General, Your Wife Wants You to Get Out - C53
In the next few days, Su Zhi ran around everywhere. She worked hard to find the source of the goods, so she had to find time to look after the decorations of the shop. She was so busy that she couldn’t care less about home.
A Jin was a good girl, she would help take care of Little Dou. Su Zhi was not worried about her two children.
But when she was busy, she often came home late.
In order to prevent the two little fellows from starving, Su Zhi could only spend some silver to ask the neighboring Aunt Bai to cook.
Aunt Bai refused and generously took the two children to her house, saying that it was a matter of one more person with two chopsticks, so she didn’t need to take the silver. Moreover, the two children didn’t eat much, so it wouldn’t cost them much food.
Su Zhi was grateful to the neighbors she had met in Xuancheng. She sent a lot of gifts to Aunt Bai’s house, and then went to her shop a few times.
The cost of modifying the store was huge, so he quickly ran out of six or seven hundred liang of money from his previous earnings. In addition to the deposits he received from various stores, he was almost unable to make ends meet.
That night, Su Zhi returned late as usual.
The autumn was getting thicker and heavier.
Su Zhi sat in the carriage and wobbled back to Spring Leaf Lane. She got out of the carriage and paid the driver, and just as she was about to open the carriage and return home, she heard a burst of rustling sounds.
She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall and thin figure. It was He Qiniang, who was wearing very thin clothes.
In his hand was a bottle of incense, which was obviously poured with dirty water at night.
“Seventh Madame.”
Su Zhi gently called out to him as a form of greeting.
He Qi Niang also saw her and ignored the friendly greeting. She only glared at her venomously.
Those eyes were extremely cold and merciless. There wasn’t the slightest bit of emotion in them, as if they were silently cursing their enemies.
Su Zhi shivered as she lowered her head, took out her key, and hurriedly entered the room.
The weather gradually turned cold. There were people selling leather mattresses on the market.
Su Zhi walked around, stopping to rest. She also hurried the well-dressed children for a few moments, thinking to make cloaks for the two children, then make a few pairs of knee guards to send to Aunt Bai’s house next door as a way of thanking her for taking care of the two children.
The small room was lit by a weak kerosene lamp. A Jin was fast asleep with her arms wrapped around a small bean bag.
Looking at the two children’s innocent and cute sleeping faces, Su Zhi felt a warm feeling in her heart. Even after running for a whole day, she still felt particularly motivated.
Since he had some free time, he needed to hurry up and do some needlework.
It was already dark outside, and they would report the hour soon.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
At first, Su Zhi did not pay much attention to it. She thought it was the sound of the door being blocked by the wind, but after listening to it, she felt that something was amiss.
She started to get nervous, wondering who was coming this late.
She put down the fur mattress, got up, and pushed open the door to the front yard. There was a sharp knock on the door.
“Dong Dong Dong!”
“It’s so late, who is it?”
The knocking on the door stopped, and someone answered, “I am Li Wuyou, for the destruction of my wife’s roof. A change occurred on the way, I hope you can forgive me for being late. ”
Su carried a paper lantern and looked behind her. A large piece of the roof had collapsed, and she suddenly thought back to what Auntie Liu had said before.
They seemed to have been destroyed by two martial arts competition and had also promised to send money to repair it. However, no one had come back yet.
It was just that it was not appropriate to let a man whom she did not know enter the house at this late hour. Su Zhi thought for a moment, then replied, “It’s late, Young Master, please go back.”
The knocking on the door completely disappeared, and the person replied, “Sorry for disturbing you.”
Then he threw a heavy cloth bag into the yard, stood on tiptoe with his sword on the tip of his toes, and jumped on the cypress tree by the gate. He leaped into the trees farther away, and in the blink of an eye disappeared into the night.
Su Zhi hesitated for a moment before she went forward and picked up the cloth bag. When he brought it into the room, he saw by the candlelight that it was a gold ingot.
She was so scared that she quickly covered her purse. Seeing that there was no one around, she tremblingly opened it and took another look.
Lately, he had been doing well. A few days ago, he had met a fool, but tonight, he had met another one who paid his debt.
That night, Su Zhi hugged the gold as she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. The taste of being rich made her feel uneasy.
At dawn, she quietly got up to prepare breakfast for the two children.
Halfway through the cooking, he heard someone knocking on the door again.
It was early in the morning, and no one knew who it was.
She dried her hands and went to open the door. She peered through the crack in the door and asked, “Who is it?”
“Broken Cloud Villa, Flower Melting.”
When Su Zhi opened the door, she saw a man standing outside. His hair was as smooth as ink, and his hair was tied up in a casual bun. His face was like an autumn flower, shining like a peach.
If not for the Adam’s apple on his neck, Su Zhi would never have thought that he was a man.
“Who is this young master?”
That person’s eyes were squinting as he chuckled, as though he was the shining sun. His eyes were sparkling, captivating the hearts of those who looked on with excitement.
Beautiful!
He had the honor of seeing a beauty smile so early in the morning. He could even eat a few more bowls of rice.
“I am Hua Li.”
‘A thousand seductive flowers, light soluble moon ‘, just like its name, worthy of the word’ flower dissolving ‘.
“Then why did young master come this time?”
She took out a gold ingot and gave it to her, explaining, “This was the money to repair your house during the last martial arts competition. Take it.”
Su Zhi stared wide-eyed at the gold ingot and waved her hands in panic, “No, no, there was also a young master who came last night, saying that he came to repair the house for the money. Now that I have accepted it, there is no need for Young Master to give it back. ”
Hua Yan was slightly startled, then said suddenly: “Oh, so you have already come. But it doesn’t matter, he’s him, I’m me. ”
With that, he handed the gold ingot to Su Zhi.
Just as he was about to push her away, Jin’s voice came from behind, “Mom!”
“A Jin woke up.”
Oh no. There was still porridge in the pot.
Su Zhi didn’t bother to refuse and quickly ran back to the kitchen like a wisp of smoke.
When she came back with the porridge, A-Jin had already dressed sensibly and was helping the small bean bag to get dressed.
The man called Hua Xuan had not left yet, so Su Zhi could not give the order to leave.
“It smells so good. Can I eat it?”
The man rubbed his stomach and stared eagerly at the pot of porridge.
“Young master, if you don’t mind, let’s eat together.” Young master, if you don’t mind, let’s eat together.
“Alright, thank you, little lady.”
Lonesome Flower revealed a breathtaking smile as he sat down and started to fill his bowl with porridge.
Su Zhi was secretly glad that she had accidentally made too much congee today. Otherwise, it would not be enough to eat.
Suddenly, a furious roar came from outside the door.
“Flower Soluble!” Come out for laozi! I’ve chased you for so long, but you’re actually hiding in someone’s home like a cowardly bastard! ”
The spoon in Su Zhi’s hand trembled as she suddenly looked out of the courtyard.
He saw a black-clothed man walk in with a sword aura that was filled to the brim.
“Young Master is again?” Su Zhi frowned and asked.
“I am Li Wuyou!”
It was the Lord who came to deliver the gold last night.
“Wa woo woo ~”
The small bean bun seemed to have been frightened by the man’s murderous aura and drilled into Su Zhi’s embrace while crying.
Seeing this, Hua Xuan scrunched his eyebrows and said unhappily, “Wu You, look how you scared this child is.”
“Ah, sorry, little lady.”
Seeing that the child was crying, the menacing man immediately withdrew his stinky face and stood helplessly in the courtyard, not moving at all.
A Jin looked at the two of them, her eyes filled with curiosity and caution.
“Lonesome Flower, come out.”
“I don’t want to. After chasing me for a whole night, you should be tired now, right?”
“If you don’t come out, then I’ll go cause a ruckus at the Broken Cloud Villa!”
The man eating the porridge shrugged, “Then go, what else can you do?” You want me to really pretend to be a girl and marry you? I admit that I was being too much of a joke, and that I shouldn’t have lied to you using a woman’s outfit. I’ve already apologized, what do you want from me? ”
It sounded like a private matter between two grown men. Or … A dispute?
Su Zhi was a little confused. She probably understood that Hua Xuan had tricked Li Wuyou after returning to be a woman in uniform. The latter must have been real, because when she found out that the other party was a man in disguise, she became angry and chased after him, refusing to let him go even after he went to the ends of the earth.
My enemy! If the two of them continued to fight, the house would not be demolished.
“You two, it’s better to be calm than to fight. If there really is anything you don’t want to say, then please go to the open space in front of the house. I can’t take this any longer and am afraid of scaring the child.”
Huaxue nodded, and leisurely ate the porridge while taking a piece of pancake to leave.
It was unknown what he said to the black-clothed gongzi outside, but in short, the two of them left.
