"Guo'er, my dear daughter, you scared me to death!"
As he spoke, he took another closer look at the wound on her head: "It must be very painful! Oh my, my Guo'er has suffered a lot this time."
The more Tang's mother looked at it, the angrier she became. This was all caused by that irrational boy!
Wen Guoer looked at the woman in front of her. She looked to be in her fifties. Her hair was long enough to reach the base of her neck and was neatly pinned behind her ears. Her eyes gleamed with wisdom on her thin face.
"This is my mother-in-law in this world?"
The original owner's memories made Wen Guoer feel a liking for Tang's mother, though she still didn't know how to face her and the changes that were happening.
"Mom, I'm fine. I was just distracted and made you worry." Wen Guoer imitated the original owner's tone and said her first words in this era.
"My girl, don't listen to that brat. Ever since I brought you back home, you've been my wife, and no one can change that!
You take a good rest first, I'll have that brat come over and apologize to you!"
"mother......"
Before Wen Guoer could finish her words, Tang's mother had already rushed out of the door to deal with her eldest son.
Looking at the dim room in front of her, Wen Guoer's thoughts were in a mess.
There is no going back to the old world! How should I continue my life?
Looking back at history in my mind, during this period, you needed a letter of introduction to go out, food was rationed, and you had to use tickets to buy things.
It is impossible to leave because there is no way to go.
Stay? But how can I stay now?
I never thought that there would be a day when I, Princess Wen, would be rejected in marriage!
Oh my God!
Wen Guoer calmed down and thought.
The most important thing now is to find a way to stay here! Yes, in this era, it is not easy to meet someone as good as Tang's mother.
As for this daughter-in-law, forget it!
Putting aside the fact that the man doesn't agree! Even if he agrees, I, Wen Guoer, the dignified little princess of the Wen family and a highly educated woman of the new era, can't be completely unmotivated, right?
Thinking back to my previous life, I spent 25 years carefully selecting, but I still didn’t find anyone I liked.
"Cough, cough!"
A voice came, and Wen Guoer's thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
I saw a tall figure bending over the door frame. He was estimated to be over 1.85 meters tall, standing straight with a solemn and stern look.
He held a porcelain bowl in his hand, with steam floating in front of him.
The oil refining lamp happened to be lit in the opposite direction of him. At this time, he was facing away from the light, so Wen Guoer could not see his face clearly, only a sharp outline.
"Mom made you some steamed egg custard."
Tang Zhan said this, placing the bowl steadily on the square table in front of her. (In Heilongjiang Province, people usually eat cross-legged on the kang, so a square table is often placed on the kang.)
Wen Guoer sat up, picked up the spoon from the bowl, and stuffed a spoonful into her mouth! She thought it tasted pretty good, so she kept putting spoonful after spoonful into her mouth.
She was really hungry now! When had she, the great Princess Wen, ever been so fond of an egg custard before?
Tang Zhan stood beside her, watching her eat the egg custard spoonful by spoonful as if no one was around. Although she ate very quickly, her manners were still very elegant.
The dim light of the kerosene lamp just happened to hit the side of her face. This was the first time he saw her clearly.
On her plain oval face, there are a pair of big eyes that seem to be able to speak, and on the side of her small nose, there is a small black mole. Far from being ugly, it makes her look more smart and playful.
Her cherry-like lips were still glowing with moisture because she had just eaten egg custard.
The gauze on the forehead is particularly conspicuous, adding a touch of fragility to this plain face.
Was this injury caused by me? Tang Zhan couldn't help but ask himself.
"You don't want to marry me?"
Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Wen Guoer was the first to break the silence.
Hearing her speak, Tang Zhan was a little surprised! He didn't expect her to speak so suddenly! He didn't expect her to ask such a direct question, a question he didn't know how to ask.
"I know there's no emotional connection between us, and you're not happy about getting married rashly. I heard everything you and mother said today, and I respect your decision."
Guessing that he probably didn't want to pay attention to her, Wen Guoer finished speaking to herself and looked up to see his reaction.
Meeting the sudden gaze, Tang Zhan was at a loss for what to do! She agreed just like that? This girl seemed a little different from what he had imagined.
"But can we not tell Mom and Dad yet? I'm afraid Mom will worry.
It’s not too late to tell your parents when you find someone you like. We don’t need to get a marriage certificate. Not everyone gets one now anyway.”
After saying this, Wen Guoer breathed a sigh of relief! She thought to herself, I finally had the nerve to say everything I needed to say!
The rest depends on this man's attitude! After all, she has been so humble, he can't possibly kick her out, right?
Tang Zhan was once again shocked by her behavior. Was this the normal thinking of a little village girl? Didn't she stay at home all year round, never leaving the house?
Judging from what happened today, in such a short period of time, she not only thought of a way to break the deadlock, but she even considered the remedial measures after the situation was broken!
"You sleep in this room tonight, otherwise, mother will have to get the broom again. We can just sleep on our separate sides." Wen Guoer added after seeing that he was silent for a long time.
She couldn't give him any chance to refuse, so she quickly made their bed.
"Okay! I'll go out and wash up first."
A low and magnetic voice came, and Wen Guoer didn't expect that he would agree just like that.
At this moment, Tang Zhan stood in the cold courtyard and reflected:
What had he been doing in there just now? Why couldn't he refuse all her questions? And why couldn't he say a single word?
If this was a negotiation, he lost completely!
