Qi Zhongyu and Lu Dongfu walked hand in hand by the lotus pond. At this time, the sky had completely dimmed, and under the bright moonlight, one could vaguely see the scene in the courtyard.

Qi Zhongyu took a deep breath, smelling the sweet scent of grass and trees, and even felt a lot more relaxed and relaxed.

Lu Dongfu said with a smile: "Sanggong must have worked hard on the mountain today, I only regret that I have no strength to restrain a chicken, otherwise I can go up the mountain to help him."

Qi Zhongyu couldn't help laughing, "You have a lot of skills, you don't have to sell your labor, you can embroider and cook at home, and I will handle things on the mountain. Don't worry, I hired dozens of young and strong men to help me build a house , I only need to command on one side, and I can’t get tired.”

Lu Dongfu thought what she said was true, so she breathed a sigh of relief: "It's so good, I'd rather spend more money than be tired."

Qi Zhongyu responded with a smile.

After walking around the lotus pond, Lu Dongfu remembered that she saw the third sister when she returned home today, and couldn't help thinking that on the day of her wedding, her elder sister Lu Daya came to congratulate her newlyweds.

She was busy with her marriage at the time, so she knew that the elder sister was in a bad situation, but she never chased her out, and she didn't know how she was doing now.

Lu Dongfu was in a sad mood. In fact, from the appearance and character of the eldest sister, it could be seen that the eldest sister is not doing well. If she is really loved by her husband, she should be flushed like her and the third sister, with raised eyebrows and eyes, but At that time, the eldest sister was full of sorrow, and she was shivering...

Lu Dongfu was very worried about Eldest Sister. In fact, when she occasionally thought about it these days, she would be very worried.

It's just that during the wedding period, it's not easy to go to the elder sister's husband's house to bother her, but now that the three dynasties have passed, she should also find some time to go to Linxi Village next door to see with her own eyes how the elder sister is doing in Peng's house.

In fact, she has already determined in her heart that the eldest sister must not be doing very well, but...

"What are you thinking? Frowning."

Qi Zhongyu beside him asked in a low voice. In the quiet moonlight, the other party's voice was gentle and pleasant.

Lu Dongfu bit her lips lightly, and said hesitantly, "I...Master, I want to go to Linxi Village tomorrow."

"Linxi Village?" Qi Zhongyu thought of the village that is also under the jurisdiction of Siyuan County, which is the farthest from Siyuan County among several counties under its jurisdiction.

If you start from Yuehe Village, you need to walk for two hours to get there. Although it is next door, you have to go over mountains and mountains. The mountains are very difficult to walk. What is Lu Dongfu doing there?

Lu Dongfu quickly explained: "My eldest sister, Huainan Road was hit by locust plagues ten years ago, and the family couldn't survive, so my mother sent my eldest sister to the next-door Linxi Village, where the Peng family, who was a little richer, was a child bride. On the day I got married, my eldest sister came back to visit me, and at that time... my eldest sister didn't look very well, I was worried that she would be despised by the Peng family if she had no reliable natal family to rely on during her stay in the Peng family."

Qi Zhongyu has also seen families with child brides. For those families, child brides are like servants bought with three meals a day. Any dirty work can be pushed to child brides. The status of child brides in the family is extremely low .

It is also common for people to be tortured to death by unreliable people.

She had never heard of this matter before, but she also understood that it was too easy to be careless. She tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "Your elder sister is your blood relative, so you should go and visit her in person, but you will go there alone. Linxi Village, I don’t worry, how about this, you wait at home for a day tomorrow, and prepare some gifts by the way, and I will take you there when I settle the affairs on the mountain the day after tomorrow.”

"Look, how about this?"

Lu Dongfu was full of surprise, and said, "Sister-in-law wants to go with me? That's really great."

After she was happy, she pursed her lips in embarrassment, and murmured: "Is it going to be bad, I don't want to embarrass my husband."

Ever since Qi Zhongyu got to know her, she seemed to have been doing business at a loss, and she didn't want to cause trouble for the other party because of her own affairs.

Qi Zhongyu couldn't help laughing. She had nothing to do at all. In the past, she spent most of her time in retreat and practicing kung fu except for eating and hunting on the mountain. Now that she is married to a woman, she can

It's also good to go out for a walk.

And if this is a lady's business, it is naturally her business, she still remembers that husband and wife should be of the same mind.

She comforted: "It's okay, your business is my business, not to mention that you are willing to take the initiative to find the elder sister, which means that the other party is a person who can make friends. As a sister-in-law, I also want to meet her in person."

When Lu Dongfu heard this, she smiled and said, "My eldest sister is very kind. She was the one who took care of me when I was young. I still remember..."

She babbled about the past with Lu Daya when she was a child, and Qi Zhongyu listened quietly without interrupting her.

It wasn't until Lu Dongfu said that her mouth was dry, that Qi Zhongyu led her back into the house, poured a cup of herbal tea and handed it to her, and said, "I see, then prepare more gifts, and then go to Peng's house to visit Eldest Sister."

Lu Dongfu drank the herbal tea, and her throat felt much more comfortable. She nodded hurriedly, thinking about what to bring there.

However, one day tomorrow, when she has free time, she can make Qi Zhongyu's two clothes, and then go to Siyuan County, sell the handkerchiefs, and study the popular large-scale embroidery patterns on the market.

She made a decision in her heart, and seeing that it was getting late, she put down the teacup and went to take a bath in the back room. Qi Zhongyu poured a cup of tea and drank it, thinking: It seems that Lu Daya's life is not very easy, as if she has encountered domestic violence The thing she hates the most in her life is domestic violence, Peng's family, Peng An, please pray that she didn't go too far, otherwise she will definitely take action and teach the other party an unforgettable lesson!

She took a deep breath, recalling the unpleasant experience in her childhood, she felt depressed for a moment, and when she heard the sound of water in the back room stopped, she got up and lay down on the bed to prepare to rest.

After a while, Lu Dongfu came out with her long hair loose. She combed her ink-like long hair with her fingers, and after blowing out the candle, she also climbed onto the bed.

The two are now used to each other's existence, Lu Dongfu sniffed the cold fragrance at the end of his nose, and fell into a dream.

On the contrary, Qi Zhongyu opened his eyes and looked at the top of the bed, and fell asleep in the middle of the night.

The next day, after breakfast, the two went their separate ways. After watching Qi Zhongyu leave, Lu Dongfu went to the house to pack the presents that he was going to bring to the eldest sister's house tomorrow.

She wanted to bring some more, but when she thought about the situation of the eldest sister, even if she took them, it would probably not fall into the hands of the eldest sister, so she decided to hide them and secretly give the eldest sister a tael of silver for urgent use in private.

She casually packed a small bundle, took out the wooden box containing the embroidery work, and set off for Siyuan County.

Because it was already morning, there were quite a lot of people on the road, but they all avoided Lu Dongfu this time, but they still pointed and pointed, and Lu Dongfu didn't think about what kind of bad things they were saying about him, because Qi Zhongyu didn't care , so she doesn't care.

Why waste time with irrelevant people?

She came to the county seat quickly, and went straight to Jinxiu Pavilion. Because she only came here not long ago, and because of her outstanding appearance, the clerk recognized her and came forward to greet her warmly.

Lu Dongfu opened the wooden box and took out the embroidery, and asked, "I wonder how much silver taels this embroidery can sell for?"

The buddy is an honest person. In Siyuan County, those who really expand their business will not deceive others because of a small profit.

Seeing that Lu Dongfu came here this time not to buy cloth, but to sell embroidery work, he said to wait a moment, then went not far away to wash his hands with clean water, wiped them clean, and then turned back to take Lu Dongfu. Looking at the embroidery in Fu's hands, she sighed.

The pattern of this embroidery is novel, not a common type in Siyuan County. The stitching is so tight that no leaks can be seen. What's more rare is that the two sides are embroidered with different patterns. Although one side is delicate and the other is rough, it is extremely rare. Exquisite double-sided embroidery, a handkerchief can be sold for ten taels of silver.

Now it is greatly discounted, but it is worth two or three taels. Of course, this is the price of selling it elsewhere. They also need to make money when they receive the goods in Jinxiu Pavilion, so the clerk said sincerely: "Guest officer, your embroidery work Exquisite, if it can be accompanied by better cloth and silk threads, it must be able to sell for a higher price, how about it, as a first-time guest, I will offer you a high price, one or two or three dollars, what do you think?"

The price was already higher than what Lu Dongfu estimated. Although it was only three cents higher, it was still a lot.

She responded with a smile, took the money handed over by the other party, and asked the buddy about the favorite tricks of rich businessmen in Siyuan County.

Seeing her superb embroidery work, the clerk patiently answered her questions, and found a large piece of embroidery work in the Jinxiu Pavilion for her to look at. Thanks to the enthusiastic fellow, he turned and went to the street market to buy some sweets and snacks.

She still remembered that her eldest sister had given birth to a son and a daughter over the years, the daughter was a little older, and the son was born last year, who was only about one year old.

She wants to bring something to her nephew and niece, things that children like are the best.

After buying something, she spent another two coins, so she rushed back to Yuehe Village with the remaining silver.

The eldest sister's visiting gift was well prepared, so she made something casual for lunch, then took out her needle and thread and started making clothes for Qi Zhongyu.

Qi Zhongyu was tall and thin, but he was not skinny, but lean and powerful, but it didn't match his usual reputation. It was hard to imagine that such a thin and tall figure would contain extremely terrifying strength.

Lu Dongfu was not as afraid of Qi Zhongyu as the villagers and even the Zhang family, and even felt at ease. She cut out a rough outline on the cloth with scissors, and began to sew.

Sewing clothes is not like doing embroidery. For Lu Dongfu, it is much simpler and easier.

She quickly became proficient in doing it, and the sewing speed was also accelerated a lot. By the evening, she had finished sewing a set of clothes. She spread it out on the bed, looked carefully, and fetched water to wash it. Hang it up and wear it when it dries tomorrow.

Seeing that it was getting late outside, she went to the kitchen to cook. The second uncle would send a cook to deliver fresh ingredients every other day, including vegetables, fruits, and meat.

In return, Lu Dongfu will also cook some delicate dishes for the cook to bring back.

No matter how close the relationship is, you can't just ask for it without paying, so that even the most warm-hearted second uncle will be cold-hearted because of it.

Although Lu Dongfu was not good at words, she knew how to measure, which made Qi Changle, who received the gift next door, even more satisfied, and felt that the marriage was done right.

You must know that Qi Zhongyu would thank him before, but every time he was very direct, either carrying the prey in the moonlight, or helping him with the rough work at home, even the thank you was very simple and concise, which made him dumbfounded.

Now that Qi Zhongyu has married a wife, it happens that the bride's thoughtfulness makes up for the carelessness of the other party.

As soon as Qi Changle was happy, he ordered the cook to send more ingredients, which made Qi Anhao, who was studying at home, puff up his cheeks angrily.

And Qi Zhongyu on the mountain has finally finished his work today, with her help, the most tiring work is almost done, even if she is not present tomorrow, Gao Cheng can still arrange short-term workers to continue the construction.

When the short-term workers sat down to rest, she told them that she would not be able to come to the mountain tomorrow and asked them to work on their own.

The laborers ate a few wild animals that Qi Zhongyu brought in today, and became more and more loyal to Qi Zhongyu. Not only did they not feel dissatisfied when they heard this, they patted their chests and assured Qi Zhongyu that they would continue to work hard.

Qi Zhongyu responded with a smile, and after they rested for a while, he took them down the mountain. After parting at the foot of the mountain, Qi Zhongyu returned home.

After having a light meal, she finished washing today's clothes, looked at the new clothes hanging outside the house, and said in surprise, "You've already done it? It's so fast."

Lu Dongfu stepped forward and touched the hem of the clothes, and said, "It's not dry yet, and I will be able to change into this clothes tomorrow morning."

Qi Zhongyu is looking forward to it. This is the first time she wears tailor-made clothes. In the past, there were brothers who were enthusiastic about helping her make clothes, and even paid for the money. It's just that she didn't want someone to tailor her clothes, so He was fooled by the excuse that he didn't care about clothing.

And Lu Dongfu is different from those sworn brothers. She is his wife, and there are not so many complicated power entanglements behind him. He can trust her with peace of mind. cause too much impact.

only

……

Qi Zhongyu came back to his senses, looked at Lu Dongfu, and saw that she still had a slight smile on her face. It seemed that after she married him, she always had such a satisfied and reassuring smile.

Is it really so practical and happy to marry yourself?

She finally has the ability to protect the person she wants to protect?

She shook her head, throwing away her extra thoughts, and Lu Dongfu asked, "Sir, what's the matter?"

Qi Zhongyu touched his neck and said: "It's nothing, I just vaguely feel that there are mosquitoes, maybe it's my illusion."

Lu Dongfu didn't ignore it, but went to the cabinet to find the wormwood, lit it under the candle, and put it on a copper plate to smoke.

She said: "After ordering wormwood, there may be fewer mosquitoes."

Qi Zhongyu moved his lips, and suddenly raised his feet to walk in front of her. She was much taller than this adolescent girl, whose weak shoulders and slender figure could be cut off with a light pinch.

But she has her own tenacity, and it was this tenacity to fear death that attracted her back then.

She lowered her head, and couldn't help raising her hands to put on Lu Dongfu's thin shoulders. Before the other party's suspicious eyes cast over, she lowered her body and put her forehead against the other party's fragile neck.

The other party's body is warm, and the smell on her body is sweet. She is such a lovely and good girl.

She took a deep breath, raised her head when Lu Dongfu asked shyly and worriedly, let go of her hands as if nothing had happened, picked the wormwood in the copper plate, and said, "There are mosquitos."

Lu Dongfu looked around, although she didn't see any mosquitoes, but Qi Zhongyu was very skilled in martial arts, if she said there were mosquitos, there must be.

Just now, the other party's sudden approach may also be related to this.

She stretched out her hand to cover her restless chest, but when she saw Qi Zhongyu turned around and went to bed, she originally wanted to say, don't you need to go for a walk in the yard today?

But the atmosphere around Qi Zhongyu was not quite right, so she tactfully didn't mention it, and after blowing out the candle, she also climbed onto the bed.

She walked two distances today, and she was really tired, so she went to bed earlier than usual.

After she fell asleep, she turned over and stuck to Qi Zhongyu's body again.

Qi Zhongyu grabbed her fingers and kneaded them, but the other party didn't wake up, but his sleep became heavier day by day.

The other party's soft and gentle breath fell on her arm, and the clothes were very thin, and she could feel the faint heat sprayed out.

She didn't know what she was thinking, or maybe she didn't think of anything, but only remembered a thought.

Getting married and marrying a wife is indeed a major event in life, which makes her different from before.

She closed her eyes, closed her skirt again, and fell asleep grasping Lu Dongfu's warm fingers.

In the early morning of the second day, after the two had breakfast, they set off for Linxi Village next door to visit their elder sister Lu Daya.

After returning to the village, Lu Dongfu only went to Siyuan County, but never to Linxi Village.

If she went there alone, she might still get lost in the mountains. Fortunately, Qi Zhongyu, who knew the way, was by her side, and she could obediently follow her along the way.

Before Qi Zhongyu decided to settle in Yuehe Village, he traveled the entire Siyuan County once.

At that time, she kept her name incognito, concealed her description, pretended to be an ordinary passerby, and did not attract the attention of others.

She didn't make a real decision until she confirmed that there was no special sect under the jurisdiction of Siyuan County, or even a power that covered the sky with one hand, and she pretended to be Qi Changgui's son, and met Qi Changle, the head of Yuehe Village, and won Gained an aboveboard identity.

She thought that when she came to Yuehe Village, she just wanted to bury the bones of Qi Changgui's family of three that she had no choice but to hastily bury in the deep mountains of her hometown.

Although Qi Changgui never said anything about it before his death, she knew that the other party also wanted to go back. When people get old, they would want to return to their roots, especially the ancients from other worlds.

After she buried the poor family of three, she was infected by the peaceful atmosphere of the deep mountains and villages.

original

She just came here in a hurry, and she wanted to continue wandering around the world, but she was really tired at that time. After so many things, she wanted to find a village with the same mountains and rivers as the village she lived in when she was a child, and settle down in seclusion.

Yuehe Village is a good choice, with mountains and rivers and simple folk customs, it is a good place to live and work in peace.

Borrowing the identity of Qi Changgui's son, she was able to officially settle down in Yuehe Village, so she made up her mind to guard the grave of Qi Changgui, her adoptive father, in the mountains for a year.

This is what she has experienced this year.

Needless to mention the past, she still clearly remembers the customs of Linxi Village. Although it is the next door to Yuehe Village, it is a village with a more clan system.

Most people in the village have the surname Zhou, and they are extremely xenophobic on weekdays, and they are very wary of strangers who appear in the village. There are only a very small number of people who fled the famines and came here to settle down, and the Peng family is one of them.
