"Brother, why are your ears red again? Are you really not sick?"
Zhang Xiuyuan rarely glared at his beloved younger brother.
Wen Ge'er looked innocent and touched his head. Did he say something wrong?
Zhao Chuchu, who was next to Zhang Xiuyuan, took in the whole scene and smiled without saying a word.
Zhao Chuchu had some understanding of the character of Yuan Ge'er, the husband she fell in love with at first sight.
He has a cool, gentle yet stubborn personality. He is also thin-skinned and a bit arrogant.
His eyebrows and eyes were rather cold, and he rarely showed his emotions. Zhao Chuchu thought he was aloof, but she didn't expect that he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Moreover, this "cold face" would soon be broken as soon as she said sweet words to him.
Zhao Chuchu once again felt that her husband was so adorable that she wanted to lift him up high.
During the meal, perhaps because they were unfamiliar with the food, the Zhang family felt a little restrained, especially Mr. Zhang. He knew that he was just a useless person who was a burden to others, and looking at the meat that he could not eat even during the New Year, he felt a little ashamed for a moment.
Fortunately, Zhao Chuchu was good at observing people's expressions and had good communication skills. She chatted with Mr. Zhang for a few words, comforted him, and picked up some food for him.
Soon, Mr. Zhang's knot in his heart was untied.
"Sister Chu, I'm leaving my son Yuan Ge'er to you. His mother and I feel relieved." Mr. Zhang sighed, raised his sleeve to wipe the corners of his eyes, and a few tears fell.
"Father-in-law, Brother Yuan is a good person. I will definitely treat him well. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's eat quickly, otherwise the food will get cold. Brother Yuan spent a lot of time making this. It's delicious..."
After this meal, Zhao Chuchu became more familiar with the Zhang family. At least when Mr. Zhang saw her, he looked at her with loving eyes, and Wen Ge'er and Lin Jie'er also called her brother and sister-in-law in a well-behaved and sensible manner.

In the evening, Zhao Chuchu sat bored in the main room, her eyes occasionally falling on the main house of her house.
The door of the main house was closed, and Zhao Chuchu didn't dare to go in because Zhang Xiuyuan was taking a bath inside.
Zhao Chuchu loves cleanliness herself. When she came here for the first time, she couldn't stand the dirty old house and cleaned it immediately. Zhang Xiuyuan also loves cleanliness. In order to solve the bathing problem, Zhao Chuchu spent money to build a large bathtub that can be placed in the house for bathing.
Zhao Chuchu was eager to see the handsome man coming out of the bath, but it was just a thought. If she really went to peek, Yuan Ge'er would think she was a pervert. Besides, she had made a solemn promise to him today, so how could she go back on her word at night?
Zhao Chuchu stood up and paced back and forth in the main room alone. She looked at the bright moon outside the window again. When she thought about sleeping in the same bed with Yuan Ge'er soon, she couldn't remain calm.
In modern times, she has never been in love, never had a boyfriend, and naturally she would never sleep in the same bed with a man. Now when she thinks of herself sleeping in the same bed with Zhang Xiuyuan, she can't help but smile, a little foolishly.
"What are you laughing at? I've already finished my shower, you should go take a shower." Qingyue's voice interrupted his thoughts. Seeing the elegant figure under the moonlight, Zhao Chuchu's expression froze. Brother Yuan probably didn't see me grinning just now. If he did, it would be really embarrassing.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Zhao Chuchu immediately put away her silly smile.
There was a candle in the room. The young man was lying on the bed, covered with a quilt. The warm orange candlelight fell down, and in the dim light, the young man's cold brows softened a little.
After Zhao Chuchu finished her bath, she poured the water, moved the wooden barrel out, and returned to the room to meet the young man's gaze.
