Chapter 32: Listen to you

By some strange coincidence, Pei Xuan sat down.

After eating, he came back to his senses, full of regret, which made him look a little cute.

Although the dishes just now didn't taste very good, he somehow managed to eat more than half of them.

It seems that Song Shu didn't eat much.

"Sorry, I seem to have robbed you."

Listening to his guilty tone, Song Shu smiled.

"I'm already full, why are you apologizing? You've eaten a lot, and I'm happy too."

Her eyes were bent, making Pei Xuan sink a little unconsciously.

Is satisfaction so simple for her?

"By the way, I haven't cleared away the dishes in the kitchen yet."

As she said this, Song Shu was about to clean up, but was held back by Pei Xuan.

Perhaps he had never been like this before. The wet, sticky and greasy feeling on his palm made Song Shu feel a little uncomfortable, but she did not shake it off.

Song Shu lowered her head and looked at Pei Xuan's hands.

His joints are clear and his skin is fair. He doesn't look like a girl's hands. The calluses on his palms are a bit abrasive, which should be traces of his martial arts practice.

The fingertips were obviously a little cold, but the place he held them felt inexplicably hot.

So much so that Song Shu felt like she was in a charcoal basin.

"Sorry, I was abrupt."

Pei Xuan withdrew his hand, and the coolness in his palm made him calm down: "The kitchen lady has already cleaned up, and you are tired. Just rest now. The new house will be ready today, so you don't have to worry anymore."

Song Shu's heart was beating wildly. She didn't even listen to what Pei Xuan said. She only heard a sentence asking her to rest.

She turned around, her back to Pei Xuan, and her hands unconsciously covered her chest.

"I happen to be a little tired, so you can take care of this while I rest."

"okay."

The tone was still cold, but the tone was inexplicably trembling, and the crisp smell in the air kept stimulating Song Shu.

Damn it! Is there something wrong with my heart? Otherwise, why is it still beating now?

Ah! Stop jumping! That man should leave, right?

Song Shu kept cursing in her heart. She turned sideways and glanced out of the corner of her eye. The place behind her was already empty. Pei Xuan didn't know when she left.

She breathed a sigh of relief and held her chest.

"It's terrible. Pei Xuan is a monster. You have to keep your distance! Otherwise, you will definitely become the next King Zhou!"

Song Shu knew her own determination very well.

Although she used to boast that she was not beautiful at all, it was because she was busy with work and had no time to think about it.

But now, I have nothing to do, I am either thinking or thinking randomly all day long, and Pei Xuan is walking around in front of me, how can I control it!

Ruined!

Song Shu thought, resigned to her fate and lay on the bed, covering her face with the quilt.

Even after such a long time, her cheeks were still burning.

Her heart was in a mess, and at some point, Song Shu fell asleep. But Pei Xuan didn't let her go, and even teased her in her dream.

"Shu Niang doesn't like my husband anymore?"

"Could it be that Shu Niang thinks that my face is not good and wants to be replaced by someone else? Shu Niang, please don't abandon me, okay? I'll be with you."

"Shuniang, how about we have a child? It just makes it possible for me to have a grandson."

When the new house was built, Yan asked someone to buy firecrackers.

When the last tile fell to the top, firecrackers also crackled for a long time, and the whole village came to watch the excitement.

Song Shu looked at the new house with satisfaction.

Although it's not as good as the one I lived in before, it's still pretty good in this village, at least better than before.

The yard is also big enough, so it won't affect her drying of herbs, which will give her more space for operations in the future.

Mrs. Yan seemed to be overjoyed and held Song Shu's hand tightly.

"Shu Niang, you earned all this. If it weren't for you, how could the family have changed like this?"

Song Shu smiled: "Mom, you are joking. This is what you deserve. Life will only be better in the future."

What else could Mrs. Yan say at this moment? Tears were rolling in her eyes, and her excitement was speechless.

Song Shu subconsciously glanced at Pei Xuan next to her.

Although he still looked cold, it could be seen from his eyes that he was very happy, but he was not good at expressing it.

This man is a little arrogant, right? Song Shu thought.

When she met Pei Xuan's eyes, their eyes met. The temperature of that day seemed to be coming again, and Song Shu's face instantly turned red.

She hurriedly turned away and talked to the aunt next to her.

Seeing her like this, the corners of Pei Xuan's lips rose briefly.

"Since Shu Niang came into the house, good things have always happened in our family. You two are good children. Don't forget in the future. This is all given by Shu Niang."

Pei Xuan nodded and glanced at Song Shu from the corner of his eye.

Yanqing was so happy that she ran around and said, "Grandma, will I live here from now on? Really?"

Yan smiled and said: "Of course, do you remember who gave it to me?"

Yanqing immediately stood in front of Song Shu, grinning: "I know, it was aunt who built us a new house and prepared delicious food for us! Auntie is the best!"

Song Shu: "..."

There's no need to praise her so much. Are you embarrassed if you don't see her?

"Okay, it's good for Yanqing to know."

Yan looked at the two people and knew that they still had something to say, so she took Yanqing to the study next door.

The surroundings became quiet, and Song Shu could almost hear her own heartbeat.

"Ms. sir, although this house is a bit small, it will be enough for my mother and me. When we have money in the future, how about we change to a bigger house?"

Pei Xuan nodded and said in a low, hoarse voice: "Okay, I will listen to you."

After saying that, Song Shu felt that the atmosphere became strange again.

Why can't this man say two more words? He insists on saying it himself, but it will be embarrassing.

But then I thought about it, Pei Xuan was like this, so why should I compete with him?

That's all, let's do it ourselves first.

"The house is also ready. If you don't have to go out tomorrow, come with me to the back mountain. We've finished all the wild vegetables at home. It's going to snow, so it's always good to be more prepared."

"Well, besides wild vegetables, do you need anything else?" Pei Xuan asked.

Song Shu thought for a while and shook her head: "Let's see and then talk about it. At this time, there are not many wild vegetables in the mountains, so we can only try our luck. If we can encounter game, it might as well be brought back."

After all, everything is sleeping in winter, and Song Shu doesn't have much confidence that there are still wild vegetables in the mountains.

But she can make use of the yard of her new house.

Planting some vegetables will save you from having to go out and buy everything. That way, you can do something by yourself.

They didn't know how long they were silent, but Song Shu suddenly thought of clothes.

She looked at Pei Xuan, blinked, and waited for a long time before speaking.

"You, wait for me, I'll be right back!"

Pei Xuan's hurried back looked like he was fleeing for safety. Pei Xuan's Adam's apple rolled and her fingers tightened unnaturally.
