Dayangshu and Li Guyu 3

Several years passed by, Da Yangshu was twenty years old, and Li Guyu was seventeen years old.

"It's time for me to go home."

"Going to what home?" She pressed him against the tree.

There were only two of them in the deep forest. Since he followed him all the way here, why should he be left alone?

"My parents are waiting for Xin'er at home."

Dayang Shu pinched his cheek: "Can you do it?"

Li Guyu's face was so pinched that she felt feverish: "Yes. I know I look thin and weak, and I don't look like someone you can rely on. But, I will do everything well and let you know that I can be relied on."

Dayang Shu chuckled: "I don't need to rely on you, I only need your heart and your whole person."

Li Guyu clutched his chest, his heart pounding so fast that he almost fainted. He even kissed her, and there was nothing he couldn't agree to, so he simply closed his eyes and said, "Here." He lowered his hands, revealing his pounding chest.

Dayang Shu swallowed her saliva. This was like a daisy waiting to be picked, and her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

The birds in the forest startled and the treetops swayed.

It was completely dark when we arrived at the door of Li Guyu's house. Da Yangshu rubbed his hand and asked, "Will your father beat you?"

Li Guyu's cheeks never recovered and remained hot: "No."

Dayang Shu whispered: "I will support you, but if he doesn't agree, he will take you to live in the mountains. I guarantee that you will have enough to eat and drink."

Li Guyu held her hand instead: "You are fooling around again. I will convince your parents. Don't worry. Don't break the etiquette and behave yourself."

As soon as Dayang Shu let go of her hand and Li Guyu was still holding it, she asked: "Aren't you talking about etiquette? Why are you holding my hand?"

Li Guyu lowered his head when she said that, yes, just now deep in the woods...

His head was congested and he was about to pass out again. Body shaking.

Dayang Shu supported him and quickly comforted him: "I am joking with you because I am relying on you and forcing you... Don't think you are bad. It is me who is shameless."

Li Guyu immediately raised his hand to cover her mouth: "No, no, don't talk nonsense, you are not relying on it, you are not forcing me, I, I, I am willing, I just want to perform the courtesy of Duke Zhou with you."

After saying that, he was shaking all over and ran home quickly. When he got home, he threw himself on the bed and rested for half an hour before catching his breath. Oh my God, it was so exciting.

The big poplar tree scratched its head, a courtesy from Duke Zhou? What an interesting word.

More than thirty years later.

Li Guyu has reached the highest position in Taiyuan Hospital and is the highest position in Taiyuan Hospital.

Dayang Shu manages the up-and-down affairs in the Princess Mansion and takes charge of his own role.

The two of them have seen the world and made friends with countless powerful people.

April 20th of this year. Li Guyu’s 50th birthday. A son and a daughter brought their entire family to pay their respects. Friends and family gathered together and it was a lively event.

Wait for everyone to disperse.

The old couple sat in the yard cuddling each other.

Dayang Shu said: "I have always wanted to know what the courtesy of Duke Zhou means, but my husband has never taught me, and no one usually says this. What does the courtesy of Duke Zhou mean?"

Li Guyu chuckled, this silly old woman, of course no one would say this to her.

He took the big poplar tree back to the bedroom, closed the carved door, and blew out the candle.

The cool moonlight shines on the red walls and gold tiles. An old couple’s moment of understanding.

…

Lao Li asked Lao Yang, "Do you understand?"

Dayang Shu was confused: "What do you understand?"

Li Guyu sighed and whispered in her ear: "That year in the forest, when the husband and wife were married, it was the gift of Zhou Gong."

Dayang Shu suddenly realized: "Oh~~~"

She looked at Li Guyu: "I am fifty-three and have no regrets. What about you?"

Li Guyu thought for a while: "I can probably live to be a hundred years old, and I will tell you then."

"Oh! I think you need a lesson! Do you want to tell me?"

"Tree~"

"What kind of tree!"

"Tree~"
