Marrying into a poor family

"Huh? What are you afraid of?" Xiao Chenyu asked with a nasal voice before his mind was awake when he was about to fall asleep.

After he finished speaking, he became a little more awake. He thought about what Qin Xiang had just said and laughed at himself: "What are you afraid of? I've always been afraid, wasn't it me?"

"Ah, what are you afraid of?" The same words confused Qin Xiang.

Is she treating Xiao Chenyu badly? His journey has been very smooth, what else is there to be afraid of?

Xiao Chenyu was completely awake, a little embarrassed and speechless, so he hesitated: "It's nothing, I'm talking about you, why are you talking about me again?"

That seems to be the case, why did things go off topic unknowingly?

The couple looked at each other and smiled in unison.

After laughing, Xiao Chenyu hugged Qin Xiang tighter, and gently rubbed his cheek on Qin Xiang's head a few times. Qin Xiang's hair was very silky and had an excellent touch, even the best silk could not match it.

"You also told me that I couldn't help but be suspicious and wonder what it was? If I thought too much, I was afraid that I would go into a dead end. This would be bad for the relationship between us."

Xiao Chenyu spoke slowly, his voice softer than ever before.

"I have been a little naughty since I was a child, but my father and mother never interfered with me. In my eyes, my mother was very gentle, loving, and beautiful. At that time, I knew that my sister-in-law didn't like me, but I didn't care because I had a father. Mother’s love and care.”

"My eldest brother rarely appears in my memory. He always works outside. When he comes back, he sits in the yard with dad and talks. He talks about things outside. I don't understand, and I don't need to understand. "

"At that time, I took my nephews Xiao Hanyang and Liu Xi all over the village to recruit chickens and dogs, but no one in the village would scold me and would even give me some food."

"The elders smiled and said that I would have a great future and asked me to study hard and bring glory to the Xiao family in the future. I patted my chest and promised that I would be glorious in the future."

As long as they heard what he said, the elders would smile from ear to ear, take the uneaten wild fruits from their grandsons, and hand them all to Xiao Chenyu.

Xiao Chenyu felt that he was having a great time.

Later, he went to school. Just as he had promised to countless people, he studied hard and had a natural memory. How could he not like such a student?

"I had such a smooth life when I was a child. Maybe God couldn't bear it, so he took away everything I had and brought me back to my original shape. It turns out that without my father's blessing, I, Xiao Chenyu, am nothing! "

Qin Xi suddenly understood why Xiao Chenyu said he was afraid.

What he is afraid of is that his current family will break up. He is afraid that when he is happy again, it will suddenly stop and plunge him into a cold trough again. Countless people will openly and secretly laugh at his overestimation of his abilities.

He is even more afraid that his destiny will be to die alone.

It turns out that everyone is afraid, even if he seems strong enough.

Qin Xiang also hugged Xiao Chenyu's waist tightly, throwing away the last bit of hesitation and fear.

Just when he was thinking about how to mention his incredible rebirth, Xiao Chenyu actually spoke with a hint of grievance.

"Xiao Hanyang once said that you are very good at musical instruments, but I have never heard you play any musical instrument. Our family has never even had a piano or flute. Sometimes when I think about it, I still feel a little uncomfortable."

Qin Xiang suddenly realized after being stunned for a long time. He raised his head and looked at Xiao Chenyu's profile, frowned, and asked hesitantly: "Are you jealous of Xiao Hanyang?" Xiao Chenyu didn't speak, but the tips of his ears were a little red. .

Qin Xiang rolled her eyes, lay down again, and said, "That happened when I was a child. Xiao Hanyang is just like those harps, completely forgotten by me and I don't want to mention it at all."

"What were you like when you were a child?" Xiao Chenyu still couldn't let go of his jealousy towards Xiao Hanyang. After all, he occupied all of Qin Xiang's childhood.

"When I was a child, I was very boring. Apart from my mother and Aunt Sang, the only people I saw every day were my husband and Uncle Qi. Of course, my father would come sometimes. When he came, our house would be as lively as a festival."

Qin Xiang rarely mentioned Qin Xiongfei. Even when she mentioned it, it was about confrontation with him, full of calculations, and unconcealable hatred.

But after Ke Ren died, her hatred seemed to slowly disappear. Now when she mentioned her childhood, she discovered that she and her mother were also filled with joy at that time.

"When my father comes, he will bring me all kinds of fashionable clothing materials, some fashionable hairpins from Dancheng, and all kinds of books."

"My husband said that I was smart and spiritual. My father was very happy and kept looking for piano music and various spices."

"In order to make my father happier, I studied hard. I even worked harder than the men who needed to take the scientific examination."

"When my father was chatting, he would say that ladies from wealthy families never leave the house. So, I regarded every word and phrase that my father chatted with as an 'imperial edict' and strictly followed it, setting unlimited restrictions for myself. Even if my husband wants to take me out, I refuse.”

"I thought that I would be my father's favorite daughter. He would bring my mother back to the Qin family because of me and give her an upright name."

"It's just that I am too ignorant to know about concubines, and it is difficult. I fully thought that my father loves me, and as long as we are obedient and obedient, we can get a place to live in the Qin family."

"It's a pity that I later learned that my father's love is so weak. He has too many children, and even his concubines can't love them. How can he care about me, the daughter of an outsider?"

"After all, I'm still naive!" Qin Xiang sighed to herself, but after finishing speaking, she felt relieved.

After hearing this, Xiao Chenyu felt that he had a much better life than Qin Xiang. At least, before he was fourteen years old, he grew up carefree and pampered by thousands of people.

Qin Xiang's body was trapped in the small back house in the town, and her heart was also locked in that small world by herself. At a young age, she had learned to please her father and protect her mother, but she never seemed to think about herself.

Therefore, Xiao Hanyang is her only friend.

"Xiao Hanyang would sometimes come to my home to consult with my husband. He would bring me some novel gadgets. Those were the only things I could contact with the outside world. From those strange little things, I seemed to be able to see the outside world. A vast world.”

"Xiao Hanyang would tell me that Grandma Liu's pancakes are particularly fragrant because they have sesame seeds on them. He would buy one after school to satisfy his hunger."

There is also the old man who sells candy. He can make beautiful dragons, phoenixes, tigers, flowers, people and other candy figures.

"The only time I ever ate a candy man was when Xiao Hanyang gave it to me. I couldn't bear to eat it, and it turned into a puddle of sugar water. I was sad for a while."

Xiao Chenyu understood that Mrs. Su loved Qin Xiang very much, but she didn't know what her daughter was thinking. Besides, Mrs. Su herself didn't like to go out. I'm afraid she had never eaten a candy man, and she didn't understand that Qin Xiang wanted a candy man. .
