Chapter 216: You want to rob a woman in broad daylight?
"My dear, can you please call me your husband?"
"My husband..."
"Zhiyi, I love you!" Shen Changan hugged Xu Zhiyi tightly.
"I love you too...mmmm..."
That night, the room was filled with people calling out "husband" and "wife! Zhiyi!"
"Zhiyi, do you know that since I last saw that picture, I have dreamed about you every day... I am even afraid that I am dreaming about you now... ah..."
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi bit his shoulder and panted, "Hey, does it hurt? Is this not a dream?"
"Zhiyi, you are mine..."
"Ah...husband! Please let me go~"
"My lady says one thing and means another!"
No, she just... uh... accidentally!
An hour later, both of them were so tired that they hugged each other and fell asleep soundly.
The next day, Shen Wuyou and Su got up, washed, and made breakfast. After they had breakfast, Xu Zhiyi and Shen Changan woke up.
As soon as Shen Changan opened his eyes, he met the eyes of Xu Zhiyi, who had also just woken up.
"Morning, my husband!"
"Good morning, my lady." Then he kissed Xu Zhiyi on the forehead.
"My wife, and my brother, are you two awake?"
Shen Changan: “Yeah”
Shen Wuyou: "Okay, I brought you some hot water for washing, I put it at the door for you! And breakfast is heated in a small pot."
Hearing Shen Wuyou's explanation, Xu Zhiyi was moved: "Okay, we know."
Shen Changan opened the door and put a bucket of hot water at the door, and there was a wooden basin for washing next to it.
After Xu Zhiyi and Shen Changan finished washing up, they came out the door and saw Su sitting under the eaves. At this time, she saw the two people getting up and smiled:
"Zhiyi, Changan, go to the kitchen and have breakfast!"
The two of them felt Su's penetrating gaze and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
After breakfast, everyone took a mule cart to the shop. They were a little late today, but fortunately one of the keys to the shop was handed to Mu, because she, Wu and Ma often arrived at the shop early.
In order to save them from having to sit and wait at the door of the shop in the cold weather, a spare key was given to Mu for safekeeping. Anyway, the silver that came into the shop every day was taken back every day, and there were no valuables in the shop, so there was nothing to worry about.
Although it was a little late today, when everyone arrived at the shop, the three Mu family members had already prepared the batter, kneaded the dough, and beaten a bowl of egg cream.
Xu Zhiyi looked at the three people's performance in surprise: "You three, how early did you come today? You don't have to come so early in the future."
Mu: "It's not bad, I just arrived at the shop half an hour earlier than usual."
Ma: "Yes, we can't sleep anyway, even if we don't have to work we will still get up so early"
Wu: "Besides, we were so excited to think that we could earn money as soon as we opened our eyes that we woke up naturally when the time came!"
Xu Zhiyi was helpless when she heard that. She thought that they might be telling the truth, so she had to think of another way to make up for it: "Okay! Since you came early, you can go home half an hour earlier before closing the shop in the evening."
Mu: "No, no, no, how can we leave when you, the shopkeeper, are still working?"
"It's not a discussion, it's a decision for the future! You guys should come here early in the morning, if I still let you work until the evening, wouldn't I be a wicked boss who exploits my employees?"
Ma and Wu, who originally wanted to speak up, saw that there was no room for change in what Xu Zhiyi said, so they had to listen obediently. They both cherished this job very much. As long as they worked for a year, they would have the betrothal gifts and dowries for their son and daughter.
So when the two of them came to the shop, they always kept in mind that they must not quarrel, not quarrel, never. Although sometimes they couldn't help but say half a word, but after they realized it, they quickly swallowed the other half back.
Until later, when the two of them couldn't help it anymore, they started quarreling with laughter. You laughed, and I laughed even harder.
Su: "Today we will just make cakes for Su Ji Lou. We don't plan to open the shop in the afternoon!"
Everyone was puzzled when they heard this. Su saw that Xu Zhiyi and Shen Changan and Shen Wuyou were also confused. She couldn't help but tapped Xu Zhiyi's forehead and scolded with a smile:
"Zhiyi, tomorrow is the sixth day of the New Year, have you forgotten? We have to start preparing in the afternoon, otherwise we won't be able to make it in time tomorrow."
When everyone heard this, they immediately remembered that Shen Changan Shen Wuyou felt sweet in his heart when he thought of tomorrow’s big day.
Mu: "Oh, we forgot. Sister Su, you told the villagers everything when we held the banquet for the last move."
Upon hearing this, Ma glanced at Xu Zhiyi and Shen Changan with an ambiguous look: "Hey, the man is handsome and the woman is pretty, the three of you are a perfect match."
Mrs. Wu: "Yes, our shopkeeper is a blessed man. It's enough to have two such handsome husbands, but the problem is that both of them are caring."
Xu Zhiyi: "Okay, ladies, stop talking. You are thick-skinned enough to begin with, but if you keep talking, even the thickest skin will become thinner!"
The three of them laughed loudly when they heard this: "Okay, okay, we won't talk about it anymore. Let's save it for tomorrow's big day."
Everyone worked for two hours. After Su Jilou prepared enough pastries for today, they cleaned up, closed the shop and went home.
Because Xu Zhiyi had to stay in the town to buy things, Mu, Ma and Wu walked back together.
Just as the three of them walked to the town gate, a man blocked their way.
Ma pulled Mu and Wu back and said, "Who are you? You want to rob a woman in broad daylight?"
The man took out thirty taels of silver from his sleeve pocket, looked at the three Ma family members, and said temptingly, "Do you want it?"
Hearing this, Wu couldn't help but roll her eyes: "I can be sure that there is nothing wrong with our brains, so the problem is you, go find a doctor as soon as possible!"
Ma: "That's right, a normal person would stop someone and ask for so much silver? I don't know if you have a brain disease or you think we are stupid?"
Mu: "Oh, how miserable! It turns out that God can be so unfair to a person. Not only did he not give you a good appearance, but he also didn't give you a good brain. It shows that even God can't do anything about you! What...what..."
Ma: "It's hopeless! So God has given up!"
