When Jiang Sui came out, he looked much better than before. At least his clothes were not so ill-fitting anymore, and he had new shoes on his feet, which made him look much more decent.
Mother Xiao looked at her masterpiece and nodded with great satisfaction.
Facing their scrutinizing gazes, Jiang Sui felt a little uncomfortable. At this moment, a pleasant young male voice sounded, giving people a pure and flawless feeling:
"Mom, is this my wife?"
Jiang Sui looked in the direction of the voice and saw a 1.8-meter-tall man jumping towards her with inquiring and curious eyes.
Although he was wearing a blue-gray short coat, it did not affect his temperament at all. If people didn't know it in advance, who could tell that he was a fool?
Xiao Hechuan circled around Jiang Sui twice, looked at her again and again, and even gently lifted one of her pigtails to look at it. His big eyes were full of curiosity. From the looks of it, she looked no more than six or seven years old in her heart.
Jiang Sui didn't even dare to look him in the eye. She kept her head down and looking at her toes. To be honest, she had planned to marry the future number one scholar, so she felt a little guilty.
"Yes, Hechuan, this is your future wife. Don't forget what your mother taught you. You must be good to your wife and never let her suffer any grievances. Do you understand?" Xiao's mother patiently taught her silly son. Even though his mental state always remained at the level of a six or seven-year-old, she never forgot to teach him the principles of life.
"Okay, I understand, mother. I will definitely treat my wife well." Xiao Hechuan answered seriously and smiled, revealing a row of big white teeth.
Jiang Sui suddenly felt his hand warm, and a big hand wrapped around his hand and held it tightly. It was Xiao Hechuan, who took the initiative to hold his hand.
Jiang Sui froze for a moment, his heart pounding.
"Okay, it's cold outside. Take your wife back to your room to rest. Take good care of her, okay?" Xiao's mother instructed her silly son with a smile.
Xiao Hechuan nodded obediently, then took Jiang Sui's hand and walked towards his room.
He walked in front, he was over 1.8 meters tall, and his back gave people a very solid feeling. Jiang Sui walked behind, letting him pull her, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Mother Xiao and Father Xiao looked at the two men's backs and smiled with satisfaction. The sons of the Xiao family also looked at each other and felt happy from the bottom of their hearts.
It’s great that my fourth brother has married, and everyone can finally feel happy.
Xiao Hechuan took Jiang Sui back to the room and closed the door.
The first thing Jiang Sui saw was the layout of the room. It was not large, with a kang, a newly built wardrobe for clothes, painted red, and a newly built shelf for the washbasin and towel. The bedding on the bed was new and neatly folded. There were also two pairs of new shoes beside the bed, one big and one small, but they were made of black cloth. No wonder Xiao's mother asked her to wear her sister-in-law's pink cloth shoes first. After all, today was a happy day and wearing black was unlucky.
Then there was a rectangular wooden table with several large baskets of books on it. Before the accident, Xiao Hechuan was a genius in reading, and everyone in the village thought that he would at least become a juren in the future.
But things happen unexpectedly, and no one expected the unexpected events that would happen later.
"Wife, don't stand there, sit down." Xiao Hechuan saw his wife standing there in a daze as soon as she came in, so he pushed her back with both hands and walked towards the kang.
Jiang Sui followed his instructions. He asked her to sit down, then turned around and poured a cup of steaming hot tea from the teapot on the table.
Because the water was too hot, the teacup was also hot. Xiao Hechuan kept switching his hands and blowing air into it. His serious look was very cute.
"Drink some water, my wife, your hands are so cold~"
Xiao Hechuan just noticed carefully that his young wife's hands were cold. His mother said that if you feel cold, you should drink hot water, and if you drink more hot water, you won't feel cold anymore.
He also always remembers what his mother said, to take good care of his wife.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Sui couldn't help but laugh. Her smile had two sweet dimples.
She took the tea and said:
"Thanks."
Xiao Hechuan scratched his head in embarrassment, his face instantly turned red. He was a simple-minded person, so he said whatever he wanted to say at that time:
"Wife, you have a beautiful smile."
Jiang Sui squatted in mid-air with a teacup in her hand. She looked up at Xiao Hechuan. The young man had a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, red lips, white teeth, fair skin, and was very handsome. At this moment, his face turned red because of shyness, which made him look even more extraordinary.
It would be a lie for Jiang Sui to say that he was not stunning. As soon as Xiao Hechuan appeared in the book, his looks and temperament made all the noble ladies fall in love with him, not to mention that he was also very talented in writing. However, the young man was too aloof and proud, and he walked through a sea of flowers without getting a single leaf on him.
"You are also very handsome, the most handsome person I have ever seen." Jiang Sui was honestly saying that she couldn't even imagine how dazzling Xiao Hechuan would be if he returned to normal in the near future. In the original novel, Jiang Qiaoqiao regretted her decision so much in the end.
After hearing what Jiang Sui said, Xiao Hechuan's face turned even redder. He covered his face with his hands and turned his back. He looked so awkward that he seemed like a little wife.
After that, Xiao Hechuan stayed in the room with Jiang Sui, chattering non-stop and asking questions, and Jiang Sui patiently answered his questions.
More and more villagers came from outside to help. Everyone had a clear division of labor. Some people made fire, some washed vegetables. That's how it is in the countryside. You help my family, and I help yours.
After a while, two little kids were knocking on the window:
"Uncle, come out and play. We're going to set off firecrackers."
When Xiao Hechuan heard this, his eyes lit up and he immediately stood up to leave, but then he remembered that his young wife was still there. His mother told him to stay with his wife, but he also wanted to go out to watch the firecrackers. He was suddenly caught in a dilemma.
Jiang Sui found it funny, but wanted to see what he would do.
After several inner struggles, Xiao Hechuan was finally defeated by his own "childishness".
He scratched his head, blocked his mouth, and looked at Jiang Sui aggrievedly:
"Wife, I want to go out and play, can I?"
It was the first time that Jiang Sui was touched by the cuteness of such a big kid. Seeing his expectant look, Jiang Sui smiled and nodded:
"Okay, go ahead."
With his wife's approval, Xiao Hechuan instantly put aside his grievances and happily went out to reunite with his friends.
But he did not forget to find a companion for his wife. He actually called Xiao Lanlan over and pushed her into the house.
Xiao Lanlan was washing vegetables and hadn't even wiped the water off her hands yet.
"Lanlan, can you help me keep my wife company? I'll be back when I'm done playing."
