Song Huiling paused, met the gazes of Xu Xianzhang and Zhou, and continued:

"But my brother Yun Sui is not destined to be with me. Since I married He Zhan by mistake, he will be my only husband from now on.

The friendship I have for Brother Yunsui should also be buried deep in my heart. He will return to the court to show his talents in the future, and there will be women who are better than me around him. My friendship for him will also be worn away by time.

What's more, my husband treats me very well. It's inevitable that I have developed feelings for him after spending some time with him. From now on, I just want my heart to be slowly occupied by him. As long as my husband doesn't leave me, I will never abandon him in this life.

Grandpa and grandma, please don't worry about me and Brother Yunsui in the future, and don't ask questions like this again. My husband will be sad if he knows. "

How could Xu Xianzhang and Zhou not understand that their granddaughter had changed her heart?

It's no wonder. The boy surnamed He looks similar to Xie Yunsui. It's inevitable that young women would be attracted to him after spending so much time with him.

"In that case, grandma won't say any more words in the future." Zhou sighed and suddenly had a bold idea.

Xiu'er still can't let go of Xie Yunsui, and has fallen in love with He Zhan. It would be a relief if she could accept both men.

When this thought came to her mind, her body trembled suddenly. It was unheard of even for princesses of the time to have two husbands serving one wife.

What's more, those two kids are strong-willed at heart, so how could they be willing to share their loved ones with another person?

Song Huiling had no idea of ​​Zhou's absurd idea, she just thought this explanation was reasonable.

If they said that she had completely forgotten her childhood sweetheart Xie Yunsui in less than a month, not only them, but also others would not believe it.

He Zhan finally slowly fetched up a bucket of water, but his emotions were complicated: angry, helpless, and relieved.

The little liar was clearly obsessed with Xie Yunsui, but he swore that he was the only one in his heart.

When He Zhan thought that Song Huiling had two men in her heart at the same time, and one of them was him, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

He has devoted his whole life to her, but now he has to share her heart with another man.

He Zhan was so angry that he was about to get internal injuries, but he couldn't change the time when Song Huiling and Xie Yunsui spent together as childhood sweethearts, so no matter how angry he was, he could only accept this fact.

The past cannot be changed, but as his wife said, he will occupy her heart completely in the future and make her heart belong to him alone.

While waiting for the water to boil, He Zhan washed the fresh fruits bought by Song Huiling and brought them to the main room, looking like a good grandson-in-law.

Zhou felt bad and quickly asked him to sit down, but he pushed his sleeves up again and said, "Ling'er bought a few pounds of ribs. I'll go wash them and stew them to nourish the old man."

He moved quickly and left the house.

Zhou followed He Zhan's figure and looked outside the house. Song Huiling raised his hand and waved it in front of her, laughing softly, "Grandma, don't worry about him. He is also busy at home."

Zhou retracted her gaze and looked at Xu Xianzhang, who was leaning on the couch with a cane. She snorted with a hint of meaning, "It's rare to find a man as caring as Xiao He. At least, grandma has never met one in her life."

Xu Xianzhang immediately sat up straight and held up three fingers to show his true feelings: "When my legs and feet are healed, I will definitely do the same as Xiao He!"

Song Huiling smiled secretly, and then asked Zhou: "Grandma, where are my uncle and his family? Why can't I see them?"

Xu Xianzhang spoke before Zhou: "I went to the stable to feed the horses. I should be back for lunch by now."

"Ah?" Song Huiling was a little surprised. "Didn't you say you were only responsible for easy tasks like sweeping and cleaning? Why do you have to feed the horses?"

Seeing Song Huiling's slightly open-mouthed look, Zhou suddenly laughed and raised her hand to tap her on the head: "Your aunt and I are doing the sweeping. Your uncle and your cousin are strong, so they should take on the heavier work."

Song Huiling touched her chin, thinking deeply. Her uncle and cousin were both scholars with thin bodies, and they were not strong at all.

Having not seen each other for a long time, Xu Xianzhang and Zhou kept chatting with Song Huiling.

After arriving in Qianzhong, Song Huiling was forced to separate from the Xu family. At that time, she was so weak that she could be blown away by a gust of wind.

Xu Xianzhang and Zhou had always been concerned about her and tried every means to find out about her. A few days later, He Zhan came to find them and told them that he was getting married to Song Huiling. He also said that she was weak now and could not withstand the hardship, and that she would meet them after she recovered.

Xu Xianzhang and Zhou held on like this until finally this day came.

The three of them chatted and time passed by unknowingly.

It was not until He Zhan brought a few plates of stir-fried dishes that Zhou stood up from the stool in annoyance: "Look at me, I forgot that there was rice cooking on the stove, and now you have to do it yourself, Xiao He."

"Madam, it's my duty. It's not right for the elders to worry when the younger generation is around." He Zhan had a smile on his face. He was the most obedient person Song Huiling had ever seen. Even in front of his own mother, he had never been so obedient.

Zhou was relieved by these words and praised sincerely, "Xiao He is really thoughtful. Even Yun Sui is not as diligent as you."

As soon as the words fell, the air was dead silent.

Xu Xianzhang and Song Huiling both looked at Zhou at the same time. Didn’t they agree not to mention this matter?

Zhou quickly raised her hand and patted her mouth, her face full of embarrassment and shame for saying the wrong thing.

But He Zhan acted as if nothing had happened, his smile deepened a little, and he pretended not to hear: "I'll go get some food."

After he left, the three people in the room stared at each other.

Song Huiling felt that the more nonchalant He Zhan appeared to be, the more evil he was harboring in his heart, and he would definitely put the blame on her when he returned.

Grandma, you really killed my granddaughter!

Her poor right hand is about to be lost.

To Song Huiling's surprise, He Zhan really didn't take this matter to heart, and even felt secretly happy about crushing Xie Yunsui.

Who is Xie Yunsui? As long as he wants, he can do better than him!

He Zhan prepared the table cloth and the bowls and chopsticks, and Xu Xianzhang asked everyone to start eating.

Song Huiling glanced outside the house and asked, "Don't we have to wait for my uncle and the others?"

Xu Xianzhang slowly moved to the table with his cane: "No need, the horse farm provides meals, and they have to eat before coming back after work."

Song Huiling said "oh" and then started eating with peace of mind.

But the food of the Xu family was not as good as that of the He family. The rice they ate was mixed with a lot of coarse cornmeal. Every time she took a bite, her throat felt like it was cut by a knife and she had difficulty swallowing.

But the other three people at the table were eating with gusto.

He Zhan looked up and saw Song Huiling swallowing painfully. He put down his bowl and was about to stand up: "Madam, I will make you some rice separately."

Song Huiling waved the chopsticks in her hand and said, "No, no, it will take a while for the food to be cooked again. I'm too hungry to bear it anymore. I'll just eat it."

After saying that, she looked at Xu Xianzhang and Zhou in confusion. She didn't expect that these two old people were so able to endure hardships.

Xu Xianzhang understood what Song Huiling was thinking. He paused for a moment and chuckled, "Xiu'er, don't forget that our grandparents were from humble backgrounds and suffered a lot before they rose to prominence. When we were young, we couldn't even afford rice mixed with corn. Our lives today are much better than before."

Song Huiling admired him. If one lives in comfort for too long, he would forget what it was like to live a hard life. Moreover, it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. However, Xu Xianzhang was able to keep his original intention and was happy with all the hardships.

With this mentality of being able to endure hardships and enjoy happiness, they can live a good life no matter what situation they are in.
