Chapter 22 The Scholar
Time passed little by little.

Jiang Zhiluo knew that it would take a long time to cook.

"Mom, why don't I prepare dinner first."

Mrs. Cui put a piece of firewood into the stove and said, "Zhiluo, let me cook dinner for you."

In the past, for Mrs. Cui, eating was like a task, and she had to rack her brains to figure out how to cook.

But no matter how hungry you are, the food you make will taste like chewing gum.

But since Zhiluo made two meals, Mrs. Cui only knew what food is after eating.

Even the simplest things, Zhiluo can make delicious ones.

So when Jiang Zhiluo said to make dinner, Mrs. Cui started to look forward to it.

Jiang Zhiluo shook her head and said, "It's okay, mother, I can do it myself, as long as mother helps light the fire."

Seeing Jiang Zhiluo doing things neatly, Mrs. Cui felt that this daughter-in-law was very talented.

"Zhiluo, I just put firewood in the stove, it can be burned for a while, my mother can help you do something, wash the vegetables."

Mrs. Cui couldn't bear to tire such a good daughter-in-law.

Cui Hejin has a cold temper, and she doesn't know how much she loves others. The Cui family is no longer the family of the Duke of the State. As a mother, she can only do more, so that her daughter-in-law can feel the warmth of home.

Don't let He Jin go when you can't stand it, there is nowhere to cry.

Jiang Zhiluo thought for a while and said, "Mother, why don't you pick leeks for me."

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "Okay."

Mrs. Cui only felt that she was useful when she had something to do.

Jiang Zhiluo kneaded the rough noodles in a basin with water.

Of course, some spiritual spring water was added to the water, so even the noodles made from thick noodles would taste good.

After kneading the dough, Jiang Zhiluo covered it with a clean cloth to wake up for a while.

At this time, Mrs. Cui had already picked the leeks.

Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mother, I'll go wash it."

Saying that, Jiang Zhiluo went to the yard with a basin, poured water to wash the leeks, and poured the vegetable washing water into the vegetable field to irrigate the field.

In this ancient era, water did not cost money, but it was hard work to carry water, so we could only save some water in this way.

While Jiang Zhiluo was washing the leeks, a person stood at the door, looked in and said, "Brother Cui, is Brother Cui there?"

Jiang Zhiluo heard the voice, got up and wiped her hands, walked to the gate of the fenced courtyard, looked at the young man dressed as a scholar in front of her,
This person was wearing a long gown of coarse cloth, with wide-open eyebrows and pale eyes, bronze-colored skin with a pale color, delicate and elegant with a strong bookish air, but judging by his appearance, his temperament was also a bit stubborn.

He looked like he was eighteen or nineteen years old.

Liu Tingan looked at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in front of him, and was also taken aback for a moment.

Did he go to the wrong place?
Didn't I hear that brother Cui has a younger sister?
Liu Ting'an cupped his hands and said, "Girl, may I ask which household Cui Hejin and brother Cui live in?"

Jiang Zhiluo said, "This is it."

With that said, Jiang Zhiluo yelled into the room, "Husband, someone is looking for you."

Hearing these words, Liu Tingan was so startled that he almost staggered and fell to the ground.

He just felt dizzy and thought he had heard wrong.

Brother Cui is actually married!
It was like a thunderbolt hitting him on the head.

He really couldn't accept that Brother Cui, who was so glamorous, got married.

Although the woman in front of her looked pretty, but she was wearing a coarse cloth, so she might look like a countryman.

Brother Cui is so good, how could he marry a village girl!
"Brother Cui married... Married?"

Looking at the expression of the person in front of her, Jiang Zhiluo probably understood what he was thinking.

Jiang Zhiluo saw that this person was quite shocked, did she think she was not worthy of Cui Hejin?
She just thought it was a little funny, and a sly look flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Well, we got married a few days ago, and my natal family is in the next village."

Liu Tingan's pupils shrank violently, feeling a little sad for Brother Cui.

"You... did you use tricks to force Brother Cui to marry you?"

Some time ago, Brother Cui even said that he would not get married, and he had no intention of getting married here.

That being the case, it must be the woman in front of him who forced him to submit.

Jiang Zhiluo shrugged her shoulders and said: "How can you say it's so ugly, what is using means, I fell in love with my husband at first sight, goodbye love."

"You...you..." Liu Tingan's face turned red, and he felt that the village woman in front of him was shameless and could say such words.

Jiang Zhiluo pursed her lips and said, "What are you, do you want to say that you are insulting gentlemen?"

"A scholar like you is really rigid."

"Do you think Hongxiu Tianxiang can write poetry to match a scholar like you?"

Jiang Zhiluo hugged her hands, raised her eyebrows and looked at Liu Tingan.

Liu Tingan seemed to have been told what was on his mind, and his face turned even redder, both ashamed and angry.

But he also felt that the woman in front of him was too eloquent, and he couldn't speak to her.

Jiang Zhiluo herself was not of a gentle and weak nature, if she hadn't owed Cui Hejin in that life, and she wanted to treat him wholeheartedly, she would not have such a temper long ago.

As for the other person, it wasn't Cui Hejin, so she hated as much as she should.

Cui Hejin came out of the house just in time to hear such a conversation, her expression slightly startled.

Maybe he didn't expect that the little wife, who usually looks gentle and docile, would have such a side.

And she doesn't look like she hasn't read a book when she speaks every word.

Cui Hejin couldn't help thinking.

When Liu Tingan saw Cui Hejin, he said excitedly, "Brother Cui!"

But when he thought of Brother Cui marrying a village woman, he felt a little sad for Brother Cui.

"Brother Cui, it's all my fault. I wouldn't have gone back if there hadn't been a sudden incident at home. Why did you suddenly..."

Before Liu Tingan could finish speaking, Cui Hejin interrupted him and said, "Let's go, let's go into the room and talk."

"Okay, okay, let's go into the room and talk."

Cui Hejin led Liu Tingan into the back room.

The two were talking in the back room.

After Jiang Zhiluo washed the vegetables, she also washed the fungus. These were the things her parents asked her to bring back.

After washing, she took it into the house and began to chop leeks and fungus.

There are also broken scrambled eggs, and then adjust the stuffing.

After adjusting the stuffing, put the panel on the dining table at the mouth of the stove, and start wrapping the leek box.

Jiang Zhiluo moved quickly, and a leek box was wrapped in a while.

At this time, Liu Ting'an in the house was still feeling uncomfortable and said: "Brother Cui, I don't think that village woman has a very good temper, you have been wronged."

Cui Hejin said lightly: "You think too much."

Liu Ting'an was still thinking about himself and said, "I know, she must use tricks to force you to submit, otherwise, with your talent and appearance, you wouldn't be able to marry a village woman."

"I know that the daughters of the owner of the bookstore have taken a fancy to you. Their conditions are much better than those of the villagers. You didn't agree to the good conditions they offered."

"You didn't even fall in love with the daughter of that bookshop, let alone a village woman, who doesn't even know a single word."

Liu Ting'an felt sorry for Brother Cui.

Jiang Zhiluo's hands that wrapped the leek box paused.

The scholar was talking to Cui Hejin in the house, although the door was closed, the voice was very low, Mrs. Cui couldn't hear it.

But Jiang Zhiluo has wood-type abilities, even if the ability is very weak now, but her ears are sensitive, and it is easy to hear even the smallest sounds nearby.
