Chapter 213 My Lady, the Bed is Warm
"Bah, better than us? I think he might even die on the road."
"That's right. We were able to be assigned to this village because of the scholar Gu Yun. Who else on the village head's side could have benefited from this? So even if they hadn't died, the village they were assigned to would definitely be worse than ours."
When the Xu family heard what the villagers said, they couldn't help but think of Xu Zhiyi and Su. In fact, they had been regretting breaking off the relationship with Xu Zhiyi all the way.
If the relationship had not been severed, he would not have been exhausted on the journey. With the Su mother and daughter around, at least all the work along the way could be left to them, and they would only have to travel leisurely.
Gu Yun, who was standing aside, knew from the moment he entered the village that the inspector did not give him, a scholar, face. When it was his turn, he specifically said that he was a scholar and had his own scholar documents.
After reading it, the inspector looked up at him and said nothing, and arranged for him to be settled in a village. He was happy all the way thinking that he was assigned a good village, but in the end...
Inspector: Bah, when he first heard that he was a scholar, he thought he must be at least in the top ten. But after reading the documents, he found out that he was only ranked 29th. I wonder where he got such self-righteous confidence?
At night, when Xu Zhiyi didn't return to the room, Shen Wuyou lay on the bed in advance to warm up the quilt.
Seeing Xu Zhiyi coming in, Shen Wuyou quickly went back to sleep outside: "My wife, I have warmed up the bed, come over and lie down in the bed, it's warm now."
After taking off his cotton coat, Xu Zhiyi leaned over the bed and carried Chen Wuyou, then opened the quilt and quickly lay down in it. Unlike the previous times when it was freezing cold when he first got into bed, the quilt was now extremely warm.
She suddenly realized that it would be nice to have a husband to help warm the bed in this cold winter.
Shen Wuyou: “Madam, are you warm?”
"If it's still not warm enough, I'll hold you in my arms while you sleep. I'll be warm too."
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi exposed him and said, "No matter if I'm cold or not, you just want to find an excuse to hug me! You don't need to make excuses for what you want to do, just say it directly."
"So... Madam, what you mean is that I can find an excuse to do something else?"
Xu Zhiyi: “I didn’t say that.”
Shen Wuyou turned sideways and hugged Xu Zhiyi directly: "My wife"
"Um"
"Wife"
"Um"
Xu Zhiyi heard him calling her again, and turned sideways and pinched Shen Wuyou's face angrily: "You're not done yet, are you? If you have something to say, just say it. If you tease me again, I'll kick you off the bed."
Shen Wuyou touched the pinched face, leaned close to Xu Zhiyi’s ear and whispered, “My lady, can I kiss you?”
After he finished speaking, his whole face turned hot, and it must be very red now, but he still stared at Xu Zhiyi expectantly. After half a cup of tea, he still didn't get a response, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"Um!"
This "hmm" instantly transformed Shen Wuyou's lost expression into one of surprise.
Then he hugged Xu Zhiyi's waist tightly, leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, and then on the lips...
Xu Zhiyi also responded to him, but who would have thought that it was her response that made Shen Wuyou's aura change all of a sudden, and the hand on Xu Zhiyi's waist directly hugged him tightly and brought him into his arms, wishing to rub into his heart.
"My lady, I really want to"
"In this atmosphere, you can stop asking... um..."
With Xu Zhiyi's permission, Shen Wuyou went up to stop her from saying anything until the two of them kissed for a breath. Then Shen Wuyou leaned close to Xu Zhiyi's ear and whispered, "My wife..."
After that, both of them responded to each other enthusiastically until they were honest with each other...
"My dear, something seems to be wrong..." Everything was going smoothly in his dream.
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi shyly whispered, "Try again!"
“Ah~”
"pain…"
“I’ll be gentler.”
"Wife"
Half an hour later.
Shen Wuyou got up, put on his clothes, opened the door of the room, walked out quietly, went to the kitchen, fetched some water in a wooden basin and brought it back to the room.
After finishing everything, he lay down, hugged his wife and fell asleep contentedly. He and his wife were finally a couple in name only!
The next day, after Su got up and washed up, she came out of the kitchen and happened to see Shen Wuyou coming out of Xu Zhiyi’s room with a sheet in her hand.
Su Shi couldn't hold back her smile when she thought of the possibility! Then, in order to prevent the younger generation from being shy or embarrassed, she quickly pretended not to see it and went back to her room.
When she came out again, freshly washed sheets were already hanging on bamboo poles in the yard.
Oh, should she start thinking about the names of her grandchildren first? Alas, her brain is not good at writing, and all she can think of are tigers, iron eggs, and so on.
Xu Zhiyi didn't get up until the sun rose. From the moment she left the room, she felt that Su seemed to be in a very good mood today.
Su: "Zhiyi, come to my room. The wedding dress that mother made for you is ready!"
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi hurriedly took small steps and followed behind her. Now, whenever she took a big step, she felt a little pain.
Fortunately, Shen Wuyou gave her medicine after the incident last night, otherwise she would not be able to walk in much pain today. After entering the room, Su took out three sets of wedding clothes.
"Zhiyi, your aunt and I have already made this wedding dress. Take a look and see if there's anything you don't like. There's still a few days left so you can make some changes."
"Mom, I think they're all good, no need to change them!"
Su: “Okay, then take off your cotton coat now and try on the wedding dress to see if it fits.
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiyi took off her cotton coat and began to try on her wedding dress. Since it was made according to her measurements, it naturally fit her perfectly.
"It looks great. On the sixth day of the New Year, I will invite a matchmaker to help you put on your makeup. Oh, by then, Zhiyi will be the most beautiful bride."
When Xu Zhiyi heard the matchmaker putting on makeup, she was so scared that she shook her head frantically: "Mom, there is no need to ask the matchmaker. I can put on makeup myself. I have never seen a matchmaker put on makeup for a girl in the village who was getting married and she looked good."
In the original owner's memory, the girls in the village who were getting married would ask the matchmaker to put on makeup for them. They would put a thick layer of powder on their entire face. As long as they talked too loudly or laughed too hard, the powder would start to fall off.
The rouge on her cheeks is so exaggerated that you can see how red her cheeks are from five meters away.
Why, she doesn't want to wear makeup like that.
Upon hearing this, Su didn't plan to invite a matchmaker. Since Zhiyi didn't like her, then forget it!
