After the marriage, the sick husband lived a long life

With parents, a brother, and someone willing to protect her in this life, Xu Zhiyan feels that she may be able to live this ordinary life.

Do something she likes, meet the right person in the future, get married and have two children. That would be enough. She doesn't dare to think about more.

Chu Jinxiao looked at Xu Zhiyan in front of him curiously, and always felt that there was a sense of brokenness in Xu Zhiyan.

This feeling made Chu Jinxiao feel a little uncomfortable.

"What are you thinking about?"

"It's okay. I always feel like there are a lot of things I want to do, but I also feel like there are very few things I can do." Xu Zhiyan was actually quite confused.

This era demands too much from women.

Xu Zhiyan felt that she was not qualified for this role.

"Why do you say that?"

Xu Zhiyan remained silent and did not speak. Chu Jinxiao did not urge her, but just stayed quietly beside Xu Zhiyan.

The quiet look made Xu Zhiyan a little amused.

"I'm not used to you doing this." Xu Zhiyan said softly.

"If you don't speak, I can't ask you anything. I'll just stay with you quietly like this."

Xu Zhiyan couldn't help but laugh. This was why she liked being with Chu Jinxiao.

He really knows what to do and when, and won't force anything.

"Chu Jinxiao, you are really an easy person to get along with." Xu Zhiyan said with a smile as she looked at Chu Jinxiao in front of her.

Chu Jinxiao smiled slightly and looked at Xu Zhiyan in front of him lovingly: "As long as you are happy."

"Now tell me, why do you say there is so little that can be done?"

Xu Zhiyan laughed at herself and said, "There aren't many things women can do. The world requires women to take care of their husbands and children. Apart from that, there seems to be nothing else women can do."

"how come?"

“There are actually a lot of things I want to do.”

"I want to do business. I want to make porcelain and I want to do a lot, but..." Xu Zhiyan hesitated.

She didn't know whether what she did was considered heresy in this era.

Chu Jinxiao looked at Xu Zhiyan's bitter smile, thought for a moment and said, "Will you marry me? I will give you any environment you want, and I will support you and let you do anything you want."

Xu Zhiyan looked at Chu Jinxiao in front of him in astonishment, shook her head and said with amusement: "You are making fun of me."

In response, Chu Jinxiao said seriously: "I'm not kidding you, I'm telling the truth."

Seeing that Chu Jinxiao seemed to be serious this time, Xu Zhiyan suddenly became nervous and frowned and said, "What are you talking about?"

What is Chu Jinxiao's identity? She is just a peasant girl.

How could he really like an ordinary person like me, other than making fun of me?

Chu Jinxiao had a headache. Why was Xu Zhiyan unwilling to believe that he was serious and not joking with her?

Chu Jinxiao frowned and looked at Xu Zhiyan in front of him, and asked seriously: "Why don't you want to believe me?"

"Everything I told you is true."

He said this to Xu Zhiyan only after serious consideration.

It's not a momentary impulse.

Xu Zhiyan rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "I still understand the principle of marrying someone of equal status. Chu Jinxiao, please stop saying such things. After all, if your mother knew what you said, what would you do?"

A man like Chu Jinxiao would definitely find someone with a similar family background to be his wife. How could that be possible for me?

Chu Jinxiao was wondering why Xu Zhiyan didn't believe it, but it turned out to be because of this.

Hearing that it was just because of this, Chu Jinxiao was relieved immediately: "You can rest assured about this. Although my family has some power, whoever I want to be with will listen to me."

"Besides, because of my physical condition, people in the capital don't like me. You should know that." In the eyes of everyone in the capital, he is a short-lived ghost.

Who could like such a person?

Xu Zhiyan nodded in understanding: "If it's because of your health, then you're almost well now, wouldn't it be better to let them know?"

Chu Jinxiao was choked by Xu Zhiyan's words. He looked at Xu Zhiyan in disbelief and asked, "You don't really think that I want to be with you because of this, right?"

Xu Zhiyan looked at Chu Jinxiao in front of her in confusion and asked doubtfully, "Isn't it?"

Chu Jinxiao's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly: "Of course not."

"I say, why do you think so much, little girl?"

"I'm telling you the truth. You and I are not a good match. We are not suitable for each other."

Chu Jinxiao looked at Xu Zhiyan and said seriously, "I said this to you after spending some time with you and after careful consideration. I am not kidding you."

Xu Zhiyan looked at Chu Jinxiao in surprise. He had actually considered it seriously?

Thinking of this, Xu Zhiyan hesitated, not knowing whether she should continue to talk about this with Chu Jinxiao.

"I……"

"I want you to consider that I can make my own decisions regarding my marriage."

Xu Zhiyan still shook her head and said, "I just want to help ordinary people get married. I am jealous and don't want to see my husband have other women."

Originally Xu Zhiyan thought that Chu Jinxiao would definitely be dissatisfied if she said such things.

After all, having three wives and four concubines is ingrained in these people's bones.

However, Chu Jinxiao was not unhappy at all, but rather a little surprised: "Just because of this?"

Xu Zhiyan stared blankly at Chu Jinxiao who seemed a little surprised. Why was it different from what she expected?

Looking at the person in front of him with a strange expression, Xu Zhiyan said helplessly: "I am jealous, don't you understand?"

"I understand, so I want to confirm, are you unwilling to agree just because of this?" Chu Jinxiao looked at Xu Zhiyan seriously and asked.

Xu Zhiyan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Seeing this, Chu Jinxiao relaxed a lot. He looked at Xu Zhiyan in front of him with a smile and said, "I thought it was a big deal, but I didn't expect it was just because of this. I was shocked."

"If this is your only reason, I can marry only one person in my life."

"Why?" Xu Zhiyan asked subconsciously.

I don’t understand why Chu Jinxiao would have such an idea.

"My mother once told me that if you truly love someone, you will not let another woman make your loved one sad. Maybe I don't love you now, I just like you, but I can be sure that there will be no one I like more." Chu Jinxiao's expression was very serious and solemn when he said this.

Xu Zhiyan stared at Chu Jinxiao in a daze and didn't react for a moment.

"I know you may not believe what I said, but I still hope you can give me a chance to prove myself." Chu Jinxiao's attitude was very serious.
