Chapter 418: Class Mobilization

Xu Wan knew something was wrong.

He won't kiss deeper.

But since she had already taken the initiative to kiss him, it was not appropriate for her to teach him how to kiss others, so she just smiled and kissed him.

The kiss lasted for about half an hour. They had stopped in the middle, but when they looked at each other, they couldn't help but kiss each other again, smelling each other's scent and touching each other's soft lips.

When we go to bed at night, each of us still has our own quilt.

But Zong Zhao would be like a little child, pecking her from time to time. His courage grew with Xu Wan's two initiatives, and he no longer felt awkward or retreated.

But Xu Wan was sleepy. After being kissed a few times, she covered Zong Zhao's mouth and shouted, "There are so many rewards. Take a break, take a break."

Zong Zhao kissed the palm of her hand and held her in his arms again through the quilt. He seemed to be in a good mood, and one hand was gently stroking her cheeks and ears, softly and tenderly.

Xu Wan sensed his mood and asked curiously, "Are you so happy?"

"Happy." Zong Zhao's tone was filled with joy.

The corners of Xu Wan's mouth curled up slightly.

Idiot, you refused to consummate the marriage before.

Zong Zhao hugged her for a while but it seemed not enough, so he leaned against her again, his face close to hers, and whispered in her ear, "I like you."

Xu Wan's heart was beating very fast.

Although this is not the first time I heard him say this, but hearing it again still makes my chest full, and every cell in my body feels happy and excited.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Zong Zhao thought she was sleepy and about to fall asleep, so he loosened her blanket, stepped back, and said in a lower voice, "I like you."

Xu Wan's brain was about to crash.

How should I reply to this? How should I reply to this? If I say I know, will it be too cold? If I say I like you too, I always feel a little embarrassed. So, wait a little longer...wait for what? Wait until when?

Xu Wan's mind was full of confusion, and then... she fell asleep.

early morning.

Cuizhi knocked on the door and said, "Madam, it's morning. You asked me to wake you up at this time yesterday."

Xu Wan rubbed her eyes, but before she could open them, she felt herself being hugged again, with his warm body pressed against her neck. He asked lazily and clingingly, "What are you doing getting up so early?"

Xu Wan was already mostly awake. She patted Zong Zhao on the shoulder and said, "The water spinach planted by Mr. Su is ripe. I want to harvest it before the children go to class. You should sleep a little longer. You don't have to get up so early."

Zong Zhao buried his head in her neck and chuckled, then said in a hoarse voice, "The wife went to the fields to pick vegetables, while the husband slept in bed?"

Xu Wan couldn't help laughing out loud. She cleared her throat and said, "That's fine. I'll allow you to be my little sweetheart for a day."

"Little darling?"

Xu Wan suppressed her laughter and said seriously, "Well... the woman is the breadwinner and the man is the homemaker. I do all the hard work and you just need to wait for me to come back comfortably at home. Of course, if you were more considerate, you could also rub my legs and shoulders, then you would definitely be a role model among the little beauties... Ah, what are you doing?"

Zong Zhao said, "Let me massage your legs and shoulders."

"No, no, no need for that. I was just joking, just joking, haha... why are you tickling me? Haha... you've crossed the line, you've crossed the line." Xu Wan was so annoyed by him that she ran away from the bed and no longer dared to call him a little coquettish man.

Zong Zhao teased her for a while, then pulled her out of bed to wash up: "Let's go together after dinner. The two of you can finish quickly."

"Okay." Xu Wan changed into neat clothes today, ate a few bites of food and went over.

As soon as I reached the gate of the courtyard of the study, I heard a noisy voice: "Keep your voice down, don't ruin the vegetables."

"Xiao Bai, go over there and order. Let's not make this trip together."

"Got it. Hurry up and finish it. We have to go to class at 7 pm."

"good!"

Xu Wan and Zong Zhao exchanged a glance, then walked in quickly to see five young boys in Cuju uniforms, who had all gotten up early to harvest water spinach. It was only the morning of the morning, and they had all arrived early.

"Mom! Why are you here?" The little devil had just dug out a water spinach and when he looked up he saw Xu Wan.

Xu Wan smacked her lips: "You actually knew that water spinach is ripe today."

While she was talking, Zong Zhao had already handed her a basket, indicating that she should just wait beside him to collect the water spinach he had peeled.

Xu Wan was busy asking questions and did not bother to refute Zong Zhao. She just followed him.

Zong Jincheng yawned and said, "I have been working in the fields with the old man for more than a month, but I can't even tell whether the vegetables are ripe or not. Isn't it a waste of my learning?"

Xu Wan said with a smile: "Yes, it's not difficult. For geniuses like you, it's a piece of cake."

The five young boys burst into laughter after hearing this, without stopping the work in their hands.

Wei Xinglu waved his hoe and asked, "Aunt, we plan to use the one-month family leave after the palace examination to visit Mr. Su in Lucheng. His home is far from the capital, but apart from the round trip, we can still spend a few days there."

Xu Wan took the water spinach handed over by Zong Zhao and put it into the basket. She then replied, "If Mr. Su had known that you guys could make it to the palace examination, he might have been inspired to write a poem and praise you a few times."

Shen Yibai chuckled and added, "Forget it. He is not good at complimenting people, but only at scolding people. It would be good if he didn't hold our heads down and asked us to write a few poems."

Everyone else started laughing: "Hahaha...that makes sense."

A group of people were chatting and laughing, and their hands were working faster and faster.

They were all farmers from Beijing who had been trained by Su Xi himself. They were all nimble and experienced, and they finished harvesting in no time.

Zong Jincheng shouted, "We'll have water spinach for lunch. I planted it myself. If anyone dares to waste a single blade, I'll fight him!"

"Yes, fight him!"

That’s what I said, but when I actually prepared a table full of water spinach at noon…

“Stir-fried water spinach, water spinach salad, water spinach soup.”

The young boys were all confused.

Zong Jincheng, who hated green vegetables, felt his scalp tingling when he saw the table full of green vegetables: "Why are there so many? I thought there was only one dish for each meal."

In this way, if each person uses one chopstick, can't we finish the meal without anyone noticing?

Xu Wan reminded her gently, "There are so many water spinach on the ground. You can't finish them if you don't eat them this way. You don't want to share them with the servants... Then eat them slowly. I estimate that you can eat them for ten days or half a month."

Zong Jincheng's face turned green after hearing this.

Xu Wan took a piece of water spinach with her chopsticks and tasted it: "Not bad, it's fresh and delicious when you grow it yourself."

The little devil became excited when he heard this: "Does mom like it? We can give them all to mom." Others also agreed.
