Chapter 6 The Man of Dreams
The heavy iron door was closed hard by Su Manshang, and the broom at her feet was kicked over by her.
There was quite a bit of movement.
Su Yuguo immediately came out of the bedroom with a smile on his face: "Mansheng is back."
Li Hui also followed out, with a sneer on her face, as if she was not the one who said those words just now.
The suffocating feeling of this place full of calculations made Su Mansheng feel uncomfortable all over, and she said coldly "Yeah".
Su Yuguo saw that she looked unhappy and asked, "What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
Li Hui tried hypocritically: "Did you quarrel with Xiao Zhou?"
Su Mansheng frowned slightly, then his eyes turned red: "No." That's what he said, but the last word was long and obviously filled with emotion.
With this look, Li Hui, a smart person, could tell it was sophistry at a glance. She quickly pulled Su Mansheng to the sofa and sat down: "It's normal for young people to be noisy. What's going on?"
Su Yuguo stood aside and asked, "Yeah, wasn't it fine during the day?"
Su Mansheng lowered his head and bit his lip. After being pressed by them, he finally said helplessly: "I went to ask him about the betrothal gift in the afternoon. He said that he paid a down payment for a house in order to get married, and he only had a hundred thousand yuan in hand.
, I still made it up…”
Li Hui and Su Yuguo looked at each other with disappointment and dissatisfaction in their eyes.
Su Mansheng sniffed and said seriously: "I think auntie is right. How can I get married if I don't have money? My dad also saved me 120,000 yuan. I don't want to suffer this loss, so I will provide him with an offer."
It’s time to break up.”
Li Hui was surprised: "He agreed?"
Su Mansheng's eyes were red and he didn't speak.
Su Yuguo was more anxious than Li Hui. He really liked Zhou Yan, and he didn't care about the fifty thousand yuan as much as Li Hui: "Oh, you are serious. Didn't I tell you not to talk about it before? You two children, everything is worth it."
I don’t understand, what are you talking about? Just fall in love..."
Su Mansheng's play only ended here. She stood up and said, "I'm tired. I'm going to bed first."
The more Zhou Yanshi readily cooperated with her, the more she felt regretful. Now that "breaking up" was mentioned, Li Hui was obviously panicked. It was not certain who would compromise in the end.
She knew that Li Hui didn't care whether she married well or not, he just wanted to get her out as soon as possible.
Of course, it would be best to make some money easily.
Su Mansheng couldn't sleep at all. She tossed and turned, and finally took out the marriage certificate hidden under the bed and looked at it.
One day later, when she looked at the group photo on the marriage certificate, she still felt dazed.
Apart from anything else, just looking at the photos, the two of them seem to match each other quite well.
She looked through Zhou Yanshi's WeChat Moments, but there was no content at all. She had no way to learn more about him.
She was upset because she was not a calculating person to begin with, but now she was forced to play Tai Chi with Li Hui.
Although Su Yuguo said that the dowry would belong to their family after marriage, she was still worried that if the money went into Su Yuguo's pocket, would Li Hui really be willing to spit it out again?
I thought about a bunch of bad things and fell asleep holding my phone.
In a daze, I heard the video request sound on WeChat.
Su Mansheng woke up with a start and looked at his phone. It was Zhou Yanshi!
She thought Zhou Yanshi was suffering from abdominal pain, and she didn't even have time to tidy up her appearance, so she quickly clicked to answer: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"
Zhou Yanshi frowned: "Didn't you call here first?"
"Ah? Me?" Su Mansheng realized that he probably fell asleep just now and accidentally touched the phone.
She was a little embarrassed, "I accidentally touched you. Are you okay?"
Zhou Yanshi looked at her in a panic with her messy hair and couldn't help but smile: "It's okay. Do you like to sleep with your marriage certificate in your arms?"
Only then did Su Mansheng realize that the marriage certificate was still in the camera. She pressed it under her pillow: "I'm still a little uncomfortable, let's take a look."
Zhou Yanshi slept all afternoon, and now he was full of energy and interested in chatting: "If you have no place to hide, you can put it here with me."
Su Mansheng was also afraid that her marriage certificate would be revealed and her plan would be ruined. She nodded: "Okay."
Zhou Yanshi: "Are you free tomorrow?"
Su Mansheng: "Huh?"
Zhou Yanshi: "Go and look at the house and invite the designer out. You can see how you want to decorate it."
Su Mansheng was surprised: "Just pretend to be according to your family's preferences."
Zhou Yanshi: "How about that? This is the house where we will live in the future. I will pick you up at ten o'clock tomorrow."
The irritability in Su Mansheng's heart disappeared.
Zhou Yanshi is so serious about marriage. Perhaps the new stage of her life is worth looking forward to.
The "Qinghui Time" house that Zhou Yanshi bought was fully decorated and delivered, but he felt that the style was too exaggerated. European-style reliefs were added to a house of more than 100 square meters. It looked depressing. He will live here in the future.
, so I plan to destroy it and reinstall it.
Su Mansheng walked around a few houses: "This is pretty good, don't waste that money."
She could tell from Zhou Yanshi's visit to the supermarket yesterday that this man had no idea about money. At best, he was generous, but at worst, he was extravagant. He also had a mortgage, so he had to save what he could.
Zhou Yanshi frowned in displeasure: "This is too ugly, I can't live in it anyway."
He said that the cost of the house would be fully paid by the Zhou family. Su Mansheng couldn't stick to his point of view, but he still felt sorry for him about the money.
She put her hand on the wardrobe in the master bedroom and moved it casually, trying to persuade: "It will cost a lot of money to decorate, so let's just live there until we have money later...ah!"
Before she finished speaking, she screamed.
The wardrobe was custom-made, but the corners were not polished properly, and a thin wooden thorn stuck into her flesh!
Zhou Yanshi frowned and turned around to see her holding the index finger of her right hand, blood was coming from the fingertip!
Without saying anything, he took her hand and examined it carefully.
A slender wound of about one centimeter, with a gray wooden thorn inside!
After the pain of that moment passed, Su Mansheng realized that he had made too much fuss.
Seeing Zhou Yanshi's nervous look, she felt a little embarrassed and wanted to retract her hand: "It's okay."
Zhou Yanshi took out a handkerchief from his bag with a sullen face and carefully wiped away the blood: "Don't move!"
His nervousness and gentle movements made Su Mansheng's heart suddenly start beating.
Her parents divorced when she was ten years old, and she married Su Yuguo, who didn't know how to take care of children.
She spent her adolescence alone and received very little sincere care from the opposite sex.
This is the first time for me to be so close to the opposite sex.
Now her fingertips were trembling slightly, and she let Zhou Yanshi squeeze them gently.
"I have to squeeze out the thorns inside, please bear with it." Zhou Yanshi looked solemn.
"Yeah." Su Mansheng looked at his side face and responded obediently.
In order to prevent her from moving around in pain, Zhou Yanshi tucked her arm under his armpit, then faced the light and carefully pressed near the wound.
He pressed it and took a look at Su Mansheng's expression.
This kind of operation was really painful. Su Mansheng bit the inside of his lip and frowned tightly.
After pressing it a few times, the wooden thorn moved out a little, but it still couldn't be pulled out.
Zhou Yanshi saw that sweat was already forming on her forehead, and said in a slow voice: "If it really hurts, just hold on to me."
Su Mansheng was stunned for a moment, and finally stretched out his left hand to grab the hem of his clothes.
She wanted to make the two of them familiar with each other quickly through such interaction and eliminate the feeling of strangeness.
There was a slight smile on her face.
Zhou Yanshi clearly didn't like being touched by others, but he could still make such a request. It seemed that Grandma Zhou was right. He looked not good at words, but his heart was warm.
"What's the use of grabbing here?" Zhou Yanshi seemed dissatisfied, scolded, took her hand and put it on his arm: "Grab here, if it hurts, pinch me, and I will know to let go."
Su Mansheng grabbed his arm and could feel the solid muscles under the thin clothing, and his heart beat even harder.
Is this because God saw that she had been too lonely these years and assigned her such a gentle, careful and strong man of her dreams?
When the wooden thorn was pulled out, Zhou Yanshi let go of his hand and saw Su Mansheng looking at him intently.
"What, it hurts so much?"
Su Mansheng came to his senses and put away his panicked eyes: "Thank you."
Zhou Yanshi wrapped a handkerchief around her bleeding finger: "Let's go."
"You haven't finished reading yet?" Su Mansheng was forced to follow his footsteps.
