After hearing what Du Wei said, Li Suniang was still very surprised. After all, there are very few people in the village who can cook. Even the three sons of Aunt Yang's family can hardly cook. The meals at home are cooked by Aunt Yang and the three daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law in turn.
"Okay, then I really want to try the dishes cooked by Brother Du in the future." Li Suniang said with a smile. It is said that men who can cook are gentle and considerate. She didn't know if it was true, but seeing Du Wei's behavior just now, Li Suniang's heart had become heavier.
Looking at the smiling Li Suniang and then looking at Xiao Zihao, who was eating beside him, Du Wei suddenly felt very satisfied. This is a family. It would be even better if the old man was here.
The old man that Du Wei was thinking about was complaining about Du Wei at home at that moment!
It was almost noon, but Lao Du still didn't see Du Wei come back. He knew that Du Wei had secretly run out today. And Lao Du was also very sure that Du Wei had gone to see his daughter-in-law. At that moment, he didn't come back, so he must have stayed somewhere to eat.
He was complaining in his heart... 'You have a meal, but you left your father at home hungry. Is that right?'
Lao Du had no choice but to cook by himself with a bitter face.
When Du Wei returned home in the afternoon, he saw his father with a sad face.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Du Wei looked at his father in confusion and asked.
"You are satisfied with the meal, but have you ever thought about me, your father?" Lao Du complained.
"Dad, this is not the first time you have eaten your own meal. When I was not at home in the past, you always cooked and ate by yourself." Du Wei felt that his father was so strange today.
"How can it be the same! Come on, tell me how the food cooked by my daughter-in-law tastes?" Lao Du's face was full of complaints and curiosity.
Du Wei smiled. It turned out that his father was just jealous that he could eat the food cooked by his future wife!
"Not bad, it tastes many times better than what you cook." Du Wei gave a thumbs up and praised.
When Lao Du heard this, he hoped even more that Du Wei would marry Li Suniang home as soon as possible, so that even if Du Wei was not at home in the future, he would not have to cook and eat by himself.
At Li Suniang's house, not long after Du Wei left, the village chief came.
"Village chief, you are here. Sit down, what's the matter?" Seeing the village chief coming to her house, Li Suniang knew that something must have happened.
"Niu Da's wife, I want to ask. You are getting married, so are you going to sell your family's land?" asked the village chief.
"No, I rented it to Aunt Yang's family. After all, this is what Niu Da left behind, and when Zihao grows up, I will give it all to Zihao." Li Suniang shook her head and said.
The village chief nodded after hearing this, that's right! After all, Niu Da still has a child left there. The child can't grow up and see that there is nothing left!
"Then your house...?" The village chief raised his head, scanned the house, and then asked again.
"House... Village chief, if anyone is willing to rent it, I will rent it out. As for selling it, I definitely won't sell it." Li Suniang said after looking up at the house.
In the countryside, the most valuable things are houses and land. How could Li Suniang sell them? Besides, these will be left to Xiao Zihao in the future, so they can't be sold.
"Okay, I know, I'm leaving now." The village chief came over and didn't even sit down to warm his chair. After asking a few questions and getting the answer he wanted, he stood up and walked out.
"Um, village chief. If someone is willing to rent my yard in the future, please let me know. I won't charge too much, one or two silver coins a year." Li Suniang said to the village chief.
The village chief nodded, indicating that he understood. In fact, he came in mainly because others asked him to ask, but now it seems that Niu Da's wife is still a bit smart.
After the village chief left, Li Suniang began to prepare the tools for the autumn harvest.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for the autumn harvest, and Du Wei came several times during this period. Now, his family has done everything they need, just waiting to marry Li Suniang at home.
So he went up the mountain again when he had some free time. Every time he went up the mountain, he would pick some ripe fruits for Li Suniang. He found that Li Suniang especially liked this kind of sour and sweet fruit.
In her previous life, Li Suniang loved to eat fruits. At that time, there were many kinds of fruits. Even in winter, she never ran out of fruits.
But after coming here, let alone eating fruits, there was not even a shadow of fruits. Therefore, the basket of wild fruits that Du Wei sent her last time made her very happy. Not to mention that although these wild fruits were a little small, they were just sour and sweet, especially suitable for her taste.
In addition to sending some wild fruits, of course, there were also meats such as pheasants and rabbits. Du Wei even hunted a wild roe deer once.
In fact, it is not that there are no larger animals in the mountains, but they are almost all in the deep forests and rarely appear in the shallow forests. If Du Wei hadn't wanted to pick more wild fruits for Li Suniang, he wouldn't have gone deep into the mountains. But he was lucky that time and actually saw a roe deer.
When Du Wei came to Li Suniang's house carrying the roe deer and the wild fruits he had just picked, Li Suniang stared at the roe deer in embarrassment, not knowing what to do. Du Wei looked at Li Suniang's embarrassed look and couldn't help but think of her expression when he once gave her a wild rabbit. It was almost the same as now, not knowing what to do.
At that time, he didn't understand what Li Suniang meant by this expression. It wasn't until she told him while holding the rabbit that she didn't know how to do it that she remembered that for a woman, plucking chicken feathers was okay, but dealing with those bloody things was indeed a bit difficult for her, so Du Wei helped her deal with it later.
Du Wei also dealt with the roe deer. However, because the weather was still relatively warm, the roe deer was not like small animals like rabbits, and there was only a little meat after peeling the skin.
In the end, some were kept at home, and the rest were given away by Du Wei. Aunt Yang's house, Aunt Cuihua's house, and Aunt Ma's house where Li Suniang went to catch Wangzai last time. In the end, Du Wei also sent some to the village chief, so a roe deer was solved.
Du Wei told Li Suniang that there were still wild persimmons in the mountains, but they were not ripe yet. When they were ripe, he would pick some for her.
In the blink of an eye, it was autumn harvest. Because many people were helping, Li Suniang's grain was quickly harvested. Because God was kind this year, the harvest was pretty good.
After the autumn harvest, it was the day for Du Wei and Li Suniang to get married. This day was something Du Wei had been looking forward to for a long time.
Before dawn, Aunt Yang and her daughters-in-law came to Li Suniang's house. Because Li Suniang had no family members to help, Aunt Yang's family acted as her family members.
After a busy day, everything was finally done at dawn, and they were waiting for Du Wei's sedan chair to arrive. It didn't take long before the sound of gongs and drums and suona came from outside. The sedan chair of the Du family had arrived. So Big Brother Yang carried Li Suniang on his back and sent him to the Du family's bridal sedan, and Xiao Zihao also got on the sedan at the same time.
Originally, Aunt Yang wanted to let Xiao Zihao stay at her house for two days on the wedding day, and then let Li Suniang come and take him to the Du family three days later. But when Du Wei found out later, he said that it was not necessary to make such a fuss. Since he had decided to treat Xiao Zihao as his own child in the future, how could he only want the mother of the child but not the child when getting married? So he said that on the wedding day, Xiao Zihao and Li Suniang would ride in the sedan to his house together. At that time, it would be a lie for Li Suniang to say that she was not moved. She really didn't expect Du Wei to have such a big heart. Just based on this, Li Suniang decided to be good to Du Wei in the future. "Hurry up, hurry up, the bride's sedan chair is here." Someone shouted. After a while, the sedan chair stopped, and then a hand lifted the curtain in front of the sedan chair, first holding Xiao Zihao down, and then holding Li Suniang's hand to get off the sedan chair. After Li Suniang got off the sedan chair, the matchmaker stuffed one end of the red ribbon into Li Suniang's hand, and the other end was in Du Wei's hand. Du Wei was holding Xiao Zihao in one hand and holding the red ribbon in the other hand, with a smile in his eyes that he couldn't hide. "Come on, young lady, watch your feet, you have to cross the fire basin, hey...right." The matchmaker supported Li Suniang and reminded her from time to time. "Oh, look at that boy Du Wei. This young widow really knows how to choose people." Someone behind him whispered, with a tone full of envy. In fact, when they saw Du Wei carrying Xiao Zihao out of the sedan chair, they were envious. "First bow to heaven and earth, second bow to parents, husband and wife bow to each other, and send to the bridal chamber." As the chanter shouted, Li Suniang was quickly supported by the matchmaker and sent to the bridal chamber. Li Suniang, who was wearing a red veil and sitting upright on the edge of the bed, finally breathed a sigh of relief and secretly massaged her waist, which had been straight and without rest since morning. In her heart, she muttered, 'Oh my God! It's finally done. Getting married is really tiring. She will never do it again in the future.' But now she is also a family person, and there will be someone to protect her in the future, which makes her feel a lot more at ease. Little did she know that she and the matchmaker were not the only two people in the room at this moment. Du Wei also followed in with Xiao Zihao. When Du Wei saw Li Suniang's little action, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. "Hold on, I'll be back soon. I'll let Xiao Zihao stay with you." Du Wei leaned close to Li Suniang's ear and whispered. After hearing Du Wei's voice, Li Suniang stopped what she was doing. Her face was a little hot, and at that moment, she was glad that she had a red veil on her head. She nodded slightly, and at the same time, Xiao Zihao reached out and held her hand. "Here, fill your stomach first. Zihao said you haven't eaten since this morning." Du Wei stuffed two pieces of pastry into Li Suniang's hand and said. Li Suniang didn't feel it before Du Wei said it, but now that he said that, she really felt a little hungry. She was a little embarrassed to take the pastry and then urged Du Wei to go out quickly. She was afraid that if he didn't go out, someone would come and laugh at him. Du Wei didn't want to go out at all, but there was no way because there were so many people outside for him to greet, especially the large group of people in the escort agency, at least a dozen or twenty people. After Du Wei left, Li Suniang handed a piece of cake to Xiao Zihao, but Xiao Zihao didn't take it. Instead, he pushed it to her and whispered, "Mom, you eat it. I've already eaten it." After hearing Xiao Zihao say that he had eaten, Li Suniang quietly ate the cake alone. However, Matchmaker Ye had not spoken since she came in. She just watched silently. At this moment, she was just thinking in her heart, 'This man who looks fierce and cold on the outside has such a tender side. It's really unexpected. The young lady in front of her has found the right person.'
