The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Song Yuntang chatted with Nian'er for a while, and seeing that she was in a much better mood, he went back into the house.

Xu Qingye was sitting at the head of the bed reading a book.

"Have you told your parents that you are going to the capital?" Song Yuntang took off his shoes and climbed onto the side of the bed.

Xu Qingye put down the book.

"I've already said it. Mom and Dad don't have any objections. Let me discuss it with you." He looked at Song Yuntang, "Tang'er, are you really not going with me?"

Song Yuntang sat down next to him.

"If you successfully pass the joint and palace examinations next year, I will go to the capital with you after you return. This way, I won't delay your imperial examinations."

"What if not?" Xu Qingye asked.

Song Yuntang hesitated for a moment.

"If not... the situation in Anyang County will be almost clear by May or June next year. I will then go to the capital to look for you."

Hearing this, Xu Qingye breathed a sigh of relief.

"it is good."

He was also worried that she didn't want to go to the capital with him.

I will leave at the end of next month and we will be separated for eight months until we meet again next year. I didn’t think eight months was long before, but now that I have concerns in my heart, it seems so long.

"When there's a chance, I'll accompany Tang'er to visit the provincial capital."

Song Yuntang tilted his head.

"Why do you suddenly want to go shopping with me?"

Xu Qingye reached out and held her in his arms.

"I may not be around for the New Year or your birthday next year, so I want to spend more time with you during this time."

Song Yuntang leaned on his shoulder and looked up in his direction.

"Then should I prepare two gifts for you as well? Your birthday is only nineteen days later than mine. If you take part in the palace examination, you might not be able to make it back on your birthday."

In a few months she will be eighteen and Xu Qingye will be twenty-five.

When we meet again, it will be time to think about having children.

She could feel that her family members were a little anxious now, but they just didn't say it in front of her.

Xu Qingye had a faint smile on his lips.

"You don't need to buy it for me. Just take good care of yourself. That will be the best gift for me."

Song Yuntang looked at him with a little surprise, as if she didn't expect Xu Qingye to say this. This was the only sweet words she had heard from him in the one year since they got married.

She arched her brows.

"It's really surprising to hear such words from Mr. Xu."

So, Xu Qingye should like her too.

It's just that men are not good at speaking and can't say it out loud.

But she always remembered his considerate care for her.

fair enough.

Compared to a man who speaks sweet words, he makes her feel more at ease.

The man was puzzled.

"Is that a surprise?"

Song Yuntang leaned lightly on his shoulder and said, "Maybe I've seen you so serious so many times that I think what you just said is quite different."

After a pause, he asked again.

"Xu Qingye, do you like children?"

She also saw him talking to Hu'er today.

If they have children, he should be able to be a good and emotionally stable father who can teach them to read and write and teach them how to behave in society.

Xu Qingye nodded, "I like it."

"Do you prefer boys or girls?" she asked again.

He held Song Yuntang's hand tightly.

"Boy or girl is fine." He looked down at her, "Where's Tang'er?"

Looking at the man's deep eyes, Song Yuntang swallowed hard.

"I think either is fine."

Looking at the face getting closer and closer to him, Song Yuntang's heart began to beat faster.

The next moment, their lips touched each other, and the man's breath was hot, surrounding her tightly.

Jiang got up, washed up, and started making breakfast as usual.

When the porridge in the pot was almost cooked, she saw that there was no movement in the yard and looked outside the house in confusion.

"Are the children still awake?"

While washing his face, Xu Yongwang said, "Wencheng went out with Xia Ning to practice martial arts. Qingye and his daughter-in-law are still in the house."

As he spoke, he wrung out the handkerchief and poured the water in the basin into the garden.

"If the children want to sleep, let them sleep more. If they don't sleep more when they feel sleepy when they are young, they will not be able to sleep when they are old. Qingye just came out of the examination room. It must be harder than doing physical work for us. I saw that the whites of his eyes were a little red yesterday. My daughter-in-law must have been worried about her these days and didn't sleep well. You can make some of her favorite dishes to nourish her body later."

While busying herself, Jiang said, "I didn't want to call them. It doesn't matter if they eat earlier or later. If they haven't woken up yet, just keep it warm in the pot first."

Nian'er poked her head out from behind the stove.

"Aunt, my cousin's wife said she's going back to the county town in two days. Do you and uncle want to go together?"

Jiang smiled and shook her head. "Your cousin is going to the capital next month, so you should let him and his wife spend more time together. When Nian'er goes with him, please help your cousin's wife more so that she can have some peace of mind."

Nian'er nodded.

"what I should do."

Jiang took the steamer off the pot and stirred the porridge in the pot with a round spoon.

"There are many locusts this year. Although the harvest in the fields is a little less, it is still much better than last year. I still have to help your uncle dry the harvested grain, remove the shells, and store it for the winter. By the time I finish these things at home, it will be almost the middle of next month. Then I will go to the county town to see your cousin off."

As the two were talking, Xu Yongwang's voice came from the yard.

"Aono is up."

"Dad, good morning." Xu Qingye said, taking a basin from the door and going into the kitchen to get some water. "Mom."

Jiang looked in the direction of her son, and saw that he had regained his energy and spirit with a look of relief on her face.

"Is Tang'er still not awake?"

Xu Qingye's eyebrows and eyes were gentle.

"She's awake. She said to lie down and then get up."

Jiang nodded.

"Breakfast is ready. It's just right for eating now that you've woken up." He turned to look at Nian'er and said, "Nian'er, the firewood is out. Go call Xia Ning and your cousin Wencheng back for dinner."

"Hey, I'll go right away."

Nian'er put the firewood in the stove and trotted out the door.

.

Xu Qingye entered the room carrying some water. Looking at Song Yuntang, who was still lying in the bed in a cricket pupa, he walked over with a doting look on his face and pulled back the quilt that was almost covering her head.

"Mom has already prepared breakfast. Do you want to get up and have breakfast before catching up on some sleep? I've already brought you some water for washing your face."

The girl looked at him with a smile in her eyes.

She sat up, put her arms around his neck, and leaned forward to kiss him on the corner of his lips.

"Listen to my husband."

Except for the last step last night, the two were almost honest with each other.

Xu Qingye was too tired a few days ago, and fell asleep quickly after relaxing. She stayed up for half the night before falling asleep.

Hearing the word "husband" from her mouth again, Xu Qingye's heartstrings were still touched.

After a moment, a smile appeared on his lips.

Before he met her, he had no expectations of getting married. He just felt that living alone was free and easy.

After marrying her, I had someone in my heart who cared about me, and life seemed to become more and more enjoyable.
