Chapter 8 The Unlucky Wife 8



Did I make the wrong decision to cancel the engagement?

Lu Shengping found that he could not ignore Xiaoman's childish words, no matter how hard he tried.

After Wu Yuer got married, the Lu family suddenly realized that their young master was no longer young.

When she reached the age to get married, she looked around the village but couldn't find a suitable candidate.

Xiaofeng Village is not a big village, with only about a hundred people.

After excluding the old, young, married, incompetent and engaged girls, there are very few left.

Since there is no suitable place in this village, the Lu family will not stick to this small village, and nearby villages will also be fine.

Just two days ago, a relative of Lu Shengping's, his uncle's elders introduced a young unmarried girl from their village who was said to be very beautiful.

Lu's father took Lu Shengping to see the girl. Although she was not as pretty as his cousin praised her to be, she was prettier than the average girl in the village.

Although the girl was pretty, her behavior was a bit frivolous.

As soon as Lu Pingsheng entered the house, he couldn't take his eyes off the shy young man, and he was very presumptuous.

Lu Shengping didn't like such a frivolous girl, but the girl's family was very satisfied with Lu Shengping.

The young man is good-looking, with long eyebrows, beautiful eyes, a nose like a hanging gall bladder, and thin upturned lips. He looks smart and intelligent. If he marries into the family, he will be a pillar supporting the family.

That family had a good idea, but Lu Pingsheng was unwilling to do so.

The girl he wanted to find was definitely not that superficial. He wanted to find...

The figure of Wu Yuer suddenly flashed through his mind, and Lu Shengping suppressed the sudden throbbing and shame in his heart with his teeth lightly clenched and his thin lips.

His face turned red with shame because of the shameful thoughts.

"What?"

Wu Yuer, who almost knocked over the basin filled with bowls by the well, stood up suddenly, with Li Lansheng standing very close to her.

Unexpectedly, the two were so close to each other. The little girl, who had just stood up, couldn't stand steadily and quickly took two steps back.

Li Lansheng saw her trying to avoid him, and his expression suddenly became gloomy, which made Wu Yuer, who was angry, unable to see the other person's expression clearly.

"I can understand you moving to the village at the foot of the mountain. After all, our Wu family is very poor. Just go ahead, there's nothing for me to do."

Sometimes Wu Yuer couldn't figure out what her nominal husband was thinking.

He looked down on her, let alone liked her.

Since you don't like her, just move to the manor yourself. Why bring her there? Just to keep her as a decoration?

Her home is here and she's not going anywhere.

The young man in a moon-white robe was bathed in the puzzled gaze of the little girl.

Li Lansheng, who had pursed his lips out of nervousness for no reason, saw the little girl's wet hands and forgot the explanation on his lips.

Wu Yuer saw that the man who was not in a hurry to open his mouth slowly took out the handkerchief from his arms and held it in front of her.

Li Lansheng said softly, not looking at the girl's puzzled eyes but staring at her wet hands with his head down.

"Wipe your hands first."

The handkerchief is brightly colored sky blue, and the cranes embroidered on it are lifelike.

I'm afraid there isn't a single handkerchief with such exquisite embroidery and materials in the entire Luping Town.

Maybe these were precious things that could only be found in big places like counties or state capitals, but now Li Lansheng asked her to wipe her hands.

Wu Yuer, feeling that her hands were not as valuable as the handkerchief, retracted her hands and moved them behind her back.

She pursed her lips unconsciously, wanting to say, I won’t wipe it off.

The young man's face suddenly turned gloomy. Doesn't she like him at all?

I don’t want a jade hairpin when I give her a gift, and I don’t want a handkerchief when she gives me a gift. The distinction is so clear.

I didn't want him to leave earlier, I was just embarrassed to make it clear.

No wonder she was unwilling to move in with me, no wonder she was avoiding me all day long, it turned out his feeling was right.

The girl avoided him on purpose.

The man was so angry at the girl who showed resistance that he laughed and walked forward to grab the girl's hand hidden behind her back. His strong force did not allow Wu Yuer to resist.

At this time, the noble and refined man did not mind that the hand he was holding was covered with water stains.

Li Lansheng lowered his eyes and carefully wiped Wu Yuer's wet hands with a handkerchief, including the palms, the edges of her fingers.

At this time, Li Lansheng looked more like a married man than ever before.

The purpose of a man from Luanfeng Country getting married is to take care of his wife.

She makes the bed for her wife, lights incense and prepares clothes, serves her meals, does housework, and raises children.

When I think about it carefully, it turns out that the young man failed in every aspect.

Wu Yuer, who was waiting for others to wipe their hands, thought that she had learned a lesson and would definitely find a husband with a good temper and a compatible character in the future.

She would not serve a young man like Li Lansheng who was difficult to serve, who was so unreasonable and confusing that she would not listen to anyone.

Fortunately, fortunately the two of them explained it, fortunately she only had to endure it for a few years before she could be free.

The heavy stone hanging in her heart finally settled down and Wu Yuer was defeated in an argument by the stubborn young man.

In the afternoon, all the Wu family members gathered together.

Li Lansheng originally planned to ask Wu Yuer to announce the news that they were moving out, but he saw that Wu Yuer was hesitant and refused to speak.

If you can't bear to speak, okay! I'll help you.

"Father, mother, brother."

A whole family who can't even get up from their food bowls.

Wu's father: "Huh?"

Wu Mu: “Huh?”

Wu Da: “Huh?”

Wu Er: "Huh?"

Wu San: "Huh?"

After going through the three rounds of doubts, the young man, without changing his expression or heartbeat, slowly put down the food in his hand that he had hardly touched.

Everyone wiped their mouths together, their dark eyes filled with innocent doubts.

Wu Yuer couldn't bear it, so she reached under the table and tugged at her husband's sleeve, begging him to stop talking.

Thinking of the love her parents and brother had given her, Wu Yuer, who didn't want to leave them, heard that the man next to her seemed not to notice her hint.

He spoke slowly and explained why they were planning to move out.

Father Wu: “Oh~”

Wu Mu: “Oh~”

Wu Da, Wu Er, Wu San: "Oh~"

Wu's father was very decisive and said without hesitation: "Go!"

Wu Mu echoed: "Go, go."

Wu Da, Wu Er, Wu San: "Go ahead. If you want to go home for dinner, just come back. It's just a few steps away. We're not even out of the village."

Wu Yuer fed the dog reluctantly, his eyes wide open, filled with grievance.

It turns out that she is the only one who is truly sentimental and reluctant to leave.

Wu Fu pours porridge into his mouth.

Brothers pouring porridge into their mouths.

And the black mother eating mixed wild vegetables.

"I don't want to eat anymore. I'm going to go find my grandparents."

He put down his chopsticks and walked out the door. Li Lansheng heard the noise and turned his head to see Wu Yuer standing up. Without thinking too much, he stood up too.

The two of them followed one after the other, with a gap of less than half a second between them, and they both immersed themselves in the moonlight outside the house.

Wu Da: "Is my sister angry?"

Wu San, who was slurping his food, said, "Brother, you're overthinking it."

Wu San put down his bowl and said, "Don't you think your brother-in-law is too clingy?"

Father Wu looked at him with contempt, saying, "You unmarried cucumber, you know nothing."

Wu Mu: Haha, she didn’t say anything.
