Upon hearing his wife's words, Su Jingxuan was taken aback for a moment, but he was quick-witted and soon understood why she said that.
However, her caring words instantly warmed his heart.
"Okay, from now on, I'll have a wife who will love and cherish me!" Su Jingxuan replied with a smile.
Upon hearing the word "love," Luo Yunhe blushed deeply, and her heart inexplicably quickened.
However, her words did indeed make her start to reflect on what kind of feelings she truly had for Su Jingxuan.
Su Jingxuan finished his bowl of rice completely, not wasting a single grain. Luo Yunhe sat quietly to the side, watching him eat with great enjoyment. For some reason, she found his eating manners particularly pleasing to the eye and uplifting.
Seeing that he had finished his meal, Luo Yunhe got up to pack up and leave.
"Husband, I still have to go to the fields to work. Remember to come home early tonight," Luo Yunhe whispered.
"Okay!" Su Jingxuan nodded gently, her eyes full of doting affection.
The two walked towards the gate together, and just as they entered the courtyard, they ran into the students of the academy. They all stared wide-eyed at Luo Yunhe with curiosity, as if they had seen some rare treasure.
This was the first time they had seen Master Su's wife, and everyone's face was filled with curiosity.
"Master Su's wife looks so young..."
"Of course! And she's good-looking too!"
"Seeing Master Su and his wife walking together, they are simply a match made in heaven!"
The students gathered together, discussing in hushed tones.
"What are you all doing? Instead of studying properly, you're all just hanging around here talking!" A clear, stern voice rang out from behind them.
"Oops……"
The students were startled when they heard the sound, and they scattered like birds and beasts without daring to move.
After watching them leave, the woman raised her head and looked towards the door. Sure enough, she saw another woman beside Su Jingxuan, and the two of them were chatting and laughing as they walked towards the door.
The woman was somewhat puzzled when she first saw someone with him.
She quickly grabbed a student and asked who the woman was.
"Tell me, who was that woman who was with Master Su just now?"
“Master Li, she seems to be Master Su’s wife. She’s tall, and quite pretty…” The student added after saying that, looking at the female teacher in front of him cautiously.
When Li Qian heard what the student said, she frowned deeply, feeling a little helpless. She let go of the student and turned to leave.
She headed in the direction of the main gate. When she arrived, Luo Yunhe had already left with her basket, leaving only Su Jingxuan standing at the gate watching her retreating figure.
"Jingxuan, what are you doing here?" Li Qian had lost her previous arrogance and even looked shy. Standing beside him, she saw the figure not far away, but she still wanted to ask.
"Master Li, what brings you here?" Su Jingxuan asked politely.
"I saw you standing here and didn't know what you were doing, so I came over. What, is that someone important to you?"
"Yes, my wife!" Su Jingxuan said, then turned and left.
Upon hearing this, Li Qian's face turned pale, and her mood became extremely bad.
She has a very lively personality, not the gentle and demure type of girl.
In addition, her family was wealthy and she was educated, so she happened to see Su Jingxuan on one occasion.
Later, after some investigation, it was discovered that Su Jingxuan was actually teaching at this academy, so she followed him in and became a female teacher.
Although he lost one hand, he had a good personality, was honest, and was exceptionally good at taking care of people. In short, he had many admirable qualities that overshadowed his disability.
But in Li Qian's eyes, Su Jingxuan was the best. She also had a very clear understanding of Su Jingxuan's family background.
Knowing her current condition, probably no woman would want to marry a cripple, so she felt at ease gradually getting closer to him in the academy, hoping to make him fall in love with her and eventually bring them together.
But he never expected that all his efforts to protect it would be in vain.
He actually has a wife...
When exactly did that woman appear? How come he didn't know?
Li Qian was furious. How could someone else beat her to the punch after all the time she had waited for him? It must have happened because she hadn't been there for a while.
No, she had to find out who that woman was.
Luo Yunhe returned to the field and continued to tend to the weeds.
After working for several days, she had already honed her speed to an extremely fast level.
She was incredibly excited as he cleared the four acres of land.
Three more days passed.
Luo Yunhe finally cleared all the weeds from the four acres of land, and now the wasteland has been completely transformed.
He also threw all the pulled grass onto the ground.
After clearing away the weeds, all that remained on the four acres of land were grapevines, some large and some small, growing very unevenly.
Fortunately, the saplings are still alive.
To Luo Yunhe's surprise, there was an S-shaped water hook on the edge of the 4 mu of land.
On the other side was a small earthen slope.
Having a ditch makes watering the ground easier.
Luo Yunhe looked at the entire plot of land. She was definitely going to build a grape trellis, which would require a lot of wood.
So, after measuring the four acres of land, she marked them on the ground.
When the villagers passed by, they were surprised to see how clean the wasteland had become. Then they saw the little girl doing something in the field.
Everyone in the village knew perfectly well that nothing could grow on this wasteland. The fact that it had been cleared out was somewhat enviable, but the thought of not being able to grow anything also filled them with a sense of schadenfreude.
So, day and night, people would stop in their tracks when they passed by to see what Luo Yunhe was up to.
"What are you looking at?" Su Jingxing arrived just in time to see the villagers.
"Of course we should take a look. Nothing can grow on these four acres of wasteland. What is he busy doing there? In the end, it will all be for nothing. It's a complete waste of time!"
Su Jingxing has been back for a few days now. In these few days, apart from the gossipy old women in the village talking about their sister-in-law with envy and jealousy, there has been no other news.
At home, this sister-in-law didn't say much, as if everything her mother and sister said was just to slander her.
He was curious today and wanted to see what his sister-in-law was doing in the field, so he came over.
