Chapter 173 Getting Married
"Oh, that's good."
He Zheng pretended to be deep and said to Erhe, "Then you two can talk. I'll go take care of your business."
Erhe doesn't have much to do, just deliver the goods to the warehouse. Before that, he has to count and keep accounts, and remember who has done how many pieces, so that he can calculate the wages later.
Understanding what he meant, Erhe nodded.
He Zheng was honest and turned around and left without even looking at Du Ruoyun.
With such a beautiful wife, there is no need to look at others.
He was not worried about his wife being bullied. He had long realized that his wife was not the type to be bullied easily. This was a good character.
As for Du Ruoyun, he is rather timid and introverted, and cannot bully Erhe.
"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Erhe didn't beat around the bush. To be honest, she and Du Ruoyun didn't know each other at all before. If it weren't for the mistaken baby incident, they might never have met in this life. Even later, the two of them never spoke to each other alone. Du Ruoyun was always with her mother, and her mother protected her very well.
From some perspectives, Du Ruoyun is very happy.
So, she really couldn't guess why Du Ruoyun was looking for her.
"Shall we take a walk?"
"OK."
The sun is not too strong now, so I might as well take a walk. It's better than standing in the yard.
The two walked outside, one in front of the other, and walked along the small river in front of the village.
"I might get married too." Du Ruoyun said in a low voice after walking a long way away.
Erhe was actually not too surprised, or rather, she was not surprised that Du Ruoyun got married. They were the same age. If she got married, Du Ruoyun should also get married at her age. She even had a rough guess as to who Du Ruoyun would marry. But the question was, why did she need to be informed of this?
"So, what does this have to do with me? Or do you want to invite me to your wedding?"
"No, I am..." Du Ruoyun suddenly stopped. She looked at the familiar environment around her. In fact, people are still very strange. She has lived here for eighteen years and should be very familiar with it. But since she lived in the county town, she felt uncomfortable when she returned to the countryside. She was not used to the scenery here, nor was she used to the dirt and mess here.
"I heard that you and Lu Zhou grew up together, and he has always been very protective of you..."
Erhe understood and found it interesting.
"Actually, if you have something to say, you can just say it clearly. Are you worried about me? Do you think I'll snatch Lu Zhou from you? Or are you worried about Lu Zhou and suspect we'll do something to let you down? Then I can tell you clearly that such a thing will never happen. There's nothing between Lu Zhou and me other than being classmates."
Erhe looked at Du Ruoyun frankly.
Du Ruoyun stared at her eyes. It is said that people will blink constantly when they lie, but Erhe did not.
So could she believe what she said?
Suddenly, Du Ruoyun felt embarrassed. She was just too petty.
"I,"
"Do you have anything else to say?" Erhe's tone also became lighter.
Du Ruoyun bit her lip, "Then, can I invite you to our wedding?"
Erhe looked into Du Ruoyun's eyes and did not answer immediately. Her gaze was very strong, as if she wanted to see into people's hearts. Under such a gaze, Du Ruoyun felt more and more embarrassed, and even felt that she could not stand.
Erhe thought that this was probably another test for her.
If I go, will Du Ruoyun start to think too much?
Some people are cautious and extremely sensitive.
It would be very tiring to get along with such a person.
so……
"I don't know any of you. There's no need to go."
After saying that, he saw that Du Ruoyun looked relieved despite trying hard to hide it.
Erhe smiled faintly.
"I won't keep you for dinner, so go back early."
Erhe had no opinion on Du Ruoyun. There were people of all kinds of personalities in society. Those who got along well with each other could be friends, and those who didn't get along well with each other didn't mean that they had bad personalities. They were just not the same type of people. There was no saying that one kind of personality was good and another was bad.
Du Ruoyun didn't say anything else. She hesitated for a while and then left.
Only after watching her leave the village did Erhe turn around and go home.
As to whether this incident had any impact on her, it really had not at all.
What does it have to do with her if two people who have nothing to do with her get married?
When I got home, He Zheng was busy in the back.
Village chief He never asks much about his daughter-in-law's affairs, but it would be bad for a father-in-law to ask too much.
Wang Xiu was still curious, "Erhe, what does the girl from the Du family want from you?"
The two of them didn't seem to have any contact with each other on a daily basis.
"She's getting married, come and tell me."
Wang Xiu subconsciously asked, "Are you invited to the wedding?"
It's no wonder she thinks this way. Since she came here specially, it can only be to treat us to a wedding, otherwise what else could it be?
"without."
Hearing Erhe say this, Wang Xiu was stunned for a moment, but did not ask any further questions.
I just muttered to myself that this was an outrageous thing to do.
But when I think of Du's mother's arrogant look, I can say whatever I want to her. If I can avoid having any contact with her, I'd better not. We are not on the same path.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have the same idea.
After all, when you live your life behind closed doors, it is your own life, and it doesn’t matter what happens to other families.
After dinner, He Zheng went out to deliver the goods. Knowing that this matter should not be made public, Village Chief He and Wang Xiu were used to seeing He Zheng going out to deliver the goods in the middle of the night. Wang Xiu was still cautious and told He Zheng to be careful on the road. However, as soon as He Zheng left, she closed the door.
Erhe: “…”
My dear mother, this is definitely my dear mother!
He Zheng didn't come back until after 1 a.m. Erhe was still a little worried and couldn't fall asleep. When she heard the noise outside, she immediately turned on the light in the room.
"Are you back?"
Wang Xiu's voice came from outside, and it was obvious that she was also worried about her son.
"I'm glad you're back. Go to sleep."
He Zheng couldn't wait to push the door open and saw Erhe sitting at the head of the bed with her clothes draped over her. His heart suddenly felt warm.
In the past, no matter how late I came back, the room was always empty, unlike now...
I have a pretty daughter-in-law at home.
It's really satisfying.
Thinking of something, He Zheng put his hands behind his back and walked towards the bed.
Erhe saw him staring at her with great excitement and thought he had prepared some surprise.
until……
"Wife, tell me how lucky I am! On my way back, I found a giant turtle, as big as our washbasin."
As he spoke, He Zheng lifted the turtle by its two feet and placed it in front of Erhe like a treasure. "Look, isn't it really big? I'll kill it tomorrow to nourish you."
It’s really big, ridiculously big.
Erhe was startled at first, then she thought of something and her face darkened instantly. "Mr. He, hurry up and throw the turtle out. No, I don't know much about this either. Go call our mother."
