The woman has a bright appearance, light eyes, and a tone that is neither serious nor serious, but extremely convinced.
Mrs. Ren Li didn't know how she could be so sure. If Ren Hui was attracted by the prefect, her family would definitely let him marry the prefect's daughter.
"Just to give you a heads up."
"I'm leaving at noon the day after tomorrow, so you can come over then."
Su Yan nodded, hesitated, glanced into the room, and said softly: "Is there any way for me to go to Fucheng?"
She wanted to send Qin An to Fucheng, and at least arrange for him well before coming back, so that she would feel relieved.
Ren Li glanced at her, thought for a moment, and did not refuse, "I'll go home and ask my father-in-law, and I'll get back to you tomorrow."
Su Yan, who has always disliked owing favors, troubled others for the first time in order to send Qin An off, "It's troublesome."
"No trouble, please." Ren Li said for a while and then went home.
First, I told Ren Hui about this matter, "Do you think you can help me with this matter?"
Ren Hui put away the books and said, "Why are you asking me? Aren't you and dad in charge of this house?"
Ren Li glared at him and said, "I'll discuss it with you. Forget it, I'll go to my father-in-law's place and you go with me."
"Wait until I finish cleaning up." Ren Hui saw that she didn't help, and then said, "Come here and help clean up."
"I just applied Dankou." Ren Li showed her fingers to him.
"Let you do less of these."
"hurry up."
Ren Hui quickly put down the book in his hand and said, "Let's go, I will remind you all day long."
living room
Mr. Ren was drinking tea when he saw two people coming over and asked, "Have the things been delivered to Qin's house?"
"Sent it, accepted it, she wants us to take her to Fucheng."
Ren Li sat next to him and asked again: "Can we help?"
Master Ren thought for a while and said, "Help, you can go there that day and say she is your maid."
The maid is a widow, so the officers and soldiers won't care. She just has to go to the county town to apply for a fake deed of sale.
This is not difficult.
"Okay." Ren Li nodded.
At this time, Ren Hui said: "I asked you to go with me, but you didn't go, and now you agree to go."
"I have nothing to say to you." Mrs. Ren Li is not afraid of her father-in-law saying anything about her. The Ren family treats her as their daughter-in-law quite well.
In addition, Ren Hui liked to drink flower wine in the past two years, so her thoughts about him became somewhat less intense.
Master Ren glanced at the two of them, and finally looked at Ren Hui and said: "I won't study these days, so I will go out with her to buy some things."
He knew well that his son could barely study, was not good at business, and was not as good as his daughter-in-law.
My daughter-in-law's family business is not as good as that of her family, but she does her best for the family.
Ren Hui couldn't afford to find someone with a better family background than hers.
Ren Hui said "Yes" and said, "I'll accompany her tomorrow."
Ren Li raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but said firmly: "No need."
"Dad said it." Ren Hui also wanted to ease the relationship with his wife.
"Father said you don't have to go, but you don't want to go anyway."
"When did I say I didn't want to go?"
"Dad, I'm going back to my room."
Ren Hui looked at Master Ren and said helplessly: "Dad, look at her, her temper is getting worse and worse."
"It's not you, you bastard." Master Ren glared at him.
He added: "Build a good relationship with Qin An."
"If you can help me more, put away your virtues."
"If you are like Qin An, I will leave the family to you with peace of mind."
In the past, Ren Hui might have objected, but now he has nothing to say. Qin An is very talented and knowledgeable.
"I know."
…
After receiving Ren Li's response, Su Yan was happy and did not tell Qin An.
Ren Li said that she would wait for them to leave first before they left in the carriage, fearing that Su Yan would delay their trip.
In the past few days, Qin An had been walking into the mountains every day, either carrying firewood or water. The firewood shed at home was finally full.
After preparing these, I installed an extra door at home and pasted some sharp tiles on the courtyard wall.
The night before leaving, Su Yan roasted the tea picked in the mountains.
The two of them were awake for a while. Su Yan turned the tea leaves with her hands and said, "After frying, you can take some away. The buds are tender and fragrant when brewed."
"If there is a suitable yard in Fucheng, you can buy it. My family has enough money now."
"If you don't have time to look for it, just spend your money to stay in an inn. If you stay in a good hotel, you'll be more relaxed."
After mumbling for a while, she didn't hear the man respond to her. She raised her head and looked at him, his handsome face and his eyes falling on her scorchingly.
Obviously he couldn't bear to leave her.
Naturally, she felt reluctant to part with him, but she had no choice but to accompany him to Fucheng.
Just when he was about to say something, he said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, I can't let you go."
"You Xiu Mu can come back, and I can come to the city gate to find you if I have nothing to do." Su Yan said, holding back her reluctance.
Qin An said "Yes" and told her about the family affairs, "There is enough firewood for a month. The left one is still a little wet. Take it out to dry in the sun when there is sunshine."
"The pine hair is dry, so open one bag after another, otherwise mice will go in and make nests."
"I put the ground vegetables in a rice vat, which is enough for you to eat. You are not allowed to go up the mountain without me."
"Every few days, someone will bring eggs and pork. Eggs are two cents a pound, and pork is thigh meat, which is thirteen cents a pound."
"When the time comes, he will bring it over and weigh it."
"I bought a lot of menstrual strips and kept them under the cabinet. If they don't feel comfortable, I won't wash them."
"There is someone in charge of the group, so you can eat first."
"I'll buy clothes every other day."
He is not a talkative person, but he is afraid that he will not explain everything at home clearly.
"good."
Su Yan actually didn't want to cry, but her eyes felt inexplicably sour, so she turned her back and wiped the corners of her eyes.
"There are so many people at home, so don't worry about me."
Qin An stood up, walked over and bent down to look at her, "Daughter-in-law, don't cry."
"At the latest this year, next year I will take you with me."
He will definitely study hard and let his wife be his wife in the Qin family tree.
"Okay." Su Yan stir-fried the tea leaves and put them in the kitchen dustpan to cool.
The couple stayed cozy until midnight...
…
On the second day, heavy rain began at noon, pitter-patter on the rubble.
Ren's doorstep
Qin An held an umbrella and hugged Su Yan, "We will go back when the rain lightens up."
Su Yan was worried that it wouldn't be good for them to leave in this rainy season, "You should wait until you get back before leaving."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The Ren family's coachman said: "If you wait any longer, you will be in trouble at night."
"It's okay to rain this time. I've encountered it many times. The official road is good, so just walk slowly."
Su Yan couldn't say anything else, and waited for Qin An to get on the carriage, "Be careful on the road."
"good."
Qin An put the umbrella into her hand, got on the carriage and opened the carriage curtain to look at her, but said nothing.
The carriage slowly disappeared from sight. Ren Li held an umbrella and greeted Su Yan, "Go in and sit for a while. We'll leave after a while."
Seeing that she was still looking, he stretched out his hand to pull her, "Uncle Deng has been in our family for decades. If he says it's okay, it's okay."
"Before, I thought that guy in your family always looked cold in everything he did, but now I feel like he can't let you go."
"It's not like my family. They don't even look at it when they leave."
"You can see each other more often in the future." Su Yan comforted her.
Ren Li smiled bitterly and said: "It's better not to see each other often. I'm not afraid of your laughter. We haven't had sex in a few months, otherwise we wouldn't have children."
Once a man's freshness wears off, he becomes less enthusiastic about sex.
Su Yan didn't realize that, well, Qin An had always been very passionate about sex.
As long as she rests, he will torture her vigorously.
He won't be like this when she is tired.
There were no problems between the two of them.
Ren Li looked at her with envy and said, "I envy you sometimes."
Su Yan smiled and said generously: "My husband is very good."
The rainstorm stopped after a quarter of an hour. Master Ren still paid attention to Su Yan and told Mrs. Ren Li: "Be careful on the road."
Then she said to Su Yan: "If you have anything, just tell her, don't be embarrassed."
"sorry to bother you."
Su Yan paused and then said: "I agree with the new shop."
They had discussed with her before opening a shop in Fucheng, but she did not agree to them.
Mainly due to lack of energy.
Now I owe someone a favor and I always have to pay it back.
Master Ren immediately nodded happily, "Okay, we'll talk about it when you come back."
He looked at Su Yan with more and more admiration.
…
This afternoon, there were not many carriages coming in and out of Fucheng. After a while, the officers and soldiers inspected Su Yan's carriage.
Naturally, the Ren family had taken care of things. The officers and soldiers raised the curtains and glanced at a few people, but didn't check them in detail.
When the carriage was in progress, Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and Ren Li said: "Don't be afraid, these officials will do their jobs if they have money."
"You won't check these when you come in in the future, but you can't come in often."
Su Yan nodded, "I come here a few times occasionally."
This way
Inn
Seeing Qin An preparing to go out, Ren Hui quickly stood up and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Send a letter." Qin An wanted to tell Su Yan that she was safe.
Ren Hui didn't ask anything, "I'll go with you. You're not familiar with Fucheng."
"No need." Qin An strode out.
If you trouble Ren Hui, you will cause trouble to your own wife.
Ren Hui still went out with him. After the two of them delivered the letter to the inn, Qin An was looking for a yard to live in. He didn't plan to find a place to live alone.
Looking at the messy yard in front of him, Ren Hui waved his hand, "Do you live in this kind of yard?"
This yard is similar to the yard in the village, except that no one has cleaned it for a long time.
Even so, this yard costs several hundred taels of silver.
If it weren't for his wife's worries, he would definitely not buy this yard.
Qin An didn't look at him and said to the middle-aged man: "How far is it from the market?"
"When I go out, this yard is a bit dirty."
The middle-aged man added: "A few hundred taels of silver is already very cheap in Fucheng."
"Do you want to? If not, just leave. I have something to do later."
"I don't want this one. It's too far away from the academy and too noisy. You can't study in peace."
Ren Hui didn't understand that his family was not poor either, and it was as if he had no money.
"Yes." Qin An said in a low voice.
Ren Hui didn't say anything. After paying the money, Qin An cleaned up the yard and wiped it inside and outside with the cloth parlor.
"How about asking a few people to come over and wipe it?" Ren Hui choked on the dust and stood in the yard.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin An turned to look at him and said in a low voice: "My wife has a hard time making money."
As soon as these words came out, Ren Hui was stunned and didn't say anything for a while. He came from a wealthy family and had never considered money.
Just study with peace of mind.
He suddenly thought about his wife working in the family shop with his father all these years.
He hesitated for a moment and helped to clean it up together.
It was already two hours after he finished his work. As soon as Ren Hui entered the room, he saw his wife sitting and eating melon seeds, "Daughter-in-law."
Ren Li was stunned when she saw him, and looked up and down, "What are you doing?"
"Dirty?"
"Help Qin An clean the house." Ren Hui sat down and drank a cup of tea.
Ren Li laughed and said, "You still help clean the house? I ask you to do something, but you don't want to."
Ren Hui said sarcastically: "I will do it in the future."
Ren Li was a little surprised that he was so easy to talk to, "What's wrong with you today? Did you take the wrong medicine?"
Ren Hui: "..."
He opened his mouth but said nothing.
This way.
As soon as Qin An entered the room, he saw someone lying on the bed and was stunned for a moment, "Daughter-in-law?"
Su Yan waited for half an hour, felt sleepy and went to bed to take a nap. When she entered the door, she heard movement. She sat up and said, "Went to see the yard? Are you ready?"
The man was sure that he was his wife, and his eyes were delighted, "Why are you here?"
"I asked the Ren family for help." Su Yan said with bright eyebrows.
"Have you found the yard? I'll go look at it with you, and I'll go back later."
"Found it." Qin An said in a low voice.
He knelt down to put on her shoes and said, "Would you like to go and see it?"
"Okay, I'll buy you something." Su Yan nodded.
When the two of them were going out, they happened to see Ren Hui and his wife going out. Ren Li asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go buy something."
Su Yan knew that the couple rarely went out on weekdays, so she added, "Let's leave first."
She guessed that the yard Qin An bought was not very good, but when she saw that the yard was not bad, she didn't say anything.
"There is no desk, no table for eating, no pots and pans, and no quilt."
The two of them figured out what they needed, so they bought two large backpacks and went out to buy them.
It started to rain heavily on the way, so the two of them had to squat under the eaves with their backpacks on their backs. The eaves in Fucheng were not very covered, so they could not cover much of the rain.
The tall man stood in front of her, blocking the rain.
Su Yan raised her head slightly and caught his gaze. She put her arms around his waist and motioned for him to stand closer, "Come in, you'll catch a cold later."
"It stopped after a while." Qin An turned his head to look at the sky, then turned to look at her, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
It's great to have a wife.
The man was not good at cleaning the house, so Su Yan asked him to fetch water while she put the things she bought as needed.
After a while, the empty house felt like home.
"Ms. sir, I've put the thick clothes in the big cabinet. If you want, take them next to each other. After washing, put them inside, fold them and put them away again."
"Don't put books in the cabinet, as they can easily get caught by rats."
"I saw some rat droppings just now. I'm afraid there are rats. Go buy some medicine and spread it back."
"It's a bit noisy here. I'll have someone put some paper on the windows tomorrow."
Afraid of missing something, she checked inside and out to make sure nothing was missing, then sat in the yard to take a breath.
He glanced around and vaguely heard the family next door having dinner.
Voices came through the walls.
"eat more."
"You can eat it yourself and leave me alone."
"You think I care about you?"
She looked at Qin An and said, "I'll be here after a while."
"What did you promise to the Ren family?" Qin An only cared about what she promised to do for the Ren family.
"Nothing, it's just business."
Su Yan didn't want him to worry about this, so she added: "I'm so tired, give me a squeeze on my shoulders."
