"You' re awake?" Qin Shizhong opened his mouth and poured the water into the water tank.
"Yes." Shen Yunwei softly replied.
"There's no need to get up early in the future." Qin Shizhong put down the wooden barrel and looked at the young daughter-in-law in front of him. Thinking about her young age and her slender figure, he wanted her to sleep a little longer.
"I' ve gotten up at home now, so I' m used to it." Shen Yunwei was still very quiet, her eyelashes trembling, still not daring to look at him.
Qin Shizhong did not say anything more when he heard this. He only called in hot water for her and poured it into the basin. Even though he did not say anything, Shen Yunwei knew that this basin of warm water was left for him to wash.
She looked at her husband in surprise. She had never imagined that such a silent and fearful man would be so considerate towards her. Country folk had lived a hard life, and firewood had to be kept for cooking. Even hot water was expensive. Shen Yunwei when she was in her family, even winter was washed with cold water. She looked at the basin of hot water and said softly," I' ll use cold water, hot water...... "This is too extravagant."
"Cold water is so cold that it's easy to get sick." Qin Shizhong spoke. He looked into her eyes and said to her," As for firewood, I' ll just chop more."
Shen Yunwei knew that he was a woodcutter. Normally, he used to cut firewood for a living, so his family naturally did not lack firewood. However, when he heard his words, his heart could not help but feel slightly warm. It seemed that he had not expected that he would treat him so well.
Seeing that Shen Yunwei was stunned, Qin Shizhong only thought that she was embarrassed to wash up in front of him. The man then left the kitchen and went to the courtyard to chop firewood.
After he left, Shen Yunwei snapped back to her senses. She looked at the basin of warm water and just as she put her hand in it, a wave of warmth spread out, as if it could warm her heart all the way.
She picked up the hot water and planned to wash with Qin Zian after entering the room. Before she left, she quietly turned around and took a look at Qin Shizhong. The man's side face looked exceptionally heroic in the morning light. His sword eyebrows were thick, and his nose was tall and straight. Although his expression was cold and cold, Shen Yunwei still felt for the first time that this Qin Shizhong, although there was a scar on his face, he was still not ugly at all. In fact, his facial features could be considered pretty. His good looks were not as good as Wang Scholar scholar's. His good looks... It was strong, masculine, and handsome like a man.
Qin Shizhong noticed her gaze and turned to look at her. The two of them looked at each other, Shen Yunwei as if someone had grabbed her for something wrong. She was startled and hurried into the room, leaving behind a slender figure that seemed to have fled.
A faint smile appeared in Qin Shizhong eyes.
Although this breakfast was an ordinary steamed bread and porridge, Qin Zian was extremely happy. It was Shen Yunwei that he had put on his clothes. Before Shen Yunwei married, Qin Zian clothes were all on his own. He often wore them in a wrong way. His heart was Shen Yunwei and he only wore the child's clothes properly, making the child feel closer to her.
Shen Yunwei drank the congee in front of her, but she saw Qin Shizhong take two boiled eggs. One was given to Qin Zian, while the other was placed in front of her. She was a little puzzled and saw Qin Shizhong say to her," Eat it."
Shen Yunwei was startled. Eggs were always popular in the farmhouse. Every family was reluctant to eat them. They had to save up to sell money in the city so that they could exchange oil for salt. Apart from the elderly and children, most people could not eat them. Even Shen Yunwei himself, only on his birthday would his mother cook an egg for her. She still had to carry her sister-in-law.
At this moment, when he saw Qin Shizhong hand him an egg, Shen Yunwei was a bit stupefied. He only said softly," I don' t need to eat it. Leave it to the child."
Qin Shizhong looked at the young lady's delicate and frail appearance and only said to her," Zi An also has it. This is yours."
Shen Yunwei looked at the Qin Zian by the side and saw that the child was eating the proper fragrance of the eggs. She withdrew her gaze and looked at the Qin Shizhong again. Her eyes were filled with hesitation. She lowered her eyelashes and whispered to him in a very low voice," You usually have a hard time going up the mountain. You should eat it. I don' t need it."
When Qin Shizhong heard this, the man's pitch-black eyes were bottomless. He looked at the young wife in front of him, his voice calm and gentle. He only spoke to her," My body is strong. You and the child will eat it."
Shen Yunwei's heart stirred when she heard this. She quietly glanced at the man in front of her and saw that he had already picked up the congee and continued to eat. His expression was calm, and he seemed to be extremely calm. It was as if Mount Tai had collapsed in front of him, so he couldn' t change his expression.
Shen Yunwei knew that to be able to leave all the good things in her family to her wife and children, such a man was worthy of trust. She looked at the egg in front of her, but from the bottom of her heart, she felt a bit soft. Although the man she married was old and had children, she knew that she was distressed. With such a man, no matter whether he was poor or rich in the future, as long as he was considerate and good to her, Shen Yunwei would feel that it was worth it.
After eating, Qin Shizhong went to the courtyard to chop firewood. After tying up the firewood, it was neatly stacked at the corner of the courtyard and piled high.
Perhaps it was because the work was getting hot. Soon Qin Shizhong he took off his outer clothes. Originally, he wanted to take off his inner clothes, but when he thought of his little wife, Qin Shizhong knew that she was thin-skinned and had just gotten married. He was worried that she would not feel comfortable, so he put on the inner clothes again. The thin inner clothes pulled out of the man's wide chest, revealing the man's strength.
Normally, there was no one in the house. He would bring his son to the courtyard with him. He worked while the child was playing by the side. Now that he had Shen Yunwei, Qin Shizhong did not bring the child out. Instead, he said to Qin Zian," Stay in the house with mother."
After he finished speaking, the man glanced at Shen Yunwei. Just as he met his gaze, Shen Yunwei heart began to panic slightly. When he recalled what happened last night, Shen Yunwei involuntarily lowered his face and did not look at him.
###Chapter5
Qin Shizhong looked at her clear and soft appearance, and his heart also moved. He could only suppress it in his heart. Their husband and wife would always be in the future. One day, this little daughter-in-law would accept him and no longer fear him.
Thinking of this, Qin Shizhong finally glanced at her. Then, he withdrew his gaze and strode towards the courtyard.
When Shen Yunwei saw him leave, his heart relaxed. The Qin Zian by the side had already surrounded him. Perhaps it was because the child was naturally sensitive, and everyone knew that he was kind. Although Shen Yunwei had just married yesterday, Qin Zian already liked her very much. The child threw himself into Shen Yunwei's arms and grinned at her. Shen Yunwei looked at the child's smile and his heart softened. He could not help but smile and caress his little face.
She washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen table. Seeing that she was doing housework, Qin Zian obediently sat to the side, playing with her clay doll. She did not bother with her. Seeing that the child was so obedient, the corners of Shen Yunwei lips curled into a smile. Listening to the sound of firewood cutting outside, Shen Yunwei eyes passed through the window and looked outside. She saw her husband waving his axe time and time again. Even just watching was enough to feel the strength he had given.
Shen Yunwei remembered that when he was at his mother's house, his mother and sister-in-law had to urge him several times every time. Only then would his big brother unwillingly go and chop some firewood, and then he had to complain bitterly to Lian Tian to say that his arm was about to break Yun Yun.
Looking at Qin Shizhong, after doing such a long job, the man never complained of pain, nor did he say that he was tired. Shen Yunwei looked at it, he felt his pain, only suppressing the shyness in his heart. He poured a bowl of tea for him and delivered it to him.
"Take a rest. Drink some water." Shen Yunwei eyes fell on his husband's body, and he saw that his inner clothes had already been drenched with sweat, revealing his strong chest.
Shen Yunwei face turned red. He hurriedly lowered his eyes and did not dare to look again.
Qin Shizhong took the tea from her hand and drank it in one gulp. He handed the bowl to his wife and heard his daughter-in-law speak to him in a soft voice," Would you be cold like this?"
"I' m used to it. I won' t." The man's voice was steady and powerful. He was Shen Yunwei worried about himself, and his eyes were filled with warmth. He only told her," Go back to the house."
Shen Yunwei nodded. She raised her eyes to look at him and saw the beads of sweat on his forehead. Shen Yunwei paused for a moment before she finally took out a handkerchief and handed it to her husband. She spat out a few words like a mosquito," Wipe it."
After saying that, Shen Yunwei carried the bowl and fled back to the kitchen.
Qin Shizhong held the handkerchief in his hand, and he saw that there was a Lagerstroemia flower embroidered on the corner of the handkerchief. It looked clear and elegant. He looked at it for a moment, but didn' t use it. He only put the handkerchief into his pocket.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Yunwei had already been married for three days, slowly getting used to the days after marriage. Even though Qin Shizhong was older than her, and his personality had also become a bit silent, just like what he had said to her on the wedding night, he was indeed extremely good to her. He had never bullied her, had barely passed her. She had never been touched by the heavy work of the family. Whenever there was anything delicious in the family, he had left it to her and the child. Although he did not like to talk, Shen Yunwei could feel his consideration and care for her every move, only allowing her to gradually accept her marriage.
At night, Qin Zian had already fallen asleep. Shen Yunwei sat in front of the bed, slightly dimming the candlelight. Hearing footsteps, Shen Yunwei turned around and saw that it was Qin Shizhong walking in.
