During the day, he was busy striking iron, and at night he was busy writing test questions silently, and soon it was the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the day of sweeping the dust and sacrificing the stove.

Zhu Yuenuan and Li Yuniang were cleaning in the shop, outside the door, there was the sound of a carriage, Li Yuniang immediately stopped, walked quickly to the door, and said, "Could it be Tong'er?" ”

Zhu Yuenuan turned her head to look at it and smiled.

"It's really Tong'er!!" Li Yuniang rushed out excitedly.

Zhu Yuenuan couldn't help but be surprised, and followed her out.

Sure enough, there was a carriage parked outside the door, and Chu Yitong had just gotten out of the carriage and was saying goodbye to a handsome son.

That handsome boy was a head shorter than Chu Yitong, with red lips and white teeth, and a slender body, if he was a man, he would really look thinner.

The moment Zhu Yuenuan saw this person, her eyes suddenly condensed.

At this time, the handsome boy turned his head and saw Zhu Yuenuan, his eyes were facing each other, he smiled at Zhu Yuenuan, and raised his hand to salute.

Chu Yitong noticed his actions, turned around, and saw Li Yuniang and Zhu Yuenuan, and his smile bloomed: "Mother, Nuan Nuan, I'm back." ”

"Tong'er, let me take a look!" Li Yuniang rushed up, pulled Chu Yitong up and down, and after a while, her eyes were red, she raised her hand and touched Chu Yitong's hair, and said with emotion, "It's dark, and it's strong." ”

"Mother." Chu Yitong was obviously helpless, and smiled at the handsome son, "Let Brother Qin Xian laugh." ”

"No, motherly heart, Brother Chu is so blessed." The handsome boy shook his head with a smile, his gestures showed a sense of elegance, and after that, he slammed Li Yuniang to the ground, "Qin Yue has seen Aunt Chu." ”

Zhu Yuenuan stood in front of the door. She was still holding a feather duster in her hand, dressed in red, but she was wearing a cyan apron, which added a bit of fireworks to her brightness.

"Qin Yue" got up and slammed to the ground in the direction of Zhu Yuenuan: "This must be the sister of the Zhu family." Brother Chu's wife, right? ”

"It's clumsy." Chu Yitong tilted his head and smiled gently at Zhu Yuenuan.

When Zhu Yuenuan heard this, she inexplicably relaxed her slightly frowning eyebrows, stepped forward with a light smile, and was blessed: "Gongzi Qin is polite." ”

"Gee, don't stand in the doorway and talk. Tong'er, please sit in Qin Gongzi's house and have a cup of tea, the tea brewed by the moon is fine. Li Yuniang at this time. All kinds of worries and depression disappeared, and he greeted happily.

"Thank you, aunt, it's just that I just came back, and I haven't returned home yet, I'm afraid that the family will be in a hurry, and I'll come to visit my uncle and aunt another day." "Qin Yue" politely declined, and smiled at Chu Yitong. "Yu Zhi, I'll go back first, don't forget the appointment between you and me."

Let's talk about it. also glanced at Zhu Yuenuan deeply, turned around and got into the carriage, and left slowly.

"......" Zhu Yuenuan looked at the back of the carriage silently.

Li Yuniang had already snatched Chu Yitong's luggage, pulled him to the shop, and shouted at the top of her voice: "Tong'er, his father, Tong'er is back!" ”

Chu Yitong was full of smiles. Pulled by Li Yuniang into the door, when she passed by Zhu Yuenuan's side. Looking sideways at Zhu Yuenuan and smiling: "Nuan Nuan, why don't you come in?" ”

"Here we are." Zhu Yuenuan came back to her senses and followed.

"The moon is warm. Give me this. Entering the yard, Li Yuniang snatched the feather duster in Zhu Yuenuan's hand and stuffed the luggage to her, "Put this away, hurry up and boil some hot water, wash Tong'er well, by the way, make a cup of tea first, this way, even if there is a carriage, it is also very tiring." ”

"Mother, I'll do it myself." Chu Yitong gave Zhu Yuenuan apologetic look and said with a smile.

"It's okay, you go and rest for a while." Zhu Yuenuan took a look at Li Yuniang and went back to the house with her things.

came out again and went to the kitchen to make tea, Li Yuniang was pulling Chu Yitong to sit outside the iron shed, shouting excitedly while roasting the fire on the stove.

Zhu Yuenuan brought tea and consciously went back to the kitchen to prepare lunch, glancing out from time to time, uncertain.

Li Yuniang's interest continued until night, Zhu Yuenuan had cleaned the house inside and out, and the meals for Chinese New Year's Eve were almost prepared, and the family sat together.

"Eat more, it's made by Yue Nuan, it's delicious." Li Yuniang sat down, picked up the chopsticks and put the vegetables in Chu Yitong's bowl, and in just a moment, they were piled up.

Chu Chongzhu didn't say anything, only raised his chopsticks and put a piece of braised pork ribs into Zhu Yue's warm bowl, and said with a smile: "The eldest daughter-in-law has been really hard these days, eat more." ”

"Thank you, Daddy." Zhu Yuenuan smiled and thanked him.

"Mother, it's time to eat, what do you have to say, can't you talk about it when you're free?" Chu Erbing was a little unhappy and watched the table full of dishes being moved around by Li Yuniang, "You are like this, how can we all eat?" ”

"I'm not afraid that your brother won't eat well in the academy, look, it's all dark and thin." Li Yuniang stopped at this time.

"It's just a little bit, it's much better than the white girls before." Chu Erbing pouted and said.

"Stinky boy, how do you speak? How can anyone say that about his brother? Li Yuniang scolded with a smile, but quieted down.

After eating, I heard that Chu Yitong's returning neighbors came to greet him, and Zhu Yuenuan made no less than twenty cups of tea back and forth, and finally sent those enthusiastic neighbors and relatives away.

Chu Yitong finished washing first, then went to the hall to talk to Chu Chongzhu and Li Yuniang, and gave the room to Zhu Yuenuan, until the bangzi rang on the first watch, Zhu Yuenuan cleaned up himself and the room, and Chu Yitong came back.

However, Li Yuniang also chased in worriedly.

"Mother, what are you doing?" At the door, Chu Erbing shouted, "Sister-in-law has been busy all day today, what do you have to say to my brother tomorrow?" At this time, do you still let your brother and sister-in-law rest? ”

Zhu Yuenuan covered her face, pretended not to hear, and unconsciously cleaned up her dresser.

Li Yuniang came to her senses at this time, leveled the quilt neatly, glanced at Zhu Yuenuan, and said with a smile: "Then you should rest early." ”

"Mother also rests early." Chu Yitong was sent to the door.

"Rest early." Li Yuniang also gave a word of advice in the courtyard.

Chu Yitong nodded, watched Li Yuniang being dragged away by Chu Erbing, and closed the door.

Only Zhu Yuenuan and Chu Yitong were left in the room, and without the chattering Li Yuniang, the whole room was quiet all of a sudden.

Chu Yitong stood by the door. With a warm smile, he stared at Zhu Yuenuan.

Zhu Yuenuan raised her hand and stroked her hair a little uncomfortably, pursed her lips for a while, her eyes rolled a few times, and then she seemed to think of the topic, and said, "Yu knows ......"

"Huh?" Chu Yitong responded gently. Slowly approach.

"Have you ever received a reply from you before?" Zhu Yuenuan looked for a topic and walked to the table in the room.

"I received it, but because of his busy schoolwork, Brother Qin Xian mentioned yì, anyway, the return date is coming. It's better to surprise you, so I didn't reply. Chu Yitong said softly, staring at her carefully.

"Why are you still with him when you have received the letter...... Come back together? Zhu Yuenuan was puzzled.

Chu Yitong heard this. Confusion appeared on his face, but he still explained: "The schoolwork was completed ahead of schedule, and I also passed Mr. Feng's exam, Brother Qin Xian, like me, happened to meet Xiling Town in Brother Qin Xian's family, so Brother Qin Xian invited me to come back with me, what's wrong?" ”

"Where's that reply letter from yours?" Zhu Yuenuan looked at him steadily. After he finished speaking, he directly spread his hand, "Let me see." ”

Chu Yitong was puzzled. But he still went to find the letters, and his letters were all sandwiched in a book that he often reads, and when he opened it, it was all Zhu Yuenuan's handwriting.

"Here." found the last one and handed it to Zhu Yuenuan.

Zhu Yuenuan hurriedly took it and hurriedly disassembled it. The word is indeed hers, but it is the one that helped the second elder back later.

"Just this one?" Zhu Yuenuan raised her head and stared at him.

"That's it." Chu Yitong nodded. Again, he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The letter was given to you by a scholar from the college? Or did you go and pick it up yourself? Zhu Yuenuan's face was solemn. Ask.

"Brother Qin Xian helped me bring it." Chu Yitong was still strange, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"This one is the reply that my father-in-law and mother-in-law asked me to write, but what I want to say is missing." Zhu Yue raised the thin piece of paper in her hand and frowned.

"However, when I got the letter, the seal was not ......opened," Chu Yitong looked surprised and shook his head, "Impossible, Brother Qin Xian is a gentleman, he won't ......"

"Are you sure he's Brother Qin Xian and not Sister Qin Xian?" Zhu Yue sighed, calmly folded the letter, and gave it back to Chu Yitong, "Qin Shiyu only has a younger sister, not a younger brother, and besides, he also told me personally that his sister was dressed as a man in Daishan Academy. ”

"Nuan Nuan, you must have misunderstood." When Chu Yitong heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Brother Qin Xian also said that he and Brother Qin are just cousins, not a family. ”

"What did he say?" Zhu Yuenuan was stunned.

"Yes." Chu Yitong nodded and said with a smile, "Nuan Nuan, I thought before that it was not difficult for you to study in Daishan Academy in the name of Liyang, but now I am curious, how did you survive, Daishan Academy is completely different from Zhiyu, both civil and military, and attaches great importance to morality and righteousness. ”

"Daishan Academy was originally no different from the other place, and now it is like this, it is still the credit of my uncle, at the beginning, in order to implement these courses, he took nine of a lot to have today's situation, the reason why I entered Daishan Academy in the name of Liyang, and also went to take the exam, is because I helped my uncle." Zhu Yuenuan poured two cups of tea and handed one to him, this narration reconciled the atmosphere and no longer the embarrassment of silence.

Chu Yitong took the tea, but put it on the table again, and easily held Zhu Yuenuan's right hand, spread out her palm, lowered her head and looked at it carefully, and rubbed her fingers lightly: "When I went to Daishan Academy, I knew that it was not easy for you, and I also understood that you had wanted to marry yourself before and stay away, like you, I am afraid that there are only a handful of women in the world, and they are open-minded, and they have long been not inferior to men such as me, but they are ...... Come to think of it, it's also my Chu family who wronged you, tired of you working so hard. ”

The finger scratched the abrasion on the palm, although the wound had already healed, but the shallow scar was still there, plus the hard work of this time, it also left marks on the hand, and the thin callus was clearly visible.

His sudden action made Zhu Yuenuan freeze suddenly, glanced at him secretly, bit his lower lip slightly, slowly withdrew his hand, covered his chest and turned around to avoid his gaze.

"It's not early, go to bed." Zhu Yuenuan hid directly in her bed, and even left the topic she had just discussed behind.

Chu Yitong looked sideways at her actions, and after a long time, he looked down at his hand, smiled dumbly, and blew out the light to rest.

I don't know how long it took, in the dark, Chu Yitong's voice sounded low: "Nuan Nuan, there are not many women like you in the world, and Brother Qin Xian is just Brother Qin Xian, rest assured~~" (To be continued)
