Chapter 14 Warmth

The marriage was settled. Wang Dayi breathed a sigh of relief. He was going to pick up Xu'er the day after tomorrow, and time was still tight.

I went to the town this afternoon and bought all the things. I will deliver the things there tomorrow, and the next morning I will have to go to the village chief to write a document to prove that the two are married. Then I can bring Xuer back.

After thinking about it step by step in his mind, Wang Dayi felt at ease. After having lunch in a hurry, Wang Dayi took the money and went out.



"Eh? Why are you here?" Yang Xu saw Wang Dayi when he went out.

"I'm going to town. Is there anything you want? I'll bring it to you."

"I have nothing to bring, please be careful on the road."

I'm going to marry him the day after tomorrow. What else do I need to buy? There's no one at home anymore, so I have to carry the things I bought there.

Moreover, Mrs. Lin also told herself that Wang Dayi would pick her up one day later. She did not expect it to be so soon, but everyone in the village was like this. There was nothing to prepare, so she would just pick someone up.

"Here you go." Wang Dayi handed over a money bag.

"What did you give me the money for? Aren't you going to town?"

Yang Xu was puzzled. He knew that the betrothal gift Lin wanted was more than he expected, but it was not too much. Wang Dayi agreed without saying anything.

But the betrothal gift also costs money!

"I still have something with me. Here's it for you. Take it and use it. You might need it. If not, just keep it."

Yang Xu was really moved by this man. He knew that he had no money, so he gave it to him just in case.

"good."



"Hey, Dayi is here, what good things did he catch again?"

"This time I'm not here to sell game, I'm here to buy pork. I need two catties, and pack each catty separately."

"Okay. Do you want to give this away?"

Shopkeeper Li opened a butcher shop, which not only sold meat, but also collected meat, selling whole pigs like pig farmers, or prey caught in the mountains like Wang Dayi.

However, hunters rarely come to buy meat, so I asked Wang Dayi.

"Well, I'm getting married, and buying meat is a betrothal gift."

Shopkeeper Li saw Wang Dayi's rare smile and knew that he was very satisfied.

I know something about Wang Dayi to some extent, and I am happy for him now that he has a wife.

I chopped a few more ribs and gave them to him.

"It's not worth much, but the ribs are good for making soup. It can be your wedding gift."

"Thank you, shopkeeper. I will accept it."

Wang Dayi did not postpone it. It was a happy event, so he took it. Next time he brought prey, he would just order less.

Six kilograms of rice and noodles, one kilogram of pork and one kilogram of sugar. Wang Dayi did not buy more, as they were all given in bags. He only bought an extra kilogram of cooked peanuts and a kilogram of candied dried apricots.

If someone is here, give it a little, and it will look festive.

It was almost dark when Wang Dayi came back. When he arrived at Yang Xu's house, he was a little hesitant. It was too late. Wouldn't it be a good idea to find her? Then he thought about the things in the backpack, so he went up and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" Yang Xu didn't rest, after all, it was still early.

"It's me."

Yang Xu raised her eyebrows, why is this person here again? I don't mean to dislike him, I just feel like I want to laugh. They got married in just two days, and they came here twice in one day. Really, it's a bit funny.

Yang Xu still opened the door for him and didn't invite him to sit at home. It was too late and inappropriate. After all, they were not married yet.

"I bought some things. I'll give them to you first. I won't be here tomorrow."

Yang Xu's hair was draped over her shoulders before it was even dry after washing. It looked very beautiful.

Wang Dayi touched her nose in embarrassment. She had good hair, but the hairpin she chose was just average. She would definitely buy a better one in the future!

Yang Xu looked at him stuffing a bunch of things one after another, and was a little dumbfounded. This person seemed to be like this every time, always stuffing things for himself.

"What? This is such a big pile." There seems to be some cloth?

Yang Xu looked through it and found that there were actually cloths, one in pink and one in blue. The cloth was soft, not the coarse cloth that people in the village were accustomed to wearing.

And peanuts and candied fruits?

Yang Xu touched a wooden box at the bottom and looked at Wang Dayi with questioning eyes.

"Open it and take a look."

Yang Xu opened it and saw that it was a silver hairpin with a lotus flower carved on it.

Yang Xu felt a little sad. This hairpin was not very exquisite, but she knew what it meant here. The slightly richer families in the village were like her cousin's family, and her cousin only had a copper hairpin!

This silver hairpin is probably going to cost this man his entire family fortune.

Wang Dayi was a little nervous when he saw Yang Xu staring at Chai Zi without saying anything.

"Don't you like it?"

"I like it, I really like it. Did you, a fool, spend all your money on this hairpin?"

"As long as you like it, no, no, I have saved some money over the years, and I still have it at home!"

There are no good silver hairpins in the town, so I spent a long time choosing this one before settling on this one. I will give her better ones in the future!

I did spend a lot of money, probably more than half of what I had saved. I would earn the money later, but this was the only time I got married. I wanted to give her good things.

"I bought this fabric to make clothes for you. There is also Tianbao's. And the dried peanuts and apricots. If someone comes to visit, you can use it to entertain the guests. I bought a lot, you and Tianbao will eat first."

He hesitated for a long time, fearing that the size of the ready-made clothes would not be suitable, and he did not choose the style. So he simply bought a piece of cloth. He originally wanted to buy a bright red color, after all, he was getting married, but then he thought that pink would also look good.

Not too showy. In the end, I chose pink color.

"It looks good. I'll go back and ask my cousin for help. I can get a whole set of clothes out in a hurry."

This man is really attentive and considerate. He has prepared everything for him. He is afraid of treating himself badly. He buys this and that for himself, but nothing for himself.

Yang Xu felt very guilty. She was now impoverished and wanted to give him something, but she had nothing.

"Well. Then I'll go back."

"By the way, here are the ribs for you. It's good to make soup. Tianbao is still growing. Drink more bone soup and you will grow taller."

"You can take it back and eat it yourself. We won't be able to finish it. We haven't finished the meat you brought last time."

"It's okay, it's not much, it's all bones. I have a lot of meat at home."

"Okay, okay. Then I'll cook them all tomorrow." Yang Xu said with a helpless smile.

"Okay, then I'm leaving. You should go into the house quickly!" Wang Dayi also smiled softly.

"Okay. Be careful on the road."

"Um."
