Quick Wear: The bad female supporting role, the male protagonist prefers

"Shao Jiang, I brought you a wife."

Behind Cheng Xingye followed Gu Shutang, who was empty-handed and looked a little embarrassed.

"Wife? Huh? Old man, are you kidding? I don't need one."

Cheng Shaojiang pushed the wheelchair by himself, looking impatiently at his old father who was making one move after another.

He lowered his eyes to look at his numb legs. He didn't want a wife. He was in this state. Which girl would really like him?

He doesn't want a hypocritical daughter-in-law with ulterior motives.

"I have already completed your formalities. Here is your marriage certificate."

Cheng Xingye ignored his youngest son's nonsense and continued talking to himself. He turned around and comforted Gu Shutang, "Shutang, don't mind it. He is just like that. He has a harsh mouth, but he has a good heart."

"Uncle, I know."

Gu Shutang licked her dry lips and responded to him. When Cheng Shaojiang heard the pleasant voice, he turned his head to look at the wife that Cheng Xingye had mentioned, whom he didn't care about.

How could it be her?

Cheng Shaojiang's eyes were unclear as he kept staring at Gu Shutang. Gu Shutang felt embarrassed by the burning gaze and moved slightly, trying to use Cheng Xingye's body to block Cheng Shaojiang's probing gaze.

Cheng Xingye was very sad to see his son in such a depressed state.

His son was undoubtedly a source of pride for him, having reached the rank of lieutenant colonel on his own before he was even thirty.

If that mission hadn't left him unable to stand and forced him to retire, he wouldn't be like this now, silently moving out of the compound and living alone in a small courtyard, unwilling to contact anyone.

"Shu Tang is also a poor child. How can a little girl take care of herself when she goes to the countryside?"

With the girl's appearance, the Gu family would probably be bullied by some unscrupulous village bullies if she went to the countryside.

Gu Shutang is the most beautiful girl in the military compound. Although she has a bit of a quirky personality, she has a pretty face. Just standing there can make people calm down a little.

Unfortunately, she was not the real daughter of the Gu family. After the biological daughter of the Gu family was found, her life in the Gu family became a little more difficult and she was no longer as free as before.

Cheng Xingye felt that only a girl as beautiful as Gu Shutang was worthy of his youngest son. Therefore, when Gu Shutang was about to be forced to go to the countryside, Cheng Xingye stepped forward and brought her home to be his daughter-in-law.

Cheng Shaojiang gripped the wheelchair handles tightly. Didn't her family love her the most? They had always been obedient to her and raised her to be very proud of her.

How could she be willing to marry such a bright and beautiful girl to a disabled person like him who was hiding in a dark corner and fending for himself?

His tone was a little stiff, sounding like disgust, "How could she be willing to marry a cripple like me when she's so delicate?"

Gu Shutang came out from behind Cheng Shaojiang, her shoulders trembling, "Brother Shaojiang, I'm not the daughter of the Gu family. If I don't get married, I have to go to the countryside."

"Brother Shao Jiang, please take me in. I will definitely be a good wife to you."

Cheng Shaojiang's fingers moved, his mouth dry, his eyes fixed on her, with a captivating aura, "Don't you mind my crippled legs?"

Gu Shutang saw that Cheng Shaojiang looked like he wanted to eat her, as if he would eat her alive if she didn't give him an answer that satisfied him. Tears streamed down her face and she looked at Cheng Shaojiang with red eyes.

"Brother Shao Jiang, you injured your legs for the country and the people. You are a great hero. How could I possibly despise you?"

The villain opposite her had just had his legs broken and was unable to tell his emotions. Even though she knew that he was the same person as before, Gu Shutang couldn't help but feel a little scared when she thought of his cruel methods in the plot.

He was not like her, with memories of the previous dimensions. Now she was standing in front of him, just a neighbor who he had met a few times but was not familiar with, and lived in the same compound.

"Ah!"

Cheng Shaojiang raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, as if when he was just injured, he had told her friends behind her back that she would never marry a disabled man unless she was the one.

"come in!"

But he didn't argue with her at this time. He moved the wheelchair and let them in.

Cheng Xingye took Gu Shutang in. He understood that his son had difficulty in moving, so he took the teapot and poured a glass of water for him and Gu Shutang.

Cheng Xingye took out a large stack of banknotes from his pocket in front of Cheng Shaojiang and shouted at him, "This is not for you, it's for my daughter-in-law. Don't say anything."

Before, Cheng Xingye always wanted to give Cheng Shaojiang money, but the proud Cheng Shaojiang was unwilling to accept it. Cheng Xingye was afraid that Cheng Shaojiang would refuse again, so he quickly made it clear.

"Shu Tang left home in a hurry and didn't bring anything with him. He needs to buy a lot of things. The situation is serious now, so it's not appropriate to hold a grand ceremony. I'm sorry Shu Tang has been wronged."

Cheng Xingye stuffed the stack of money into Gu Shutang's hand and said, "This is the betrothal gift our family gives you, one thousand yuan. The remaining five hundred yuan is your compensation. Take this money and buy yourself something nice."

"As for your work, I will find a way to arrange it for you later."

Cheng Xingye was afraid that Gu Shutang would return the money, so he left Cheng Shaojiang's yard after giving him his instructions.

Gu Shutang was left staring at Cheng Shaojiang in a wheelchair with a large stack of money.

Money is hard to spend nowadays. The salary of a first-level worker is only 17 or 18 yuan. The 1,500 yuan that Cheng Xingye stuffed in can be said to be a huge sum of money.

Even the original owner's adoptive parents might not have so much savings.

Gu Shutang felt the money was a little hot in his hands, so he put it on the table and whispered to Cheng Shaojiang, who was sitting in a wheelchair with an expressionless face, "How about you wait until your uncle comes next time and then give it back to him?"

"Dad gave it to you, just keep it."

Cheng Shaojiang's eyes were dark, and a half-smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Could it be that your desire to marry me is fake, and everything is just a temporary measure on your part, so you don't even want the betrothal gift?"

"Gu Shutang, we don't have fake couples sleeping in the same bed here. We have to be real couples with real guns and real bullets."

Gu Shutang's face flushed, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito, as if she had heard the hidden meaning in his words, "I, I didn't. I really want to be your husband and wife."

"Then accept the betrothal gift the old man gave you."

Cheng Shaojiang glanced at Gu Shutang, and the fake smile on his face turned into a genuine smile.

Gu Shutang was dazzled by his smile. Ignoring the gloomy aura around him, he still looked good.

She put the money on the table away and wrapped it up in the handkerchief she brought with her. She stared at Cheng Shaojiang with her eyes fixed on him. "Brother Shaojiang, where do I live?"

"Of course you'll stay in my room. We're already a couple, and you're still thinking of sleeping in separate rooms?"

"No."

Gu Shutang replied quickly, fearing that a wrong word would anger the villain.

Then he stood naturally behind Cheng Shaojiang, pushed his wheelchair, and took him to the bedroom with the door open.

She went to the bedroom to put away the huge stack of money. She felt uneasy and cumbersome carrying it with her. She brought Cheng Shaojiang in just to prove that she just wanted to put the money away and had no intention of rummaging through his things.

"I'm going to cook, Brother Shao Jiang, you sit here for a while."

Gu Shutang pushed the man back into the living room, said something to him, and wanted to go to the kitchen to cook. After all, he had been busy all day. First, he had a confrontation with the Gu family, and then he had to run around with Cheng Xingye to handle the procedures.

"You can cook? I remember you couldn't even start a fire."

Although no one knew why the Gu family asked her to go to the countryside instead of her brothers, even Cheng Shaojiang, who was not often in the compound, knew a little about her.

After all, no one in the compound would cook out of curiosity and end up setting the kitchen on fire.

From then on, the Gu family didn't dare let her get close to the kitchen, for fear that she would hurt herself again.

"I...well, I really can't, but I can learn."

Gu Shutang also remembered the original owner's masterpiece and said it without any confidence.

"Push me into the kitchen and I'll teach you."

Although he didn't need her to cook for him, Cheng Shaojiang felt that Gu Shutang still needed to master these necessary life skills.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Shaojiang was very good about teaching her how to make a fire and cook. He first told her how to make a fire orally, then demonstrated it himself by stir-frying meat and vegetables, and finally let her cook the last dish.

Although Gu Shutang knew how to make the honeycomb coal, which was unique to this era, he pretended to be clumsy and tried several times before he could light the fire. He even got it on his face, leaving black marks.

Cheng Shaojiang looked at the somewhat funny Gu Shutang with a smile and asked her to stretch her head over. Not knowing why, she obediently turned her head towards Cheng Shaojiang.

Cheng Shaojiang wiped her cheek in this posture, and her face was immediately covered with black coal dust.

Cheng Shaojiang looked at her unconscious expression and his smile became more sincere.

He took the two dishes from Gu Shutang's hand and asked her to push him to the dining table to eat.

After dinner, Cheng Shaojiang pushed his wheelchair into the yard, bent down and laboriously placed the chopped firewood on his numb legs. He held the firewood on his legs with one hand to prevent it from falling, and with the other hand he quickly moved the wheelchair to carry the firewood to the kitchen.

Gu Shutang, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, didn't pay any attention to Cheng Shaojiang who came in at first. She was still pretending to be the original owner who knew nothing about housework.

Only when she heard the "boom" sound of a heavy object being dropped to the ground did she turn around and see Cheng Shaojiang, his pants covered in dust, standing calmly next to a pile of firewood. She thought that the sound just now was made by Cheng Shaojiang dropping the firewood on the ground.

"Brother Shao Jiang, there are some honeycomb coals over there. Why are you carrying so much firewood here?"

"Boil water for a bath."

His voice was a little hoarse.
