Perhaps because Old Madame Xu was too cautious when she said this, even Ye Shuo was shocked by her appearance and couldn't open her mouth to speak for a long time.

Seeing Ye Shuo's expression, Old Madame Xu looked at him and said: "But you don't have to worry too much, us elders will always protect you guys."

Old Madame Xu did not lie as she thought in her heart. If such a day really came that she would risk her life to protect the juniors in her family.

Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu did not know about the conversation between the Old Madame Xu and Ye Shuo within the Main Yard. After returning to the Shihuan Courtyard, Dong Shu started to think about what other things she was good at besides the favorite dishes of Ye Shuo and Xu Yanzhu at noon tomorrow.

As for Xu Shiqiu, he was deep in thought while pinching the letter his sister wrote him.

When Dong Shu decided on the dishes she would make tomorrow and washed up to prepare to rest, she was still sitting there thinking.

"Husband, are you still thinking?" Dong Shu watched as Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, and when saw that he had turned to look at him, Dong Shu then continued: "If there's anything you want to say, think about it tomorrow? I'm tired, I want to rest. " After saying that, Dong Shu even intentionally ripped off her collar and winked playfully at Xu Shiqiu.

When Xu Shiqiu heard that he was tired, he had already prepared to get up. However, he did not expect that his Young Girl would actually do such a thing to him.

He forcefully swallowed the saliva in his mouth, then looked at Dong Shu and raised his brows: "This is what you invited your husband for, you can't say that your waist is hurting later on." After saying that, Xu Shiqiu immediately threw down the letter in his hand, untied his sleeves, and walked towards Dong Shu.

"Husband, go take a bath first." Dong Shu blinked her eyes. After seeing Xu Shiqiu finish speaking seriously, he did not forget to add: "I'll wait for you here." As he spoke, Dong Shu even reached out to pat the bed.

Seeing Young Girl make such a gesture, Xu Shiqiu took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and then walked towards his ear with large strides. "Cui Hua, bring me some water quickly."

Xu Shiqiu's actions were extremely fast, how could he still remember in his mind what his sister wrote to him in the letter? His entire mind was filled with the scene of Young Girl tearing his collar just now.

Dong Shu, who was obediently sitting on the bed and waiting for her husband, still had not realized how attractive her actions just now were to Xu Shiqiu. She simply thought of something simple and didn't want her husband to continue sitting there foolishly.

She wanted to sleep with her husband!

When Xu Shiqiu returned, his hair was still stained with water that had not been dried yet, but he was not willing to wait any longer. He directly put on a thin layer of muslin and came out of his ear room, then threw himself onto the bed where Dong Shu was waiting for him.

"Hubby, hubby, don't be in such a hurry!"

"Hmm? I'm in a hurry! "

Dong Shu had thought that as long as Hubby was no longer sitting there foolishly, but she had forgotten that the two of them had not been together for a few days.

After an unbridled night, when he woke up the next day, Xu Shiqiu was suddenly enlightened.

He had been through so much, afraid of this and afraid of that, but he had never really asked Young Girl about it.

His Young Girl was so good, even if he wouldn't be a general in the future, what was there for him to be afraid of?

After understanding all this, Xu Shiqiu got up in high spirits. However, Dong Shu, who did not have any strength left last night, slept for another hour. When Cui Hua came to the big kitchen to report the meat and vegetables that she wanted, she got up.

Dong Shu stood up and rubbed her waist for a good while before she finally had the strength to stand up. After serving him for a long time, she could tell with a glance what Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu did last night.

However, she was a qualified servant. She would never ask, never ask, never say anything that she was not allowed to say.

"Madam, the meat and dishes delivered by the kitchen have all been roughly processed. The servants all look fresh and tight, so they must have thought it through." Cui Hua watched as Dong Shu finished speaking, and after sending in the hot water, she tidied up the bed, and then prepared to carry the bed sheets and the other things to leave. "Madam, this servant will be going to fetch Mister Shi and his wife, I can't help you today."

Dong Shu took a look at the bed sheets and other items that Cui Hua was carrying, and with slightly red cheeks, she said: "It's fine. After saying this, the warmth on Dong Shu's face slowly faded, "You should go out a bit slower. If something happens, don't be afraid, we will definitely support you."

"Don't worry, Madam. Your servant knows this very well." Cui Hua understood that Madam was referring to her family members. Now that she had Old Madame, she was naturally not afraid, "Then this servant will go to do some work first. After saying that, Cui Hua bowed and left.

After Cui Hua left, Dong Shu slowly got up from the chair and walked out.

On the outer room's round table was the breakfast that Cui Hua had just brought up. It was Dong Shu's and her favorite meal.

Just as Dong Shu was about to sit down by the round table, Xu Shiqiu, who had finished his morning practice, washed up and returned to the main house.

"Cui Hua went to fetch Mister Shi?" Xu Shiqiu looked around the room but did not see Cui Hua. He then asked Dong Shu and then looked at the breakfast on the table, then suddenly remembered that Young Girl had to cook for Ye Shuo and Xu Yanzhu today, "Later you will cook less dishes, if you don't, get the kitchen to send you some."

"It's okay, I only cooked a few dishes and this is the first time your nephew has come to visit. As my aunt, I will definitely cook some dishes to entertain him." Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu who was serious, and saw that he was still unhappy, she continued: "Hubby, just help me do some more things later, when the two of us are together, we will definitely finish it quickly."

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Shiqiu had no choice but to give up the idea of letting the big kitchen send the food over, and agree to her cooking for Ye Shuo and Ye Shuo.

Today, Dong Shu prepared to cook the Red Braised Meat that Ye Shuo liked to eat, and also prepared the stir-fried vegetables that Xu Yanzhu liked to eat. There, Dong Shu prepared to cook the Red Braised Meat that Ye Shuo liked to eat, and also the stir-fried vegetables that Xu Yanzhu liked to eat.

"Master, for the four of us to make four dishes and a soup, isn't that a bit too little?" Dong Shu looked at the ingredients brought over by the kitchen, and calculated in her heart, that she would probably be able to cook another two or three dishes, "How about I make all of these dishes?"

"No need!" How could Xu Shiqiu bear to see the Young Girl suffer so much? He glanced at the ingredients sent over by the large kitchen, then looked at Dong Shu and said: "My wife, you should make more of each dish, there's no need to cook so much."

After saying this, Xu Shiqiu was worried that Dong Shu would be unhappy so he added: "Think about it, if we are not in Xu Family right now, we would just be normal farmers. Can't you make so many tricks with your relatives at home? You can only make more for each dish. "

"Hubby, what you said makes sense." Every time, Dong Shu would easily be persuaded by Xu Shiqiu because of this reason. The key thing was, she felt that what he said was extremely reasonable, "Then, let's do it according to the method that you said, hubby."

The vegetables in the early summer had become more numerous, and he no longer thought that there were only a few vegetables in the early spring.

Moreover, Dong Shu had said yesterday that she would treat Ye Shuo to a meal.

Even the slightly older servants knew Ye Shuo's identity.

With these people's reminders, the kitchen was naturally diligent in preparing the ingredients, afraid that it would embarrass the Xu Family and cause the imperial family's heir to be dissatisfied with the food.

Of course, what they wanted to do most was to personally eat, but after hearing that Ye Shuo wanted to personally eat the food made by him, they could only focus on preparing the ingredients.

Other than the three dishes previously mentioned, when Dong Shu saw that the spring leek was not bad and there were even eggs sent here, she prepared to use the spring leek to fry eggs and cook fish soup.

Dong Shu did as Xu Shiqiu said. Although she only prepared four dishes and a soup, the quantity of each dish was very sufficient.

Although Ye Shuo was now the age where 'a half-grown boy can eat his father's guts', the dishes today were still enough for him to eat.

"Third aunt, the dishes you made are really delicious." Ye Shuo ate happily. When he was in the Crown Prince's Palace, although he ate delicately, every dish seemed to have lost his soul, and although the current dishes looked like normal farm food, it made his appetite rise.

"Third aunt, this fried egg with leek, it tastes really good, much better than the one cooked by my family's chef."

Ye Shuo originally said that he liked eating meat, but today, other than the vegetables that Xu Yanzhu liked to eat, he ate a lot of the other three dishes and one soup.

Especially this green spring leek with golden egg pieces that he was not very interested in at first.

"This spring leek was cut in the morning. It is fresh and tight. Recently, it has become a good time to eat spring leek. I don't know if you like to eat dumplings, if you like, with this spring leek dumpling, is also very fragrant. After Dong Shu finished speaking, she thought for a while before continuing, "Actually, there are still a lot of things that we can eat in the village, it's just that we don't have much food at home, but I have eaten quite a bit before."

Dong Shu did not try to cover up the fact that she was a normal peasant girl and that she was living a bad life.

Seeing that Ye Shuo was serious when he said these words, he immediately added a bit more.

Xu Shiqiu sat like this as he listened to Young Girl's smiling face as he talked about the interesting things he had done in the past.

"The mulberry should be ripe soon. In the past, we would always go to the village to find mulberries to eat. As long as we can find one that is ripe, we will be happy for a long time." Dong Shu's eyes lit up as she said this, thinking back to the delicacies she had eaten in the past. After she swallowed the saliva in her mouth, she continued, "In the past, if there's anything that's not finished, I'll secretly heat it up and leave it for later on to eat slowly."

As Dong Shu spoke, the images were indeed captivating, but what moved Ye Shuo wasn't the mulberry that was very difficult for her to eat, but the happiness.

Free and unrestrained, running around the entire village with a group of friends of his age. If one wanted to climb a tree, one would climb one at a time, and one would definitely not be scolded by his seniors for being impolite.

The more he thought about it, the brighter Ye Shuo's eyes became. He took a glance at Dong Shu, whose eyes were shining as well, and said to Xu Shiqiu. "Third Uncle, since Third Aunt likes it this much, why don't you bring us out to take a look?"

The moment Ye Shuo saw that Xu Shiqiu had finished speaking, Dong Shu immediately looked towards Xu Shiqiu in anticipation, thinking that it would be great if Hubby could bring him out!

"It's not impossible for me to take you out." Xu Shiqiu didn't have the intention to lock Dong Shu up at home all day. He also understood that Ye Shuo's age was the age where he wanted to run out the most.

"Not today, though." Xu Shiqiu saw that after Dong Shu finished speaking, the two of them had expressions of disappointment, and then, he said: "Cui Hua will be back to pick up Mister Shi, so I have to wait for Mister Shi at home. So I thought, today you guys should get ready at home, and tomorrow morning I'll take you guys out for a day? " After saying that, Xu Shiqiu looked at the silent Xu Yanzhu.

"Third Uncle, I won't go out." After Xu Yanzhu avoided Xu Shiqiu's gaze, she said: "As long as Third Uncle takes Third Aunt and Cousin Shuo out, it will be fine."

Ye Shuo was originally excited about Xu Shiqiu agreeing to take him out to play, but who knew that he would say such words in the next moment.

"Cousin, Third Uncle will definitely accompany Third Aunt tomorrow, is it not good for you to be with me at the same time?" Ye Shuo did not know about what happened with Xu Yanzhu. He only felt that there were five masters in Xiahe Village and that since his grandmother was old, she would definitely not do such things. Her cousin was only a few years older than him, so she would definitely like it too.

Cousin Shuo, my cousin still has matters to attend to tomorrow. Xu Yanzhu did not want to explain, but she insisted on not going out.

This made the originally happy faces of Ye Shuo and Dong Shu somewhat sad.

Seeing that the Young Girl was sad, Xu Shiqiu then looked at Xu Yanzhu and said: "Yanzhu, are you unwilling to go out because you want to marry someone?"

"What? Cousin wants to get married!"
