Cheng Chun was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "My family calls me Ah Chun. If the Fifth Master doesn't like it..."
"Ah Chun!" Su Xubai looked at Cheng Chun and murmured, "The spring color on the cardamom tips is light. Newly tried gauze clothes, sleeves are blowing softly in the east breeze, it's a good name!"
Chengchun didn't understand what it meant, but his eyes lit up.
She was originally in the age of a young girl, and she preferred those scholars who seemed to be gentle and elegant to those with muddy legs. However, when she worked in a drug store, she saw many poor scholars who were in rags but still kept talking about words and pretending to be noble. They only read books by saints and sages.
, but cannot see the poverty of his wife and daughter next to him.
After going back and forth, I felt that those people were not very lively, and I didn't really like those people who looked like gentle and scholarly people.
But today, Su Xubai was standing in the sun with bright eyes and high spirits. Surprisingly, he felt that he was cheerful and more like the handsome scholar mentioned in the play.
When Su Xubai saw Cheng Chun staring at him, he felt a little strange: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Cheng Chun was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head: "No, no, I just never thought that my name could sound so nice!"
Su Xubai smiled: "As the name suggests, it sounds good and looks good!"
Chengchun's face immediately turned redder. She lowered her head, not daring to look at his face anymore, just staring at her toes.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Let's go see your return ceremony. It's time for us to set off!" Su Xubai said, holding Cheng Chun's hand and walking straight forward.
Chengchun stared at her hand that was being held, and felt that her palms were getting hot. Sure enough, after a while, her palms became sweaty. She wanted to take her hand out, but he held it tightly.
.
The two of them just walked to the door of the yard. The road back to the door was crowded with carriages. They looked at all the valuable things. Chengchun was a little nervous: "My parents are from the country. I'm afraid they won't receive such a precious gift."
Will collect..."
"The rice that the royal family and nobles eat is all cultivated by farmers like your parents. There is nothing they can't bear!" Su Xubai said with a smile, "Don't be burdened with anything. This is what I, as a son-in-law, should do!
"
Chengchun only felt that his eyes were moist.
She knew that she was a concubine. Although she was a good concubine, she was just a concubine after being a concubine. She was not much different from a slave, so she was ready to keep her head down and earn a living. She thought that she would just eat less and do more.
Live, you can always survive.
She never expected to come back, after all, she was just a concubine, but Su Xubai, who had only met once, prepared things so well, how could she not be moved!
After a long time, Chengchun said with difficulty: "Thank you, Fifth Master!"
Su Xubai nodded and helped Cheng Chun get into the carriage.
The carriage moved forward slowly, and the two people sat side by side. Su Xubai turned around to look at her and saw that she was stiff. After thinking for a long time, he finally said: "A Chun, are you afraid of me?"
Chengchun was stunned for a moment and said nothing.
"That day, I broke into the drug store... I knew it would destroy you, but I still did such a selfish thing for my own life. I am so ashamed. I will do my best to make it up to you, but I still hope,
Don't ask for things that don't belong to you. Although this courtyard is not big, it is also a place where you can settle down and live in the future!" Su Xubai's voice was not loud, but Cheng Chun who was sitting aside also heard it.
Cheng Chun knew that Su Xubai took her as his concubine because of the stupid things he did that day. He ruined her reputation and married her to save her life, but that was all. What he said was also
I just warned her not to think about other things.
What's rare is that Cheng Chun doesn't feel sad. She originally wanted to leave with a piece of white silk, but it was the betrothal gift he sent to her door that saved her life. He harmed her reputation, but he also saved her life. The grudges are clear.
, no one owes anyone anything: "I understand!"
Su Xubai raised his eyes and glanced at Cheng Chun. Seeing that she still had a low eyebrow and a submissive look, he sighed: "I will give you the dignity of a wife, but you have to stand up for yourself. In this other courtyard,
You are the master, if you cannot stand firm and the slave bullies the master, I will not be able to protect you!"
Chengchun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that what he did today was actually to establish his prestige. His favor was the basis for Chengchun to gain a foothold in the small courtyard. She nodded solemnly: "I understand.
Fifth Master!"
Seeing Cheng Chun's serious look, Su Xubai suddenly didn't know what to say and just nodded.
The carriage drove slowly and arrived at Zhuangzi just before noon.
Su Xubai got out of the car first, and then helped Cheng Chun get out of the carriage.
Guo'er Niang had been waiting at the door early in the morning. As soon as she saw the carriage stop, she rubbed her hands and watched eagerly. After seeing Cheng Chun get off the car, she trotted forward and wanted to reach out to hold Cheng Chun's hand.
, but he was afraid that his hands would stain the brocade and satin on her body, so he could only shout: "Ah Chun!"
As soon as Chengchun saw Guo'er Niang, her eyes immediately turned red. She took Guo'er Niang's hand and said, "Ah Niang!"
Guo'er Niang stretched out her hand to touch Chengchun's face, her eyes were red with distress: "How have you been these days?"
Chengchun nodded: "Okay, everything is fine. Where is A Niang? How are A Niang and Daddy? What about Guo'er? Where did Guo'er go?"
"Everything is fine, everything is fine. Guo'er went to buy wine. I know you are coming back today, so go buy some wine and eat it back!" Guo'er's mother said and saw Su Xubai walking forward.
This was the first time Guo'er Niang saw Su Xubai. She originally thought that the men who came to welcome Su Xubai were already very noble, but she didn't expect that the man in front of her, her son-in-law, was so noble.
I didn't even know what to say.
"Mother-in-law, it's sunny outside, why don't you go in and talk?" Su Xubai saw more and more villagers coming around, so he stepped forward and said softly.
Only then did Guo'er Niang see the people around her rushing over, and she quickly nodded: "Hey, hey, hurry in, hurry in!"
Guo'er Niang had spent her whole life digging for food in the fields. She had never seen such a person who was like an immortal, and she was called mother-in-law by such a person. For a moment, she felt extremely top-heavy and didn't know what to call Su Xubai.
Logically speaking, Guo'er's mother should follow Chengchun and call her "Fifth Master", but Hongdou smiled and said, "Why does the old lady just go on her own but don't like her own uncle?"
Hongdou's joke also brought Guo'er's mother back to her senses, and she quickly said: "How could it be possible? Brother-in-law, hurry in and the child's father will be back after a while!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Guo'er rushed over. He saw his sister in red clothes from a distance, and ran into Chengchun's arms: "Sister, you are back, Aniang said
You come back today, I didn’t even sleep last night!”
