Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

He remembered that the first time he caught a deer in the mountains was several days after he returned to the village. When he returned, he was surrounded by villagers, but he didn't remember her being among them.

Zhong Ruyi smiled secretly. She and Cuicui were hiding behind a rock at the time, so it was strange that he could see them.

"I was right behind you, but the rocks blocked my view so you couldn't see me, but I could see you."

Chen Dongzhi's face got hot when he thought about the time when he had just returned, with a full beard and a sloppy appearance.

"Ahem! Does what you said to me before still count?" He coughed twice and changed the subject calmly.

Zhong Ruyi played dumb and asked, "What did you say? I don't remember it?"

Seeing her like this, Chen Dongzhi, who thought she really didn't remember it, suddenly became anxious.

"Didn't you ask me if I was willing to date you?"

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Zhong Ruyi pretended to be surprised.

Seeing that he was really anxious and sweating, I stopped teasing him, "Yes, yes, yes! I said it, so what do you want to tell me now?"

Although Chen Dongzhi felt a little embarrassed, the girl he liked had already expressed his feelings first, so how could he still be so timid and put on airs?

"I guess you've heard a little bit about my family's situation."

Zhong Ruyi nodded. His mother had said a few words about his family's affairs. After all, his mother had a good relationship with Aunt Chen, and Aunt Chen was willing to talk to him about many things.

"Before I retired, the general gave me 100 taels. I gave 50 taels to my mother, and the remaining 50 taels is with me. I sold the deer three times for a total of 100 taels. This is all my fortune."

In fact, the military camp distributed military pay every year. He saved it for several years and asked someone to bring it home. However, this person met robbers on the way, lost his money and almost lost his life.

"When we get married, I will give you all the money. I will do the housework and earn money to support our family. If you want to continue selling braised food in town, I will find a job in town, and then we can go home together after work."

Zhong Ruyi became more and more confused as she listened, and quickly interrupted him: "Wait, wait, wait! You've said so much, and we haven't even started dating yet. What if we don't get along in the future?"

Chen Dongzhi was at a loss, he had never thought that the two of them would have any incompatibilities. In his impression, his parents would sometimes quarrel and have conflicts.

In the military camp, those married men also said that they would often quarrel with their spouses, but despite the quarrels, their relationship was still good and they were tolerant of each other when getting along with each other.

He lowered his head, looking a little depressed, "Didn't you agree to try to get along with each other?"

He always remembered this saying, first get along for a year or so, and then separate if it's not suitable. This is the first time he heard this saying. However, in Dazhao, if a man and a woman can't live together after marriage, they can divorce. There is one in the village.

"Hey, don't be like that! Let's just get along with each other first like I said before, and then we can get married if it's a good match!"

The main reason is that she is only seventeen after the Chinese New Year. Even if they spend some time together and find the right person, she will only be eighteen. However, it is not uncommon for women to marry late in this dynasty. If they are not suitable, they will break up. Chen Dongzhi is in his early twenties and she is eighteen, both in their prime years.

"So, does that mean we are in love?" Chen Dongzhi was a little shy, but still asked the question.

Zhong Ruyi grabbed his hand on the table and said, "Of course! Brother Dongzhi! We will be in a relationship from now on! Maybe you will even be the father of my child in the future!"

With a bang, Chen Dongzhi's whole face turned red.

He stood up suddenly and stammered, "That's good! I'll go back first!"

After saying that, before Zhong Ruyi could react, he ran away.

Zhong Ruyi didn't expect his reaction to be so big. Before she could come to her senses, she saw the idiot Chen Dongzhi running back again.

"These two rabbits are what I left for you, and this one."

He put the rabbit on the table, took something out of his arms and put it in her hand, then turned and ran away.

Zhong Ruyi looked at the wooden box in her hand, opened it and saw a bracelet and a hairpin inside.

She looked at the two things carefully. Are these wooden bracelets?

I picked it up and smelled it. It had a woody scent but it was not fragrant. The hairpin was easy to recognize. It was a magnolia-shaped hairpin.

She couldn't put down the two things Chen Dongzhi gave her and played with them.

"Cough cough!"

Zhong's mother and second brother came out from behind the door. They had been standing behind the door and listening for a long time. They didn't expect that Chen Dongzhi, the boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would just run away like that.

The second brother was originally thinking about having a "good" chat with Chen Dongzhi, but he ended up running away.

Zhong Ruyi didn't expect that her mother and second brother had heard it. She thought they were still taking a nap and hadn't woken up yet.

"Mom! Second brother! Did you hear it?" She smiled and took Zhong's mother's hand.

Mother Zhong rolled her eyes at her and said, "You are being too reckless. How can a girl like you want to hold a man's hand?"

My second brother was so anxious, why did my mother say that? Wasn't it Chen Dongzhi's problem? A grown man actually came to the store to look for my little sister. If he had any bad intentions, wouldn't my little sister be in trouble?

But seeing his younger sister's happy smile, he didn't know what to say, so he sat down with his mother. As a result, Zhong's mother changed the subject and praised Chen Dongzhi, the one with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"However, I have watched Chen Dongzhi grow up with me. Although he has been away for a few years, his character is still good. I won't say anything about your relationship with him. Just don't do anything out of line."

Holding hands like just now was a small matter. Zhong Ruyi understood the meaning of Zhong's mother's words, and she nodded rapidly.

The second brother was right in thinking this. Chen Dongzhi’s home was just behind his own. If he really bullied his younger sister, would he be afraid that they would not be able to find him?

Thinking of this, he felt relieved. Just like his mother said, Chen Dongzhi grew up in the village, and people like them, who were not much older than him, knew his character.

But he only has this one sister, so he is always more cautious about her affairs.

Chen Dongzhi ran away with his face as red as a monkey's butt.

He hadn't run a few steps when he remembered that he still had some things he had bought before in his arms that he hadn't given away. He wanted to give them away before but it wasn't the right way to do so, and besides, there were always people around, so he was embarrassed to give them away.

So he ran back to deliver what was in his arms, and then ran again.

Alas! He only started to regret it after he finished running. What was there to be embarrassed about? She had already promised him, how could a grown man like him be so shameless!

Is it okay to go back now? I wonder if Ruyi will be angry if he suddenly runs away?
