"Are you okay?" Wu Nian's eyes fell on Liu Xiang, and when he saw that she was also disgraced, he felt distressed again and said softly.
That Mr. Li, I can't understand my hatred even after being beaten a hundred times.
"It's okay. It's all dirt." Liu Xiang felt concerned and put down her uneasiness. She stretched out her hand to rub her sore eyes and said with a smile.
"Yeah. I'll boil some water for you. You go take a bath." Wu Nian stretched out his right hand and gave Liu Xiang a slap on the head, and said with a smile. Well, it just feels bad in the hand and is full of dirt.
"How can I ask you to boil water? I can do it myself." Liu Xiang shook his head quickly.
As a woman, boiling water, cooking, and serving men is a matter of course. The reverse is not so good.
Wu Nian looked at Liu Xiang's expression carefully, smiled and nodded, "Okay then."
Liu Xiang hurriedly went to the kitchen to boil water. She looked into the water tank and felt very embarrassed about her disgraced look.
Wu Nian walked into the kitchen and sat with Liu Xiang, warming the stove.
"Brother. Why did they say you killed Li Ding?" Liu Xiang hadn't been so close to Wu Nian for a long time, and she felt her heartbeat was so strong. After thinking for a moment, she asked in order to divert her attention.
"Well... the Zhang Yong family wanted our land, so they wronged me." Wu Nian, of course, would not tell Liu Xiang the inside story. After thinking about it for a while, he said.
"Brother." After hearing this, Liu Xiang was filled with indignation. Her eyes widened, her fists were clenched, and her teeth were chattering. She held it in for a long time before saying, "Brother, I should have been more ruthless and pulled out more of her hair."
"That's all our family's fields are. She's still thinking about it."
In feudal society.
They range from princes and ministers to traffickers and pawns.
Tian is the treasure of the heart, the lifeblood.
Liu Xiang is certainly no exception.
"Forget it. I've beaten Ms. Li almost to death, and I guess I won't be able to get out of bed for three months. The anger in my heart has also come out." She looked a little cute like this, Wu Nian smiled and touched her head.
"Um."
Liu Xiang hummed, very submissive.
Soon the water boiled.
Liu Xiang carried the bucket, ladleed hot water and went to the bedroom to wash herself. Wu Nian took advantage of this time, picked up the bucket, and went to the well to draw water.
After filling the water tank, Wu Nian waited in the main room. Shortly after. Liu Xiang walked out.
Wu Nian has never seen Liu Xiang again since he went to the military camp. Looking at Liu Xiang now, his eyes can't help but light up.
thought. "My wife is so beautiful."
Liu Xiang was a little embarrassed by him and lowered her head slightly.
"Xiang'er. Where is the cloth I bought for you?" Wu Nian withdrew his eyes and asked doubtfully.
When he sold the venison, he clearly sold the cloth. But she was still wearing her old clothes.
Liu Xiang laughed, went back to the bedroom, and then took out two pieces of ready-made clothes. He said as if he was offering a treasure: "Brother, I made you two pairs of winter clothes."
Wu Nian didn't know what to say for a while. He sighed and said, "Silly wife. This is the cloth I bought just for you."
Liu Xiang shook her head and said, "I have clothes." She cleverly changed the subject and said with a smile, "Brother, try it on and see if it fits you."
Wu Nian had no choice but to realize that the situation was a done deal. You can't change your clothes back, right?
"Okay." Wu Nian nodded, and under Liu Xiang's service, he took off his old war jacket and put on new clothes.
"It fits very well. It's like it was tailor-made." Wu Nian looked down, moved a little, and praised.
"Hehe." Liu Xiang smiled, his face full of joy.
suddenly. She Xiafei lowered her head and grabbed the corner of her clothes. She hesitated for a while and then said in an inaudible voice: "Brother, let's set a date to get married."
Wu Nian was a little surprised by this sudden passage. Of course he was happy to. How nice it is to have my wife and children on the hot bed.
But he took a closer look at Liu Xiang's figure.
A sixteen-year-old girl has never grown up.
What's more, although Liu Xiang has gained some weight during this period, she is still on the thin side.
Although in the feudal era, it was normal for women to get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. But he is not an ancient person after all.
He felt sorry for Liu Xiang.
Wu Nian's mind changed, he pinched Liu Xiang's cheek with a smile and said, "Let's give it a while. Wait until brother knocks down this leaky old house and build a green brick house. Then buy a few more acres of land. Save some money. Marry a wife in style."
Liu Xiang was a little disappointed.
It was not easy for her to muster the courage. Even though she was a child bride, the woman proposed the marriage first and was ashamed.
But Wu Nian is right, who doesn’t like glamour? Our family is poor now. But as long as we work hard.
No. As long as I work hard.
Farming, weaving, needlework. Our family will be rich soon.
"Listen to brother." Liu Xiang's whole body was full of enthusiasm and motivation. He nodded heavily and said with firm eyes.
Wu Nian asked for leave from the army and will not go back today.
He also saw that there was very little firewood at home, so he took a pole and went out of the house, went up the mountain to chop some firewood and came back.
When he came back, he went to Butcher Zhang's house and bought some pork.
If he didn't buy meat for Liu Xiang, she wouldn't buy it herself.
She might even cook rice bran rice secretly.
For dinner, Liu Xiang made fried pork slices. But she didn't move her chopsticks, and Wu Nian picked up a lot of it, so she only ate half of it.
After eating, Liu Xiang went to boil water and wash the dishes.
Wu Nian sat on the stool and talked to her.
"Brother. I heard that Zhang Yong had a stroke." Liu Xiang turned around and said to Wu Nian while washing the dishes. His eyebrows are curved and he looks very happy.
Wu Nian showed a look of surprise.
Today I beat Mr. Li violently, but Zhang Yong didn't show up, but it turned out that he had suffered a stroke.
"Okay. God has eyes. This disaster should make him paralyzed." Wu Nian exhaled a breath of turbidity in his chest and said happily.
"That's not all." Liu Xiang said with a smile.
"Is there still trouble in the Zhang family?" Wu Nian was curious and a little expectant.
"The Zhang family has been separated for a long time. The eldest and his wife live independently. The second child lives with his parents. The second child was originally engaged and was about to get married. Now Zhang Yongdu is like this and Li Ding is dead. The other party regrets the marriage."
Liu Xiang smiled and put the dishes and chopsticks away in the cabinet.
"Retribution is unpleasant."
Wu Nian was also stunned for a moment, then laughed and clapped his hands.
Wu Nian spent the night at home in a happy mood.
Early the next morning.
Wu Nian had dinner, went out and returned to the military camp under Liu Xiang's reluctant eyes.
Today is not a day for training either.
Wang Gui, Li Yong, Zhang Sheng and Tieniu were either hiding in the house to keep warm or taking a walk outside. Seeing Wu Nian coming back, he quickly came over to say hello.
Immediately, the five brothers entered the house and sat down to talk.
There are no secrets in this hundred households. The news about Wu Nian's violent beating of Mr. Li yesterday has long been spread.
When the brothers talked about this, they were very supportive.
This building started to crooked as it was being built.
"Brother, there is an undercurrent in our camp right now." Zhang Sheng said to Wu Nian with a smile.
