Shen Xiangzhi cooked the meal, and after the meal, An Hongdou took the initiative to wash the dishes.
When she returned to the house, Shen Xiangzhi had already taken out the book and lit a candle on the ground, "It just so happens that I have nothing to do at the moment, come here and I will teach you how to read."
An Hongdou walked over obediently, moved a stool and sat next to him.
After studying for a while, Shen Xiangzhi asked her to read the words he had just taught her.
But what surprised him was that An Hongdou actually read it out word for word, and she almost recognized even the words he pointed out individually.
As for those who admitted their mistakes, it was An Hongdou who did it on purpose.
"Are you really illiterate?" If that were true, then An Hongdou's learning ability was too fast, and Shen Xiangzhi couldn't help but doubt it.
An Hongdou had already prepared for this matter, so she was not panicked at all. She said, "Some time ago, I went to my second uncle's house to borrow two books that my sister didn't need. I studied them at home for a while and asked her about the things I didn't understand. How is it? Did I read them correctly?"
Shen Xiangzhi nodded in understanding.
No wonder, it turns out I had learned it in advance.
Pointing to the words in the book, Shen Xiangzhi patiently told her which one she had read wrong and corrected her true pronunciation.
At night, after washing up and going to bed, An Hongdou got up and went out again.
In the bathroom, she took a candle and a lighter from the space in order to see more clearly.
However, the two deep red lines on the test paper in front of her made her heart skip a beat.
Oh shit, it can’t be that accurate?
An Hongdou quickly took out two more test strips from the space, but to her surprise, the result was the same.
After dealing with everything in the bathroom with a confused mind, An Hongdou returned to the room in a daze. When she went to the bed, she accidentally stepped on Chen Xiangzhi, making him scream.
"An Hongdou, are you blind? Can't you see me at such a big age? My legs were almost broken by your step!" Shen Xiangzhi yelled with bared teeth.
It was rare that An Hongdou, who normally couldn't stand being taken advantage of, was so quiet at this moment. She didn't even say a word of rebuttal and went back to her bed and fell asleep.
"Hey, are you okay?" Shen Xiangzhi felt that this woman looked a little strange.
Why do you look like an idiot after going to the toilet late at night?
Could it be that I’m possessed by evil spirits?
Thinking about it, Shen Xiangzhi secretly stretched his arm out of the quilt, trying to secretly reach into An Hongdou's quilt.
However, just as he was about to reach out and twist it, his wrist was grabbed by An Hongdou.
The force made him want to collapse.
"What do you want to do?" An Hongdou's voice was too calm, and that was why he felt that something was wrong.
Shen Xiangzhi had a tense expression, "I didn't mean to do anything, I just wanted to touch your new quilt to see if it's warm."
Chen Xiangzhi's quilt was also new. He came all the way here to be an educated youth, so he would not force himself to bring an old quilt with him. He was just finding an excuse for himself.
An Hongdou didn't know if she heard it or not, but she let go of his wrist and said directly in a cold voice: "Go to sleep and don't touch me."
Shen Xiangzhi couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
He should be the one who is worried about the other party's physical behavior, right?
Forget it, just go to sleep, whatever happens.
He didn't know that An Hongdou had been lying there with her eyes open, unable to fall asleep for a very long time.
In the middle of the night, she got up and tried it again, and there were still two bars.
This time, she seemed to have finally accepted the fact and went back to bed and fell asleep peacefully.
The four brothers of the An family came very early, and Shen Xiangzhi got up early and dug a cellar in the yard with them.
As soon as An Hongdou opened her eyes, she saw Old Lady An walk in and sit directly beside her bed. She started to scold her, "Girl, don't you see what time it is? They have been up and working all morning, and you haven't even opened your eyes yet. Aren't you afraid that your friends will dislike you?"
Mrs. An looked outside and said, "It's a good thing that this is my own brother who came to help. If it was someone else who came to work for you and couldn't even eat at this time, I'm afraid he would be angry!"
An Hongdou suddenly felt upset, for unknown reasons.
He sat up straight and said, "Then I'll get up and cook."
Mrs. An held her hand and noticed that An Hongdou's face looked a little strange, so she explained, "Could that be what Mom meant? Your brothers didn't come to work for you just to make a living. Mom just wanted to tell you that you're married now, and once you're married you're an adult, and you need to act like an adult. You can't be as willful as you were at home before..."
An Hongdou listened, trying her best to suppress her emotions, and said, "I understand."
"I'm glad you got it." Faced with An Hongdou's condition, Mrs. An felt distressed and helpless. "Forget it, forget it. If you want to sleep, just sleep a little longer. Mom will make you breakfast today. But don't do this again in the future."
After saying that, Mrs. An walked out.
What Mrs. An said was right. Once you get married, you are an adult and have to take on your responsibilities no matter how unwilling you are.
An Hongdou was not sleeping either, but chose to get up.
In the bathroom, she looked at the test paper with two bars again and was no longer in the mood to do anything else.
When they walked into the yard, Old Lady An just called them to eat. An Hongdou just said that she didn't want to eat anymore and then walked out.
Mrs. An asked her, "Where are you going so early in the morning without eating?"
"Let's go for a walk in the mountain." An Hongdou said without stopping at all.
Fourth Brother An obviously felt something was wrong and asked, "Mom, what happened to my little sister?"
I can’t describe the feeling, it’s just... too indifferent.
"Who knows what's wrong with her again? This damn girl is really troublesome." Mrs. An was so angry that her chest felt stuffy, but she was also worried. "I just said a few words to her and told her not to sleep so late and get up so late in the future. It's just such a small matter. Is she angry with me, her own mother?"
"My little sister should... not be angry." Fourth Brother An was not too sure. If she was still the same An Hongdou, then she would definitely be angry. But my little sister suddenly became better during this period and no longer had conflicts with her family, so she shouldn't be angry.
"Mom, brother, you guys eat first, I'll go out and take a look." Shen Xiangzhi said, and hurried to catch up with An Hongdou.
"Hey, what are you crazy about?" Shen Xiangzhi caught up with An Hongdou, but didn't dare to attack her. He could only keep the same distance from her and turned to ask her.
An Hongdou turned to look at him, "It's good that you came out. I have something I want to talk to you about. Let's find a place where there's no one."
In fact, there is no one here.
The place where they lived was already outside the village, and An Hongdou came out but didn't go inside.
