Li Xiao looked left and right, but his sadness found that there was not even a stool in the room except for the bed.

Maybe it's been too long.

Wan Niang saw that Li Xiao didn't move for a long time, so she couldn't help but lift the corner of her red hijab.

"Husband!"

"Sister Wan."

"Husband, you should call me a lady." Wan Niang simply lifted the hijab, he had been back for so long, but the two had no chance to speak alone. At this time, seeing that he still called himself Wanmei, she couldn't help but correct it.

Since they are already husband and wife, they should be commensurate with husband and wife.

Li Xiao wanted to say wait a minute, but when he saw Zhao Wan's tender appearance, the words were blocked in his throat. How could he be that careless man, how could he use cold words to refuse her years of waiting.

That's hurtful.

"I still like to call you Wanmei, as if it was the same as yesterday."

Wan Niang smiled, very satisfied with this answer.

"Xiaolang, come here, I want to take a closer look at you, I don't have a chance to take a serious look during the day!"

Li Xiao had no choice but to move his feet and come to the bedside.

Zhao Wan stretched out her hand and pulled Li Xiao to her side, although this action made her heart pound, but thinking that he was her husband, she felt a lot bolder.

Seeing Li Xiao sit beside her, her face turned redder and her heart became sweeter.

"Xiaolang, you pinch me."

"Do what?"

"I feel like I'm in a dream, I'm so scared it's just a dream, pinch me."

Li Xiao smiled and stretched out his hand, gently touching the back of Zhao Wan's hand that was holding his other hand, he didn't pinch her, he was reluctant to pinch this lovely and poor woman.

Zhao Wan bit her lower lip very hard.

Her lip was bitten and bleeding, and she frowned and laughed instead.

"Pain, it's not a dream."

"Fool, of course this is not a dream, I am here, I am back, I will not go anywhere, and I will always be here in the future."

"Xiaolang."

Zhao Wan's gentle call, this call is a beautiful invitation.

Li Xiao saw the fiery invitation in her eyes clearly, but she couldn't respond.

"You're so beautiful today!"

Li Xiao looked at her face, in the dim light and shadow, Zhao Wan's eyebrows were clear, although she was a little yellow and hungry, but her foundation was still good, this is a tall woman, and she is only eighteen this year.

Goose egg face, the bridge of the nose is very straight, the eyebrows are very slender, and the eyes are large.

With the long neck, this is very in line with the aesthetics of thinness as beauty in later generations, especially in dim light, which can cover up dull skin, hazy and very three-dimensional.

"Sister Wan, you must have suffered a lot in the past few years, tell me about it."

Zhao Wan has endured a lot of hardships in recent years, and she has a difficult life with the name of a widow on her back, especially when she encounters great changes in the Li family.

As soon as the conversation box opened, she couldn't control it anymore.

Li Xiao sat at the head of the bed, Zhao Wan snuggled in his arms, he put his arm around her shoulders, she said, and he responded from time to time.

Occasionally, Li Xiao also talks about his experience outside.

········

The rooster crows three times!

It's dawn.

I don't know when, Zhao Wan finally got tired and fell asleep unconsciously. She snuggled into Li Xiao's arms and fell asleep, sleeping very steadily and peacefully, and even made a whirring sound like a kitten.

His arm was very sore, and Li Xiao never fell asleep.

Although I'm a little sleepy, to be honest, I hugged my sister all night, and even she fell asleep in her arms, so completely unguarded, so completely trusted, how could I sleep.

Zhao Wan in her sleep was still hugging Li Xiao tightly, for fear that he would run away.

When the day dawned, Zhuangzi also woke up from the tranquility.

Li Xiao heard Dr. Zhao's coughing outside more than once, obviously on purpose.

The noise became louder and louder, and from time to time people from the village came to greet Mr. Zhao, and when they got to the back, almost everyone came.

looked down at Zhao Wan in her arms, this girl had actually woken up, but she was still pretending to be asleep.

Li Xiao knew that she must be embarrassed, especially now that there were so many people outside.

"If you don't get up, the sun will come in." Li Xiao reached out and scratched her nose.

Zhao Wan finally couldn't break down anymore and burst out laughing.

"Xiaolang, you are so bad!"

As she spoke, Zhao Wan buried her face in Li Xiao's arms while hammering him with her fists.

But the two small fists are more like tickling.

After joking for a while, Zhao Wan was embarrassed to break free from Li Xiao's embrace, last night, on the night of the candles in the cave room, I didn't expect to say something all night, and even fell asleep later.

I was both happy and a little disappointed.

"Everybody's waiting for us outside." Li Xiaodao.

········

When they sorted out their clothes and went out, everyone smiled at the couple.

Especially some men and aunts, there were bursts of laughter unique to those who came over, Li Xiao didn't care, and Zhao Wan was very embarrassed.

As a result, they couldn't walk the way, and they almost fell, but fortunately, Li Xiao reacted in time to help him, but Zhao Wan's reaction made them make a louder sound, as if to say that we understand, we understand, we understand, we all understand.

Doctor Zhao even said with a little relief and a somewhat reproachful tone, "Young people should not be greedy for fun, and they should pay more attention to their bodies." ”

Zhao Wan blushed even more, and couldn't help but blame her father.

"I'm going to cook!"

After speaking, Zhao Wan left the hall as if she were fleeing.

Breakfast was simple, millet porridge with soup cooked with pork liver.

Cut a little pork liver, then put half a bucket of water, add a little salt, and cook into a large pot of pork liver soup. In Li Xiao's opinion, there is too little pork liver, which is like soup, but everyone drinks it with relish and calls it delicious.

Li Xiao felt that as long as he put some salt in the water, boiled it again, maybe threw two stones in it and boiled it, they would all say that the soup was delicious.

Originally, the villagers were embarrassed to come to eat again, but Li Xiao said that everyone will be a family in the future, whether it is a few families here in the past, or the dozen or so people he brought later, the next forty or so people will be a family.

The families also have no savings and grain, so they will start together this winter, and Li Xiao will be responsible for the food.

The big pot of rice tastes lively and delicious.

Even if it's drinking porridge, it's very feeling.

"After eating, wait for Uncle Biao and a few of me to pick up the batch of cucumbers, wait for us to receive the cucumbers, pick some people to sell them on the street, in the county and in Chang'an, and sell the money from these cucumbers, and then buy grain first, and buy enough surplus grain."

After Li Xiao drank the porridge, he assigned tasks to everyone who was full of expectations, which also gave everyone more peace of mind.

There is food at home, and there is no panic in the heart.

"As for the rest, they will clean up the house, get some thatch bark, repair the roof, and get some mud to paste the earthen walls."

"Good!"

followed San Lang to have a full meal, and everyone was very obedient to Li Xiao's arrangement.
