In the dead of night, when everything was silent, a sneaky figure moved out of the west wing of the county government office. Under the weak moonlight, one could vaguely see a slim figure and small white hands that were like gelatin.
The black scarf covering her face revealed only a pair of black and white eyes. She peeked around to make sure there was no one around, then quietly left the yard.
"Shen Chongming, it's not that I won't go back to the capital with you, but I have more important things to do. Don't worry, I will definitely go to the capital to help you explain to your wife when I have the chance." Zhou Yu'an pinched his ears: "Forget it. No, it’s better not to go to the capital to explain, the more you explain this kind of thing, the worse it will be.”
After saying that, he immediately turned around, jumped up the wall, and slipped out through the back door of the county government office.
And a light suddenly lit up in the originally dark and silent backyard.
Holding the sword and lantern, he looked towards the wall. The footprints on the wall were clearly visible.
"Lord, won't you stop me?"
He wanted to stop her, but he could stop her, but he couldn't stop her heart. Instead of forcefully keeping her by his side, he might as well follow her secretly to see what she was going to do after leaving Fuyang County.
Her identity, origin, and her purpose of approaching him and sneaking into the He family have always been doubts in his heart.
Three months later, Shen Chongming and others followed Zhou Yuan to Suizhou.
"If it's as the Lord said, Miss Zhou's destination is also Suizhou." On the city wall, holding a sword, he looked down at Zhou Yu'an who was lining up in the queue: "Would you like me to go down and say hello? At this rate, It's already noon by the time Miss Zhou enters the city."
"Why is she so attractive?" Shen Chongming stared at Zhou Yu'an in the queue, feeling a little unhappy.
Even though she was plainly dressed, even though she had dressed up like a man, even her hair was messed up, and she even half-closed her eyes and dozed off in an imageless way, those people still looked at her involuntarily.
Zhijian did not hear the emotion in Shen Chongming's words. He looked at Zhou Yu'an carefully and gave his evaluation seriously.
"Miss Zhou is naturally beautiful with icy muscles and jade bones. Just standing like that is enough to captivate a country."
"Is she good-looking?" Shen Chongming frowned: "She doesn't seem that good-looking, right? There are many ladies in the capital who are more beautiful than her."
"In terms of appearance alone, Miss Zhou is indeed not the most outstanding, at least not as good as the empress in the palace." Holding the sword, he said: "But that empress is as beautiful as an empty shell, just like the murals painted on the wall. It's dull and monotonous, no matter which angle you look at it. It's the same. Miss Zhou is different, she is alive, smart and interesting. In these three months, every day is both expected and unexpected. "
It was expected that she would treat patients and save people along the way. Unexpectedly, she would scare those patients while rescuing people, especially those who she found annoying but had to save.
Why force yourself? Because the patients she hated and had to save were often rich people.
No one has trouble with money, especially a woman who had her money stolen by a thief as soon as she left Fuyang County and had no money to travel.
Zhou Yu'an didn't know that her silver was stolen by Zhijian, and Shen Chongming would not tell her that it was him who arranged for Zhijian to steal the money.
Downstairs, some people couldn't help but started to come up and strike up a conversation.
"Girl, are you coming to the city too?" The man deliberately approached her, with a malicious smile on his face: "Girl, are you visiting relatives or looking for someone?"
Zhou Yu'an was feeling sleepy. When he opened his eyes, he saw a pimpled face and immediately moved to the side.
"Don't be afraid, girl, I don't have bad intentions." The man reached out and grabbed her little hand: "I'm afraid it's not safe for the girl to go into the city alone."
Before his claws touched Zhou Yu'an's clothes, he was blocked by Shen Chongming who suddenly appeared. He pushed Zhou Yu'an behind him, blocked the wanton gaze with his broad shoulders, and said in a very cold tone: "She is not a people!"
Let alone the tofu, she was blocked by an ordinary-looking man in shabby clothes. The man suddenly lost his temper and asked in a bad tone: "Who are you to her? You can't be her husband-in-law, right?"
"So what?"
"No matter what, I just feel that this little lady is losing money by following you." The man said with ill intentions: "Look at how poor you are, can you afford to support such a beautiful lady like a flower?"
"Whether my husband can support me or not, it has nothing to do with you. As long as I can support my husband, that's fine." Zhou Yu'an poked out half of his face from behind Shen Chongming: "If you are jealous, find someone like me." Is it okay for a lady as beautiful as a flower to take care of you? Oh, look at how embarrassed you are, can't you find her?"
"What kind of decency does a dignified man need a woman to develop?!" The man shook his sleeves and his tone became more and more unkind.
"What is propriety? Are you like this man, molesting other people's wives in public?" Zhou Yu'an said with aggrieved face: "I have no objection to my raising my husband, and I don't have any objection to my husband asking me to raise him." No, it's you, an outsider who can't be beaten, who is so aggressive. Are we eating your rice or spending your money? If you care about it like this, don't you think you have too much to do?"
"As a man, you actually allow your wife to talk about you like this in public?" The man pointed at Shen Chongming: "Have you really lost the face of all men in the world?"
"What does their shame have to do with me?" Shen Chongming's face darkened, "There are a few men in the world who can be raised by their wives as willingly as I am, and my wife is as beautiful as a flower, and she is as beautiful as a country. What’s even more annoying is that she can still afford to support me, unlike this man, no one is willing to find someone to support me.”
The man was so angry that he stamped his feet and shouted: "You are a son-in-law, which is something that all men in the world are ashamed of."
Zhou Yu'an pursed his lips and said in a small voice, but loud enough for people around him to hear clearly: "How do you know what everyone in the world is thinking? Could it be that they told you one by one? Oh, I understand, you hate it so much The word "brother-in-law" is because you wanted to be a "brother-in-law" but failed. It's a pity. If you try hard next time, you might meet a blind man? Bah, bah, even a blind girl can't look down on you. After all, people are just blind but not blind."
The man was so angry that he almost had a heart attack, but Zhou Yu'an added: "Poor, my husband is not destined to be a son-in-law. I was married back by his matchmakers."
"Since he married you, why don't you raise him instead of him?" The man said unwillingly, "It's not because he is useless."
"The difference between these words, I think this brother is very comparable." As a voice intervened, the situation in front of him was instantly reversed: "It is easier for a husband to raise a wife than for a wife to raise a husband. Only by completely trusting his wife and having Only men who have the ability to control the overall situation dare to put the life and death of themselves and the entire family in the hands of their wives. Of course, there are also lazy men, but look at this brother and his wife, do they look like that?"
Unlike others, at least they didn't see any look of care on Zhou Yu'an's face. Although her husband was average in appearance, his aura was different from others. Such a man did not need a woman to support him.
To put it bluntly, this is not a wife supporting her husband, but a husband doting his wife to show affection.
