Chapter 10: The Young and Fresh Sixteen-Year-Old
Chi Zhao was so touched by her husband's pitiful state that she secretly decided to bring back more food to appease him.
Although he's not my real boyfriend, he's my mission target, and I have to ensure his safety and happiness, right?
Okay, let's try to appease her.
Yu Zhouwan was afraid that his wife would be angry with him, and he was afraid that he would not satisfy her on the first day of his marriage. So he nervously changed the subject and obediently relayed what Xu Nian had said that day to her.
Chi Zhao certainly didn't know Xu Nian, but since the other party said that, she must be a friend of the original owner.
She silently memorized the name, then nodded as if she knew him.
She left the male supporting character with the eggs, then turned and went to town.
The male supporting character had just arrived at her house and didn't have any clothes that fit him. The various whip marks on his body also needed to be treated.
She wasn't very good at shopping, so she just bought a few clothes that she thought looked nice and that suited her slim figure. She also went to the pharmacy and bought some ointment that the doctor said was more effective, along with some snacks, and then went home.
He carried a small bundle on his back and walked up from the foot of the mountain.
When he arrived at the door, he saw Yu Zhouwan sitting in the yard washing clothes. He had just arrived, but it was as if he knew the layout of the house by heart, and he even found the washboard for him.
The system flapped its wings, its two bee legs clasped together, completely absorbed in the moment. [Host, look! The male supporting character is so domestic, he'd be perfect as a husband!]
Go away.
She had always been indifferent to the system and disliked it very much.
The system got yelled at again and left indignantly.
Chi Zhao hesitated for a moment, trying to remember the male supporting character's name. After thinking for a while, she could only remember one character: "Zhou".
Helpless, she could only call out to people, "Xiao Zhou".
Upon hearing the familiar address, Yu Zhouwan suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes instantly shining like stars, "My lady, you called me."
He wiped the water off his hands and jogged over from the yard.
Chi Zhao responded, "Okay, here's your candied hawthorn and some pastries. Go eat them."
She seemed to be trying to appease people with these snacks.
Yu Zhouwan had given up on eating candied hawthorns, hoping to live a normal life from now on. Unexpectedly, she still bought some. Startled, she opened her red lips slightly and subconsciously shook her head, "I, I won't eat them, my wife should eat them."
His wife glanced at him and said, "I was just joking with you earlier, why are you holding a grudge? I bought it for you anyway, I don't like it."
Yanzhou usually likes to eat something sweet, and the first time she brought him sugar cubes, he was very happy to eat them.
However, food is precious in the apocalypse, and sugar is even more expensive, so she rarely buys it for her boyfriend.
Now it's too late to buy it for him.
Chi Zhao lowered his eyes, his expression somewhat helpless.
Yu Zhouwan looked at the candied hawthorn wrapped in oil paper, pursed her lips, and whispered, "I don't hold grudges."
"Okay, then take it."
"oh."
He accepted it obediently, his tone not revealing anything, but he couldn't suppress the upturned corners of his mouth, he was overjoyed.
My wife bought me candied hawthorns!
Like other women who dote on the men in their homes, she would bring food for the men waiting for her return.
For the first time in her life, Yu Zhouwan experienced the feeling of being loved.
In his heart, this is love!
As Chi Zhao carried the bundle inside, she said, "Oh, right, there are a few more outfits. Come and try them on later to see if they fit."
Yu Zhouwan: !!!
I told you my wife loves me!
Although she bought me, and I was just bought, my wife still loves me!
The boy's biggest wish in life is to meet a woman who loves and cherishes him, and then live a good life with her. He will be very obedient and take very good care of her.
"My wife..."
Yu Zhouwan was moved to tears and rushed forward immediately.
Chi Zhao shoved a bundle of clothes into his hands. His handsome face flushed red as he hesitated, "This... so much!"
"Well, we don't have any clothes for you at home. You can't keep wearing women's clothes. Go change and see if they fit."
"oh……"
He was wearing his wife's clothes, which were indeed inappropriate.
The boy obediently turned around and closed the door. Chi Zhao had just sat down and drunk a cup of cold tea when it got dark.
Chi Zhao:?
No, I'm still inside. Shouldn't you be the one going inside to change your clothes?
Why is the kitchen door closed?
Somewhat bewildered, she looked up and saw that the other person was taking off their clothes right in front of her.
The dusty outer garment was removed, then the inner lining was removed, and finally, the snow-white and delicate skin was revealed.
Chi Zhao was stunned.
It took her a while to come to her senses. She quickly lowered her eyes slightly, thinking to herself, "The male supporting character isn't shy at all."
She didn't look closely and therefore didn't realize that the blush on the other person's face had already spread to their neck.
A section of her fair neck was stained red; she was actually extremely embarrassed.
He just kept telling himself that it was okay in front of his wife, that it was okay as long as she was his wife.
The new clothes were gently changed into, and the young man twisted his body shyly, asking, "Does it fit, my wife?"
Chi Zhao only dared to look up after he finished dressing, glanced at him, and silently nodded, "Yes, it looks good."
The dress was light green, which made the young man's skin appear as white as snow, and he looked like a gentleman of jade.
She knew it would look good; with a male supporting character like that, he wouldn't look bad even if he wore mourning clothes.
Hearing her say it looked good, Yu Zhouwan happily rushed over and stood beside her, saying, "Then, then I'll change into another one. Can you help me take a look, my lady?"
He leaned very close, and Chi Zhao vaguely smelled a warm fragrance that seemed familiar.
She stared blankly for a moment before snapping out of it, secretly chuckling to herself that her boyfriend had only been gone a short while and she was already hallucinating.
"You don't need to show me. I just picked out these clothes randomly. If you don't like them, I'll take you to town another day to buy some yourself."
She doesn't look.
Yu Zhouwan's shy smile froze, her lips slowly pressed together, a hint of disappointment in her eyes, and she lowered her head, "Oh..."
He was being incredibly inconsiderate. His wife was the breadwinner and the head of the household, so she must have a lot to do. Yet he let her watch him change clothes. He was being completely unreasonable and was sure to upset her.
Chi Zhao adapted quite well to life in ancient times. Although she had no special abilities, she ate and drank well every day and lived a very good life.
These foods wouldn't taste so good in the apocalypse, and the thought of having to take her boyfriend back with her after completing the mission to revive him made her feel a little disappointed.
Yu Zhouwan also became more and more adept at living a happy and stable life after getting married, no longer being beaten, except that his wife never touched him, which made him a little worried.
The wife said that he was too young to do that kind of thing, but the other villagers didn't say that.
They all say that a boy is at his most tender and attractive age when he is sixteen, and once he passes that age, he becomes an old man.
No woman likes an older man.
Yu Zhouwan absentmindedly tapped his clothes with a mallet while the man beside him chattered on about how to seduce women, and he listened to every single word he heard.
until……
"Xiao He, my dad asked me to invite you to our house for dinner. Are you coming?"
"Oh, it's Sister Xu Nian! Sister Xu Nian, I'm coming right now, wait for me."
Xu Nian is Xiao He's fiancée. According to Xiao He, their engagement was made possible by his occasional seduction, which kept his fiancée interested in him.
"I'm leaving now, I'll come find you to do laundry together next time."
"Um……"
In front of outsiders, Yu Zhouwan appears somewhat taciturn.
