Chapter 260 The Sickly Cannon Fodder in the Period Literature 20
*
Xu Xingzhou carried Yun Wu into the main house, but he did not turn off the lights in the house in a hurry.
As the night deepened, every household in the village turned off the lights and went to sleep, except for the light in the main house of the Xu family, which was still on.
Yun Wu finally understood that what Xu Xingzhou said about his great strength was true.
She continued to cry, and cried until late at night.
Then she fainted and she had no idea what happened in the second half of the night.
The next day, Yun Wu didn't wake up until the afternoon. It was not because she was lazy, but because she was too tired. She only opened her eyes drowsily in the afternoon.
Just at this moment Xu Xingzhou walked in from outside. He was wearing a navy blue sweater and had a tall figure with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.
Xu Xingzhou was holding the freshly prepared meal in his hand. Yun Wu had just woken up and looked at Xu Xingzhou with hazy eyes.
However, the sleepiness disappeared in the next second, and the misty eyes suddenly became shy and embarrassed.
When Yun Wu saw Xu Xingzhou coming over, she clutched the big red wedding quilt covering her body and pulled it over her head, trying to cover her head in a way that made it even more obvious.
"Why are you hiding from me?"
Xu Xingzhou's voice was low. He strode to the bed with the food in his hand. He first placed the food on the bedside table and then sat down on the edge of the bed.
He raised his hand and easily pulled the quilt off Yun Wu's head.
Yun Wu was revealed hiding under the quilt. Her black hair was a little messy, and her pink nightgown was loose, revealing a few...
There was a hint of shyness and embarrassment in her sparkling eyes.
"I...didn't hide..."
Xu Xingzhou wrapped her in a quilt and held her up from the bed, then reached out and casually tidied up her messy hair.
He wondered how his little wife could be so cute, soft and cute, crybaby and cute.
Xu Xingzhou then took a cup of warm water from the side and put it to Yun Wu's lips, feeding her some little by little.
"Why are you so tearful? You cried non-stop yesterday."
He said it bluntly, which made Yun Wu's face turn even redder, and caused Xu Xingzhou to lean forward and give her a good kiss.
Speaking of crying, Xu Xingzhou couldn't help but think of the scene at that time, when the object made of very little cloth was hanging on his shoulder.
Yun Wu's eyes and nose were red, with pitiful tears at the corners of her eyes, and she looked miserable.
As Xu Xingzhou thought about it, his Adam's apple couldn't help but roll twice, but seeing Yun Wu's timid appearance now, he no longer thought about bullying her again.
"You've only eaten two mouthfuls of porridge since last night. Are you hungry?"
As Xu Xingzhou spoke, he brought over the food from the bedside table. They were all Yun Wu’s favorite dishes.
He saw that Yun Wu was sleeping too deeply so he didn't disturb her to rest, but he still got up early and left the land of gentleness to buy a lot of vegetables first.
Then he was busy washing clothes, sweeping and mopping the floor, and cooking. Just when he came in with the food, Yun Wu had already woken up.
"fine……"
Yun Wu's voice was soft. She raised her hand and touched her stomach. Looking at the delicious food in Xu Xingzhou's hand, she felt a little hungry.
But the fact that she had only eaten two mouthfuls of porridge from last night till now... Yun Wu couldn't help but blush.
She vaguely remembered that Xu Xingzhou seemed to have cooked some porridge and brought it in early in the morning, and she also remembered...
He fed her the porridge while coughing. She was very sleepy at the time and didn't want to eat anything, so she only took two mouthfuls of the porridge before resisting.
"Eat some food first."
Xu Xingzhou said as he scooped up half a spoonful and put it to Yun Wu's lips.
She originally wanted to come by herself, but when she thought of how excessive Xu Xingzhou was, she ate the food Xu Xingzhou fed her with a slightly red cheek and a clear conscience.
"Go into the kitchen less often in the future. I'll do most of the cooking. Otherwise, if you hurt your hand, you'll cry and cry."
Xu Xingzhou said without question. He said that not because he thought Yun Wu was not good at her job, she could also cook and wash clothes, but Xu Xingzhou just didn't want her to do these things.
The young wife he married was a pampered girl, weak in body and weak in temper. If she suffered a little injustice, she would only feel sad by herself and would not be willing to complain to others. She would continue to work even if she cut her hand while cutting vegetables.
So Xu Xingzhou simply didn't let her do those housework. His young wife was delicate and weak, so she should be well taken care of. If she was busy with household chores all day long, she would suffer.
He was different. He was strong and ate a lot. When he was not doing farm work during the day, he would just sit back and do what he needed to do.
Then let Yun Wu "pay him wages" at night, hehehe...
"What are you thinking about?"
Yun Wu's soft voice came, and Xu Xingzhou came back to his senses. He clenched his fist and pretended to cough twice, then continued to feed her.
"Nothing, just eat well."
Xu Xingzhou spoke seriously, and his bright and handsome facial features showed a serious look.
Yun Wu looked at him suspiciously, but still obediently ate the spoonful of food he fed her.
Xu Xingzhou is really good at cooking, which surprised Yun Wu. The dishes he cooked were so fragrant that Yun Wu couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
When the whole bowl of rice was finished and only a little bit was left, Yun Wu touched her bulging belly and shook her head timidly.
"I'm full, I really can't eat any more..."
"it is good."
Xu Xingzhou didn't ask her to eat more. He sat on the bed and picked up the remaining rice in the bowl and ate it all himself.
Yun Wu's pink lips slightly opened, but she blushed and said nothing. She had eaten that before...
But she felt that even if she told him, Xu Xingzhou would not change.
"My eldest brother came by at noon and brought some bacon and vegetables. You were sleeping very soundly and hadn't woken up yet."
"My brother has been here?"
Yun Wu asked softly. She didn't know what she was thinking of, and then she asked quickly:
"What did you say to my brother at that time?"
"I asked you if you were still sleeping and asked if I should wake you up. My brother said no, he just wanted to deliver something and asked me why I wasn't awake yet."
Xu Xingzhou's voice was low, and he continued with an honest look on his handsome face:
"I said, it's my fault, there won't be a next time..."
"I knew it, you—"
Yun Wu blushed so much that she stammered and pointed at Xu Xingzhou's nose, wanting to say something, but what he said sounded as if there was nothing wrong with it.
She just felt a little embarrassed, but she blamed Xu Xingzhou for staying in bed so late. It was all his fault!
He'd better keep his word and not go too far like this again.
Otherwise she would cry in front of him, then pack her bags and go back to her brother and sister-in-law's house to sleep overnight!
