After saying that, Lin Anan quickly buried herself under the blanket again.
She felt that she was too rash!
It was one thing for her to call her husband to sleep, but now she actually said that she wanted to sleep with her husband.
She was too ashamed to face anyone!
Zhao Jing watched as the little girl crawled back into the blanket, leaving only a few strands of hair outside the pillow.
That shy look made him want to laugh.
"We'll talk about the wedding night later.”
" I…" Lin Anan's heart skipped a beat. She was anxious.
"Don't be afraid. I won't chase you back even if you don't want to do it," Zhao Jing comforted her.”
"Go to sleep."
Zhao Jing's words made Lin Anan feel a little relieved.
"I'm going out. Lock the door.”
Creak.
The door was closed.
Zhao Jing's voice came from outside.
Lin Anan, lock the door."
Lin Anan then got up from her bed and locked the door.
Then, she heard the footsteps outside getting further and further away.
When he arrived at the original owner's parents 'room, Zhao Jing regretted it the moment he opened the door.
It was filled with dust and a faint musty smell.
Although it wasn't considered dirty, the environment was still unbearable.
Fortunately, the moonlight tonight was bright enough to see clearly without lighting up.
Zhao Jing had no choice but to leave the door open.
She took an old piece of clothing and swept the bed randomly, then spread her thick clothes on top of it.
Curled up, he made do with it and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, after the chickens in the village crowed.
Zhao Jing heard footsteps in his daze.
He opened his eyes abruptly.
The little girl holding the wooden basin seemed to be shocked by him.
Seeing that Zhao Jing had woken up, a smile quickly appeared on her face. She looked quite happy.
Zhao Jing felt inexplicably better when he saw this.
"Hu-husband, you're awake?"
Zhao Jing sat up on the bed and yawned.
"Morning, what time is it?"
"Probably at the end of the day," Lin Anan replied.”
It was only four o'clock and the sky was still dark outside.
However, since he was awake, Zhao Jing did not plan to sleep anymore.
Lin Anan stretched and helped him wash up.
Zhao Jing felt that these few taels of silver were not bad.
Not only were his hands and feet nimble, but he was also meticulous.
"Have you made breakfast?"
"There's porridge in the pot, do you want to eat it now?”
Zhao Jing nodded and went to the kitchen to have some porridge.
Today, he was going to take the manuscript he had written yesterday to the library in the city to take a look.
"Husband, after you finish drinking, leave the bowl for me to wash.”
Zhao Jing was still thinking about something.
He heard the child blabbering on and on, and he agreed in a daze.
Seeing that he had agreed, Lin Anan walked out briskly.
Yesterday, she had married with a nervous heart. Although she had cried, she had received an unexpected result.
Moreover, her husband was so gentle to him. The blanket she had covered herself with last night was thick and soft.
Lin Anan couldn't be happier!
She clenched her small fists and thought, I must work hard to earn money and return my husband's money as soon as possible!
Zhao Jing suddenly frowned.
He suddenly remembered what the little girl had said just now.
She wanted to leave the dishes for her to wash when she came back? Where was this little girl going?
She had just married here and was unfamiliar with the place.
Zhao Jing walked out of the room curiously and saw Lin Anan pulling out a big basket from somewhere. There was a chopper and a water bag in the basket.
"Where are we going?"
Hearing Zhao Jing's voice, Lin Anan stopped in her tracks and looked up at the man not far away with a light smile on her face.
"It's still early. I'll go up the mountain to chop wood and carry it to the city to sell later.”
Zhao Jing recalled how this young lady had shamelessly boasted about returning the money as soon as possible yesterday. He then looked at the small figure of the person in front of him and suddenly laughed.
A bundle of firewood, normally carried to the market by a farmer, could only be sold for ten copper coins at most.
Sometimes, he would not even get ten copper coins if he met someone stingy.
Lin Anan didn't know why her husband suddenly laughed.
However, she was happy that her husband was in a good mood.
"Husband, then I'll go up the mountain as soon as possible.”
Seeing that Lin Anan was about to leave, Zhao Jing grabbed her neck.
"Oh, does husband have any other instructions?”
"I'm going out to town today," Zhao Jing said with a smile.”
"Stay at home and watch.”
"Let's talk about cutting wood tomorrow.”
Hearing Zhao Jing's order, Lin Anan nodded and said,""Okay."
"Then I'll dry the blanket first."
"Ah, husband is going to town. I have to prepare some dry food for husband.”
Lin Anan was a little anxious when she saw the sky.
"It's a little late. I have to hurry.”
" It's alright," Zhao Jing comforted her." I don't need dry rations. I'll bring some silver, and I'll be back soon."”
It would take about two hours to walk from the village to the town.
Moreover, if Zhao Jing went out at this time, he could catch up with the ox cart in the village.
The time would be shortened by a lot.
Zhao Jing went to the study room to tidy up the draft he had written yesterday. He put it in his pocket and was about to leave.
The little girl ran over and handed him a basket.
There was an old umbrella and a water bag in the basket.
The small cloth bag that had appeared yesterday was in her hands again.
"Husband, take the copper coins first. If you are hungry, buy some food in town. Don't starve yourself.”
Lin Anan had been to town a few times, and it was her mother who had taken her out to buy the vegetables she grew at home.
However, she had only stayed in a designated place and was not familiar with other places.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhao Jing did not refuse. He took the small cloth bag and stuffed it into his lapel.
"Alright, I'll bring them out. Wait for me at home.”
Lin Anan nodded and walked him to the gate.
The sky was still dark, but he could hear faint human voices coming from not far away.
Zhao Jing walked forward for a while. When he turned around, he could still see the little figure at the door of his house.
Zhao Jing smiled and waved his hand.
The little figure also raised her hand and waved at Zhao Jing.
Along the way, many villagers of Zhao Family Village also brought their own vegetables, fruits, or crafts to the city to sell.
There were many people standing under the big banyan tree at the village entrance. Everyone was waiting for the ox cart to set off.
When they saw Zhao Jing, they greeted him warmly.
"Xiao Jing, it's only the second day of our wedding. Why are you out?”
Zhao Jing was a little embarrassed. After greeting everyone, he smiled and explained,"I'll go to the bookstore in town to take a look.”
"Just tell me what books you want to buy," said an uncle.”
"When the uncles come back from the city, they can just bring it back.”
"Yeah, you're just a newlywed. There's no need for you to make this trip and leave the bride alone at home.”
"Back then, when my wife and I just got married, if it wasn't for the fact that I had to return home in three days, I wouldn't even want to go out!”
As they spoke, many of the villagers 'words carried a hint of adult color.
Faced with everyone's teasing, Zhao Jing couldn't help but want to cover his face when he thought of the little kid at home.
