Chapter 25 Bridal Chamber



Xu Lei, who was waiting outside, heard the sound of splashing water and his ears turned red.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.

If he guessed correctly...wife...that's what he meant, right?

They are all grown men serving in the army.

When we get together, the most talked about topic is naturally about women.

He is a typical novice who only has theory but zero practical experience.

The man stood straight outside, his mind going through many twists and turns.

Jiang Yuzhu couldn't stay in the room for too long.

After quickly washing from head to toe and drying himself, he knocked on the door and quickly got into his bed.

Xu Lei knew that Jiang Yuzhu had finished washing.

He also heard the noises in the house, and he could imagine what was happening in the house at the moment.

Knowing she's ready.

Then he pushed open the door, went into the room and took out the basin and bucket.

You have to wash yourself clean too.

Xu Lei quickly took some water and went to the backyard to rinse himself.

When Xu Lei entered the room with moisture, he found that two quilts that were far apart were now touching each other.

His heart burned even more.

He turned over and crawled into Jiang Yuzhu's bed.

In the darkness, the two people's breathing was particularly rapid.

The big, rough hand finally stroked Jiang Yuzhu's face carefully.

Breath is robbed...

The pair of soft little hands rested on Xu Lei's neck, gently stroking his back.

Like a signal.

Xu Lei rolled over and pressed the man under him.

Jiang Yuzhu felt like all her senses had been robbed.

I want to escape, but I can't.

His brows were furrowed, and crystal tears sparkled in his eyes.

The starlight shone into Xu Lei's heart.

Xu Lei completely lost control and swallowed the falling tears...

It was only when the sky was slightly bright that I fell into a drowsy sleep.

Xu Lei fell asleep contentedly with the beauty in his arms.

The void in my heart has been filled since then.

He finally had a home that was completely his own.

The rooster crowed in the early morning, and Xu Lei, who had just fallen asleep for a while, opened his eyes.

Get dressed and go for a run.

I also need to find someone to make a bath tub for my wife today.

Looking at Jiang Yuzhu who was sleeping soundly, Xu Lei couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead.

Jiang Yuzhu, who was disturbed, turned over impatiently.

Xu Lei quickly patted her a few times, and only got up and left when he saw that she had fallen asleep again.

When Old Lady Xu saw the third son coming out quietly, she shouted, "Third son, what did you do last night that you wasted so much firewood?"

"Shh... Mom, keep your voice down!"

"I'll go chop wood for you right now!"

"Don't go call Yuzhu." Xu Lei thought it would be a good opportunity to go up the mountain to chop some firewood and treat it as exercise.

The old lady looked at her son's adorable expression, then at the tightly closed door. What else did she not understand?

All men are the same!

He went to the kitchen angrily to continue working.

Xu Lei first went up the mountain to chop firewood, got two bundles, and carried them down the mountain to take home.

I happened to pass by the carpenter's house.

"Is Uncle Wang home?"

"Hey, here I come." The carpenter hurried out to see who was looking for him.

At that time, carpenter was a good profession. Every family would marry a wife and make furniture.

No matter whether you are rich or poor, you must have some furniture at home, such as tables, chairs, wardrobes, and large boxes for storing things. These are all indispensable.

Although most people try to save as much as possible, they still spend what they need.

"Lei Zi, why are you here? Come in and sit down." The carpenter saw that it was Xu Lei, the third son of the Xu family, and hurriedly welcomed him in.

"Uncle Wang, I won't go in. I came here to order some furniture from you."

"My room doesn't have a table or stools for eating, and I want a big wooden tub for bathing. I don't have the wood, so I'll do the labor and materials. Could you please calculate how much it would cost?"

Xu Lei knew that his parents would definitely leave the few pieces of wood at home for his fourth brother to get married and for his younger sister as a dowry, so they would not be given to him.

"Your family doesn't have..." Carpenter Wang knew that Old Xu's family had a few pieces of wood.

Carpenter Wang suddenly realized what was happening and stopped asking questions. Every family has its own problems.

"Okay, I'll calculate it for you."

"You came at the right time. A while ago, a female educated youth from the next village ordered a large wooden tub from me for bathing, but later she didn't want it anymore because it was too expensive. It has been kept in the downstairs room ever since."

"It's just right for you to take away. I have a small table and stool here. I saved them when I had nothing to do."

"Give me fifteen dollars for the wooden barrel, eight dollars for the kang table, and five dollars for each chair. How many chairs do you want?"

"Don't think it's expensive, uncle made all this with the old materials left over from before. If it were someone else, it wouldn't be this price."

Carpenter Wang was afraid that Xu Lei would think it was too expensive, so he explained it in detail.

"Uncle Wang, I know everything. How could I not know your craftsmanship?"

Carpenter Wang is a very famous carpenter in the surrounding villages. He uses solid materials and his workmanship is exquisite.

"One chair is enough." If you buy too many, your wife won't be able to use them, and who knows what will happen to them when the time comes.

Xu Lei’s purpose in buying these was very clear, it was to use them for his wife.

It’s not that he doesn’t miss his parents, but every time he buys something for them, he ends up giving it to someone else.

"Hahaha, come on, Uncle Wang will take you to my warehouse. I can't bear to let anyone else in."

Carpenter Wang led Xu Lei into his warehouse.

Here are all kinds of furniture he made in his spare time.

Xu Lei's eyes lit up, "Uncle Wang, this wash basin stand is nice, and this small stool too."

"How about it? Not bad, right? I saved all this up bit by bit." Carpenter Wang was very proud.

He was not bragging about his skills, there was no one else like him in the surrounding villages.

"Here, here's the bath tub you asked for, as well as the kang table and chairs."

"Uncle Wang, I want this washbasin rack too, and this small stool." Xu Lei thought that his wife could sit on the small stool to take a break while cooking in the kitchen.

You can sit here at ordinary times.

Not to mention the washbasin rack. With it, my wife doesn't have to put the washbasin on a big box, which is very inconvenient.

"Good." Carpenter Wang was of course happy. Today was a good start.

I sold so many pieces of furniture at once and made a lot of money.

"The wooden barrel is fifteen dollars, the kang table is eight dollars, the chair is five dollars, the washbasin rack is six dollars, and the small stool is two dollars, a total of thirty-six dollars." Carpenter Wang grinned. What he sold in this day was more than what he sold in several months.

It has to be a promising soldier.

Xu Lei gave the money readily.

"Okay, you go back first. You're still carrying firewood. I'll ask the eldest and second brother to bring it to you later."

Carpenter Wang asked his two sons to take the medicine to Xu Lei's home.

Xu Lei thought that he had finally gotten his wife's bath tub ready, and he walked home carrying two bundles of firewood.

I happened to meet Zhang Min who came out from the educated youth camp to pour water.

The moment Zhang Min saw Xu Lei, she felt uneasy.

"Third brother!"
