The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy

Early the next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Lin Jiang quietly got up.

I planned to sneak to the workshop before the family got up.

I got beaten up last night. Even though I used the blood-bruise removing ointment that Bai Xiang had prescribed before, the bruises on my face couldn't be completely removed overnight.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the room, the door opposite opened.

"Hey? Jiang'er, what's wrong with your face? Are you hurt? Come out and let me see! Oh, you're really hurt! It's purple and yellow all over. Did you get beaten a few times?" Lin Erhe didn't dare to confirm it at first glance when he saw his third brother. He pulled him to the door to take a closer look in the gray light, and immediately started yelling.

If you listen carefully, you can even hear a hint of gloating.

Lin Jiang didn't think about it carefully last night. After thinking about it now, is there anything he is still unclear about?

"Second brother, Duobao came to report the news last night, but none of you followed except me. Did you and Duobao plot against me together?" Lin Jiang asked gently with a fake smile.

Lin Erhe's mouth was so tight that his back teeth could be seen, but his hands were waving. "How could you say that? How could I plot against you? You ran too hastily and didn't hear the second half of Duobao's words. The bed-serving was just a joke and had nothing to do with Miss Xu... You, why did you run so hastily? Otherwise, you wouldn't have gotten the beating, right? The old general said that the prince screamed miserably when he was beaten. It's strange. Your injuries should be no less serious than his. How could you hold back without making a sound?"

"..."

"By the way, what are you doing up so early? Are you planning to sneak out because you're afraid of being seen by your family? Can you keep it a secret for a while or for a long time? There are many people from Yuxi Village in the workshop. Before noon, they will tell you that you were beaten outside. Wouldn't that make your parents even more worried? I guess they will have to go to the workshop to check on you. You were not the type to try to cover up your mistake before! What are you panicking about? Hmm?"

"..."

"Hey, my parents and my eldest brother and his wife are up too. Let them see—"

Lin Jiang fled in panic.

Behind him was the second son of the Lin family, laughing wildly.

He rushed out of the house, still feeling embarrassed, and bumped into a woman who happened to be walking to the door of her house.

In order to avoid his grandfather's nagging, Xu Enhui also got up early.

The two stood in front of the Lin family's yard, looked at each other, and both stopped.

They no longer looked away subconsciously as they did before when looking at each other. They suppressed the shame in their hearts and just stared at each other.

The dim light in the sky revealed the passion in the young man's eyes that was no longer concealed.

The winter wind seemed to have a few more strands of playfulness, blowing people's earlobes red.

"What are you looking at? Why aren't you leaving, idiot?" Xu Enhui raised the corners of his mouth slightly with honey in his eyes, and spoke with a slight scolding.

Lin Jiang was dazed and coughed softly, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine now, but you don't look so well." Xu Enhui suppressed his laughter and glanced at the bruises on the man's face. "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Lin Jiang stared at the girl's pretty face, his eyes filled with a tenderness he didn't know existed. "Mr. Xu said I made him wait for so long. This time it's my turn to wait. When his anger subsides, we can talk about what happens next."

Xu Enhui couldn't help but burst out laughing.

It was something her grandfather would have said.

She put her hands behind her back and walked forward briskly, "Then you wait patiently."

After saying this, Lin Jiang couldn't control himself at all, and his gaze automatically turned to the woman.

Looking at her cheerful back, he curved his lips silently and followed her, "Yes."

The woman in front of me paused, without turning back, but the faint blush on her ears became even more intense, "...Yeah."

"Well, I won't underestimate myself, but there is a difference in social status between you and me. You can think more clearly. I can wait as long as it takes."

The reason why he didn't dare to express his feelings was that he wanted to give her more time to think it over. Perhaps during the waiting time, she would meet someone she liked more and who was more compatible with her.

He never belittled himself, but the difference in family background was real.

In the past, the Xu family was surrounded by wealthy and powerful families, who were considered to be a good match for the Xu family.

He doesn't feel inferior, but he is afraid that she will regret it in the future.

Xu Enhui slowed down his pace, his clear and pleasant voice confident and firm, "If I only cared about wealthy families, I should have settled down many years ago. But I don't want to be confined to the backyard to take care of my husband and children, I want to have my own world. You once said that the world is very harsh on women, so you were lenient to Zeng Ruyu who had wronged you, and you never said anything about my inappropriateness in public. For me, it is more important to find someone to accompany you, that is, to have the same ideals and interests, so that we can go through thick and thin together. I am attracted to you, because only you make me feel at ease."

Her love was accumulated bit by bit.

Until the love overflows, do not deceive yourself.

And his integrity and kindness deserve every bit of her love.

There was silence for a while, and then the man's gentle voice with a smile was heard.

She said she was infatuated with him.

"Yes."

"Idiot... hurry up and leave, there are people watching the fun on both sides!"

Not to mention the heads popping up stealthily from the walls of the houses ahead, even the Lin family's yard was full of people craning their heads to peek.

Lin Jiang's mouth twitched. The gossip trend in the village was getting worse.

Later, he spread the news that Prince Shen had been beaten, in order to suppress the gossip about him and Enhui.

Prince Shen, who was still lying in the bedroom of the Yan family's guest house, had not yet gotten up when his nose inexplicably started to itch again and he began to sneeze.

The gossipy Yuxi villagers, seeing that the two young men they had been following for a long time had finally gotten together, how could they be content to just peek at the progress?

Passing by the Li family courtyard, Li Fugui poked his head out and made a mocking expression, "Jiang'er, Miss Xu, you're up really early today!"

Passing by Wang's courtyard, Wang Quan grabbed a pancake and chewed it with a smile, "Hey, Jiang'er, Miss Xu, are you going to work?"

Passing by Zhang's courtyard, Aunt Zhang exclaimed, "Puchi! Hahaha! Aunt Li can't be as clever as the kid this time!"

"..."

"..."

It just so happens that the Yan family and the Lin family both live at the end of the village.

The two young men with red faces were ridiculed by the whole village.

Mrs. Li joined in the fun and was in even better spirits.

Jiang'er and Miss Xu are together!

Then wouldn't she have free time to kidnap her son-in-law?

So this winter, people living nearby could often hear the loud voice of Mrs. Li coming from the Li family.

"Ali, is it hard to chop wood? I shouldn't have asked you to do this job. Isn't it because there are not enough strong laborers in the family?"

"Wenxiu's father is old and has to stretch his waist to move, and her brother Fugui has to take care of the family medicine... I think we are very familiar with each other, so I subconsciously think of asking you for help when I have something I can't do, hahaha!"

"Yes, the one with half of the feathers missing from its wings is ours. Hurry up and take it back to the chicken coop! I'm so tired chasing this old hen. Thank you for your hard work, Ali!"

"You must stay for dinner tonight! You helped me with so much work, but you refused to eat at home. How could I be sorry for you?"

Ge Li suddenly became a helper for the Li family. During the winter months, apart from working in the workshop and eating and sleeping, he spent the rest of his time chasing chickens and dogs at the Li family.
