madam Zou's purpose for this visit isn't just to be her guest, then I beg you to not bother. If I'm wrong, Madam Zou will blame me for being too sentimental and offensive."
"If Madam Zou has nothing to do, please leave while the rain is getting lighter—"
