A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

Xia Tian was stunned. This big brother had only asked her a few questions outside the door since she came yesterday, and hadn't spoken since then.

I was surprised and wondered what happened to my brother.

Unexpectedly, Xia Yang turned around, half squatted down, and said, "Si Ya, come up, big brother will carry you out."

Xia Tian suddenly felt a warm feeling in his heart. Without any pretense, he said "Thank you, brother", then lay on Xia Yang's back and let his brother carry him out the door.

Xia Yang carried Xia Tian out of the gate before putting him down. Except for the people from the second branch of the Xia family, everyone else hid in the house and did not come out.

Xia Tian carried his bag, waved to his parents, older brothers and sisters, and younger brothers and sisters who were standing at the door, turned around and followed Matchmaker Liu.

Liujia Village is about an hour's walk from Xiajia Village. On the way, matchmaker Liu briefly told Xia Tian about the man's family situation, and they soon arrived at Liujia Village.

The sickly boy is called Shen Nian, and he lives near the end of Liujia Village.

Matchmaker Liu took Xia Tian and started from the big willow tree at the entrance of the village. Along the way, she kept greeting the villagers who were working in the fields. When a villager asked about her, she introduced her as the new wife of the young man from the outsider family, the Shen family.

The villagers passing by looked at Xia Tian curiously. Xia Tian followed behind Matchmaker Liu, with his head lowered, pretending to be shy and not saying a word.

The villagers just thought that the new bride was embarrassed and just made a few jokes and let it go.

Arriving at Shen Nian's house, Xia Tian felt a little uneasy as he looked at the house that looked no different from any other house in the village.

I don’t know what kind of person Shen Nian is and whether he is easy to get along with.

Xia Tian suddenly felt timid. The fear of the unknown made her dare not take a step forward.

Matchmaker Liu walked forward, pushed open the door, turned around and greeted Xia Tian. Xia Tian took a deep breath and stepped into the yard.

Matchmaker Liu walked in and called out to Shen Nian as she went upstairs, "Shen family boy, I've brought your wife to you. Come out and see her."

Xia Tian stood in the yard, holding the bag nervously in both hands, staring at the door of the upper room.

After a while, accompanied by a few coughs, the door curtain of the upper room opened, and a handsome man wearing a coarse cloth short shirt, who was estimated to be over 1.8 meters tall, came out of the door.

When Xia Tian saw the man’s appearance, she was stunned for a moment.

Oh my god! So handsome!

I don’t know how to describe summer. You can just imagine Xiao Zazan in ancient costume with a slightly frown on his brow. It’s even better than that.

In her previous life, she was a loyal fan of Xiao Zanzan. This is the idol shining into reality!

If this were Shen Nian, she would wake up laughing in her sleep!

Xia Tian was worried. This should be Shen Nian, right? Right? Right!

Xia Tian prayed in his heart, and the nervousness he had just felt disappeared. He turned around and stared at Matchmaker Liu eagerly, wanting to confirm it one last time.

Unfortunately, Matchmaker Liu did not receive Xia Tian’s signal.

But she soon found out.

Matchmaker Liu was also very happy at this time. Looking at the bulging purse that Shen Nian handed over, she smiled with wrinkles on her face, "Young man of the Shen family, if you have any problems in the future, you can still look for your aunt!"

Shen Nian nodded, and after watching Matchmaker Liu leave the yard, he glanced at Xia Tian. This girl had been staring at him. Shen Nian frowned in disgust and said, "Come in."

Xia Tian licked his lips, calmed down his excitement, and followed in.

It is around eight o'clock in the morning. The sun is quite strong today and the room is quite bright.

On the right hand side of the door is a large kang (bedded bed) with two large wooden boxes at the end of the kang and bedding on the boxes. In the middle of the kang is a kang table with an open book on it. I guess Shen Nian was reading on the kang just now.

Against the wall opposite the door stood a three-foot-high, six-foot-long cabinet. Under the left window stood a square table and two stools. Against the wall near the door stood a washstand, draped with a cloth and resting on a wooden basin. Nothing else.

It is even simpler than the main hall of the Xia family.

Xia Tian watched Shen Nian sit on the stool next to the table on the left, and without waiting to greet her, he sat directly on another stool.

Shen Nian looked at the strange girl's actions and raised his eyebrows slightly. Haha, she's quite brave!

Xia Tian looked at Shen Nian calmly. He looked thin, with pale lips and coughs from time to time. He really seemed to be seriously ill!

What a pity, she's so pretty!

However, although Shen Nian's dress was no different from that of the villagers, his extraordinary appearance and the temperament in his every move showed that his background was definitely not simple.

Conspiracy theories immediately began to run through Xia Tian’s mind.

After all, she has read spy war and palace fighting novels and TV shows for many years, such as the rich young man taking refuge in a farmer's house to avoid disaster, the young master of a marquis's mansion hiding his identity and waiting for an opportunity to act to avoid being hunted down, and so on. There are too many stories!

Xia Tian was almost amused by her own unbridled thoughts. Could it be that she was the chosen one, helping the prince in distress to achieve revenge and then reach the pinnacle of life...

"cough cough"

The sudden cough brought Xia Tian back from his daydreaming state.

Xia Tian cleared his throat unnaturally. Hmm, I was thinking too far away...

"Miss Xia..., marrying you is not my original intention, but since you are here, then do your duty. I don't need to serve me personally, you just need to prepare three meals a day on time."

Shen Nian's straightforward and emotionless voice made Xia Tian think that she was here to apply for a job today.

"You live in the next room. It's best not to come in except when cleaning this room."

Seeing such a cold tone, Xia Tian thought that they were not a newlywed couple at all, but a boss and his subordinate!

Still a domineering president!

But it suits her just fine!

Xia Tian nodded and said, "You are handsome, so you have the final say."

A little sparrow like her should know her own limitations.

The moment she saw Shen Nian, she was still wondering, how could such a man choose a village girl as his wife?

Now I know, they just want to find a nanny.

It has been less than two days since yesterday, and the confusion, uneasiness, and fear of the unknown life that I felt in the summer are suddenly relieved at this moment.

You see, life isn’t that bad!

After getting a clear positioning, Xia Tian instantly stood up. "Shen Nian, your name is Shen Nian, right? You mean that from now on, the two of us will just be living together, right?"

Shen Nian thought for a moment and understood what Xia Tian said, "Almost."

"Then I'll just call you Shen Nian from now on? Or Master Shen? Or Big Brother Shen?"

"Brother Shen!" Shen Nian said after a moment of silence.

"Okay, Brother Shen, let me introduce myself first. My name is Xia Tian, the summer in the Chinese zodiac. You can just call me by my name. I will do my best, just watch me perform!"

Shen Nian looked at Xia Tian who was instantly excited, and understood that this girl probably didn't want to marry him. That was the best, as it would save a lot of trouble.

In the summer, I went to the next room, put down my bag, and looked around. On the left was a large kang with two large wooden boxes on it. On the boxes were folded bedding and nothing else.

Although it was simple, it was tidy. I figured I had fallen into someone else's trap and was in no position to be picky.

Xia Tian thought that since it was their first day meeting each other, he had to leave a good impression on his friends.
