Chapter 95: The Red Bridal Chamber

Chapter 95: The Red Bridal Chamber

At Shugen's sister's house, Su Zhi, Li's sister, Jinhua's aunt Zhao Feng and several other women sat together and chatted. Three women, one drama. This was already more than three women.

Su Zhi has been staying at home these past few days to keep in touch with the Holy Beast's family. Shen Zian told her to go out for a walk and talk to others about the Holy Beast's family, and let the people in the village know about the Holy Beast. Now that the Holy Beast has come home, it can stop relatives who want to take advantage of it, but it cannot stop everyone. Only by letting them slowly know that the Holy Beast will not bite people easily, can they live a truly peaceful and normal life in the future.

"Sister, does the holy beast really not bite people?"

Zhao Feng was holding an embroidery ribbon in her hand and asked curiously while embroidering.

Su Zhi brought a small basket from home, which contained needles, thread, some cloth, and a pair of unfinished soles. They were Shen Zian's size, and she wanted to make a new pair of cotton shoes for him. She was sewing the soles vigorously, and when she heard Zhao Feng's question, she raised her head with a smile.

"It won't bite. Sister-in-law, look at me, I'm standing here peacefully. The holy beast must be very spiritual, otherwise it wouldn't have given me a ginseng. We've been so happy together these days. He even went hunting in the mountains with Zi'an."

Sister Li said, "This is true. I heard someone say that they saw Zi'an with a big white wolf and they were scared. But the white wolf looked at them and didn't bite them. Zi'an even introduced the white wolf to them! They said that the white wolf looked very majestic and beautiful, and its fur was as white as snow. Is this true?"

Su Zhi smiled and said, "It's true. I named it Dabai. Its fur is really white. If you look closely, you won't see any stray hairs. It's like a piece of white satin. It feels soft and smooth to the touch. Unfortunately, it doesn't like being touched. When I touch it, it looks at me. You don't know that Dabai can't talk. But you only need to look at its eyes to know what it's thinking. When I touch it, it looks at me. It seems to say, "Take your hands away."

"Really? So effective?"

Aunt Jinhua was also happy when she heard this. She was surprised to hear that this holy beast had a name, Dabai. The name sounded familiar. The fear she had felt faded a lot. When she heard Su Zhi say that Dabai could be touched and had such a rich look in his eyes, she immediately felt even less afraid. How could this be a wolf? Isn't this the same as the familiar big dog at home?

"If this is what the holy beast looks like, it looks like a wolf and has the same spirituality as a dog."

"Sister, didn't you say that the Holy Beast's wife is a dog? What does that dog look like? Is it fierce? Otherwise, how can it be worthy of the Holy Beast? Dogs are afraid of wolves."

Sister Shugen also asked curiously. She had a yellow dog at home and she knew that dogs were afraid of wolves.

Su Zhi told the women about the black dog, now called Dahei, and how docile it was, and about the two wolf cubs. She laughed more happily than usual when she was happy. The others who listened also laughed and were no longer so afraid of the holy beast family. It was not that scary that the holy beast could give birth to cubs with a dog.

"Auntie, can you bring Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai out next time? I'll give them something delicious."

Shuanzi popped his head out from the door. He, Huzi and Xiaosuo were playing in the garden, but the three of them heard Su Zhi talking about the holy beasts and ran back to listen. When they heard about the little wolf, they couldn't help it. They all wanted to play with Xiaobai and Xiaohei, who were like Maotuaner, like Su Zhi. They thought that other people's families only had puppies and cats, but if they had a little wolf, how majestic it would be!

Hu Zi also ran in, pulled Su Zhi's sleeve and shook it, saying, "Auntie, Auntie, bring the wolf cubs out to play with us. I promise not to bully them, and I will give them delicious food."

Xiaosuo was quieter, but she also stood aside and looked at Su Zhi with shining eyes.

Aunt Jinhua smiled and said, "You want to play with the little holy beast, aren't you afraid that the big holy beast will come and take you away?"

Shuanzi pouted and said, "Auntie Si said that as long as you are not a bad kid, the Holy Beast will not eat you. I gave Xiaohei and Xiaobai delicious food, and the Holy Beast would not bite me. I gave Dahuang food, and he licked me!"

When Su Zhi heard this, she thought that this was really like a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. The adults were still a little afraid, but the little kid was not afraid at all. But this was a good thing, and this was exactly the effect she wanted.

"Okay, next time I'll bring Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai out to play with you. Xiao Hei is very naughty, but also very stupid. You can't bully him. If you bully him, Xiao Bai will avenge him."

The three children shouted happily and ran out happily, telling their friends that they could play with the little wolf in the future. Soon, the adults also knew that Su Zhi had brought the little wolf to the village, and they were also very curious. Wolves are very protective of their cubs. If the holy beast agreed to release the cub into the village, it really meant that it had no ill will towards the people of this village.

Su Zhi worked at Sister Shugen's house until the evening and finished making both shoes. She wanted to leave, but was stopped by Sister Shugen and others. They said it was a rare opportunity to chat here and she shouldn't be in such a hurry to go home, as she would miss cooking.

Only when they felt that the room was getting dark did the women disperse.

As soon as Su Zhi walked to the edge of the bridge, she saw Shen Zian.

"Why are you here? I came back late, so I'm going back to cook."

Su Zhi looked at the sun which was about to disappear and felt that she had been out for too long. It turned out that women would make mistakes as soon as they started chatting.

"I've already prepared dinner."

Shen Zian took the basket from Su Zhi's hand. He didn't think there was anything unsightly about a man carrying a basket. This was very similar to modern men, and it made Su Zhi very satisfied. It was not that she couldn't lift a basket, she just liked the feeling of being cared for.

"What did you do? Just wait for me to get back and do it. It's not too late now."

Su Zhi walked beside Shen Zian, gently holding her arm around his. In ancient times, men and women rarely showed affection outside, even if they were married. But Su Zhi liked the feeling of a couple holding hands and going home together. Anyway, there weren't many people in the east of the village, so she could just let go when she saw someone.

Shen Zian held Su Zhi's hands with both of his own. Feeling a little cold, he stuffed her hands into his sleeves and said, "Why don't you wear gloves? Look at how cold your hands are. They will itch if they get frozen."

"I forgot to bring them. I don't have to work, so they won't get damaged by freezing. As for you, I made you another pair of gloves. Why are you still wearing this old pair? They're too thin."

"My eldest sister-in-law kept that pair and said she would make a few more pairs based on the pattern. I will bring them back tomorrow. Wife, I think in a few days, many people will wear these gloves."

Su Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, this thing is easy to make, but not easy to sell. Otherwise, you can let your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law make and sell it. But you can tell them to go to the embroidery shop and give this method to the people there. Maybe this method can make a little money. Even if it's not much, it's our intention."

Su Zhi also thought about making money by selling gloves, but then she thought that the profit was not much after all, and she had to seize the opportunity first, otherwise others would copy her and she would not make any money. She now had a more profitable business, so she should not waste her time on this, and doing a favor was the most cost-effective.

Shen Zian thought about it and said, "This is a good idea. If they make it and sell it, the money might also be confiscated by the public. Let them sell the recipe quietly, and the money can be kept as a private property."

Su Zhi pursed her lips and smiled, her husband was really not stupid.

The couple returned home happily. Xiao Hei came to greet them first when they entered the door. One look at its round little belly showed that it had just eaten a lot.

Su Zhi handed the basket to Shen Zian, then picked up the spinning little black dog and played with it for a while. She squatted down and touched little white dog, and talked to the white wolf and the black dog. She really treated them as family members and always spoke to them as if they were human beings. As for whether they understood or not, she didn't care. She just assumed that they understood.

After playing enough with Xiao Hei, Su Zhi put it down and went back to the house.

As soon as the curtain was opened, Su Zhi was stunned.

The room was all red. Along the edge of the kang, there was a red curtain hanging from the ceiling. In the middle of the curtain was a row of double happiness characters, which were also red, but darker than the red of the curtain. The edges of the double happiness characters were all yellow, green and yellow stripes. It looked festive and elegant. The curtain was pulled from both sides to the middle. Now, when it was pulled up, the situation inside the kang could not be seen at all. When entering the room, one could only see this festive curtain, which made the whole room more majestic and luxurious.

Looking forward, I saw that there was red paper pasted on the cabinet, with the word "double happiness" written on it.

There were four dishes and a soup on the table, as well as a jar of wine with the word "happiness" pasted on it. Shen Zian was lighting up two red candles, which were placed on two shining copper candlesticks, also exuding a festive atmosphere.

The candles were lit, shining on the snow-white window paper, which was also covered with red paper.

Su Zhi stood there, as if frozen, looking at everything in front of her. She knew what was going on, but she was a little dizzy. She thought this was the decoration of the bridal chamber. Shen Zian was decorating a bridal chamber. The word "bridal chamber" kept turning around in her mind, making her face redder and redder. She didn't know if it was the red color in the room or if it just came out of her.

Shen Zian walked up to Su Zhi, held her hand, and said, "Wife, I said I would give you a good wedding night. What do you think of this?"

Su Zhi was suddenly moved. She was married in her previous life, but it seemed that she had always been working hard for the marriage. Now, someone was finally working hard for her happiness. Although there was no extravagance, her heart melted at the sight of the red flowers.

Su Zhi leaned forward, expressing with her actions how satisfied she was. She thought, let it be like this for this life, and spend the rest of her life with this man who was willing to carefully prepare a wedding night for her. (
