Extra South Chapter
The extra story is from the male protagonist's perspective, so you can ignore it if you don't like it.
——
Nan Chu had a miserable life since childhood. Ever since he was old enough to understand, what awaited him was endless work and beatings and scoldings from his drunken mother.
Of course, this also depends on the person.
For example, his half-sister is different. She obviously has a poor body but a “rich” fate.
But the good news is that he has a father.
Whenever the long vines fell, my father's frail body would always rush over to protect me.
Then came the sound of flesh cracking, and the mother's curses:
"Damn, what a pair of money-losing goods."
"If I hadn't seen that you still have some color, I would have sold you to a brothel in exchange for alcohol. Go ahead and protect you. In two years, when I've had enough fun, I'll see how I'll deal with you."
However, before that day came, Dad was caught in bed by his stepfather and his men.
After this incident, no one cared about my father's complaint. Instead, they immediately brought people to my home to "persuade" my mother:
"Nan Qiu, don't let him off just for a little money. Put him in the pig cage quickly. This way, our village can still have a reputation for being impartial."
Nan's mother nodded with a look of pain on her face:
"Okay, I'll lock him up in the woodshed and you can take him away. The Nan family has been disgraced by this bitch, and I don't want to be in the spotlight again."
On this day, Nan Chu, who was less than ten years old, lost his father. Fortunately, he inherited his biological father's appearance.
Nan's mother thought that she could get a good price for raising the child for two years. Besides, she could feed him a few meals and get him to work as a servant, which she thought was not a bad idea.
Five years passed in the blink of an eye.
I don’t know what kind of good luck this girl from the Gu family in the village has, she is well-educated and well-dressed.
Nan's mother thought that there were benefits to marrying into her family, so she did everything she could to get Gu Ranran engaged to her money-loser son.
But the good times did not last long. The daughter of the Gu family became a famous figure in the academy. The mother and husband of the Gu family felt that the Nan family was marrying above their station and did not want to give them any betrothal money anymore.
Nan's mother was furious when she heard this. Her son was worth several taels of silver if he was sold to a brothel. How could I give him to you for free?
It's just a dream.
She angrily broke off the engagement and was about to send Nan Chu to a brothel, but who would have thought that something bleak could befall her.
There was a fool who fell in love with the money-losing commodity's appearance and wanted to buy her to be his legal husband for ten taels of silver. Nan's mother agreed without thinking.
…………
The first time Nan Chu saw his wife was at the wedding ceremony. She was wearing a bright red wedding gown, and he knew something was wrong at first sight.
This woman was beautiful, but she had a fierce look on her face, just like his mother, not an easy person to get along with.
Fortunately, the woman rushed out on the wedding night, giving him one more night to buffer.
The next day, Nan Chu saw Su Yuanshi again.
The wife seemed to have changed. She became concerned about his situation and was even kind enough to give him freedom.
But he didn't want to. Although the world is big, where can a little boy like him go?
It would be better to just make the best of it. Anyway, it seems that his new wife cares about him a lot, so she must be a good person.
As time went by, the two spent more and more time together.
The meaty steamed buns were bought by my wife.
Soft, sweet and precious pastries: bought by my wife.
Warm new clothes: bought by my wife.
And as the wife became more motivated, they moved to town and their relationship gradually became ambiguous.
When sleeping at night, he would always sneak into the woman's arms while his wife was "asleep".
It felt warm and sweet, like his father's slightly bent embrace when he was protecting him, which made him feel extremely safe, and it was also as sweet as the candied fruit he ate during the day.
When he arrived in the town, Su's father returned to his old business and opened a pastry shop. In addition, his father taught him how to read.
On holidays, Su Yuan would also teach him step by step, with the man standing behind him and half-hugging him in his arms.
The warm breath sprayed on Nan Chu's ears, causing him to tremble uncontrollably, and his mind was always filled with random thoughts.
At this time, Su Yuan would scold him:
"Little idiot, if you keep losing your focus, I'll spank you!"
Nan Chu felt a little scared, but more happy.
His wife cares about him and is concerned about his handwriting!
To say that it has always been uncertain.
That Lantern Festival day.
In the crowded crowd, Su Yuan stretched out his sleeves to lock him tightly in a small space, then bent down and kissed his pink lips.
Although Nan Chu was stunned and shy, she was actually very happy in her heart.
Is this considered a commitment?
From that day on, Su Yuan became closer to him and even taught him the etiquette of wife and husband on his sixteenth birthday, transforming him from a naive little boy into a man.
——A man who is mature enough to be a father.
Sure enough, at the next destination, Tongcheng, he found out he was pregnant and had a child. His wife took pity on him because of his heavy body, so she asked her father to take good care of him and even got Gu Yang to keep him company for his safety.
A few months later, after the first three months, he rushed to Jiangzhou.
At that time, his wife, whom he respected and loved, was about to take part in the provincial examination to become a juren.
Juren, the first important person he met in his life, Nan Chu felt proud but also a little inferior.
Fortunately, my wife loves me very much.
After he passed the imperial examination, Su Yuan never left him and even rented a carriage for him to take care of him personally.
Nanchu is pregnant with an eight-month-old belly:
My legs are cramping, so my wife is giving me a massage.
The car was stuffy, so the wife took him outside to get some fresh air.
When in a bad mood, the wife comforts him gently.
Nan Chuxiang:
Su Yuan must be the best wife in the world. Maybe the hardships she endured in the first half of her life were because he got too much in the future.
Even God can’t stand it anymore and wants to teach him a lesson?
Nan Chu sighed, looked down at his newborn daughter lying in his arms, a hint of smile in his eyes.
His child with his wife.
——Su Chuyao (Lolo), that’s great.
Since giving birth to little Luoluo, Nan Chu's inferiority complex has turned into confidence and cheerfulness with Su Yuan's favor and her rising value.
When Luo Luo grew up a little, he gradually took over Xiangsufang and became the real master of Su Mansion and later the regent.
Speaking of this, we have to mention Su Chuyao.
After he and his wife left Beijing for a trip, Chu Yao took over Xiangsufang and was conferred a title by Xier.
She was rich and powerful, and completely freed herself from the difficulties she had encountered in her childhood, becoming one of the most powerful female rulers in the capital.
