"Sister Shen..." The curtain of another carriage was lifted, revealing Cao Ya's ugly face.
Looking at Shen Zhaozhao, his eyes were full of resentment.
Shen Zhaozhao slapped his head and almost forgot about this person.
"You two, you have to take good care of sending Sister Cao back."
Sun 께꾉 agreed quickly: "No problem!"
Cao Ya's face turned even darker. He glared at Sun 께꾉 and lowered the car curtain.
Shen Zhaozhao chuckled dryly, gave his brother a look that said "take care of yourself", and returned to his carriage.
As soon as I entered, I saw a charcoal basin burning in the carriage, and the warmth hit me in the face.
It dispelled the chill in the mountains.
Zhan Nanxing then handed her a hand-warming hot water bottle.
Shen Zhaozhao was completely subdued, inside and out.
"Sixth sister, remember our story!"
The carriage moved slowly, and Guan Pingle's rough voice could be heard from outside the carriage.
Shen Zhaozhao lifted the car window curtain and shouted at him: "Got it!"
Swoosh——
The curtains were lowered to block out the severe cold outside.
"You can just wait at home." Shen Zhaozhao took off his helmet and headlamp, and took off his hard-shell jacket.
"It's getting dark now, I'm a little worried, come here and wait to feel better."
It was the first time that Zhan Nanxing saw these equipments, and he looked at her.
Seeing that she had taken off her coat, he quickly took his cloak and put it on Shen Zhaozhao's shoulders.
The more considerate he was, the more Shen Zhaozhao felt that what he was going to say would be very irritating.
After struggling for a long time, he sighed.
He hugged Zhan Nanxing's arm and groaned for a long time.
Zhan Nanxing curled his thin lips slightly.
"You have something to say." Shen Zhaozhao gritted his teeth, raised his eyes, and looked at the man beside him.
"Well, go ahead."
Zhan Nanxing really likes the way she sticks to him and acts coquettishly.
It seemed that she only showed this side of herself in front of him.
Shen Zhaozhao took a deep breath:
"It's like this. Just now on the mountain, General Wude's friend discovered a possible gold mine, but if you want to dig it, you need to invest first."
Zhan Nanxing heard that Shen Zhaozhao was discussing the use of silver and money with him.
"Zhao Zhao, you can make your own decision."
Zhan Nanxing blinked. Even if he was so poor that he couldn't even afford to eat, he couldn't plan to give his wife a dowry.
"no……"
Shen Zhaozhao knew that he didn't understand what he meant.
"This money was originally intended to be used to treat your leg injury..."
Shen Zhaozhao raised his eyes and looked at Zhan Nanxing seriously, not wanting to miss any emotion in his eyes.
Her meaning was very clear.
If she wanted to open a gold mine, she would have no money to treat his leg injury.
Therefore, she wanted Zhan Nanxing to participate in this choice.
Zhan Nanxing turned around and didn't reply to her in a hurry. He just picked up the kettle above the charcoal basin.
He poured a cup of tea, confirmed the temperature, and then handed it to Shen Zhaozhao.
Shen Zhaozhao didn’t answer.
Zhan Nanxing was speechless and directly handed the teacup to her lips, "Would you like some?"
Shen Zhaozhao glared at him before taking the teacup.
Drink it all in one gulp.
"What do you think?" Shen Zhaozhao is not good at guessing other people's thoughts, especially men's thoughts.
She likes to speak her mind.
He asked while holding Zhan Nanxing's arm.
Zhan Nanxing looked at her with a look of concern and expectation.
"Do you think you'll be disappointed?" Zhan Nanxing raised his hand and wiped away some of the dust on her face that had rubbed off on her in the mountains.
"I just said it."
"Zhao Zhao, you can make your own decision."
Shen Zhaozhao blinked.
that's all?
"Aren't you feeling uncomfortable because I can't treat your leg for the time being?"
Could it be that this person was pretending to be nice just to comfort her?
"Ouch!"
Shen Zhaozhao wasn't paying attention and was flicked on the forehead by Zhan Nanxing.
He felt pain and covered his forehead and glared at people.
"Zhao Zhao, among the men of the Zhan family, no one has ever calculated a woman's dowry."
"No one said that they would need your money to treat your leg."
Zhan Nanxing pulled Shen Zhaozhao's hand away, and was relieved when he saw that his forehead did not turn red after being flicked by him.
He was also so angry that he laughed.
If he had known that she would need to use her dowry money to treat his legs and feet, he would not have done so.
"Then let's spend the money on the gold mine first?" Shen Zhaozhao felt a little relieved when he saw that Zhan Nanxing didn't mind being disappointed at all.
"Use it." Zhan Nanxing was helpless.
He wanted to heal his leg, and that was also so that he could accompany her and stand beside her with dignity.
She asked him to use her money to heal his legs. Even if his legs were healed, it would be no different from being unable to stand up for the rest of his life.
“Baji——”
Shen Zhaozhao held Zhan Nanxing's face and kissed her hard.
"It's so kind of you!"
Zhan Nanxing looked at her, his eyes sparkling, his mind moved slightly, he crossed his arms around her waist, hugged her tightly, and leaned over to kiss Shen Zhaozhao.
Shen Zhaozhao put his arm around Zhan Nanxing's neck and closed his eyes slightly.
“Bang—”
The carriage passed through a pothole and the body of the carriage shook violently.
"Ouch."
"hiss."
Their lips touched each other, and they both covered their lips and looked at each other in pain. When they saw that each other's eyes were red from the pain, they chuckled together.
By the time the carriage reached home, it was nearly midnight.
Guo was still guarding the door. When she heard the carriage coming back, she felt relieved and went to greet it, yawning.
He kept mumbling something.
"Finally I'm back. I've saved dinner for you."
"Third brother's wife, you made my third brother worried all day. He insisted on going to find you, and even grandma couldn't stop him..."
Guo stared blankly at the two people getting off the carriage, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
He pulled Shen Zhaozhao over and dragged her into the house, pointing at the corner of her lips with disgust.
"You are such a fool. If a man is anxious, let him be anxious. Why don't you pay more attention?"
"Ah?" Shen Zhaozhao raised his hand and touched his lips belatedly.
It hurts. It hurts.
He quickly found a bronze mirror and looked at it.
Well, it got smashed in the car.
"No, sister-in-law, the carriage just passed a pothole and crashed into it." Shen Zhaozhao saw Guo looking at her teasingly and hurriedly explained.
"I know. What a coincidence, there was a pit there, and your mouths just happened to bump into each other!" Guo had an expression that showed she understood everything.
Shen Zhaozhao: …
Under Guo's arrangement, Shen Zhaozhao and Zhan Nanxing had a make-up dinner together.
"The room has been cleaned up. You can finally sleep in the same bed tonight." Looking at the two people who were concentrating on eating, Guo said with a loving and caring face.
“Cough, cough, cough…” Shen Zhaozhao choked on the rice grains.
Zhan Nanxing hurriedly handed her some water.
"What's wrong? Why are you so impatient?" Guo said with a wicked smile.
"Second sister-in-law, second brother is still waiting for you in the room." Zhan Nanxing couldn't bear to see Shen Zhaozhao blushing when being teased.
"I know. If you think you're unnecessary and in the way, just chase you away. Then go!"
Guo smiled and told them to eat slowly, then went back to the house first.
Shen Zhaozhao took a breath.
Looking at the newly renovated hall around her, she realized that the house had been repaired and tidied up, so she naturally ignored the sisters-in-law and continued to huddle together.
She chewed the steamed bun hard.
snort.
Isn't it just sharing a bed?
It’s not like I haven’t slept before!
