Chapter 231: Three days without punishment
Seeing that Jiang was getting anxious, Xu Wencheng quickly hid behind Song Yuntang.
"I don't care. I listen to my sister-in-law."
Xu Qingye seemed to be used to it. After unloading the mule, he took it to the cowshed to feed it hay.
Song Yuntang was forced to be caught between Xu Wencheng and Jiang, feeling a little embarrassed.
But Xu Wencheng had already dragged her into this, and it seemed impossible for her to remain silent.
"What mom said is right. When I was young, I had enough energy, so I didn't feel anything. It was okay to be cool once or twice, but over time, I got older and my energy declined, and the symptoms appeared. Today is indeed cooler than the previous few days. It is especially cold at night in the mountains. Adding a thin quilt is just right at night."
After hearing this, Jiang pointed at Xu Wencheng and said, "Listen, listen, how can the words passed down by our ancestors be false?"
Xu Wencheng still looked unconvinced.
"That's because my sister-in-law is partial to my mother, so she said that on purpose."
Seeing this, Jiang really grabbed the broom in the corner and said, "You little bastard, if I don't punish you for three days, you will start to tear the roof off the house, right?"
Seeing this, Xu Wencheng hurried to his room and returned to his room.
"Mom, I'm just teasing you, hahahaha."
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed the door of his room with a bang.
Jiang put the broom back in the corner and sighed as she looked into Xu Wencheng's room.
"This damn brat will be pissed off to death sooner or later!" She turned to look at Song Yuntang who was standing beside her. Thinking of her rude behavior just now, she felt a little embarrassed. "Tang'er, don't take him seriously. This brat needs to be beaten. He will feel itchy if he is not beaten. But don't worry, mother will never do this to you and Qingye."
Speaking of Xu Qingye, Jiang's face was full of relief.
"But speaking of it, Qingye has been sensible since he was young, and he has never made me so anxious and angry before."
She held her chest and let out a long breath.
"Oh, I'm really pissed off. Let me go back to the house and drink some water."
After saying that, he walked towards the room.
Song Yuntang had a faint smile on her face. She thought this family was very interesting. She went into the house to get a basin of water from the kitchen, washed herself carefully, and changed into clean clothes.
When I washed my clothes and returned to the house, I saw Xu Qingye packing his luggage silently.
"Do you need my help?" she said.
Xu Qingye shook his head slightly, "I don't have much stuff, I've already packed it up."
Song Yuntang leaned sideways to take a look. A few books and two sets of clothes could fit into a box.
"If I go with you tomorrow, do I need to bring my luggage?"
Xu Qingye turned around and looked at her. "Do you really want to go with me? Tomorrow, you will have to help me find a place to stay. After you find a place to stay, you will have to clean it up. It will be very tiring. If you really want to go, you can go two days later. By then, the place will be ready and you can move in directly when you get there."
Song Yuntang turned his head to look at him, "Do I look like someone who can't endure hardship?"
Xu Qingye continued to take a book from the cabinet.
"Not really, but I don't want you to be too tired."
She has lived in the Lin Mansion for thirteen years. She used to be a rich lady who had never done housework, but now she has her own home and has to do everything by herself.
He couldn't give her a very good life for the time being, but he didn't want her to suffer with him.
Song Yuntang lowered his eyes and spoke after a moment.
"Xu Qingye, I don't think we look like a couple."
Xu Qingye looked at her, "Why do you have such an idea?"
"We have been married for seven days, right?" Song Yuntang came to sit beside the bed. "We don't really have much to say every day. Although you take good care of me and I respect you, I always feel that we are too polite to each other."
"You are still young, I am afraid some of my actions may scare you, and I have also said that I will give you time to adapt to this role." After thinking for a while, he said, "Well, if you want to go to the county town with me, then go ahead, I will try to spend more time with you."
Song Yuntang pinched his sleeve and muttered softly.
"It sounds very reluctant."
Xu Qingye smiled helplessly, "No need to force me. After we get to the county town, you can stay as long as you want. If you are willing to stay by my side forever, I will be happy to do that too."
Hearing this, Song Yuntang stood up, took out a set of thicker clothes and put them in his suitcase.
"I'll stay for a few days and I'll be back after I find you a good place to stay. You need to be well again, so you can't be too sloppy about where you live. Besides, I still have to look after things in town. Even if you want me to stay a few more days, it won't work."
Looking at the lotus-colored dress placed together with his own clothes, Xu Qingye closed the box with a faint smile.
"Okay, whatever you say."
"Go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Yuntang had already climbed onto the bed.
Xu Qingye placed the box near the door, turned off the lights, and lay down beside Song Yuntang.
Looking sideways at the girl's petite body, he turned sideways, slowly approached, and finally put his arms around her waist, pulling her towards himself, so that she was closer to him.
Song Yuntang's muscles were tense.
"What are you doing?"
The man closed his eyes and his Adam's apple moved.
"I want you to feel that we are more like a couple."
Seeing that he was just hugging her and not doing anything else, Song Yuntang gradually relaxed his vigilance. After a while, he felt sleepy and slowly fell asleep.
Xu Qingye wasn't as good at sleeping as her.
He has a beautiful and pretty girl in his arms, and she is his little wife. Even if he acts indifferent, he is still a normal man after all.
After the burning heat in his body invaded him again and again, he had to let go and lie back in his seat properly. He silently recited the Heart Clearing Mantra many times in his heart before he finally felt a little sleepy.
The temperature dropped sharply tonight, and even with a thin quilt, it was still a bit chilly.
Originally there was a warm chest behind her, and Song Yuntang didn't feel cold. Now that the warm chest left her, she began to look for the source of heat in her sleep.
She instinctively moved towards Xu Qingye and hugged his arms tightly.
Feeling the soft body pressed against his arms, the man, who was a little sleepy at first, held his forehead with his hand helplessly, and looked down at the girl who was nestled beside him. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he did not have the heart to disturb her sweet dream. He pulled the quilt up behind her, closed his eyes and continued to recite the Heart Cleansing Mantra silently.
Before I knew it, I had slept until the next morning.
When I woke up, it was already light outside.
There were voices coming from the yard.
"Mom, you don't need to give me money, I have it."
"Mother knows you have it. Take this ten taels and find a better place for Qingye to live. Our family is counting on him."
"Now that we are married, we can't rely on our parents for everything. I went to the county town with him this time to find him a courtyard with a better environment to live in. Naturally, I set aside this part of the budget. Mother will use this money for household expenses. If the money is really not enough at that time, I will ask mother for more."
"Although studying requires a lot of money, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Your parents may not be able to help you, but they will do their best. At the very least, your grandparents and uncles can also support you. They helped a lot when Qingye was studying a few years ago. It won't be too late to repay those who are good to you in the future."
"Oh, I see."
