Zhao Chuchu could vaguely guess why Yuan Ge'er wanted such a huge betrothal gift. It was for himself, but more importantly, for his family. Now, he could give her the money, which showed that he really cared about her and treated her as a family member.
However, the money was given to her and it was given to her. Even if she was poorer, Zhao Chuchu would not ask for it back.
Zhao Chuchu poured out the water, spread out the wrung-out clothes and hung them on the bamboo pole, then put her arm around Zhang Xiuyuan's waist and walked into the house.
As soon as the door was closed, Zhao Chuchu immediately hugged the man and buried her face in the boy's neck, feeling the warmth and smoothness.
Hugging the boy, Zhao Chuchu felt as if she was hugging the whole world. Her heart was extremely peaceful, as if she had found a home in this strange time and space.
The person in her arms stiffened slightly, but did not push her away.
"Brother Yuan, I'm very happy that you can give me the silver. That means you already have a place for me in your heart and regard me as a family member. But I can't accept it. Brother Yuan, you have to believe me. The current poverty is only temporary. I am the head of the family. I believe I have the ability to make our family live a rich and worry-free life. Brother Yuan, please believe me too, okay?"
The person on his body was like a large pendant hanging on him, and was also playing happily in his arms like a large dog.
Zhang Xiuyuan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and ripples appeared in his heart.
His hands were on Zhao Chuchu's body. According to his usual personality, he should have pushed the person in his arms away, but his hands were placed loosely without any force, acquiescing to the hug of the person in front of him.
"I didn't disbelieve you." Zhang Xiuyuan lowered his eyes. The orange light of the oil lamp fell on him, leaving a shadow under his eyelids. He explained softly, "I gave you money because I believe in you."
"I believe you won't embezzle the money, and I believe you will fight for this family." He hesitated again and muttered a warning, "But you can't spend money recklessly."
His wife likes to spend money lavishly, and he keeps it in mind.
Zhao Chuchu felt warm in her heart and then laughed out loud. How could her brother Yuan be so cute?
She could no longer control herself, she hooked her arms around the boy's neck, tilted her head back and kissed his lips, which were as soft as jelly and addictive.
After the kiss, Zhang Xiuyuan breathed lightly in Zhao Chuchu's arms.

The next morning, Zhang Xiuyuan prepared breakfast early. Zhao Chuchu ate breakfast, said goodbye to him, and set off for the county town.
After wandering around the county town for a while, Zhao Chuchu decided to go to the dock to carry heavy bags.
Her main business is her own business, and she needs a short-term job to make a living until the vegetables are ripe.
Most of the work is long-term, with very few short-term jobs. Taking on big projects is precisely short-term work, and some are even paid on a daily basis.
Secondly, the original owner was born with supernatural powers, which is a golden finger that can carry heavy loads.
There are both men and women carrying heavy bags at the dock.
In the Great Sheng Dynasty where she lived, women were superior to men, but apart from the fact that women had a higher status and were stronger, there was no other difference. Men were not prohibited from showing their faces in public, especially in poor areas. In order to support their families, men usually went out to work.
However, most of the people on the dock were women, and they were talking and laughing.
The man works silently and will take the initiative to distance himself from the woman for the sake of his own reputation.
It’s not difficult to carry a big bag, just register and you can start.
Zhao Chuchu's joining immediately attracted everyone's attention.
