Cheng Shubai and Su Xiaoxi's safe return made everyone feel relieved.

It was getting late now. Father Cheng and Mother Cheng had been worried all night and were already exhausted.

Brother Cheng and Brother Cheng had gone a long way to find Cheng Shubai and Su Xiaoxi. Now that they had relieved themselves of their burdens, both of them looked a little sleepy.

Seeing this, Cheng Shubai quickly told everyone to go to bed.

After everyone dispersed, Su Xiaoxi knew that Cheng Shubai had something to say, so she asked him, "Where are you going? To the study or to my room?"

When Cheng Shubai heard this, he felt a little blushing.

He pointed to the study and said: "The study is remote, let's go to the study to talk."

Su Xiaoxi nodded and then followed him to the study.

The candles in the study were not extinguished. After the two of them entered, Cheng Shubai closed the door.

Watching Cheng Shubai close the door, Su Xiaoxi felt a strange feeling in her heart for some reason.

Thoughts began to swirl in my head.

"You sit on the bed." Cheng Shubai said.

Su Xiaoxi sat down beside the bed, while Cheng Shubai moved a bench over and sat down opposite her.

"Ms. sir, what exactly happened to you today?" Su Xiaoxi got to the point directly.

Cheng Shubai frowned and said seriously: "On the way back to the medicine shop from Yi Mansion, I met Wang Facai, and he tied me back."

When Su Xiaoxi heard this, she jumped up from the bed: "You said Wang Facai kidnapped you? Where did he get the courage? He didn't do anything to you, right?"

Seeing her nervous look, Cheng Shubai couldn't help but said, "I'm fine. Look, I'm not talking to you properly."

"Fortunately, you're fine. If something happened to you, I would definitely blame myself to death."

She lowered her head with a look of remorse on her face, grabbing her clothes like a child who had made a mistake.

Su Xiaoxi felt that she had offended Wang Facai and that Wang Facai could not do anything to her, so she thought of venting her anger on Cheng Shubai.

If there was anything wrong with Cheng Shubai, her conscience would definitely be disturbed.

Seeing the self-blame on Su Xiaoxi's face, Cheng Shubai quickly said with relief, "You don't need to blame yourself. Wang Facai kidnapped me to go to the house not because of your affairs, but because he wanted me to attend the Qiu Wei Festival on his behalf."

When Su Xiaoxi heard this, she looked surprised: "He actually wants you to attend the Qiu Wei Festival for him. Have you agreed?"

"I agreed." Cheng Shubai opened his thin lips and said.

Su Xiaoxi was surprised for a moment, but then she thought about it. If Cheng Shubai didn't agree, how could Wang Facai let him back?

But Cheng Shubai agreed to help the king make a fortune and participate in the Qiu Wei. What about Cheng Shubai's Qiu Wei?Is it possible to wait another three years?

Then wouldn't she have to stay in the Cheng family for three more years?

It's not that she doesn't want to stay, and the longer it goes, the more reluctant she will be to leave Cheng Shubai.

And she also wants to help the original owner find her biological parents.

However, she felt that everything would be fine if Cheng Shubai could save his life, and she did not dare to expect too much.

Just wait three years.

Just when she had figured it out, Cheng Shubai suddenly said: "But I promised him falsely."

"Ah?" Su Xiaoxi's clear eyes were shining. She blinked and asked, "You pretended to agree to him? What if he troubles you later?"

It's not like Wang Facai doesn't know this place. If he comes here at that time, I'm afraid the entire Cheng family will suffer.

Cheng Shubai took out a piece of paper from his wide sleeve and handed it to Su Xiaoxi.

Su Xiaoxi opened the paper and looked at it carefully, only to realize that it was a contract.

Cheng Shubai looked at a contract and said: "I have this. I specially asked Wang Facai to sign the contract with me. When the time comes, he will not be able to default on the debt. I will go to the Yamen to report to the official tomorrow morning. The court always attaches great importance to Qiu Wei, Wang Facai With such disregard for the law, the county master will not let him go."

"So that's it, I thought you really agreed." Su Xiaoxi patted her chest.

"However, Wang Facai promised me that if I took the exam for him, he would give me 100 taels. He gave me so much that I was a little shaken." He said with a smile and said to Su Xiaoxi: "Suddenly I regretted it. How about I promise him, this 100 taels will be enough for us to buy a better house in the town."

Su Xiaoxi was amused by his serious and joking look, "You can't. I know that my husband, you are not the kind of person who is blind to money!"

"Then what kind of person am I in your eyes?" Cheng Shubai took the opportunity to ask.

Su Xiaoxi held her chin, thought for a while and said: "In my eyes, my husband is the kind of person who is as gentle as the moon, gentle as jade, erudite, knowledgeable, ambitious, and will definitely become a good official for the country and the people in the future. !”

Su Xiaoxi clearly remembered the words described in the author's book, but her general meaning was similar.

"Do you really think so?" Cheng Shubai looked at Su Xiaoxi with a smile and asked.

"It's not that I think it is, but that's the kind of person you are!" Su Xiaoxi did not hesitate to praise Cheng Shubai.

Cheng Shubai's Qingjun face showed a bright smile, and he said with a bit of shyness: "I didn't expect that one day, you would use so many beautiful words to describe me."

Before thinking about it, Su Xiao's favorite adjectives had never been applied to him.

And he didn't understand the lofty ambitions in his heart. He didn't expect Su Xiaoxi to understand.

He felt surprised and relieved in his heart, and suddenly said: "You are not Su Xiaoxi."

Su Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment and stumbled: "I...yes, I am Su Xiaoxi!"

Before, Cheng Shubai was not sure whether the person who had been by his side was Su Xiaoxi, but until just now, Cheng Shubai was very sure that the person in front of him was definitely not Su Xiaoxi.

He had been with Su Xiaoxi for nearly two years. She was lazy and uneducated. Although he didn't know whether the original Su Xiaoxi had any medical skills, one thing he was sure of was that the former Su Xiaoxi really despised him from the bottom of her heart. .

Not to mention saying such nice words, nor trying to understand him or understand him!

And the current Su Xiaoxi and the previous Su Xiaoxi are completely two people.

She is hardworking and enthusiastic, knows how to please people, and knows many things. The key point is that her attitude towards herself is completely different from before.

Cheng Shubai said: "Although I don't know where the original Su Xiaoxi went and how you got here. But I feel very lucky to have met you!"

Su Xiaoxi was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to explain.

Seeing that Su Xiaoxi didn't speak, Cheng Shubai continued: "You don't need to explain, I understand. It's good to be like this."

"Don't worry, I will definitely pass the exam and become a good official who serves the country and the people. You won't have to work so hard in the future. All the salary I earn will be handed over to you." After saying that, Cheng Shubai gently held Su Xiaoxi's hand. .

Su Xiaoxi felt moved when she heard what he said.

But when she thought that Cheng Shubai would meet his seventh princess later, her enthusiasm was suddenly extinguished.

"Okay." Su Xiaoxi only replied with one good word.Because there were too many variables in the future, she had no way to tell Cheng Shubai what she saw about their future.

Cheng Shubai's dark eyes were filled with smiles and hope, and he held Su Xiaoxi's hand a little harder.
