Huang Yixiao followed behind Jiujiu like a loyal hound. Whenever Jiujiu took out a ruler, he would stand properly. He would do whatever Jiujiu asked him to do and obediently let Jiujiu take his measurements.
Jiujiu was considered tall among girls, but compared to Huang Yixiao, she was still one and a half head shorter. When Jiujiu measured Huang Yixiao's body, her head happened to be near Huang Yixiao's heart. From Huang Yixiao's angle, it looked like Jiujiu was leaning in his arms. Huang Yixiao's heart heated up. He raised his hand and pulled Jiujiu into his arms.
Caught off guard, Jiujiu was suddenly pulled into Huang Yixiao's arms. Her body struggled subconsciously, but her struggle was like a drop of water in a pot. It instantly ignited all the heat in his body.
The anger in Huang Yixiao's heart was completely ignited in an instant. He felt all the blood in his body rushing to his waist and abdomen. He wanted nothing more than to hold Jiujiu in his arms right now.
Huang Yixiao suppressed his anger and lowered his head to look at Jiujiu.
Because of his abruptness, Jiujiu's cheeks were burning red. She weakly covered her chest with her small hands. Her white and tender little fingers were like little radish heads. Huang Yixiao wanted nothing more than to put her ten fingers into his mouth and suck on them one by one to see if he could suck out juice.
Huang Yixiao raised his hand and pinched Jiujiu's waist. He lifted Jiujiu up and placed her on his lap. The two of them faced each other. Huang Yixiao's cheeks gradually turned red. Looking at Jiujiu's big eyes that were filled with shyness, Huang Yixiao swallowed his saliva subconsciously. His tone became nervous.
"Jiuniang, I …"
Huang Yixiao didn't feel anything when he picked up Jiujiu just now. Now that Jiujiu was quietly looking at him with her eyes as clear as spring water, Huang Yixiao's words were stuck in his mouth. Especially when he realized that his actions were too abrupt, Huang Yixiao's courage dissipated in an instant. His eyes were filled with guilt.
Huang Yixiao subconsciously turned his head away, not daring to look at Jiujiu. His lips moved, but he couldn't say a word. His guilty look made Jiujiu somewhat moved.
Jiujiu raised her hand and gently held Huang Yixiao's cheek, making him look into her eyes.
Huang Yixiao had a strong body and tough appearance. At first glance, he was a tough man...... but at this moment, like a shy little girl, avoided his eyes and did not dare to look at Jiujiu.... Like a shy little girl.. Jiu's face's face was covered covered covered '...
Huang Yixiao was shy.
Huang Yixiao's actions just now were too bold. In this isolated ancient time, it could be called bold. Jiujiu thought that Huang Yixiao was a man who didn't care about etiquette. But now, seeing Huang Yixiao's flushed face, Jiujiu understood that Huang Yixiao was still a shy and conservative ancient man.
Jiujiu's hand gently held Huang Yixiao's chin. Huang Yixiao lowered his head because of shyness. If one didn't look carefully, it would seem that Jiujiu was teasing Huang Yixiao.
Amused by her own thoughts, Jiujiu gently let go of the hand holding Huang Yixiao's chin. But the moment she let go, Huang Yixiao suddenly raised his hand and wrapped it around Jiujiu's hand. He raised his head. Although his eyes were still a little shy, they were full of affection. "Jiuniang, don't worry. I will treat you well."
He was obviously well-versed in literature and poetry. But when he saw Jiujiu's eyes, he couldn't say a single word of those flowery words. In the end, he could only say this simple sentence.
Huang Yixiao's face turned even redder. He looked at Jiujiu with apprehension. He was good at talking in front of others. Why was it that when he met Jiujiu, he instantly became a pot of boiling dumplings and couldn't pour out a single one?
Huang Yixiao's cheeks were red and his eyes were shy. He was obviously a tough guy, but at this moment, he was inexplicably cute.
Jiujiu pursed her lips and looked at Huang Yixiao's red cheeks due to shyness. She smiled gently and said, "I believe you."
Although time would reveal a person's heart, sometimes one could tell a person's character just by interacting with them for a short while. Huang Yixiao treated her wholeheartedly from the very beginning. He would rather suffer than be willing to do anything for her. It could be seen that Huang Yixiao treated her wholeheartedly. Moreover, Huang Yixiao knew how to repay kindness. If his family treated him well, he would give his heart to them.
Therefore, Jiujiu was willing to believe Huang Yixiao. If he became successful, he would naturally treat their family well.
Looking at Huang Yixiao's resolute but shy face, Jiujiu pursed her lips and said with certainty, "Brother Huang, I believe you."
Jiujiu's trust made Huang Yixiao's cheeks even hotter. He lowered his head and carefully kissed Jiujiu's cheek. He couldn't hide his shyness and said, "I, Huang Yixiao, swear to the heavens that I will never let Jiuniang down in this life. If I violate this oath, I will be struck by lightning five times and die a horrible death."
Jiujiu raised her hand to cover Huang Yixiao's lips. "Brother Huang, you don't have to do this. I believe you."
Huang Yixiao gently kissed Jiujiu's finger that was covering his lips. "Jiuniang, it's so good to have you."
Huang Yixiao gently leaned his head on Jiujiu's shoulder. The two of them hugged each other quietly, and the atmosphere changed from ambiguous to warm.
After all, the two were not married yet. After hugging for a while, Huang Yixiao got up and left.
Soon, it was the busy farming season. Both Huang Yixiao and Chen Zhangsheng were busy harvesting the wheat.
Harvesting wheat naturally had to be done every second. Chen Zhangsheng and his wife had more land. Because there were only two of them, they couldn't wait to soak in the fields three times a day and not come out. The task of cooking naturally fell on Jiujiu. Not only did she have to cook for Chen Zhangsheng and his wife every day, she also had to deliver food to Huang Yixiao.
Huang Yixiao's family didn't have much land. He finished his own business in one day and went to help Chen Zhangsheng and his wife the next day.
Huang Yixiao was tall and strong. The way he wielded the sickle was like the wind of a tiger. It didn't take long for him to harvest a large area of wheat, leaving the people working with him behind. The neighbor who was harvesting wheat with Chen Zhangsheng and his wife couldn't help but sigh when he saw Huang Yixiao working so hard. "Huang Yixiao is really good."
His daughter was married. It was a pity that a married daughter was like spilled water. After marrying, she belonged to the family. His family was so busy, but his daughter couldn't help.
Not to mention having a son-in-law come over, even when their daughter cooked for them, the in-laws' opinions were flying everywhere. Although at the beginning, everyone said that Chen Zhangsheng wanted to marry Jiujiu to Huang Yixiao because his daughter's reputation was bad, now that they looked at it, Huang Yixiao was working so hard even before they were married. Moreover, he did not look aggrieved at all. It was obvious that he was willing to do it. Looking at it this way, so what if their daughter married well? She would not be able to bring any benefits to their family.
