Later.
Seeing that it was almost time, Zhao Jing left with Lin Anan.
Lin Anan hadn't started sewing her new clothes yet, so she was still wearing her previous clothes.
It was only late at night, and many people were sitting at their doorsteps enjoying the cool.
There were many people gathered at the door.
Seeing Zhao Jing walking out with Lin Anan, they all looked at them curiously.
"Xiao Jing, where are you going at this time?”Some people who were familiar with him greeted him when they saw him.
Then, he looked at Lin Anan suspiciously.
Lin Anan lowered her head, not daring to raise it.
Many people's discussions reached their ears.
"Is this the new wife that Xiao Jing married? Lin Anan, right?"
"Look at her skinny and small appearance. She doesn't look like a good mother.”
"Today, the Clan Leader and Zhao Youtian went to the Lin Family Village. I heard that they were only willing to return two taels of silver.”
Lin Anan bit her lip and looked up at Zhao Jing, who was walking beside her, feeling a little lost.
Zhao Jing seemed to have sensed something. He looked down at her and smiled at her.
Then, Lin Anan felt her hand being pulled by a big hand.
Then, Zhao Jing raised his voice and replied to the person beside him,""Wen Gao is back. I'll bring Anan to Uncle's house for dinner.”
"I'll leave first. Everyone, take your time to chat."
Zhao Jing shook Lin Anan's hand and said gently,""Say hello to the aunties, then we'll go to First Uncle's house.”
Zhao Jing's open and aboveboard appearance made many speculations quiet down.
Lin Anan felt a little helpless as he held her hand. The heat on her face only returned after she realized what was going on.
They…they held hands!
She was a little nervous and wanted to see the reactions of the people around her. However, when she saw her husband's matter-of-fact look, she could only force herself to be calm.
"Aunties, how are you?"
The voice was so soft that only she could hear it.
Zhao Jing added with a smile," An 'an is still young and shy. I hope you can take good care of her in the future."”
Hearing Zhao Jing say this so politely, the aunties were too embarrassed to say anything else.
Some of them who were close to Zhao Jing's family smiled and asked them to hurry over.
Zhao Jing led Lin Anan across the main road and walked for about a few hundred meters.
He would bring Lin Anan along to greet everyone he met along the way and introduce the children beside him. He did not seem to mind at all.
After the two of them left, the people in the village could not help but gather in groups of two or three to talk about this matter.
"Looking at Xiao Jing, why does he seem to like this little girl?”
"Look at his attitude. He has introduced us seriously, as if he is afraid that we will bully his little girl.”
"Aiyo, you guys don't know, right? This little girl has a prosperous husband."
"Xiao Jing is in the city today."
Some of the people who came back with Zhao Jing in the ox-cart in the morning talked about what had happened in the past two days with others again.
After everyone heard this, they were all amazed.
When Lin Anan went out again, she felt that the villagers 'impression of her had improved a lot.
This was exactly what Zhao Jing wanted to see.
However, at this moment, the two of them were holding hands as they walked on the small road in the countryside.
Zhao Jing was completely focused and did not have any strange thoughts.
However, Lin Anan kept her head down and couldn't stop smiling foolishly as she watched the two of them holding hands.
She quietly raised her head and glanced at her husband beside her. Then, she slowly approached him.
The distance between the two of them was getting closer and closer, and their arms were almost touching.
Suddenly, Zhao Jing stood still.
Caught off guard, Lin An's entire body crashed into Zhao Jing.
"Don't look where you're going." Zhao Jing smiled.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a soft "hmph".
"Uncle," Zhao Jing looked up and smiled.”
Zhao Youtian responded. He didn't look at Lin Anan and said,""Come in."
Zhao Jing led Lin Anan in. Zhao Wengao was playing with his younger brother and sister in the living room.
He didn't want to get up when he saw Zhao Jing.
Zhao Youtian glanced at him lightly, so he could only stand up and say obediently,""Hello, big brother."
Then, he looked at Lin Anan, who was beside Zhao Jing, and asked in confusion,""Big Brother, when did you buy a servant?”
Lin Anan blushed.
"What are you talking about? She's your sister-in-law," Zhao Jing said helplessly.”
Zhao Wengao's eyes almost fell to the ground.
Sister-in-law?
Didn't his father tell Zhao Jing about a woman from a good family?
This little girl was wearing a set of patched clothes. Although she was not bad looking, she looked skinny and small.
Standing beside Zhao Jing, wasn't he just like a little servant?
After receiving Zhao Youtian's fierce glare, Zhao Wengao quickly said,""Haha, so it's sister-in-law!"
He laughed and said a few words before quickly closing his mouth and shrinking to the side.
Zhao Jing smiled and pulled Lin Anan to a chair.
"Husband, let me go to the backyard to help."
Lin Anan whispered.
She was used to working and was not used to sitting here and waiting for dinner.
Moreover, because of what happened two days ago, she was a little afraid of Zhao Jing's uncle.
"Alright then," Zhao Jing said with a smile.
"Eldest Aunt is in the backyard. Go help her.”
Zhao Jing pointed the way for Lin Anan, but Zhao Youtian didn't say anything.
After Lin Anan went in, Zhao Youtian said,""He's quite diligent."
"Eldest Uncle still has some new cloth at home. Later, you can take it back and make two sets of better clothes for her.”
"Otherwise, if others see it, they will think that you have mistreated her.”
Zhao Youtian was a stubborn but soft-hearted person.
Moreover, he was the most protective of his people.
Since he had accepted Zhao Jing's decision to keep Lin Anan, although he wasn't very happy, he considered Lin Anan as part of his family.
When Zhao Jing heard this, he felt a little amused and warm.
"You're right, Uncle," he said respectfully.”
"I went to the town yesterday to buy some cloth, but Anan has been busy these two days and hasn't finished making new clothes.”
"But it won't take more than a few days."
"Well, you should also change your clothes. When you go back to the Academy, you won't be looked down upon.”
Zhao Jing agreed.
Zhao Youtian took a sip of tea and stopped talking about clothes.
Instead, he continued to talk about Zhao Jing's return to the Academy.
"You have to go back to the Academy to study next month.”
"Find some time in the next few days and I'll take you to the Academy to visit your Headmaster in advance.”
"You haven't been to class for a year. You have to apologize to the Headmaster properly and explain it clearly.”
"I'll listen to you, Uncle." Zhao Jing said seriously.”
"When you come, please tell me in advance what you want to bring.”
"I'll go to town to buy everything these few days.”
Zhao Youtian was very satisfied with his serious attitude.
"Usually, we only buy some bacon and eggs and some cerealose.”
"I still have to prepare a gift of one tael of silver. When the time comes, I'll give it to the Headmaster.”
"Forget it, you don't have to worry about these things. I'll get someone to take care of them for you.”
"Thank you, Uncle." Zhao Jing smiled.”
"As for the silver, I will bring it over to uncle later.”
Zhao Youtian waved his hand." The clan is paying for you. You don't have to worry about money."”
"After you go back to the Academy, you must study hard so that you can live up to our expectations of you.”
