The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 55 The Newlyweds (2)
Ning stood up and helped her up: "Okay, let's go eat first, Ah Ju didn't sleep well last night? Are you hungry?"

Ah Ju's face was as red as blood, Ning's eyes swept over her high collar, and gave her son a meaningful look, Zhao Chen talked and laughed freely.

The three of them sat in the side hall, Ning sat on the north, and Zhao Chen and Aju sat on both sides of her, facing each other.

Zhao Chen's eyes fell on him from time to time, but Ah Ju pretended not to notice, and talked to Ning Shi seriously.

The little maids brought up breakfast.

Longan and lotus seed porridge, a plate of steaming steamed buns, and two side dishes are beyond the reach of ordinary people, but they are not too extravagant.

Ah Ju suddenly remembered the [-] silver notes.I wanted to return it to Zhao Chen last night, but somehow forgot, and couldn't help but look at the man opposite.

Zhao Chen immediately raised his eyes and looked back, thinking his wife was peeking at him, he smiled and put a small steamed bun on the plate in front of Ah Ju, and then added another one to Ning Shi, trying to stop his mother from saying it joke.

But Ning still said it, looked at Ah Ju and said: "Look, I have eaten with him for so many years, and I have never seen him pick something for me, and now I finally get the honor of my daughter-in-law."

Knowing that it was a joke, Ah Ju couldn't help but lower her head, scooped up a mouthful of porridge, and ate it quietly, hiding her shyness.

The little girl blushed, she looked more and more beautiful, Ning looked at her son, Zhao Chen smiled triumphantly.

When it was almost used up, another little maid brought over two bowls of soup on a tray and placed them in front of Zhao Chen's Aju.Ning smiled and said: "You two drink a bowl each, it will replenish your health."

Zhao Chen looked at Ah Ju, picked up the bowl and started to drink.

Although Ah Ju knew that he didn't need to mend, but this couldn't be explained, so he took the soup with shame.

The couple planned to talk to Ning Shi for a while, but Ning Shi thought about their "tiredness" last night and sent them back: "You go back to the house and rest, don't worry about me, I will have time to talk in the future."

The couple had to leave.

After leaving the yard, Zhao Chen held Ah Ju's hand again, and raised his chin towards the backyard: "Will you go around now?"

Ah Ju didn't know what to do, so she nodded, thinking that she would talk to him about the bank notes after going back after shopping for a while.

The two walked slowly to the backyard.Zhao Chen was very familiar with his own family, and most of the time his eyes fell on Ah Ju, who was quickly attracted by the autumn scenery in the yard.There are so many sycamore trees, each of which is as thick as two people hugging each other. Even if the leaves have fallen, they still look magnificent and refined under the blue sky. One can imagine what kind of vibrant scene it will be in summer.

Seeing that she liked it, Zhao Chen led her to look at the trees one by one. When he came to the sycamore tree with a big bird's nest, Zhao Chen stopped, pointed at the bird's nest and said to Ah Ju: "I moved here when I was nine years old, and this bird's nest was already here. At that time, I was still playful. When my mother was not paying attention, I secretly climbed a tree. I accidentally fell down and broke an arm. When I was recovering from my injury, my mother was right I couldn't be better, but as soon as I recovered, my mother beat me up. Ah Ju, you don't know how much pain I had at that time, but I kept looking at my mother and smiling... Some children in the village died early. I have a mother, but I have one, and I can still let my mother beat me."

His eyes wandered, as if thinking of his childhood, but Ah Ju thought of his younger brother, "Xiao Jiu also likes to climb trees to play, but I kept a close eye on him so that he would not climb. Once he sneaked out and I found him. Turn around Tell my mother, my mother also beat him hard, and he never dared to climb again." Now that she is not at home, she doesn't know if my brother is good or not, and if my sister is looking at him.

Zhao Chen remembered the day when his wife went to the river to find his younger brother, his heart softened, and he led her to the back of the tree. He leaned against the tree, hugged her in his arms, and smiled at her: "You care about Xiaojiu, but Do you know that Xiao Jiu told me that he annoys you the most, and he said that because of you, the big sister who takes care of everything, the friends in the village don't like to play with him."

Disliked by his younger brother, Ah Ju's face turned hot: "I'm doing it for his own good, just like last time, if he didn't happen to meet you, he would almost have an accident."

Zhao Chen smiled slightly and stared into her eyes: "Actually, I didn't just pass by by chance that time. I went hunting on purpose in the mountains near your home, thinking that I might meet Miss Lin on the way. God pays off, I'll go After turning around a few times, I really bumped into her. Not only did I see her, but I also fished her out of the water, and walked a few steps with her in my arms. Ah Ju, I fell in love with you at that time, did you find out? ?”

Ah Ju didn't expect him to say this, his voice was soft and soft, which made her surprised, nervous and uncontrollably happy.Recalling the scene of that day, his teasing, the burning eyes he looked at her, did she notice it?Of course she noticed something, that's why she was annoyed at his impoliteness, but the anger she used to have changed in retrospect now.

She blushed, Zhao Chen's heart softened, he couldn't help but want to say something, he took her hand and held it in his palm, "Aju, I know you don't want to see me, but you don't understand, I have you in my heart, I can't help but want to see you. When I see you, I can't help but want to see you smile at me, making you like me and willing to marry me. I'm very lucky. I almost gave up because of your repeated rejection At that time, you divorced. Ah Ju, do you still remember the letter I wrote to you? At that time, I was really angry and hated that person who failed you at all costs, but I was also very happy. I hope, but it's a pity that I'm too stupid, I still can't please you in the end, and I did a bad job again to marry you home, Ah Ju, are you still angry with me now?"

mad at him?
Ah Ju couldn't tell.If he was not so gentle to her, she might be angry, but he is so kind, listening to him speak slowly, she can only be happy...

But how can this be told to him?
Ah Ju turned her head, looked at the sycamore tree on the other side and said, "Let's go, it's not good to be seen by others like this."

Zhao Chen didn't let go, "You haven't answered me yet, are you still blaming me?"

He kept pestering him, Ah Ju had no choice but whispered to his chest: "We are married, so don't mention the past, as long as you don't bully others in the future, I won't blame you, after all, you have saved me too." I."

Zhao Chen smiled, and kissed her on the forehead: "You are so nice, why am I willing to bully you? Let's go, it's still a bit cold outside, let's go back to the house after walking around." After saying that, he took her hand and continued Go forward.

The autumn wind is blowing, the sun is shining from the leaves, the two figures overlap on the ground, occasionally hers is completely covered by him, as if there is only one person.

Back in the yard after shopping, a few little maids were kicking shuttlecocks and playing, lively and lively.

Cuiyu and Jinmo are playing, Cuiyu is playing seriously, Jinmo sees the two stop in a hurry, and lowers his head nervously.

Only then did Cuiyu realize that the young master and the young mistress had returned, and immediately put away the shuttlecock and ran to Aju's side, very proudly said: "Grandma, we have a shuttlecock kicking competition, and none of them can compare to me. Grandma, do you want to try?" She has a lively temper In front of Ah Ju, he is not as restrained as Lu Yun, but rather like Lin Zhu.

Ah Ju likes Cuiyu very much, so she complimented them and let them play by themselves.Cuiyu smiled and turned back, asking Jinmo if he dared to continue the competition.

Jin Mo looked at Zhao Chen worriedly.The young master Xijing doesn't like excitement, today the little maids encouraged Cuiyu to play, she couldn't help but join in.

Zhao Chen tilted his head and asked Ah Ju: "Do you find it noisy?"

Ah Ju shook her head, "Let's go in, I have something to tell you." Now she was thinking about the bank note, fearing that she would forget it again.

Zhao Chen entered the room with her.

The two walked side by side, the man was tall and straight, the woman was petite and exquisite, they couldn't match each other, the little maids couldn't help but secretly looked at them and whispered to each other.

Jin Mo's eyes were complicated.

After entering the house, Zhao Chen went to the kang first.There was a low table on the kang, and he poured two cups of hot tea with his own hands, then looked at Ah Ju with interest: "What do you want to say?"

Ah Ju took out the box containing the banknotes from under the box.

Zhao Chen couldn't help straightening his back, looking at her with a smile in his phoenix eyes: "A gift for me?"

Ah Ju is somewhat used to his thick skin. He just blushed a little when he heard the words, put the box in front of him, and when Zhao Chen opened it, he lowered his eyes and explained: "I, you gave too much dowry, I never After taking care of so much money, you should keep it yourself." If he gave 2000 taels, with the example of his aunt, Ah Ju could barely accept it, but if he gave 3 taels all at once, it would be enough for her to spend several lifetimes , Even if it was the bride price, Ah Ju was flustered when he took it.

Zhao Chen looked at her silently, his eyes revealed disbelief.

Ah Ju saw it, pursed her lips and said: "You are a rich man, these money may not be considered anything in your eyes, and you can take it out easily, but I am different, I have never seen so much money, and it is not easy to hold it. Don't worry, you should keep it, I don't need it anyway."

Zhao Chen didn't know what to say for a while, so he waved to her, "Come up, the kang is warm."

Ah Ju was afraid that he would make a fuss and dared not go up the kang, so Zhao Chen added, "Come up, let's have a good talk."

Ah Ju went up from the other side of the table and sat opposite him.

Zhao Chen had nothing to do with her, got up and turned around, sat down next to her, then hugged her on his lap, and looked down at her: "Ah Ju, I am a rich man, but I have never seen so much money. It’s all about the amount of money you give me every month. When I grew up, I learned to do business. At first I often lost money, even if it was only a few dozen taels, I would feel distressed, because the meaning is different, and losing means that I am useless.”

"Ah Ju, of the 3 taels, 1 were given to you by my parents. The elders can't refuse the gift, and you can keep it when they give it to you. Don't worry about someone stealing it. People outside don't dare to think about us. By your side Yes, whoever dares to move her mind, I have my own way to deal with her. As for the [-] taels of hire money, I earned it by myself, and I will give it to you. I want you to know how much I value you. You Just take it with peace of mind. You said it won’t be needed, and when we have sons and daughters in the future, won’t you subsidize them in private? Ah Ju, don’t mention whether you have money or not. Once you marry me, you will be a rich young lady. Do you understand? To be honest, you are richer than me now, so I am the one who wants to win you over, and I will try my best to please you..."

After talking about it, he started to be dishonest again, and touched the bottom of her shirt with his hand.

Ah Ju was flustered, and held down his hand not to touch it: "Don't..."

"Then you promise me that you are only allowed to ask me for money in the future, and you are not allowed to give me any more money. Ah Ju, I am your husband-in-law, and it is only right and proper to earn money to support you. Just follow along happily as much as I give you, remember. Is it?" Zhao Chen gently teased her earlobe, and said domineering words softly.

His arms were so tightly hugged, his broad chest pressed against her back, Ah Ju's heart beat faster and faster, and he turned his head to hide, but he held her face and kissed her.
