Chapter 3 Stay

Author: Potato Sweet Potato Pie

Xia Yuan was deep in thought when suddenly a bowl of noodles was handed to him. He raised his head and met Zhao Yuerong's careful expression. The little girl had just cried, and her shoulders were shaking instinctively, so that the soup in the noodles

They were all a little shaken, "Husband, husband, let's eat some noodles."

As she spoke, she secretly swallowed.

Xia Yuan sighed when he saw this, put his hand against the edge of the bowl and pushed it back twice, "You can eat it. After we finish eating, we will go to your house together and explain this matter clearly."

His original intention was to come and talk about the matter and ask for an explanation, but as soon as he said these words, Zhao Yuerong's eyes were filled with tears again, and he twitched his little nose and choked out: "I, I can work,

I can wash clothes and cook.

Me, I can also weave and make clothes."

"I don't eat much, so I can live well."

"Can you please not drive me back, husband?"

The little girl's voice was pleading, with an uncontrollable tremor in it, but even so, she was still working hard to sell herself and tell her usefulness.

Looking at her pleading and cowardly eyes, how pitiful and pitiful she was, Xia Yuan didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only say helplessly: "Don't cry, I didn't say I would drive you back."

, I just want to go to your house and ask this matter clearly."

"But since I married you, this is my home."

Hearing this, Xia Yuan felt a headache again. Yes, this era is no better than that of later generations. Divorce is normal in later generations. Even cheating is not a big deal. But this is the Ming Dynasty. A man who pays attention to marrying and obeying his husband.

era.

In this era, men are superior to women, women have no status and are completely accessories to men.

From the moment he got married to her, he had already put his own stamp on her body.

Her home has become her home.

Especially in this era, reputation is the most important thing for women.

Therefore, it doesn't matter whether he drives her back or takes her to her parents' house to question her face to face.

Either way will have an immeasurable impact on her reputation.

Once this happens, her life will be ruined.

Looking at the little girl looking at him pitifully, Xia Yuan sighed helplessly.

Now that things have come to this, can I just hold my nose and accept this little girl as my wife?

But she looked like an underage girl, always feeling guilty even if she did nothing.

Moreover, no matter how hard you think, you will lose ten taels of silver.

"Husband."

It seemed that he noticed that Xia Yuan was loose.

Zhao Yuerong shouted weakly again.

The voice was small, soft, and sounded pitiful.

"What?"

"Can you please not drive me away? It's a betrothal gift. I can pay it back to you if I can work."

Hearing this, Xia Yuan was angry and funny, "Do you know how much the betrothal gift I gave to your family is? It's a full ten taels of silver. How can you pay it back?"

"I"

Zhao Yuerong opened her mouth to say something, but fell silent in the end. She originally thought she could work to earn money to pay off her debts.

But she never expected that the betrothal gift would be a full ten taels of silver.

With so much money, you can't sell yourself even if you sell yourself, right?

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuerong's tears flowed down again, and she said intermittently: "I, I, I'm sorry, husband, husband, please drive me back, wuwu, I shouldn't have cheated on my marriage, I, I, I

,sorry."

She bit her lower lip tightly, trying to suppress her crying instinctively, but when she thought of being arrested by the government and beaten, not only was she beaten, she would also be kicked out and become a beggar, with no place to live and no one to find.

Eat and then starve to death.

When she thought of this, she felt uncontrollably sad and scared in her heart, and tears flowed down her face.

Xia Yuan completely lost his temper because of the little girl's crying look.

Without him, this little loli's crying appearance is really pitiful. To describe it simply, it's the kind of person who wants to cry but doesn't dare to cry. Even if she does cry, she doesn't dare to cry too loudly.

I could only shed tears, twitch my little nose, and choke.

"Oh, can you please stop crying? It was me who was deceived, not you. I didn't even cry. Why are you crying?"

Speaking of this, Xia Yuan saw her crying even more pitifully. He sighed and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, please don't cry. I won't drive you away, so you can stay."

Zhao Yuerong was crying and sobbing. Hearing these words, he stayed where he was.

stay.

Can you stay by yourself?

"I, can I really stay?" She opened her eyes wide, in disbelief. Surprise and expectation were intertwined. There were still tears on her beautiful face. She was wearing a bright red wedding dress and still holding a cup in her hand.

With that bowl of noodles.

Seeing her like this, Xia Yuan rubbed his forehead and said, "Yes, stay."

Immediately, he looked at the bowl of noodles in Xiao Douding's hand. He had been busy with the wedding today and didn't eat much.

I'm really hungry now.

Xia Yuan stretched out his hand to take the face, thought for a moment, and educated him with a straight face: "It's okay to stay, but it's wrong for you to do this."

"Yes." Zhao Yuerong responded weakly, but his eyes were bright, revealing uncontrollable joy.

"Okay, wipe your tears and go eat the bowl of noodles on the table."

Zhao Yuerong turned around and looked at the bowl of noodles on the table. There was chicken soup in it, and the aroma could be clearly smelled.

She was obviously very hungry, but she still swallowed secretly, shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry, husband."

"You're not hungry. What did you swallow just now? Go and eat."

"You can keep it for your husband to eat tomorrow morning."

"It's summer now. Can we still eat it until tomorrow morning? If it goes bad by then, we'll have to throw it away. Go eat it quickly."

After that, Xia Yuan stopped urging and picked up a few noodles with chopsticks and put them into his mouth.

The noodles were filled with chicken soup, but for a person from a later generation like him, it could only be said to be barely edible.

And I don’t know whether it’s because the noodle-making skills in the Ming Dynasty were not sophisticated enough, or because it was left out for too long and the noodles were a little squishy. I always felt that the noodles were not strong enough.

On the first day after traveling through time, he had already begun to miss the technology and hard work of modern society.

It's a pity that Ming Dynasty does not have Hex Technology at the moment.

Zhao Yuerong on the other side still didn't move. She just stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, turned around, and couldn't help but swallow when she saw Xia Yuan eating noodles.

I really want to eat it.

Moreover, there is still rare white noodles in the bowl, and there is chicken on top. It has been a long, long time since I have eaten white noodles at home. As for the meat, I can only taste it during the Chinese New Year.

Seeing that the bowl of noodles in Xia Yuan's hand was about to reach the bottom, she hesitated for a long time before she mustered up the courage. She asked in a low voice with slightly red cheeks: "Wait, after my husband finishes eating, can you give me the soup?"

"Like soup?" Xia Yuan asked.

"Um."

"But this is what I have left." Xia Yuan looked down at the noodle soup in his bowl, hesitated, and handed it over, "If you don't mind it, just take it and drink it."

Zhao Yuerong carefully took the bowl, picked it up and took a sip. His red and swollen eyes from crying lit up for a moment, and then he drank the soup in the bowl bit by bit until there was no drop left, then he licked it with unfulfilled interest.

lips.

She put the empty bowl back on the table, looked at Xia Yuan again, and whispered, "Thank you, husband, I'm full."

"Is this enough?"

"Well, I can make a living well."

Hearing this, Xia Yuan looked at the empty bowl and then at the petite little girl. This little daughter-in-law is indeed very easy to feed. She can be full just by drinking some soup.

"Gululu"

At this moment, suddenly there was a gurgling sound.

The room was very quiet, and the protest from the stomach could be clearly heard.

Then, Xia Yuan saw the little girl's cheeks suddenly turn red, and her big eyes flashed with panic.

Seeing this scene, he suddenly laughed.

Hearing Xia Yuan's laughter, Zhao Yuerong was so embarrassed that he didn't even know where to put his hands and feet. His slightly rough hands tightly squeezed the corners of the wedding dress, lowering his head as if he had done something wrong.

Seeing her like this, Xia Yuan suddenly felt that his heart softened. This little kid was quite cute.
