Liu Tangxi was stunned when he heard this.

For some reason, her first reaction was that Wei Hanzhou was asking her why she didn't run away.

When she saw Wei Hanzhou's eyes, what she was thinking was confirmed.

Wei Hanzhou's eyes were full of inquiry, which made people feel extremely pressured.

Seeing this look, Liu Tangxi suddenly felt a little scared and his heart started pounding.

At this moment, they were in the wilderness and there was no one around. Thinking of the description of Wei Hanzhou in the book, Liu Tangxi suddenly became nervous.

Wei Hanzhou wouldn't want to...

A breeze blew, bringing with it layers of heat waves, and Liu Tangxi suddenly woke up. The unreliable things that just came to his mind were also blown away by the wind.

Wei Hanzhou was just a scholar at this time, and based on her understanding of him, he just had a dark face, but he was not a bad person.

What was she afraid of him doing?

After staring at each other for a long time, Liu Tangxi relaxed, glanced sideways at a stone under the tree next to him, walked over and sat down leisurely.

She was tired anyway, and Wei Hanzhou seemed to have some questions to ask her, so why not sit down comfortably and talk.

As for Wei Hanzhou, he can stand there if he wants. It has nothing to do with her anyway.

Seeing Liu Tangxi like this, Wei Hanzhou frowned slightly.

He had noticed Liu Tangxi's mood change just now. At first, she was nervous, scared and frightened, but somehow, she suddenly became indifferent.

He wondered, what was she afraid of him doing?

Is it because he touched upon my secrets?

Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhou walked towards Liu Tangxi.

Liu Tangxi seemed not to have heard the question Wei Hanzhou had just asked. She straightened her clothes and took off the veil on her head and the veil on her face.

After taking it off, I smoothed my hair with my hands.

After finishing, seeing Wei Hanzhou sitting next to her, Liu Tangxi glanced at him sideways.

There was no expression on Wei Hanzhou's face, as if the question just now was not asked by him.

"Are you asking why I didn't go home alone just now?" Liu Tangxi deliberately misinterpreted his meaning. "Mom said that it's not safe on the road. I'm so beautiful. What if something happens? Right, husband?"

Then, Liu Tangxi saw Wei Hanzhou's face visibly stiffen, as if he was in great pain.

Liu Tangxi was very happy.

She deliberately didn't explain because he didn't explain clearly!

If you have the guts, explain it yourself!

Liu Tangxi was just thinking about it when he heard Wei Hanzhou's explanation.

"You have money and a car in town, why don't you leave here?"

As for Liu Tangxi's previous lie about amnesia, Wei Hanzhou didn't really believe it. Although he felt that Liu Tangxi's behavior was a little strange and that he was different from when they first met, he didn't really believe that a person would suddenly lose his memory after sleeping.

This doesn't make sense.

He had thought she would leave when she first came to town, but she didn't.

"Leaving? Where to?" Liu Tangxi looked puzzled.

Leave? What can I do with just over 600 coins? Moreover, she didn't have a pass or official documents, so she couldn't even leave the county. Isn't this courting death? As for how the original owner got to the capital, the book didn't specify it, but just used the four words "ran back to the capital". She was not familiar with this dynasty and had no idea.

Moreover, if she went to the capital, with the heroine in great danger, wouldn't she be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth? Just like the original owner, she was locked up in the family temple when she arrived.

After staying in Weijia Village for such a long time, she has gradually become familiar with this place and accustomed to it. Even Wei Hanzhou, who gave her a very bad first impression, has become much more pleasing to her.

Wei Hanzhou turned his head and looked at Liu Tangxi, his eyes so deep and unfathomable that it was hard to tell what he was really thinking at this moment.

"Husband, don't you want me anymore? Do you want to drive me away?" Liu Tangxi said pitifully.

As she spoke, she stretched out her slender hand, pinched the corner of Wei Hanzhou's clothes and shook it.

Wei Hanzhou looked down at her fingers as tender as white jade, pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes.

The day this woman first came, her eyes were extremely improper, and the look she gave him was full of disdain.

When he came out of the main room, he saw her trying to escape.

At the time, he was busy with his father's health and had no time to pay attention to her. He thought to himself that it was better for her to run away as it would save him one less trouble.

However, he really hated this ungrateful person who deceived his mother's trust with hypocritical means.

However, when he heard that his father vomited blood upon learning that she was missing and his condition seemed to have worsened, he regretted not taking care of her and hurried out to look for her.

As soon as I went out, I heard that she suddenly fainted at the door for some unknown reason.

When he woke up again, he made a deal with her.

Since she wanted to leave and he didn't want her to stay, the best thing to do was for the two of them to discuss it.

As long as his father's illness stabilized, he would allow her to leave.

But this girl seemed to have suddenly changed her personality overnight. Not only did she not think about leaving, she didn't even step out of the house except to wash up. Her meals were brought to her by others.

What happened next completely overturned his perception of her.

Her eyes changed. No longer showing resentment or arrogance, she became unusually gentle. Of course, this gentleness was towards others, but in private with him, she had a strange look on her face.

Like... a wild cat.

Her behavior changed. From the fourth day on, she quickly integrated into their family. She was very hardworking, filial to her parents, and generous. She taught her two sisters-in-law how to embroider, her two nieces how to embroider, and she also taught her nephews and nieces how to read.

Except for her bad attitude towards him, she seemed to be nice to everyone in the family.

As long as he comes back, everyone in the family will tell him how good he is. It seems that if he doesn't treat her well, it will be a huge mistake. It seems that he is the outsider.

"You know what I'm talking about."

Wei Hanzhou frowned, stared into Liu Tangxi's eyes, and spoke.

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi burst into tears, her eyes soon turned red, she held a handkerchief and sobbed, "Husband, I really don't know. When I woke up at home that day, the first person I saw was you. I can't remember where I was before, I just vaguely remember that I was beaten and sold, and when I was running away, I met my mother, who saved me with the family savings. I will never forget this kindness in my life."

Wei Hanzhou knew that the woman in front of him was very good at acting and often said inexplicable things, but somehow, he was still affected by her tears. When she looked at him pitifully with eyes full of mist, another voice in her heart appeared again.

He felt that although the woman's words were false, one thing was true. She had indeed changed. After sleeping, she was completely changed. Because he had been observing her and was close to her, he felt this very deeply.

Just as he couldn't explain why his father's illness suddenly recovered, he couldn't understand why she started to lose her memory and her temperament changed drastically after sleeping.

But Dad’s illness has indeed been cured, which is a happy thing.

She has indeed changed...

Also, her incredible magical skills.

There are too many things about this woman that cannot be explained.

Maybe, she really lost her memory as she said.

Or, as she said that day, selective amnesia?

When he realized that he was actually thinking along the lines of the woman in front of him, Wei Hanzhou paused.

Liu Tangxi had been staring at Wei Hanzhou's expression. Seeing that he looked better than before, she continued, "As for what my husband said about leaving, I really don't know where to start, and I don't know where to go."

Liu Tangxi described himself as being very pitiful.

Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi's eyes again, turned away, and said, "If you want to leave one day, just leave. I won't stop you."

"What if I don't want to leave? Will you chase me away?" Liu Tangxi asked seriously.

"No, if you don't want to leave, just stay here." Wei Hanzhou said.

Even though he didn't like her before, he wouldn't chase her away now. If she wanted to stay, she could be his wife. If she didn't want to stay and wanted to leave, he wouldn't stop her.

"But, be more restrained when you are outside in the future, and don't say weird things." Wei Hanzhou looked at the hand on his sleeve and added meaningfully, "And don't touch anything randomly."

Although this woman has the temperament of a wild cat, she is too kind. It would be troublesome if her magical ability was discovered by someone with ulterior motives.

Dad's illness has indeed been cured since she came. She also serves his parents wholeheartedly and teaches his nephews and nieces. Please take care of her as much as possible.

Wei Hanzhou used these excuses in his heart to explain his actions.

Now that the matter was officially discussed, Liu Tangxi was very happy and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

As for Wei Hanzhou's reminder, she didn't understand it because her mood was fluctuating greatly.

However, she is not a person who likes to show off. Even if she doesn't understand, she will not show her golden finger in front of others.

She thought Wei Hanzhou was annoyed that she was holding his sleeve, so, at Wei Hanzhou's reminder, she quickly let go of his sleeve.

However, Wei Hanzhou stood up, picked up the basket and wanted to leave.

Liu Tangxi quickly stopped him: "Wait!"

"What else are you worried about?" Wei Hanzhou turned around and asked.

He thought that he had said everything he needed to say. Moreover, the other party was a smart person, and whether he had amnesia or not, he should have understood what he meant.

Do you want to leave?

"Oh, no, I'm just too tired. I haven't rested enough. Let's go later." Liu Tangxi said naturally.

Looking at Liu Tangxi's rapidly changing expression, Wei Hanzhou was speechless.

So, was this just a show?

He shouldn't have any sympathy for this woman.

However, even though he thought so in his heart, Wei Hanzhou still did not leave alone.

As she said, this place is remote and it is not safe for a woman like her, especially...

Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi's face which was slightly red from the sun, and then looked away.

Especially, a woman like her who is not bad looking.

After Liu Tangxi had rested enough, she put on her veil and face mask and stood up from the stone.

Looking at Wei Hanzhou standing beside him, Liu Tangxi said with a smile: "Husband, let's go."

Next, Wei Hanzhou became taciturn again and didn't say a word.

Liu Tangxi was in a much better mood, chattering non-stop along the way, asking this and that.

Wei Hanzhou became impatient with the questions and would occasionally answer a few words.

As they walked, the two soon arrived at Weijia Village.

In order not to appear too conspicuous or impolite, Liu Tangxi took off her veil and face mask.

She knew that once she entered the village, she would meet many familiar people, many of whom were elders, and she had to say hello.

But I didn't expect that after I finally reached the end of the village and was about to reach home, I met an uninvited guest.

"Brother Wei."

Hearing this call, Liu Tangxi raised his eyebrows.

She remembered this girl. She met this girl the last time she went to the mountain with Li to look at apples. The girl looked at her with contempt, as if she looked down on her.

She seems to be the granddaughter of the old scholar from the neighboring Lijia Village?

Today the girl was wearing a pink dress. The fabric was different from the coarse cloth they wore, so it must have been expensive. Looking at the creases on the dress, it must have been newly put on, brand new.

Besides, the girl was wearing a half-new silver hairpin on her head. It looked like it was worth a few dollars.

She spent several days embroidering to earn a few dollars, but now other people can wear such expensive jewelry.

This Mr. Li’s family is rich!

I heard that Li Xiucai is teaching students, and it seems he has brought quite a few people with him.

"Miss Li." Wei Hanzhou responded.

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi stopped observing and turned to look at Wei Hanzhou's expression.

Just at this moment, Wei Hanzhou turned his head and looked over, and their eyes intertwined with Liu Tangxi's.

"This is Mr. Li's granddaughter, Miss Li." Wei Hanzhou introduced her to Liu Tangxi.

Liu Tangxi smiled, looked at the girl opposite him, and said, "Hello, Miss Li."

Li Yunxu finally gave Liu Tangxi a look and responded indifferently: "Hello."

Hearing these two words, Liu Tangxi narrowed her eyes slightly. The other party called Wei Hanzhou "Third Brother Wei", but did not call her "Third Sister Wei". There was something wrong. Thinking of what Li had said to her, Liu Tangxi felt more and more that there was something between the two.

Li Yunxu did not disappoint Liu Tangxi, and then said, "Brother Wei, I have something to tell you."

As she spoke, Li Yunxu glanced at Liu Tangxi.

One look at his eyes revealed that he wanted Liu Tangxi to leave and give them some space.

Liu Tangxi seemed not to understand and still stood there, looking at the two people in front of him with a smile.

Why would she leave? She was Wei Hanzhou's legal wife. Even if she wanted to leave, she would have to let Wei Hanzhou say it himself before she agreed.

She was just waiting to see how the taciturn Wei Hanzhou would say such "rude" words.

However, Wei Hanzhou disappointed her. He did not look at her, but said, "Miss Li, you can just say what you want to say. This is my wife, there is no need to be shy."

Hearing what Wei Hanzhou said, Liu Tangxi raised his eyebrows. Wei Hanzhou is quite polite.

Li Yunxu seemed to feel a little aggrieved. She pursed her lips and whispered, "Brother Wei, you misunderstood. Actually, my grandfather has some books about the exam and I wanted to show them to you."

Does this mean you want to give Wei Hanzhou a reference book?

It’s amazing. He directly found out what Wei Hanzhou cares about most.

Liu Tangxi looked at the two people with a smile without saying a word.

However, Wei Hanzhou refused without a second thought: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Li. These books must be very valuable. Mr. Li also cherishes them. I will not take away someone else's favor. I have something else to do at home, so I won't say more."

As he spoke, Wei Hanzhou turned to look at Liu Tangxi and said, "My wife, didn't you just say you were tired? Let's go home and rest."

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi couldn't help but shudder. Was Wei Hanzhou using her as a shield?

However, as Wei Hanzhou's wife, I can't let outsiders laugh at me, right?

"Yes, I've been walking for a whole morning and I'm so tired. Thank you for your consideration, my husband." Liu Tangxi said with a smile.

After saying that, he glanced at Li Yunxu, who looked unhappy, and gently reminded her: "Miss Li, the sun is too strong outside, you should go home quickly and avoid getting sunburned. Be careful on the road~"

Li Yunxu seemed to get even angrier after hearing this. She glared at Liu Tangxi, stomped her feet, turned around and left without saying a word.

Liu Tangxi curled the corner of her mouth and thought, no wonder Wei Hanzhou doesn't like her.

Turning around, he saw Wei Hanzhou had already left home. Liu Tangxi quickly caught up with him and asked, "I don't know how I have offended Miss Li. Why does Miss Li seem to have some opinion about me? Husband, what do you think?"

Wei Hanzhou glanced at her sideways and ignored her.

"It seems that my husband doesn't know either. Then I should go back and ask mom?" Liu Tangxi muttered softly.

Wei Hanzhou finally reacted. He stopped, pursed his lips, and looked at Liu Tangxi.

Liu Tangxi seemed unaware and still looked at Wei Hanzhou with a smile.

"I studied for a few days with Mr. Li, and Miss Li's mother once asked someone to bring Miss Li and I together." Wei Hanzhou spoke briefly and made clear the relationship between himself and Mr. Li's family.

Liu Tangxi was just joking just now, just to piss off Wei Hanzhou, but she didn't expect Wei Hanzhou to suddenly explain it to her.

Wei Hanzhou seemed to talk a little more today?

It's really strange.

Seeing Wei Hanzhou walking home, Liu Tangxi followed him back.

After arriving home, Wei Hanzhou went to the main hall to talk to Wei Laosan and Zhang about the apples, while Liu Tangxi went back to her room. She was not interested in Wei Hanzhou selling apples. Wei Hanzhou was such a smart and sinister person, it would be good if he didn't cheat others, how could he let others cheat him.

At dinner time in the evening, Liu Tangxi heard that Wei Hanzhou sold the apples at home at four cents per pound.

Suddenly, her admiration for Wei Hanzhou deepened.

"That's great. Four cents a pound. We have seven or eight hundred pounds at home. We can earn nearly three taels of silver." Wei Daniu said with a smile.

"Besides, we don't have to sell it when we are in a hurry. It is very convenient." Zhang also said.

In previous years, apples could not be sold immediately, so they had to be stored in the cellar and sold slowly.

I sell it for a dozen coins each time.

"I'll borrow a car tomorrow and take it there when Erhu and I go to town." Wei Daniu said.

Wei Hanzhou finished chewing the food in his mouth and said slowly, "Brother, don't bother. Someone in town will come to get the apples."

Wei Lao San knew about it this morning and said with a smile, "Yes, Lao San has already contacted them. You don't need to bother you two brothers."

"Then we just need to be responsible for picking them?" Wei Erhu asked with a smile.

The apples were so heavy that it was not easy for two people to carry them even if they borrowed a cart.

Then, Wei Hanzhou added, "We're only selling the few baskets of apples we picked this time. There's no rush for the rest."

"Ah? Third brother, what do you think?" Li asked in surprise. Her son hadn't told her in the morning, so she thought he had sold everything to the town.

Wei Hanzhou said: "I will go to the county in a few days to ask. If I can sell it for a higher price, I will naturally sell it to the county."

Liu Tangxi lowered her head to eat her meal, secretly giving Wei Hanzhou a thumbs up in her heart.

I was praising Wei Hanzhou in my heart when I heard him say, "However, the apples have to taste as good as they do now in order to sell at a high price."

Liu Tangxi smiled and thought, isn’t this easy? She could just go to the mountain and touch all the apple trees tomorrow.

Just as I was thinking about it, I felt a pair of eyes looking at me.

Liu Tangxi raised her eyes and looked back, only to see Wei Hanzhou glanced at her indifferently, with a calm look in his eyes.

Liu Tangxi's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that Wei Hanzhou really discovered it?

"It should be fine. Today, your mother, Bo Sheng and the other kids picked out a few green ones and tasted them. They are all very sweet." said Wei Lao San.

Wei Lao San didn't understand what was going on and thought his son was worried about the taste of the apples.

"Yeah, Dad is right, everything I eat is delicious." Liu Tangxi quickly interjected.

The reason I interjected this was because Wei Hanzhou's gaze was too disturbing.

"I had one last night and it was delicious," Li added.

"Well, I guess the rest are delicious too." Liu Tangxi replied.

After hearing this, Wei Hanzhou disappeared from sight.

Liu Tangxi breathed a sigh of relief.

This incident prompted Wei Lao San to sigh: "It's strange to say, the taste of apples this year is really unique, and I don't know why. In my entire life, Dad has never heard of the taste of apples changing so much after just a few years of planting."

Liu Tangxi's heart, which had just relaxed, became tense again.

Wei Hanzhou said, "The sun, water, and soil all affect the taste of apples. Maybe there is more sun this year, or maybe the stream water flowing down from the mountain is different from before."

Wei Lao San nodded and said, "Well, it's not impossible. No one knows where the source of the mountain stream is."

"You old man, why do you think so much? Isn't it enough that the apples taste good? Who cares why?" said Li.

Li's idea was simple: if apples tasted good, he could make more money, and making more money was a good thing.

"Just like your illness, the county doctors said you were dying and asked us to prepare for your death. But the third brother got married and you recovered in the blink of an eye. Your medicine didn't change, so why did you get better?" Li said, "It's just like an apple suddenly becomes sweet."

Wei Lao San was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter and said, "The old lady is right. Why think so much? Anyway, our family has been much smoother this year."

"That's right. Everything has been getting better since my third brother's wife came to our house," said Zhang.

Now that Liu Tangxi taught her daughter embroidery and reading, she was very grateful and naturally spoke well of her.

Zhou did the same, following Zhang's words and praising Liu Tangxi.

When Liu Tangxi first heard these words, she was quite happy. After all, being a blessed person is better than being a dead person, right? However, when she saw everyone in the family looking at her, she began to feel a little uncomfortable.

"What are you talking about, sisters-in-law? It's all because of our parents' good deeds and this is the blessing from God." Liu Tangxi brought the matter onto Wei Laosan and his wife.

Wei Hanzhou also took it and said, "Indeed, good people are rewarded. Dad and mom have done good deeds all their lives and never done evil to anyone, so they are rewarded with good fortune."

Everyone likes to hear nice words; Mrs. Li and Wei Lao San smiled so hard that their teeth were showing.

Wei Lao San concluded: "So, when you go out in the future, do more good deeds and never do things that will make others look down on you."

"Yes, Dad is right."

Finally, Wei Lao San looked at Wei Hanzhou and said, "Especially you, Lao San, you are a scholar now. If you can achieve higher achievements in the future, you should do more for the people. Don't learn from those people who collect money and oppress the people after they pass the imperial examinations."

There is something else behind these words.

Liu Tangxi immediately had a higher opinion of Wei Lao San.

With Wei Lao San nagging in Wei Hanzhou's ear every day, it is difficult for Wei Hanzhou, as a filial son, to become a bad person.

"Yes, son, I've remembered it." Wei Hanzhou stood up and said solemnly.

Liu Tangxi looked at Wei Hanzhou's serious look and felt that he was very different from what was described in the book. It seemed that the Wei Hanzhou standing in front of her was no longer the paper man in the book. ,,
