Wen didn't sleep well last night. She wanted to go out and see Dachun to see where he was sleeping, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.

In the past, if she was angry, he would sometimes coax her, but this time, for some reason, he suddenly went against his usual behavior and turned around and left.

Dachun was also unable to sleep, but his thoughts were different from Wen's. He was not thinking about his wife, but a maid named Cui Feng.

Dachun didn't know why, but Cui Feng's every smile and frown would unconsciously appear in his mind. This girl was like the spring rain, moistening everything silently.

For Dachun, it was like a long-awaited rain. Although he was a young master, he felt a little helpless in front of Cui Feng.

That kind of clumsy feeling is like the feeling a young boy has when he meets a girl he likes.

Dachun suddenly thought of this, and immediately felt annoyed. But he was no longer a young man, he was already the father of two children.

Dachun tossed and turned, and didn't know when he finally fell asleep.

Wen was also tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, and remained in a daze until dawn. She did not sleep well at night, and her eyes were swollen when she woke up in the morning.

The two of them came out one after the other to have breakfast. Shen Ping saw that they were in poor condition and had panda eyes, and she couldn't help but feel strange.

"What happened to you two? Why does it look to me like you're not in good shape?"

Wen forced a smile: "Mom, it's okay, I just felt a little hot last night and didn't sleep well."

Is it hot at night? Shen Ping was surprised. It was still a little cool in this mountain village at night. But seeing that Dachun didn't say anything, she didn't ask again.

Everyone had their own thoughts. After breakfast, Dachun and his wife went out one after another.

Wen originally wanted to wait for Dachun to go out together, but Dachun was dawdling, and after waiting for a while and not seeing him come out, Wen left on her own.

Dachun, who was in the room, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Wen leave, and then walked out slowly. He really didn't know what to say to Wen.

He wanted to apologize but was too embarrassed to do so. Plus, he had a great time chatting and laughing with Cui Feng last night, and he was still thinking about Cui Feng before going to bed, so he was in an excited state.

After calming down, he seemed to feel a little guilty towards Wen family. This complicated mentality made him really at a loss for words.

As he was thinking, Dachun looked around subconsciously, and found that Cui Feng was nowhere to be found. He suddenly felt inexplicably lost in his heart.

At this time, a person walked towards him. Dachun was busy looking back and didn't see him, and bumped into the other person.

"Ouch~"

Suddenly there was a scream, a sweet fragrance came to his nose, and a soft touch on his chest. Only then did Dachun realize that he had bumped into someone.

Seeing that the other person was about to fall to the ground, Dachun was so scared that he subconsciously hugged her with his backhand. Fortunately, he hugged her before she fell to the ground.

Dachun took a closer look and didn't expect that the girl he bumped into was Cui Feng. The soft touch of their bodies pressed together made his mouth dry.

As luck would have it, this scene was also seen by the third daughter-in-law of the next room, Wu. Fearing that Dachun would find out and be embarrassed, Wu quickly turned around and went back to her room.

Looking at the young master who was staring at her, Cui Feng blushed and quickly stood up, lowering her head and said, "Young Master~"

Dachun looked concerned: "I didn't pay attention, did I hurt you?"

"It's okay!" Cui Feng shook her head. Suddenly, she saw Shen Ping's cold eyes behind her. Cui Feng was shocked and said in a panic, "Young Master, it's none of your business. It's all my fault for not watching the road."

Then, Cui Feng hurriedly walked in and bowed to Shen Ping: "Madam~"

When Dachun heard this, he couldn't help but think to himself, "Oh no! Mom is watching me from behind!"

He could feel a pair of eyes staring at him from behind, and he felt as if he was being pricked by a thorn, so he quickly walked out of the house.

Shen Ping saw Dachun's reaction just now. She didn't know if she was overthinking it. She always felt that there was something ambiguous between Dachun and Cui Feng.

Thinking back to Dachun and his wife this morning, I always felt that something was wrong with them.

Shen Ping looked at Cui Feng and asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Cui Feng, if I remember correctly, you should be 17 years old this year."

"Ma'am, yes!"

Not knowing why the lady asked this, Cui Feng answered cautiously.

Shen Ping looked at Cui Feng and said, "Cui Feng, you and I have been together for more than a year. You are now at an age suitable for marriage. The Cuihong sisters are already married. Do you have a man you like?"

I don’t know why, but when Cui Feng heard Shen Ping ask this, the eldest young master’s face unconsciously appeared in front of her eyes, and her face suddenly turned red.

Then he knelt on the ground and said in panic: "Madam, did Cui Feng do something wrong? I won't marry you. You are my savior. I want to be by your side and serve you like a slave!"

"Silly boy!"

Shen Ping smiled: "You are a girl, and you should get married at this age. Look at Cuihong and Cuihua, they are both married. If there is no one, how about I help you find one?" Shen Ping looked at Cui Feng calmly.

Cui Feng is much more beautiful than when she first came back. Her skin has become much whiter and her body has become fuller.

Although Dachun's face was facing away from her just now, she could clearly sense that Dachun was obviously too concerned about Cui Feng. His behavior was just like that of a peacock spreading its tail.

"What do you think of Liu Gui?"

Shen Ping mentioned Liu Gui to Cui Feng.

Liu Gui is 18 years old this year. He is honest and kind, but also a bit taciturn. His mother died early, and his father remarried and had two more sons.

His stepmother didn't like him, and his father didn't like him either. He was hungry at home. Once, he had a fight with his younger brother and knocked out one of his front teeth.

In a fit of rage, the stepmother instigated his father, saying that he was a traitor and that he would be an ungrateful person when he was raised, and that she should sell him to a pawnbroker as soon as possible.

Cui Feng knew Liu Gui, a dark and strong man who didn't talk much. Putting aside his appearance, Cui Feng didn't want to marry a servant from the bottom of her heart because he would never have a chance to make a name for himself.

But as a maid, what other choice did she have if she didn't marry a servant? At this moment, Dachun's face appeared in front of Cui Feng's eyes again, and she was stunned for a moment.

"Madam, I already have someone I like." Cui Feng bit her lip.

Shen Ping raised her eyebrows: "Oh~ Then tell me, and let me give you an idea. If it's suitable, I will also help you with the wedding."

"Madam, this matter is not urgent. Let's talk about it later. Uncle Dadong asked me to find you just now and told you to go to the fields!" Cui Feng just remembered at this time that she almost forgot the important matter.

It turned out that this period was the cotton harvest season, but Dadong discovered that the cotton trees were infested with insects and could not be controlled no matter how many methods he tried.

The number of these pests is increasing. Some cotton bolls are not even old enough, but the trees have already withered. How can Dadong not be anxious?
